Basically can I flash a Europe Firmware or ROM that was based on a Europe stock firmware over my Australian firmware and still have my phone fully functional on the Australian Networks?
I read that Asian phones might have issues but as far as I can see the Australian SGS is the international version.
I've installed Darky's 9.0.2 (which is based on XXJPY) on my Optus Galaxy S, and I highly recommend it Much better than the stock rom, much smoother and definitely looks better!
What was your stock ROM? lexxonnet?
It was DTJP5 as well.
ok Thanks that makes me feel a lot better, I think I will install Darkyy's 9.0.2 as well. Which CF-Root did you use? and did you flash JPY stock first or did you just go directly with the Darkyy's ROM?
Anyway I took the plunge and installed Darkyy's 9.1 Extreme Edition.... But the clockwork mod wouldn't work until I flashed my firmware to XXJPY.... but its all working so all is good.

I have a Samsung Vibrant T959 variant, I was wondering if Darky's ROM is compatible with my phone or would there be soft reboots/button mapping issues or just wholly incompatible?
I have a Samsung Fascinate variant from Telus, model T959D, which is almost a carbon-copy of the T-Mobile Vibrant. I'm currently running Darky's 9.2 rom just fine.
A thing to note, other users have said we couldn't upgrade straight from Stock rom to Darky's 9.2 We had to first flash Darky's 9.1 rom and then flash 9.2.
Due to the I9000 kernel, the home button will function as a back button. Thankfully, supercurio released a stock+voodoo kernel for our T959D variant, and flashing that after fixed it.
I'd suggest you ask around on the Vibrant forums for users with Darky's rom installed. It's pretty brilliant. I'm at 21% battery life with almost 2 days of light-moderate use.
When I flash the variant, I am unable to use wifi. With the i9000 kernal it works fine. Does anyone know why?
Running Darky's 9.4 with otherwise no problems
Hello guys,
before installing Darky's roms, I had a rooted and OCLF-fixed SGS, with stock I9000XXJPP Italian firmware, build RSJP5.
Then, I tried to look for a stock JPP rom, or atleast the same I had when I first bought my phone... I installed the K9 Rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841122
And now there is an Italian update for my SGS, with Kies. Many SGS users updated their phones to this 2.2.1 stock firmware, but I don't know if I can update my firmware using this rom I already have (the K9).
If not, what should I do to get my stock rom (I9000XXJPP - FROYO.RSJP5) to install the new 2.2.1 Froyo version with Kies?
Help me please...

You need the original firmware from the branded network phone for Kies to find an update . It does not work on non standard roms .

Greetings from Germany. Phone runs on 2.2 Android with Kernel 2.6.32.9 root @ SE-S608#1
The Samsung Kies says
PDA:JPH
PHONE:JPP
CSC:JPA (ORS)
I wanted to upgrade to Gingerbread, but Kies says its already running on the newest available (Froyo). Im using the english version of Kies, think it doesn't matter?
1. Im using the german O2 Network, and I think the phone is not branded or rooted cause its new. Is the Gingerbread not out yet for my phone version ?
2. Can I flash the newest firmware like 2.3.4 by using Odin - WITHOUT rooting the phone - (rooting voids the warranty) ?
3. Is there currently any good custom ROM which is perfectly stable and has none bugs or lacking functions of official Gingerbread 2.3 ?
Heres a great 2.3.3 rom (Darkys)
Very stable and very fast, give it a go, you have to flash the JVH base rom first.
have a read....
