Roms from here vs Vibrant forum? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There is this forum and and a different one for Samsung Vibrant. I thought this is also a vibrant?
Can ROMs from the vibrant forum be flashed on a bell i9000m?

For whatever reason the box says Vibrant, but the Bell version is actually an i9000m.
And no, you cannot flash Vibrant firmware onto an i9000m, or the other way around.

Whats the difference between my Galaxy S I9000M Canadian and USA Galaxy S I9000 .

There's no such thing as USA I9000, the I9000 is from UK not USA
I9000 runs on 3G 900/1900/2100
I9000M runs on 3G 850/1900/2100
That's then only difference

Well, we ASSUME that's the only difference, but I doubt anyone has done enough research.
In the future though, we have no way of knowing that the ROM's will remain compatible. My suggestion is to continue using the firmware DESIGNED for your phone

SGS - Rogers version

The samsung galaxy S for rogers... is there froyo on it yet, OFFICIALLY?
How is it different from the bell galaxy S?
No
It's the Galaxy S Captivate where this forum is for the I9000 series which includes the I9000m by Bell.

whats the difference?

ive been wondering what is the difference between the i9000 and the i9000, im guessing the i9000 is the unlocked version, will anything that works with the i9000 do the same for the i9000M?
the i9000M is bell version canada (i think)
same phone, same features, BUT always double check if your are going to flash an i9000 rom/theme onto an i9000M
(i think thats the only difference, i only own the i9000, so someone correct me if ive missed something huge out)

[Q] Just asking

Heey guys,
I have a armani i9010 here in the netherlands.
Can I put a rom from the captivate on this one.
The phone looks the same.
Any help is appreciated.
Should work... There is a ROM called andromeda that built on Armani firmware, if that works on "regular" captivates, I897 firmware should work for you....Idk about any Odin packages to get to your stock firmware though.

Thanks for the reply.
I look into that.

[Q] S I9000 to S I9000M

I would like to convert my Galaxy S I9000 to a Galaxy S I9000M (Vibrant) Canadian.
I would appreciate it if someone could help with the rooting and tell me the name of the firmwares I need to use such as the
Kernal, Rom, etc.
Thank You.
So just to clarify (because I'm a bit confused) you want to convert one device to another? The only safest thing you can do is change build.prop, and that's only going to change how the device displays. If you want to flash a Vibrant rom onto the I9000, that's a no go because that can screw up the device.

Any reasoin why you want to make the change
Hi,
My phone used to be a i9000m.
In order to use all the custom roms, I had to convert it to a i9000.
The only thing that carries over every time I flash a new rom is the modem.
You need to use the "KG3" because I think it has something to do with the frequencies that are used by the i9000m.
So, maybe your i9000 modem may not use the same frequencies? I'm guessing, not knowing.
i9000 was wonderful, why change?

Thank You for your replies.
I am trying to learn about the Android system.
I would like to convert my Galaxy S I9000 to run on the Bell System in Canada
and I figured I need to convert to something like the Galaxy S I9000M (Vibrant) Canadian firmware.
I would like to have an i9000 working with (Bell) Canadian firmware.
I would like to wipe/re-program the phone to a factory firmware and install a firmware that will work in Canada.
The same process you do when you format your PC's harddrive.
I would like to root/clean my i9000 and re-program it with updated firmwares, giving me an i9000 Canadian Phone .
If this is possible, I need to know the names of the Rom, kernel, etc. for Canada, I could use to do this.
Thank You.
Factory Firmware you can get from here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/
I have the GT-I9000M_I9000UGKC1_BMCKC1.zip from sammobile
Thank You

Since you have your phone working in Canada would you be so kind and share with me,
the firmware you installed to do this and
how You installed it.
Also do you have a link for this "KG3" rom/kernal file?
Thank You.
