[Q] Downgrade to Eclair? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know its weird that froyo is out and you wanted Eclair back. But i think froyo is a bit unstable and i preferred using eclair until froyo is ready for me. Any guides on how do i downgrade?

using Kies if u hack the registry cose and put the italian product code
ITV
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\DeviceDB\8]
"SoftwareRevision"="I9000XXJF3/I9000OXAJF3/I9000XXJF3/I9000XXJF3"
"ProductCode"="GT-I9000HKDITV"
ITV is italian one where froyo for kies still not updated!
U can revert to 2.1

Does this SoftwareRevision combination get ANYTHING with your ITV salescode ?
I can't find ANY GIVEN WORKING xx/xx/xx/xx sequence would get any ITV upgrade.
I'm always answered "This device's version cannot be updated"
Neither I can get the old eclair JM2 version... Even with old Kies
Does anyone have an idea ?
Thanks

Whats your problem with Froyo? Seems like a huge improvement for me.

I haven't any problem with Froyo. Absolutely. I'd like to upgrade, indeed.
But I would do that without tweaks and code post-changes...
I was only asking whether anyone EVER updated ANYTHING with the ITV csc code...

apparently they released the JH2 again but including a SPL fix, so people already on JH2 will need to flash back to JG8 or something, then flash forward to JH2 again to get the new SPL fix

from Italy, last official fw found in a galaxy i9000 bought by me last week is JM3. It's pretty solid with minimal lag. Gps is not good as it is in JM5 and over, though

If I remember correctly This bug is not because of the JM8 as I remember other people having it after they came from nexus phone 2.2 froyo to samsung 2.1 eclair roms you could be having a similar problem were you using Froyo rom before you flashed back to Eclair.

[Q] Want to update froyo on baseband I9000DDJG4

I am the new user of SGS..
I have phone with Eclair 2.1 and baseband I9000DDJG4..
I want to upgrade it to Froyo 2.2, how can I upgrade it?
Please help me.
I'm little messed up with what this baseband means?
Hi Rahul,
Still samsung have not yet released the Froyo update to indian galaxy S, by next week you can update using Kies. Baseband is nothing to do with fryo update.
You can use Registr Hack to update to froyo 2.2, if you are going to update it go for JPA, its fast and smooth.
1) Change the following registry keys
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\DeviceDB\1]
"SoftwareRevision"="I9000XXJF3/I9000OXAJF3/I9000XXJF3/I9000XXJF3"
"ProductCode"="GT-I9000HKDXEU" <--- There you have to put your Product Code. I used for example European Countries Code
"HIDSWVER"=""
"DEVCONINFO"=""
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\]
"LocalVer"="1.5.3.10103.100"
This is very good one### its fast one
Nordic Countries: GT-I9000HKDXEE --> PDA:JPA / PHONE:JPP / CSC: JP4
Only editing these registry will allow me to upgrade the firmware? Will it cause any problem?
What are registry edits for JPA firmware? Can I use the same you've given above?

Still No Froyo

Whoever can help with this I will offer sexual favours to,
I purchased my galaxy s online about 2 months ago. I have a sneaky suspicion that its locked to CarphoneWarehouse but i'm not sure. I have an o2 sim card in but I still cannot upgrade to froyo via kies. A family member has the same phone and got his instore and has just upgraded to froyo and he's with carphonewarehouse on o2. Is there a reason I cannot upgrade mine? I've waited for so long all I want is a bit of Froyo.
Thanks
Also, I tried the kies hack a month ago but it just upgraded me to 2.1 update. I dont know if this unrooted the phone and has made it illegible for the upgrade.
i dunno about the sexual favour so i will try to help u for free. ;-) you can check your version and if it's possible to upgrade it officially by checking the registry or u can bypass all that by just altering the registry and patch a dll.
do you have the latest kies?
is carphonehouse a network or just a seller?(sorry i'm not from england)
if u don't find the topics i will post the links
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
and please check if u can go into download mode bevor flashing....
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
i've just re-downloaded kies so i will try that but checking the registry to see if i'm able to upgrade sounds good, how do i do that? Then if these both dont work i'll be happy to change the regirst and download the patch,
Thanks for replying.
Nooooo, I still cant through kies. Useless software.
I have an unbranded, unlocked i9000 on vodaphone in the UK, and I had a similar problem after trying to hack the registry to download the Noric version of 2.2 last month. Instead, I got a 'updated' 2.1, and whever I tried using Kies to upgrade, I get the message 'this device cannot be updated', even after hacking the registry again.
The problem, as explained in this article (http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S_Series&oldid=10462), seems to be that my copy of Kies is too new. I suspect you might have the problem. Go to the link and download an older version of Kies (1.5.3.10093_82), then with Kies running and your phone connected to the PC, change the registry values to:
LocalVer: 1.5.3.10103.100
SoftwareRevision: I9000XXJF3/I9000SWC/I9000XXJF3/I9000XXJF3
ProductCode: GT-I9000HKDXEU
HIDSWVER: I9000XXJF3/I9000SWC/I9000XXJF3/I9000XXJF3
Close the registry and check for phone firmware upgrade using Kies. It worked for me.
My phone is now:
Model number: GT I9000
Firmware version: 2.2
Baseband version: I9000XXJPP
Kernel Verson: 2.6.32.9 [email protected]#1
Build number: Froyo:XXJPO
The registry values are now:
SoftwareRevision: I9000XXJPO/I9000OXAJPO/I9000XXJPP/I9000XXJPO
ProductCode: GT-I9000HKAXEU
HIDSWVER: I9000XXJPO/I9000OXAJPO/I9000XXJPP/I9000XXJPO
Lastly, can anyone tell me if I've got the stock UK rom, and whether GT-I9000HKAXEU is the UK country code, as I cannot find this product code in the database anywhere.

[Q] Galaxy s and update to 2.2.1

Hi guys.
galaxy s fascinated
PDA:JP5 PHONE:JPP CSC:JP3 (EUR)
I've a problem. when i updated to froyo from eclair i've used "kies registry patcher" and i've changed csc to jp3 (eur), i suppose, i not remember exactly what i've done..
Now, when i try to update to 2.2.1 , no update is available for my galaxy.
What can i do?
thanks everyone
Ale.
You changed product code ??

Kies does not know what your phone is .
Its not got the details that match the firmware for that brand of phone .
Kies only reads phone product hardware and firmware id .
Looking for a match to its database none found .
OR for the product code etc you are showing Kies there is no update .

Kinda the same you did before?
Download Kies registry patcher for Kies 2.0 and spoof what you want in Kies 2.0 and check for an update?
Btw before you do that , read all the "warning, important" and backup efs and etc you know the drill

[Q] Missing language SGS I9000

Hey guys!
I am pretty new to this forum, but have been hanging arround for a while.
And i gotta say that it has helped me with pretty much!
But now I have a problem with my phone, and i cannot find anything in the forums about it..
Any help would be appreciated.
So.. Yesterday my phone was giving me a hard time to boot.. For some reason CWM did not show the backups on my rom and so i couldnt restore it.
I downloaded the official I9000XXJPY 2.2.1 EU and flashed with odin, and my phone could now boot again..
However, today I noticed that there are languages missing in the phone, say for example input languages for samsyng keypad.
I have gone nuts searching the net about this..
Is there any way i can get these languages back without rooting and going backways. Is there any firmware that have the languages?
I would love it if someone has a solution to my problem.
I still want it to be a clean rom and so, so that I can update later on with KIES.
Speaking about KIES. When I connected the phone it says
"This wersion of the device cannot be updated" [1]
Why is that?
Also, not that in the picture it says (KOR) [2]
Why?
I would be greatful for any kind of help!
Thanks in advance!
NOTE: Image is attached because of first post, i must have at lease 8 post to have an url.
It reads KOR because I believe you have a Korean csc flashed. In addition, it is saying your phone can't be upgraded because it is not detecting the stock firmware for your region. Therefore if you want to use kies you need tobuse one of the spoofing methods found on XDA or find the right firmware for your region.
As for language, that comes from framework which makes me even more convinced you have the wrong firmware flashed. Later if you install a custom, deodexed rom flashed you can add languages just by flashing a theme that includes the language you want.

Speaking about KIES. When I connected the phone it says
"This wersion of the device cannot be updated" [1]
Why is that?
Two reasons One the obvious no update ie 2.3 is not on the servers .
the other reason is Kies cannot read the firmware product code and hardware ID and match to an update.
EG original firmware O2 UK product code xxxxx hardware id fffff firmware 2.1
Finds a match and downloads 2.2
Flashed stock rom its not the one supplied with the phone so .
product code ddddd hardware id ffff firmware 2.1
no match product code different firmware not from the network branded phone .
Stock is not original its Samsung firmware before the network supplier customises/brands it .
Thats why you keep a copy of your original firmware safe .

Thank you for your reply..
That is odd because I downloaded the firmware from SamFirmware under the Europe category.
Do you know where i can get the right firmware for JPY, if I live in sweden?
Thanks

When that is the case kies lists both your firmware and the current firmware (which match) and says that you have the latest firmware available.

I would check any android sites in Swedish. Sites will often have the firmware for the carriers in their country.

Ok.. So I found the scandinavian version and flashed it, and it is working flawlessly.
Regarding the phone being debranded, can this affect me in a bad way or is it just something minor?

Samsung warranty yes Sellers warranty no its not their firmware .
Technically no warranty but in practice stock firmware as opposed to original does not seem to be a problem for repair .
