Well the phone is from Europe i assume ?? if so i would just go for 2.2 froyo (JPY) or 2.1 Eclair (JPU) as upgrades have been officially released, and they wont think anything of it if you have one of them... where as a custom ROM would raise some eyebrows lol.

[Q] Iam New here pls help

hello every one iam just got my S I9000 ( not plus ) i want links for tutorials about how to root my phone and get the newest baseband and i want link for the best kernel and rom ( best rom in graphics/speed/games )
thanks in advance

First of all, there's no such thing as the best rom - it's like trying to compare apple and oranges and saying one's better than the other. I usually recommend people to start with stock-based roms (so no AOKP or cyanogen mods) simply because it's closer to the stock rom and usually to flash.
As for rooting your phone, if you are already planning to flash a new rom, there's not much point in rooting it now. All custom roms are rooted. If still want to learn to root (which might actually be a good starting point), you need to tell us what firmware you are currently on.

thx for replay and my firmware 2.2.1
and my baseband t959uvka7

thats not an i9000 thats a tmobile vibrant...

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm goood

Trying to flash a I9000 rom on a Vibrant will most likely brick the thing. Better to start looking in the Vibrant section instead. Good thing Paul spotted it.

his mob is tegra ?? he have the same mob like mine and i dunno where's my section !!! should i just search for any vibrant t-mobile section ??

When in 4.1.2 root your phone, after root flash the custom rom 4.3 you will not have the new bootlaoder and will not have issues on knox things.
But if I'm you I will wait for Galaxy S5 coming on March or April I think.

Thanks Bro that was my expected answer.. and one thing i saw some thread state that internal sd should be format and if not there would be some file/folder error.... so when i flash 4.3 is there anything else i do??

No, for real. Just flash ANY custom 4.3 rom over your 4.1.2 (custom roms don't contain bootloader) and you are ready to go/use
This way, I had no problems... And I've been flashing my phone TONES of times ;p
