[Q] cm7 with bell i9000m flashing back - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all, friend has flashed the alpha cm7 onto his phone, i'm just wondering if anyone has had any issues flashing back to a stock firmware?
if not, what is the best rom to flash? to my knowledge, the bell firmwares do not re-partition properly or something.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] Where can I get the official JM1 Rom for GT-I9000HKDDBT

Hi all,
I was wondering where I can get the official JM1 ROM for GT-I9000HKDDBT and how to Flash it onto the I9000?
I want to try the 2.2 ROM but only if I can restore the current JM1 ROM on my phone just in case the 2.2 is not good.
Thanks in advance.

You can actually get (and flash) this via Kies (at least as long as Froyo isn't out officially) by changing everything back to JF3 in your registry.

[Q] JVB+Bootloaders -> JS8 Rom

Hi there,
I've got a quick question about the compatibility of JVB bootloaders, with Froyo roms.
I've flashed stock JVB+bootloaders, flashed Chainfire's kernel, then installed Faryaab's F1 rom.
However, i'm considering flashing back to Darky's JS8 rom.
Which steps do i need to take?
Something like the following, perhaps:
First put Darky's rom on my internal SD card
Flash Hardcore's Froyo kernel through ODIN
Don't let the phone reboot, pull battery
Enter recovery, flash Darky's rom?
Am i missing a few steps, perhaps?
Thanks in advance.
I would also appreciate it if some one could answer OP's question. I'm not finding GB as stable as I hoped.
The new bootloaders are compatible with froyo and even eclair thus you dont have to flash the old ones. nevertheless i would recommend to do a clean install which means you should flash any stock froyo Firmware with repartition first and then flash any Kernel with cwm in order to flash the rom you want

Cheers, that's the answer i was hoping for .
Considering the modem, my guess is that it shouldn't be an issue to leave the JVK modem intact?

no it shouldnt. but if you flash a custom rom afterwards it will be changed anyway
JVK is a good modem .

Rogers tab 7" convert to phone questions

hi all
i picked up a used rogers galaxy tab 7".upgraded to 2.3.3 official via kies.
GT-P1000R
rooted it.
unlocked it.
now i wish to use the phone capabilities and have a few questions.
i see in a couple posts that you no longer have to flash a complete rom,just a modem.
is that info correct?
i see that the jm2 modem seems to work best with the rogers tab,so do i just flash the modem with odin and that gives me the voice capability.
or do i need to flash a complete rom(European)?
also there is no dialer program so where do i get that at?or does it come with the modem flash.
is there a better modem than jm2 for the rogers tab?or the bell i9000 modem?
i am in canada
thanks,jeff

Careful what you flash though, if it's from XDA any ROM should do you okay but Samsung official ROMs may contain locked boot loaders. Catch up on some reading before doing anything.
Also i suggest that you do a complete backup of your tab before flashing anything else so that you could revert back in case of issues. Stock ROGERS firmware is hard to find. And if you do a backup I wouldn't mind a copy of it as long as you keep your personal information out. As a matter of fact, what i am after is a un-rooted fully stock ROGERS ROM. As i have deleted my original backup, and would like to revert completely back to stock, I would be very thankfull if you could help. But none the less you should do a complete backup, something like the roto or nandroid backups.
Try the OVERCOME rom, it's a great place to start as a noob to flashing, they have very detailed tutorials and the ROM is good.
EDIT: And the OVERCOME rom does work with the bell i9000 modem just fine for phone calls. Although the volume on the tab is not the greatest for a speakerphone.

darned,i rooted and unlocked it earlier this week.
i definitely would have done a stock backup for you.
can i unroot?i used oden and one of the cf rooting images.
unlocked using galaxy s unlock from market.
can i even revert back to stock?if so i will do a backup.
i have done nothing else to the stock rogers 2.3.3
i searched my hardrive but kies must delete the firmware after flashing.

Thanks for the offer. But no need to go through all of that unless you can un root with something like super one click (fast and easy, but I don't think that will work for you). If your tab is still under warranty you might want to learn how to root and unroot and restock and such (its all covered in the forums). Otherwise I don't want you playing with your tab and have a "bad" flash trying to help me out. Do read up in the dev section before you start flashing custom ROMs.
That said if you do feel comfortable flashing and decide to make a backup for yourself I definitely wouldn't mind a copy.

hi
not scared of bricking the tab,i have been flashing samsungs for the last couple years,captivates etc.my last tab i did a supposed gps fix which ended in a bootloop.
i managed to get it back but with a modified 2.2 firmware.then kies would not let me upgrade to 2.3.3(unofficial firmware error)
my problems have always been actually returning to stock.
in recovery i have the orange clockwork recovery that has an option to do factory reset.will this take me back to unrooted and unlocked???
if so consider it done.
i will need direction to do a full backup after that.
jeff
Doing a hard reset will NOT un-root or re-lock your device (as far as I know). The factory reset will clear the data and cache and should not touch the system. You have to un-root your device using the method you rooted it with or something along those lines.
As far as a backup is concerned, creating a system backup has been covered in the forums before. There is plenty of detailed instructions on performing a backuphave a look at the Roto Backup method.
Just picked up a galaxy tab ( rogers )
gt-p1000r
firmware 2.2
all stock
no root
no unlock
I would like to "give back" something
for all the HELLp you guys have given via these forums
( i swear all my grey hair started once i dumped my blackberry and went samsung and found this site! )
Anyway
If you are still looking for the a copy of the STOCK system before I start to play...
I will try to figure out how to make a copy for you

2.3.5 upgeade?

Hi guys,
My friend has a Galaxy S I9000 running on UXKH2 2.3.3 firmware with Rogers Canada. Can you let me know what is the safe 2.3.5 firmware to upgrade to? Thanks.
In my opinion there's no "safe" or rather fully stable stock 2.3.5 firmware at this moment because of phone.apk bug.
I would flash JVT, the latest one.
ya just flash jvt but use kg3 modem and csc files. install phone fix as zip from sd card. and no forces closes....Ive been running this since it was available with no issues....unlocked phone on Rogers btw.
i've seen people talk about the phone.apk bug, but i havent had any bug with stock JVT + CF-Root 4.3.
is there a way to replicate the bug to see if i have it?

[Q] Flash I9000M to stock

Hi everyone,
My menu and back buttons have stopped working on my SaskTel I9000M (same model as Bell). I am currently running Team ICSSGS RC4.2 with Semaphore ICS 1.0.
I need to get back to stock as I doubt they will honor my warranty if it has custom ROM on it. I have tried installing a stock rom in the past, but the bootloader always says I9000 rather than I9000M.
Thank you.
