[Q] first time flashing : do I do it right?

I've never been flashing ROM before. I'm using eclair with voodoo lagfix.
I want to install my initial ROM (DXJG4). I plan to do the following :
1. Disable lagfix (voodoo). Reboot
2. Enter download mode
3. Using Odin, install PDA tar.md5 using .512 pit
4. Do I need to check "Re-partition" box? what is the difference between check or uncheck re-partition?
5. Do I need to check "phone EFS clear" box ?
6. Do I need to re-install Phone and CSC tar.md5 ?
Is it the right thing?
thank you very much for helping me out..

new kernal install?

Please can you tell me how to install a new kernal through odin?

most kernels here have a CWM version which you can flash without odin, I recommend that!
There is also an app called "sgs kernel flasher" which allows you to flash a kernel right within the running phone!
If you want to use odin, chose pda and no repartion and no pit...

Have you used Odin before ?
1. Put phone in to download mode
2. do not connect phone to usb
3. start odin, select your kernel.tar in the pda selection
4. uncheck re-partition - check auto reboot
5. connect phone to usb - odin will diplay "added" in the txt scroll
6. press start
7. Odin will do it thing & if successful will display a "success 1/failed 0" line in the txt scroll
8. phone will reboot & your good to go.
Remember you do this at your own risk

Thankyou very much

i9000 help from cm9

CM9 nice but not ready .... ok, because I'm a noob I have a big problem. I have my new SGS (i9000 3.2.3firmware) with cf-root 2.6 from here (*http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108*). Yesterday put CM9 on it from here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363593) .. and this morning I do not like it..*so I open cwm and tap to restore from backup ... now my galaxy wont open again... what can i do now??
and odin can see my phone in download mode....
sorry for my bad english, i can speek only greek and german...

did you have a backup to begin with?
if odin can see your phone in download then just flash another rom

It doesn't work because the stock partitions are different to CM9. Flash a stock version of whatever you had before in odin with repartition, then a kernel. Then you should be able to restore your backup from CWM

As posted above. The partitions between CM & stock are different. I did exactly what you did. With the same result.
You can get a stock rom from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
Once you have a stock rom you need to use Odin to install it. You will need to have all three files & the pit file. (phone, modem, csc, pit - 512).
Make sure Kies is not running & open Odin. Click re-Partition. Click PIT & select your pit file, Click PDA & select file with PDA in name, click phone select file with phone in name, click CSS & select file with CSC in name.
Once you are ready with this start phone in download mode. Once in download mode attach phone to usb cable wait for top left corner to go green & click start.
This can take some time but once complete phone should restart. At this point my phone got stuck (either boot loop or black screen I can't remember)
If this happens don't panic just remove phone from USB & restart odin. Now make sure re-partition is unchecked & select the three previous files again, don't select pit file. Again put phone in download mode (you may need to pull battery first) wait for Odin to be ready & click start. This time when the phone reboots it should start although this can take a little longer than usual.
Once started I always like to reboot a couple times & clear cache & do factory reset in recovery.

I can't record or play videos on my phone since i flashed this firmware and while flashing it it rebooted like 20 times i removed battery and charged it and did couple things with it so it started flashing. What should i do? Re-flash or something? (1,2 Ghz...

Do you only want to root it or have a newer firmware on it (4.1.2?) as well? If I were you, I'd update

U can upgrade to GB 2.3.6. Its an Open Europe stock rom
Get in download mode (3 button combo) & flash this JVU rom with odin with pit (use 512) & repartition ticked & the 2 next to it also
- Samsung USB drivers --> http://db.tt/BujOFVxz
- Odin & pits --> http://db.tt/yHvd2Brm
- JVU rom --> http://db.tt/z0WBjcFk
Here is an example:
PDA, select CODE_I9000XXJVS_CL565837_REV03_user_low_ship.tar
 Phone, select MODEM_I9000XXJVS_REV_00_CL1059471.tar )
 CSC, select GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVS.tar
 PIT, select s1_odin_20100512.pit
Click start
When pass it reboots automaticly & install.
Done installing turn off Phone & Get in download mode again
Flash this cf root with odin in Pda section
- Cf root --> http://db.tt/BOrZ3cjN
After that it reboots and a cwm icon will appear. Click on it allow & your rooted
From there u can flash a custom rom of your choice or you can stay with gb.

so if its only phone then i shall only select the phone or shall select all
so if PHONE then i shall only select phone and then
 Phone, select MODEM_I9000XXJVS_REV_00_CL1059471.tar )
or shall do all for the sgs
also please explain (3 button combo)

Select all files in odin before pressing start. Pit in pit, code in pda, modem in phone, csc in csc.
Turn your phone off & get your mobile phone in download mode pressing volume down + home button + power button
A triangle will appear on your screen. Connect your phone with pc. In odin you will see that the left bar will turn yellow with the word COM in it. That means your phone is connected and ready to flash.
Then press start, wait till install is complete. See my previous post
