Flashing modem XXJPY over XXJVE - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!I'm back on darky 9.5 (after trying v10 rc4) and I remember a much better battery life on this...the only difference is that the first time I had a different modem: XXJPY.
So, can I flash XXJPY directly over the newest XXJVE? can i do that simply via CMW or do i have to flash with odin?
Thanks!

Modem can be flashed on top no problem. Odin or zip with CWM is fine either way.

[Q] How to downgrade speedmod kernel from K13e to K13c

Hi All,
Reason for this question is that, first of all I wanted to root my newly bought SGS GT-I9000 (2.2 DDJP6) So, flashed speedmod kernel K13E (latest). Later, when I wanted to install MIUI rom, as per the instruction one need to flash K13C kernel.
But, whenever I try to flash SM - K13C kernel on top of K13E, I tend to soft-brick my phone (BSOD). I need to once again flash K13E to get back my SGS to work.
So, in order for me to get on to MIUI rom, I have two options...
1) Downgrade K13E to K13C kernel. And continue to flash MIUI rom.
2) Restore my kernel to stock kernel first. Then start flashing K13C and continue to flash MIUI rom.
Can somebody please suggest, which option would be best and highly feasible?
Thanks in advance for the responses
Prabhu.
i dont think it matters what version of speedmod you are on, its only so you have CWM to flash the cyanogen kernel.
but anyway if you want to downgrade just download the one you need k13c and flash it thru CWM or ODIN and it will overwrite your previous kernel
I did try to flash K13C on top of K13E. Odin just froze at <ID:0/022> zImage step.
Please find the snapshot attached.
how long has it been like that. ?? try to find a CWM version and see if that works.
or just flash miui with your current kernel
If u want to get on miui, follow the guide on theandroidsoul.com/net.....good to have a clean start with ezbase2.0
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
I tried the CMW version of speedmod k13c and was successful. But, while flashing the cm7-galaxys-initial-kernel.tar from odin again, I got stuck in the below attached odin screen.
Is there any CWM version for the cm7-galaxys-initial-kernel.tar? What is that I am doing different?

Would jvo modem work on froyo2.2?

Hi I have stock rom of froyo 2.2 (this one on the link)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&highlight=kc1
i really dont like the kc1 modem i was wondering if JVO modem would work.
It said its for CWM3
but can that be just flashed using odin ??
or do i have to have Clockwork mod 3?? how do i install this?? I checked my recovery (stock recovery) and it seems like the stock recovery is 3e version.. :S
how do i install cwm3 if i have 3e version..
I upgraded to GB using this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...1#post13566808
and upgraded to JVO modem using recovery update thingy
modem was great (GPS locks fast etcs) but it was too unstable (i prob did something wrong while installing it? i dono ) :and it kept shutting off the phone
so i installed the stock 2.2 froyo ugkc1
please help me
thanks
In my experience modems are pretty interchangable. I like the KC1 modem myself for Bell it seems to work the best. Maybe it depends on your area.
Follow this thread to flash modem for CWM any version.

If you are running Froyo then you will want to stick with CWM2 I think. Speedmod is an easy way to get this. If you want to use a modem file that is not listed on that link you can download any CWM2 zip file and open it and insert your modem.bin into it. Then flash that using CWM.
Hi thank you for your reply.
I dono where to downlaod the JVO modem with CWM2 version
also if i use speedmod will I get CWM2? even tho i have stock e3 recovery installed??/
Yes, speedmod will give you CWM2. Just download speedmod for ODIN and flash it as PDA. It will work on all froyo builds.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=822756
To get the modem file just extract the modem.bin out of the CWM3 zip file you have. Then download any CWM2 modem zip file and put that modem.bin into it. The only difference between those files are the modem.bin inside them.
I wish I knew a way to flash just the modem.bin with ODIN. There may be a way, but I have not found it yet. CWM is the only documented way that I have found unless the ROM comes in 3 parts. Then you can just flash the PHONE portion with Odin.
One other trick I did was I flashed with a ROM that included the modem that I wanted, then used Odin to upgrade to JVH but didn't flash the Phone portion, just the PDA and CSC. This worked good and didn't require CWM or rooting at all. Now I have a 2.3.3 stock ROM with a custom Modem without any hacks.
-start Odin.
-Select "phone" and fetch the modem.bin file.
-Only thing checked should be "Auto Reboot"
-Put phone in download mode
-Plug in USB
-hit Start
Awesome, Thanks Pr3torian. I have thought about doing that a few times but wasn't sure it would work. I always figured it was that easy but could not find any documentation to support it. All the Phone downloads are always md5 or zip format so didn't want to brick my phone.

[Q] Quick JUWE 5.2 Question

Hi All,
I'm pretty new flashing custom firmware and have only done about 2-3 full firmware flashes to my phone. I had ran a few searches but haven't found an exact answer. Is it safe to flash directly to JUWE 5.2 from CWM (Gingerbread JVK 2.3.3) without upgrading to JVQ first? On JUWE's Rom forum it states, from gingerbread that you can just update through CWM, but on his extended installation guide, it states a few things differently. Specs below:
Bell Mobility I9000m Vibrant
Model Number:GT-I9000
Firmware Version:2.3.3
Baseband Version:I9000UGKC1 (Flashed this separately when I first installed GB due to poor signal.)
Kernel Version:2.6.35.7-I9000XXJVK-CL75655 se infra SEI-28 #2
Build Number:GINGERBREAD.XXJVK
CWM 3.0.0.5
Rooted
Any information at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance to all!
yes u can upgrade directly but in juwe's manual he clearly states that u go to stock jvq first before u flash his rom.. follow the manual, its safer..
Ok, so the safest option (which is what I'm looking for), would be to flash the stock JVQ with Odin and then Use Odin again to flash JUWE's tar file by placeing it in the PDA section of odin.
I'm on Juwe's 5.2,
1) you need to Flash Stock JVQ with Gingerbread bootloaders , there are a few threads on dev part of SGS forum
2) then you need a kernel that has CWM recovery [because you install Juwe's rom, through the CWM] - you can use Chainfire's JVQ kernel for that
3) Copy Juwe's Rom on your internal SD and install through CWM, but clear cache and such
My personal recommendation is not to be afraid to try. If the 3-button combination works it is very hard to brick your SGS, so just follow install guides to the letter and all will be great.

Ok, Answer is > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158783 find there a JVR modem, and flash it via Recovery
Thanks for the quick reply. I am trying it now and update once done.
Dfolt,
Thanks a tonn. Things are working fine now. I did not realize the fact that I must not use ODIN for flashing the modem for cyanogen and another mistake I did was that I took the modem from stock XXJVR.
and, 1 thing, dont flash modems (if u are using cyanogenmod) via Odin .
Modems for CM7 are flashable only via Recovery
Hi,
here you find a lot of modems and bootloader for cm7-->
