[Q] best GB or ICS rom which is networked unlocked - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i have got a samsung captivate with this official rom "i897uckk4 Odin One Click CONTAINS Bootloaders, Re-partition, Full Wipe" instaled on it today.....
it contains all latest boot loader kernals etc.....
but it is country lock ... it seems to need a sim network unlock pin....
please let me know a good & a stable gb or ics rom for my device which should be network unlocked.....
my device details are
model: samsung sgh-I897
firmware version: 2.3.5
baseband version: I897UCKK4
kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I897UCKK4-CL614489
build number: gingerbread.uckk4

You unlock the phone when on stock, roms themselves are not locked or unlocked.
Search the market for the app "galaxy_s unlock" and use it after rooting. The flash custom. It is hard to unlock on icS rom, must manually hex edit file... Ew.

[Q] Custom Rom back to Samsung Stock? (Without having a Backup)

Hi,
I have had different Custom Roms on my Samsung Galaxy s i9000!!
Now I have the ultimate rom on it but I want to go back to the samsung Stock rom, because I want to sell my phone!!!
But how can I get back to my Stock????
I dont have any backup!!!
Any idea or help?
Thanks
no need any backup, if you remember the build number of the rom then you can download it at samfirmware.com all SGS roms are there for download
or just tell me the build number and will give you the link
sample for build number : DXJG4 or XXJPM or ....
I don`t remeber the build number...I just know that it was andorid 2.2.1!!
Do you have any instruction how I get the stock installed on my phone? Is it the the same way like wit the custom roms or an other?
these are not custom roms they are stock rom, you can flash them by Odin go to samfirmware.com and choose your rom base on the area you live (there is a guide for decoding the build number for the locale and language) you can find tutorial for odin in xda forum
Any hint which Firmeware I should take?
2.2.1?
2.3.3?
2.3.3 is Beta .

When I have the stock rom back on my phone, can I use Kies again or do I have to unroot it?
Kies will probably be unable to match the stock rom with network providers firmware . In which case you need to spoof the firmware update .
http://www.appbrain.com/app/spooffw/com.johnan.spooffw
Kies upgrades firmware from product code firmware id and hardware ID
EG PC xxxxx O2UK Firmware xxxx O2UK Hardware XXX O2UK
Your firmware will code will not match .

[Q] Unlocking Firmware FROYO 2.2 ?

I have a i897 Captivate Firmware 2.2 Kernel 2.6.32.9 Build FROYO,UCKB1
Updated to this build with Kies Mini. Everything is stock on this phone.
I was searching the nv_dat.bin file looking for the string where the unlock code should be & all I see is imei (eight times), X2.
I heard with this build the lock codes have been hidden. How do I go about unlocking if that be the case? Is it still possible to do so?
Thanks

i need stock rom n7000ubkk1

I need help. I need to restore my cell to stock rom for warranty purposes. My phone was originally flashed:
Baseband version: N7000UBKK1
- Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-N7000UBKK2-CL705203
I need to revert my phone to the original rom. I was able to download (rapidshare) n7000ubkk1 but it only came as tar format and when I flashed it with odin, my phone was stuck on a boot loop: samsung logo and blue space startup.
Before doing that, I did flash a stock rom through odin: N7000ZSKK1 (hong kong) which came in 3 files, modem, csc and code. I think this has changed the radio on my cell. My cell is bought from claro phone company in Dominican republic but the original rom came with brazillian version n7000ubkk1.
please send me a link to download the Baseband version: N7000UBKK1
- Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-N7000UBKK2-CL705203 so I can restore my cell through odin. thanks.

If you need the warranty so as to send it in to Samsung for your boot loop, you can just download the latest firmware and then re-flash it with odin. Most of the time this works. No harm giving it a try first. Anyway, you can find the collection of firmwares at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 if you really need to get it back to stock. Actually all stock firmwares should not void your warranty if i'm not mistaken.
I have the same phone with the
Baseband version: N7000UBKK1
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-N7000UBKK2-CL705203
cant find that original stock rom!!
did you find it???

mae yo tengo uno con esa version y nunca me ha llegado ninguna actualizacion.. a ud le ha llegado alguna?
I have a N7000 with UBBK1
Looked up my phone's Baseband and found this forum.
If someone still needs this stock ROM, I'm happy to help.
Unfortunately, I'm as noob as they come, so I would need step by step instructions to extract the image and then I would gladly post it online.
Try this link here for stock UBKK ROM:

Worked for me every single time when I was on Gingerbread trying out several Galaxy Notes (had to keep returning them because the dreaded screen tint changing problem).

You are a gentleman and a scholar, my hat is off to you.
Also, impatient as I am, I'm now flashing using the step-by-step instructions in your other post.
