The update was pulled back because it had some problems.
If you want the original 2.3.3. rom make sure you go back to stock rom.
To prevent problems.

No current 2.3 Firmware on Kies server ..##

[Q] can we go back to 2.2.1 official rom after darky?

Hi Guys,
I own a I900 since 2 months. I updated to 2.2 last month and I am not happy since then. I am very tired of the wait of 2.2.1 Indian version.
I have been reading abt Darky's ROM 9.3 and it seems that people are very happy with it.
My question is that if I flash my phone (I hope thats the terminology) to Darky's 9.3 then will I'll be able to go back to official Indian 2.2.1 when it releases?
Thanks in advance
Probably but after using Darky and not liking it you will need to flash stock firmware via Odin .

After using darky or other rom u need to flash the new rom via odin with repartiton box enabled aka full wipe.(at least this is how i'll do it)

[Q] Flash XXJPY Darky to XXJVK Stock

Hi,
I currently have Darkyy's ROM on my Galaxy S but I'm not very happy with it (bluetooth doesnt work and so on...).
So I want to install a stock firmware... 2.3.3 to be exactly.
I just found the Link in the Thread "Stock Firmwares..." but the filename is "I9000XXJVK"... my current firmware is "I9000XXJPY" - so is this a problem?
Would be nice to get an answer soon!
Thanks!
Which Darky Rom are you at? You should realy try 9.5 its the best ROM Darky has ever made.
But back to your topic, you should flash the JVK with bootloaders I guess or you will have a creapy screen at the boot. Stock JVK isn't a final Gingerbread. Its still beta but very stable.

no problem. just remove the lagfix and follow the procedure step by step.
if you want to be extra safe, you could flash back to stock samsung rom, with repartition and pit file, and then go to JVK - gingerbread.
aslong as you follow the instructions to a Tee, you wil be fine.
I'm running 9.3 and it doesnt work for me right. Bluetooth doesnt work, my music player starts random and much more...
Oh and I thought that JVK is the official one by Samsung.. so should I try it or should I change to the MIUI Rom for example (looks also good and is 2.3.x)?
i am running MIUI rom now and i have to say. ITS FRIKKIN AWESOME.
its so customisable, so completely different from samsung roms. i would highly recommend it, i have been thru every rom going, but MIUI is definately one to stick to.
quick updates, very helpful devs, issues fixed asap. overall 10/10
Sounds good so far
So I'm going to try MIUI, thanks azzledazzle!

[Q]Kernel and ROM based on 2.3.3 official update on the euro galaxy S

im new in this section.
i have a nexus S my self.
but i am asking this,because my GF is getting the galaxy S today/tomorrow.
and i was wondering.
is there any ROM thats beyond the official euro update 2.3.3.
and is as stock as possible?(like the nexus S)
(at first ill let her fidle with touchwis though)
and i also need A kernel with lagfix and a bit of save over-clocking for the official euro update 2.3.3(and/or the rom any one suggested here)
thank you in advance
there are many 2.3.3 custom ROMs available for the SGS, although the SGS does NOT come stock with 2.3.3..
2.3.3 is also not available 'officially' through KIES, but it is available on a website www.samfirmware.com
which is 'leaked' official version.
and finally, EVERY custom Kernel supports lagfix, and majority of them also support Overclocking and Undervolting

i think id let her wait until official update comes through(any time soon here)in KIES
But for now there is no OC/UV Kernel for 2.3.3.

my bad lol
anyway you can get a good kernel / lagfix with 2.2.1 and just apply a gingerbread theme, until the update arrives,
if your GF is anything like mine she wont even notice
awww bummer.
the problem with my gf is,she is pretty interested in what my nexus S
and my spica(that she's using for now.until she has the galaxy s) can do.
adn she asks pretty often,can i do that,how do i do this ect.
and mostly my answer is: you need root or thats only with custom kernel/rom.
2.3.3 custom ROMs with close to stock themes

[Q] Samsung Captivate 2.3.3 Q/A

I have a question and you may find it silly but that's okay, I have my reasons. If I take my Rogers I896 Captivate from stock 2.2 rooted froyo and put it on GB 2.3.3 from the I-9000, Instead of having the GB launcher can I go back to touchwiz from Froyo? Because I love the dock and the launcher, very smooth. And if I go to 2.3.3 is there any chance I can go back to 2.2? I keep hearing everywhere that I will brick if I do.
Yeah you can go back, but you have to be careful because your flashing bootloaders.. A lot of the bricks from 2.3.3 back to 2.2 is user error.
Why do you want to put a i9000 ROM on your phone. Captivate has a ton of gingerbread ROMs...?

The stock 2.3.3 uses the "same" launcher as 2.2 its just TW4 instead of TW3
you can go back to 2.2 you just have to be careful that you dont flash new bootloaders

All the 2.3.3 ROMs for the captivate are from the i9000 source code of gingerbread.

What exactly do you mean by flashing new bootloaders? Are You supposed to keep the ones you got from. 2.3.3?
What folder are ringtones stored in 2.3.3
I want to move my MP3 ringtones to the phone ringtone folder but I can't find them. In the 2.2 version they were in the audio folder but now I can't find a audio folder.
Thanks,
I am trying to search for ROMs based on the I897 2.3.3? Is there a list somewhere or what is best way to search these ROMs without the i9000 ROMs being included? Specifically I would like a ROM that just removes all AT&T branding and bloatware as well as the power on/power off tones/screens.
I have loaded 2.3.3 and flashed the beta 2 Kernal from DG but I do not want Cognition just a clean version of the stock ROM and maybe add a couple things later.

as Shyam replied earlier, yes you can do with PC Odin.
Depends on your purpose. Are you still going to use it for your personal use ? or are you going to sell back to Samsung ?
If you are going to sell back to samsung / claim for warranty (if your current state need any claim of it).
If you are going to sell back to Samsung / claim your warranty, better you just flash back original firmware (can be downloaded from samfirmware.com) with PC Odin. You should need around 5 minutes (plus-minus) to flash it back.
By doing this, you will loose your root, get original firmware (ROM), with original (stock) kernel. Once you are on pure stock kernel, please do not do any wipe data, as I believe you know the consequences.
But if you want to keep root (and use it for personnal), you can use Mobile ODIN. But you have to check first which version is running on JB rom, since according to you, you are now on JB custom rom. My understanding, earlier mobile ODIN doesn't work on JB rom.
If you don't want the hassle of doing so, Just :
Flash back original firmware (download from samfirmware.com), with PC Odin
Once boot up on ICS, go to stock recovery (Vol UP+Power+Home), flash Philz Kernel. (you will get root + CWM). You can refer to Philz thread, and download his correct kernel for your ICS built number.
Good Luck!
