From ICS to GB. - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I'd like to go back to a stock GB.
I've tried searching but, couldn't find anything concrete.
Now, are there any special things I should do before I flash back to a stock GB rom?
Last question,
I assume 2.3.6 is the latest GB and I looked on sammobile (here to be exact http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9000&r=1 ) but I'm unsure on which one to pick. I'm from the netherlands so I'm guessing I have to pick "I9000XWJW5 2.3.6 2012 March I9000XENJV6 Netherlands" ?
Thanks in advance.

First of all, when you change from a non-official rom to an official one the official one you will flash MUST be of three parts with re-partition checked, concerning which one to choose depends on your area of course ..

Alright, thanks.
EDIT:
I just downloaded the firmware and opened it, but it only contains 1 file called "JW5_JV6_JW4.tar". So I'm not sure what it is (PDA, MODEM etc) and I think I need those too.

you downloaded the wrong one ..... you need the one that have three parts .... you may choose the open Europe xxjvu I'm sure it is of three parts

Oh alright, will check that out. Thanks.

Looks JW5_JV6_JW4.tar is lastest valupack. Flash over XXJVU, flash similar to http://www.theandroidsoul.com/galaxy-s-gets-official-value-pack-firmware-xxjw4-includes-touchwiz-4/

[Q]How to repackage firmware files

Can anyone teach me how to repackage firmware files, Im going to reflash JPJG8 and I wish to use a different CSC file on fresh install and dont want to go through reflashing with a different CSC ( Just want a clean flash ) is this possible ?
not quite sure what you mean my friend, if your going to flash it, just use the CSC that you want ? there isnt a package file for firmware files really, you just have 3 files to flash ..

JP8 is packed into 1 file.

have you flashed anything yet?
do you means its 'packed' = 'archived' into 1 file? .rar by any chance?

Help Please

I have a Bell Galaxy S running docmod"s rom. All of a sudden my phone shut off and now will only display the white "Galaxy S GT-I9000M" screen in a continuous two second loop. I can get into download mode and have tried using odin to restore Bell's firmware but it doesn't correct the problem. I've also tried searching and haven't come across anything to help. Is there anything I can do or is it bricked?
Thanks
you need a 3 file firmware, add a 512 pit, finish with ticking the re-partition box,
job done !!
Thanks! Do you have a link to the ones I would need? Sorry, I've tried looking but I'm a newb!

[TUT] Flash baseband and ONLY baseband

This will do nothing other than changing your baseband, nothing else will change and you can do it with whatever ROM you have installed, custom or stock.
1. Get the latest ROM for your region, the simplest way to do that is to use CheckFusDownloader which you can find here: http://fus.nanzen.se/
Start the program and choose firmware, phone (GT-S5570) and region on the right side, then click check firmware on the left side, finally click download and save it to c:\baseband.
2. Get Cygwin here: http://www.cygwin.com/
Install Cygwin (you don't need to change anything if you don't want to, just let setup run it's course until it's installed) and start the Cygwin terminal.
In cygwin, type:
Code:
cd /cygdrive/c/baseband
tar -xvf [filename of your downloaded ROM] amss
tar -H ustar -c amss > MODEM_S5570.tar
For example, if the filename of the ROM you downloaded with CheckFusDownloader is S5570XWKQG_S5570XWKQ5_S5570OXFKQ6_HOME.tar.md5 then you'd type:
Code:
cd /cygdrive/c/baseband
tar -xvf S5570XWKQG_S5570XWKQ5_S5570OXFKQ6_HOME.tar.md5 amss
tar -H ustar -c amss > MODEM_S5570.tar
Once you're done with that you have a baseband file in your C:\baseband directory called MODEM_S5570.tar that you can flash as one package using Odin.
Remember that basebands are intercompatible so just pick the one that is for your region.
And no, no custom rom will care about it regardless of what they say.
Hi
this seems cool trick but to what I understand it gets the baseband out from a downloaded firmware (please correct me if wrong)
Would it be possible to just extract the basesband from the phone?
thanks
Sorry sir I don't get it
Is this just change the baseband I mean just the appearance In about phone or change the system too?

No, it will change the baseband in the phone as in replace your current baseband.
The baseband controls GSM/GPRS/G3/GPS settings which means that if you flash a ROM for another region than your own you might run into problems with all or some of those. For example, i can't remember how many posts i have read on this forum about GPS problems when people have flashed a ROM that isn't for their region.
You can use this procedure to fix that problem, just flash the baseband for your region and it will work fine on ANY ROM, custom or stock.
Basically, it's a universal fix to a problem that some people have.

Great, always good to get feedback.
TBH i mostly posted this thread because it was tiresome to repeat it, now i can just link them here.
so from as per the details above I assume we cannot extract the baseband from the phone?

Nope, you'd need the block area on the phone where it's stored and dd it.
this is for flashing basebands on roms available and if your rom isn't it's because it's old, just use the checkfusdownloader to get the most recent and you'll be fine with that.
I thought i made it all clear in the first post.

I am sure you must have made it clear, only may b I did not understand clearly, and sorry I still do not get this how to do it.
Lets say I got the brand new phone and nothing has been modified, how do I take the baseband out from the PHONE for future use in case if I need to restore the baseband in future.
So anyways, if it is possbile to get it out of the PHONE, please explain it in details how do I do it, sorry I am quite new to this thats why.
thanks my friend.

You don't, you download the latest ROM for your region with checkfusdownloader and use the rest to get whatever baseband you want INTO the phone.
If you already have the correct baseband for your region, why would you change it, if you have the wrong one, you replace it using the method in the OP.
It is possible, but i am not going to spend the time researching blocks to find it, so either you do that yourself for no reason what so ever, or you go with another amss from the same rom that you have which IS THE SAME BASEBAND.
It's not phone unique, it's unique to every region and you can find it or an updated version using the tool i referenced in the OP, if you cannot, your phone doesn't exist or at least Samsung haven't produced that phone.
I am not sure how to make this any more clear than that.

Now it is quite clear to me, thanks.
The only reason I wanted to get one out from my phone was that, the things seem quite ok with the phone so my baseband is quite ok, but in other rom (for my region) if it is an updated one and if there are some better features or removed bugs (unknown to me) then I would install it through your method. But after installing new one if I find that my old baseband was working better than this new one, I would not have chance to put the old one back. So was the reason to backup the baseband from the phone just in case new one does not work good for me.
But as you have made it understood quite clear, thanks for this, really appreciated your help.

Ok, the point of this thread was to provide the TOOL (checkfusdownloader) and the WAY(the explained extraction and compilation of one file that will work.
I still don't get why you don't just use that information.
You CAN use even old basebands found via checkfusdownloader.
If you don't get how to use it, just say so because this seems a bit... puckered with nada.
WELL done Jinxxed I will try it right now.
but i have a query, suppose that i have the suitable firmware for my device, can i just extract the csc file from the package and grab the ops file, then load and flash them via odin?

Wait, why would you flash the CSC, this tutorial is for flashing baebadn without ANYTHING else affected.
And that is what the procedure does, it just changes your baseband without chanign ganything else.
You can pretty much flash any file this way, including recovery or what have you.
So yeah, whatever firmware you want, with whatever baseband you need, this is how you do it.

To answer this as the question is in need of answer.
Yes, you can do that with any rom file in any way you wish except for the boot, img and the arm11 file, just don't mess with those.
If yo REALLY want to, i can tell you how but at that point you'll want more than one phone per person.
my bad I mean the amss file that contains baseband and related stuff
since you had gently answered that is doable via ODIN, so what about the ops file should i leave it as he is.
sorry to bother you mate, and thanks again

My wife died tonight.
YOu can use the regular way of flashing it or just electing out one part in the tass and flash it.
Now everyone will be wary of it because i made a mistake.. .it's not really a problem, you just comment out the line you won't use. i'll bet my left ball on that.
That said, i've experienced a lot lately, so bear with me if i'm slow but expect everything exactly correct.
I'm going to be offline for a while now, my wife died today.

Flash via Odin as one package with the normal ops, the same ops file that we have been using to flash stock ROMs, in Download mode as always.. now, only do this if you already have a custom ROM.. It will not wipe any data but it is recommended to do a nandroid backup just in case something goes wrong.. Check About Phone, Baseband Version to see the changes..
question
if i have 2.3.6 xwktn, can i use 2.3.6 dxkpd as my baseband? thanks.

update: seem to be. Thank you very much i just bought a used phone that had all the updates already installed and i was having a hard time finding the right version to use with odin. What is weird is that the knok was already tripped on this used phone so im sure the previous owner had already installed either a custom fw or recovery. I just wish they had left the custom stuff on the phone. -_-
On a side note is there a DOJC custom rom you guys could recommend?

I don't think there are any out yet. That said, as this pushed a new bootloader and modem reportedly, there's not much room left for additional changes in the 60mb update file.

any chance you have revision 4 of the SM-G935U firmware on oreo?
Thanks you repaired my phone !
This worked for my phone but now im getting an error with my recovery menu saying it doesn't exist. I saw an earlier post with the same problem.
I bought this phone used and now its saying that i am not the original account signed in to the phone. I took it to the 2nd hand shop i bought it from and they want to charge me money to fix the problem when i remember signing in first thing to the phone. Im not to savi with these things but did installing this firmware change my user data?
