Need a little help. I'm in the process of testing out FF 2.04, coming from Andrometa. I'm trying to flash back to stock, but it's getting stuck in Odin3. I can get the phone in download mode, it just won't complete. Any ideas?

This is the output from odin:

<ID:0/004> Added!!
<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..
<ID:0/004> File analysis..
<ID:0/004> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/004> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!

Normally this process goes quick, so I know something is out of whack. Thanks for any help!

My fix for this has always been to pull the battery and try again. It'll work eventually. Last night I did it five or six times before rebooting my laptop, then it worked right away. Keep in mind that this puts you in the phone-! -computer screen, so if you have a phone that doesn't have the three button combo wait and see if anyone else has better advice.

Pull the plug and see if the phone will boot. If odin never started writing to the phone you will be back where you started. Then just flash straight to next rom. Odin sometimes acts up and a reboot of computer, different port, change of cable, or just trying again seems to normally fix the issue though.
