I wanted to root my Samsung galaxy s i9000 (gingerbread) so i followed the procedure that i found on the dkszone "How To Root Samsung Galaxy S On Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread I9000 XXJVK ROM" (I can't post a lik). It looked like it worked but after I turned on wi fi it started rebooting constantly. I removed the battery and reinserted it. After I turned it on, it was the same situation (rebooting). I than flashed it with odin founded on tread "Stuck on main screen after root, keeps rebooting" on this site (pit512 was uploaded with PIT button, repart was chacked).
Now it is dead! Please help me.
Flash 2.2 with bootloaders, then flash Stock 2.3 or any 2.3 rom
if you cant get into download mode u have to try it via jig-method to get into download mode.
if you're in download mode reflash with some stock-rom or darkys ressurection-rom.
be sure you tick on repartition and use the 512-pit file.
u may follow this guide: http://www.darkyrom.com/community/i...-darkyrom-gingerbread-jvh-noob-friendly.3080/
IT WORKED!! I managed to flash it with ginger ROM for SGS. The problem was to get into the download mode.
Thanks guys.

3 combos buttons work ?
Vol down+home+power on/off ?
Vol Up + home+ power on/off ?
if yes, try to flash the correct rom for I9000M
If you can get into download mode, and Odin sees your phone, then it is very unlikely that you bricked it.
Just flash Darkys ressurection or stock Samsung ROM from Odin.
ok installed darkys, now all phone does is flash galaxy i9000 screen
managed to get past that screen and back to recovery mode, and still d/l mode, trying EZBASE now as i was getting as far as colour S then bursts of vibrations
UPDATE:
stuck on boot loop now, still can access recovery and d/k mode, after trying to install EZBase. is their any other siggestions.
pref, instructions and files for re-loading stock firmware for australia on it, if memory calls had 2.2 of eclair
still no luck people, any further advice please
I just had the same issue with my i9000m. Download the fireware I9000UGJL2.exe from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846913
It fixed my issue instantly. Then go to that kitchen rom website and create your own ROM. My phone has never been faster. GPS works very good, way better than before. Even cell service is 100000000000 times better....
ok, good news is i have it working stock rom and rooted, got most aps back on, now my issue is, i cant install clockwork recovery from rom manager, i tried it via odlin and got the screen of phone and pc and the exclamation mark. can some1 please help out as to how i can get clockwork recovery mod installed.

CF-Root-XW_XEE_JVB-v3.1-CWM3RFS
Go to D/L mode and reflash the kernal.
So you tried flashing Chainfires JVB kernal on a 2.1 rom?
I think that's the problem....

ok thanks, what should i flash then, or how can i update to 2.2 or 2.3 without loosing files and apps ?
Man you should not try to flash things when you don't understand them.
For this moment you tried to flash a kernel that is for a gingerbread rom (JVB, android 2.3.3) on your Eclair 2.1. Don't you think you should read a bit more before flashing everything on your phone?
Go to the official rom thread and follow the guides to flash a gingerbread(2.3.3) or Froyo(2.2) rom
Ok ill put this as plain and as simple as i can
1. I am new to flashing
2. I asked how to do it, as after all this is a q&a section
3. I feel my questions hvae not been answered correctley
so i shall explain again and this time links may help
1. I want a kernal that will give me recovery options
2. I do not want to loose anything on the phone
3. I want to upgrade to 2.3
so i would like links please or someone who can take the time to write a quicvk step list telling me what to do.
You really need to go to main thread and all info is there, it would take ages to talk you out of this...its all out there, seek and you shall find, its tough love

I was trying to root my SGS i9000 (UKG3, Bell Canada) and have (hopefully) soft bricked it. I am getting the phone!computer icon, but can enter download mode. Can't enter recovery mode. Kies doesn't recognize the phone but Odin does (Com lights up).
I want to get everything back to stock - does anyone know how to do that? Thanks,

Hi, you must use odin to reflash.
heres a link to ramads thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226138
Just go to samfirmware.com and download latest version of android, that is jvr 2.3.4 and flash it using odin! Use odin 1.3 android + sl
Sent from my sgs
kernel: galaxian
Rom: jetpack
Success! Thank you very much, Robert!
You can download the stock ROM from www.samfirmware.com, My suggestion is to use custom ROM like Darky v10.2RE. The installation procedure you can see in my signature.
Hello im attempting to Root my SGS so i can eventually install a CM7 Nigtly on it but im running into to problems EVERYWHERE.
I have flashed a SGS last year when it was on eclair and had no problem at all but no matter what i try i cant root or flash 2.3.3
According to the *# key combo to find out firmware i have
PDA: I9000BUJV9
PHONE: I9000BUJV3
CSC: I9000GVODJV5
i tried rooting using fuguroot and heimdall but got "Failed to access device -12", tried using odin and it failed. i even tried gingerbreak and nothing.
Can someone point me to a thread that will let me root my phone so i can put CWM onto it then CM7.
Sorry this is such a messy question i have been trying to make it work for getting on for 12 hours.
See this link (http removed cause i only have 6 posts) for my Version information - desmond.yfrog.com/Himg611/scaled.php?tn=0&server=611&filename=rfw.png&xsize=640&ysize=640
Hmmm...
Download 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 or 2.3.5 or whatever GingerBread firmware from here: http://www.sammobile.com/threads/17-Samsung-I9000-Galaxy-S-Firmwares.
Let say you downloaded 2.3.5. You flash it via Odin with .pit file & with re-partition ticked. Then you go to developement section, you pick one of the Kernels with JVT support and flash it via Odin (put the kernel you downloaded to PDA box)
Then you have rooted SGS and you can try Recovery mode by pressing Vol up + Menu button + power button at the same time when the phone is shutted down. press the buttons until you see SGS logo.
Hope this helps you.
If you have any questions, you can drop me a PM
Hey guys,
So recently I tried rooting my phone with CF-Root and Odin, and then it went into a boot loop of just the Galaxy S on startup.
I eventually found out about Heimdall and right now I'm running 2.2.1 Froyo with Build XWJSD.
Problem is, that the phone doesn't read the SD card? Like it will see the SD Card, scan it, and say it's finished scanning but then it won't let me access it either in CWM or through the Android UI itself.
Any ideas? I just want to get MIUI installed haha.
Well I just tested the SD card in another phone and it works fine. So it's definitely the software/rom I'm using now I think.
Is there anything I can do to make this work. Maybe like a completely stock 2.2.1, that is guaranteed to work haha? I just need this card to be read. Because even when I plug the phone and run Kies, Kies doesn't recognize the version of the firmware. And If I try to use superoneclick root, it also doesn't recognize the version of the firmware.
So right now I'm using 2.2.1 XWJSD, which stock rom should I install with odin or Heimdall to make this work?
Thanks a lot again.
Head over to this thread and download JVZ (Gingerbread 2.3.6), flash with Odin with re-partition checked, then head over to Chainfire's thread for CF-Root kernel for JVZ and flash that through Odin as well.
Forget about Kies since you'll no longer be using that to update firmware and whatnot.
CF-Root will come with CWM installed, so after you get that done, download MIUI and flash through CWM
Thanks a lot will try it out.
This CF-Root right? CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVZ-v4.3-CWM3RFS.zip
Unfortunately the phone is stuck in a bootloop now after installing 2.3.6 JVZ.
Did you make sure re-partition is checked? If it still bootloops after re-partition then try JVT or some other stock ROM and see if that boots up before applying the CF-Root kernel
Yeah I made sure re-partition is checked, and I installed it with the 512 pit file, unless I shouldn't be using the .pit?
your gona have to reflash the rom or install arom thats already rooted you could try darky 10.2 re or check out puggerduk on tube

MIUI is running based on Android 2.3, I found the Android forum that helps me well enough to do my first flashing and rooting. Here is what you need to try to do:
1. Flash your i9000 with XXJVU 2.3.6 ( Value Pack ):
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/xxjvu/
2. Root your I9000 with CF-Root-XX OXA JVU 2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS:
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/root-xxjvu-firmware/
Do everything on the post and you can install MIUI ROM from recovery straight away after that.
Hope this helps. If it does, please consider press 'THANKS' button
Ok,So i bricked my SGS and i want to unbrick it. The closest way,i was told was to flash a PDA file. I did the same but still the phone is in a loop(Logo - CVM screen - Logo). So i want a firmware so that i can flash it with odin. Plz help.
I searched for GB Firmwares and found a collection of Firmwares in a thread by Ramad,but all links there are dead. Can anyone hook me up with a working link ?
Why do you want JVQ? If you just want to flash a firmware via Odin so that your phone worked, download this http://d-h.st/4nP , there is 3-file JW5 value pack, pi512, also Odin3 v1.85 and CF-Root kernel
Thanks a lot.. It worked and i managed to get hold of JVQ firmware as well.. but i am stuck at another problem now.. The wifi is not working.. it says turning on but it never really turns on.. not detectng any router nothng..
