   • Click PDA and select the TAR you downloaded. Click PIT and select the PIT your downloaded.

   • Remove the battery.
   • Reinsert the battery.

Okay.
Im having issues.
I have a T-Mobile Samsung Blaze4G

Followed every step to the T.
When I do Vol up+ Vol dwn+ PWR
i come to a recovery screen and at the bottom it says Manual mode.

I dont see anything that says "Download Mode"

From the top down this is what I see
Android Systems recovery <3e>
Reboot system now
apply update from sdcard
wipe data/ factory reset
wipe cache partition


Any ideas?

In Odin I had to download Keis Air because my computer was not installing drivers for the phone. once i downloaded Keis Air and plugged in the phone it recognized it and finished installing the drivers. I did a computer reboot and when I follow the steps I get a YELLOW highlighted box in ODIN under the ID:COM part that says 0:[COM3] in yellow.

I hit start but nothing happens.

Worked awesomely! Just need root now. ;)

Thanks everyone for all the hard work!

Ah shucks. I was able to use the SU files from the t989 and it worked for me.

Is there a difference in what I did and what the root kernel will do?

rooted kernel has a few perks to it that k0nane threw in . hopefully you guys can now attract some devs and start working on roms/cm . we aim to please, just remember us the next time you have a device that isnt getting much love ;P

SCossio from what i understand the key combo gets you into a quasi-downloadmode, need to hit vol up to confirm to enter download mode and then you can plug it in and begin to flash this

perhaps some nice blaze owner can make a how-to video? sorry if our instructions seem off or vague, myself or k0nane have never seen this phone let alone touched one, so we rely on you guys (blaze owners) to help with these kinds of things.

Here is a video on how to successfully enter download mode every time.
