Your phone will not get unlocked if you flash any other ROM.

But i mean to flash a ROM by odin (with other baseband); NO to flash a rom by CWM

Won't work. Flashing ROM's (either through CWM or Odin) does not remove the simlock.

Nope. No way you could network unlock a phone by changing the Os or the firmware. If you want to unlock it you could do this via GSM ,well as far as I know. So no and don't search anymore I have and many before me but we all got the same simple disgusting answer >>>no<<<

Dowgrading official firmwares?

Hi,
I would just like to ask if it is possible to flash from a newer firmware back to an older one via Odin?
For example: My phone is on official JVS, can I downgrade it back to JVR/JVQ?
Is it possible to flash back from JVR to JVQ? I was thinking because they use the same CSC.
Thanks!
Yes u can downgrade....find firmware at www.samfirmware.com and u can flash any firmware any time.

Follow this and make sure repartition is checked in Odin so you can wipe the phone before installing the fw.
But ya you can go from Froyo to GB and back whenever you want on the SGS...

Thanks for the replies. Anyone else can confirm that downgrading official firmwares is possible? Just want to make 100% sure before I do.
Thanks in advance.

If you do it using Odin there is no problem. did that a few times.
My dear yes it is possible to any firmware at any time

I've upgraded and downgraded ROMs, custom and stock, using clockworkmod recovery.
The first root I did on my phone I used Odin, but the flash came with clockworkmod built in, so never needed to use Odin again.
I feel much more at ease using the recovery mode than through Odin for many reasons, but that's just my opinion, I'm sure it works fine if you follow all the steps.

If your new firmware is Stock firmware(released by samsung), you can flash with Odin(dont select reset partition in odin)
OR you can connect to Kies n update it.
OR Go to setting - about phone - software update, check if update available OTA, if available, you will get notice n update from there(easiest n fastest way)
Hello.
One week ago,I was forced to flash custom ROM,cause something goes wrong and I didn't have backup. However,I want back the stock ROM. Where can I download it? I don't want to install Kies to my laptop,because normally I don't need it. I am able to flash the ROM using CWM.

[Q] [Question] How to Flash Stock ROM without ODIN

Hi,
I have the following problem:
I have a S5830L which I've downloaded the Samsung Unbranded Stock ROM GB 2.3.6 for this phone.
The problem is that when I put it on Download mode ODIN detects it BUT when I click on start it stops on "SetupConnection" and after 10 min it shows fail.
The phone is running fine, but It has the carriers ROM and with version 2.3.4, with CWM
How can I flash it via ODIN or another method?
I cannot figure out...
Thanks!
There's a thing called mobile Odin. Not sure if it works for your device but you can use the search option here to find out more...

you say it already has CWM, just use CWM to flash StockLite ROM almost similar with STOCK ROM

samsung i9000 branded Movistar Spain rooting and using with italian sim

hello all, i'm sorry but i am newbie in this world ... then , i had given to me by a spanish friend a samsung I9000 branded Movistar....this smartphone installed android 2.2 (froyo? ) and kernel 2.6.32.9 [email protected]#1 and version I9000XXJPK. then my friend when he moved to italy (i don't know what he did) he use this smartphone with a sim H3G (Italia)...... i checked if it is alredy rooting but titanium backup indicates that do not have the permission of superuser. Now can i install a new rom (updated) and if i do, which rom can i install????? sorry if i said wrong things but i have read many guides but i did not understand anythin
in recovery mode there is written andorid system recovery 3e.
pda: I9000BGJP3
PHONE: I9000XXJPK
CSC: I9000XECJP2
BUOLD INFO: 2010. 11
p.s.: sometimes the phone have some errors : Home appliocation (process com.sec..android.app.twlauncher) was suddently arrested ...... and i reboot smartphone..... and another error tells me that removed the internal memory (and i still restart)
upgrade rom solves these errors????
thanks a lot all
(sorry for my english)
Hey,
Yeah, upgrading even to a 2.3.6 version should solve those probles, but JB is also pretty stable
For starters, if your phone is an I9000, then I think you should be able to flash in any 2.3.6 rom for the I9000 to root... But I'm not sure about this, mine hasn't been branded so someone else might be able to give a bit more info on whether its safe.

Yeah, you should be able to (I don't think it'll cause any problems), and your sim should work fine with an Italian 2.3.6 rom. PM me at some point if you want instructions
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk HD
Yes should work. Never had 2.2 on my galaxy. Use Odin to flash a new stock firmware. Search for your country so you get your APN settings. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-I9000&pcode=-1#firmware
Here is a guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1259240
Or you try it with Samsung Kies
