I want to install Darky (DarkyROM v10.2) - Will this work?
It will be much appreciated if someone can point me to the right direction because all the guide that I came a cross are saying if I am coming from ECLAIR and Froyo. and none is stating from the spec I have got.
any suggestions is much appreciated
Quick Step by Step guide:
1- You have to look if you have enabled the 3-combo button and also I think it's good to do a EFS backup and save it in your computer.
2- Download Darky 10.2 Resurrection Edition and follow the guide to install it through Odin ( enter download mode, conect USB, check repartition, select pit file, PDA... Etc)
That has to work.
Ok, here you go:
1. Download stock JVQ firmware (http://hotfile.com/dl/122481899/943a689/I9000XXJVQ.rar.html) and unrar it.
2. Download some kernel that supports CWM. Like speedmod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044519) Follow the link and bottom of the first post, there is links, choose one of those.
3. Download Odin 1.3 (http://www.mediafire.com/?zgbta2co4uyct2z) There is also 1.8 but 1.3 works well too.
4. Download Darky's v10.2 (http://www.multiupload.com/NFEDVYNHZX)
5. Open Odin, its .exe inside the .zip you downloaded.
6. Check you have only auto reboot and f.reset are ticked.
7. go to PDA-section: choose PDA file from the JVQ pack you downloaded. Its named CODE there. Then click the MODEM button and choose modem from JVQ pack you downloaded. Its named MODEM there. Then click CSC and choose CSC file from JVQ pack.
8. Put your phone into download mode: shut it down. Then click volume down, physical meny button and power button at the same time. It should show yellow and black screen with Android mascot digging hole.
9. Plug your phone in to PC. In Odin, you should see one of the little boxes turns into yellow. (if not make sure you have latest drivers installed, download KIES if you want them quite easily)
10. When the box is yello, click "start" button in Odin.
11. When it says "PASS" green box should appear and the phone restarts itself. Unplug your phone and wait till it reboots.
12. When it has rebooted shut it down again and put it into download mode again. Do NOT plug it in yet to PC.
13. Press "Reset" on Odin. Then click the PDA button and select speedmodkernel that you downloaded. You don't unrar it. Check that only f.reset and autoreboot are ticked. Then click "Start". It takes few seconds and "PASS" text appears with green box.
14. Wait till you phone reboots. Put Darky's ROM into you internal SD card's root. DON'T unrar it! Just copy it straight to you intSD card.
15. Shut down your phone. put it to recovery mode by pressing Volume up, physical menu button and power button until Samsung galaxy S thing pops up. Release keys and wait.
16. Now you have CWM in front of your nose. use volume down and volume up buttons to navigate in CWM. Go to "select zip from sd card". Click it with power button. Then choose Darky....zip there and click Yes when next menu appears. Texts starts to scroll and when its ready, click "reboot system now". It might do it by its own. i don't remember..
17. It takes some time till phone is ready and reboots.
18. Enjoy
ATTENTION! MAKE SURE YOU PACK UP EVERYTHING YOU NEED. DO ALSO NANDROID BACKUP IN CWM BY CLICKING "backup/restore" and there click "back up ALL" DO that BEFORE you install Darky things!
Thank you for the quick replies - much appreciated - I still have few things to confirm with you guys.
1. Download stock JVQ firmware (http://hotfile.com/dl/122481899/943a689/I9000XXJVQ.rar.html) and unrar it.
### Does this one has to be the JVQ? when I look at Samfirmware the JVQ is for Europe. I am in Australia - will this be a problem?
2. Download some kernel that supports CWM. Like speedmod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044519) Follow the link and bottom of the first post, there is links, choose one of those.
### I have looked at the bottom link and there are 3 options to download. which one should I download? is it this ??: File Type: tar speedmod-kernel-k15i-t10.tar - [Click for QR Code] (7.21 MB, 3436 views)
### How do I install the Kernel?
I am very sorry if this is such very basic questions but I have tried to read it but I just can not get my head around it.
any help is much appreciated.
Regards
1 It isn't a problem
2 Yes is that. You can flash it via sgs kernel flasher (download it from the market) or via odin. You must put it in pda and flash without pit and repartition

Thanks again.
I am so very close here - when I try to download the JVQ - my download manager is saying file does not exists. I go to samfirmware and it says the same. Can I use any other firmware ? Can I use my current firmware?
If I can not use my current firmware, which are the other firmware I can download and use.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME GUYS - MUCH APPRECIATED
Are you using the browser of your phone?

Just tried again and now downloading - very strange
so, correct me if I am wrong - I will need to download : tar speedmod-kernel-k15i-t10.tar and install it using apps from the market?
then I am ready to follow the full instruction to get darky on to the phone .
Thanks
Yes you are right!

Hi Guys, I got to this stage :
16. Now you have CWM in front of your nose. use volume down and volume up buttons to navigate in CWM. Go to "select zip from sd card". Click it with power button. Then choose Darky....zip there and click Yes when next menu appears. Texts starts to scroll and when its ready, click "reboot system now". It might do it by its own. i don't remember..
### I can not find the the ZIP file of Darky - all I see was the folders which was previously in my SD card.
I already put the ZIP darky into the root of my SD but still can not see it.
When I check the the version:
Build number is Gingerbread XWJVN - Is this correct?
Kernel is 2.6.35.7 [email protected]
firmware version 2.3.3
Please help
Thanks guys
You must go in the folder of the zip file of darky rom. If it is in the ext sdcard choose sd-ext.
Strange you must be on xxjvq. Flash it again via odin

I have just flashed it again and now showing JVQ.
but when I try to browse the CD (sorry not CD - SD card) it seems like it is not there.
Let me try again.
### Have tried again but still can not see the darky .zip I need . - very strange
Thank again for your time and suggestions
Cd?
Darky doesnt support JVR yet.
and about kernel:
13. Press "Reset" on Odin. Then click the PDA button and select speedmodkernel that you downloaded. You don't unrar it. Check that only f.reset and autoreboot are ticked. Then click "Start". It takes few seconds and "PASS" text appears with green box.
Already told how to flash it
That download problem is strange... Try later again. I can't help with that..
p.s. Don't worry your questions, its good you ask
sorry, i was late
so you have copied darky to your intSD card? can you see it if you plug your phone to PC.
You should be able to choose it from CWM.. how about is there something like "install zip from sd card" ?

Yes, there is "Install zip fro SD card but when I execute it, it came up with unable to read of somekind....
Now I have download the Darky rom tool form the market. with this tool I can see the darky.zip file I put in my Sd card. but when I try to flash it it came up with :
runtime error:

Message:
wrapped java.io.IOException: error running exec() command [Su] working directory: null Environment:null(file//android_asset/Resources/functions.js#389
and the flash does not happen. just stop.
Hmmm.... I wonder if I need to clear cache and factory reset it?
Do I need to install super user (busybox*su)?
Hmm.. it might be good idea. Do a factory reset and clear cache and davlik cache. Do it from CWM.
Then put Darky again to your intSD card and try again

"E:\" can't wipe , how can i fomat E: partition ?
i'm keeping on wait
thank you
lets get this correct download mode works
Flashed to Eclair but still fails to boot as voodoo was enabled /is enabled .
Therefore phone cannot be seen by PC and cannot boot to format .
can you get into clockwork recovery mode and format from that and wipe all data .

i'm not good at English , so "Eclair" means 2.1 rom ?
1. when it turn off i can't get in recovery mode ,so voodoo is enabled when i flashed 2.2 rom .
2. i used a software named "UC xunlei" to down a salmpe 720P RMVB video at that time . then it turned off.
3. clockwork recovery can't use . only samsung recovery mode can get in.
4. my i9000 was sending to Samsung service centre yesterday, but they said "maybe they can't repair it either"
"sigh................."
I'll try to walk you through step by step through a method that has never failed..If it still fails then your internal SD might have issues..
1. Download XXJPU firmware from samfirmware.com
http://www.multiupload.com/PUSOOBQ8K5
The password to this zip file is: samfirmware.com
Once the file is extracted, you will have 4 files in it:
GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJPU.tar.md5
I9000XXJPU-REV03-PDA-low-CL747761.tar.md5
MODEM_I9000XXJPU.tar.md5
s1_odin_20100512.pit
2. Open Odin
Download here: http://db.tt/QuA1G6s
That is a sure working Odin. The one I use. Extract that and run Odin3 v1.3.exe
3. In Odin:
check Re-Partition
Click PIT and select s1_odin_20100512.pit
Check and click PDA and select I9000XXJPU-REV03-PDA-low-CL747761.tar.md5
Check and click PHONE and select I9000XXJPU-REV03-PDA-low-CL747761.tar.md5 The file that has MODEM in its file name.. SORRY!!!!!
Check and click CSC and select GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJPU.tar.md5
Do not touch any of the other options. Leave them the way they are.
3. Exit Kies (make sure it is not running AT ALL).
4. Put your phone into DOWNLOAD mode (volume down + power + home) and plug into your computer
5. Click START in Odin... if Odin gets stuck for a LONG time (progress bar isn't moving at all in both phone and Odin).. unplug phone, pull battery, restart computer and repeat from step 2.
6. Once Odin says it succeeded wait for phone to reboot.
7. If you still encounter the same error then report back here... I might have another idea. Hopefully you don't get the error again though...
Edit:
If that fails you can read this guy's post..
This guy seemed to have been lucky and got is supposed dead I9000m SGS working again. Here's his procedure:

That solution looks fine but i'm in worst situation ever since i can't do this:
4. Put your phone into DOWNLOAD mode (volume down + power + home) and plug into your computer
My phone is stuck in the fisrt screen.( with this text Samsung Galaxy s i-I9000)
i can't enter in download mode, i also noticed that even the battery icon doesn't show up i only get loading icon not the battery one. Please help.
damnit, i tried the method anoneemooz posted. But Odin just stops after a couple of minutes flashing, and gave me the error message: Couldn't write to...
I can go in download modus and in recovery mode, but i cannot flash a ROM. I tried a couple of 2.2.1 ROMS
it dispaly " DATA_LOOP=FALSE CACHE_LOOP=FALSE DBDATA_LOOP=FALSE BIND_DATE_TO_DBDATA=FALSE"
now, i still can't wipe or fomat my internal SD Card
notice"E:can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(invalid argument)"
also it shows "Error mounting /mnt/sdcard/ android_secure!
Skipping format..."
Check and click PHONE and select I9000XXJPU-REV03-PDA-low-CL747761.tar.md5
Should that not be MODEM_I9000XXJPU.tar.md5
Ignore it if i am wrong .

Close everything relatet to keys and nps. Check in the tray and close if its running there. Use Odin3 v 3.1 and make sure u put the files in the right place:
PDA=Code
Phone=Modem
CSC=CSC
As pit download 512.pit

Simple question. I messed up my phone and want to return to the original.
I am a Canadian BELL i9000m - JL2 is what I need.
I know more-or-less how to flash etc. my question is this:
I am on the super optimized kernal, and seeARMS 2.2 JL2 rom.
all I have to do is get the original stock firmware released by bell/samsung for i9000m (JL2) and put it into Odin (and then once in download mode) it should work ?
my question is what boxes do I tick
like how do I get my stock kernal back - I need to get the modem, kernla, rom, etc. back to stock - which boxes in odin do I check ?
Disable any lag fixes you may have on the fone and download JL2 from samfirmware, unzip the file then pop it in the pda field in Odin, don't tick any boxes. Put your fone in to download mode - connect to pc then click start. This will flash JL2 on to your fone.

thanks alot man. and this will remove the other kernal too i suppose ?
anything else I have to disable? I put a few other fixes on there I think.
The flash will restore the fone back to stock and remove all your previous data including kernal. Do a factory data reset after the flash

Thanks man -
I assume from there i can try and do it again and hopefully I won't mess up ?
I wonder if you can help me out so I don't break my phone again. Here are the instructions:
To install this ROM:
1. Download and extract the file you downloaded above to the root of your internal SD card (both the "seearms" folder and the .ZIP ROM file).
If you would like to customize your install, continue doing step 2. If you would like a stock install with all the applications + SpeedMod kernel + JL2 modem + Generation X theme, skip to step 3 (however I'd recommend customizing your install. )
2a. Browse to the "seearms/kernel" folder on your SD card and delete whichever kernel you do not want to install.
2b. Do the same with the "seearms/modem" folder: delete whichever one you don't want to install (I'd recommend installing the JL2 modem unless you've specifically had problems with it).
2c. Do the same with the "seearms/applications" folder: delete whichever applications you do not use. You're allowed to delete all of them to create a slim install, or delete none to create a stock install.
2d. Browse to the "seearms/extra" folder on your SD card, and delete whichever extras you do not wish to install (You're able to choose the Generation X theme, blue Android Market, custom boot animations, etc). Most importantly, if you would like the ROM to wipe your data, leave "wipe" untouched. If you don't want it to format your data, delete "wipe".
2e. So, before going further, you should have the following folder structure on your SD card:
"seeARMS.UGJL2.v0.4.zip" - anywhere on your SD card, doesn't matter
"seearms/extra" - customized to your liking
"seearms/applications" - customized to your liking
And a single file in both of these folders, depending on the kernel and modem you wish to install:
"seearms/kernel"
"seearms/modem"
3. Boot into recovery, and select "Install zip from sdcard".
4. Select "Choose zip from sdcard", and scroll to the ROM.
5. Select OK, and wait for the file to flash.
6. Reboot. This reboot will take a while (upwards of 2-5 minutes), so be patient and don't shut off your phone!
Congratulations, you've successfully flashed!
--------------------------------
Basically I get stuck at option 2 to 3
I didn't opt for the "custom" install (2a-2e) so I just went with the normal install and skipped to step 3
some guy said that I needed to delete certain things from the folder to customize the install -- but I didn't see that in the instructions - I just basically downloaded the seeARMS rom.zip and put it in my SD card and installed it from CWM that way -- was this wrong ?
Bin that ****e mate
1. Remove any lag fixes
2. Download the file
3. Unzip it
4. Open Odin
5. Put the unzipped file (now a .tar file) in the PDA box of Odin
6. Put fone in to download mode
7. connect to pc and odin will pick the fone up and the coms box will turn yellow
8. click start and let it do its thing.
The reboot will take about 10 minutes after the flash.
Add:
0) Charge your battery @ 100%.
0') restart your computer, dont start anything in background, open odin only, check and kill all Kies process.
0'') Make some coffee, chill a bit and you good to go.

thanks guys - I understand fully how to get my phone back to stock 2.2 now.
But I still want to re-flash seeARMS rom again -- the question is how to do it without messing up my phone again. As stated, I posted the instructions above, I get stuck at step 2 - not sure how to go about it to be honest
You need to root your fone then flash the custom rom via Clockwork recovery. The instructions above look ****e mate. With the custom rom you put the .zip file on the root of the internal sd card then reboot in recovery then toggle down to install zip file then choose zip file. You must have clockwork recoverymod working first which you can download from the market

"With the custom rom you put the .zip file on the root of the internal sd card then reboot in recovery then toggle down to install zip file then choose zip file. You must have clockwork recoverymod working first which you can download from the market"
I did this - and the ROM didn't come out and work as good (the home button didn't work) the reason I was told was because I didn't "customize" the installation --- apparently I didn't read the instructions correctly -- which is why I posted the instructions and was hoping someone could explain it to me where I was wrong

here they are :
NOTE: If you have a Bell i9000M, do the following to (hopefully) prevent your internal SD card from dying:
1. Upgrade to JL2 using either Kies (recommended) or Odin (make sure to check Bootloader Update).
2. After the upgrade, download and flash Super Optimized Kernel, which will give you access to ClockworkMod Recovery. Instructions to do so can be found in the FAQs (Q1).
(More information regarding the internal SD card dying can be found in Q2 in the FAQ)

Most importantly, if you would like the ROM to wipe your data, leave "wipe" untouched. If you don't want it to format your data, delete "wipe".
2e. So, before going further, you should have the following folder structure on your SD card:
"seeARMS.UGJL2.v0.4.zip" - anywhere on your SD card, doesn't matter
"seearms/extra" - customized to your liking
"seearms/applications" - customized to your liking
And a single file in both of these folders, depending on the kernel and modem you wish to install:
"seearms/kernel"
"seearms/modem"
3. Boot into recovery, and select "Install zip from sdcard".
===============================================
It's in between step 1 and 3 that I get confused - the customization - it says if you want a stock installation just do you what you told me, select from CWM and install from zip card - but I did that and it didn't work
seeARMS said something about a "wipe" version and that I should do that and I should be fine - i don't understand this "wipe" version I wasn't prompted with a choice for this when I did it
I think your best to ask for help in the actual topic/ thread where you downloaded the rom from in the first place.
I have a similar issue, as I stated on the thread I've opened a few minutes ago...

Simple question. I messed up my phone and want to return to the original.
I am a Canadian BELL i9000m - JL2 is what I need.
I know more-or-less how to flash etc. my question is this:
I am on the super optimized kernal, and seeARMS 2.2 JL2 rom.
all I have to do is get the original stock firmware released by bell/samsung for i9000m (JL2) and put it into Odin (and then once in download mode) it should work ?
my question is what boxes do I tick
like how do I get my stock kernal back - I need to get the modem, kernla, rom, etc. back to stock - which boxes in odin do I check ?

The best way to revive your I9000m is to first flash JPC (a three file ROM) with 512 PIT and repartition ticked. The phone will still be in a boot loop. Then flash the JL2 PDA without repartition or PIT. The best way to go back to stock! Has always worked for me. I9000m's are not the same as other I9000's and do not flash repartition and the PDA in the same flash! Good luck!

I have an I9000m from bell, and i just used the JL2 from samfirmware with only the PDA file and it worked for me perfectly. I just had to do a factory reset after flashing and everything was back to what bell gave me.
Hi All,
These are my mobile details previously :
Mobile details: Samsung Captivate
ROM:FROYO.UCJI6
KERNEL VERSION: 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1
BASEBAND VERSION:I897UCJI6
FIRMWARE VERSION:2.2
nUMBER OF aPPS: 46
I am new to the ROM world and this is my first time.
So i strictly followed the tutorial in this link on "[HowTo W/Pack] Flash Stock I9000 2.3.3 NEE Updated (again) 4/25/11"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045734
Which says :
1. Wipe data and cache/Factory Reset with CWM. (pull battery when complete to shut off phone)
2. Find the "GT_I9000_XWJVB_XXJVK_NEEJV3_Sbl.exe" file and click it and extract its contents into its current folder.
3. Open up Odin 1.7 and now select the 512 pit file I included, and select all the files in the necessary place in Odin and make sure "repartition" is selected". your odin should look like this http://d.pr/Ixt2
4. Put Your phone in download mode and connect, now hit start. (THIS IS WHERE THE ONLY DANGER IS, YOU ARE NOW FLASHING 2.3.3 AND THE NEW BOOTLOADER INCLUDED WITH 2.3.3 Just dont unplug your cable or have your computer die, otherwise you will be 100% Clear)
5. Boot up normally and let things settle.
6. now power off the phone and wait for it to shut off completely. at this point hold down "Volume down and Power" at the same time and wait till download digger appears. Open up Odin and select the 512 pit and xcals kernel(In the PDA box) I included and DE-select repartition if it auto selects and go ahead and connect your phone (Obviously needs to be in download mode) and flash.
7. The phone will reboot and once again let things settle (media scanning and whatnot). Plug in the USB cable and transfer the folders included in this pack named "Fixes and modems" and also "For Rooting" to your phone. then power off the phone once again. this time hold down "Volume Up and Power" as soon as you see the screen turn on let go of the power button and continue to hold volume up until you see CWM.
8. at this point you should be in CWM (Woot!). navigate to flash zip from SD and then navigate to the folder "Fixes and Modems" and flash "Enable CRT Lock.zip" and "update-xvjvb-home_button_fix.zip" and I recommend flashing "modem_ugjk4.zip" as JK4 seems to do the best.
9.Reboot. At this point reboot and you should be on stock 2.3.3! Congrats!!
10. If you want to root read the txt file i included for rooting!
I was able to install the ROM till the 7th step,but from there iam not able to apply the fixes and modems.
Once i press the volume up and power button its taking me to Andriod system recovery <3e> mode:
I have four options here:
1)reboot
2)update from sd card
3)wipe data card / factory reset
4)wipe cache parition
when i choose update from sd card by pressing power button,nothing is happing.
Can anyone help me in this regard.
Another issue iam facing is when i make call installing this rom my normal speaker under the at &T logo is not working,i have to switch on the speaker to talk to anyone, and thereturn key is also not working.
Best Regards,
Chandu.
I gt it resolved after installing the correct rom

Anyways,
When you use "update from SD card" option the code is installed from "update.zip" in sdcard - so if there is some garbage code in update.zip it will corrupt the installed ROM on the device (or even the kernel - as might have happened in your case) and errors like bootloop and errors in recovery show up.
That being the background ... you should ask around in the galaxy ace section for specific instructions to use odin to restore your friends phone
Here's a little guide on how to flash a ROM via ODIN by me:
Requirements:
- A Windows computer
- A Galaxy Ace plugged into the computer via USB
- You must have ODIN installed , duh !
- (Windows Vista/7 compulsory) Running ODIN with Administrative rights:
- Ended KIES via Task manager:
Instructions:
1 - Download your favourite firmware here
2 - Extract the .rar out using WinRAR or 7zip (password is samfirmware.com)
3 - Check if it's a FULL package or ONE package:
FULL Package instructions:
1 - Open up ODIN (MAKE SURE ALL REQUIREMENTS ARE MET)
2 - Set your phone in Download Mode (Home + Power + Volume Down)
3 - Once you have correctly entered Download Mode and plugged in , this should appear in ODIN:
4 - Place the files in this order:
OPS - Select the file named Cooper_v1.0.ops (or anything like that)
BOOT - Select the file named "APBOOT_S5830xxxxx_CL514579_REV03_user_low_true.ta r.md5"
where "xxxxx" = Your firmware version
Phone - Select the file named "CODE_S5830xxxxx_CL514579_REV03_user_low_true.tar. md5"
where xxxxx = firmware version
PDA - DO NOT PLACE ANYTHING
CSC - Select the file named "GT-S5830-MULTI-CSC-xxxxxx.tar.md5"
where "xxxxxx" = the CSC region
EFS - Select the file named "MODEM_S5830xxxxx_CL514579_REV03.tar.md5"
xxxxx = firmware version (Be VERYVERY careful with this EFS part)
After you're done , click on "Start" and let the magic reveal itself slowly......
ONE Package method:
1 - Open up ODIN
2 - Set your phone in Download Mode while plugged into USB
3 - Tick the option "One Package" in ODIN (Refer to previous ODIN picture)
4 - Select the only .tar.md5 file
Now press start and watch the magic.....

Hello,
My friend used upd_1.zip from xda to root his phone and then flashed CyanogenMod 7.1-cooper-KANG-RC1 Android 2.3.7 as well as its fix.
He didn't get the "install zip from sdcard" option so, he chose the "apply update from sdcard" option and selected CyanogenMod 7.1-cooper-KANG-RC1 Android 2.3.7 halfway through it says "installation aborted" after this his phone doesn't proceed beyond the startup screen.
PLEASE HELP
Thanks in advance
PS: when I go to the recovery screen, a list of text comes up which says "unable to access...","cannot access cache", etc. All start with "E/..."

Thanks in advance.
sorry for my English.
solved!!!
Downloading the ROM file: I9000XXJVU_I9000OXAJVU_OXA.rar
Downloading the ODIN & PIT files: Flashprogram_Samsung_I9000__Pits.rar
Downloading the Drivers for the PC: SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1_3_2300_0.zip
Most importantly: KEEP YOUR PHONE FULL CHARGED OR AT-LEAST ABOVE 50% CHARGING LEVEL.
Once you are done with the prerequisites, you can move down to the installation procedure as below:
1. Unzip the ROM, ODIN and Drivers to their respective folders in case it requires any password, it will be “samfirmware.com”
2.Now, the first thing to be done is install the phone drivers on the PC which you are to use for flashing the ROM. To do this, navigate to SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1_3_2300_0 folder and select the appropriate setup x86 or x64 based on the type of OS you are using on your PC.
Once this one has been installed, get your GT I9000 in the download mode by using the 3-Button combo. For that, first switch off the phone and wait for it to vibrate a little just to confirm that it is completely switched off. Then, press the three buttons: Power Key, Volume Down and Home Key and hold until you see a green android saying “Downloading”
3. Next, goto Flashprogram_Samsung_I9000__Pits folder and open I9003_Odin3 v1.82.exe (Don’t bother the I9003 in the file name. It is compatible for I9000 also)
4.Once ODIN has be opened, connect your phone to the PC while it is in download mode. Once connected, an “Added” remark will appear on the message window.
5. Next, click on the PIT button, navigate to the Flashprogram_Samsung_I9000__Pits folder and select s1_odin_20100512.pit
6. Then, click on the PDA button, navigate to the I9000XXJVU_I9000OXAJVU_OXA folder and select the CODE_I9000XXJVU_CL851880_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.md5 file.
7. Then, click on the PHONE button, navigate to the I9000XXJVU_I9000OXAJVU_OXA folder and select the MODEM_I9000XXJVU_REV_00_CL1092175.tar.md5 file.
8. Then, click on the CSC button, navigate to the I9000XXJVU_I9000OXAJVU_OXA folder and select the GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVU.tar.md5 file.
PLEASE MAKE SURE TO SELECT THE FILE PROPERLY AS ABOVE AND DOUBLE CHECK BEFORE CONTINUING FURTHER.
9. Next, make sure that Re-Partition, Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time have been check marked.
Once all the above steps are done, click on Start button and wait for the message window to show “All threads completed” and “Pass” displayed on the top left box.
10. Then, click on PDA button, navigate to Kernel_JVU_Fix_sdcard file, and clic on Start!
