I posted a question yesterday about my android Market not working. I tried every possible thing but I cant get it to work.
So now i'm thinking to install apk files manually through droid explorer. I was able to install some apps by download the apk from internet and using batch installer in droid explorer. But I cant install Flash Player and Asphalt 5. It shows Failure - Invalid APK.
My SGS is from 3 UK and i'm using it in India after unlocking it.

Not working
I had a SGS (Official unlocked Indian version) in Nov 2010 and it had stock 2.1 . Everything used to work properly on it.
But why is this SGS having problems ? Is it that the v2.2 has bugs ? Or is it because i'm using an 3 UK unlocked phone, as it has 3 branding ?
Can I flash the phone with an official Indian(or any other clean) ROM ? Can it solve these Market and invalid Bugs ? Because the hardware platform is same on both, I suppose !
SGS Tools market fix try .

Can you download Asphalt 5 from Samsung Apps which is installed by default?
else you can flash a JVK ROM (2.3.3) or JS8 ROM (2.2.1 stable) if you dont have many apps? I used these ROMS and its working fine. I live in India too.

Do u have an Indian version ? Is it possible that the hardware is different ? Or maybe the market sends info about the phone by giving IMEI, etc. and then it may be blocking my access as i have unlocked the phone ?
Where can I download the *stock* JS8 firmware and also get it's instructions, as I have never flashed a firmware manually before.

Unzip the js8 firmware you downloaded. You will see that there are three files pda file modem file and csc file.
If u bave the 502.pit file included use that or download the 502.pit file from samfirmware. Now open odin and then in the pit select 502.pit file. In the pda selct the pda file which you got after unzipping the js8 firmware. In the phone select the modem file and in csc select the csc file. Select repartition in odin.
Now put ur fon in download mode and wen it goes intk download connct it to the pc. Remebr to open odin on pc before you conect the phone. After you have connected the fon u will find lines appering in odin stating that the phone has been detected. After that press start and then wait for your phone to flash!

In the zip file there was one tar file : NEE.tar

Which three files should I select in ODIN ??
Someday plz help
Someday plz help
Should I start the flashing process ?
I'm afraid i'll brick the phone !
Somebody plz verify which files should I select ?
Should I do a hard factory reset ? Will it lock the phone again ?
Or a soft factory data reset is ok ?
Do i have to debrand the phone first ? Like through the kies registry patch ? I has 3 UK branding.
Current software config is :
PDA : I9000NEJP5
PHONE :I9000NEJP2
CSC : I9000HCGJP5
Build Info : 2010. 11
I downloaded the I9000XWJS8 firmware from samfirmwares.com and it has the following files :
cache.rfs

Which of these are the PDA, Phone and Modem files ??
You downloaded a single file XWJS8
YES
What the f8888 you are doing extracting the files for .
Think you need to read all the FAQs before you do anything at all .Your last post does not make much sense . Read and learn and start at the beginning not the middle .

Also you can read he has clearly mentioned that there will be three files in my download. So I was a bit confused.
So should I select the NEE.tar as PDA file and check repartition and just hit the flash button ??
I'm willing to install I9000XWJS8 on my SGS
Is I9000XWJS8 compatible with PHONE : I9000NEJP2 and CSC : I9000HCGJP5 ??

Yeah dats perfect. You can go ahead with the flash. Open odin put the pda gile in pada csc file in csc and in thw phone put the modem file.select 512 as the pit file. Select repartition to avoid issues. And then put ur fone in download mode and flash. Remember to open odin on pc before you connect the phone to the pc. Phone should be jn download mode. Hope you flash this time.

Seems like my SGS doesn't support recovery & download modes.
I first held volume UP + Home button. Then while pressing them I also pressed the power button. The phone runs in SGS logo boot loop if i keep them pressed. I searched on forums, i found that we have release the power button as soon as SGS logo shows up. I did so and the phone boots up normally. Is my method wrong or the recovery & download modes could be really locked ?
Should I attempt that bootloader fix for enabling these 2 modes ? How safe is that ?
hi guys pls help me i tried surf the net with no help
i have a Samsung galaxy s i9000 i rooted to 2.3.3 but
today i flash my phone back to singtel firmware JG4 and i plug my device to kie
it came out this error hw do i change my CSC back to singtel?

pls help thanks
i think its better that you first go to stock rom xwjs3 with the boot loaders.
you can download them from sam firmware,
and then check in kies the csc must be normal again, if so you can flash the rom you want..
i had the same problem and i think it is because with xxjvk you get the new boot loaders, and you must go back to the old one for you're rom

the reason i wanna flash back cus my phome home button not response-ing

A flash wont fix a cracked camera lens .
Kies cannot deal with a rom that does not match the correct product codes and hardware ID of the original device network data .
If you require Singtel firmware you need to source it from somebody that backed it up as you i take it did not back up your firmware .
Alternative is to try the Kies registry spoofing methods posted on xda or the app from the market .
http://www.appbrain.com/app/spooffw/com.johnan.spooffw
jje
If any of the firmwares overwrote your product code (not the salescode in the CSC!) then the only solution I know about is to put a factory firmware which has lower version than the latest available through kies (that to make sure kies can be connected and the fw updated) and as a second step you have to manually edit the nv_data.bin file in the efs folder(make a backup before you do this!) with a HEX editor. Find the wrong product code the jist replace the letters, write it back to the efs folder and reboot. You should be fine.
And don't forget to flash a carrier specific CSC via Odin!

Sunday i send my phone to causeway point to repair my camera lens and button.. today they send my phone to my house Thumb up... i notice they change all the button, lens and the whole back case and i notice my firmware is i9000DXJPB is it the latest firmware?
Hi if someone can help id really apprteciate it. Dunno why this is confusing me so much.
Anyway I want to put stock uk firmware on my galaxy s so I can sell. Pretty sure it was the unlocked stock firmware.
I tried doing the reg hack on kies - it finds update and then says device version wrong.
I tried using spooffw - for some reason it updates the pda ok but doesnt update phone/csc (click ok and it reverts back to whatever it was on before)
I tried installing JM1 from samfirmwares and whent into kies and again says cannot update on this device.
Can anyone tell me what I need to flash onto this bloody phone so I can get kies to upgrade to the oficial fw.
I would like to put on a 2.1 rom and then have kies upgrade then I know its stock. I downloaded jf3 but that didnt come with phone or csc ? where would I get them?
first of all its not a bloody phone
then why you want to use kies? you can flash a rom by odin easily, just do some study for how to flash a rom and proceed,
kies sometimes have strange behaviours, personally I never used kies after I tried it once
I take it you want not the stock rom but the rom provided by the phone provider .
Two routes one replace the original rom you saved .
two flash stock rom lower version than current rom on Kies . Use a method of spoofing the correct codes for the original product .
Kies only updates if the correct codes for product firmware device and hardware are showing . Once you go the unofficial flashing firmware route Kies may not find these codes until you find the correct codes .
Stock = Samsung firmware Original = network branded that came with the phone .

Hi flashing a rom isn't the problem but flashing a rom that makes my i9000 appear un tainted by custom roms etc is where I'm having the difficulty. I wanted to do the final update via kies then I would know that kies thinks my phone has genuine firmware. If it wont update via kies then this is a clear message that the phone has been tampered with and I may not get the money from the company.

You are right I want original firmware. Main problem is I have no idea what this would have been. I didn't make a copy as my first upgrade involved doing a kies reg hack before there were any custom roms and I stupidly didn't take note of what I was currently on. What I do know is that my phone has never had any operator logos or software on it. (unlike my gs2)
I have tried doing the reg hack on kies 2.0 but apparently thats not properly supported yet (can I use an older kies 1.5 or something? or will it ask to be upgraded?)
I have tried using spooffw but step 3 (where you set phone and csc) doesnt work, when you press ok is reverts back to whatever it had on before no matter the value you enter.
Does anyone know of an o2 stock firmware that has been uploaded somewhere? ideally with pit, csc modem and pda. then I can hopefully use odin and then confirm that all is ok in kies?
Or if I am going to go the spoof route (probably with kies 1.5 as 2 is not playing ball) does anyone know what values I should use for each?
Thanks
well on www.samfirmware.com there is a list right at the bottom for provider FW, maybe one of them is o2 firmware, check it and see if any of them stand out as the one you had firstly.
why do you need o2 firmware specifically ??
you can sell your phone with JPY 2.2.1 stock and no one would be the wiser .

jpy? so is that a firmware you could actually get on a device brought in uk? which specific download should I choose? Once downloaded and flashed if I connect to kies will it be able to do future updates?
EDIT woohoo I did as you said and used UK JPY found here
http://www.multiupload.com/PZNPALHVDW
and its now being picked up in kies saying latest firmware installed. Excellent now I can sell it without worrying.
bit sad it was definately the best phone ive owned and there still doesnt seem to be much out there that can push it to its limits (let alone the s2) still the extra screen size and better pixel layout are definately worth the upgrade.
Thanks everyone for your help.
If thats not it i uploaded O2 JPY within the last month linked in two posts .Dont know where though .Its probably mine on Sammy anyway .
Flashed direct as PDA via Odin . If problems after with modem . Unzip file extract modem flash file again as PDA and also the modem file is what i did .

Firstly I'll apologise if this question has been posted already, but being a little bit of a noob when it comes to firmware codes I thought I'd ask in a clean thread.
I downloaded the Froyo 2.2.1 XXJPY stock firmware from samfirmware.com, but I noticed that it didn't come with the froyo bootloader, modem or CSC tars to return it to true stock (im looking to downgrade from the XXJVK 2.3.3 that was released on here).
Could someone please point me in the right direction to finding these so that I can return my phone to true stock?
Thanks in advance for any help
Not sure what you mean by True Stock all the samfirmware is true .
Unless you mean original branded firmware .
You would need to have saved that in the first instance .
Samfirmware instructions are for a single file to flash as PDA .
Why do you want to change Modem and CSC in that file ???
jje
It's just that I noticed when using Kies to see if it would recognise in there that it was still using the XXJVK (KOR) modem etc. rather than moving it all back to XXJPY for everything.
This is more to try to get kies to recognise it and get the official kies update for GB (if it's out) from 3 UK without using the registry hack (which I believe is no longer working?)
Kies will not recognize . The hardware ID the Product Code will not match anything on the server .
Spoof FW is your best bet .

hi, guys.
I'm having a mini2 with s5600 version. Am I ok to flash s5600D firmware to it?
Are the s5600 and S5600D the same?
and I managed to download the mini2 firmware from Samfirmware.
All I got it is one package S6500D firmware. 6500DLH1_S6500DCHNLH1_S6500DLH1_HOME.tar.md5
JENA_Secure_NonNFC_1109.pit and Odin3 v1.85
when I open Odin3, there is four files need to choose from. How am I supposed to use this one package?
and what's the difference between NFC and NonNFC with pit file?
Thank you for you all.

Please flash according to your model. If you have s6500 > flash s6500 firmware. same as s6500D
firmwares are flashed on the PDA tab.
the language I need is only with S5600D, that's why I decide to flash S5600D into my S5600 phone.
so as you said, one file package choose PDA tab, how about pit file？ doesn't need it?
The .pit file is only needed for re-partitioning , which you don't need when flashing a firmware .
You only need the .tar.md5 , which you load as PDA .
BUT
You can't flash S6500D firmware on an S6500 (or vice-versa) . It will fail at the flashing process (it won't brick it , but it won't work anymore either until you flash a proper firmware on it) .
First of all : samsung galaxy mini 2 aka jena is s6500 !
I have one question : On samfirmware there is firmware for my country (Romania) but only for Vodafone and Cosmote (carriers) and i have Romania(Orange). If i flash the one from another carrier will my sim card work ? and if i flash one from Hungary for example (couse its the last version of firmware) will my sim card work and be able to make calls in my country ?
I love threads like this. Where's my popcorn?

RO Orange SGM2 Firmware (note that this is S6500D but I'm pretty sure you have the D one because that's what Orange is selling) - I'm on the same carrier as you and I used this without a problem many times .
And no , nothing bad will happen as long as the firmware has the same baseband . The only differences are the bloatware apps that the carriers add to the firmware .
And "Samsung Galaxy Mini 2" can reffer to S6500 / D / T / L . Each version is for a different region , as Samsung usually does with its devices .
Yes, mine is s6500D. Thank you very much for the firmware and i didn't mention that it can reffer to s6500 D/T/L because it was obvious...

The .pit file is only needed for re-partitioning , which you don't need when flashing a firmware .
You only need the .tar.md5 , which you load as PDA .
BUT
You can't flash S6500D firmware on an S6500 (or vice-versa) . It will fail at the flashing process (it won't brick it , but it won't work anymore either until you flash a proper firmware on it) .

what do you mean "it won't work"?
it won't change anything, when power on, it still has the original version? it that what you mean?

I tried it. like you said, it fail. nothing changed.
My bad , flashing a S6500D firmware on a S6500 will result in a fail and the download will be discarted , and thus nothing will be actually flashed on the device . You're right .
The problem I was talking about appears when you repartition it . I switched them up xD

hi, guys.
I'm having a mini2 with s5600 version. Am I ok to flash s5600D firmware to it?
Are the s5600 and S5600D the same?
and I managed to download the mini2 firmware from Samfirmware.
All I got it is one package S6500D firmware. 6500DLH1_S6500DCHNLH1_S6500DLH1_HOME.tar.md5
JENA_Secure_NonNFC_1109.pit and Odin3 v1.85
when I open Odin3, there is four files need to choose from. How am I supposed to use this one package?
and what's the difference between NFC and NonNFC with pit file?
Thank you for you all.
