Flashing 2.2 Froyo to US T-mobile phone?

I was reading the thread about the hack to be able to flash a ROM from another region onto your phone by changing some system registry values. Is it possible to use the Froyo 2.2 ROM from another region and the modem firmware from the released US 2.1 firmware package in order to flash a US T-mobile Vibrant phone and still have it function on the network, but be running the 2.2 OS? Would this work?

I believe that this version of 2.2 is only for the i9000 version of the galaxy s; the t-mobile version is T959.

Hi everyone i have a unlocked uk i9000 i was wondering what firmware version i need to be on to get the new official froyo rom through kies ive just flashed too jm1 with baseband jg6. plugged my phone into kies but there is no update available, is it because its not available yet or because im on the wrong firmware is this one official.

[Q] Downgrade from 2.3.3 to Official 2.2.1

Hello there, my phone is an European factory unlocked, unrooted that i have upgraded to I9000XXJVK some weeks ago.
I'd like to know if it's possible to downgrade back to an official 2.2.1 so i can start again updating from Kies. I'd also like to know which Android ROM is official because there seems to be plenty of them.

All Android roms are official use the latest one for your phone .
All Android roms are stock Samsung roms not the branded rom that came with your phone .So no upgrade from Kies as Kies only reads branded phones id .

What do you mean with branded? I bought my phone from Samsung and not from an Operator

In which case downgrade current firmware to one below the latest one for your phone on Kies . Then try Kies if it fails its due to your Product Code changing with the JVK flash . You may need to use spoof fw to change product code .

Branded as in Kies upgrades network branded phones by a matching product code if you have changed firmware via Odin codes may be incorrect .

Hi there
I actually did this today (as I want to await the official release on Kies).
Best bet is to use Odin to get to JPU: http://hotfile.com/dl/99955459/dea6962/I9000XXJPU.rar.html (this is a 3 file ROM - I used repartition).
Then use Odin to get to JPY (the latest official UK release): http://hotfile.com/dl/100618077/49a97b4/I9000XXJPY.rar.html (this is a single file - no repartition).
This got me back to 2.2.1 so I can continue to use Kies for future releases. You might also want to check your CSC is correct using *#272*YourIMEI#
Hope this helps.

In order to get back to 2.2.1 you have to Spoof a old 2.2.1 or a 2.1 firmware. To get Europe 2.2.1 you can spoof
Product Code: GT-I9000HKDXEU
PDA: I9000XXJF3
CSC: I9000OXAJF3
Phone:I9000XXJF3
This will make Kies give you

[Q] Which version i need to be for update on Vodafone

I've heard that Voda is providing 2.3 update for SGS.
Which version (product code) should i be on (or spoof) in order
to get Gingerbread on my phone ?
Originally bought on ebay factory sealed, T-Mobile branded,
(Designated for use in UK), then registry spoofed and flashed
to Froyo. Dont have original rom nor info (versions and prod#).
Bought and use it in UK.
Phone as it stands now is
I9000HKDKOR
PDA XXJPY
Phone XAJPY
CSC XXJPY
P.S. The phone currently is on Vodafone network.

if you have an unlocked phone, with just a vodafone sim you wont get the update from them, The phone has to have vodafone branded firmware in order for kies to update it.
why would you want to keep vodafone firmware ? its full of bloatware,
head over to www.samfirmware.com and register for free, download Gingerbread and follow instructions.
the whole process will take less than 30min
