would it be alright to go from stock 2.2.3 (JVD/JV5/JV6, H3G)to then flash a gingerbread upwards custom rom?
i know there's issues with the bootloaders downgrading from 2.2.3 to froyo stock
if its okay, how would i go about it?

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)

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.
Right now i got 2.21 jpy(speedmod kernal lagfix tweaks etc ) and i want to uppgrade via Kies! What do i have to do before i uppgrade?
Anyone????
go to stock first
The update was pulled back because it had some problems.
If you want the original 2.3.3. rom make sure you go back to stock rom.
To prevent problems.
No current 2.3 Firmware on Kies server ..##

next month we´ll have 2.3.4 for sgs i9000
Alright! Thanks guys.
you could also switch to AOSP builds such as cyanogenmod 7 or muiu... great roms btw and both GB (2.3.3 or 2.3.4)
Can and should it be done?
Thinking of going back to cyanogenmod7 but i have updated my bootloaders to 3.0. Will it have any negative effect on the rom?
2.3* bootloaders and no, don't do it, go back to stock
i recently upgraded to 2.3.3 JVO. is safe to go back to JVH to be able to flash darky's rom??
I dont think that would be a problem. I flashed JVO, then flashed Simply Honey 3.5 (JVH), and back to Juwe 4.3.1 (JVH).
Hi recently I installed Darky 10.1 and IMHO my deodexed JVO was much better, and now when I noticed that hardcore have a final kernel for gingerbread I think deodexed JVO + speedmod for gingerbread will be a winner here.
How do I go back from Darkys Rom to stock JVO? Do I need to remove the lagfix? or I cant flash the stock JVO with bootloader and re-partition, then flash deodexed JVO?
Thanks!
Somebody? I'm really worried about if I need to disable lagfix or not (assuming Ill flash stock JVO with bootloader).
