[q] help! Sgs bricked? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey guys need ur help ^^
think my sgs is bricked tried to flash several stock roms but every time it freeze at dbdata.rfs
dunno what to do .. :S

Can you give some more info please. What ROMs and PIT? And does the phone boot at all?

personally i'd try darkyys ressurection rom with the pit that comes with it and repartition checked.
not had a hole yet that it hasnt gotten me out of.

It's not bricked, i've using a "update" ROM (most of ROM dumped from Kies spoofing) with re-partition under Odin => It's doesn't work because these update ROM doesn't in 99% of time the dbdata.rfs which is need for repartition.
If you want to use pit file and repartition, you must use a "Full" ROM like JPU ou XEN JS5 available on SamFirmware.

[Q] BlackScreen *WITH* DOWNLOAD mode working

Hi guys i searched for other threds before making this one but none of them had download mode working
i tried flashing jpy and jpx with odin using the 512 and the 813 pit files, my problem is that after showing the sgs screen(really effing loud) the screen goes dark and vibrates in a pattern that goes like ........1....2................1...2...........1............2 and repeats, i can accces both the download and recovery modes
Extra maybe important info:
came eclair jm4 flashed with kies then from jm7 i think with the bujp5 modem(the vodafone one) tried to flash jpy & jpx still stuck on darkscreen
in odin i only had the pit+pda checked with repartition, autoreboot and f.reset time ticked. Did i miss something?
I also tried to flash jpo, no dice.
Try to flash an other firmware (2.1)
Take it from samfirmware
They supply 3in1 packages that need to be put in only pda
Use pit 512
Repartition
If that worked, then try a 2.2(.1)

Where did you get jpy from? I got mine from samfirmware and had no dramas. Went from jm8 to jpy you could always flash a 2e recovery kernel cf root for example then install cwm so you can install custom jpy roms..i use darkys and love it
Got it working : D For any future reference flash jm8 with repartition on then jpy with repartition off...
on another note what do I do when I already have jpy working and want a clean instal of it plus different modem and kernel? (repartition on/off, do I use any pit files ?
Happy new year
can someone please tell me where to get these files from?
i've searched but keep getting the wrong pit or stock firmware..
i'm a noob and i'm confused, excuse me of my ignorance but i've tried sooo much lol
btw i have a bell I9000M which i think is my problem.. help

can i flash 2.1 after 2.2.1?

Hi, i had one piece i9000 and flashed it with 2.1 version I9000JPJG. After this i got blue circle and no network. So, i fullflashed it with 2.2.1 I9000XXJPU and i got my network back. Just wondering after this can i flash 2.2 I9000JPJPG on this phone to get arabic language? Thanks.
Yes You Can
Odin. Repartition your phone with the pit compatible with 2.1 ROM,, and then update from there. Did the same yesterday myself. It's a bit tricky. So make sure your 3 Button Recovery is working.

Sorry i dont understand...should i first just flash my phone with 512 pit and repartition ticked, then flash I9000JPJPG as pda since it is just one file and not tick repartition?
I want to downgrade from 2.2.1 I9000XXJPU stock firmware to 2.1 I9000JPJG8 stock firmware. Can someone please explain how to do that?
Well i flashed the phone with I9000JPJPG and everything ok

Galaxy Odin Stuck on "Set Partition" (Emergency, Please Help!)

Hello,
I just wanted to upgrade to XWJS5, so I flashed JPU with 512 pit and re-partition checked (so then after it I flash JS5 with 803 pit and no re-partition)
Now odin is stuck on "Set Partition" stage and my phone doesn't even show any progress, what should I do?
I don't want to brick my phone
Please answer me ASAP, my phone is stuck here now
The USB is still connected... anyone please?
did you definitely uncheck re partition ??? and have you got all 3 files ??
I flashed stock JS5 with 512 pit (even tho samfirmware says 803 pit )
and its worked like a charm,,, dont panic just breathe and relax and try again.
I'm flashing JPU right now not JS5. You know because JS5 has only 1 file if I flash it alone phone wont bootup.
Re-partition is on, pit is 512, firmware is JPU and CSC/Modem files are selected correctly. Will my phone brick if I unplug it or maybe close odin?
IT WILL BRICK but it will just be a soft brick which means you can fix it by flashing another ROM thru odin...
you will be fine just make sure download mode works after u unplug it
and also js5 comes in 3 files now its on here somewhere,,, download that and flash it
So shall I unplug it now or close odin? And after i've unplugged it, should i re-open odin or keep it there and press flash button?
Can you please give me the 3 files JS5 link? I found one but i'm not sure if it's the correct one.
well you cant keep it plugged in forever lol, unplug it, restart odin. make sure kies (if you have it) is closed (even in the icon tray) and download XWJS5 link is below. flash that with PIT and RE-PARTITION and that should fix it

[Q] Can i Combine '(FROYO)' with a '(Gingerbread)' ? (Xchange PDA)

I have a rom that is just 1 file:
FROYO:
NEE.tar (PDA)
and another rom is 4 files:
Gingerbread:
CSC-XXJV1.tar
PDA-XWJVB.tar
PHONE-XXJVK.tar
pit512.pit
I want to mix this 2 ROM and the result is something like this:
CSC-XXJV1.tar
NEE.tar <-- It's from FROYO
PHONE-XXJVK.tar
pit512.pit
IS THAT WORK ?!
I risked and try that.
result => It's worked HoHaa

It worked because CSC files, Modems (Phone) and .pit settings are totally firmware agnostic. All three work with both Froyo and Gingerbread interchangeably.
The pit file simply tells Odin how to set up the partitions. The CSC is the localization info and the Modem is the radio. Both the CSC and the Modem can be flashed via Recovery after install, so there was no real need to flash them at the same time, but it didn't appear to hurt. Likely what happened is they just flashed over the modem and CSC installed by the PDA file.
However, you may want to check in About to confirm the JVK modem is what you ended up with.
Thanks for info @rschenck
I went to downgrade boot loader to FroYo (from Gingerbread). and after that I understood that boot.bin and slb.bin is in PDA file.
I have this files:
boot.bin, slb.bin from JPU ROM
PDA_XWJS8_NEE
CSC_EZbase-XXJV1
PHONE_EZbase-XXJVK
I flashed by ODIN 1.7 and heimdall but it's failed (softbreak)
after that i backed to XWJS8 and i couldn't downgrade boot loader
What's wrong here ?! Do boot.bin and sld.bin is different in different ROMS ? what i need to repartition?
I'm confused sorry

You are over complicating your life to an amazing degree...if all you need are the froyo bootloaders there are much easier ways.
Just search in Google for ezbase and android soul...on that website are excellent instructions for flashing ezbase via odin. From there you can flash anything you want.
Don't try to invent the wheel messing with bin files.

COME ON!!!!
There is a lot of FROYO ROMs and I know that! but I want to try everythings!
and if you not in mood to help, please Don't disapointed me :\
1. anyway, I just want to know is different between boot.bin and slb.bin in all FroYo ROMs?
2.for repartition What's need in put in ODIN ? (just pda, or pda,csc,phone) ?
3.is boot.bin and sld.bin dangerous ?
Thanks again for respond.

[Q] Odin PIT mapping failed

Im trying to install the speedmod kernel for MIUI via ODIN and it keeps failing at get PIT for mapping?! Never had this problem when flashing a kernel before.
Im on JPY firmware using JPU for partition and PIT.
Someone help please :/
Have you made sure 're-partition' is UNchecked in odin ?
and you have not loaded a PIT file have you ??
could you post a screen shot of what odin looks like before you press start ?
