Hi guys,
I have used Odin once before when I broke my phone, i have version I9000XXJPK
Can someone please tell me the version i need to download so that i have official 2.2 for UK spec?
There are so many numbers etc im getting lost off.
I have been on samfirmware and I just cant decide which version i need to be official.
My phone currently cant send SMS and ive read thats because of something wrong with the custom FW i have on. (it was like this when i bought it from the shop second hand)
Thanks

Hey there. It can be a bit confusing, but follow the notes on samfirmware and you should be fine. I upgraded from T-Mobile UK's stock firmware (I forget which version) to JPA, via JM4.
I am using JPA now (again, not sure which provider this is, but it seems to be fairly stock), with no problems.
Make sure you check the notes for each ROM (ie, some have an upgrade path, and some do not). You may need to use a different PIT file and partition accordingly.
Hope this helps.
Thanks mate,
All the release dates are old on Samfirmware, the official froyo for the uk wasnt released until November. the latest firmware on samfirmware is October....
Im really confused how i get from my FW to an official newest froyo. Kies wont work for me at all, tried 3 computers now.
Seriously, screw Kies. It wouldn't upgrade my unit (obviously as there was no provider firmware available), so I patched it with the util posted here and it flashed to about 50% then failed, thus bricking my phone in the process.
If you're not bothered about your provider bloaty junk that ships with the phone, you may as well just bite the bullet and flash JPA or JP0 via Odin. I doubt these are UK specific ROMs (as you mention, Froyo was slated for Nov here in the UK) as samfirmware's are all dated Oct 10, but my phone seems just fine- been using it for around 2 weeks now with no hitches.
Best of luck!
How about installing Doc Froyo custom rom?
It is using froyo 2.2

HI All,
I have waited and waited and............. waited for a standard Froyo Australian Optus ROM, I had not even thought about rooting the phone it was as standard as can be.
The ROM had finally come but I did my upgrade and the phone couldn't see the SIM. So I called Optus who passed me to Samsung who referred me to 2 different "service" centers hoping this was a standard issue with a standard fix. How foolishly trusting was I. so after getting off many phone calls it came to "send it in we will look at it". So I started my own research and ............... nothing (more than happy if someone knows where there is an answer and I just missed it)
So after this fail I was over it and so I loaded the DOC v9 JPO ROM rooting and all. Even after this the phone could still not see the SIM. =( I found the stock standard ROM loaded it and yes the SIM was fine so I tried once again the Optus release, FAIL, and then DOCs, FAIL. so I am back at the stock standard ROM and hoping not to have to send it away.
PLEASE HELP
Hi,
First thank you everybody who post here and try to help peers. It is really nice of you.
Second, here is my problem. I am in Canada so I have my Captivate with Rogers. I upgraded recently to Froyo 2.2, the upgrade process went smoothly. I was very happy with the upgrade for couple of days until I noticed that I can not transfer files on my internal SD card. I googled a little bit and I realized this was a common problem. I called Samsung, I called Rogers .. no help. Then I just wanted to return to previous version so I used Odin3. Just to realize that it is not a Rogers' stock but AT&T.
Now Rogers agreed to replace my telephone and I have to return it back just that I can not return it with AT&T. How can I install a Rogers stock?
Thanks you... please help!
I am an at&t guy but this should help

I have a One flashed to Page Plus and received the software notification on Monday. I went ahead and allowed it to update after talking with my expert flasher . it didn't mess anything up on mine. It was just a software update, and I have Android 4.3 on there....
Yep you can take the update, and if it breaks anything we can fix it. My guide covers the entire flash process. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2601943
P.S. - It will not break anything go ahead and do the OTA (Its a software update that fixes profile and prl update issues) something that does not affect you on PagePlus
Need Help with Sprint HTC One unlocked to Pageplus
Please help me get my phone working...it won't allow me to send mms! I don't know if it needs to be flashed because it was only unlocked?
Hi everyone.
I'm a bit stuck here, and I have googled quite a bit, but seem to come across conflicting information.
Basically I bought a PAYG S3 LTE on EE UK that had official status, and wanted to unlock it to the 3 network. The only way I found to do it for free was to downgrade the ROM to 4.1.1 and use the hidden menu hack and so just decided to take it to the local phone shop and let someone do it properly.
But when I got it back, it turns out that he actually did the 4.1.1 hack himself and has rendered the phone 'modified'. I was a bit miffed as I wanted to keep it on 4.3 and get OTA updates.
So my question is, can I flash a stock 4.3 ROM back to the phone, and if so, will it keep the network unlocked for my 3 sim? Also, will I be able to root 4.3?
I do apologise if these are pretty obvious questions, but like I say, I just have seen many people saying different things.
I've also flashed a few phones of my own, so I'm not a complete newb in that respect.
Any info will be much appreciated.
Cheers.
Download your corresponding 4.3 firmware from: http://sammobile.com/firmwares/
And just flash it with Odin
