Restoring I9000 to stock

Purchased a pre rooted Galaxy S with darkys lastest rom installed.
Wanting to sell said phone to a store. They wont accept it unless its on stock rom
how do i know what would be the original firmware and how to set it all back to the norm. The phone is UK Unlocked.
Seriously needing help.
Any love?

go to samfirmware and download JPY then flash it with odin

much love to you.
any chance you know of a guide
i dont know my way around odin

They wont accept it unless its on stock rom
Its broken warranty that's why they wont accept it .
One hope they mean stock rom not a network branded rom that would be difficult to find .
Stock = Samsung rom
Network = the customized rom for individual network s

if you download SGS toolbox then touch "product code" and that will tell you what your on just now i.e XEU and also what product code is in your "backup.nv file" My phone was originally branded to Vodafone UK and stored in my backup NV file is the product code I9000HKDVOD with the VOD representing Vodafone. Hope this helps

downloading i9000XXJPY then will flash via odin
will report results. Much thanks in advance

I had to brick it first for it to let me flash but it worked
Thank you all

Regarding the modem, I found a link for you:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010116
These modems are all CWM flashable .zips
You say your country isn't officially supported?
It would help to know which country that is.
Good luck though!

I dont think it could be modem problem i have flashed another modem it couldn't fix the probem i am from pakistan, it was working perfactly when i bought the phone but by mistake i flashed a wrong rom that damaged the IMEI and baseband both were null/null and unknown then i flashed a modem i recovered IMEI and baseband, which ever i9305 lte stock rom i flashed it doesnt automatically installed the modem i have to flash modem seperately, it also doesnt stick on GSM only when i reboot it automatically switch to lte/gsm/wcdma auto mode that doesn't detect the network until i refresh the signals by turning on and off flight mode

A guess based upon the last reply .
Your EFS folder is wrong or damaged .
Suggest you flash the correct stock firmware that came with the phone .

GT-i9305 does not support initialising

Read the IMEI post in I9305 development .
No help then you require a service centre .
By EFS i meant whatever folder holds that data on I9305 .

[HELP] No internet (mobile data) on SentinelROM and CM10.1

Hi guys
Yesterday I was able to flash SentinelROM successfully
I was very happy until when I went out and disconnected from my wifi, I realized that there was no internet connection
Tried to restore APN settings to default, but to no avail
Took out the simcard and put into my iphone, data was fine
So I reflash stock ROM, data worked
Reflash Sentinel, data didn't work
Flashed CM10.1, data also didn't work, although APN settings have been restored to default
Phone and sms worked though..
So now I'm stuck with stock
Could anybody please help?
Just so you know, I'm on O2 UK
Many thanks

Thank you..
I did some reading
The stock firmware which I'm using on my phone has these details (it's Germany - DBT):
PDA: I9305XXBME3
CSC: I9305DBTBMF1
MODEM: I9305XXBME1
which is the same as describe in sammobile.com (the latest)
As I'm in UK and using O2, according to sammobile.com, the details for the latest firmware (O2U):
PDA: I9305XXBMA3
CSC: I9305O2UBMA1
MODEM: I9305XXBLL5
Should I just flash the modem XXBLL5 onto my phone?
Or should I flash I9305XXBMA3_I9305O2UBMA1_O2U.zip stock firmware?
Please advise

Try these
CSC: I9305O2UBMA1
MODEM: I9305XXBLL5

I'll try that and we'll see :good:

I have downloaded the modem file, i.e. XXBLL5.zip, but I can't find that specific CSC file for I9305 although I've done a lot of research..
So I flashed anyway the I9305XXBMA3_I9305O2UBMA1_O2U.zip stock firmware, but no internet at all although with this stock ROM..so I imagine it won't work on Sentinel as well..

I have a similar issue but nothing apart from flashing CM10.1 works
So far tried about 6 different ROMs, all built for i9305 and ALL have no data connection but wifi works faultless. Reflash CM10.1 and I get my data connection back. Which is a pain as I really liked Pandorium with Perseus kernel and JKay framework so I can tweak away
Did a factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik between all flashing. All ROMs install and run perfectly on wifi, just no data connection. Reflash CM10.1 ...... again. And all my problems go away. On T-Mobile/EE/Orange in UK
It appears, after much reading, it could be linked to an incorrect CSC (Country Code). So you might have to flash the CSC code for your specific Country AND mobile carrier
No data connection error is due to the modem is set-up for a different country and mobile carrier, so obviously it can't connect to what it can't find .....
Now I'm just trying to get my head around CSC flashing and tracking down methods that don't NEED a Samsung firmware

CSC is the customer setup configuration .
Network settings for different networks .
See the CSC post .
jje

I just don't understand..why does it work with stock ROM..but not with Sentinel and CM10.1?
I mean..we do not change the CSC and modem after flashing those custom ROMs, do we?
There are lists of modems and CSCs here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26530885#post26530885
I am eager to test them, but I fear those CSCs and modems are for I9300, which would brick my I9305. Please advise

I'll give them a go
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda app-developers app

I have done the following:
1. changed CSC to BTU and modem to XXBLL5 - mobile internet worked with stock ROM, but didn't work with Sentinel ROM
2. changed CSC to O2U and modem to XXBLL5 - mobile internet worked with stock ROM, but didn't work with Sentinel ROM
FYI, I'm on O2 UK (pay monthly/post pay),
~ edit APN and/or reset APN to default settings - nothing happened - mobile internet didn't work on both CSC and modem configs
HOWEVER, when I inserted an O2 prepaid/pay as you go sim card,
~ reset APN to default settings - mobile internet worked!!
Reinsert the O2 pay monthly sim, internet won't work ~ reset APN - still didn't want to work..
What more can I do...

I've tried all possible modems...none of them worked..

Yup..
I've tried 3 different AOSP ROMs...the internet just didn't wanna work..
For now I have to settle with stock based ROMs..

I couldn´t get mobile data connection in my i9300 with this rom. I tried a new APN profile with the appropiate settings and information and my mobile data began working. Hope it helps.

[Q] Wrong Baseband? (Virgin UK vs Orange/T-Mobile)

Hi,
Info
I have a GT-I9305, Android 4.3, SentinelROM Version 5.00 with Build date of Oct 1st 2013.
Kernel 3.0.64-CM-gbc8f4c9, [email protected] #1 and
Baseband Version : I9305DXALI7
Background :
My Samsung S3 LTE was initially locked to Orange/EE, which I did a network unlock by downgrading to 4.1.1 and using that famous menu command *#19...Subsequently I upgraded to Android 4.3
Issue
I am using Virgin Network here in UK, but the phone always shows Orange/T-Mobile signal. Also, it stops sending SMS messages after a few days. If I put the SIM Card back in Nexus 4, it correctly shows Virgin Network on the phone. (I am aware that Virgin is a virtual network provider using Orange/T-Mobile).
Question
Is there a way I can show Virgin network on the phone? Currently it doesn't even detect Virgin network, if I do a search available networks. Is that due to an incorrect Baseband Version? If yes, could someone point me to the correct one? I did search on http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ but they all seemed to be for Android 4.1.1 and not 4.3 for I9305
I have tried flashing a few other basebands as well from this link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010116
But still not able to get Virgin network. Phone does seem to be working fine but I dont want to get suddenly caught out again whereby it stops sending SMS's again!
Thanks
Sam

You require a CSC that includes Virgin .
Try CPW carphone warehouse csc .
Or ask Virgin for the APN settup .
Android 4.3 is not released by Samsung so you will not find it .

Hi,
APN setup seems to be fine (goto.virginmobile.co.uk), SMSC shows as "+447958879890",145 ..How do I get CarPhoneWarehouse's CSC?
Sorry, don't know much about CSC so am a bit ignorant about CSC..
Cheers

Modem CSC post or in a stock rom from sammobile.com .
BUK UK probably has CPW csc
Sorry i always delete CSC from roms otherwise i could post one .
All i say is that the CPW csc did have Virgin inside at one time .

Hi JJEgan,
I am going to use the CSC Changer App, currently taking a backup of the phone. Is there anyway to quickly check the current CSC? (by checking some file in system directory etc or viewing build.prop etc to figure out the current CSC?) Asking this as USSD Codes don't seem to be running on my phone and I always get Connection Problem or Invalid MMI Code error message. So that means I am unable to run *#1234#
Cheers!
PS : Just tried to use CSC Changer App, but realized that either the phone should be on Android version lower than 4.2.2 or the ROM should be a Samsung Stock ROM! And in my case I am on a Custom ROM and on Android 4.3

http://ykkfive.blogspot.com/2011/11/samsung-csc-code-reference-3.html#.UmV5lPnBPeM
Got the list of CSC's above..What should I do next? And against UK is mentioned as : BTC, BTU, CPW, H3G, O2I, O2U, ORA, OXA*, TMU, TSC, VIR, VOD, XEU
So CarPhoneWarehouse is there in the above list and VIR (I assume VIR means Virgin Mobile) is also there..So how do I flash or what do I flash now?

Thanks JJEgan, I did look at the thread you mentioned and that's where I got the CSC Changer idea..but stayed back from actually doing it as I realized that the 2nd step mentioned about factory resetting the phone..The issue that I have currently is that to find out about my current CSC etc, I need to run a USSD Code which gives me an error message (about invalid MMI Code). So I would either probably leave it at that or better still get a new Orange contract SIM and port the number back from Virgin to Orange!
