Root Reinstall android on Samsung Galaxy mini s5507I

[george18]

Hello every one,
I have a galaxy pop plus (usually known has Galaxy mini s5507I). I had Ginger Bread(2.3.6) on it. the internal memory was not enough for me, so i went on to root and delete some stoke apps tat i didn't need. but then i found a new update for my phone, i tried to update it but every time the installation goes up to 27% then fails. don't know the reason, now i want tat update, i cant get it. I even tried Factory reset. nothing so far gave any gud results. If any one can help me out to make my phone new just out of the box, i ll be really greatful. thanks in advance....

Generally, rooting your device will block any OTA updates, especially if you have Clockwork Mod Recovery installed. If you're looking to take advantage of the update, you'll need to unroot.

Try flashing a stock ROM via Odin .
SamMobile Firmware Page .
Search for you phone (S5570 or it's variant) and download the appropriate variant for your country.
Odin Flash Guide in case you want one

The second links has the flash guide by samsung which gives you step by step process of restoring bricked phone .
CWM is a custom recovery .It needs to be flashed if you want to install CyanogenMod .

now the problem tat i face is, odin doesn't detect my mobile....

 

[george18]

is there any way i can install android again.... i am losing hope... :vollkommenauf: :afraid:

Thats strange .Odin should detect your phone . Are you in download mode ?
If KIES is running in background then close it .
The only way to restore your phone is in download mode via Odin

ya... i am in download mode. and i don't have tat stupid kies. it never worked. any way. i think i have got to the root of the 'not detected problem'. last night i made a really stupid thing, i went and uninstalled the driver for galaxy pop plus. i think tat might prevent odin form detecting my phone. do you think so... if so wat can i do..

thank you so much for your help

Well you need drivers to run Odin .you will need to reinstall Odin drivers .without drivers ,pc wont be able to detect usb connection.

where do i get them (what you call) odin drivers...

thank you so much for your help...

 

[karandpr]

If you have win 7 then drivers are automatically installed when you connect you phone and run odin
Else install kies ....
Honestly I cant say for sure.

 

[george18]

am very sorry for pestering you like this.... but i don't know any other way... am really really really sorry...

actually i run a server version of windows, i do some website designing and stuffs so i use it has a work station.

and kies doesn't seem to work properly, so i uninstalled it. and i am trying to install it again..... lets see...

 

[george18]

i seem to have a problem... the ops file that i have is for s5507 not for s5507I, and the odin keeps saying check your image file.... can any one help me get a ops file for s5507I. and still no luck on odin detecting my phone... i installed all drivers, windows detects my phone perfectly, but odin doesn't.... .... pls help.....

OPS file is not a problem
Hell you can use OPS file for my Ex Phone and it will do .
5570,5570i,t,m,d all have same OPs files
technically you should get a yellow sign saying COM port 7 or something /
close odin and restart it .
You should get something like MSM7227.

My advice .

Copy Odin ,The Firmware file,The OPS script and Manual in a pendrive .
Take the Phone,pendrive and USB cable to a friend who has windows 7 and working internet connection .
Order pizza and do the steps again .
Chances are it will work
If it doesnt ,atleast you had pizza ....

Why ?
Because ,it has better chances on getting detected on another machine .and pizza is good .
