Firmware - newbie help

Hi all,
I am wondering if someone can guide me to the correct direction.
This is my phone (samsung Galaxy I9000)
Model GT-I9000
Firmware: 2.1-Update 1
Base Version: I9000 DTJG3
Kernel 2.6.29 [email protected]#2
Build Number: ECLAIR. DTJG4
It is unlocked - orginally from Optus.
this phone feels very slow and not very responsive at the moment.
I am thinking of upgrading the firmware hoping that it will improve the persformance
Can someone please tell me which firmware will be best for me? I'm not going to root the phone and I am just after most effecient firmware (good wifi, GPS and signal)
I am not sure which one is most stable for my phone.
Thank you

you could flash a stock gingerbread rom.the ones with bootloaders.jvh is pretty stable.2.3.4 ones will have phone fc bug..you'll hv to root ur phone to get rid of that bug..stock roms u can dwnld from ramads thread..for gps/wifi/signal u will have to flash the appropriate modem.there was a thread comparing modems somewhere here on the forum.try searching it.if u really want near zero lags it would be best to do ext4 lagfix..but again rooting will be reqd.gb roms are fast without these but lagfix still brings noticeable change.

Thank you for the reply.
It seems that I am gonna need to do root on it.
If that is the case, It will be much appreciated if I can be pointed to the correct link (tutorial - step by step) to get this process.
After reading some of the psosts I get really confused with all the type of firmware and kernel etc...
any suggestions and links I can follow will be much a great help much appreciated
Thank you again

Read the tutorials carefully, then read them again and again until you are sure and confident. do not use if you dont feel confident.

Make sure you have the 3 button combo (recovery and download).

You should be able to update to gingerbread via Kies JVN 2.3.3 -optus

Hello, you can try JPY on 2.2.1, it's a stable firmware without the bugs of the gingerbread, if you doesn't want to root your phone.

Thanks for all the replies guys,
I just upgraded to GingerBread 2.3.3 XWjVN.
My next question is:
If I want to get rid of all those Optus rubish - Can you please tell me which firmware do I need to install?
There are so many types and I really get confused which one is going to work for me.
I have seen my friend's SI9000 very fast and snapy - is the firmware upgrade the way to do it?
Thanks again guys

Flash any custom roms from here CUSTOM ROMS

I need help rooting my galaxy s (2.3.3)

my phone is galaxy s:
firmware version: 2.3.3
baseband version: I9000XXJVQ
kernel version: [email protected] #2
build number: GINGERBREAD.XWJVN.
i am in Greece so the version of android is 2.3.3
Can anyone tell me safe steps to root my phone, unroot my phone and if there will be risks and troubles when i ll root my device?

Hi there is no root package available for JVN....you could install a pre rooted stock samsung firmware via Odin...(google or you tube it first then ask questions if unsure) , if you then want to unroot the phone you just install a totally stock samsung firmware.

thanks
ok thank you i ll try it...

Flash cf-root kernel with Odin or search and download "oneclickroot" to your PC and follow instructions.
Search for cf-root

[Q] I9000 Rooting Help!

Hi there! I apologise for the question as you probably get this a lot.
I can't find a clear and concise tutorial (that i can understand) on how to root my Galaxy S and its specific version.
Can anyone help me and point me in the right direction?
I am not entirely new to rooting as i've rooted my GS3 fairly easily, this however seems more difficult.
Here are my phones information:
Firmware Version 2.1-update1
Baseband Version I9000XXJM1
Kernel Version 2.6.29 [email protected] #2
Build number ECLAIR.I9000XXJM1
I understand I have to download a kernel of some kind so I can root in within ODIN...however there are so many CF versions I am really stuck
Thankyou in advance and a quick reply would truly be appreciated. Thankyou!

Ok...You are still in froyo so you have to update to gingerbread 2.3.3 then you have to install the "JW4_JW4_JW4" value pack that will update your i9000 to 2.3.6, only now you can flash a rooted kernel..

FYI 2.1 is eclair, not froyo. That's 2.2
Rooting Eclair is easy as hell. Just use the one click root tool.
