There have been people here who were adventurous enough to go ahead & flsh their phones to whatever they wanted. A few of them got their phones BRICKED. Cant to ahead, cant go back, STUCK. They went & complained at the service centers that they were trying to update via Kies, the official Samsing software & god knows what went wrong, its BRICKED. I think they ended up convincing them. Well, tjis is the gist of what I have learned from the forums, its your call, you take it. I am from Hubli, Karnataka, India. I hated the stock ROM, updated to JG4 via Kies, Hated it, Updated to JPC, Loved it, Updated to JPH, aahhh, beautiful.
There's a thread here that points to the Stock DDJG4 ROM for India if you want to revert back.

Like I said guys, its YOUR CALL.
PS : JPC & JPH are Betas & 23rd is the date set for official Froyo release.
hi praneeth.. nenu update chesanu .. its safe .. dont worry.. update to JG4 and i will provide u rooted rom which is suitable for us... and i will also provide unroot rom which gives us our warranty back. so dont worry...............
Hi Ragin can u post ur information which firmware u flashed and which rom u put...

Guys, I am from Bangalore and living with JG4. I havent applied any lagfix or GPS fix.
I am generally happy with JG4 but yea, havent seen a offical update in a while.
I am rooted: Search for 1-click Root/Unroot for Galaxy S
With a click you can root yourself and can unroot too - for warranty reasons.
Never observed a lag as such but I use AutoKiller Memory. Keeps my phone smooth; no lags.Try the aggressive setting.
GPS works good, fix is fast and position perfect. I use Google Navigation [BRUT], yes you can use the US Google navigation here in India with spoken street names - hows that. Recently I did a Bangalore - Pondicherry drive just on Google Navigation and it was awesome. I had all internal village roads mapped and navigated me through it. As you already know, the stock official Google Navigation doesnt work.

KingHarsha - here you go
Search 'brut google maps 4.4' in google. Use the first link to load BRUT versions while keeping your stock google maps and navigation versions. Use the Stockified versions if you want to replace teh stock ones. I didnt do that, and I am comfortable with BRUT versions sitting near the stock ones.
No you have to pay data charges. But seeing that you are on this phone, I guess you already have data enabled on your PC. And yea you stay in chennai, so definitely you have 3G as well. I switched to dreaded BSNL just to get 3G services.
But dont worry abt data too much. Surprisingly it doesnt uze that much. If you have wifi at home, just setup your flightplan and it will download tiles along your way. tiles are big enough so if you detour or so, you are still within the downloaded area. U need to enable cache in brut menu.
Personally, I dont use the voice directions in city. It doesnt give instructions but it says a sentence. thats too much to decode while driving. But that problem exists in original sw as well. I kept it on during my roadtrip and I had great experience. First thing you will notice is that its smooth, your car doesnt update in jumps or maps dont move in jumps, they just smoothly rotate or move. Alternate routes, layers on teh way...its all there and its great.
Best part is oneways etc gets updated frequently and automatically since u connect to the cloud. When a flyover construction started, within a month it started routing me with the official detour posted on the road by traffic authorities. So thats great.
Well, thats my experience though.
Just search for 'one click root unroot galaxy S' on this forum. Not sure if it will work for you since you are already rooted.
Guys,
Looks like i am taking the dive and installing lagfix. I see 2 options - oneclick lay fix, or cflagfix.
Do you guys recommend any one of these?
Also in cant so 3buttons recovery and need to do that using clockmod's reboot to recovery option. Song if things don't work while Installation in will have to use odin only to reflash ddjg4. Something in have never done.
Song in was thinking of following sequence titanium backup - clockmod backup- odin reflash ddjg4 - install oneclick root - install oneclick lagfix / cflagfix - titanium restore.
If things break while installation of lagfix like in have seen phone not rebooting for many after installation of fix, then abort and reflash ddjg4 again.
Plz send in your comments. Any better way to do this. You can also say dont be so scared as you might have guessed i am sh$%the scared to do this and gathering my guts right now.

Stock telstra right?
The best place to find australian firmwares, telstra in particular, is whirlpool. XDA seems to ignore us
Go to the whirlpool thread "Stock I9000T Telstra Rom". There are links there from me as well as links to Doc Dan's hosted JH3. I would give a link but... my post count >.>
I highly recommend you use Doc Dan's files! I posted some, asked for feedback and never received it :/ Thats after 50+ downloads too
This is the stock 2.1. Havent seen DVJP8 yet. Coincidentally, does anyone know how to get/create these flashable ROM's? im sure people would like JP8 available for reflash instead of JH3, and samfirmwares doesn't have OUR JP8. Or OUR JH3 even. (samfirmwares.com: ignoring the telstra galaxy S even moreso than XDA developers )
Telstra is 2.2.1 now
Modem it comes with is DVJP9
Recommend it over 2.1 anyday
I recommend following my guide on how to upgrade to a custom rom
Stock is a waste of time

Network roms are only available if a user saves them and uploads them or at least shares .Most users do not bother so XDA never gets them .
Likewise unless the firmware is available from a user that has downloaded it Samfirmware cannot get a copy .
Both XDA and Samfirmware rely on you the user to supply the base roms they have no secret source of roms .

Thats fairly understandable
May i ask how this is done? all ive seen is system dumps, which i understand are useless for anything 'cept custom rom development
Either backing up rom through one of the apps available or saving a downloaded rom via Kies .Dont know if the spoof Kies method below still works .

Gday thanks for all your replys I have found a few links at whirlpool forum unfortunately there all no go anymore and I have tried the spoof method with no such luck either the reason I need the original telstra firmware is my touch screen is playing up and I was going to reload the original firmware and see if I can get it fixed under warranty as for its only about 4 months old I have tried other firmware and still have the same problem with the touch screen

Search for the thread "Stock I9000T Telstra Rom" on whirlpool. It should have posts that are both good. JH3 in zip folder is unpassworded, the .rar has asgardxda as the password as stated in the aussie firmwares thread (it is where i got a copy from). Also im pretty sure doc dans also works, there is a link at the bottom of that thread. I would LOVE to post direct links for you but my post count angers the xda
I certainly know mine (listed under "Orenthi", old screen name i would like to phase out / kill with fire) are still up and running. Over 50 downloads and not one bit of feedback XD. If it is bricking or failing to work i would love to know...
Anyways, i saved a kies downloaded ROM today, telstra JP8. Thanks JJEgan for the assistance in that . Seems right, slighly larger than telstra JH3, has all the files as seen in JH3 and no dbdata so like JH3 it isnt a full ROM (was expected). How would one make this odin flashable by the way? is it as simple as making it .tar.md5 and what application is recommended by xda for this?
edit: scratch that, have uploaded jp8. Tested it on my phone too!
Link can be found on whirlpool thread Samsung GT-I9000 series Aussie Firmwares, p10, 13th post hope it works for everyone else
Oh and apparently xda likes to know bootloader status. it takes the phone from 2e recovery to 3e recovery so ill go out on a limb and say does include bootloaders

Hi, Thanks if your reading this and answering me i really can understand what to do so ill just ask so many stupid question and see if you know some of them. so First how do i know if i have a GSM / CDMA?. Next if i got either the two one what is the best way to optimize my Tab. in a certain way that i can root/flash/rom/hack or etc. and my main concern is that if i was to return all it back like a factory restore can it be done?.
So in anyway possible help me i bought my SGT in Philippines and we get like a Open Line SGT i can use all our Telcom providers and use Different Sim Cards so i really can't tell what to do first.

You have the GSM Tab, I'm sure. CDMA is NOT very common in the Philippines, and you have a sim card slot, CDMA doesn't have this.
Also, unless your Tab was illegally imported from somewhere, you have the international version.

I recommend you try out your stock ROM first, and read heavily on these forums. Know your Tab, current firmware, etc..
Once you've decided to play around your tab's ROM, then follow these guidelines. NOTE: It is possible that you will end up with a very expensive paperweight (brick) if you make a mistake somewhere along the way. Tread carefully.
First, enter *#1234# in your phone dialer to get your Tab's firmware.
2nd: backup your data (in Kies) and apps (in Titanium Backup)
3rd: Root your device using SuperOneClick (this voids your warranty)
SuperOneClick with instructions can be found here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
4th: Verify that your "bootloader" is not locked. Last few releases by Samsung locked the bootloader so flashing the firmware may damage or brick your Tab.
You can use Bootloader patch to check. It's here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071&highlight=*#1234#
Again, read carefully and follow the directions..
5th: Finally, one of the best ROMs out there is Overcome. You will find all you need here. --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932082
I suggest you print out the included instructions (in pdf). You will also find all the links to files that you need in this thread.
I cannot stress further the gravity of your decisions... .. Follow the steps carefully and faithfully..
6th: If something goes wrong (I hope not), please don't blame me.
Best of luck!

Thanks for the warning i kinda know Bricking and doing this to Galaxy Tab is Voiding your Warranty but i was so stupid i cant tell if i am using GSM but now for what you told me GSM is a Tab that use Sim and for using my Tab now its kinda great but i wanna maximize my Tab so i can do different things and for now ill just read and read but still going to wait for more things and before i do this i am going to enjoy my Tab. Already Sold my iPad and i kinda want to know if SGT 7" is already good or ill be buying the new SGT 8.9 and 10.1 so for now thank you very much and already reading some files but wish some Filipino already tried this but i think ill do just fine i can understand some part but still need to read first and will ask again if need help. BTW are you a Filipino or ???
I'm a Filipino too.
Voiding your warranty should be no problem since you can unroot your phone back. Moreover, I'm pretty sure that you got the GSM one since as Sef pointed out, it's pretty rare for us to use a CDMA device (partly thanks to our backwards and slow internet back home).
Moreover, to optimize your device, just try the ROMs out. You should read the guides how to flash them, of course, whether you wanna use Heimdall or Odin.
Pinoy ako! Hehehe.. (Im Filipino too! LOL)
I feel the same way now about flashing.. I am confident in doing it but am still doing heavy research. Take note that some roms do not have all the features of the stock rom, and they have bugs too.
Maybe in a month or so, I`ll flash this tab and then update this thread.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Okay Thanks ill be doing it too in a few weeks or months just need to double check some details and if i make it success full ill make a guide how i did mine. wish someone in phil can make a video or guide . i keep hearing that using mod ROMs rocks. but still lets see what happen.
hi bro. im also in the phils. ive got my tab from smart for two months, and i'd say im quite satisfied with the stock rom. with all the posts i read from various threads regarding problems in installing custom roms (the latest, also here, regarding overcome sucking the tab's batt), im not fully convinced to try it. my two cents: why fix something that is not broken?
ive had my sonyericsson xperia x8 also for quite sometime now, and flashing it is much less complicated than doing it in the tab. i simply cant risk bricking my tab!
also,a wk ago i had my tab repaired in samsung head office because of dim display. they replaced the lcd even if my tab is already rooted. so rooting i think doesnt make you lose your warranty! they even upgraded my firmware. love the new date, time and weather widgets.
i will just wait for the gingerbread upgrade this may!

I just got a Galaxy Tab WiFi myself, but I did my research *before* I bought it. No Gingerbread is available, that I know of. There are not many alternative ROMs for the WiFi only model.
What did you use in your rooting attempt? The only two ways I know are with a Windows app or with z4root, an Android app. I haven't tried either one, here is a link to z4root on this forum.

No offense but if you're going to criticize you might as well not even comment to avoid any frustrations or arguments as a result. Thank you for the link, I was able to find z4 and lag fix yesterday.... applied both but i might roll back on the lag fix since I have no haptic feedback now unless anyone knows of a fix? I wasn't able to find anything on Google... wifi only tab and p1010 aren't too popular searches.

****ty Samsung , is it so hard to just make an official Gb for this little tab considering the workforce they have at their disposal.
At one point I had heard that the Sprint stock GB (2.3.4) update worked on the Wifi only tabs, but I don't have a wifi only to test with.
I haven't heard of any alternative roms for the wifi only version.

Check with Kies, see if you have a firmware update. I only have a P1000, but maybe it's similar.

EDIT: from other answers here the Sprint GB 2.3.4 ROM stock or rooted sounds the way to go, so it looks like this should work for you as it did for me on my Verizon CDMA tab.
It's hard to say for sure, experimentation is part of the fun, but killing the tab isn't. I didn't find any definitive answers on flashing a Sprint CDMA ROM on to a Verizon CDMA Galaxy Tab (for example), so I decided to try for myself:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255339
I suspect doing a FULL ROM flash would be a *very* bad idea (it seems doing that with a GSM ROM on other (non-GSM) tabs KILLS it). However, the technique I used was only to apply the kernel and filesystems, so I would *think* if you had a backup from before (always best to have a backup anyway, right?) you could always revert. You may want to look around and check to see if stock WIFI images are out there (I don't know for sure) but the Voodoo or CwM (ClockworkMod) recovery backups should be fine either way.
Then if you apply the filesystem and kernel files from 2.3.4 and they don't work you should be able to revert (I would assume, I can certainly flash back and forth on mine). I would *think* the kernel supports vanilla hardware + CDMA additionally (i.e. you don't need it, but it doesn't hurt), but may be fine.
But again, unless you're prepared to take the risk, I cannot say for sure, you can wait and see if anyone else chimes in, but that's my take.

I have the P1010 also and from what I've heard, the two models (P1010 and P1000) have different hardware which makes the latter model possible for the ginger update while ours likely will never get it.
Enjoy it for what it is. That's all I can say.

No offense but if you're going to criticize you might as well not even comment to avoid any frustrations or arguments as a result.

No offence but you are the one who was rude by bumping your topic after 2 hours and also accusing people who didnt answer as not courteous, so obviously you are going to get criticism.
Your problem is that you cant be bothered to go read or search and expect people to jump on your topic and bring all the info to you. This is XDA-developers, not tech support, try and at least help yourself first before demanding answers.
If anyone tests the spring gingerbread method and it works, please say so. xD Im too much of a coward to risk my tab.

You can save a flashable ROM in the sdcard. Then if the tab got bricked, you can insert the sdcard in and reflash again. But i don't recommend doing this because me myself never flashed my tab, only my nexus one.
Hello Gang,
I own a N7000 and I did the original 4.0.3 update via Kies. Boy am I dissappointed in how the Note runs now...not only me but everyone in my office which has one assigned to as well. I work for the trademarketing company for Samsung in Dominican Republic and I am not supposed to load a non-original ROM on my device but....screw it. That being said....I am wanting a stock like ROM, preferably with the new TouchWiz interface a-la-Note-II.
Any suggestions?
a 4.0.4 original rom kicks 4.0.3 anyday

OK....i found all the 4.0.4.......but.....none for United States......can u suggest one? I know they are multilanguage but....just wanna make sure.

BASEBAND: N7000WELP7
BUILD: IM74K.UBLPC
Note all at own risk, also of loosing warrantee. Also note cause its a company phone you can get FIRED for altering it.
Pause and think about that.
Companies work that way,and you wouldn't be the first.....Considering you work on intellectual property department you are compromizing your companies security by altering. You dont want that...
Perhaps best to ask your company when 404 is landing in your country and go that way.
If you dont care anyway here are the steps:
edit: read read read, also read stickies of forum. Be warned you become flash addict
step 1 Secure way back. Check if the original rom on phone is available, so you can always go back to condition as is now. Download it and save on safe location. You might need to check your csc, this can be found by dialing *#06# for emei, then dial *#272*yourimeihere#. That csc is the countries phone csc, probably Argentina. Updates are rolled out according to this csc. So as example if a rom is dbt, its either debitel or open germany. The rom then is a german rom. Just because your in country x doesnt mean phone is. You will note there are no us n7000 roms, as it was never launched in US.
Step 2 Secure efs, as this contains important info, you might need to restore before or after going back to current condition. Root your phone, make efs backup save on multiple locations.
How, see dr Ketans thread in sticky section development for root. See toolbox thread dr Ketan in general section for how to backup efs. Save multiple locations(on and off the phone)
Step 3 Download 4.0.4 rom of choice and flash it throught dr Ketans way in same thread as root. You need not root it, but its nice to do so. Flashin different csc roms can corrupt efs, which is another good reason to back it up.
Step 4 Test and enjoy!
Again, all at your own risk, I take no responsibility for your actions. You do this your fault.

Thanks Baz.....actually the company is pretty cool....my S2 is pimped out...but the only thing that they dint want is clients testing a modded phone...cause customers might expect what it doesnt have. I actually helped a fellow worker with an EOL (end of life) Ace and stuff. But let me check all that u mentioned....my s2 i just flashed without checking stuff and it runs awesome!
