How do i backup my original Rom ?

Hi all,
I guess this subject must have come by, but i have not been able to find it using the search bar. So i hope some 1 can help me.
On my company we have 4 Samsung Galaxy I9000 in use, and 1 spare phone as backup.
Some of my collegue (and me aswell) changed our rom to Darky 9.5 and we are all very happy with it.
Now there is 1 phone that needs to return to the shop for repairs and i wanted to make a backup from the spare phone we have here. So i could flash his phone back to original rom.
I am from the Netherlands and the Rom that comes with the Phone is:
KIES says:
- PDA: JPC
- Phone: JPP
- Modem: JS2 (KPN(provider))
*#1234# says:
PDA: I9000XWJPC
Phone: I9000XXJPP
CSC: I9000KPNJS2
Is there a way to back up this Rom ? Or any other ideas on how to get this rom on the other phone ?
ty in advance for tips and tricks

well you could root a phone that is on stock ROM and make a nandroid backup and restore that on the phone to be sent back..
or you could go to www.samfirmware.com and find your firmware there and flash it using ODIN.

You have a 2.2 release, there is a 2.2.1 for this phone :
Code:
CheckFusDownloader_v0.5.exe -dl I9000XWJPC/I9000KPNJS2/I9000XXJPP/I9000XWJPC KPN

It's the official ROM is you try to upgrade your phone with Kies 2.0. You can try to install a SpeedMod Kernel before upgrading to format system and cache and wipe Dalvik cache, return in Download mode and Flash this ROM via Odin v1.3 in "One file Mode" (no repartition and no pit file, just the ROM in PDA file).
You need to have the 3 button combo working to do all this things to go in Recovery mode for "clean up" the phone via SpeedMod (no necessary but always good to do).

Ideal backup would be genuine original rom or genuine updated rom via Kies and back that up as stock factory rom .
I did via Kies registry spoofing and i believe that current Kies allows you to save firmware or at least its downloaded during the update and you save a copy before the actual update .
jje

Ooh a kies registry spoofing. Hmmm will have to look that up tomorrow. Is that hard to do ?
Will i be able to put that firmware on any sgs ?

Hum, my reply make download on PC the OFFICIAL release on Samsung FUS server used by Kies 2.0 and it's a working method NOW. Registry spoofing doesn't work anymore !

Hi, i replied the topic on my phone. now i see the replies that came before the registry 1..
Ty all for helping me. i am gonna try some and let you know the outcome.

[Q] odin successful but stuck on boot

hi XDA members ..
am kinda new on this stuff "noob".
i bought my sgs (GT I9000) from KSA with (and am not sure) I9000JPJG8 frimware.
the whole story is that i tried to upgrade to froyo but the process didn't when well and odin was stuck. so i ignorantly pulled the usb out, and had that phone->attention-> pc sign. but i was able to get to download mode. later i noticed that i used a I9000M froyo firmware.
anyway, i read through threads about semi-bricked sgs and found that i must reflash again my stock firmware, and that's what i did.
the odin flash is successful and the phone shows the galaxy s startup screen and then that loading sign and the loop starts ( loading sign appears - disappears -appear again ..etc) i pulled out the battery and powered it on to have a Galaxy s startup screen loop also.
i can't get to recovery mode, and here the names of the firmware i used to flash:
I9000JPJG8
I9000JPJPG
I9000JVJPF
I9000UGJH2
i need the firmware to have arabic support so that's why those above where my choices, but i wouldn't mind losing arabic for z sake of my new sgs
sorry if my english is bad
suggestions???!! and thanx in advance

have you been flashing these firmwares with PIT file ??
i think thats whats needed,
try to flash stock eclair 2.2 or froyo 2.2.1 with all 3 files and 512 pit.

i tried all .pit files to no avail...
and what do u mean by eclair 2.2 , isn't it 2.1 ??! and do u mean pit512 , 513 , 803 by the 3 files or what?
thx for replying
edit:
do u recommend certain odin version because i don't know which to use exactly ?

yea sorry i mean eclair 2.1
whenever i have trouble like you, i flash JM1 in all 3 files (phone pda csc ) and 512 pit, with the repartition box in odin checked.
works a treat everytime

i tried it but it stopped in z middle and odin said (FAIL)

have you made sure KIES is closed, even in the icon tray ??
Are you using odin 1.7 ??
also try to connect your phone direct to the motherboard
if it still fails, post me a screenshot of what odin looks like before you press start

oh my .. kies was closed in icon tray but there were some kies related stuff running when i opened the tasked manager. but unfortnately nothing happened , same things are still there.
here z pic , doing the method u mentioned before
h*tp://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/696/odink.png/

right the problem is you are using a firmware compressed into 1 .tar file
remove the pit file - uncheck re partition
remove phone
remove CSC
all you want is OJP_JG9.tar loaded into PDA.

A MAJOR UPDATE ..
while waiting for replies i tried this method in this post using eugene froyo :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10498057&postcount=14
suprisingly my phone now changed to vibrant on start-up and has z following :
froyo 2.2
baseband T959UVJK2
kernel 2.6.32.9
now that it is alive .. can i shift to z froyo 2.2 with arabic support or do u suggest that i stick to it ?

i think i'll change since everything is messed up ..
vol. buttons are reversed .. music is not played through speaker unless head-phones are used .. numerous apps crashing ..
man am soo confused

you have flashed samsung vibrant on your samsung galaxy
that is why you have these problems !
did you download a GALAXY I9000 ROM ?? if not do so now.
Flash it in odin.
If it comes in 3 files (PDA, Phone, CSC) add 512 PIT and select re-partition
If it comes in 1 .tar file. Load it into PDA and DO NOT USE PIT OR REPARTITION
hit start and done, its so simple.
you really ought to read instructions before you go flashing ROMs.

i really did but it looks like i didn't pay attention to GT I9000/M thing ..
ok thanx for z help and i'll reply back when done with z ROM

i hate to be demanding but can u give me links cause am sick of downloading wrong files ((

www.samfirmware.com
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846913

so now my phone powers off when connected with usb ... what shall i do ????

can you boot into recovery ? if so do a full factory reset and try again. and try to flash a rom in recovery (if you have 2e)
i have no idea why the phone powers off with usb.
does it do this in download mode too ??
did you flash a stock rom ?? if so what rom did you choose

i flashed eugene froyo
should i use I9000 method or vibrant method for recovery ??
i got into recovery when i flshed the vibrant rom back then .. :s
edit: a question , have i lost z root thing when i flashed the vibrant or not ?

first of all enter download mode . Try this method ( press home and volume down and insert the usb conected at pc ) , and flash darky resurection 9.2 or ezrom 2.2.1 , i think both have bootloaders , I prefer ezrom ( saved my phone after CM7 or miui )

Which rom should I use to flash?

Here are the details of my tab
Firmware Version: 2.2
Baseband Ver: I987UCJK1
Kernel Ver: 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1
Build Number: FROYO.UCJK1
Carrier: At&t US
So I managed to root my device using Superoneclick but I'm having trouble running clockworkmod because of a package verification error. I've realized that I need to upgrade my kernel to make it work. But I'm having trouble finding the right kernel/rom. I'd prefer to flash a new rom using ODIN but I'm unable to figure out which rom to use. Can anyone suggest me a rom to choose? I'm confused by jk,jv,ja terminology

Flash the rotohammer JME version 4. Then flash chainfire cf root to get CWM. BE SURE TO USE FROYO VERSIONS NOT THE GINGERBREAD VERSION.

I believe AT&T is a GSM tab, uses a sim card, so any GSM roms will work. If its doesn't use a sim card look for the CDMA roms.
I would suggest upgrading to gingerbread as that works really well.
The best advice I could give is read any guides on updating REALLY well, go slow, doublecheck what you've done and DON'T skip steps because you read through already.
If you want to keep all your Contacts, Apps ETC... then backup with Titanium Backup before you flash as this will clear it out...
GSM ROM
Go here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071 it will give you an app thay allows you to check your bootloader.
You may have to go to settings>Applications>unknown sources needs a tick to install.. This allows the installation of 3rd party apps using file manager. Run the app, it will tell you if the bootloaders are locked or ask if you want to unlock... Use at your own risk...
So saying, this was the first gingerbread rom I flashed - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1073854
Instructions were - Procedure (ODIN !):
- Download and extract the firmware zip
- Download and extract the attached gt-p1000_mr_PIT.zip
- Download and extract the attached dbdata.zip
- Flash the firmware tar as PDA, repartition enabled, use the attached PIT
- After flash immediately boot into download mode again - wait for it to go to the samsung LOGO here as a whole heap of writing goes up the screen then it reboots. DO NOT TURN OFF UNTIL IT REBOOTS TO THE SAMSUNG LOGO...
- Flash dbdata.tar as PDA (NO repartition) in ODIN again.
- After flash immediately boot into recovery mode
- Wipe cache
- Wipe data / factory reset
- Wipe Dalvick cache
Then flash this in ODIN - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=593112&d=1305133135
This will root your device.
I then updated to this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074759
Cheers...
Added this set of instructions, it has pictures, remember there will be some differences... - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=596770&d=1305467639

Before you flash anything, kindly check if you have protected/locked/signed bootloaders.

Thanks for the quick replies guys. Do appreciate it. So regarding the bootloaders, what should I milk for?signed, secured??

Just a comment about the procedure above.....unless you have CWM you will not see an option for dalvick cache in the default recovery,at least for mine the last entry was for cache-no advanced features like battery wipe and dalvick......

How to rollback from Gingerbread to Froyo?

Hi All!
Just upgraded today my Galaxy S from Froyo to Gingerbread and I'm not quite happy about it.
Is there any possibility to rollback Gingerbread to Froyo?
Any advise will be appreciated!

Yes, it's possible to rollback. It's little trickier though because the Gingerbread bootloader vs the Froyo bootloader.
You have to make sure your filesystem is RFS and not EXT4 (lagfixed). If it's stock and didn't convert then it's RFS.
Then make sure you can get into download mode (Vol Down + Home then power and hold). If you can, these are the general steps you have to do:
1) go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846913&highlight=stock and download the froyo stock firmware for your phone that comes with a froyo bootloader (this is very important because you'll be stuck in a boot loop if you run froyo on a gingerbread bootloader)
2) extract the file to a known directory
3) put your phone into download mode
4) start ODIN
5) plug in your phone while in download mode
6) check the options in ODIN like it shows in the picture under "How to flash with three files:" plus check "Phone bootloader update"
7) select the files you downloaded and select the proper PIT file (these are firmware dependant)
8) click start to flash
I say these are the general steps because I'm not sure which area you are in. If you can provide the current firmware you have by punching *#1234# in the dialer, we can give more specific infor.

Thanks a lot for advises!

Hmmm...that's weird are you sure this is right?
PDA:I9000XFJV5
How did you upgrade it to Gingerbread? Was it through ODIN?

Grab a stock froyo FW from samfirmware.com (plug in the pda, phone, pit, and csc files) and make sure you repartition it in Odin to wipe your phone clean.
Hopefully you should be all good after that...

Can some please help were i'm going wrong
And thanks for this forum its awesome!!!

you can flash stock firmware with odin

When I used the downloaded stock rom it flashed it sucessfully? via odin

You got wrong stock ROM.
Go to www.sammobile.com
Over there, select device (I9000), select region Europe, then select a ROM corresponding to UK or Great Britain (in the column country) and download it. Flash via Odin.

Tried as above used odin and it flashed ok, now when i check about phone it has the following firmware = 2.3.6 - baseline = I900XXJW4 KERNEL= .6.35.7-i9000XXJW4-CL1043937 [email protected]#2 AND BUILD NO:- GINGERBREAD.XXJW4
After it completed sucessfully I wiped the cache and reset the phone all came up ok, but whne i connect it to kies it still says PDA:JW4/PHONE:JW4/CSC:JW5 (KOR) Your device does not support softwareupgrading via Kies - Any help would be apprieciated

Because jw5 is a non official firmware( the laterst release) and there is no official release for sgs.i think the last official release is jvu

You have to flash the right stock ROM that is available in your country.
Download the right ROM for your country and flash it and make sure its not a custom or modded ROM.
Hope this would help.
