[Odin] Full EB01 Froyo leak, packaged ROMs w/root and new clockwork **UPDATED**2/11

Put my mind at rest! I have Odin on the PC, the flavor of Froyo I want (superclean), had to change the file extension so Odin could see it (removed .rar) update zip on sd card, photos backed up on PC, instructions printed out( with a good understanding of them) I think I'm good to go. Mainly wondering about changing the file ext. That okay?

dont change the file extension, extract it to your desktop...it will extract the .tar.md5 file you need out of the .rar

RIGHT CLICK AND SELECT EXTRACT HERE THE .rar file AFTER DOWNLOADING AND BEFORE USING -->EB01SC24x_DXC.tar <~~Per OP
 
works fine for me....45 sec wait on MegaUpload and downloaded from my phone in Dolphin Browser HD

I know it might be a pain, but, could you post a mirror to the update.zip?

download this: http://db.tt/kWmVm4F upzip/extract it to your desktop and put the update.zip on the root of your sd card

One more question...

If I extract "cwm-recovery-ALL.zip", I'll get the two folders that are in this zip:

kernel_update
META-INF

Shouldnt I just rename this to update.zip?

Sorry for the confusion and thanks for your help!

The help everyone gets on this site is just out of this world! Thanks guys for doing such a great job helping us 'newbies' understand our phones and the ways to mod them!

(On a side note... I will be rooting when I get home! Wootwoot!)
 
that means your PC is seeing your phone as a CD drive instead of mass storage...did you reboot your computer with your phone plugged in
Yes I did reboot with the phone plugged into the pc. Debugging and mass storage were enabled. When rebooted phone will not show up in my computer at all untill I unplug USB and plug back in. Then I only "see"" phone for a few swconds with the previously mentioned folders/files.

At one point you said to PM you when ready. I am confident that you could get me through this root, but I just wanted you to be aware of the driver issue. After root it may not even be an issue.
what guide are you following to root?
in menu/settings/usb settings do you have it set to ask on connection?
if not def try that...
also try a different USB cable if you arent using the one that came with the phone, or even a diff usb port on the PC...

I did try the ask on connection option but the results were the same. Ditto for original and other usb cable. My intention was to use the root method at the beginning of this thread. I hve down loaded odin, update.zip, superclean tar.

so the update.zip is on the root of sd card or are all those downloaded files on your pc?
its very odd you cant get your phone to be recognized on the computer...when did it stop working? have you rebooted the phone while plugged in? tried it with usb debuggin and allow mock locations checked? both unchecked?

Thanks Tapout, that didn't seem right. I had to get a program to unzip a rar. Couldn't extract it before. Life is good again!
