You can get bootloaders from ezboot thread in development

Ps. This should be in q+a thread!

If you're on JVH and don't have any odd graphical glitches when booting you 'probably' have the newer bootloaders.
Otherwise, assuming you flashed jvh with Odin, Open up the PDA.tar and check for Sbl.bin. If it's there you should be good to go.

Stock JVK with custom Kernel?

Hello Together,
When i Flash Stock JVK with Odin i cannot use a custom kernel.
Example speedmod-kernel-k13d / k13c
Then comes only the I9000 logo and nothing after
So i can only install the Stock JVK with Odin...
It is a known problem?
regards Roger
OMG....
Speedmod is for Froyo
Maybe you should have to read some Threads about JVK

The speedmod use for that is just to get into cwm to flash the cm7 initial tar. Suggest that you read the post in its entirety, not stopped when you see speedmod being mentioned.

You propably didn't read the MIUI thread...
Speedmod Kernel ist just to have CWM. You have to flash CM7 Kernel while installing it.
You can either use CF 2.4 kernel or Supercurios hacked JVK kernel.
Or stay at the stock kernel.
the only custom kernel for XWJVK with cwm and ext4 lagfix is this

[Q] Canadian Gingerbread Rom? JV1 or JVK ?

I am a Bell i9000m user -- I'm using Froyo right now (JL2 modem) which uses the 850 hz band
I desperately want to go to a Gingerbread ROM.
I understand before flashing roms via CWM I need to change the bootloaders to the new Gingerbread 2.3 models
Can anyone point me to directions as to do this (I think it would have to be done via ODIN I'm assuming?)
Also, do I use JV1 or JVK ? what's the difference ?
Cheers
You could try ezbase, it didn't work very well for me though. (errors on boot)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991792
Otherwise, you could flash the gingerbread bootloaders, then your choice of gingerbread roms, or flash the stock deodexed JVB in ramad's thread, with odin.

So JVB is the one to go with ? I am gonna flash the bootloaders first to turn it into a stock Gingerbread phone then go from there.
What do you mean by stock "deodexed" JVB ? what's the difference between deodexed and/or the original stock ? Sorry I'm still kinda new / learning

yes definitely go with JVB bootloaders (e.g here, for files and instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1047924) and install a good base rom (e.g.Docs, Simply Honey or Stock Rom) that installs the full JVB in ziplined and deodexed form: this will aloow you to add features and themes later. If you only install the basic odexed JVB you cannot add themes or apps without risking (and incurring, boot crashes).
After you have the Rom installed you can go back to Odin and flash the KC1 modem if the JVB modem doesn't connect with Bell (or adjust the settings as per here on how to activate the necessary band within any modem).
You can than flash any custom kernel if you want to further tweak and adust your system. (Warning, this does get to be fun).
Docs didnt work as well as i'd hoped, i ended up going with Bezke's rom - plus it already had the theme i was planning to install haha.

[Q] messed up

You can flash darky rescue center. Download it. All instructions are in darky zip file.

Nowhere near bricked... But you have to follow directions now.
Flash either a 2.1 or 2.2 rom. The rom has to be 3 files. You need to flash with a 512 pit and re-partition.

Help with jv rom versions.

Hi
I currently have an vodafone unlocked galaxy running bujv9 rom. and cf-root XWJVH kernel. phone is rooted.
I been looking at kernels which support voodoo sound and other stuff as my one does not.
How do i go from a jvh rom and kernel to say a jvr kernel and rom which supports the voodoo stuff.
Is it a simple wipe then CWM flash new rom then odin jvr kernel. or other way around. Not sure.
Sorry still learning galaxy flashing. well different from HTC flashing.
Cheers.
If you want to try latest rom and a kernel with all features flash stock JVS in odin and then flash Darkcore 4 or Semaphore 1.7 in odin

Your desired rom should have kernel so no need for flashing twice.
You will probably get away with factory reset and cwm flash. Any probs you may have to flash stock first.

There are apps that will do this, but may not work properly (depending on a lot of things). If you're unsuccessful with the app, or if you'd rather another way, the main to go about it is to flash a kernel that is already rooted.
Thanks for your reply, my problem is that i can't find the right cf-root kernal and also because phone locked to network my build number is bujv9,
Flash the stock jvX that you want first then flash the kernel from odin as pda,safe way
