[Q] Help me install MIUI 2.3.4 (MGv1) - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
Can you please help me install MIUI 2.3.4 (MGv1)?
I have Android 2.3.3 official in my Galaxy S. I have Clockwork Mod.
Do I have to install some 2.2 ROM before installing MIUI?
Link to the MIUI guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=992251
Best regards, Galaxy S Subben.

yes you'll need to flash a 2.2 ROM before you can flash MIUI.
All i did was go to samfirmware.com and flashed the 2.2.1 XXJPY as pda with no repartition. took less than 5 minutes to flash, and then followed the MIUI guide exactly as written in the second post of that thread, and have had no issues whatsoever.

flash official froyo firmware to get the correct froyo bootloader, then simply follow the installation from the first page of the miui thread. works everytime for me

The best way is to flash JPU becaus it brings a new bootloader to you.
Then i´ve read that its good to flash the MIUI RC7 stock first and then the MGv2 in the recovery.

Just an update to my previous post, search the forums for ezbase and use that to go to a 2.2 rom, it is easy as pie to do, and their instructions are easy to follow.

I swear by ezbase too, great as a recovery image

How to flash gingerbread rom over froyo rom

Hi there.
I'm running deodexed Froyo 2.2.1 right now from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790
I want to flash Gingerbread but I'm lost with bootloaders. The roms in there
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790 does not have bootloader also Im not sure if I need one.
Could someone guide about the bootloader thing and how to flash deodexed gingerbread via odin.
Thanks!
C check out ezbase 3 rom, straight flash with odin 3 as per instructions, will give you rooted rom and im pretty sure its deodexed find it in development
Sent from my GT-I9000
Thanks!
But just to be clear: EZBase is a stock deodexed rom with bootloader in it?
Because I want to install the stock gingerbread (XXJVK probably) but I'm confused about the whole bootloader stuff.
Thanks again!
Read the ezbase thread, u can go for froyo or gb, just follow instructions, its all there with link to instructions with screen shots

[Q] I want to flash a custom rom

Hi
my phone is a galaxy GT-I9000
PDA : I9000BGJP3
PHONE : I9000BGJP2
CSC : I9000XECJP2
Build Info : 2010, 11
it has froyo 2.2 , Movistar Spain stock rom
it is not rooted
and it has recovery and download modes
Now I want to flash a custom rom (cyanogen or darky's)
i have read a lot of guides and tutorials but i'm still a little confused
So I want to know if I need to flash the firmware first, then only after that, I install the custom ROM ?
Or do I directly install a custom rom without flashing a new firmware ?
thanks for your help
Hi ziko360, since it sounds like you are new to custom roms I recommend you first try darkys rom.
If you are wanting to flash darkys v10.1 then yes you first need to flash the jvh firmware then flash darkys v10.1 after.
If you dont want to flash a custom rom you could always flash jvo from samfirmware.com then just flash a custom kernal instead.
Edit: Iv just noticed you asked in another post that you wanted to install the voodoo lag fix. If you have done this, then remember you must first diable the lag fix!

You should create a file or folder named disable-lagfix and place it in the voodoo directory on your sd card and reboot the phone. Or if that's too complicated you can Download from the android market the application Voodoo Toggle reboot Button - just hit the button so that voodoo is off and reboot. Also, in the app Voodoo Control there is option to disable voodoo lag fix
Ok thanks alot. i'll check this soon..;-)

ok thanks a lot
It is actually Darkys 10.1 that I have chosen
I've read the tutorial on Darky's website and it explains everything (flashing jvh firmware, disabling lagfixes... )
thanks for your help

The fix is flash stock Froyo with pit and repartition checked via Odin if rom breaks your phone .

[Q] Best Custom Firmware for I9000M?

I'm kind of new at this and i'd like to know what is the best Firmware i can use for my Branded Bell i9000M.. The phone is already unlocked (SIM)...
I need a guide if possible or clear instructions.. as this is my first time.. Thanks so much
Can I use this Darky Rom?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=814091
Yes you can, i have that rom, but be careful before flashing a Gingerbread rom for the first time. You have to "prepare" your phone.
1: You have to root your phone. search for Superoneclik.
2: You have to install Rom Manager from the Market. Run the app and hit "Flash the reccovery" from the menu. You will be able to install a custom rom from your SDcard by entering in recovery mode.
3: You must flash a Gingerbread rom that come with a bootloader.

Take your time before flashing a rom, there is a lot af topic here to explain what to do, be sure to understand if you dont want to brick your phone. You are responsible of what you are doing.
My phone was rooted, and unlocked and whatnot. But I didn't download any bootloaders or nothing... just flashed with Odin. Now I have darky rom 10.2 EE. I had to flash a new modem to get it to work on 850 band though.. kinda new to flashing too. But worked like a charm

Darky's rom 10.2 EE (Extreme Edition) is to be flashed via ClockWorkMod.
Darky's rom 10.2 Resurection is to be flashed with Odin. I was not aware of that version.
I donno then man, I flashed with Odin. It works amazing. Just cause its not a Canadian thing I guess they don't have proper modems built in so I flashed KC1 at first and it was ok. Now just flashed JL2 with cwm and it seems to work better. What's the diff between resurrection and extreme. Just the memory wasting background apps thing? And does darky rom config work with this rom?

You can try S.U.R.F.A.C.E ROM JVQ Base, really fast and has good battery life.

[Q] Anybody from Newcastle (UK)?

hello guys,
I am looking for someone who is able to flash my friends Samsung galaxy s i9000. It has still the Froyo software on it. I successfully flashed my to ics but I am not able to do this with the other device. It has a strange basebuild no. I'm not sure how to do this.
Can anyone help me? I would be really thankful.
Cheers
Is no one able to help me?
The baseband is the modem. Should make no difference to which rom you flash. Is it on eclair, froyo or gingerbread?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Sorry, just noticed you've said froyo. You just need to flash stock gb rom, then the semaphore kernel to match for cwm and root, then you're good to go for any custom rom you wish.

This smartphone has JM1 installed. Sorry but I am an absolutly newbie. I only was able to flash my one with a step by step guidance.
I haven't found anything about JM1 How to flash etc.
I am a little bit desperate now ....
Search for a stock gb rom (jvu/jw1 are recent) with gb bootloaders and follow the flashing instructions using odin.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Sorry, where do I find something like this? After flashing with Odin I will be able to put ICS from teamhacksung on it?
See perka's jvu thread in dev section, there is an odin flashable download.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Once flashed, boot up, turn off, then flash cf-root kernel for jvu - use the search function to find thread or go to read first couple of pages of perka's thread for a link.
Once you're rooted, you'll be good to go.

Is it this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108 ?? You mean JVU is compatible with JM1?
Thank you for your help!
If you're friend needs a rom i'd start by either flashing Darky's ROM 10.2 RE with full instructions including a vid tutorial on that thread
or
Flash Jetpack v8.2 with instructions and a vid tutorial in that thread.
The reason why i recommend those two ROMS, is they're particularly easy to flash and have good support.
I'd start with Darky's ROM and then move to other ROMS from there if you want, because it's a fast, very stable rom with a brilliant community for support. Plus you dont need much expertise to flash it, and it comes packaged with root and clockwork mod recovery installed, so you dont need to do anything to prepare your phone for flashing. This ROM does it all. If you wanna move off from there, well then you're all set. But if you're friend just wants a fast stable ROM, then he's all set with Darky. If he wants a bit extra speed, then move to Jetpack V8.2 it's stable and no bugs and its very fast and features thunderbolt! tweaks preinstalled, which are custom tweaks written by a guy called pikachu01 and they improve the SGS very well. They dont require too much expertise to install, but this saves you hassle and gives you all those added benefits from thunderbolt!.
If you're really keen on this teamhacksung ICS build then go to the darky rom and then from there install teamhacksungs build. Just make sure you read carefully to know what you're doing.

Flash a stock gingerbread rom. Then flash a custom kernel like semaphore. After that you can install ics.

Samsung I9000 New rom?

Hello guys! So i have got a problem, i want flash a new firmware but the user that had this phone before has allready flashed a new firmware...
It is an old 2.2 FW but i want a 4.3 FW. However what should i do now? Its rooted allready, and there is a old recovery installed(no option to flash roms)
At first you have to flash a Custom Recovery Mode. For example CWM or TWRP.
Then you can flash your Custom Rom.
Just use Google an you will find an instructions.
For the best experience you can flash it to the latest stock ROM via ODIN, install CF-Root (contains CWM too) and then upgrade to CM 10.2 with fullwipe
Just go to the forum and search cyanogenmod 10.2 from ADC team then they will provide the link to install the CWM. You can install CWM through odin (makesure u got the right odin). Follow strictly the instruction that is provided by the forum

I think there are only Roms by the ADC-Team for the I9001 and not the I9000.
