Hello,
I tried flashing skeevy's Mexico Retail 4.1.2 stock rom + stock kernel from holoblur but for some after flashing both of these it retained the holoblur custom kernel no matter how many times I try and flash the stock. I've wiped everything and manually mounted system but no luck. I'm also having a problem with the usb connection it doesn't charge via usb nor is it detected by windows.
Update: Ok I flashed back to stock then did the update and all is working fine now.

Firstly, I must say that bought my i9000 with Mackay rom (4.1.2 then) on it, and that I was very satisfied with it. Since then, I've changed several roms on my SGS.
But, I've been using a new 4.0.1 Mackay KK rom, and still not completely satisfied with some missing options, so I wanted to go back to JB, but I came across some issues. I did exactly how the developer wrote, but no luck. I've been trying to install rom with twrp, but it fails. OK, the developer mentioned it could happen, so I tried to flash again, as said, but still no luck. After that, I tried to flash old kernel, the one for JB, but failed again. TWRP now won't flash anything. Just to mention, the phone isn't bricked. I can power it up, and it works fine.
How can i flash back to old kernel, so I could flash JB again? Or, there is some trick to flash back to JB with kernel 0.600?
Thank U in advance,
filipidis
EDIT: I succeeded in going back to JB. I was somehow able to flash cyancore kernel over TWRP. Then I flashed it again with Mackay kernel, and flashed JB 4.3.
Now, waiting for stable version of Mackay KK.
Hi,
Ive just re flash a Samsung official firmware to my Note, ver 4.1.2. Then later after a short while, Ive decided to re-flash with another release same v 4.1.2. I am able to flash it like always using Odin but after rebooting I was back to the old ROM with previous setting still intact. Tried a couple more time but stil the same. Tried with a third release still gave me the same result.
This is my first time having this issue, re-flash via odin but the original ROM remains with the same setting although flash was successful.
Appreciate if anyone can help. Thanks.
What do you mean by old rom remains? Did you go to settings and check if the build number if the rom changed? The settings of the old rom will be retained when flashing a JB rom as it will not wipe data.
Hey guys, seems that the latest builds of CM11 (4.4.4) have the same problems on my phone.
Country: Romania (Europe)
- I have an i9000 with CWM Recovery 6.0.4.7
- I'm trying to flash CM11 4.4.4 (last i tried: cm-11-20140729-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd) from CM11 4.4.2 (cm-11-2014-02-28--NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd -> XXJVU)
- I did WipeData/FactoryReset, Wipe Cache, Wipe DalvikCache and Format /System, after that I flashed "cm-11-20140729-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd" (CM11-4.4.4), and flashed GAPPS for 4.4.2 (i tried with 4.4.3 too), and reboot (i get no errors)
- The ROM boots up and everything seems to be okay besides the fact that i have no sim service (no signal bars, or pin code pop-up checker at startup), at "About Phone" i get "Baseband version Unknown", Wi-Fi is grayed and it's freezed ("Turning Wi-Fi on..." forever), Bluetooth it's not grayed out, but once i enable it, the "on" button goes gray and it does nothing, also when i go to "About Phone" -> "Status", the Settings app crashes.
I tried to flash a stock radio/modem (XXJVT, XXJVU) in hope that would fix the problem but no change.
I tried to do another wipedata/factoryreset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik after installing the rom and gapps and cleared the data and cache for "Settings" app and others but still with no succes in fixing something.
I tried the M8 build and other close nightlies, all seem to have the same problem.
If i flash my old rom back, everything is working perfect.
HELP! Any solutions to this?
Thank you guys in advance!
I had the same problem yesterday. Try to re-install the ROM. If it still doesn't work then flash a stock ROM (JW4) with Odin and then install 4.4.4 again. The last one worked for me.

After you flashed the stock firmware (JW4 aka GingerBread 2.3.6) what and how did you flash a recovery that is able to install CM11 4.4.4 Roms?
EDIT (FIXED IT):
This solved the issues that i talked about in the main post
I was on CM11 4.4.2, entered recovery and did full wipe
- I flashed stock firmware for i9000 Sweden (JW4 Gingerbread 2.3.6) via Odin
- I flashed root for it wich included a cwm recovery 3.0.0.x
- Entered the recovery which the root installed and did a full wipe
- Flashed directly "cm-11-20140729-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd", after which the phone rebooted in a different cwm recovery (6.0.5.0) and installed the rom and rebooted again
- After reboot, the phone booted directly in the new cwm recovery 6.0.5.0, and i did a full wipe
- Flashed again "cm-11-20140729-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd" and "gapps-kk-20140606" and now the rom (cm11 4.4.4) works perfect with no more problems
Thanks to kalpetros that initiated me in solving my problem with his solving solution (http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=5359865)

CM10.2 contains such recovery. On your place I would flash stock JVU to get for sure last Gingerbread bootloader (JWx don't contain it). As your system and data partitions have been resized you MUST flash together with firmware also the PIT file 512 and enable repartition in Odin, use version 1.82 or 1.83 for that and run it as administrator.
Safer way for not to loose IMEI anymore is to upgrade stepwise (GB,ICS,JB,KK) so first CM9, then CM10.2, then CM11

I didn't lost the imei (or so i think). I just had no service, no enabled sim. (no "imei lost" warning messages)
I wanted to try lollipop for a few days , I did flash the modem and bootloader from R5.1 but after 1 or 2 day I didn't like the lollipop so I just wanted to back to KK I've downloaded the full firmware for international from sammy, flashed it via Odin they it booted normally op then when to fully wipe to install my custom rom it installed but when reboot it keep looping and vibration I tried almost everything full wipe flashed kernel did almost everything I could but it keeps bootloop ,
The only way I can make it work is flash a stock rom it working fine . Any solution
Did you flash the kk modem and bootloader via Odin. Can you put it into download mode and find out what bootloader you are currently on.
Hi guys,
First of all, i made a new thread after looking for a solution for days and pretty much everywhere.
• My issue : i can't get any custom rom to boot. Everytime i flash one, i get stuck with endless bootanim
• so you know :
- flashing original firmwares from sammobile or stock based roms (i.e N4elite) with odin or recovery works perfectly. roms boot and everything work flawlessly.
- i tried almost every lollipop roms (RR, Nameless 2.0 and 2.1, cm12.1, asop, aicp)
- i tried different recoveries (CWM, TWRP, PSN_TWRP)
- i tried different gapps packages
- all downloaded files were good
- i tried wiping everything, even tried changing file system to f2fs (and reverted back to ext4)
- i guess flash memory is ok since Sammy roms work
- my battery is almost new, i changed it not so long ago
- i was running an early cm12.1 build and everything was ok, the issue occured when i tried to flash cm12.1 stable 3 build
As i'm now out of idea, any suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks !

Hello,
I got the same issues ...
Trying to root the Stockrom results in the disappearance of baseband. Maybe this could help? I need to get some sleep first.
Regards
Heiko
EDIT: I thought maybe I fill in a bit more detail. I had CM 11 running which also flashed my recovery to cwm. So I used the TWRP Manager to install new Recovery, but I didn't check the Partition! So it didn't work as planned. Phone was in a boot loop and restartet every 5s. But TWRP via Odin worked. I wiped every partition available in Odin and installed Stock. Which seems to work without root.
CM 11 results in a boot loop.
CM 10.3 boots up, bud doesn't find the modem (same as Stock with root)
I hope there is some help. I like this phone a lot.
I did reinstall Samsung Stock via Kies.
And thank god that solved the Problem.
Restored my backup and everything is working again.

thanks for your feedback and ideas.
i tried to flash stock with kies, it ended with an error, but flashing stock firmware with odin worked, and everything was ok (including modem)...
for now i'm stuck with stock firmware flashed with odin
EDIT :
i finally succeeded.
- flashed old 4.3 firmware with odin without auto reboot
- the flash failed at the end
BUT
- manual reboot in download
- flashed TWRP tar
- reboot in recovery
- flashed 4.3 modem zip
let system boot
reboot in recovery
