Cyanogenmod to Stock - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys
I installed CM 7 successfully on my SGS using instructions here
http://www.galaxyroot.com/rom-cyanogenmod-7-for-galaxy-s-non-official/
It installed perfectly but i m not having signal. So i flashed back original JPY using ODin but phone is stuck on galaxy logo. Please advice on how to revert to original ROM?
Thanks

As per Odin tutorial i select Pit and repartition only when i have 3 files. Can you please advice where can i get 3 files as i have one file only from samfirmware?
My I9000 is international and factory unlocked....

right well were gunna need a 3 file firmware in order to use PIT. bear with me whilst i have a look for one.

probably samfirmare.com ?

yeah just been looking on there they all seem to be 1 file

Yes samfirmware.com has 1 files only.
Are you sure if i flash with 3 files and select repartition then it will solve my problem?

install another firmware like jpjpa with 3 files and then flash xxjpy on it

Will this work?

[Q] How to Flash XXJPY

Hi, I got the JPY ROM from the thread in the general discussion, and any time i have tried to flash it onto my phone, the phone refuses to start properly. It just vibrates a couple of times and black screens.
I am using Odin 1.3 and PIT 512 for this as it says on SamFirmware.com.
Is this the ROM not working properly, or me doing something wrong?
Mate did you click repartition in odin?If you did then you SHOULDNT!!!!
Try to get in to recovery mod with the 3 button combo and make a factory reset if yo had NOT clicked repartition.
In case had HAD clicked repartition in Odin then i guess you ll have to download a foul stock firmware and flash it.Meaning a firmeare that has Modem and CSC files aswell and not only PDA file...
I'm just about to flash XXJPY and I was just wondering, do I have to unroot 'before' flashing the single file (pda) XXJPY or can I leave it as is..?? Does it make any difference..??
Thanks

nah you dont need to have it rooted to flash JPY.
I believe the JPY file in the general forum is just an upgrade / high level package which is why you dont tick repartition. Usually look for posts by Richthofen- hes the dude who converts it to mid level packages so you can couple it with a CSC and modem.
hi there same thing happened to me i updated this thru samsung kies im stock at black screen would factory reset make my phone work again? i need help please please please

I am already rooted so should I un-root before flashing or just leave it rooted..???
And also have SGS Battery Icon Mod installed, again does this have to be un-installed before flash or not..??
Can someone post a link to the right ROM that I can use to update using ODIN that will not result in existing data lost ? The one that I downloaded is a single tar file (Size - 298,890KB) that contains these files. If this is the right file, do i just specify the tar file in the PDA and uncheck repartition ?
modem.bin
param.lfs
zimage
cache.rfs
factoryfs.rfs

Stock .tar firmware?

i am looking for completely stock .tar files to flash through odin
i bricked my tablets and i need to revert to stock. I have the stock recovery file but i can't find a stock rom or a .pit file
You can find it here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1582943
and make sure you got the correct stock rom for your tab version.
Installation guide is there too.
also when using odin, make sure KIES is not running on tray
(for windows: [ctrl + alt + del] > Processes tab > terminate KiesTrayAgent.exe)
it doesn't have the US model listed
It doesn't really matter,As long as it has english language.
Because you're only going to use it to get the recovery back working to flash another rom.
Just grab the latest firmware for the 8.9 wifi only model, P7310XWKI2
one last question? any idea where i can get the .pit file?
There isn't a need in using .pit file.
and i don't know where to get it.
The *.tar.md5 file you found after unzipping it will just do.
load is to the PDA in odin3.

[Q] How to flash a firmware downloaded from Samfirmware?

Hi,
I'm looking to update my Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 to the latest official Gingerbread released here in Australia. I have gone here to find and download the firmware. In all the videos I've watched, you're required to use multiple files in Odin to flash a firmware(pda, phone, csc, pit). My problem is though when I opened the downloaded firmware there was only one file, a .tar file. How would I go about flashing this?
Thanks.

Don't flash that. You may run into a problem. I recommend you use GB flashing kit from here: http://d-h.st/4np and flash it. Its for galaxy s. Its got everything you need. If you want a step by step instruction go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1637966. That is how to use it. I hope I helped! It worked for me!

[Q] Galaxy S Plus Bootloop problem

So my phone is constantly bootloping and it seems I cant find any solution for this. I have tried to flash with stock firmaware, flash with Bootloop fixes found on this forum, with some other ROMs. But not any of these helped. And the worst part is, that when I go to Recovery I cant do anything because it proccess some code and after few seconds it reboots. Thats a big minus because I cant install any Kernel. Its just f. up. I also managed to do a hard reset with phone dial code, it didnt fix anything. Ive also tried to flash broodROM but when I load ROM inside Odin, Odin just crashes immediately.
1. How to fix Odin so it doesnt crash when I load broodROM?
2. Is it possible to flash a kernel with Odin for Gingerbread 2.3.5?
3. Any other solution?
hi
first make sûre that joue have Samsung USB driver installed and kies was unist.. then run windows un safe mode
OK to fix Odin problème using old version is better i suggest 1.85 then right click run as admin

Hi,
what do you mean by that? Usually I would select "One Package" with newer version of Odin, but with 1.85 there is no such an option and I only have one file, which is tar.md5... Are u trying to say that I should load that file under every section or what? Because I dont have PIT file.
Thanks

put the extracted firmware files into c:\odin
delete hidden.img and cache.img
then the command in cygwin to change to that directory would be
cd /cydrive/c/odin
then enter the re-tar command as described in my guide and flash the n910f.tar file with odin! this will work 100%!
Sorry guys.. can i flash N910FXXU1COH4 HUI (h3g italy) on my no branded note?
I uploaded to Mega the tar file without error Too Big. Just flash with odin.

3.3 go it's very crazy O_O
Ok finally got through the change directory, created the tar as described and flashed it with Odin. Stuck in bootloop. Tried installing twrp recovery, either failed with odin or when trying to boot into recovery it automatically went into download mode.
Flashed my regions stock rom through kies emergency recovery. Boots up fine, works fine. Next flashed the 5.1.1 Tar image. Same problem, endless booting sequence (gets up to home page and then reboots).
Anyone have some suggestions?
