If you follow the Kies reg hack post and downgrade your phone via Odin to Eclair then you may be able to spoof your upgrade to Orange froyo .

Yes, flash the same as other mid/high packages and you will need to decrypt it first using the decode tool.

[Q] Can I upgrade from 2.1 to 2.3 directly ?

Can i upgrade from 2.1 to 2.3 directly through odin ? or i must flash 2.2 first ?
thx.

some people say yes, I don't know why you couldn't but it isn't much to go to 2.2 first to be safe?

Yes you can it's a complete firmware not an update

Yes, you can. With odin you can go from any version to any version and back. You just need to flash a ginger rom with phone, pda and csc files + pit file.

You can find the stock rom from samfirmware.com
While flashing if you are using a single file then repartition should be unticked, if you are using multiple file pda,pit etc then you have to tick repartition
You are on gingerbread.
In my experience best custom rom is Darky's . you can try 10.2RE then upgrade with 10.2.1

you can roll back to stock rom at any time. for getting stock rom you can visit samfirmware.com
Once you flash the Darky its included the kernel. If you want to change the kernel you can change it later.

NEWBIE HERE,
i already have the latest firmware version as of what Samsung Kies saying. but i know that i could still upgrade my firmware into 2.3.5, i have seen some firmwares of 2.3.5, some of them are just like XXDJVS, XXJV*something). what's their differences? am i going to make it 2.3.4 before making it 2.3.5?
and how will i install it to my phone since i can't use Kies. or i could still use Kies?

umm 2.3.5 JVS is a leaked rom by darky teams so i kies might have it after few months who knows mayb a year?

Its not AT&T stock, but its one of the leaked firmwares. Basically the same thing, but the baseband version is different. If you want to get the AT&T stock GB rom, downgrade to Froyo (KB2) through Heimdall. Note that you don't need to change bootloaders since GB bootloaders are backwards compatible. Once that's done, you can go through Kies to upgrade your firmware to AT&T GB (KK4).
