Is it possible...

I installed the Gingerbread update off samfirmware on my samsung galaxy s but i would like to go back to the official firmware for vodafone UK so i can just continue updating through Kies, is it possible and if so how??
Sorry if this is in the wrong place but i have been searching the net for ages and i can't find anything and all i keep seeing is this site so i thought you guys might be able to help me.

Reinstall the original firmware you saved .
Another one that did not save then you might find somebody with firmware saved .
Or you flash stock rom via Odin use registry spoof method to try to update to Vodaphone current firmware .
Kies only updates original firmware .

It is quite simple. Disable any lagfix or ext4 conversion (if any) back to RFS. Flash via ODIN with preferably 512 pit & repartition (it will save you a lot of time & less opportunity of errors appearing afterwards). I would also suggest you to make a backup of your data & do a factory reset before flashing back.....

On youtube are many tutorials how to flash back to your stock rom.
example:
search: samsung galaxy s flash stock rom
-> the first video
stock roms you can download in this forum

I do not have the original VodaFone Firmware, That's why i need to change this current firmware so i can update it via Kies to the original Vodafone uk firmware, i do not know nothing about lag fixes or anything, i just used odin to update my phone to V2.3.3, i followed simple instructions to do it, it was my first time doing anything to my phone, i know i should of read into it etc....

Basic faqs .
Roll back to 2.2.1 from Beta 2.3 Gingerbread .
Post 2 but you are as always at risk of bricking your phone .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033781
Kies will only update stock 2.2 .1 to Vodafone firmware if you spoof the registry as posted .It will not update to Gingerbread until Gingerbread is released .

I'm not very good at these things and i know i shouldn't of done it in the first place but i don't understand those instructions, is there no way anyone has it or can get it for me? or extract it from there phone or something like that?

No nobody seems to bother keeping original firmware >Try a Google search for Voda firmware .
Flash back to stock Eclair 2.1 and try below to spoof Kies.

That fails then your update path is via Odin .

Hi, thanks alot for your time to reply to me, i have currently rooted and i have SpoofFW but when it says choose preset i dont have any in the drop down box and i need a Vodafone uk one, any help here mate?

I have posted the codes you should use in SpoofFw thread, but here you go again.
The codes can be found in the presets as UK (Vodafone) and is
Product Code: GT-I9000HKDVOD
PDA: I9000BUJG2
CSC: I9000VODVOD
Phone: I9000BUJG1
An alternative is to use Check Fus Downloader with which you can download the latest official firmware for UK Vod (I9000BUJS3) and flash that file with Odin. The app can be found in my signature.

Hi, thanks alot mate, can you please guide me through how to do it as when i try and find the preset on your app, there is none there! just blank, so i tried typing it all in and following instructions but it hasn't worked could you please explain?
It still says... This device cannot be updated and still gives me my normal product code etc...

make sure you are connected to internet when you start the app, and try use Refresh preset in the menu. also make sure you have busybox installed.
first hit Backup. put the info above in the fields. and hit step 2 ok. Then press reboot, and start the app again. put the same info as before in the fields and hit ok on step 3. Conenct to Kies.
you can send me your complete log right after hitting step1 button if anything goes wrong.

Try re-installing Kies....Kies is like devil! I Hate it !

flash wice ur problem will be solved.!!!

I flashed twice but not solved my problem. I then re-installed Kies after twice-flashing and it solved my problem.

great now delete this thread......

For future reference:
The problem is that your locale was changed from INU (more likely) or INS to something else, in your CSC.
To access the settings to change your CSC, you need your IMEI number.
Get this by using the code : *#06# , in the phone dialer.
It should be 15 digits. Write it down someplace for this next step.
Open the dialer and input : *#272*<enter 15 digit IMEI>*
It should instantly display a menu. If you get an error, make sure the code is correct and that you have taken down your IMEI correctly.
Now choose your locale from the options presented.
For your locale, check this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787163

What I have to do? Please ,your help

Hello everybody!
I am new on the Samsung galaxy tab's world and I need your lights.
I bought from my Country the Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 with the below features:
PDA: P1000BUJMC
Phone: P1000BUJM2
CSC: P1000njRjm3
I followed your guide (showthread.php?t=888071) and the process was failed somewhere before the end.
After I followed some other guide and I use some other files from the thegalaxytabforum and from samfirmwares.com sites and after I see that my Tab features had been changed to the below:
PDA: P1000BUJMC
PHONE: P1000BUJM2
CSC: P1000VD2JM3.
Also I observe some changes on my Tab. These are:
a. The local settings has been changed to German.
b. After I used an application which I don't remember now, the functions keys light has been dissapeared.
c. I Listen a noise when I try to call.
So, I have some queries for you:
1.Which of the two process above is the correct?
2.How to reback my country's settings? Is there any secret code for it?
3.How to switch on the light on the menu,home, back and search keys?
4.How is the correct proccess to upgrade my tab firmware -if there is the correct firmware on my tab now-to android 3.0 -honeycomp like Samsung Galaxy tab 10.
5. What is the operation of PIT,PDA AND CSC files?
6.what is the difference between a protected and non protected bootloader?
7. Does PDA is the Bootloader?
8. Does the protected Bootloader mean that the phone is locked from the provider?
9.How to change a protected Bootloader with a non protected?
10.Are there different upgrades for the samsung galaxy tab for every country or not?
11.Can I find and download an other country upgrade for my tab? Is it right or not?
12.Can I fix the above problem with call? Is there any secret code to fix it?
I am waiting for your replies.

Friend, you didn't say what guide you were using, and what was your goal.
I will pass on all your other questions until we get the rom flashed properly.
You made a great profile!

Friend rangercaptain, I tried to install the Honeycomp or Android 3.0 on my Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P1000.
If you read again my thread you will see somewhere in the middle that I write for the xda-developers.com guide.Also, I write that I used files from thegalaxytabforum.com and samfirmware.com sites.
So, my problems are three:
1. I want to re-install the frist default settings on my Tab and I don't know where I can find these files on the internet.
2. I want to recover the functions keys light or better the light on the screen's menu.
3. I want after setup of First Default Settings , to install the Honeycomp on my Tab of 7 inches same like Samsung Galaxy Tab 10's firmware.
I believe that I explained you what is my goal and what I want to recover on my Tab.
Thank you for your reply and for your time.
I am waiting for your answers,
John

You can get JMC rom at www.samfirmware.com.
Although your country is Greece, what carrier is your tab from? Maybe there is a stock rom from your carrier.

friend my carrier is Vodafone GR.
Could I found something about it?

You can start a new thread asking someone to extract a backup of that carrier stock rom. Then you can flash it like any rom. Start the thread, and I'll help you.
Be sure to put the carrier in the title and be specific about what you want.

Thank you Rangercaptain!
So, If I find a person with the same Tab and with the same features I can take a full backup from this Tab?
How I can extract these files(PIT,PDA,PHONE,CSC) from this Tab?

Friend,
I did a mistake. My carrier is not Cosmote but Vodafone GR. I confused it with my second phone's carrier.

I posted an answer on your other thread.

[Q] i9100xxKP8 busted my phone

Hi everyone,
This is my first time and I am wondering if someone can help. I have tried everything and nothings far.
I have SG SII few weeks ago someone mentioned that ICS was out so I googled it and followed the instructions which installed i9100xxKP8 4.0.3 version and at the first start the phone does not recognise any SIM card you put. I know I made the mistake not noted down the original firmware number etc.. But I am stuck I can't use Kies to upgrade to the proper O2 upgrade which is out.
Any help would be appreciate it before I bin this lovely phone .
Thank you
Wessam

Firstly this is the wrong forum this forum is for the Samsung Galaxy S (Not SII/2).
Luckily this is not a phone specific thing all that much.
To get your stock rom go to sammobile.com. Find the firmware that best matches your situation, i.e. country and provider. There are also downloadable instructions. Another thing you could do is go to your correct forum and look for the correct firmware.
To be clear all you have to do is install the stock firmware and your phone should be recognised by Kies. If this doesn't happen then you may have to make another post in the correct thread. A fix you could try (not sure this will work on S2) is type *#262*your imei# and select the correct csc code (Changing the code will reboot your phone and perform a factory reset). Also find this on the sammobile.com website, i think letter codes or something.

How to Upgrade Scammed GT-I9000 (M110S ) from 2.3.4 to 2.3.6

Hi
Through this forum(xsenman) I understood my Phone is not Samsung Galaxy S but it is of scammed one (M110S )
recently i had given it to Samsung authorized service center & they tried & in middle the just realized it is not Indian model
So in this process , earlier i was having 2.3.6 but now 2.3.4 Android that to I am facing some problems like Slowness (Internet ON, while Calling, using Alarm etc)
So I decided to upgrade my mobile to 2.3.6 from 2.3.4
but I'm confused as there are different procedure that to very specific one
I am providing complete details about my model can you please provide me guide of step-by-step procedure on how to upgrade
with latest links of software etc (assume I have zero idea on what is ROM & Flashing procedures etc)
But I can do if i have clear guide

Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7

4) For Latest ROM's kernels and anything else Check PIT STOP
Also Let me know best applications/procedure on to back up data before i do start (what kind of information should be retained )

it's a long process...

First of all
You should remove your IMEI numbers.
Second there is galaxy s forum. You can ask over there.

when a ROM ends as .tar.md5 its a single file, just select it as "PDA" in Odin3 and press start, do not tick anything, and wait till it complete that process.

1) Which IMEI no should i use? or will it take care automatically during these procedure?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dual IMEI numbers (which one to use while upgrading 2.3.4 to 2.3.6 )
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
by pressing *#06# i get below IMEI no
354581040087919

1) repair kit will fix your IMEI as given by Samsung.
2) onenand mode is in tegrak kernel, read PIT STOP about it
3) language is changed in settings , look for it in your ROM now, so you will know how to do it if it is in Korean
settings> region/locale> langauge> Korean or English

Hi Expert ,
THANKS A TON !
Now i could successfully on 2.3.6 but with little discomfort as listed below
1) After the New ROM flash I saw lot of Korean (language) applications though i set language/Text to English Mode
I was unable to "un-install/Remove" them
Ex: "T-service", "T-store" "T-map" "June Content Box" "OVJET" etc a lot
2) Most Important one is in My Dial Pad now i do see key pad with Numbers + some korean key symbols
& now there are 2 dial options a) TO KOREA b)TO GLOBAL
This is also Annoying Please help me
3) Now if i try to dial *#06# using "TO GLOBAL" i get "UNKNOWN APPLICATION"
Why I dont see an IMEI number now ?
If i try using "TO GLOBAL" it gives message like i dont have ISD facility to call out of country (as i did not enable)
I was wondering it is USSD code not the dial code
I just suspect after New ROM flash I have not wiped the data (reason i'm not sure on how to do on new settings)
4) Earlier I was having Lidroid Running now I dont have Lidroid ( Is that OKAY)
You quick reposnse would be again appreciable here (as usual :fingers-crossed: )
5) Also one more thing i had taken complete copy of my DATA (just copy paste entire structure)
How do I add back (contacts, Message threads, Call Logs Photos , WahtsUp infor etc)
6) Similarly which other Higher Versions could Flash to Successfully on this Mobile (is it only 2.3.6 ?)

Raj

All your questions had been answered and solution's given in PIT STOP, if you won't bother to read and learn, you should not be in XDA, as here we give you a fishing rod and teach you how to catch fish, not catch fish for you.
Hope you understand. :fingers-crossed: Its for your own good.

Now I just wanted to ask
So is there any other alternate ROM (second best ) to resolve above issues ?
How about

But it has many files & Screen shots does not open on how to input them
Would give some light here
