Has anyone found a way to flash back to the original at&t rom when the current rom used is overcome?
I downloaded a stock firmware, but will it work? I need it to work with the at&t splash screen and everything?
I hear mixed reports on this, but nothing successfull yet?
Can anyone help me here?
Thanks
I would also like a at&t stock rom that works. Does anyone have one?

Hi all, I am in somewhat of a confused state right now and hope you can help...
I have one of the first I9000s that O2 shipped here in the UK. My phone reports firmware of PDA/Phone I9000ADJF1 and CSC I9000O2UJF2. As I am in the UK I would have expected this to be one of the I9000XX firmwares and cannot seem to find any reference to the AD firmware anywhere.
Can someone shed any light on what the AD firmware is? Could it be that it is O2 specific and if so, do you think that flashing an XX firmware would cause a problem? I am just a little concerned about flashing this when 2.2 is officially out, hence the questions.
Please forgive my ignorance if the answer is simple, this is my first android phone

Before you do anything...
PLEASE back up your phones rom and host it online!
there are several of us on this forum who have o2 UK phones and have since upgraded losing our original firmware. If you upgrade and dont back up your original rom you cant send it back for warrenty!
So at least make a backup using odin, or if anyone else knows the way to extract the rom please say now lol.
Other then that I9000ADJF1 is fine for flashing I9000XWJM2 or any of the other european ones. the AD just stands for '02'
Will ROM Backup within ROM Manager do as a backup? I had to Root the phone, then backed up ROM to SD card. I got same ADJF1 Rom.
use clockwork recovery from ROM Manager (from the market) and do a nandroid backup

Ye. This is what i did. I just wander what it will contain rppted image. I will probably enable to unroot it later. Will all get back to normal(unrooted phone with warranty) then official froyo arrive?
i want to flash back to stock to install another ROM, i have the rogers captivate and was just planning to use the at&t odin one click, will my sim card still work? since its at&t version? thanks alot.
What are you running and why flash to stock
CM7
was running serendipity 5.12, and updated to 6.0, i didnt worry about my sim, just left it out and used wifi. up and running on 6.0 working good. although i like the swype theme better on 5.12 where would i place the apk from the older version to my phone?
first off DONT use the odin one click to stock. you will get the ATT bootscreen.
unless something isnt working you dont need to go to stock between roms.
read the rogers i896 wiki for stock rom information and how to CORRECTLY flash rogers stock. and fix the ATT boot logo if you already screwed yourself.

EDIT also check out the stock rom link in my sig!
There is a thread in this section that has the steps to go back to rogers stock perfectly I just used it to flash CM7 on it.
Hi guys, im new to the sgs, but got some android experience. I was wondering if i can backup the whole ROM/system from my sgs (running 2.2.1 but its kinda branded from my carrier), so that i can flash the latest 2.3.3 or even 2.3.4 with odin and if for any reason i have to take it into warranty, i can reflash (preferably with odin) the stock branded rom that came with my phone. I would really appreciate, if anyone can tell me that, i searched around but couldnt really find this specific question. ive checked the stock ROM thread, and my version is there but im not sure its the branded one, cuz mine says 2011.02 and the one there says december 2010.
As long as you are rooted and have clockwork mod installed you can do a nandroid backup from the recovery menu I believe.
To restore you would have to flash the same base rom though, i.e. any 2.2.1 ROM then let it reboot then root it boot into recovery and restore nandroid backup.
I think that should work.
I'm sure someone wil correct me if I am wrong.
I wish I had done this when I bought by phone from Orange UK branded.
If you find out how to create an odin version please post here for others too.
ok thanks, i flashed the newer version over anyways.. thanks anyways
Is this correct?

I have the same issue and after having mine sent into samsung for a successful repair (with a bunch of arguing and persuasion) I would like to back up this stock rom before continuing in order to avoid that situation again.
Mines a i9000M (bell version )
You always have to hack the ROM a bit to have a backup. Either you flash a custom kernel that'll give you CWM/nandroid backup or you root the ROM so you can do some adb magic.
There are also tons of stock ROMs floating around the interwebs, so with any luck you can find your own stock there.
hi all
i picked up a used rogers galaxy tab 7".upgraded to 2.3.3 official via kies.
GT-P1000R
rooted it.
unlocked it.
now i wish to use the phone capabilities and have a few questions.
i see in a couple posts that you no longer have to flash a complete rom,just a modem.
is that info correct?
i see that the jm2 modem seems to work best with the rogers tab,so do i just flash the modem with odin and that gives me the voice capability.
or do i need to flash a complete rom(European)?
also there is no dialer program so where do i get that at?or does it come with the modem flash.
is there a better modem than jm2 for the rogers tab?or the bell i9000 modem?
i am in canada
thanks,jeff

you need a euro based rom (official or custom) and bell i9000 modem.

i prefer 2.3.3
thanks

Careful what you flash though, if it's from XDA any ROM should do you okay but Samsung official ROMs may contain locked boot loaders. Catch up on some reading before doing anything.
Also i suggest that you do a complete backup of your tab before flashing anything else so that you could revert back in case of issues. Stock ROGERS firmware is hard to find. And if you do a backup I wouldn't mind a copy of it as long as you keep your personal information out. As a matter of fact, what i am after is a un-rooted fully stock ROGERS ROM. As i have deleted my original backup, and would like to revert completely back to stock, I would be very thankfull if you could help. But none the less you should do a complete backup, something like the roto or nandroid backups.
Try the OVERCOME rom, it's a great place to start as a noob to flashing, they have very detailed tutorials and the ROM is good.
EDIT: And the OVERCOME rom does work with the bell i9000 modem just fine for phone calls. Although the volume on the tab is not the greatest for a speakerphone.

darned,i rooted and unlocked it earlier this week.
i definitely would have done a stock backup for you.
can i unroot?i used oden and one of the cf rooting images.
unlocked using galaxy s unlock from market.
can i even revert back to stock?if so i will do a backup.
i have done nothing else to the stock rogers 2.3.3
i searched my hardrive but kies must delete the firmware after flashing.

Thanks for the offer. But no need to go through all of that unless you can un root with something like super one click (fast and easy, but I don't think that will work for you). If your tab is still under warranty you might want to learn how to root and unroot and restock and such (its all covered in the forums). Otherwise I don't want you playing with your tab and have a "bad" flash trying to help me out. Do read up in the dev section before you start flashing custom ROMs.
That said if you do feel comfortable flashing and decide to make a backup for yourself I definitely wouldn't mind a copy.

hi
not scared of bricking the tab,i have been flashing samsungs for the last couple years,captivates etc.my last tab i did a supposed gps fix which ended in a bootloop.
i managed to get it back but with a modified 2.2 firmware.then kies would not let me upgrade to 2.3.3(unofficial firmware error)
my problems have always been actually returning to stock.
in recovery i have the orange clockwork recovery that has an option to do factory reset.will this take me back to unrooted and unlocked???
if so consider it done.
i will need direction to do a full backup after that.
jeff
Doing a hard reset will NOT un-root or re-lock your device (as far as I know). The factory reset will clear the data and cache and should not touch the system. You have to un-root your device using the method you rooted it with or something along those lines.
As far as a backup is concerned, creating a system backup has been covered in the forums before. There is plenty of detailed instructions on performing a backuphave a look at the Roto Backup method.
Just picked up a galaxy tab ( rogers )
gt-p1000r
firmware 2.2
all stock
no root
no unlock
I would like to "give back" something
for all the HELLp you guys have given via these forums
( i swear all my grey hair started once i dumped my blackberry and went samsung and found this site! )
Anyway
If you are still looking for the a copy of the STOCK system before I start to play...
I will try to figure out how to make a copy for you
Hey guys i really need some help. I tried to install clockworkmod on my T-mobile samsung galaxy s (sgh-t959v) and i guess i bricked it. All that comes out on the screen is a phone and a computer. can someone pls tell me what to do to fix this and install the right way.
Thank you in advance
Fairly new to all this myself and don't have experience with T-Mobile but if you go here you should be able to get a Firmware for your phone: http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=SGH-T959V&r=5#regiona
You should be able to download a stock firmware, odin & everything else you need to flash your stock firmware. From this site.
Perhaps wait and see other responses though as there maybe a way to fix without flashing a stock firmware. Also getting some info from someone with your phone on T-Mobile may be better.

Just confirming that what scubadude said above. Flash new firmware, it is a soft-brick and therefore recoverable. Something that needs to be added however is that you will need to make a login in-order to access the direct link. If the link still doesn't work after that then click firmware and follow on from there..
