[Q] Anycall Galaxy S - bricked? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
my friend got a phone that at first sight i thought its the galaxy s i9000. but its the korean version of it with integrated dbm antenna.
but the problem he had was, that he tried to flash a gingerbread rom (for i9000) but came to me saying the phone does not boot anymore...
so i wanted to flash the correct firmware.. so i downloaded the latest one from http://m110sroms.info/ ...
but when i start the update with odin.. it stops with a FAIL at the very end of the flashing process.. i tried several times with and without closing Odin and with and without ticking repartition.. but it didnt help..
what is the problem? please help..
i downloaded another firmware but didnt worked either..
does he bricked the phone? is it possible to un-brick it?
please answers.. thanks

I don't know a lot about this, but I do know it's almost impossible to permanently brick your phone. So things could work out just fine . However someone with some more knowledge should help you out, since mine is insufficient. GL though.

i just tried almost every single firmware i found for this device but none of them worked
so please, if anyone does know a solution, feel free to post.

Maybe it's not i9000. There is a difference between models like i9000,i9000B... check it behind battery

[Q] Restoring Korean Galaxy S to 2.1

Hello, i have a Korean Galaxy S, Anycall SHW-m110s,
using steps I found in this forum I upgraded it to froyo firmware DI29, using odin.
The build seems to be an incomplete build and it is quite laggy and buggy. I would like to restore and revert back to the original build, android 2.1 eclair, ECLAIR.DI03, however I'm having trouble finding out how to do that.
If anyone would be so kind as to instruct me how to do this, or instruct me as to where I might be able to find out how to do this, I would be so very appreciative.
Thank you for your time.

I assume you flashed di29 with odin. To go back you would flash di03 with odin the exact same way. If you do not have the rom you can search for "M110S-NPS-IMAGE-REV03-DI03-1545-USER.tar" and I am sure you will find it on numerous sites. After flashing di03 you will likely have to go into recovery mode and wipe fs and cache.
U risk bricking ur phone if u revert to eclair from froyo.

Of course there is always a risk but I have flashed the between dg14, di03 and di29 on an shw-m110s numerous times without any issues.
From my personal experience, as long as you are only flashing the PDA portion I wouldn't worry too much.
so how do i flash bak to eclair jm1 from froyo jp6 ? i read in different posts its possible , but all those who tried bricked their phones

You are obviously using a different model. You should ask others who use a similar model.

The link appears to be broken. How does the phone perform with the Tab's rom? Does it lag? That seems almost impossible for the Tab's rom to work on the Vibrant since the screen is much larger. Did you use screen density? Anyways thanks for your finding.

Are you serious? o_0
Galaxy Tab firmware on Galaxy S? Nice.
If everything on screen is too big then try getting an app called "LCD Density Changer", which can change the dpi setting in build.prop and therefore Android can scale down the UI. The default is 240, I set mine to 180 to fit more informations on screen
Why is it not working?
this must mean that any themes or roms built for the tmobile tab can be used on the vibrant. it would be nice to find it working better since its a few hundred bucks more expensive than our devices. but that really doesnt mean that the programmers get paid better for one more than the other. i hope to see some good outcomes from all of this. thanks op
I'm downloading...who had try? full functionally on vibrant?

I'd have a hard time flashing something like this even if a well known dev posted it.
and this guy only has 6 posts, all of which are useless.
Nothing comes up anywhere else (Google or xda) about anyone getting the tab software to work on a vibrant.
My advise to everyone is to be careful what you flash, unless your ready to deal with the consequences.

does your phone boot up at all?
If it does, then your good to go.
if not you'll have to Odin back to stock.
I'd recommend Eugene's froyo that doesn't brick, then back to stock just as a precautionary. I doubt this rom actually installed at all, but in the off chance that it did, flashing Eugenes froyo would probably be the safest route.
thanks men i try no working i read odin faill ican help me please
Seems kinda weird putting tab stuff on a Vibrant? Or am I missing something.

If you can use odin then just odin back to stock and start over clean.
be careful what you flash to your phone.
Yea, This is just a joke. Though in reality the tab is just a big gal s
Would be quite funny if it worked
We are all lab rats!!!
Ok, ,i am a pro at fixing problems so I got back to the stock rom in no time,but I must say this guy had a idea to flash odin3 a galaxy tab rom to a vibrant phone and posted it here with his fingers crossed hopeing that one of us xda lab rats would hit success flashing it. OMG!

just got a wifi only tab and I want to upgrade to gingerbread

but can't find an answer.... is it doable? Also, what other mods can I do to it? I wish XDA had a section for each version of the tab, I have a huge headache from trying to find my answer.... thanks guys
bump..... Please guys, help me out. I tried rooting last night but failed, guess I tried the root from a different tab... so please help me out... I'm getting ready to smash this thing

Do you think that bumping your post two hours after posting it is courteous?
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.

SuperOneClick should be able to help you root your Tab.
Here's the Noob Rooting Guide with links and downloads.
Always do your research. The Development forums will be one of your best resources for your Tab.

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.

*sigh* waiting for this too..
****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 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.

s5839i compatibility?

Helo I recently got a Galaxy ace, while I thought It would be the s5830 model I got the s5839i.
I know the roms seem to be compatible (even though there isn't much information about that), but I was wondering if the clockworkmod5830i zip file is too, so I can install roms without big worries (i'm posting this because if I tried it and bricked the phone... there wouldn't be any way to go back since there are no 5839i odin files out there or anything)
S5839i is S5830i.
S5839i or S5830i is not S5830!!

Hey mate,
I'm new to all this too and have recently bought a s5839i (2 weeks ago), I aslo bricked my phone after 2 days as I found information on the s5839i sparce and I didnt take the time to reseach up as I should have done.
Ive since found out that Odin v1.83 works with our devices and I reloaded with a stock polish rom from sammobile and everything was fine again I couldnt get the clockworkmod to fully work on the rom, you could install it but when I went into recovery mode after a reboot it would just go back to the android version rather that the ClockworkMod.
I then tried the Retribution_beta3.5 and it works fantastic, looks so much better than stock and I also now have the flash player working which was my aim from the get go. I am now able to run ClockworkMod v5.0.2.6 and back up my device.
The only thing that worries me now is in "about phone" my model number now shows up as GT-S5830i rather than GT-S5839i, sure it make no difference like.
Hope this helps you, Im just reading as many threads as I can now to find out more info, I want to get the sky go app to work.

Hello,
From this it follows that we can flashing our s5839i using s5830i rom?
I can't find polish clean (unbranded) rom for s5839i, because I have a lot of problems with my T-mobile rom. (S5839iBOLC5). And also I can't flash CWM recovery for it. Only root works fine.
I found S5839IXXLD2 and S5839IBULI1 but whether is there polish language?
How can I checked it?
