I screwed up I know what I did wrong Bell Samsung Galaxy S is now stuck in a boot loop.
But I was had a moment was rushed and didn't write down current phone info.
I need to restore the phone where can I find the .pit file and factory image for this phone?
The phone is currently in Download Mode loaded in Odin awaiting files.
Samsung Galaxy S i9000-M
How do I know which file to get if I didn't check info before getting phone stuck in loop it's a Bell Mobility Samsung Galaxy S i9000M
UGKC1/UGKC1/BMCKC1/Sbl (MultiCSC): Download (143.5 MB) (
UGJL2/UGJL2/BMCJL2/Sbl (MultiCSC): Download (143.3 MB)
UGJK3/UGJK3/BMCJK3 (MultiCSC): Download (142.5 MB)
OK and now I see there is a 512/513 and 803 ipt file which of those would I use... anyone?

you need 512 pit
flash KG3 in odin as pda, phone and csc
or you could flash JVR as your pda, and use the KG3 phone for your modem and KG3 as your CSC -- this would give you the correct csc, a gb modem and the most recent official samsung firmware, jvr as your pda file
if you are in a bootloop with odin but have download mode showing, no need to panic, I would not even worry about pit, just flash the jvr pda file with kg3 in phone and csc and tick auto boot -- the odin flash will repartition the sd card anyways.

Hello everyone,
I was hoping that someone would be kind enough to validate my proposed procedure for installing the XXJPU I9000 ROM (with BELL UGJK3 Modem) on my Captivate.
I've spent many many hours pouring over the Captivate and I9000 forums, but I still wanted to have someone check over my procedure before I take the plunge.
My proposed procedure is:
Use the ODIN one-click to revert back to JF6 stock for Captivate.
Download the XXJPU package and 512 PIT from samfirmware.com
Download the Bell UGJK3 modem from this thread on XDA
Dowload xcaliburinhand's 2.2.1 I9000 reoriented kernel on XDA from here. I will download the non-Voodoo version.
Extract the XXJPU package, and copy out the TAR for the XXJPU PDA.
Download ODIN 1.3.
Start ODIN.
Reference the tar file for the XXJPU PDA in the PDA section of ODIN.
Reference the 512 pit file in the PIT section of ODIN.
Reference the Bell UGJK3 Modem tar file in the PHONE section of ODIN.
Make sure Repartion checkbox is checked (because I have more than just the PDA file).
Connect Phone using USB cable.
Restart Phone in download mode (I use ADB to do this).
Click Start to flash the PDA, PIT, and PHONE (modem) to the phone.
Restart the phone. When phone is at Welcome screen disconnect phone from USB.
Close ODIN. Start ODIN.
Reference the I9000 2.2.1 reoriented kernel in the PDA section of ODIN.
Do not check repartition.
Connect the phone to the computer via USB.
Put the phone into download mode again (using ADB).
Click Start to flash the I9000 2.2.1 reoriented kernel.
When Phone reboots, everything should be working.
In addition to validating this procedure, I was curious about CSC files and if I also need to flash one of these.
Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert

this is all overly complicated.
take the modem that you want, and the kernel that you want and drop them into the clockwork flashable rom (there are a couple of them already made up on the i9000 boards). they go in the updates directory in the zip file.
i wouldnt use the odin version of jpu...i would go with a doc's custom or darky's
Hello all,
I have an i9000 running:
PDA: I9000XWJPA
PHONE: I9000XXJPP
CSC: I9000XEFJP3
Build Info: 2010.10
According to the firmwares linked in samfirmware.com, this seems to be the following firmware
I9000XWJPA ## 803.PIT Version 2.2 2010 October DOWNLOAD 1 file select NO .PIT
As many people reports that XXJPY is faster, I'd like to upgrade my cellphone to this newer version. However, samfirmware.com states
I9000XXJPY ## 512.PIT Version 2.2.1 2010 December DOWNLOAD 1 file select NO .PIT
So, the PIT file is different. What does this represent in terms when upgrading using ODIN? Can I perform this upgrade safely from my current firmware?
In that webpage there are two warnings: "Please when you have only one file SKIP RE-PARTITION!" && "Use only .PIT files if you have 3 files!" However, I have a different PIT file in my current firmware, so I suppose I have to use the 512.PIT file even having only one file. But what about the rest of files? And... when changing the PIT file, should I repartition & wipe my phone?
Thank you very much!

Try without re-partitioning, it should work. If it does not you can always re-flash with re-partition (using the 512.PIT).
Succeeded!
Hello all,
first of all, thank you admins for moving this thread into the appropiate subforum
I want to share my experience about the successfull upgrading my phone into XXJPY just in case anyone is looking for the same.
First, I downloaded the XXJPU & XXJPY firmwares from the samfirmware.com and also ODIN 1.3. I installed successfully XXJPU firmware on my phone using ODIN through the cellphone download mode. I set Repartition, I chose the 512-PIT and the 3 files (PDA, MODEM and CSC). The ODIN process took approx 3 mins and the time needed for the phone to reboot was not exhagerated (2-3 mins?).
Then I upgraded my phone to XXJPY in a bad way. I reopened ODIN, I checked repartition, I chose the 512-PIT and put the XXJPY single file into PDA. After upgrading, the phone was not able to boot fine. It showed some strange error when booting only the first time, and after that, every boot turned into showing the Samsung logo endlessly.
So, I reflashed XXJPU as described before. And then flashed XXJPY using the 512-PIT, without checking repartition and I set the PDA file to be the .tar file downloaded from the firmwares webpage. After that, the flash took about 3 mins, and again the first boot took some extra time. But finally, I got the phone running XXJPY, which indeed is running smoother than the original fw I had.
In brief:
You can upgrade from:
PDA: I9000XWJPA
PHONE: I9000XXJPP
CSC: I9000XEFJP3
Build Info: 2010.10
to
PDA: I9000XXJPY
PHONE: I9000XXJPY
CSC: I9000XXJPY
Build Info: 2010.12
at least upgrading first to XXJPU (repartition, 512pit, tri-file) and then to XXJPY (no repartition, 512pit, one-file).
Regards.
Hi,
Trying to unbrick my phone is driving my mind totally mad!
So far I have tried installing several CF roots with ODIN and tried to reflash the ROM with I9000XWJS3. All of them lead to no success, just a black screen and the phone vibrates every 10 seconds.
Trying to find information on this forum is easy.. but trying to put all those pieces of information together is somewhat impossible for me.
I am from the Netherlands and bought this SGS 2nd hand from someone who has rooted it. However I have no idea how that person has done that with which piece of software. I also have no idea what build number it currently has. However I do know there is no sim-lock, because the owner bought it from the KPN telecom provider and has no problems using a sim-card from T-mobile.
I am able to get into the download mode (3 button combo thingy) and Odin can successfully flash the ROM of my SGS.
Now what I need to know is which PIT, ROM, CSC, Modem files etc. I need to make this phone working again. Preferably I'd like to run it on Froyo 2.2.1 with Android market installed.
try downloading the firmwares from samfirmwares.com
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846913 download the firmware from here. preferably JM8 flash that thru odin with PIT and REPARTITION and that should do the trick. then you can flash over a new rom like JPY (2.2.1)
I've successfully unbricked my Galaxy with the 'Froyo ROM that does not brick' here - "h t t p://w w w.4shared.com/file/dJiyRz3v/EUGENE373_SamsungS_Froyo_PDA.html" (Can't post as actual link because I'm not allowed to yet, just copy and paste the bit between the speech marks into a new window and remove the spaces).
As per previous poster's instructions; flash through Odin as PDA with PIT and REPARTITION (Original instructions for this ROM said not to use repartition but that didn't work for me)
You should then be able to Odin flash any new rom you like, but when you do DON'T use REPARTITION or PIT, otherwise your phone will just get bricked again.
I feel that flashing the firmwares which needs partition is safer and better than those that isn't....for my case I prefer flashing JPU than JPY or JPX...it works every time I got my phone semi-bricked, hehe...
Hello,
Yesterday i had similar problem ater trying to flash Darky's resurrection edition.
After the boot i had a black screen just like you.
Here's how i finally unbricked:
Download
- PIT 803 file multiupload.com/6JX2LEUCTY
- I9000XWJS3 pakcage from samfirmware.com (european for my case), PIT803 version : hotfile.com/dl/100247999/301207f/I9000_XEN_I9000XWJS3.rar.html
(The pwd is samfirmware.com)
The package I9000 XEN I9000XWJS3 contains 3 file (which i think is the key, trying to repartition with only one PDA file seem to soft brick the phone)
In Odin, tick repartition, for PIT select the PIT 803 file
For PDA, choose I9000XWJS3-REV03-ALL-low-CL830616.tar.md5
For CSC, choose GT-I9000-CSC-XENJS3.tar.md5
For PHONE, choose MODEM_I9000XXJPY.tar.md5
After the flash, your phone will reboot in rescue, unplug it and do a wipe/factory reset, then reboot and you should be ok.
The goal was only to unbrick my phone, but i'm totally happy with this firmware for now, my phone is a lot faster than before, and i don't feel the need of a lagfix anymore!!
Please note that this is just my experience, and you should wait for more advanced users help.
I've flashed onto my galaxy s 2.3.5 JVS firmware and im trying to flash onto that the official t-mobile firmware. i downloaded it off sam mobile website and the only file it gave was the pda. I flashed it onto my phone but it kept boot looping. im now going to try flashing it through mobile odin as the computer version caused the boot loop.
the file is JV9_JV7_JVO.tar
Does this flash need a pit file or just the pda?
thanks
You only need a .pit file if you have 3 files in your firmware pack and have repartition ticked in Odin.
hi frnd i own a Xperia Neo V but here i am for my frnd he has did something wrong with his phone and its not booting up i can enter recovery/download mode i just want to knwo how to flash i9000
i have downloaded
Flashprogram Samsung I9000 + Pits
firmware version XAJW5_XEU from samfirmware
i have flashed 5830 and 5801 but i dont find odin to be similar as them
can any1 tell me how to flash i9000 and what pit to use cause i can see 3 pits in it
803
513
512
or a full procedure will be helpful
am just trying to help my frnd to fix his S1
you will need to have the galaxy S drivers installed on the computer they can be downloaded and installed as part of Kies or seperatly from a thread in the I9000 (SGS) section of XDA just search for "Samsung Drivers.exe"
As for flashing Phone put it into download mode and connect USB cable
If the file downloaded is a single file .TAR place into PDA of odin
if 3 file place PDA into PDA, CSC into CSC and PHONE into PHONE and flash.
Most GingerBread ROMs use 512 PIT check on samfirmware as to the suggested PIT file.
NOTE a pit file is not always required but cannot hurt. just ensure that repartition is not checked
what will happen if i re partition it.. will it format everything

re partition will fully wipe the OS partitions, not the SDcard partition but sometimes errors do occur with the SDcard.
The ROM on the phone does retain a copy of the PIT file and can access it during a odin flash.
it is very important to use the correct pit file for the rom or it will not boot
