Can somebody help me better understand the JPA, JPY, JP6, JH2, and all the other ones I've been seeing? Are they revisions of the phone, cross compatible at all? Any help would be great
Cheers,
Greg
In essence they are releases of the Samsung firmware by Samsung .
www.samfirmware.com for data order and country specifics .
jpy before jpx etc

Oh alright, thanks.
Is it included with custom ROMs or are they separate from that?
A custom rom will generally use the latest stable rom .
JPY last one with some developers moving to XWJS3 .
Good guides here .

Cross compatibility is one thing you need to check for different continent zones /phones

So if I'm on Froyo 2.2, can I also select between JYP, JS3, etc? Or are they part of that ROM?
They are both later versions and are 2.2.1

i would suggest to flash Darky's Rom. it's easy and you don't need to use odin or heimdall. plus its a really fast Rom!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
i was looking into doing that but an i flash without having a firmware already installed
or do i need one already on the phone i have read on a lot of post people saying
you need something like jm8 firmware first then you can flash over it dont know
whats the best way realy
thank you
Kies 2 is the easiest way........... If you want to flash to a custom 2.2 I suggest reading through these forums for a few good hours.
How does your phone work if you have no firmware .???
Suggest A Froyo update is normally via Kies . Why do you need to flash ??
Suggest B If you are flashing custom roms please please read all the posts regarding flashing and save breaking your phone .
Suggest C questions go in the Q& A section not development .

<----- says the best way to flash FroYo if you are a woman is to wear a t-shirt with FroYo stencilled.
Seriously, if you want an official 2.2, try one thats correct for your country & region. General section has a sticky.
If you are adventerous & want to experiment, try one of the MODDED ROMs available. There is a sticky here in dev.
If you want a 2.2.1 without ant modifications, try to search for it here in dev with a title [MOD][CSC] or something or try my desi link in my signature. I will search & add links later.
PS : how old are you?

is that a yes??
yes, you can
Many ways to do it... I've used Darky's, Ultimate and a few others... settled on Doc&Stef's RomKitchen as they use stable components and the process is very easy to use and well documented.

Ok so im keen on flashing this Darky's ROM because of its proposed battery life and speed compared to stock firmwares. I was wondering if people could give me links or advice as to what else I would need to flash at the same time so that I have optimum coverage for my provider (Optus- Australia). I'm on a stock Optus 2.1 eclair ROM.
Thanks!
Please, do some research instead of just asking questions. We're trying to prevent spamming of the same questions over and over. Look in the developers page, there's plenty of information there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=665
I had done some research and had not found any solution specific to my carrier (Optus) apart from installing a Optus Modem. Could you tell me how I would install a Optus Modem?
because of its proposed battery life and speed compared to stock firmwares.
??????????????????????????????????????????
You would need to ask the developer of that rom what you need or read post in the OZ post .
Thats as well as reading Darky FAQs etc.
Better still i can point you to Opus modem in rom kitchin .
Build your own rom .

you dont need to flash an optus modem, however,it is highly recommended that you upgrade to 2.2 through kies or otherwise. other than that, you will need to be rooted with clock work mod. after that , just drag and drop the rom zip in to your phone, download the configuration app from the market and flash from there.
Whenever I flash a new darky version I normally flash his odin ressirection edition then use cwm to flash latest version hope that helps

I know that this question is very stupid for the most of u guys but plz help me understand .
can someone plz explain to me what JVU means ??
thank u

It's an android build identification . Check settings - about phone. You should see something similar under baseband.
Eg gingerbread 2.3.4 had many different builds, jvr, jvb etc. It is used to identify the rom, modem and csc of a particular release.
That's close enough for you - I'm sure there's more to add, but that's it in a nutshell.
Jvu is the value pack upgrade release for the sgs instead of ics 4.0
I imagine google would have given you a better explanation than me.
