[Q] Wanted UK Android 2.2.1 - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey this will sound like a seriously stupid question but anyone got official UK Carphone Wharehouse Android 2.2.1 for me to use with odin
Trying to switch back to uk cos kies is seeing it as a XEE which i think is a Sweeden rom.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks!

if you bought from carphone warehouse then your phone should be unbranded. You just need to visit samfirmware.com and download the required samsung firmware and flash with odin.

Thanks!
only one small problem i have absolutely no idea which one is for CPW and which is for the UK specifically

There is a *# code you can enter to change from XEE to XEU but I am not sure if it has CPW and an option and I cannot remember the code. Perhaps someone else does?

Thanks for the info, if anyone else can help that would be great.

found the code cant make it work
quick update i found a website saying that i should enter *#272* imei# but i get to the screen i see the product code and then what i cant select it or anything, any ideas?
Thanks!

Right, go to
settings
about phone
status
IMEI number is in there
make a note of it
go to phone dialer, then enter *#272*YOUR IMEI NUMBER GOES HERE#
another screen will give you the option to change to CPW, it is in there
Hope this helps

All you need to do is flash the JPY CSC, that will get you CPW and XEU as it's a multi-CSC, If you're interestedm here's a link to a JS5 / JPY / JP5 ROM package that you can flash to get the latest stock JS5 PDA with the JPY CSC and JP5 (UK Vodafone) modem. I use it on my phone and it works great, flash it with Odin with no PIT or repartition selected. Root with SuperOneClick: http://www.multiupload.com/Q1O3GP6AJP

Hey
Thanks, will download the file and try and flash the jyp csc to the phone and chnage the product code.
i am on cpw phone using o2 this i think would change that, am i correct?
Thanks

The JPY CSC has the CPW files included so if you phone is currently configured as CPW then it will stay CPW, if it is configured as another product code (eg. XEN), flashing this CSC will allow you to go back to CPW. You can go back by entering the following on the phone dialer keypad (IMEI = your phone's IMEI!) *#272*IMEI# Then select the product code you want and you're away! Be aware that this product / sales code reset will do a factory reset on your phone so you will have to re-root and reinstall all your apps. Good luck!

It worked!
Wohoo!
thanks to all that helped.
installed i9000XXJPY through odin and changed the product code to CPW. am atm debating to install lagfix, seems to run fairly well
Again thank you!

Glad to hear you got it working! You shouldn't really need a lag fix with 2.2.1 as the horrible lag we used to get with 2.1 and 2.2 is gone. Some folk do install lagfixes (although I don't myself) and the favourite seems to be an EXT4 one these days.

[Q] (Q) No 3G signal after returning to XXJPY, any ideas?

Hello guys!
After getting this phone from a friend i have to return it to stock Froyo XXJPY, coming from MIUI.
I managed to get it back to XXJPY: PDA: I9000XXJPY
PHONE: I9000XXJPY
CSC: I9000XAJPY
Problem: I'm not getting any 3G signals!
And KIES isn't recognizing my phone as something i could flash to the next official update.
Can you guys help me out here? Im not a pro in flashing, though i can learn pretty quick.
<edit> i'm from the netherlands, on Vodafone. (if that matters)
Check your APN settings.
I live in the Netherlands and have a SGS from Vodafone to.
Do this:
"Instellingen -> draadloos en netwerken -> mobiele netwerken -> Namen toegangspunten"
Then press the menu key, en click "nieuwe apn"
You can find the settings here:
http://www.vodafone.nl/zakelijk/kla...n/Instellingen_per_toestel/?#settingslocation
Merk -> Samsung
Model -> i9000 Galaxy S (onderaan)
stel het toestel in voor: Internet op je mobiel
Then there is a small button at the bottom saying "Handmatig instellen? Toon mij de instellingen"
Click it, and there will be the settings you have to enter.
This worked for me too when i flashed using repartition.
Mathijs
PS: if you want to go to JS5 (XEN), here's the download link for ODIN & CWM:
http://www.androidworld.nl/forum/sa...-froyo-xwjs5-flashbaar-via-kies-odin-cwm.html
Okay, thanks!
But is was wondering... I used the EZrom to get back to a sort of stock rom to eventually flash jpy.. But i only did repartition with flashing EZROM... Not with XXJPY...
Is that where is has gone wrong?
Also...when connecting to kies, when i want to look if i have any updates, it tells me CSC: JPY (KOR)
I am not really familiar with this problem, and i haven't ever read or heard anything like this.
Okay, i followed your advise and flashed JS5.
Partial Succes!
I am getting a 3G signal, so that half of the problem is solved!
Now the KIES part:
KIES tells me I still can't update my phone to any future updates..(2.3??)
At Current firmware version it says:
PDA:JS5/ PHONE:JPY/ CSC:JS3 (KOR)
I believe that the CSC is the problem here...could it be?
When playing with roms, it sometimes happens that the productcode gets set to KOR.
I've had something like that ones, but my product code changed to XEE.
I just flashed a dutch firmware like you did, but i factory resetted, then my product code changed back.
So i would suggest you to do a factor reset.
However i'm not 100% sure if it will solve the problem.

I just did, no luck so far.
And it's only CSC on KIES that says; KOR
If anyone can shed some light on this matter?
PS:I want to give a HUGE shoutout to anyone here at XDA for providing the right tools to break free from the leash Samsung/HTC/SE etc. hold us on.

It is the CSC that Kies reads and knows whether to update or not. If you want to do it through kies you have to get the right CSC for your area.
You could try this
dial *#272*imei#*
put your imei in where it says imei. It can be found under the battery.
doing this will show your product code and may also give you the option to select a different one.

[Q] [GSM] Optus - Galaxy Tab Factory Restore

Hey everyone,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab running Overcome 1.6.3
I've been having an issue with it overheating and turning itself off (nothing to do with the custom ROM, was doing it before, I was hoping the custom ROM would fix it but it didn't).
I rang Samsung about it and they told me to take it back to where I bought and get them to send it in to me.
My issue is that as soon as they see that it's running a Custom ROM they'll send it straight back to me!
Basically I'm trying to work out the Optus Factory ROM / Modem / PITT files so I can put the correct files back on using ODIN.
Does anyone have a stock Optus Galaxy Tab they can give me all the info for?
PDA: ?
PHONE: ?
CSC: ?
Model Number: ?
Firmware Version: ?
Kernal Version: ?
Build Number: ?
Thanks,
Mitchell !
you could try reading this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1047516
might get an answer quicker =)
Thanks, hadn't seen that.
Will move the question
the firmware my tab came with was JJ4, but when I got it back from repair it came with JMA, so it is hard to say what you should have
Thanks!
I ended up ringing one of the stores and asking them to read me out all the numbers off the Display model (figured it had never been updated).
It is as follows:
PDA: P1000XWJJ4
PHONE: P1000XXJID
CSC: P1000OPSJJ3
I was able to get the PDA + PHONE default files, but I could only get a default CSC file (SERJJ2) because no one had posted the Optus CSC file.
I'm restoring it all now, will let you know how it goes, cheers !
Hi there,
Did you get it working?
I am trying to restore my optus galaxy tab using odin as well, its a nightmare!
I also have the first two files (and not the csc file), but dont know how to do it.
I have the gt-p1000_mr.pit file loaded in odin along with the PDA and phone one (P1000XWJJ4 & P1000XXJID). I have the three boxes ticked, auto reboot, repartition, f. reset time etc. then i press start. It updates for a while then fails near the end. What am I doing wrong? Is it because i dont have the csc file or is there a certain order to do things?

Awesome! This little saga is almost making me consider splashing out and going ipad, but I am being patient. I think theres a learning curve and then all will be good no? or have you got rid of yours since haha
All is good
I ended up finding teamovercome.net and installed their ROM which Im happy with so far. No optus stuff which is a plus
Hey, sorry for the delayed reply. The time zone difference thing over here is still messing with my head. Glad to hear you got it all sorted. I had a look back through all of my stuff and like an idiot I don't have anything saved any more, but oh well.
Haven't gotten rid of mine, but haven't touched it for about a month and a half, since moving over to the US, and not wanting to pay for a SIM card for it.
which version rom are using from overcome and is there any problems with using it on the optus network

[Q] Out-of-box + This version of the device cannot be updated

I have a 2 week old Galaxy Tab which Kies refuses to update I did not mess with it in any way, no root, no aftermarket firmware whatsoever...
Current firmware version: PDA:JMG / PHONE:JMA / CSC:JM6 (LUX)
Model number: GT-P1000
Firmware version: 2.2
Baseband version: P1000XXJMA
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9; [email protected] #1
Build number: FROYO.XWJMG
I got it in Belgium which is where I live but the firmware version says LUX which I assume means Luxembourg. Could this be my problem?
*#272*IMEI# choose your country CODE and press install , this is will wipe everything in your tab .... then check the kies after that
Thanks! I'm trying this as we speak, do you have any idea which sales code to use for Belgium? I tried EUR, it seems logical (Europe?), but I will try them all if I have to -- I'll report back later
Edit: it's not EUR, it shows some weird alphabet, Greek I think I'll keep trying!
Edit 2: PHN gave a Dutch interface but Kies refused to update it as well, so I'll keep on trying different codes
So I tried doing the sane thing (instead of checking each code separately and waiting 2-3 minutes for the device to reset) and looked up every code and the corresponding country. Here's what I got:
YOG (Spain)
XEO (Poland)
XEH (Hungary)
VDH (Hungary)
TPH (Portugal)
SUN (Switzerland)
PHN (Netherlands)
OPT (Portugal)
MOZ (Switzerland)
LUX (Luxemburg)
IRD (Slovakia)
FOP (Spain)
EUR (Greece)
CYO (Cyprus)
COS (Greece)
AUT (Switzerland)
ATO (Austria)
No Belgium... Does this mean I will never be able to update my tab?
I tried LUX (which is a neighbouring country and the code that came with the device) and PHN (which uses the same language and is also a neighbouring country) but when connected to KIES both refused to update
its mean you have to flash your firmware or ask from anyone to give you the CSC files that has your country that in case you are rooted and have CWM i doubt you don't have
so
in second chance follow my guide to flash your stock firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133590
u must download your firmware , from samfirmware.com but before download any one , check if it has your country or no , by this link http://www.samfirmware.com/samfit.htm
start to copy the firmware code from each firmware up there and see if its for your country or no ....
is that so hard ?
Did you buy the tab from a carrier? This configuration looks like it was made by a carrier or a specialised business. Is it a work tab i.e you got it from work.
In your country the out of the box new tabs should be PDA: JMG Phone: JMF CSC: JMG

now he is yours , you are the pro with kies update
lol, I used up all my Google-fu and searched everything I could think of.
Anyway, I know how to root and flash custom firmwares -- I've done it with another Samsung -- but I just wanted to do this one the "official" easy way. But it looks like KIES won't play nice
To answer your question, I won the tab so I didn't buy it from a carrier nor was it SIM-locked. I'll see if I can find a JMG/JMF/JMG .zip somewhere and report back later -- thanks
cannot update out of box
even i purchased a galaxy tab from dubai but when i connected to kies it said my version of device could not be updated. but then i followed this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13682956&mode=linear#post13682956 to install gingerbread and now everything is working fine, market and everything else works fine but the pda field and csc field shows empty when i dial *#1234# .
Both of you have to flash a stock rom and repartition.
But if you have to do that, why not just flash stock gingerbread?

It's the exact same work to upgrade using kies as it is to flash a custom (or stock) rom using odin3 1.7 (or heimdal).
So in what way is it a pain?
u mean to say if i flash my tab with a stock rom then it can be later updated using kies when further updates are available.

I agree -- it's just that I was curious as to why this would happen with an out-of-box stock device.
I know how to use Odin (that is, I know how to follow a tutorial ), I've used it before to flash an Eclair to Froyo, but I'm not sure which ROM to use. I'm on samfirmware.com and downloaded P1000XXJMQ (2.3.3) -- is this the one I should use?
To be honest, I don't even know which samfirmware.com ROM I would need to revert to my current firmware version (PDA:JMG / PHONE:JMA / CSC:JM6)... I think it's either P1000XXJM6 (because of the CSC:JM6) or P1000XWJMG (because of the PDA:JMG)... It's confusing me
So I have 2 questions:
Is P1000XXJMQ a stock Gingerbread?
What ROM do I need in case I want to downgrade to my current firmware? P1000XXJM6 or P1000XWJMG or another one? Edit: I did *#1234# and assume it's P1000XWJMG.
By the way, CSC = Country Sales Code? (just a guess)
Edit: I'm going to flash P1000XXJMQ, I hope I don't brick it, wish me luck I'm a nervous wreck, I drank way too much coffee this morning
Edit 2: the one that samfirmware.com says is JMQ is actually JQ1... still looking for JMQ because I think that's a newer version
Okay, here's an update on what I've done so far and on the outcome...
The link for P1000XXJMQ on SamFirmware was actually P1000XXJQ1 so I went with that one.
According to SamFIT it's for the following regions: Austria, Benelux, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain; which includes Belgium.
I ran Odin3 v1.7 with Re-Partition, Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time; I used PIT file gt-p1000_mr.pit and PDA file P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJPZ_HOME.tar; etc.
Long story short, I'm running Gingerbread but still no sales code for Belgium when I *#272*IMEI#... so KIES keeps refusing to update. It doesn't really matter now because I'm running the latest but I'd like to fix this for future updates.
I searched a lot but I must be doing something wrong. Can anyone give me some advice?

What message does kies state? Is it "latest firmware" or "cannot be updated"?
If it says "latest" then no update yet is available. If "cannot update" then your CSC does not match any firmware combination with samsung...
If you read samfirmware FAQ they have stated that the firmware they post is not official so they don't actually say that samsung recognizes them.

So far it's always been "cannot be updated". I knew it was a CSC problem, I just don't know where to get the right firmware. That's why I asked if P1000XXJMQ is a stock Gingerbread. I'm going to try and find a stock fw and flash it.
Edit: is this the right one: [stock rom][2.3.3] p1000xxjq1 p1000xxjq1 p1000xxjpz ?
JQ1 is stock for Italy

This worked fine for me. Thx

Csc = olbjpe

First of all, I've tried to search first but comes with no suitable answer..
My problem is..
I have a GT-P1000 with XSE csc code before.
So since I've been waiting so long for Gingerbread updates, I've come through an update from Italy. So I grabbed that right away.
The last 1 month has been ok, but since there is an update for my country specific, I want to use that update instead.
...long story short...
I tried to flash back to my older Froyo ROM which is P1000DXJK2
Grabbed both the pit and tar and voila, my SGT is back to froyo
I then tried to connect it to Kies but it can't see any firmwares update (heck it can't even see my SGT firmware now)
I tried *#1234# and found out that there is nothing on PDA and CSC
The SGT is working OK, but I still want the specific update for my country..
So my questions are..
1. Where should I find CSC files or PDA files suitable for my Froyo OS? So that KIES able to recognize it and download the GingerBread update?
2. I also want to update to P1000DXJPE but from my latest experience downgrading from XXJQ1 to P1000DXJK2 .. I was a little bit affraid
Any helps will be appreciated. And if someone already has questioned this before, please, point me toward the thread.. Perhaps I wasn't paying attention when searching before.

[Q] Change CSC and official updates behavior

Hello,
I bought a Galaxy Note almost 2 months ago and I have a question about CSC.
The Note is KKA KK5 KK5 having XEF (France) CSC.
I tried to access *#272*IMEI# and I am able to change to whatever CSC I want (multi csc).
I know that if I change it, it will hard reset. My question is if updating then via OTA or Kies, the update service will understand I need first a Wipe Rom and then an incremental update (if any)?
Or I must flash it via Odin an official Rom to align CSC and PDA+PHONE?
Do that invalidates my guarantee?
Thanks in advance!

Flashing stock Roms via Odin will not invalidate your warranty.
If you change your CSC you will be getting normal OTA/Kies updates for the country you set.
Huh. I did that on mine to see what mine is set to and I get an error that says "Connection problem or invalid MMI code"?

Ok, but even if after factory reset I'll get a KKA/KK5/KK5 e.g. DBT or AUT...
It will understand to update to the first Wipe rom of DBT or AUT region?

but remember if u change the csc it should be equal to the rom u use, or u wont get the updates trough KIES.. if ur CSC dont match the installed ROM then KIES wont reqonise your phone and u wont be able to update via KIES

So you all confirm that changing CSC does not let the phone to automatically get updates for the associated country, but it is necessary to manually put a stock ROM via Odin matching one of the existing couples (Rom, CSC)?

My phone has the xtc csc with no voice assisted google maps navigation. Is it based on the CSC or where I'm physically located?
I am unsure. I know my unlocked came with a CSC code for the UK but Google Maps Navigation works there so I am not sure.
Honestly I would say you might be best just making a back up of your phone and trying it. If it does not work change your CSC back to what you have now that you know works.
I will go out on a limb and say that I have not read anything from anyone saying changing their CSC stopped any google services that operate in the country that they live in. This could be from picking up your IMEI number or the carrier (IE ATT will not be found in China).
Best of luck.
CSC + update problem
