I have 3 SGS i9000 GT devices and it seems there is something strange happening with my newest device..
I thought flashing 2.3.3 with bootloader would help but it doesn't
This happend with 2.2 also..
I have installed stock 2.3.3, copied ROM (turbo GBread) flashed k13d kernel, gone into CWM and selected ROM installed it fine. Then am only able to see Recovery 3e !! CWM just dissapears!
If someone could please help me at all.
I thought loading a bootloader edition of JVK would fix the problem but it doesn't.
My other 2 GT devices (12 months old and 4 months old) do not have this same problem. I have no idea how to even decide what is the problem and who to ask, Voodoo CWM couldnt load on 2.2, I sent supercurio voodoo logs at his request but have not heard back.
Is this a known problem? Curio asked what the stock was on phone but I am unsure as I flashed darky rom to it as soon as I opened the box. If you need anymore information I would love it, I am sick of flashing it, Ive done it literally over 200 times in the last year and feel like a n00b all over again!

BUMP!! >.<
Look around some custome ROM to flash and lagfix it, after that you have gain root permission and many stuffs u can play around
What's the best way to root stock galaxy s with 2.3.4?
First of all you have to download a 2.3.4-firmware (I'd suggest JVS, it's 2.3.5) and then flash it with Odin (you know how? If no, just let me know and I'll explain it ).
After that just look for a kernel that fits your firmware and also flash it with Odin (PDA-filed) and you're done.

Should be fine with it, can you direct me to the Odin rom in question please? I take it that its pre-rooted with clockwork recovery?
You could post the steps as it's for a friend and I can direct your post to him.
Hey guys I have a related question regarding kernels, posting here to save creating more threads.
I've come from Froyo 2.1.1 with Voodoo Kernel. Only reason I've updated to JVR 2.3.4 is because I've read this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1225879 and realised I can have glorious Voodoo sound again on newer firmware.
So I've gone ahead and followed this guide to update firmware: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139050
However I was unsuccesfuly in installing madrooster's kernel, through Odin I semi bricked and through CWM it gave an error. Perhaps because I am not rooted? However I was successful in installing Dark Core 2.6, I read that this had Voodoo sound but upon installing the Voodoo control plus and running it, no controls were available. It said phone needed to be rooted to load the driver....I'm really lost, I need help
Tried to flash kernel - Think I bricked phone
I tried to flash a dark core kernel using SGS kernel app. Phone rebooted and showed funny colours on the screen with a robotic voice giving commentary every now and again. Now just keeps rebooting and showing random colours on the screen. I have not backed up the phone, but contacts etc are on google. Can anyone help?
Hi
Just bought my first android - captivate. Its on firmware 2.2 build froyo.uckb1 baseband i897uckb1 and kernel ver 2.6.32.9.
I wish to install samsung galaxy s i9000 gingerbread stock samsung rom on this. So, downloaded firmware I9000DDJV9 ## 2.3.3 2011 July
I9000ODDJV9
from sammobile.
Used clockworkmod recovery. Booted by holding vol up down and power. Did back up, reistall package, factory reset, partition wipe and update from zip.
It gave message opening file..installing..
After that it just seemed to get stuck. Half an hour passed and nothing happened.
What have I done wrong. Pls advise. Fortunately, I removed the battery botted into clockwork and restored.
Thanks
where to begin?
first of all:
you tried flashing a rom intended for ODIN/Heimdall in CWM
secondly, DO NOT flash straight i9000 firmware from sammobile on your captivate!
screen rotation will not work, home/back buttons will not work properly, there will be no voice when you make a call, and worst of all, you will be flashing i9000 bootloaders!
do not do it. we really do not want to have you opening another thread about you bricking your phone for doing something so stupid.

Thanks for saving me. Can u sugest any custom i9000 based gb rom for captivate. This is my first android and I am trying to learn...
You'll have to read First and last few pages of the threads and get an inclination of what people are saying about the ROM. Noone can tell you what you'll like the best, its all subjective.
On that note: I hear mosaic is nice
Lmao

Im using SauRom... its based on i9000 and its really good
use this method ....its the easiest way

Because I wanted to use Captivate outside of the US, I was also looking for ways to flash i9000 roms.
I found some modded roms, most of which were odin based, but none of them worked properly. After multiple bricks, I just gave up and installed CM7 instead. It works like a charm without any problems and it's not missing any functionality from the i9000 rom.
I just resurrected my captivate. I think I am going to flash CM7.

why do you need i9000 rom for outside US use? the only difference between i9000 rom and i897 roms are that i9000 supports HSUPA....everything else is same..
ofcourse i9000 has more features....but to use it outside US, you just need to unlock it...
hello fellow peeps, quick question.... I've got cm7 with i897 bootloaders and would like to flash i9000 bootloader from this thread..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23524416&postcount=916 and then flash current cm7 nightly. Im trying to rid my wife's SOD situation. So i was wondering if this is the correct steps. revert back to stock with oneclick...then flash the i90000 bootloader from the the thread i linked, then cm7+gapps+glitch?
Edit #2: So this is how it all worked for me. I reverted back to stock. then I did the i9000 jvt tool which rebooted afterwards into recovery. So then from there, i flashed cm7 nightly+gapps+glitch. rebooted and then BAM!!!! Restored user apps with Titianium. Thanks and sorry for being a loose butt hole *workaholics quote.
I don't think that would fix SoD but ya your steps are correct. Note it doesn't have to be KB2 package any Samsung package (froyo, GB, i897, i9000) would work.
Thanks ^^^^ I've corrected first post and link.
Its been 4 days now and no SOD. Maybe in my case the i9000 bootloader may have fixed it.
Hi guys,
First of all, I apologize in advance if this isn't the correct place and/or thread title for my question. I've rarely posted in this forum as I'm usually able to find what I'm looking for.
I'll try to describe the issue fully so bear with me. If you're not patient, skip the next two paragraphs and go to the problem.
I bought my Galaxy S more than two years ago; back then it had Android 2.1 and I believe I also flashed to 2.1.1 via Samsung Kies.
I later flashed Froyo via Odin, rooted with 1ClickLagFix and installed a ton of apps. I haven't updated anything for more than a year, perhaps year and a half. I recently uninstalled many applications I wasn't using, including the lag fix, unrooted and began preparing to flash something newer. I didn't have the time though, so I dropped the project, and besides, the phone is working much smoother without all the unnecessary crap I had before.
Yesterday I decided to finish the job and flash DarkyROM 11 Black Edition. I rooted the phone again using Z4root, installed CWM ROM Manager and flashed CW recovery. I need the recovery in order to flash CM9 and then the ROM per the installation instructions for DarkyROM.
At this point I might as well wait for v.12, but I'll still need the CW recovery I guess. Or I may flash v.11 as planned; I still haven't decided.
The problem: CW recovery is flashed, but when I reboot I go to 3e recovery instead (tried with the 3 buttons or boot to recovery from ROM Manager, same result). I then copied the CW recovery file directly on the SD card and renamed it update.zip (it was recovery-update.zip) and tried to apply it. Didn't work. As far as I remember it said it couldn't verify file integrity or something. I can check for sure if you'd like.
Here's what I'm running (I'll put what I see, let me know if you need more):
GT-I9000
Firmware: 2.2
Baseband version: I9000XXJPP
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
[email protected] #1
Build number: FROYO.XFJP7
ROM Manager (installed v. 5.5.1.4 yesterday) says current recovery is ClockworkMod 2.5.1.2.
I'd appreciate any insight. I don't have much experience flashing my phone, so if you have a solution, it would be best to include not only links to relevant threads but also an explanation as to what steps I should follow in my specific case.
Thanks in advance!

Can't do... Kies cannot upgrade the firmware since I'm on a custom ROM (or because it didn't match my country, I don't quite remember the reason).
I was following the installation instructions for DarkyROM for Froyo; it says I should have it rooted with CWM and use the recovery to flash CM9 and the ROM itself afterwards, so I believe Froyo isn't the issue. The kernel perhaps? Have no idea, I'm a novice more or less. I do know how to follow instructions though, so I'm not a complete idiot
Besides geting a newer ROM with newer Adnroid version I'd also like to clean up the mess I've been creating for the past year and a half. Maybe flashing a stock ROM and then DarkyROM would be easier. I'm looking for the most time-efficient method.
