[Q] question about galaxy S model differences

So I have a galaxy S vibrant SGH-T959. I recently updated to the leaked 2.2 and its awesome. So I was talking to a co-worker who has the galaxy S I9000 dxjg4 and he uses that on AT&T but he'd like to get some 2.2 action on it. I wasn't aware of the various different I9000's there were until today, I just thought there was the 4 for the US carriers and the I9000 for everyone else.
What can I load on his phone? Are the ROMs mostly compatible between all the I9000s or are they just as different as one for a vibrant vs his phone?
What is different between all those i9000 models, is each one for a specific carrier? Is there a universal unlocked one that isn't tied to any carrier?
If I wanted to get an I9000, is there any specific one that's the "good" one to get? gets the fastest updates, etc? Where would you even pickup one of those? Do they have a model that does 3g on both Tmobile and AT&T?
Thanks,
-J

No dice? Someone has to at least be able to answer SOME of these questions? Where did you guys get your galaxy S i9000s? Some internet site?

The t-mobile galaxy s vibrant you have doesn't have a front Facing camera and uses a different radio chip to support the 1700 (AWS) frequency that t-mo uses.
The international galaxy s I9000 has front facing camera, fm radio support and uses the standard international frequency.
The Bell (Canadian) galaxy s vibrant (I9000M) is same as the international one except the radio is change to support the North American carriers (850 frequency instead of 900).

Greetings and a Merry Xmas to those that celebrate the holiday!
As a new owner of a SGS I was hoping someone could assist in identifying my particular model and if the Froyo OS update is available for it. KIES was not any help, says this model already has the most current version.

Again, thanks to any who respond.

recommend you search around and flash to jpy..then flash either the jp2 or jl3 (part of canadian jl2 firmware) modem all in odin.. then do factory reset... then you may have to use sgs info to make sure 850 mhz 3g is enabled..

[Q] TSF Shell Pro on Sammy question

Hey folks, I have not updated my Samsung captivate for more than a year now. I forgot what I put last time but here is what I am seeing on About phone:
Model number: SGH-T959D
Firmware version: 2.2
Baseband version: T959TLJL3
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9, CogKernel6-by-Designgears #10
Build number: Perception Build 9.5
Will TSF Shell Pro work on my Samsung Captivate phone? Here is a video that got me interested.

T959 is not a captivate, its a Vibrant.

The firmware might not be but my phone is really Captivate

Here is a thread which contains pictures of my Samsung Captivate. It's more than a year old thread but pictures are still there

Your firmware is preception wich is a I9000 ported firmware with a I9000 modem. No clue on why your phone Model Number = what your phone thinks it is. I have no clue as to your original question. I would like to know why your phone thinks its a Vibrant and not a Captivate.

I remember a year ago, I was helping designgears testing different firmwares on captivate. We were working on different modem fw.
Anyways, if TSF shell hasn't been ported yet, what should I try instead? What's the coolest as of right now? Is it serendipity?

[Q] AT&T Samsung Tab with P1000 ROM

Ok, so I put my foot down and bought a new unlocked/rooted AT&T version off ebay with the following stats:
Model number GT-P1000
Firmware version 2.3.3
Baseband version I9000UGK3
Kernel version 2.6.35.7 Overcome-v4.0.0 #40
Build number Overcome 7 series v4.0.0
I paid $429 for it; I know...but, I really wanted the phone option that came with it.
Can anyone tell me if there's any way to make sure it was indeed a brand new tablet?
Also, are the software versions (ROM, kernel, etc.) alright or do I need to upgrade?
All help is greatly appreciated!

[Q] Options with a Korean version of the tab (SHW-M180S)

Hi all.
I have a Korean version of the Galaxy Tab that I'm using in the US.
Model: SHW-M180S
Firmware: 2.2
Basebad: M180S.DL24.0810.ST
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1
Build: Froyo.DL24
What are my options for rooting / firmware flashing? I've searched the forums for the ROMs that I might be able to use, but I don't see anything listed specifically that fits.
If I didn't care about getting the modem working, does it matter which version I decide to use? I know the Korean version have a bit more hardware in it (mainly the over-the-air TV), but I don't care about that either as it's completely useless in the US.

Baseband for Samsung S5 Exynos (G-900H)

I am using T-mobile living in US. My current baseband is G900HXXU1CPD1.
I would like to know if this baseband is the lastest?
Thank you
