[Q] Validation of my XXJPU Install Procedure

Hello everyone,
I was hoping that someone would be kind enough to validate my proposed procedure for installing the XXJPU I9000 ROM (with BELL UGJK3 Modem) on my Captivate.
I've spent many many hours pouring over the Captivate and I9000 forums, but I still wanted to have someone check over my procedure before I take the plunge.
My proposed procedure is:
Use the ODIN one-click to revert back to JF6 stock for Captivate.
Download the XXJPU package and 512 PIT from samfirmware.com
Download the Bell UGJK3 modem from this thread on XDA
Dowload xcaliburinhand's 2.2.1 I9000 reoriented kernel on XDA from here. I will download the non-Voodoo version.
Extract the XXJPU package, and copy out the TAR for the XXJPU PDA.
Download ODIN 1.3.
Start ODIN.
Reference the tar file for the XXJPU PDA in the PDA section of ODIN.
Reference the 512 pit file in the PIT section of ODIN.
Reference the Bell UGJK3 Modem tar file in the PHONE section of ODIN.
Make sure Repartion checkbox is checked (because I have more than just the PDA file).
Connect Phone using USB cable.
Restart Phone in download mode (I use ADB to do this).
Click Start to flash the PDA, PIT, and PHONE (modem) to the phone.
Restart the phone. When phone is at Welcome screen disconnect phone from USB.
Close ODIN. Start ODIN.
Reference the I9000 2.2.1 reoriented kernel in the PDA section of ODIN.
Do not check repartition.
Connect the phone to the computer via USB.
Put the phone into download mode again (using ADB).
Click Start to flash the I9000 2.2.1 reoriented kernel.
When Phone reboots, everything should be working.
In addition to validating this procedure, I was curious about CSC files and if I also need to flash one of these.
Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert

this is all overly complicated.
take the modem that you want, and the kernel that you want and drop them into the clockwork flashable rom (there are a couple of them already made up on the i9000 boards). they go in the updates directory in the zip file.
i wouldnt use the odin version of jpu...i would go with a doc's custom or darky's

[Q] Updating from Android 2.2.1 to 2.3.3

Hello,
It is the first time when trying to change ROM on my galaxy s. Before I start I want to be sure I take the right steps.
First of all some info about my phone:
PDA version is I9000BUJS3
PHONE: I9000BUJS1
CSC: I9000GATLJS2
I downloaded the ROM via Check Fus Downloader from samsung:
CSC: I9000GATLJP5
Phone: I9000BUJP5
PDA: I9000BUJP7
All I need to do now is to run odin and select the .tar file in the PDA field, correct?
Code:
Procedure:
1.Open ODIN. (And close Kies, if you have it open. It is important to have ODIN open BEFORE connection the phone via USB!)
2.Select the PDA/Modem/CSC/.PIT files in Odin. (For kernel flashes, only PDA is required. For FW flashes, .PIT and at least a PDA is required. Some PDAs have Modem and CSC integrated. Make sure you have the correct .PIT file. Usually 512.pit)
3.Check the "Re-Partition" checkbox. (Only do this if you have separate packages for PDA, Modem and CSC! Don't do this for single PDA flashes or kernel flashes!)
4.Turn the phone into the download mode by pressing and holding VolumeDown+Home+Power.
5.Connect your phone with your computer and wait until the drivers are installed.
6.When the drivers are installed, click Start.
7.The phone will be flashed and once it’s finished, it will boot up. (Do NOT disconnect the usb-cable, remove the battery or otherwise interrupt this process!)
8.You have successfully flashed your phone.
My phone was sim locked when I bought it ( now is unlocked, i suppose it will stay unlocked after upgrading).
Thank you!

Be carefull to flash firmware your phone need to be sim unlocked and network unlocked.Lot of people dont check this.See the post about it.

your phone will stay unlocked
and your instructions above are fine
should that fail - you may need a 2.3 rom with all 3 files instead of the 1 .tar file

How to know for sure? And if will fail it will leave my device in an unstable state?

And another question: Does the bootloader for 2.2.1 work with 2.3 ?

I think you actually need the stock FroYo bootloader to upgrade to 2.3? I may be incorrect, don't quote me. 2.3.3 has its own bootloader I believe.

Root 2.3.3 JPJV6

Hi Im On JPJV6 Rom Any Idea How I Can Root ?
Thanks In Advance

You can use Hardcore kernel or CF-Root kernel for that
Easy steps:
- download a rooted kernel for 2.3.4 (I prefer Hardcore or CF-root)
- open Odin and check "PDA" and browse to kernel file
- put your phone in download mode and connect it to computer
- pres Start button

Install XXJVU firmware - Here
Then Install Semaphore 2.5.0 - Thread Here - Direct Link to Semaphore 2.5.0 Here
Note that XXJVU isn't the latest 2.3.6 firmware, XXJW6 is. If you wanted to install that then the procedure is essentially the same you'll just need the XXJW6 files and CF-root or semaphore kernel for XXJW6 (i'm not sure if there is a semaphore kernel for XXJW6). But running a rooted XXJVU firmware is good enough, especially if you're gonna flash a custom rom. There aren't many differences between XXJVU and XXJW6
Here's some detailed instructions on the process;
Before you flash:
1.Backup all your important files and data
2. Download the JVU stock firmware and the (Download links provided above)
3. Make sure your phone is fully charged.
4.Disable and kill the Kies process from task manager in windows on your pc. It will interupt the flashing process.
