i read somewhere that you open the file under the pda button.

this is what i'm looking at once i've plugged in my phone, opened odin n found the file.



do i now click 'start' n cross my fingers?

Found a Guide
According to the guide one more file needed Called "Cooper"

will that cooper file work with my phone? the s5830i an s5830 are different phones n the flash for one will rape the other

[Brigante]

the odin i've got is different to the one in that guide. mine doesnt have the 'one package' option.

I'll download the odin from the guide now, is it safe for my phone though? in the file name it says its for the s5830

The Cooper.OPS file is required for flashing all phones The .TAR file is the firmware

[Brigante]

nothings ever simple mate, downloading the cooper file, it is a text file not a .ops file, even though it's called Cooper_v1.0.ops so therefor i can't load it into the odin as it's not an ops file

[Brigante]

also, does my phone need to be turned on, off, or in download mode etc? or doesnt it matter

[Preee]

You downloaded the 5830I firmware, from Sammobile , thats the firmware it will install, all the guide is showing is the basic steps needed.

The Cooper V1.0.OPS is a required file for ODIN

You follow Step A , missing out Step B

Click on the Cooper.OPS text in the guide , and use the Password to unlock mediafire download , password is also in the guide

[Brigante]

I know mate this is what i'm doing

i've got the odin from the guide, i've got the relevant firmware from sammobile, i've followed the steps in the guide n i'm ready to do it. but the download of the cooper file appears to be wrong as it downloads as a .txt file, not a .ops file so i can not load it into odin

i've used the password also

[Preee]

It downloaded as an OPS file for me , all i did then was rightclick on it and UNLOCK it under properties as its a windows shell file

Thats your problem you should not open it , just download it.

I have added it to a zip file above

[Brigante]

that was default as i clicked download mate, but then if i change it to save file it still saves as .txt

thanks for the zip

getting there now
