Hey guys,
i wrote a small tutorial for all this people which have the galaxy s i9010 ( its like the captivate only for german market [armani] ) and want install Cyanogenmod with 100% WORKING GPS.
That was really the main problem, but i solved it with the help of this forum.
please extract all my files, i had to compress them but you cant use them as zip!
First of all go back to stock with your phone. You can download all files from http://www.sammobile.com/showthread.php?t=20 but pay attention:
If you dont use the following files, your phone wont work.
Donwload BOTH Firmwares and choose these 3 files for flashing with Odin:
-GT-I9010-CSC-MULTI-OXA902407.tar.md5 (444,851 mb) --> CSC
-I9010XXKB2-REV00-ALL-low-CL909299.tar.md5 (279,501 mb) --> PDA
-MODEM_I9010XXJK9_REV_00_CL737172_SIGNED.tar.md5 (12,291 mb)--> PHONE
Now you are on stock and everything is working fine but you have Android 2.2
Download the latest Cyanogenmod for Samsung CAPTIVATE on http://www.cyanogenmod.com/
- extract all files into a new folder
- replace the existing modem.bin with the JK9-Armani-modem (same name Modem.bin)
- open with notepad and edit the file META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script
- change all entries “SGH-I896” to GT-I9010 [found this solution here] http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15822109&postcount=67
- save the file and compress via 7-zip to a new zip-file ( mark all files and folders --> right-click --> 7-Zip --> add to XXX.zip
- put this new zip-file into your sdcard
- Now root your phone via "onecklickroot" ( enable USB-debug and dont forget restart after that) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
- replace this 3e_recovery file with the existing in System/Bin
- install Rom-manager and install clockworkmod (choose samsung captivate)
- reboot into recovery menu and press 2 times "reinstall packages", after that you start into the clockworkmod
- choose install zip from sd and choose your created zip-file
- copy stock gps files to your internal sd
- start root-explorer and copy all files (the folder gpsd to system/bin
the both files to system/etc)
-reboot phone
OPTIONALLY
you can install "gapps", if you need apps like google-market. You do it same like installing Cyanogenmod, reboot into recovery, install from sd etc.http://goo-inside.me/gapps/
you can use the really nice HTC-keyboard, just put the two keyboard files on your sd card, install them and choose settings/language and keyboard HTC_IME
to activate the keyboard go to sms and press a long time into the text field, now you can choose your input method
Have fun and enjoy your galaxy s I9010 with Android-Version 2.3.7
previously it was very difficult to flash I9010, this post was like real itinerary for me. ThankY!
Though even here i've made a mistake
At the 1st step while flashing with Odin DONT MARK Re-Partition as there is no Pit
No Problem , i know this phone is really difficult to flash back to stock or flash a rom with working GPS
I forgot to upload the PIT, if you need it take it from here.
Greetz from Germany
something seems to be going wrong..
it keeps telling it is updating but it doesnt proceed anymore.
Maybe this is because i cant go back to the original stock rom coz the link is broken (and i dont fully understand th explaination with the 3 files and what to do.
I have a stable andromeda 3 build running but my gps isnt working.
I already copied the gps files into their destination folders(and it asked me to replace so i did this properly).
Should my gps work when i did this or should i take additional steps to get it running?
Thanks in advance
seems like i only miss the 'phone' file , the rest i found via google on the samware site , only the phone file (and the pit , but that one is here already) i still dont have , anyone can help?
Hey yoshiwa,
you need to download all files you can get for samsung i9010 on the samfirmware site. After downloading and extracting you have 5 files, but you only need the three i posted. Its really recommend that you flash back to stock before flashing a new rom.

We could install gingerbread bootloader to our I9010 to install custom GB roms?
- replace this 3e_recovery file with the existing in System/Bin

@MikeFRG
in your folder System/Bin exist a file named recovery. You must overwrite it via root-explorer with the new recovery-file (the modded 3e_recovery file )
@ erycx and szika87
you dont need any bootloaders, just download Odin put in the right fields the right files. You need phone, CSC, PDA, and the small pit file... and it works
Thanks man! It really does work for me. CM7 & CM9
Thank you. It work for my 9010 ARMANI. First I've installed th CM7 and used it for a month without any trouble. Now I used your manual to do the same with CM9. Really cool. It seems to be ok.
Hello.
I flashed a I897 Stock GB ROM on my Armani and my phone modem is not working anymore.
Can you please help?

The whole instructions are in the OP, read it, understand it and follow it.
Thanks, now I am back on I9010 stock.
Can you confirm that all the file links that you posted are working?
I will try and download all files and follow the steps.
Now after going through I897 without phone modem, then bootloop, the back to Armani I can say that I got some experience with Odin and
flashing.
Anyhow do you have any idea why on ROOTED 2.2 ROM Manager will not flash the Clockwork even if it says that it is successfull?
Well now with stock 2.2 and factory reset and everything wipe the phone seems to be moving really fast compared to before I started the whole process.
What can you say about the Cyanoged, how is it working in terms of speed and lagfix?
Thanks!
Will get back.
PS: Now that I looked into the OP I saw that still a Clockwork in needed for installing Cyanogen, but I cannot install Clockwork so I cannot follow your instructions.
Is there any other way to install custom recovery except the ROM Manager application?

ROM Manager doesn't support the Captivate. You'll need to flash a custom kernel using Odin (speedmod for 2.2). The only thing I dunno is if it's compatible with the I9010.. But before doing so, you wanna do all the other steps with CM (changing the updater.script and such) and have it on the root of your internal.
After flashing speedmod, you'll be booting directly in recovery to flash the modded CM. Don't forget to grab the Gapps.
It would be really great if you:
1.put link to speedmod kernel and how to flash it on stock 2.2
2.put a link to the modified zip CM archive for I9010
The guide on how to do it.
For now I will wait for these files and a complete guide, I don't want to mess my I9010 again.
I got last CM and tried to modify updater.script, I replaced I896 with I9010, then I observed
I897 also. Should also I897 be replaced to I9010.
Wouldn't it be better if you could post all the modified files that needed to be put into the zip,
or the full zip for the Armani?
Thank you and waiting for the files and steps if you would be so generous.

I don't have a I9010 so Idk much about it. I'm only using the search function (as you should) to find the information I provided you with.
No, I don't have time to get the CM10 zip and change all the script but it's really easy to do. Just search all the SGH-I896 and SGH-I897 and replace them with SGH-I9010. Easy enough.
Speedmod kernel can be found using the search function in the Dev section.. Get the .tar version of it as you will be flashing it with Odin.
As for CM, the whole instructions are already in the OP, if you want a link, I'll just link the OP...
Friendly advice: Go read and understand what you're doing otherwise you'll end up with a bricked phone.
Ok so I will ask more questions until I get it right:
- replace this 3e_recovery file with the existing in System/Bin
- install Rom-manager and install clockworkmod (choose samsung captivate)
- reboot into recovery menu and press 2 times "reinstall packages", after that you start into the clockworkmod
Will these steps work if I dont install the speedmod kernel? Are these steps going to get me the clockwork recovery?
Can I pack the files also with Total Commander zip utility, or I have to use 7zip?
I downloaded cm-10.0.0-captivatemtd
I modified the updater script, I will post it here, can you check that this is ok:
Hello.
Back with a feedback about your instructions and a problem that I had:
I did the following steps:
1.I downloaded latest cm10 and decompressed to a folder
2.I copied the modem.bin that you provided and the updater.script that I posted earlier and then compressed back with 7zip, copied the zip to
my sdcard
3.I copied the recovery file on System/bin with Root_explorer
4.I installed ROM Manager and flashed Clockwork
5.I rebooted 2 times and did reinstall packages, then after that I got to the clockwork recovery
6.I selected install sdcard from zip and selected the image that I modified
The install then started but it halted to an error related to update.zip, it kept showing an option that said to select update.zip,
or some other options, something with adb and so on...
I kept on selecting the cm.zip but it kept on showing the error with update.zip, I selected update.zip but still it showed off the error.
From what I saw on the screen, the error was related to what it is checked in the updater.script, cm is looking for GT-i9010 but in
update.zip you have only captivatemd or something like that...
Are you sure there is no need of an modified update.zip archive on my sdcard too???
After this I got the battery out, put in on Download mode and flashed back to the Armani firmware, now it is back and running,
but I am so sad that I couldn't install CM10.
If you have any ideas why it didn't work please get back with some info, also can you check the updater.script that I posted or better that this,
can you post a modified working cm archive for Armani ???
Thanks a lot!
Hi all..
Yesterday i installed KingDroid ICS NoteMania Edition 1.6 full rom. But running the setup guide after install, i noticed the keyboard is broken. I read the whole post, (all 99 posts) to try and troubleshoot. There were two others, who had the same problem, and wrote a possible solution.
"I used the T9DB folder in system/ from another rom with working nordic keyboard and just replaced it in the rom before flashing."
So i tried unzip the rom, download a custom rom i knew had a functional nordic keyboard. Then i copied the T9DB folder, from the other custom rom, and replaced it with the one in KingDroid. Afterwards compressed the folder to .zip file again, and moved the file to my SD card and rebooted to CMW. Now heres my problem.
When trying to install the zip file, i get an "install aborted"
What am i doing wrong?

Hi guys, today I built a rom with the last Android Kitchen, everything ok, I downloaded the rom from samfirmware, I made the device configuration file for S3 Mini in the edify folder of the kitchen, I set up the rom.. made some changes with the kitchen and I built the rom. The rom flashed ok, all went ok but there's a big problem... if I use the rom the WiFi wouldn't connect anymore and the phone doesn't recognise that I have a sim inserted, and the USB cable doesn't connect mass media.. I didn't include the kernel in the rom, and I didn't wipe data because the data is from the same rom but without any modifications, any ideeas? I belive it's something related to CSC, I included the modem that came with the rom.
In that case.. Extract the sec_csc.zip from cache.img and include the files to your rom.

I already did that.. the kitchen extracted the cache.img and copied the files from csc.zip to /system but it still doesn't work.

Hi there, I am trying to create a flashable zip of stock rom, the newest UBPLP firmware, I extracted everything from original md5 packace, converted to ext and mounted as virtual image and so on, took system and preload things, then csc stuff from cache.img, created a zip, all permissions etc etc, I have some experience.
Everything works except the fact there is no signal and wifi can't connect, can't really understand what's wrong, I know I am missing something, already tryed also flashing modem, kernel and so on, but nothing, baseband is unknown, but everything is fine with efs and imei, flashing another rom solves everything.
I really would be grateful if someone can explain me how to do this or can supply with a flashable zip of that firmware, odexed or deodexed, doesn't matter, I would like to learn how to correctly make stock rom flashable from zip package

Try SuperR kitchen: http://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/kitchen-superrs-kitchen-t3202296 .
Thank you @#Henkate, after lots of testing I found out the problem was in some symlinks in /system/bin folder corrupted, so the only way was to use nandroid backup and take everything from there
