Insalling cutom rom with I9000XXJPK - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

okay guys,
so i would like to be able to flash rombie v2a. i have flashed the phone itself using 512pit file and 2.2 jpk firmware using odin. so i got a jpk 2.2 samsung galaxy s and want to flash to rombie whats the saftest way ? Do i just copy the update.zip to sdcard/ then do 3 button recovery and flash that way or is something else needed.Rombiev2a jph files state the kernel needs changing and to use odin to flash it i get all that. but doesnt state if this is the same for jpk aswell. if anyone at all could shed some light and tell me hows i can flash rombie v2a 4 jpk i would be very gratefull cheers wattsy

I am using Rombies' V2A Full with JPK. You need to flash the i9000 kernel first to have recovery mode 2e. You need it to be able to flash the update.zip or you will get an error about unsigned updates. Then once you flash the update you flash the JPK kernel back to the phone.

Can Darky or any pre-rooted Rom be Flashed via odin?

Hi
Maybe I didn't search very well but I have a question that seems very stupid...
With Odin, is it possible to flash a custom rom?
I mean the rom that i use normally flash with voodoo on the recovery mode can't bee found by odin...
Thing is that i've got the corrupted memory problem and acted to fast and flashed the stock 2.2 firmware from bell....now i'm stuck with 3e recovery...
If I could flash to a pre-rooted rom with CWM or Voodoo it would be better i thing if i want to try some manipulation with adb

I haven't confirmed this or searched but I think it's because you have voodoo enabled, this format is ext4 which is a linux format and can't be seen on windows unless you ahve some 3rd party software installed. Just boot into recovery and disable the voodoo, this will put your phone back to the normal format and odin should recognize it.....i'm totally guess here since i haven't tried it but I think this would be the cause
Darky's ROM is meant to be flashed via Clockwork recovery and can not be flashed by odin, darky's comes in a zip file and odin only uses .tar extensions

[Q] clockwork and voodoo kernel issue

Hello.
So i've got a problem with my I9000.
I've upgraded it to froyo, official release, so i'm stuck with the 3e recovery.I recently flashed the voodoo lagfix kernel via Odin. I would like to get clockwork recovery to replace 3e, but I understand i have to flash it via Odin, too. My question is : Is clockwork's kernel going to replace voodoo? If so, how can i have them both?
Thanks a lot in advance.
if you upgrade offical froyo then u must first do a root..the root files can be find here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108...download correct root for your firmwire phone...then flash it tru odin..when u done with that u must download a rom manager from market...and install it to get clockwork mode =)
I wouldn't follow the previous poster's advice.
If you're going to use cwm, why do you want stock firmware? Try flashing speedmod kernel to get cwm, which has built in root and lagfix accesable from recovery. Or just go to a custom fw like docrom kitchen.
Best procedure for going custom with the sgs is a single flash of speedmod w/ cwm from odin, and then flash anything else via cwm.

Hi I installed JVK no probs then installed the ext 4 but something went wrong so i flashed back to JM1 with odin using 3 files and checking re-partition, which is what ive got now but i am tring to root it so i can restore in CWM, but i cant root it, so far ive tried Z4root. OCroot. and flashing chainfires kernel all of which does not work. I also have a copy of O2 file from JJ which i have tried to flash but that just goes to loop. can anyone helpplease im starting to pull my hair out. I can get download and my pc does have drivers many thanks
flash something newer using odin.
JM1 is really old now, flash to froyo and flash a kernel such as speedmod, then flash what you like from recovery

flash speedmod through odin, no need for any other tools as speedmod kernel has root option

[Q] Please help me did I brick my phone?

Hi,
I've tried to flash the latest MIUI ROM on my Samsung Galaxy S but now I'm stuck at recovery mode. When I reboot I always get into recovery mode. I just can't boot it. I tried to wipe and put other rom's on it but I just can't get phone working! I can get into download mode.
So can my phone still be saved?
Hope you guys can help me out!
I would try a clean XXJPU install with ODIN, after you'r on stock install a custom kernel with root - then try cm7 (easier install ) then moving to muiu would be easy.
okay thank you, you would be a hero of you could save my phone haha.
wich custom kernel do you prefer?
If you have download mode install a clean 2.2.1 JPU whith Odin (pit 512 and Re-partition).
Once you have it working, flashing as you want.
Froyo 2.2.1 custom Kernel: speedmod k13d.
GB 2.3.3 custom kernel:Voodoo test 6.0 or GTO Ginger JVH RC1 v2.1.
both for recovery (zip files).
DamianGTO Ginger JVH RC1 v2.1 kernel works fine for gingerbread roms
if you are able to get into donwload mode, you are saved
looks like the ROM you are instlling aint working, or your doing it wrong
i would suggest trying a stock firmware first then you can go crazy and try with new stuff

[Q] cwm not installing with recovery 3e

Ok so i just rooted my sgs with superoneclick and im trying to install cwm recovery but when it reboots its starts in my normal recovery (3e) and fails during install. Can someone guide me in the right direction?This is what it says:
installing package
Finding update package
Verifying update package
E:failed to verify whole file signature
E:signature verification failed
I have tried over a wifi connection and 3g but both to no avail.
Model GT I9000M
Firmware 2.3.3
Baseband I9000UGKG3
Kernel 2.6.35.7-I9000UGKG3
[email protected]#2
Build Gingerbread.GKG3
PS I have no problem flashing using odin and starting from scratch. I just want my phone to run to the best of its ability. So please reccomend the best build, rom, theme and apps to have too.
Thanks in advance to all responses.
well 3e recovery can't flash unsigned zips from recovery so try flashing another kernel via odin that has support for i9000m
Any ideas on the best kernel to flash that supports i9000m?

Since you know how to flash. Go to this link to download and flash JVT pda, kg3 modem and csc with 512pit in odin. It wont bootloop and then you can flash any jvt kernel as pda. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881

I am having the same problem on my Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000.
Will the solution you have posted work for me too?
Yes. You can flash any kernel for gt-i9000 you want via odin. But make sure you flash correct version for your firmware or it will give you bootloop

Many thanks! Going to try this now. Been wanting 4.0.1 on my SGS for ages.
Hello.
I'm having almost the same problem.
I can use the usb un the phone.
I have 3e recovery installed and i woul like to instal clockwork mode.
There's a different way to flash clockwork mode?
I've tried from RomManager but the signature is verified and doesn't work.
Thank you in advance.

Yes, it should be flashed using Odin3, together with a kernel, will work better than ROM manger, so go here and follow the instructions.
Check this out! You , YES! you are an " Android ". Not your phone but U.​
