No need to Odin.. it's a CWM flash. Just root your phone, install CWM, replace recovery with the patched 3e recovery (see attachment), copy firefly zip on internal sd, reboot into recovery and flash the firefly zip from the sdcard. Let it do it's job... It may looked stalled on Formating DATA for a while but just leave it alone for a few minutes (5-10) then it will go on. Reboot and your done.
flash it or not
do i have to put that attatchment in the root of my internal sd card and flash it with cwm?
Does firefly work on a stock ROM? Based on the OP's post, I think he has a stock rom on, and he rooted the same.
probably, anyways how would i get to stock firmware from a rom? 2.2

FireFly is going to replace the stock ROM

do i have to flash a kernel before flashing the rom or can i directly flash the rom?
You can directly flash the rom using CWM. Later on, you can switch to other kernel.
if i flash it and want to go back to stock, how would i get back to 2.2 rogers
Hello.
So i've got a problem with my I9000.
I've upgraded it to froyo, official release, so i'm stuck with the 3e recovery.I recently flashed the voodoo lagfix kernel via Odin. I would like to get clockwork recovery to replace 3e, but I understand i have to flash it via Odin, too. My question is : Is clockwork's kernel going to replace voodoo? If so, how can i have them both?
Thanks a lot in advance.
if you upgrade offical froyo then u must first do a root..the root files can be find here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108...download correct root for your firmwire phone...then flash it tru odin..when u done with that u must download a rom manager from market...and install it to get clockwork mode =)
I wouldn't follow the previous poster's advice.
If you're going to use cwm, why do you want stock firmware? Try flashing speedmod kernel to get cwm, which has built in root and lagfix accesable from recovery. Or just go to a custom fw like docrom kitchen.
Best procedure for going custom with the sgs is a single flash of speedmod w/ cwm from odin, and then flash anything else via cwm.

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

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?
Originally I had 2.2 on my SGS. When Samsung released the update to 2.3 Kies couldnt update my phone. So I applied the recovery mode downgrade from 3e to 2e via Odin and flashed a custom ROM from romkitchen.org
Now I wanted to flash team ICSSGS rc3.1 rom to my phone but when I go to recovery mode all I get is a black screen.
The phone is working though, and pressing the power button boots it up.
So I installed rommanager.apk by Clockworkmod and via it, cwm recovery.
But still the same black screen.
What can I do to get recovery fully operational again?
Usually when you create a ROM from ROM Kitchen you have chosen a kernel. Which kernel you have chosen?
A recommended way: flash a custom kernel (you can DL from "Android Development" zone) via odin. Then follow the instruction from ICSSGS.
Hope I can help you!
Ah yea, I've forgotten to mention that. I've chosen Talon kernel. Can you recommend me one?
You could flash Semaphore kernel, pick the version to match your rom you have currently installed. Once you have Semaphore kernel installed you can follow the instructions to install ICS rom.

I did this now:
1. Return to stock 2.3.3 via Odin
2. Flash root kernel
3. Install CWM recovery
4. Install ICSSGS RC4.1
5. Install devil kernel
Voila
Thanks for the help
I can flash directly from Gingerbread? I tried 2 times with OdinOne Click flash but I have not flash because Odin gets stuck in factoryfs. Thanks to USB JIG I managed to revive my Captivate.
yes you can, but why?
odin sometimes locks up. keep trying. where did you get this one click?

I will try with a file .tar i got. I need Flash CyanogenMod 7.1, the Stock ROM Gingerbread is worse than Eclair, I am disappointed, I thought it would be better
Another question. It is necessary wipe/data before flash with Odin?
Just flash CM7 from where you are now. And Odin wipes it for you

Are you sure that I can flash directly from Gingerbread 2.3.5 (Stock) to a ROM CyanogenMod 7.1 (Official)? Had I known it would not be with the disastrous Stock ROM 2.3.5. And from any Custom Kernel? I have Corn Kernel v7.06
Yes flash it with CWM Recovery and it will boot loop (supposed to happen). Pull the battery and put it back in. Boot into recovery and wipe everything then flash CyanogenMod and Gapps. Reboot and you're good to go. If you wanna flash a custom kernel I recommend Glitch 13.1
