Hi All,
I recently bought a i9000 galaxy s from Turkey, phone doesn't have the market app by default. I want to make the minimum changes to my phone so that I can access the android market. I looked through the previous posts but I am lost. Hopefully someone can point to the right direction.
Here is the version info:
pda i9000jvjh1
phone i9000jxjg2
csc i9000trcji1
Here is what I attempted so far:
- I can access recovery/download modes.
- Rooted the phone. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=739304)
- Running system/app/Vending.apk gives a parse error.
- Installed the market-enabler app
- Found a vending.apk on another website and copied it to the sd-card, I was able to install it but when I try to download an app it says: "The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly, please try again." Also when I look at the downloads tap of the market I see that things are stuck at "starting download..".
What should I do next? There is an update to Froyo available on Kies for my device, but I learnt that update doesn't have the market app either.
P.S.: I am on a Mac and have limited access to windows.
Thanks a lot.

Is this the correct section of the forum for this kind of question or should I repost somewhere else? Thanks.
Why dont you flash a whole new firmware, it comes included, you will also be stock and have no unnecessary modifications
~Webstar1
I have been working on this issue for the past couple days but couldn't resolve it. It seems like flashing to a new firmware is the way to go. I wondering if flashing would void any warranties? Also how do I decide which firmware to use? I'd appreciate if someone could suggest a firmware. Thanks a lot.

Hey samsunghgt,
Have you found a solution for the market issue? Did you flash a new firmware? If so, whiich one did you flash ? And is it working well?
hello
Ok on my galaxy I9000 gt i have some problems when i plug in kies and want to update it says Name:GT-I9000
Curent version: PDA:JM1 / Phone:LM1 / CSC:KM1
And then: This divice version can not be updated.
A couple of days a go it allways said taht i ahve the newest 1 , now they give me this. I`m a noob when it comes to this so can some1 please help me?
My second problem is that after i installed allot of things on the phone ..games etc.. the latest thing it was "Igo my way" if i close the phone and open it again it stays allot with that "s" on the screen and does nothing, then the media scaner takes ages to scan, then the phone works in frames sometimes and sometimes really fast, sometimes i loose signal too,..any1 know what can be the problem ? But the moust important part is how to fix the update problem cuz that is gone fix it i think. and if i have to do it manualy how do i do it and witch version to install? please be patiance with the explinations , i`m really new to android. ty
bump, thx in advance for your help
Did you flash jm1 through odin or something? If you flash an unofficial firmware, that's what kies will tell you. If you want to be able to use kies to upgrade, you probably need to flash back to a stock firmware

You can set static IP with the built-in Settings app(Wireless & networks, Wi-Fi
settings, menu key, Advanced).
Use this application.

thanks for this answer , but i'm still wondering why before installing cmw , my wifi was working flawlessly , and now i'll have to install this?!
and also what about this damn cmw that's here and still not working, is there a mean to remove it?!
This is common issue after CF root, and occurs due to binaries
Install busybox, open busybox and install binaries inside busybox application, once successfull installation it shud work
Otherwise
Flash stock kernel - wifi will strat working again
then root - install busybox - install binaries, then flash CF root kernel.
thanks doc for your answer ,after reading it, i'm willing to flash the stock kernel , at least it'll remove me this Cmw, but i must confess that this operation scare me , heard a lot about the brick issues with the xxlpy kernel , so i need some advices :
1 - i've downloaded the rom but it's a no wipe one , will it remove the cmw and the super SU?! otherwise how should i do to remove it?!
2 - what are the risks and what should i do to avoid them
3 - if u cand send me some links about how to flash this rom and how to remove all from my phone i would be greatly grateful to you
thanks a lot for your answer and have a nice day
Which ROM you are using?
yes non wipe ROM also remove it, but m thinking just flash kernel not full ROM
thank you doc you're my savior , i've downloaded the N7000XXLPY_N7000OXALPY_N7000XXLPT_HOME.tar.md5
so i was willing to install it , and where can i find the kernel ? it it better to use the kernel only or does this one ok also , btw i've deleted all on my phone so i don't mind
also other problem - as if the actual one isn't sufficient --, i'm trying to install the usb driver for my computer but can't install them , kies is on my computer but still not detecting my phone , any idea about it
thanks a lot for your help i'm attached to my keyboard waiting for your answer
Oh you hav already download then just flash downloaded rom with.pc odin(with pda tab)
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
the problem is that my computer won't recognise my galaxy note even after installing kies / drivers , is there a solution to this ? what should i do i order to use odin and flash this md5?!
i' m begining to be mad !!!!
thanks doc i'm waiting impatiently for your help!!!!
Wifi Probs after rooting Note
Hello
I am having the same issues after rooting my Note.
Basically I'm using the UK ICS 4.0.3 Rom from Sammobile - N7000XXLQ2_N7000XXLPT_N7000XEULP4
FRESH ROM INSTALL UNROOTED - NO APPS ADDED
Checked that wifi picked up signal and worked ok
Checked that data connection picked up signal and worked ok
Checked phone was registered on network and seemed to be ok
Pretty fast by all accounts !
*****************************************************************************************************************************************************************
However...
NOW ROOTED - using CF-Root - SGN_XX_XEU_LQ2 - v5.6
APPS ADDED FROM PREVIOUS CWM 4.0.3 BACKUP IMAGE
YellowTriangle Away V 1.70 used to clear counts etc
Checked that wifi picked up signal and doesn't work
Checked that data connection picked up signal and works ok occasionally
Checked phone was registered on network and seems hit and miss - registered one minute then not the next - unable to make calls - have to keep searching for networks manually - turning phone on / off / battery in / out !
Followed the advice from the from the post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29554858#post29554858 - regarding 'SPEEDMOD K3-11'
****************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Now when I open CWM manager app, I get the message "This version of CWM manager should be used with CF-Root v5.0 or newer. It appears you are running a different kernel.Various features have been disabled"
Also still - NO WIFI !
Just seems a bit odd ??
Don't know about you, but I'm wondering what else isn't working properly and is it actually worth rooting at all ??

Uninstall kies
Install only drivers
And change usb port
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
as i said before , wifi is working - hope so - since i can see the networks available around , the only problem is that it's continuously try to get ip and log in ,
now i'm worried about that damn usb that won't recognize my phone , and let me use odin to reinstall my system
if anyone has an idea i would gladly listen
thanks everybody
is there any mean to install the firmware i've downloaded without using odin?!
thanks for your answers
don't be panic and your issue is not serious.
you can use Mobile odin if you having root. if your root is working then try flashing kernel with mobile odin
Still NO Wifi - After UK ICS 4.0.4 Upgrade!
Downloaded ICS 4.0.4 from 'checkfus downloader' today
Product Code: GT-N7000ZBAXEU
Latest firmware: N7000XXLRK/N7000XEULP5/N7000XXLRK/N7000XXLRK
Modified: 24/07/2012 11:17:01
Filename: GT-N7000_XEU_1_20120724111617_83hlhgn7j9.zip.enc2
Installed using ODIN - rebooted, checked 'About Phone' - Version 4.0.4
However I have since rooted it using the CF-Root-SGN_XX_XEU_LQ2-v5.6-CWM5
Yellow Triangle 1.70 - worked and cleared the counts etc
Installed binaries via 'busybox'
(Haven't reinstalled - 'Speedmod K3-11')
and it still suffers the same 'NO WIFI CONNECTION' problem I had with ROOTED 4.0.3 ics with apps I'd installed via a CWM backup rom image
Any tips on how to get wifi to connect would be helpful - cheers
thaank you dr.ketan the word u've sent me relieved me because , indeed i'm panicked rofl - btw the fact of finding the right words to comfort people....mm are u a real doctor? -
i'm hoping truly that your words are the reality and not only to reassure me hhhhhh
right now i'm copying the md5 and the odin mobile pro 2.45 on the micro card , cross fingers and wish me good luck guys
right now i've installled mobile odin pro on my phone , but the problem is that it's sticked to the loading screen where it' says that it's checking super user support , and i have some msg from time to time at the bottom of the screen saying that mobile odin pro has been granted super user autorisation for interactive shell but still waiting so i'm begining to wonder if the root is alright , and so i'm asking
can i re - root my phone using the cmw zip and the busybox zip on an already rooted device?! if yes i'll do it right now
thanks for your help i'm waiting for your answer doc
It seems you have partially rooted device.
And that is the reason wifi is not working, i am saying this since long, i fear you won't brick device just for small issue.
Still i am saying once see there is enough space on system ROM? (check it with overview page of Titanium), i think in partial root titanium still works, as it uses own binary. if no 15MB spcace remove some non harmfull app e.g. arura live wall paper, youtube,Goggle+ this can be installed later.
After this again install busybox
open busybox and install from inside busybox
you should see msg 'succesfully installed'
then open superSU, if asked update binary too.
then try wifi shud work,
PS : yes I M ENT surgeon
glad to see that u're doctor too - i'm doctor in anesthesia reanimation , and we have good contact with surgeons since they're all the time funny - glad to see that u told me that my problem is a small issue and it won't brick my device , so i'm feeling a little more relieved , but still have to solve the problem
and there's some questions :
1 - when opening super SU i have this msg : the su binary needs to be updated , continue? how can i update them since wifi won't work? is there some specific files that i can update by the memory card?!
2 - i have a full unroot button in the super su settings , would it be a good idea to fully unroot the device to re root it after with the busybox?!
i'm on my way to download and install titanium i'll tell you about space on system rom once i'm done
thanks a lot again doc

chech settings of dialer - somewhere there'll be which contacts are shown
you could try wiping your dalvic and cache just and reflash the rom if you dont get any other solution
Thanks a lot. I reflashed ROM and now the problem seems solved. But issue now is that it is taking time to connect to 3g netwrok and I need to struggle a lot a connect( switch on/off airplane mode, installed 3g manager, reset settings). Is there any solution for this
Thanks
