I have a problem.. I tried to flash the recovery 5.0 but when the phone reboots in recovery mode nandroid shows a 0.4.4 version! In theory when I flash it with fastboot the phone says that everything is ok, showing an "writin 2890kb OK"...

I have flashed my galaxy with Odin and firm K4, with original recovery, and flashed the recovery again but.. the same thing...

Any ideas?

Did you update RECTOOLS.tar.gz ?

Now it works. I was trying to flash the galaxy with virtualbox on linux, but definetly I decided install xp and flash the phone keeping windows for the future.

Did the formatting option works? Because I decided to format with swap but when I tried it says that "format failed". The filesystem it's fat32? Doesn't is ext3 in android?

Thanks
