[Q] NOOB QUERY: Android Firmware Region (Please answer) - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have bought my samsung Galaxy S GT i9000 from middle east...and currently i am in Bangladesh (Southern asia)..
Q.1 - Can i Select Any Firmware of version 2.3.3 from samfirware.com or Should i select the "I9000JPJV6 " (JP is from arabic Region) (because i read somewhere the region code should be matched...)
Q.2 - Will my all functionality work ? Or there will be problem due to XX or JP firmware ?
Q.3 - is JPJV6 full arabic ?
Please answer me...this my my first help post..
Thanks in advance

As long as your phone is unlocked any I9000 firmware will work. I've changed roms a ton to ones from different regions and the only problem has every been the modem as I have an I9000T(850mhz enabled modems) which doesn't apply as you have the I9000.
So:
Q1 Yes(2.3.4 JVP is newer than 2.3.3 roms though)
Q2 Shouldn't be any problem
Q3 Sorry have no idea, you'll just have to try it out.

[Q] Is there an UNBRANDED Froyo 2.2 for SHW-M110S ?

Hi. Thanks for letting me join this interesting community!
I've got an Austrian Galaxy S and I want to update the firmware to an UNBRANDED version of the Korean SHW-M110S Froyo 2.2.
But I cannot find it anywhere. According to the "AnyCall SHW-M110S" thread it was released on October 15th.
Does an unbranded version of Froyo 2.2 for SHW-M110S even exist ?
The reason why I want to flash the Korean firmware onto my European phone is because I desperately need the RECORD CALL option.
Someone please help! Thanks

There are apps in the android market that can do call recording as well but I have the Shw-m110s Korean Galaxy S and there is not yet a froyo update out for it.
BUT,I think, Korean firmware can't fit for your phone. m110s is not i9000, m110s just be used in Korea。Are you sure that you want Korean firmware ?

[Q] Galaxy S Firmwares (Europe)

Hi, I am a Galaxy S user in the UK. I have flashed my device up to the I9000XXJPY because when i first got my device, the firmware was had the XX in it. So, i didn't consider flashing other European firmwares. So, i was wondering if it was ok for me to flash the new Gingerbread without any problems? I heard that the XX, XW, XF where codes for different regions of Europe, XX being UK?
If it is possible could anyone answer my question considering that i use the Korean language a lot on my Galaxy S phone.
Thank you in advance.

[Q] Which firmware?

Hi I am new here and so this is my first post.
I am using a Vodafone Samsung Galaxy I9000 and I am wanting to flash it to one of the 2.3.3 available on SamFirmware. I am not new to flashing firmwares and have done it on many other devices I have owned over the years, but none as important as my phone.
My reason for flashing is Vodafone are terrible with updates. I only got 2.2.1 in January.
My questions are...
Which firmware do I choose? (on samfirmware it says use samfit to check something, but I am not quite sure what it is I am supposed to check for? My cirrent firmware is I9000BUJS3)
I have read the instructions on how to do it, but do I need to do anything before hand?
Official Samsung 2.3.3 was released yesterday . You may care to wait for the official upgrade for your phone through Kies .
Current Samfirmware are for Nordic region NEE . Samfirmware i s not Samsung they just collect whats around .
If you want then use the last firmware posted on samfirmware .
Or wait a week or so and build your own rom in rom kitchen . I say wait until the devs have worked through all the fixes and themes etc .

Which one is newer JV6 or JVB ?

I have a question ... I just updated to official Gingerbread from Kies DDJV6.
Then why are the earlier builds numbered JVK, JVB, JVH ? Are they following a reverse order?
I am confused...
There is I9000XWJVB with CSC = I9000XEEJV3 which Samsung released on April for European market and there is I9000DDJV6 with CSC = I9000ODDJV6 released on May for Asian market.
I read all this on samfirmware.
Thanks for the reply.
I also saw the region codes on samfirmware but what was bugging me was that apparently the numbering system was strange.
However, I will now compare the release dates of the firmware codes from samfirmware only.
Thanks
We can install firmwares from other country codes without any problems right ?
What about the CSC , it shouldnt get affected right ?
Thanks

[Q] Update P1000 to gingerbread ?

Hi.
Since I'm new at this kind of thing I could use some advice from you smart people.
My firmware is still on Froyo, and I have been waiting for an official update on Kies for long time, but nothing happened. So I went checking today if it's available for my country (which is Croatia).
And it seems there have been 2 updates since Froyo: Croatia (T-Mobile) CRO – P1000BOJPD / P1000CROJPA (Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread
and
Croatia (T-Mobile) CRO – P1000BOJQ3 / P1000CROJPA (Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread
Considering I didn't get any update from Kies, I guess my tab hasn't been distributed by T-Mobile.... (i won the gadget on a game, so I can't realy tell for sure where it came from).
So can someone please help me with what firmware I can install by not using Kies?
Is the firmware by T-MOBILE for Gingerbread 2.3.6 usable for me?
The data found on internet for 2.3.6 are different from what I have in my tablet, so I realy need this advice.
Copied from a website for T-MOBILE 2.3.6 update, it says:
GT-P1000CWACRO
PDA: P1000BOJQ3
CSC: P1000CROJPA
Phone: P1000BOJP1
Download: P1000BOJQ3/P1000CROJPA/P1000BOJP1/P1000BOJQ3
And my tablet lists out this:
PCode: GT-P1000CWAVIP
PDA: P1000XWJMK
PHONE: P1000XXJMA
CSC: P1000OXFJM5
(This last three letters on my tabs Product Code: VIP makes me think the provider the tab came from could be VIP.)
Thx for any help I can get.
