Hello everyone. I'm usually pretty good at finding what I need on the net, but recently that has changed. I have been trying to get CM7 on my SGS with no luck. I have followed the Wiki (see link below) with little success, as well as the second link. Those instructions gave me a boot loop using talon kernel.
What i'm looking for is someone to help me out based on what my phone is already running.
Model Number GT-I9000M
Firmware Version 2.3.3
Baseband Version I9000UGKG3
Kernel Version 2.6.35.7-I9000UGKG3
[email protected]#2
BuildNumber GINGERBREAD.GKG3
I'm comfortable with ODIN (Used plenty of times to get phone back from the dead a couple of times.)
I've gone through the forums and google as well as youtube. It seems they are always on a custom kernel or firmware before going to CM7, so somethings don't apply.
I'm under the impression that my version does not support CWM recovery and that's why using ROM manager fails with a e-signature error and that changing the kernel can change that.
I know there are some really smart people in here that are already rolling with CM7 I could really use their help. File links that work, and are appropriate for my build and maybe an updated guide for the times.
If you can help me out; thank you so much! If not, I understand people are busy.
Cheers

Same problem here. You can't install CWR with kg3 firmware
Can someone let us know a kernel with CWR that can be flashed to the I9000M?

Just flash to JVT, root with Chainfire's kernal, and install CM7 with CWM. None of the developers bother with making stuff for UGKG3 since not a lot of SGS ship with it.
I think I remember something about stock firmware and bootloaders.
Download a rom that has 3 files + boot loader. (I think Ramad has some JVT rom that will work)
Flash with odin, click update bootloader. If the rom isn't prerooted or if it doesn't come with CWM then flash a kernal with odin that supports it.
Then you should be able to follow the rest of the steps.

This doesn't apply. Your bootloaders are fine, and you're doing nothing but taking a risk by flashing them for no reason.

Look here. This guy knows what he's talking about.
I've never run into this problem, even though I have an i9000m—but that's probably because when I got my phone, we were still on 2.2. If KG3 is giving you troubles, the simplest solution would be to flash a different stock firmware, and then simply proceed from there. Same thing as the above user posted.
Hope it helps! And sometimes it takes time before the right person stumbles onto your thread. Paitence is a virtue.

You would need to flash a full 3 part ROM via Odin. XXJVT should do the job.
Or send me a PM and I can help.

Hi,
I have the same problem... but no one seem to have mentioned any solutions on this thread
i followed step-by-step from the wiki, i did "heimdall flash --kernel zImage" and then the device automatically rebooted... and i am also stuck in this boot loop that goes nowhere...
any help?
Here follow the instructions I gave this guy earlier today. This will get your running on JVT with Kg3 modem and root on your I9000M....from there your can flash cm7 through cwm.

First of all, thanks again for the link ... i got the first of your advice working properly. I'm running JVT with KG3 modem....
however, for some odd reason I can't flash CM7 through CWM. I've tried the stable and nightly versions and each time I flash, I get the to point where it saids "install package" ... and then it just goes into this infinite loop where I see the standard SDS logo screen, then I see the CM7 SDS logo screen... then i see a bunch of commands that the flash is trying to run, but its too fast and I can't see what its trying to do...
either way, it just loops over and over again... and i gotta use ODIN and flash it again, but still no way to run CM7
any suggestions?

Hi jayallen,
I would like to thank you in advance for looking into this for me. I also want to apologize in advance for I think this would have been asked quite sometimes but unfortunately I am not able to find the right firmware. My phone right now is stuck at the samsung logo screen in the start. It is samsung galaxy s and the provider is Bell Canada. It does go into Downloading mode and I have tried many different .pit, pda, modems, csc files but none have worked. I am sure my phone is I9000M and on the latest version of Android (gingerbread). The phone info I think is very similar to the one below:
Model number
GT-I9000M
Firmware version
2.3.3
Baseband Version:
I9000UGKG3
Kernel version
2.6.35.7-I9000UGKG3
[email protected] #2
Build number
GINGERBREAD.GKG3
Can you please, paste the links from where I can get the Modem file and the firmware (PDA, CSC, PIT) which will work with Bell network provider. I think I know how to put it on the device. Any help will be greatly appreciated in regards.
Thanks.

I've read several threads over the last few days and I'm a little confused. I want to make sure I'm on the right track before I use the wrong recovery files.
I rooted my tab(verizon) by using heimdall and applied a stock gingerbread rom with root. now I need to get clockworkmod recovery but when I download it from the market it doesn't list the galaxy tab as a choice to flash the recovery.
I read want to know if I need to use ADB to get CWM Recovery? Is Rom Manager for Froyo only? Is there a Gingerbread version? Will the CWM apply ext4?
I need these answered so I can then move to ICM on my tab as I read that I need CWM and Ext4.
If anyone can answer me that would be a big help. I searched a lot so if I missed something very easy, I'm sorry. I read the Q&A, but I am still left with unanswered questions.
Thanks
Just hemindal miui, and it will give correct cwm

Okay. Look for the cf-root kernel thread. Chainfire prepared a pre-rooted kernel for (almost? ) every firmware.
Look for the right one.
You know how to flash a kernel with odin?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
i dont know the way plz tell me
plz tell me all the steps cause im new at android
Download Odin. You should find it somewhere here on xda or google.
Download the cf-root kernel.
I think its a ".tar"-file.
Open odin.
If you have installed KIES, close both KIES-processes in the taskmanager.
Reboot phone into downloadmode. (Vol down + home + power)
Connect your phone via usb to your pc. A little box in odin should appear now and should say something like "Added".
Now press on the "pda"-button and browse to the cf-root kernel. Click start and if everything is done correctly, xour phone should reboot automatically. Now you should see the app "Superuser".
Hope this helps.
Anyway, im not responsible for any errors or damages to your phone
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
plz give me a link to download the compatible version for my galaxy s thank you very much i know that i bothered you
Okay.
Firt of all, here is the direct link to the CF-Root-Thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
Theres a step-by-step guide by chainfire too.
Download this kernel from his site:
http://download.chainfire.eu/123/CF-Root/SGS/CF-Root-XW_DBT_JVI-v3.7-CWM3RFS.zip
And flash it as mentioned in his thread with odin
Hope this will help you out
im i obliged to use that chanefire ??
No. You could use any other kernel from chainfire. Or you can use Semaphore, Galaxian, Talon, Speedmod or any other Gingerbread-Kernel.
You can either try the 1-Click-Rooting Tool. You should find it on google and somewhere here on xda.
i cant find in one click root my device :crying: or i didnt dee it can you plz go and search for me thank you very much
One more question.
Do you want to root, to do a backup of your apps?
Or do you want to get a Nandroid-backup?
Nandroid-Backup is something like an image of your pc.
EDIT:
Anyway.
The easiest and safest way is to flash the cf-root kernel with Odin.
Follow the instructions in the cf-root kernel and you should be good to go.
Its pretty easy.
I have a rooted Samsung Captivate running gingerbread (2.3.5), baseband v I897UCKK4 with Corn Kernel 2.6.35.7. My Captivate was freezing periodically and I read that a data reset would often fix that. I carefully followed the steps to install titanium backup, moved the backup off the Sd card, went to Settings ->Privacy->Factory Data Reset and cleaned it. When the phone rebooted there were still ghost app icons (with the name of the app under the little Android icon). I went to the next step, which is to put in my google acct info and re-download Titanium Backup to do the restore, but Google Play said it was not installed.
I did the data reset again, and made sure the USB format was checked, but that gave the same result. Whether I restore from Titanium or just download my apps again, I need to get to the play store, and I can't seem to do that. Other forum entries seem to say reflashing a ROM will recover this. Is that the same as re-installing gingerbread 2.3.5? Is that what I need to do? I get lost in the terminology. And could someone point me toward a correct straightforward method for doing this?
Thanks to anyone who can help me. I can manage basic computer maintenance and coding pretty well, but this android world is new territory and I feel pretty incompetent, seeming to ruin my phone whenever I try do improve it.

AT&T Captivate on FROYO 2.2. OneClickRoot, CWM Recovery V2.5.1.2

gapps-jb-2012101-signed.zip
Semaphore_jb_2.0.3c.zip
landscape_fix.zip
Phone booted up fine initially, would always revert to landscape view, back button was now the home button.
Could not find any of my backups. "UI" kept crapping out; "Unfortunately UI is not responding" Think that's what it said!
Had to click OK and it was back until i touched anything and kept happening...
Did Advanced Restore -> CWM Recovery of: System, Data, Cache, ext/sd
Phone rebooted.... Stuck on AT&T logo screen, charging pinwheel shows but doesn't move.
Cannot get into recovery.. managed to get into "dowload mode"
tried i897UCJF6-final-OCD-REVO.zip loaded on computer, phone connected in download mode,
loaded PIT file only as the zip had no PAD file....... NO SUCCESS
If I proceeded in a NOOB fashion, it's because I am so I'll take my licks Lol
Any help would be appreciated!
Figured it best to just get back to stock 2.2, maybe even earlier since I wouldn't have the 3e recovery
problem not being able to install from OTHER sources. Then TRY again after brushing up!!!!!!!!

Did you flash a I9000 ROM? If so, you need the I9000 bootloaders.
Also to downgrade android version, you have to use Odin (i suggest kk4 without bootloaders if you already have the gb ones, which can be found in the stickies).
Make sure you follow the full instructions next time to avoid issues like that.

Ahhh, fello Canadian i see!
You may be correct thinking i have I9000 "JB"? bootloaders!, in the original
thread : Aceofspades replied to a member question stating: "Port means that this
rom is originally made for i9000 and made it to work for captivate."
Should I assume I've flashed an I9000 Rom? and now have JB bootloader?
Thinking back, I did not wipe before going back and using recovery! Not sure that was the problem
but it was on reboot after restoring CWM/system. data. cache etc that the phone rebooted and ended up
in a continual cycling of the ATT logo screen!
Big question now is how do I do to remedy my situation!!
NOTE...I have made a JIG and can get into "download Mode" now
From this point on I'll document my every move in order to be able to provide
the exact procedure I went through... might be more helpful !!
I know I know... NOOB! Lol
PS, is an alternative to use Kies Mini and update to Gingerbread?

First thing: don't use kies at all!
There are no JB bootloaders for the cappy, just eclair, froyo and GB. If the ROM is a port, you'll most likely have to flash the I9000 gb bootloaders but I'd suggest finding another ROM to start with (like CM). Playing with bootloaders is the only thing that will make your phone a paper weight if something goes wrong.
Also, bootloaders aren't included in roms for safety measures. That being said, you can run ICS and JB roms just fine with the GB bootloaders.
As for what comes next. Perhaps use Odin to flash stock kk4 without bootloaders, from there flash corn kernel (once again with Odin) and give CM a whirl following their full flashing instructions. (Which can be found both in their thread and website)
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Understood... NO KIES
Sorry but a little confused still...
Do I Odin flash KK4 w/o bootloaders first -> flash corn kernal with Odin -> then flash a CM ROM using their procedure?
Where in the sequence is "flash I9000 bootloaders?
* No luck finding Odin w/o bootloaders yet, outdated download sites. Will search through xda again.
Noted! "There are no JB bootloaders for the cappy, just eclair, froyo and GB." (I was originally ATT captivate on FROYO 2.2)

As for what comes next. Perhaps use Odin to flash stock kk4 without bootloaders, from there flash corn kernel (once again with Odin) and give CM a whirl following their full flashing instructions. (Which can be found both in their thread and website)
I might be a little hazy on the order of your suggestions so thanks for the patience!
GREATLY APPRECIATING YOUR EFFORTS!!

Understood... NO KIES
Sorry but a little confused still...
Do I Odin flash KK4 w/o bootloaders first -> flash corn kernal with Odin -> then flash a CM ROM using their procedure?
Where in the sequence is "flash I9000 bootloaders?
* No luck finding Odin w/o bootloaders yet, outdated download sites. Will search through xda again.

For now, forget about the I9000 bootloaders.
Here's KK4: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3
During your flashing, did you ever flash the GB bootloaders? If not, get the version with bootloaders and make the the flashing isnt't interrupted.
And yeah, from there you got it right, corn kernel; and follow their full flashing instructions.

--------------------------------------------------
* I haven't knowingly flashed GB bootloaders.
* I've been all over the link you provided... no working downloads.
Hmmm, I did try "Odin" a couple of times to get the GingerBread update...After doing that my phone now
boots to the AT&T logo, goes black for a sec and a screen like a bad tv signal comes up! Also, the phone
is now charging and showing the big battery icon! I seem to recall reading somewhere that if that happens
it may be wrong bootloaders? Can't remember exactly what it said but am I correct thinking it was one of
your own replies to another member?
Anyway, done for the night Grrrr
Thanks so much!
Here is a post with a pic about the screen u r seeing. Pixelated screen means u don't have the GB bootloaders... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33227557&postcount=2

Appreciate you taking the time to reply! The images you displayed are exactly what I am seeing..
Links aren't good forever, i realize that just hard to believe I hadn't found them ANYWHERE yet! Lol
PS ************
* Have since got GB Bootloaders and added thru Odin3 v1.70.. PDA.tar.md5
* Now able to get into recovery mode by 3-button, shows 3e recovery, have ability to install from sdcard,
wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition.
* I have an "update.zip" on there but can't remember what it's for so I didn't do it...
but still no UI coming up, just the AT&T logo which cycles ON/OFF
Am I still in the same boat... needing KK4 Odin flash, after doing that will i be able to copy
a KK4 ROM zip to my phone thru PC and flash from the phone?

KK4 is a one click Odin.
From there, you'll have to use Odin 1.85 or 1.87 to flash Corn kernel to be able to flash your way up to CM.

Hey there!
* 4-2ndtwin chimed in and said he would post when he uploaded them.
Been looking in the meantime.
* I have both Odin versions, now understand that I can use Odin to flash any file I choose, such as the Corn kernal, not just files it may come with.
* I downloaded a "Stocki897uckk4-zImage.tar, unzipping shows "zImage" file but I
haven't touched it.
Just hanging in for a working link for the Odin KK4 One-Click I guess...
Question!!!
For clarification..Odin KK4 One-Click is just bootloaders, kernal and maybe modem, right? It's not going to give me a working ROM...OR, is it ALSO an alternative way to flash a ROM when I can't add a ROM zip to my phone thru my PC to flash?
Lol... I'll get a handle on this, more of a visual type
As usual, appreciate the help!
Stock KK4 Links up.

Still browsing ROMS...
Should I be bothered rooting yet? Not sure if I'll just have to do it again after a ROM switch?
Any suggestions for a root utility?

I suggest you start with CM.
As for rooting, you can get it directly on the store now (was recently made legal). I believe it's by chainfire. But do you need it atm?
Also, all custom roms come pre-rooted.
