How to downgrade XXJM6?

Seems there are some asking in the XXJM6 thread but usually it gets buried with posts specifically for flashing the FW.
I tried downgrading using different PIT files and FWs but it would fail via ODIN.
Is there a way to downgrade XXJM6 and how?
Thanks.

Are you on the first or second versions of JM6?

2nd version but came from the 1st XXJM6 leak

I think he meant JHA, and i agree.
Try to flash JHA with its PIT file and repartition and to upgrade to JJ4 from that.
Let us know if that worked.

Never tried JJ4, will give it a try then post the result.
EDIT: tried JJ4 - FAIL. Same goes with almost all the fw posted in samfirmware website. So i guess to those who flashed to JM6, we are stuck!! Good thing JM6 is a good fw. Still hoping a workaround though.

have you tried the following?
1) Factory reset via HOME + VOL UP + POWER
2) Flash PIT only first (use the P1 from SAMFIRMWARE)
3) Flash JJ4 (make sure have dbdata file inside)

Open the TAR file using WINRAR or something and see for a file called DBDATA. This file is a must after PIT programming.

Meaning after flashing PIT, flash dbdata then JJ4?

open the JJ4.TAR with WinRAR and you should see the DBDATA file inside. if it is not, find the firmware which has it..

Well i was able to downgrade from JM6 to ANY firmware, but i never used the 2nd version of JM6 nor the full flash of JJ4, i was only flashing the pda part so far.
Note that my firmware was BUJI4 when i got the tablet.

Really strange, tried also flashing only the pda but odin will immediately fail. I have flashed again with the first JM6.

I have never flashed no modem or csc or repartitioned my flash , so i guess thats why i can downgrade.

Seems like u can downgrade if you don't use repartition however it is not clear why Odin fails if we try to repartition ...

Euro Galaxy Tab can´t downgrade...
I installed the JM6 taken from the first post of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=854300
V1.7 ODIN3 flashing with files that included his pit (to repartition marked), PDA, CSC, and PHONE ...
When I tried to other ROMs have been impossible before. Consistent with ODIN errors that interrupt the process and let the tablet dead. Resusitaste flashing is only possible from the outset JM6 ...
It is an excellent ROM (fixed the Swype extrallendo and installing a ROM that came before).
Anyway, to be calmer, we expect a possible solution. Thanks.

Did you guys try one of the full newer than JJ4 firmwares from gsmpl.com ?
Those are full Odin separated pit/pda/csc/modem JJ6, JJ7 and JK2.
Look for P1000->... http://gsmpl.com/index.php?id=Do_Pobrania
No idea if it will downgrade. Just trying to help.

Yes, and NO, that doesn't work either...

As per Odin tutorial i select Pit and repartition only when i have 3 files. Can you please advice where can i get 3 files as i have one file only from samfirmware?
My I9000 is international and factory unlocked....

right well were gunna need a 3 file firmware in order to use PIT. bear with me whilst i have a look for one.

probably samfirmare.com ?

yeah just been looking on there they all seem to be 1 file

Yes samfirmware.com has 1 files only.
Are you sure if i flash with 3 files and select repartition then it will solve my problem?

install another firmware like jpjpa with 3 files and then flash xxjpy on it

Will this work?

thanks.

I found this http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/cm7-darky-9-5.1840/
U need to flash rom with odin i just dont know if "re-partition" need to be ticked and pit 512 chosen? can somone tell? also phone efs clear need to be ticked?

if I'd wanna do it, directly, i flash my phone from the top... in fact, i've had to do it some times...

Yes you can, I already did too.
Flash the phone directly with Odin:
http://www.faq4mobiles.de/forum/downloads.php?do=file&id=9026
and choose one of this firmware:
http://www.samfirmware.com/fwandroid.htm
You need be register there to download and after you find all official firmware and how you flash too.

Ok.. Thanks guys... Will try it on weekday and post the result ...

Stock .tar firmware?

i am looking for completely stock .tar files to flash through odin
i bricked my tablets and i need to revert to stock. I have the stock recovery file but i can't find a stock rom or a .pit file

You can find it here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1582943
and make sure you got the correct stock rom for your tab version.
Installation guide is there too.
also when using odin, make sure KIES is not running on tray
(for windows: [ctrl + alt + del] > Processes tab > terminate KiesTrayAgent.exe)

it doesn't have the US model listed

It doesn't really matter,As long as it has english language.
Because you're only going to use it to get the recovery back working to flash another rom.
Just grab the latest firmware for the 8.9 wifi only model, P7310XWKI2

one last question? any idea where i can get the .pit file?

There isn't a need in using .pit file.
and i don't know where to get it.
The *.tar.md5 file you found after unzipping it will just do.
load is to the PDA in odin3.

with odin you can flash both .tar and .tar.md5 while selecting the package just select .tar.md5 if your odin cant do it then get a new version

as long as you dont need root stay on stock or you can flash a rooted one and then unroot it. you will brick it if you get the wrong package. follow the instructions and proceed. nothing will happen.

A file.MD5 is a checksume. It is needed to check file integrity.
