ive been wondering what is the difference between the i9000 and the i9000, im guessing the i9000 is the unlocked version, will anything that works with the i9000 do the same for the i9000M?
the i9000M is bell version canada (i think)
same phone, same features, BUT always double check if your are going to flash an i9000 rom/theme onto an i9000M
(i think thats the only difference, i only own the i9000, so someone correct me if ive missed something huge out)

Incorrect, i have an unlocked i9000m. I will only sell if the price is right however.
i9000m works quite well using sim unlockers
i'm not gonna bother paying for a unlock code
waiting for software unlock
i can do a trade cause my phone is already unlocked and ready to use where ever i paid 640 for it.
some one please buy sushantp's i9000 Euro version.
just a friendly bump ^
Whats the difference between my Galaxy S I9000M Canadian and USA Galaxy S I9000 .
Is there different rom or kerrnal ? and if not can i install all programs and updates as the I9000 you can?
I applied the Voodoo update and when my phone loads know it shows I9000M for 3 sec then shows I9000 with no M . it works and works very well just wondering if im going to have issues in the future because of this.
The Difrence is ROM and Kernel in Galaxy S I9000
My baseband: I9000jxjg2
kernel

There's no such thing as USA I9000, the I9000 is from UK not USA
I9000 runs on 3G 900/1900/2100
I9000M runs on 3G 850/1900/2100
That's then only difference
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA App
Well, we ASSUME that's the only difference, but I doubt anyone has done enough research.
In the future though, we have no way of knowing that the ROM's will remain compatible. My suggestion is to continue using the firmware DESIGNED for your phone
Hi, went to bell store today and looked at couple of Galaxy S phones that were on display. Both of them had JI6 versions of Android 2.1 came home and connected phone to Keis and no update. Has anyone with Bell I9000M managed to get this update yet?

Apparently its suppose to fix gps... doors anyone know if you can flash it through odin?
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA App
i haven't seen it on kies, or the samfirmware website.
and it said firmware version 2.1?
yep, 2.1 I will go back to the store in few days and take a picture...
Something related to this?
http://twitter.com/galaxyssupport/status/26631148177
will phones that are unlocked on a different network still get this update?
anyone have an i9000m with this on their phone.. would be nice to know is it pda only or modem, pda and csc changes.. and if we can get a copy off of someones phone.
as for that link above i dont think it relates to us .. it relates to the ji6 release for the vibrant that runs on t mobile
Well, the Bell canada's version is also called "Vibrant", don'know if it is related or not...
http://www.bell.ca/shopping/PrsShpW...PrsShpWls_Content&wlcs_catalog_item_sku=70269
JI6 for the "Vibrant" from T-Mobile got there (If we beleive samfirmware.com) around september. Twit was sent in october (But then again, delay between release and final might take a while!)
yes i realize there is vibrant in canada but if you follow those tweets every one i followed a link or read had to do with the t-mobile vibrant not ours.
Din't quite see that!
Thanks!

Yes it is the same as the international one.
i am able to flash any i9000 rom on my i9000m and it works fine...
I've flash darky's Roms (from 9.5 up) and now i'm currently using Dark Core 2.7.3_4 JVP running the F1 JVP V9 ROM and love it.
What did you need to know?
And i9000t = i9000?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
For GT-I9000M, any rom would most likely work, but you might get issue with the modem.
If so, do what's stated here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12156313&postcount=438
and you'll be able to run almost any modem
How can I find out what is the original bell mobility froyo rom? I want to reverse my phone back to bell's settings.
Can someone please help!
Bells firmware is KC1
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA Premium App
The I9000m is very similar with the exception being that it uses 850mhz band umts and GSM rather than 900mhz.
this is why you might have issues with the modem. International version modems support 1900mhz band so you may not notice the issues immediately as bell runs both 1900 and 850 but its best to at least flash a modem that uses what is available. Some people think the 850 band is better but unless you check to see what band is in use all the time who really cares as long as it is available.
As for the firmware. As mentioned the most current is known as KC1 which is the last 3 digits of the whole thing. You can find it at samfirmware.com (you need a username to download - they seem OK - no spam) and then flash it via ODIN (search for 1 of about 18000 tutorials here or see the one at samfirmware.com)
Good luck all.

I would like to convert my Galaxy S I9000 to a Galaxy S I9000M (Vibrant) Canadian.
I would appreciate it if someone could help with the rooting and tell me the name of the firmwares I need to use such as the
Kernal, Rom, etc.
Thank You.
So just to clarify (because I'm a bit confused) you want to convert one device to another? The only safest thing you can do is change build.prop, and that's only going to change how the device displays. If you want to flash a Vibrant rom onto the I9000, that's a no go because that can screw up the device.

Any reasoin why you want to make the change
Hi,
My phone used to be a i9000m.
In order to use all the custom roms, I had to convert it to a i9000.
The only thing that carries over every time I flash a new rom is the modem.
You need to use the "KG3" because I think it has something to do with the frequencies that are used by the i9000m.
So, maybe your i9000 modem may not use the same frequencies? I'm guessing, not knowing.
i9000 was wonderful, why change?

Thank You for your replies.
I am trying to learn about the Android system.
I would like to convert my Galaxy S I9000 to run on the Bell System in Canada
and I figured I need to convert to something like the Galaxy S I9000M (Vibrant) Canadian firmware.
I would like to have an i9000 working with (Bell) Canadian firmware.
I would like to wipe/re-program the phone to a factory firmware and install a firmware that will work in Canada.
The same process you do when you format your PC's harddrive.
I would like to root/clean my i9000 and re-program it with updated firmwares, giving me an i9000 Canadian Phone .
If this is possible, I need to know the names of the Rom, kernel, etc. for Canada, I could use to do this.
Thank You.
Factory Firmware you can get from here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/
I have the GT-I9000M_I9000UGKC1_BMCKC1.zip from sammobile
Thank You

Since you have your phone working in Canada would you be so kind and share with me,
the firmware you installed to do this and
how You installed it.
Also do you have a link for this "KG3" rom/kernal file?
Thank You.
