Hey everybody,
I was trying to help a friend, which just got a Samsung Galaxy S to put on Cyanogenmod/MIUI. First, I was following this Guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=940095 and install the SpeedMod Froyo Kernel. Than I was booting into recovery and want to apply Cyanogenmod and Miui which both resumed a Installation aborted and an Error 7. After that, I was trying to install Darky's Rom to become at least one system running but this gave an error at Settings Permission so the Installation was aborted. I found out that the Error 7 could be because my version of CWM doesn't support only ext3 and Cyanogenmod and Miui are ext4 Roms. How do I become a working CWM to flash Cyanogenmod/Miui out of the misery that I have not a working System. Thanks for your replies!
interesting.. are you still able to go in download mode? if so than flash a rom from samfirware.com (i use JPU) with 3 files + repartition ticked
good luck
For Cyanogenmod/Miui/Sense Installation
Make sure you have the pc drivers for you phone (download kies, thats about all its good for...make sure its closed when following the instruction below)
1. Factory Reset

10. Shutdown phone
11. Get into download mode again
12. Open odin
13 Put speedmod kernel file in odin (froyo speedmod !) Put the file in PDA and UNTICK auto reboot and repartion...Important..
14. Hit start
14. Pull USB cable out after flash....should say reset in Odin
15. Use 3 button combo to get into recovery (no need to pull battery)
16. Flash galaxys-efsbackup.zip
17. Pull battery
18. Get into download mode
19. Open odin and put cm7-galaxys-initial-kernel into PDA, again UNTICK repartion and auto reboot.
20. Pull out USB and get into recovery....(DO NOT PULL BATTERY OUT TO DO THIS)
21. Flash MIUI/Cyanogen ROM
22. Get into download mode again
23. Open odin and put cm7-galaxys-initial-kernel into PDA, again UNTICK repartion and auto reboot.
24. Pull out USB and get into recovery....(DO NOT PULL BATTERY OUT TO DO THIS)
25. Go under "mounts & storage" and format /system, /cache, /data, /datadata.

Thanks for your reply but I can't find the galaxys-efsbackup.zip on the whole web. where can I download it?
Edit: I found it now, but I cannot enter the phones storage anymore I tried the setting under mounts and storage - mount USB storage. I was able to put the efs backup on the sd card and I plugged it into the phone but I could not find the Folder which contains the .zip I don't know why this happens. I would be so happy if someone have a solution for this.
Edit2: Ok I have now flashed the Stock rom with odin from cyanogenmod and put the Roms in the running System on the SD card and flashed it. Now I have a running sytem after flashing MIUI ROM! Thanks for your Support guys!
Hi All,
These are my mobile details previously :
Mobile details: Samsung Captivate
ROM:FROYO.UCJI6
KERNEL VERSION: 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1
BASEBAND VERSION:I897UCJI6
FIRMWARE VERSION:2.2
nUMBER OF aPPS: 46
I am new to the ROM world and this is my first time.
So i strictly followed the tutorial in this link on "[HowTo W/Pack] Flash Stock I9000 2.3.3 NEE Updated (again) 4/25/11"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045734
Which says :
1. Wipe data and cache/Factory Reset with CWM. (pull battery when complete to shut off phone)
2. Find the "GT_I9000_XWJVB_XXJVK_NEEJV3_Sbl.exe" file and click it and extract its contents into its current folder.
3. Open up Odin 1.7 and now select the 512 pit file I included, and select all the files in the necessary place in Odin and make sure "repartition" is selected". your odin should look like this http://d.pr/Ixt2
4. Put Your phone in download mode and connect, now hit start. (THIS IS WHERE THE ONLY DANGER IS, YOU ARE NOW FLASHING 2.3.3 AND THE NEW BOOTLOADER INCLUDED WITH 2.3.3 Just dont unplug your cable or have your computer die, otherwise you will be 100% Clear)
5. Boot up normally and let things settle.
6. now power off the phone and wait for it to shut off completely. at this point hold down "Volume down and Power" at the same time and wait till download digger appears. Open up Odin and select the 512 pit and xcals kernel(In the PDA box) I included and DE-select repartition if it auto selects and go ahead and connect your phone (Obviously needs to be in download mode) and flash.
7. The phone will reboot and once again let things settle (media scanning and whatnot). Plug in the USB cable and transfer the folders included in this pack named "Fixes and modems" and also "For Rooting" to your phone. then power off the phone once again. this time hold down "Volume Up and Power" as soon as you see the screen turn on let go of the power button and continue to hold volume up until you see CWM.
8. at this point you should be in CWM (Woot!). navigate to flash zip from SD and then navigate to the folder "Fixes and Modems" and flash "Enable CRT Lock.zip" and "update-xvjvb-home_button_fix.zip" and I recommend flashing "modem_ugjk4.zip" as JK4 seems to do the best.
9.Reboot. At this point reboot and you should be on stock 2.3.3! Congrats!!
10. If you want to root read the txt file i included for rooting!
I was able to install the ROM till the 7th step,but from there iam not able to apply the fixes and modems.
Once i press the volume up and power button its taking me to Andriod system recovery <3e> mode:
I have four options here:
1)reboot
2)update from sd card
3)wipe data card / factory reset
4)wipe cache parition
when i choose update from sd card by pressing power button,nothing is happing.
Can anyone help me in this regard.
Another issue iam facing is when i make call installing this rom my normal speaker under the at &T logo is not working,i have to switch on the speaker to talk to anyone, and thereturn key is also not working.
Best Regards,
Chandu.
I gt it resolved after installing the correct rom

I am very new and not very well inform at all and I am hoping I can learn from you guys.
I have : I9000 which is very very slow at the moment - no sim lock and no network lock. Originally from Optus
Here is the details:

I want to install Darky (DarkyROM v10.2) - Will this work?
It will be much appreciated if someone can point me to the right direction because all the guide that I came a cross are saying if I am coming from ECLAIR and Froyo. and none is stating from the spec I have got.
any suggestions is much appreciated
Quick Step by Step guide:
1- You have to look if you have enabled the 3-combo button and also I think it's good to do a EFS backup and save it in your computer.
2- Download Darky 10.2 Resurrection Edition and follow the guide to install it through Odin ( enter download mode, conect USB, check repartition, select pit file, PDA... Etc)
That has to work.
Ok, here you go:
1. Download stock JVQ firmware (http://hotfile.com/dl/122481899/943a689/I9000XXJVQ.rar.html) and unrar it.
2. Download some kernel that supports CWM. Like speedmod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044519) Follow the link and bottom of the first post, there is links, choose one of those.
3. Download Odin 1.3 (http://www.mediafire.com/?zgbta2co4uyct2z) There is also 1.8 but 1.3 works well too.
4. Download Darky's v10.2 (http://www.multiupload.com/NFEDVYNHZX)
5. Open Odin, its .exe inside the .zip you downloaded.
6. Check you have only auto reboot and f.reset are ticked.
7. go to PDA-section: choose PDA file from the JVQ pack you downloaded. Its named CODE there. Then click the MODEM button and choose modem from JVQ pack you downloaded. Its named MODEM there. Then click CSC and choose CSC file from JVQ pack.
8. Put your phone into download mode: shut it down. Then click volume down, physical meny button and power button at the same time. It should show yellow and black screen with Android mascot digging hole.
9. Plug your phone in to PC. In Odin, you should see one of the little boxes turns into yellow. (if not make sure you have latest drivers installed, download KIES if you want them quite easily)
10. When the box is yello, click "start" button in Odin.
11. When it says "PASS" green box should appear and the phone restarts itself. Unplug your phone and wait till it reboots.
12. When it has rebooted shut it down again and put it into download mode again. Do NOT plug it in yet to PC.
13. Press "Reset" on Odin. Then click the PDA button and select speedmodkernel that you downloaded. You don't unrar it. Check that only f.reset and autoreboot are ticked. Then click "Start". It takes few seconds and "PASS" text appears with green box.
14. Wait till you phone reboots. Put Darky's ROM into you internal SD card's root. DON'T unrar it! Just copy it straight to you intSD card.
15. Shut down your phone. put it to recovery mode by pressing Volume up, physical menu button and power button until Samsung galaxy S thing pops up. Release keys and wait.
16. Now you have CWM in front of your nose. use volume down and volume up buttons to navigate in CWM. Go to "select zip from sd card". Click it with power button. Then choose Darky....zip there and click Yes when next menu appears. Texts starts to scroll and when its ready, click "reboot system now". It might do it by its own. i don't remember..
17. It takes some time till phone is ready and reboots.
18. Enjoy
ATTENTION! MAKE SURE YOU PACK UP EVERYTHING YOU NEED. DO ALSO NANDROID BACKUP IN CWM BY CLICKING "backup/restore" and there click "back up ALL" DO that BEFORE you install Darky things!
Thank you for the quick replies - much appreciated - I still have few things to confirm with you guys.
1. Download stock JVQ firmware (http://hotfile.com/dl/122481899/943a689/I9000XXJVQ.rar.html) and unrar it.
### Does this one has to be the JVQ? when I look at Samfirmware the JVQ is for Europe. I am in Australia - will this be a problem?
2. Download some kernel that supports CWM. Like speedmod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044519) Follow the link and bottom of the first post, there is links, choose one of those.
### I have looked at the bottom link and there are 3 options to download. which one should I download? is it this ??: File Type: tar speedmod-kernel-k15i-t10.tar - [Click for QR Code] (7.21 MB, 3436 views)
### How do I install the Kernel?
I am very sorry if this is such very basic questions but I have tried to read it but I just can not get my head around it.
any help is much appreciated.
Regards
1 It isn't a problem
2 Yes is that. You can flash it via sgs kernel flasher (download it from the market) or via odin. You must put it in pda and flash without pit and repartition

Thanks again.
I am so very close here - when I try to download the JVQ - my download manager is saying file does not exists. I go to samfirmware and it says the same. Can I use any other firmware ? Can I use my current firmware?
If I can not use my current firmware, which are the other firmware I can download and use.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME GUYS - MUCH APPRECIATED
Are you using the browser of your phone?

Just tried again and now downloading - very strange
so, correct me if I am wrong - I will need to download : tar speedmod-kernel-k15i-t10.tar and install it using apps from the market?
then I am ready to follow the full instruction to get darky on to the phone .
Thanks
Yes you are right!

Hi Guys, I got to this stage :
16. Now you have CWM in front of your nose. use volume down and volume up buttons to navigate in CWM. Go to "select zip from sd card". Click it with power button. Then choose Darky....zip there and click Yes when next menu appears. Texts starts to scroll and when its ready, click "reboot system now". It might do it by its own. i don't remember..
### I can not find the the ZIP file of Darky - all I see was the folders which was previously in my SD card.
I already put the ZIP darky into the root of my SD but still can not see it.
When I check the the version:
Build number is Gingerbread XWJVN - Is this correct?
Kernel is 2.6.35.7 [email protected]
firmware version 2.3.3
Please help
Thanks guys
You must go in the folder of the zip file of darky rom. If it is in the ext sdcard choose sd-ext.
Strange you must be on xxjvq. Flash it again via odin

I have just flashed it again and now showing JVQ.
but when I try to browse the CD (sorry not CD - SD card) it seems like it is not there.
Let me try again.
### Have tried again but still can not see the darky .zip I need . - very strange
Thank again for your time and suggestions
Cd?
Darky doesnt support JVR yet.
and about kernel:
13. Press "Reset" on Odin. Then click the PDA button and select speedmodkernel that you downloaded. You don't unrar it. Check that only f.reset and autoreboot are ticked. Then click "Start". It takes few seconds and "PASS" text appears with green box.
Already told how to flash it
That download problem is strange... Try later again. I can't help with that..
p.s. Don't worry your questions, its good you ask
sorry, i was late
so you have copied darky to your intSD card? can you see it if you plug your phone to PC.
You should be able to choose it from CWM.. how about is there something like "install zip from sd card" ?

Yes, there is "Install zip fro SD card but when I execute it, it came up with unable to read of somekind....
Now I have download the Darky rom tool form the market. with this tool I can see the darky.zip file I put in my Sd card. but when I try to flash it it came up with :
runtime error:
location (389,0) file//android_asset/Resources/functions.js
Message:
wrapped java.io.IOException: error running exec() command [Su] working directory: null Environment:null(file//android_asset/Resources/functions.js#389
and the flash does not happen. just stop.
Hmmm.... I wonder if I need to clear cache and factory reset it?
Do I need to install super user (busybox*su)?
Hmm.. it might be good idea. Do a factory reset and clear cache and davlik cache. Do it from CWM.
Then put Darky again to your intSD card and try again

I did clean up and install superuser. Now when I run the darky tool it does not come up with the error message again. however when it execute and take me to the CWM, it still can not run the darky.

E:can't open /mnt/sdcard/update.zip

Procedure To Update Samsung Galaxy S With Cyanogenmod 10
Device must be running latest Gingerbread 2.3.6 with ROOT to begin .....
Remove KIES completely from Phone and reboot Computer then Install latest Samsung USB Drivers then Reboot Computer...
Ensure that your phone battery is at least 85 percent charged
Cyanogenmod 10 Download
Download Google Apps (Optional)
Connect your device to PC by using the cable.
Enable mass storage mode on it.
Now transfer / copy all the 2 files to your device’s internal SD card.
Ensure that you are not keeping it in deep directory.
Now disconnect the phone from computer.
You then need to enter into recovery mode.
To do so, switch off the device completely, press & hold Volume Up button + Home Button + Power key until recovery mode appears.
After entering into recovery mode, select “install zip from sdcard” & then “choose zip from sdcard“.
Navigate to the ROM file (which you’ve transferred earlier)
Select it & press on ‘Yes‘ to continue. ROM installation process will start.
Wait for the ROM to get installed.
After ROM gets successfully installed, your phone will land in the recovery mode again.
Now select wipe data/factory reset & wipe cache partition to wipe all the data & caches from the phone memory.
The same procedure you have to do for installation Google Apps. (Just don’t do the above step i.e, don’t wipe the data after installations of Gapps).
After installaing both things, now press back button to land in recovery mode.
Select reboot system now from the Recovery mode to Restart the phone.
Usually first boot of the phone takes some time after flashing of new ROM so be patient....
Done!
Issues if you have any :
LOW STORAGE NOTIFICATION : HERE or See this LINK
If the above doesnt help TRY THIS APP
NO MOBILE DATA :
Toggle Flight mode ON/OFF
IMEI Issue :
Flash a stock version of Android for your device: GB 2.3.6 (JVU, or other) that will restore your IMEI
Then you can backup the /EFS folder.
NO 3G AVAILABLE :
The CSC you used is most likely not intended for your area.
This means that the broadband provider settings are not included and
need to be configured manually.
Go to : Settings->Wireless and Networks->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names, press the settings-button and select "New APN"

HI,
thank you for this huge How to!
I have big trouble to update my Device.
It is not possible to get in the download mode. I tried SDFormatter, it crashes every time i connect SI, Samsungs Ex. HDD Formater runs but no effects on the Phone. Odin cant flash anything (maybe of course of download modus).
What do you recommend?
Sys:
WIN XP Pro SP3, Samsung Driver, Kies
Samsung SI, Android 2.3, Vodafone (Germany) Branding, No Simlock, SIM insert (E-Puls, Provider), No Ex SD Card, original Samsung USB-Cable
What are you trying to update to?
Using the Format tool try with USB Debugging ON
>
Uninstall Kies and reboot machine
Use my HOW TO Files ...
Install Samsung USB Drivers to install then reboot computer again..
Open ODIN and Check Re-Partition and put in PIT File
Make sure all 3 are ticked...
Also put in PDA / Modem / CSC press start when phone is connected via Download MODE
Press start....
Then just follow the rest to Root it...
Let me know if this helps
If you are wanting to go to CM 10 or JB Kies is no use anyway...no one uses KIES anymore
Thanks a lot. I pressed volume +... That was my fault.

Re: [HOW TO GUIDE] ★ Flashing Rom with JVU before Custom ROM + EXTRAS ★
Thanks for the amazingly helpful thread. I had spent amazing amounts of time looking for a JVU bootloader an could not find it. Now i don't need to as your GB odin files fulfilled all my needs.
Now to test out whether your section on drivers will solve my issues of connecting post GB ROMd phone to my computer.

Your welcome, if you dont need Kies in your computer get rid of it ....
Reboot computer afterwards then Install the Samsung USB Drivers and reboot PC again to take affect....
If Phone doesnt recognise follow the Tutorial on the link if USB not Recognised
Random thought .......Life is so good!
High WAF Wireless Inductive Charging Mod Step by Step Guide
Ok i am a little confused with your guide so decided to ask a few questions
i have read your guide down to after odin and this is where i got stuck
i downloaded odin and the odin.tar file on the page what confused me was this - Open ODIN and select 512 .PIT, and put in your files for : CSC, PDA, MODEM
i could not find the underlined files for these. also this confused me too
Check Re-Partition option and then Cleck PIT button to select: s1_odin_20100xxx.pit file. (make sure its on or off?)
Click PDA button and select : CODE_I9000XXJVU_CL851880_REV03_user_low_ship.tar (i only have the odin tar in post)
Click PHONE button and select: MODEM_I9000XXJVU_REV_00_CL1092175.tar (there wasnt anything there when i clicked it)
Click CSC button and select: GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVU.tar (there wasnt anything there when i clicked it)
any help would be nice before i continue

What Rom are you coming from etc...
im useing what was on the phone and my phone is upto date so not sure
my kernel is 2.3.35.7-i897UCKH3-CL461307
The wiki states I must be at Android 2.3 build UCKK4 (AT&T) to get to cm10.
I tried the captivate OTA update- says I am at most recent firmware.
I tried kies- and it says unregistered device.
I just bought this phone (new-unlocked) from amazon to replace my failed captivate (running cm10). I really miss CM on the phone. lol.
Can someone point me in the correct direction? I am hoping there is a way to get to cm10 from where I am.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance
John Kilbert.

Quick few questions please? (elaboration)
from the read-me / many posts:
**Once u have the i897 Gingerbread Bootloaders, it is not necessary to flash them again. They are
backwards compatible, therefore you can flash Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, CyanogenMod, MIUI without issues,
per the proper install instructions.
-Are the bootloarders mentiond, the ones from flashing, or from samsung/att itself. eg. I have stock gingerbread 2.3.4 from the factory, should I use the bootloaders or not?
-Would it hurt to reinstall the bootloaders if there was any question?
- I performed a dry run, and cannot get the "digging down android" I get this:
Android system recovery <3e>
Samsung recovery utils -for bml-

What I expected:
http://apcmag.com/images/galaxy-froyo-3.jpg
Did I do something wrong? (edit: built a jig- goes into digger mode now)
-since I am on 2.3.4 I am tryin gto install the kk4 you linked-
the instructions say get to download mode (done)
run oding as admin (done)
yellow com lights up(done)
press start? --how does this get to the correct file? do I load it under PIT, PDA, PHONE, CSC?
thanks much.

have phone shut off
hold both volume buttons
plug USB into phone
let go of buttons when you see an android digging "down"
4. Flash to Stock I897UCKK4 Gingerbread Firmware
*tbd
4. Click RESET button in Odin (beside START)

(kk4 corn kernel 7.0A)
6. Click "Start" in Odin
7. Reboot into RECOVERY mode (instructions below) ** Use volume buttons to navigate up/dn and pwr for enter.

Here i what I did-

http://hotfile.com/dl/137865417/4bc...S_Bootloaders_Re-partition_Full_Wipe.zip.html
ran as admin the odin file.
pressed the big start button
here is the output.
<ID:0/005> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/005> factoryfs.rfs
<ID:0/005>
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
phone is stuck
any advice?
Have u looked at this Captivate - PC Connection Issues... thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33227541
Be careful flashin packages with bootloaders. If flash fails during the install of the boot.bin or sbl.bin u could possibly brick ur phone.
If u were on anything gingerbread before this, then u have the gb bootloaders. So u can use a package without the Bls included.
Try a different micro usb/usb cable or diffferent usb port. More info in that thread i linked.
Majority of the time, the trying of a different cord is the solution.

Here is how I did it (100% working)-
From android 2.3.4.
Directions that worked: I used linux host running a xp virtual machine guest. This may have presented sopme issues, but it worked.
I used the odin method. Each time I connnected the phone I needed to goto devices and click the phone. I need to do this
because I needed 2.3.5 to get a rom installed, and OTA/Kies failed everytime.
Preliminary: Download Rom (and gapps) and get on internal 13gb SD card. power off phone.
