Thanks.
afaik there's no rooted kernel for this rom.
you can try that, anyway.
1 - google for "odin" and download it on your pc. or take this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464775
2 - similarly, install samsung kies (so you have samsung drivers)
3 - download semaphore_2.7.4_sc.tar kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112908
4 - download original kernel from ramad's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881
4 - turn off your phone, that press power+volume_down+home until you enter download mode (yellow pic on screen)
5 - run odin.exe (as administrator in win7). make sure kies is not running on your pc before running odin.
6 - connect your phone to pc via usb
7 - in odin select as "pda" the semaphore kernel. leave all options as defaults. execute it. this is done in a few seconds. this way you are rooting you phone (aka adding busybox) and installing superuser.apk
8 - unplug usb.
9 - let the phone reboot. then turn it off back again, and get once again in download mode (power+volume_down+home).
10 - run odin.exe (as administrator in win7)
11- connect phone to pc via usb
12 - in odin select ramad's jvb kernel as "pda". execute.
13 - start phone, to be sure reinstall superuser from google play
14 - you're done, now you are rooted with original jvb kernel.
I do not know if this is a robust procedure, but it worked for my italian jw7 rom, hope it is ok for you too.
after gaining root privileges, you can remove semaphore.apk from /system/app with root explorer (download from google play)
Do u think it ll work

since your phone is not rooted you have to use odin anyway.
"superoneclick" methods do not work with sgs1.
hence, you have to flash a pre-rooted kernel to gain root permissions.
after that you can flash the original kernel thus restoring the original state of the phone, apart from rooting it. you don't lose any data or setting, by the way.
since it looks like you're a cautious guy, I suggest you to study a little bit more thru the forum to understand how flashing kernels with odin works.
you can start by downloading odin, kies, and both kernels, and the whole original rom (you can find that in ramad's thread as well). Ramad's thread explains exactly how to flash with odin, btw.
I'm glad to help, but I'm not taking any responsibility on your behalf. do it at your own risk.
thanks broo ..

hey i followed d way u said n it worked smoothly .. thanks a loy bro .. and now u can u tell me how to go for a custom rom and upgrade my handset to ICS is it possible or do i need to make any more chnges to my handset .. lemme no asap .. thans in advance ..
I thought you wanted to root the phone for basic mods and removing samsung bloatware, not for flashing a custom rom. That's another matter.
if you want to flash a custom rom you need cwm recovery. this is a tool you get in "recovery mode", turn phone off and then power+volume_up+home to get there. some gingerbread custom roms can be flashed with odin, but as far as I know, you can't for ics or jb.
stock recovery won't let you flash any rom.
you do not have cwm recovery on your stock kernel.
to root any custom rom, you have to flash semaphore back again, and stick with that. with semaphore you have cwm recovery, so choose the rom you want to install and follow its thread instructions.
BUT: I've tried LOADS of custom roms, and never been fully satisfied with anyone of them. reboots, phone turns off by itself, limited functionalities, small bugs...
always reverted back to (rooted) stock. I'm never ever going to flash any rom but a stock one anymore. Of course you'll find different opinions on that on xda, this is just my 2 cents.
Lastest stock roms (2.3.6) are fast, smooth and completely bugfree.
Thanks in advance
hey thnks in advance but one of my frns has rooted to ics n he is telling tat phone works smoothly only for video recording and another one app .. rest works fine for him
anything for ram space .. i just have 364 mb ram wich gets almost full quite aftr using d net or running any apps .. pls suggest me any app or anythin wich i can do to increase my ram storage and other things ..

search threads for himem kernels. you'll find many of them. you'll probably get another 20 or 30mb. but I'm not going to suggest something I've never tried. current ram to me is more than enough.
regarding ics being faster and smoother, that's a matter of debate. my opinion is that the fastest rom around is cm7.2 (gingerbread), much faster than any ics rom. much more. At least among those I've tried.
the whole point about custom aosp roms is that samsung never released source code on some drivers, hence the little bugs here and there in cm7/9, ics, jb, and so on. that's why stock roms are superior, imho.
if you really want ics, move to sgsII or sgsIII

ok, I wrote this for a Samsung M110S, What and How to Root so instead of the files mentioned, use the correct ones as given earlier or what you have already mentioned
you are going to do the same procedure but use the i9000 files
Files Needed:-
1. odin3
2. rooting kernel
Lets start :-
1- Download odin3 and one kernel file as given above that you wish to use
2- Unplug any USB device attached to your Computer and shut down kies (if running)
3- Power off the phone.
4- Press and hold Home button with Power button. your phone will go into [Download Mode]
5- run Odin in your PC
6- connect phone in download mode with computer using USB cable [ Odin will detect] and Com port will turn Yellow color
7- Check the PDA radio button and browse for file the kernel of your choice that you have downloaded earlier, than click open
8- Press start button. Odin will start flashing and comport button will turn Green and it will inform you to remove USB connection
9- Phone will reboot and you got your phone rooted

Thanks a ton...going ahead...will let you know in sometime...
just to add to the earlier post, just in case you have never entered download mode before
For i9000 :- you hold the Volume Down + Home + Power
Note:
When using Odin to Flash, Open task manager and close these : Kies.exe , KiesTrayAgent.exe, and KiesPDLR.exe

yes, enable USB debugging and restart ODin3, always restart after any flash or problem
Odin v3 will turn blue, not yellow

Hi team!
Im new to this, may i ask..
Am i able to go from stock 2.1 straight to 2.3.3 by following this guide....
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-install-xxjvo-android-2-3-3-gingerbread-rom-on-your-galaxy-s/
Or will i encounter problems? do i need to go to 2.2 first?
Has anyone got the skills to give me some answers? if so thanks!
I didn't look at that guide in particular, it's like when someone does your homework for you... but it is possible to go straight to 2.3.. If your worried just go to 2.2 first...
that is all
Yeah, sure! With Odin, you can goo from any version to any version back and forth - a lot of people even use stock 2.1 to get a clean install before flashing something new, so don't worry. Just use a stock JVO version with bootloaders (there should be "Sbl" in the name of the PDA file). I alway flash stock ROMs with pit file and checked repartition - just 1) get in Odin and mount PDA (with bootloaders), Phone and CSC,also mount the pit file and check repartition, 2) turn off you phone and after that get in Download mode (Volume up+menu button+Power button), 3) connect the phone to your pc and hit start button in odin
Do not forget to take out sim card and memory card before flashing

To TS:-
I just brought Galaxy S with 2.2 Froyo , try to read in XDA forum and it help me a lot , you may refer to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846913 download stock firmware 2.3.3
Instrcution on ODin1.3
1.take out all the sim card n memory card , turn off your phone and had USB cable on you pc/laptop without the KIES program running as well.
2.Double click to extract I9000XXJVO<--Example
3.Open ODIN. (And close Kies, if you have it open. It is important to have ODIN open BEFORE connection the phone via USB!)
4.Select the PDA,pit,Modem,CSC file in Odin.
5.Turn the phone into the download mode by pressing and holding VolumeDown+Home+Power.
6.Connect your phone with your computer and wait until the drivers are installed.
7.When the drivers are installed, click Start.
8.The phone will be flashed and once it’s finished, it will boot up. (Do NOT disconnect the usb-cable, remove the battery or otherwise interrupt this process!)
9.You have successfully flashed your phone.
hope this helps

I have update my Samsung Galaxy note n7000 from GB to ICS from phone not from KIES but right after update i can't access play store or any google services. I have factory restore my phone from both the option and 3 buttons restore from recovery. Now when i try to add google account its says can't establish network connection. I have tried to add account from Youtube but no success.
My current version is ICS 4.0.3
PDA:N7000xxlpy
Phone: N7000xxlpt
Csc: n7000oxxlp5
I am unable to log inn any of the account like facebook, youtube or chat, Even if i download the .apk from any other source its downloaded but its does not fetch download the from Internet.
I have checked the phone on many different router there is no problem in wifi connectivity.
While searching on google XXLPY is the culprit here and its the bad update which i got from the OTA now what to do next, i have reset my phone two or three time but all in vain or may be i am lucky that i don't get my device bricked
Dont reset while u r in ICS,for google account try to us ur data connection not ur wifi for adding account, it may work..

HALT!
You're on ICS - Stop messing about with Factory Resets / Recovery etc..
Downgrade to Stock GB via ODIN - Do your wipes - Make sure it's working in GB - Update to ICS / Flash a Stock ICS in ODIN..
Mobile network is not working too, can any one tell me how to downgrade it or is it safe to flash it with another kernel ??
Goto the stock ROM thread and follow Dr. K'S instructions... It's all there, if you need any further help let me know...

yes many time i have used it on my Galaxy Ace but that was low end phone and i don't want to mess with this phone. Its all just because of OTA update from Samsung
My question is that should i have to flashed it with Gb first if yes then which region is safe to flash it with.
P.S i have ask a friend who has flashed it from ICS to ICS of different firmware by using abssyynote kernel :S
This is what my friend told me to do is it safe ?? or can be done in this way ??
i dont need to tell you that you have to be very careful in following these steps,
although i have tried them 5 times on 5 different notes successfully still mistakes can be dangerous so be careful and follow them to the letter and take your time to read before you start
also if you can do this with a laptop its better than a pc because if the electricity cut out it could mess up the phone. its safer to have a battery, btw just as i finished this line we had a black out here lol electricity cut off for the whole block
copy AbyssNotekernel42.zip and CWM.zip to the phone
power off the phone and take the battery out to make sure its off
power it back on holding volume up + home + power to go to recovery mode
choose install zip from sdcard
select the CWM.zip and choose yes install
you will get clock work mode interface then choose install update zip from sdcard again
select AbyssNotekernel42.zip and install it
power off and remove the battery and put it back
power on holding volume up + home + power to go to recovery mode again
this time it the abyss kernel recovery and it works with the touch screen
it is safe to do a factory reset from here so do it
then power off and remove the battery again and put it in
this time power on the phone with volume down + home + power to go to download mode
start Odin on the pc then connect the phone in download mode
click on PDA and then select the rom XXLPD file "N7000JPLPD_N7000OJPLP7_N7000XXLPT_HOME.tar.md5" and click start
when the phone restarts make sure the samsung logo apears then remove the battery so that it doesnt boot up
start the phone again in download mode volume down + home + power
select the speedmod kernel file and flash it to the phone same way you flashed the rom in PDA select "speedmod-kernel-n7000-ics-k3-11-Odin.tar" then click start
when the phone restarts again remove the battery after the samsung logo apears
power on the phone into recovery again for the last factory reset volume up + home + power
do the factory reset and reboot the phone
There are a few steps missing there. I would go to the link I posted above.
First download Odin 1.85 from link A. 1
Next download pre rooted GB from A.8 and flash it using Odin under pda
Then down load lpy open German 4.0.3 which you want from B.1 and flash in PDA using Odin.
That's it your done!
You comfortable with that?

Flash a downgrade ROM or GB rescue kit from My Android solutions, link below using Odin
Signup at http://samfirmware.com/, type "i9000" in the search field, choose the newest ROM released for you country/carrier, download it, flash it...
if u get the files, click here and download Odin v1.85 !
*Make sure Kies is not opened (Task manager > close anything named "Kies") / Battery is more than 80% / don't disconnect until the process is finished !
Open Odin, place the files like this: PDA (choose Code...) / PHONE (Modem...) / CSC (Phone...) and if there's a .PIT file you will see it (it's something like 512.pit). Then get the phone in Download Mode: Vol. Down + Home + Power, connect to pc and wait until appears in Odin. If nothing appears, you will need the Drivers. If appears, make sure repartition is unticked, and others two are ticked. Press START and don't disconnect until the phone restarts.
Done.
P.S.: That worked for me

Depends on which ROM did you put onto the device. I recall if you're trying to go back from CM9 you're going to have to do the 3 files combo via ODIN.

Use the upd_1.zip method. First, download the zip file from the attachments. Then, follow these steps:
1. Download the upd_1.zip file
2. Copy it into the root directory of your sdcard
3. Reboot your phone into recovery mode by pressing and holding Home + Power buttons
4. From recovery, select update from sdcard with the vol keys and the home button (to select)
5. Wait for the process to finish (takes about 5 seconds)
6. Reboot your phone and you would find a skull icon in your drawer which is named superuser. Your phone is rooted

thanks thow
thanks alot for the answer but it infortunately didn't work ... its always the problem of upgrading from.froyo to gingerbread, i followed all the steps and i waited but the odin (once again) didnt do the job
i really dont know how to behave with this phone ... its a kind of noway to change anything in its system
If U R using FROYO then remove sim/sdcard, & factory reset ur phone. Install mobile drivers on pc. Use superoneclick. It's more effective for FROYO OS. If superoneclick doesn't run on ur pc, try its latest version & try another pc.

Hi guys.I recently got my first Android phone.It's Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000.I like look,speed is good,it is not lag.I play Subway surfers and Temple Run 2 without lag.Internet is fast,everything works well,but first week of using it,I noticed battery drain.First time it was over the night and I was so confused because everything was closed in Task Menager.That was Gingerbread 2.3.3.I searched forums and I did everything it's possible.Turn off all for sure:wii-fi,network data,sync,set screen on lowest,turned of GPS,bluetoot,live wallpapers,automatic updates,vibrate,animations,everything possible and drain was still there.I was sad.I searched forums 2 weeks and again nothing.Then I found one solution:Reeboting phone after charging and after long playing games.That realy works but it's stupid to do that every day.Then I found that I should update firmware.I wanted to be originall and official so I downloaded Kies and installed new and latest update for my phone.It's Gingerbread 2.3.4.First day it was fine beside internet and games still drained battery a lot but after charging it was all good.There wasnt big Os drain.Just 3-4%.I was happy until other day after charging I went to sleep.Battery droped to 51%.I was so frustrated.Next time after charging it was good again but next time not.I'm sure I closed every app.My phone isn't rooted and I don't wanted to be till yesterday when I saw that you can choose which apps will be open.I am still not sure about if.SNS is always open and I never use it.I hate this bug on gb.I cant believe its last official update for this phone.Android and Samsung really don't care for their users.I am affraid of install custom rom or rooting.I think that my phone will become slow and games will lag.Is there any original firmwares for this phone which are stable,fast and not draining battery?How to.install it?Is new KitKat 4.4 good for this phone?Is subwaysurfers laging on it?What should I do?Please help me guys,please.Sorry for bad english

For a clean install and root, flash XXJVU ROM and its CF_root, as it is easy and problem free. I never had any problem with JVU
The whole procedure is given below
FLASHING JVU ROM WITH ODIN v1.85:
1. Install USB drivers for i9000 on PC (ignore if already installed) and restart computer to take effect
2. Turn off your phone/remove battery and put it in download mode
by holding VOL DOWN+MENU+POWER
Do you get the Yellow Triangle?..If so
continue..if not do it again...
3. Open odin and after that Plug in Phone with USB Cable To Computer.
4. In ID:COM box it should go yellow and you should see
ADDED in the message box
5. Check Re-Partition option and then Click PIT
button to select: s1_odin_20100xxx.pit file.
6. Click PDA button and select :
CODE_I9000XXJVU_xxxxx.tar
7. Click PHONE button and select:
MODEM_I9000XXJVU_xxxxx.tar
8. Click CSC button and select:
GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVU.tar
9. When you have all the files needed in ODIN,
Click Start and let it Run
10. Once complete you will see S logo on phone
(computer will make a few noises like connect/
disconnecting
11. If Odin is stuck showing no change above yellow turned box for more than 2 minutes, close Odin and repeat steps 3 to 10.
12.Unplug the Cable from Phone
13. Run your phone and choose the language and the other startup options. Run until you get the home screen.
You will see your phone working excellent. Now it's time for rooting
Procedure for rooting:
1. Power Off Phone
2. Download CF-Root kernel first.
Unzip the file to a folder. You
will get the .tar file – CF-Root-
XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS.tar
— inside the extracted folder. DO NOT extract
the .tar file (even if you see it as a zip
file, which it is not). You need to flash
the .tar file using Odin to gain root
access and install the ClockworkMod
Recovery (CWM) alongside. If you’re
getting zimage file, it means you’ve
extracted the .tar file too! — and that’s
not a right thing to do.
3. Boot your phone in Download Mode —
Press and hold volume down+HOME
+POWER keys together.
4. Open Odin now. Connect your phone to PC now. You’ll notice “Added! !” message in the Odin’s message box in the bottom left and the yellow box.
5. On Odin, click the PDA tab and select the .tar file you got in step 2 — CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-
CWM3RFS.tar
6. Make sure “Re-Partition” checkbox is not selected. Leave the “Auto Reboot” and “F. Reset Time” checkboxes selected.
7. Click the Start button on Odin to flash the CF-Root kernel. After the CF Root is installed, phone will restart automatically. When you see the PASS written in top left box, you can remove the cable.
8. Your phone is rooted now. That surperuser app is there! The CWM app is also there, and
clockworkmod based recovery has
been installed too. Now you enter the custom ROM world without worries. Enjoy!
9. To install any custom ROM, first of all, download the ROM zip file and its g-apps zip file and put them on your internal sd card
10. Now go to recovery. You can go to the recovery by 3 buttons combo:
Turn off your phone/remove battery and put it in recovery mode by holding
VOLUME UP+MENU+POWER
11. You are in recovery now. Click on the "install zip from sd card" option and choose the ROM zip file you want to flash on your phone by navigating by volume up and down buttons and choose by using power button. Click on yes when prompted.
12. When you see "install from SD card complete", install the g-apps zip file.
13. When g-apps installation has been completed, Restart your phone and now enjoy!!!

Its not bricked ( so be cool ) when Odin is stuck in setup connection, simply reboot PC and phone and before attempting to flash again, kill KIES in task manager ( All of these solutions are mentioned in MY Android Solutions, at the top (sticky) of this Forum)
When using Odin to Flash, Open task manager and close these : Kies.exe , KiesTrayAgent.exe, and KiesPDLR.exe
IF your downloaded File (.tar, .zip, .md5 .rar ) is corrupted, Odin could get stuck too, so download from another source, if it happens repeatedly

Just for your INFO.
KIES process will only activate when you connect your phone to PC , IF you did not tick USB debugging, Odin will not detect your phone and comport will not light up (it means you had USB debugging checked. ), so when Odin gets stuck on setup connection,
a) KIES and ODIN are connecting together, as such Odin will have problem trying to setup as KIES willl connect first before ODin3
b) When downloaded firmwares are corrupted, may aso have setup connection problems.
IF you had learned to use the search function in this forum, you would have found this problem and solutions experienced by many and solved easily. So next time use the search or ask for help and be patient as not all members are online in every minute of the day.

Great post!I will use it when i need it in future.
I think GamerzROM Legend Edition V4.0 is great,how much RAM is available with that rom?
Games are great and fun on android phones,so that ROM got my attention.
With GB 2.3.4 Official Stock firmware I was able to have 328 MB available,and when cash is deleted,it takes 150 MB of RAM.I played Subway Surfers and Ski Challange 2014 without lagging.
I'm curious is it even more faster with this ROM.I mean,this looks like Android 4.0 and I heard that Samsung Galaxy S doesn't have enough RAM for that ROM.Tell me more about GamerzROM Legend Edition V4.0 for Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000
THANK YOU
