Factory Condition - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, so let's say you want your phone to seem to a Samsung rep to have never been rooted or messed with in any such fashion.
What exactly, all in all, would you say you would have to do to get it back to such a condition after having been rooted?
I assume it is something like,
Reset the counter with a usb jig
flash original firmware
But it would not surprise me if there were other loose ends that could end up messing you up as well, so I thought I'd ask.

flash a complete firmware package. custom download counts are stored in the PARAM.lfs partition.
This should do it for you. flash once to enable the "Flash Bootloaders" checkbox then check it and flash again.
This Java JAR file works on Linux, Windows and Mac. Just have java installed on your computer and follow directions (if any).

[Q] Semi-bricked Phone

I admit I am the noob of noobs, so this complete jobber asks for your help.
Having been on 2.3.5 Gingerbread XFJVA using the method from the website below and this worked perfectly fine
http://androidadvices.com/update-samsung-galaxy-i9000-official-gingerbread-235-xfjva-firmware/
I tried to root the phone and upon rebooting was faced with this screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The phone can enter download mode (but not recovery mode), but I'm scared to try anything without reassurance. What do I do? can someone please give me some step by step help, I just want to get back what I had before the root (ie. the 2.3.5 XFJVA)
Thanks!

Try this, with the correct PIT and PDA files:

correct,
you have now to reflash the entire stock Samsung ROM with Odin, checking RE-PARTITION and with the correct pit file.
my bad, forgot to quit Samsung Kies.. that was the problem..

[Q] Does anyone know

Sorry fella i have no real clue this is my first post and i am a total noob... Still laughing from the video before registering. But heres my totally uninformed first thought, could it be that it needs to have writable sd partition, hopefully someone substantially more informed will help you out soon. I just thought id post because i noticed no one else had and youd only had one view. Lol Ive a bit of an issue myself but im a little afraid to post after the vid, even though iv'e been scouring internet for days with no answers! Lol good luck bud hope it all works out
Have you rooted your phone before flashing? Also, have you tried to do the wipes on the recovery?
Not sure if any of those will fix it for you, but eh, it's better than nothing
Is the romantic on the phone partition or on a external sd card, and have you set the install location to the correct partition

i guess you have not rooted your phone..
and if you did..you are trying to flash a rom through stock recovery?
please search before you know what to do..
we only flash it via cwm recovery, mobile odin or pc odin..
am i correct?
What are you trying to flash, rom type, backup? Need more info.

Are you sure youre in the right forum? There is no 2.3.4 for the i9305. And as far as I know you can't downgrade from 4.4.4 to earlier versions.
The link you posted does not work for me.
Content of refered post:
1. Unpacking firmware
2. Delete sboot.bin and tz.img
3. Copy firmware files in /parts folder
4. Run TAR.MD5_PACKAGER.bat
5. 1 make TAR
6. 2 make MD5
7. End
In /packaged folder your .tar.md5 firmware archive
Not rename your new firmware archive.

As far as I know there is no 2.x version of Android to 9305.
Oldest version You can get is 4.1.
But when You have 4.4, any downgrade will trigger knox flag and make warranty void.
Anyway there is no logic reasons to go back to older system. If you want to change something, you should search for custom roms.

Bricked my CM G1, need to flash in QPST or miflash?

So I bricked my CM android one 2nd gen and it's not booting up, I can only see boot page like forever.
How did I come to this?
I cleared the cache in recovery then it somehow corrupted the /cache folder.
What I forgot to do is I did not enable OEM unlocking in settings so I cannot flash anything in flashboot and adb.
I'm stuck because my phone is
1. Not rooted
2. Bootloader locked
3. No custom recovery
4. Stock Android
What I plan to do now is to use the QPST or miFlash, I have already installed the necessary drivers and I can see my phone detected in download mode (using COM port)
My problem is I don't know where to look for the files needed. Or I'm not sure if these are the correct files I need because I just got the screenshot from other qualcom based phones. But I want to try it.

Thank You very much
I think your device could pretty easily be fixed by just reinstalling the stock ROM through Odin.
Follow these simple steps:
Download stock ROM from SamMobile. Here is a direct link to your device. Simple select the right firmware for your phone and download.
Download flashing tool, in this case, Odin. Make sure to download it from a reliable source as 3rd parties sometimes do include viruses.
Boot your phone into download mode by pressing the Volume down and Bixby button at the same time as you plug in the USB-c cable.
Use Odin to flash all the stock firmware files except for the HOME_CSC one.
Congrats you have successfully recovered your phone. Now give yourself a well-deserved pat on the back.
Also, please place your thread in the right forum in the future. That way you can get help much quicker.
If this answer did help you, please mark it as the solution as it help people in the future.
