[Q] How do I know my original kernel version? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I rooted my phone without noting my original version first. Any way to find out my original kernel / rom?
Thanks

Can you tell us where you are in the world? Are you running a custom rom?
Depending on where you are, we can tell you the possibilities and the latest stock rom/kernel. If you know your stock rom version, it's as easy as looking up the version notes to see the kernel version.

I am from Israel. I am running a custom Rom (when I rooted the phone, I found the rom in a rooting guide- copied from this forum , only then, unfortunately, I found the original rooting thread in this forum..
So currently I have:
Android Version: 2.3.4
Baseband Version: I9100XXKG1
Kernel version: 2.6.35.6-I9100XWKDD-CL161513
[email protected]#2
Build number: Lite`ning Rom 2.0 XXKG1
This info is all from the the "about phone".
Thanks

Go to
samfirmware.com
Go to the mobile section, android, i9000 then look for the most up to date version for your area. I am in canada, so I don't know right now what version it is.
you can tell me the version if you find it, and I can tell you the kernel version.

Sorry, I did not understand your instructions mate, stuck at finding i9000 after clicking on "mobile" link".

You need to find the stock firmware for your region. It's by country, split into north america, asia, middle east and africa, europe and provider firmwares. Once you know that, you can follow a guide to flash the firmware you want.

I9100? That's Galaxy S II. You are posting on wrong forum. Maybe try here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1055 ?

Also you need to be on a deodexed rom to have a custom theme. So root, load clockwork recovery and choose any of the deodexed roms that you will see stickied in the development forum. There's a how to and even more info in there.

do you want to reflash froyo overcome? Or return your tab back to standard, any case, you should be safe if you do a Odin flash back to a rotohammer froyo, then the froyo rom of choice, just follow the overcome instructions but switch the roms for what I said
swyped from a galaxy far far away...
i wanna make my galaxy tab back to normal, just like a freshly baked cake out from the box. can you tell me what firmware do i need to use? im using asia Galaxy Tab. cause im not the expert, this OverCome rom my uncle helped me to do it now hes away, i cant undo it =(
based on the firmwares found on samfirmware, there are different stock asian firmwares available. there is an Indian version (P1000DD), south east asian version (P1000DX), Hong Kong version (P1000ZH) and Taiwan version (P1000ZT).
i myself keep 2 froyo firmwares to go back to:
P1000DXJK2 - which was the firmware that came with my tab when i bought it sometime in december.
P1000DXKM3 - which was posted sometime in february/march that i got from a thai forum.
Singapore galaxy tab should be south east asian right?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
yup. SouthEast Asian Firmware is for you, same as mine.
you could check my other post related to this matter.

broo. i need help ! my galaxy tab keeps showing the samsung boot logo. any help pleasee?
what has happened exactly?
you could try powering down your tab first.
then try entering recovery mode (done by pressing volume up + power button).
wipe your cache and then afterwards restore to factory settings.

Hi I'm a noob myself but I assume you can just follow the overcome guide to go back to stock?... basically, go into download mode And flash "overcome stock froyo safe" using Odin. I may well be missing something but wehenever I mess up and my tab won't boot, I just re-flash...
This is my first attempt at offerring help to anyone here, if i'm wrong please tell me! (Nicely!)

I called samsung south africa this afternoon, they provided me with the following for my device in south africa.
Model Number: GT-P1000
Firmware Version: 2.2
Baseband Version: P1000XXJMA
Kernel Version 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1
Build Number: FROYO.XWJMI
I found it on samfirmware and flashed it using Odin etc.
Now im running the stock rom I initially had.
I have connected device to PC with Samsung Kies, it now tells me that my current version is the latest version. So this means the update for Gingerbread 2.3.3 is still not available in South Africa.
I will go back to Overcome Kratos which was running quite fine thanks
Thanks everyone for your input and advice

[Q] Help to update firmware for my gt-p1000

Hello, I have been reading for a long time now on threads all over this forum and there is simply too much for me to take in. So I thought maybe I could ask for help and one of you clever people could help me.
I would like to update the firmware on my tesco samsung tab gt-p1000 wifi and 3g to anything 4.+ oh and suitable for the uk. I'd like to still be able to make calls, use gps text and wifi general stuff. If some one in the know could suggest all the downloads I would need and point me towards a guide that suits those I would be very greatfull. p.s I think the tablet has been messed about with before as it has no serial number but I don't know.
Please don't just post ''read this thread'' I'm asking for some one how knows this information and just say ''use the modem LINK, this rom LINK, this software LINK and follow this guide LINK or similar.
From my research there are other people looking for the same build. If there is already one out there. link me up please.
I maybe looking for a complete odin build !
currently firmware is 2.2, baseband version 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1 , FROYO.XWJJ3
There won't be an odin build of any custom rom for p1000

Thanks for letting me know that.
So how will I do it?
You can follow my signature to overcome method.
Your have froyo, so you must root your ROM to enable you to check if you have protected bootloader.
And if you do, then to patch it.
Gingerbread doesn't have such issue.
But all that is in overcome PDF guide.
Once you have overcome kernel, it gave you cwm recovery.
With that you flash custom ROM.

Hey, the right section for that question it's the S3 mini Q&A
There people knows better S3 mini's firmwares, ask there and not in another device's forum.
Alright, after a little research in the web, i didn't find any official Israeli stock ROM for GT-8190.
But you can install "MoreLocale 2" App in order to make your phone's language in hebrew.
BUT As far as i know, you must ROOT your phone first and only then it will take effect.
for more info how to root your phone, go to GTI8190 section in find out how to do it:]
sorry anyway
Thanks anyway!
