[Q] Downloaded ZSJG4 firmware from Samsung firmware website, but only one file inside

I have read through all the tutorial materials in the stickies, and I have already rooted my phone successfully. I have just downloaded the official firmware off the samsung firmware website. However, there's only one I9000ZSJG4.tar file inside. I am assuming that this is the pda file. Then where are the modem and CSC files?
it's included inside. don't worry, just flash it as pda.
Wow. That was fast.
Thank you so much! I love you
just throw in the PIT file and PDA file, flash as usual!

[Q] Firmware package editing.

If you open the .tar file you find the "zimage" "pram.lfs" modem.bin" "farctory.rfs" "cache.rfs"
my question is, If I remove all the files except the modem.bin and put this in odin as phone will this update my modem only? Keeping my firmware etc.
Thanks,
Luke.
Bump!
Can anyone answer this?
I don't want to just try it and end up having to flash again

How to flashed stock XXJVT with Odin?

Hi guys, just purchased a new SGS from the store, it is still on Froyo though, I wish to upgrade it to GB with Odin, and I've finished downloaded XXJVT firmware from
http://www.sammobile.com/showthread.php?t=17
after I extract them, I got these:
CODE_I9000XXJVT_CL617736_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.md5
GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVT.tar.md5
MODEM_I9000XXJVT_REV_00_CL1064602.tar.md5
GT-I9000-CSC-HOME-MULTI-OXAJVT.tar.md5
s1_odin_20100512.pit
I know that PIT file is for PIT slot, user_low_ship is for PDA, Modem is for Phone slot, but as you can see there, there are 2 CSC files, CSC Multi and CSC Home-Multi, which one should I choose? and is there any extra steps before I flash them with Odin? any help is appreciated!
In upgrading firmware from Froyo to GB you need to upgrade bootloader as well. But before that, check whether your phone can enter "download mode" or not.
If can, then find gingerbread bootloader. You can search it here in XDA, or you can search [Ramad] stock ROM. He always provide the package that include bootloader. I'm not sure about the above firmware.
I read it somewhere that the bootloader is already included in GB, isnt it?

[Q] How to restore a .tar file downloaded from sammobile.com?

Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone would happen to know how to restore a .tar file that I downloaded from sammobile.com/firmware/ . I got it in the hopes it would have a seperate PDA, CSC etc. files so I could restore using Odin put I have to admit I was stumped when I just got one .tar file. The file in question is Optus' 2.3.3 firmware and is called 'jvn_jv5_jv1.tar' if it's any help. The files inside the tar are:
-zImage
-param.lfs
-cache.rfs
-factoryfs.rfs
-boot.bin
-modem.bin
-Sbl.bin
Thanks.
Not 100% certain on this so perhaps wait for a confirmation but I think that if you only have one tar file you put it in the PDA and flash it.

Can totally confirm this!!
But if you want further confirmation there are instructions on sammobile.com
It's an easier way to flash as its only one file and less people can get the files mixed up. (It still has the kernal and modem inside it)
Edit: Just check and it seems to be missing dbdata.rfs Did you miss that out. If its not there then do another download and see if it is. If not then im sure it'll be fine..

I'm not sure if you're looking for the NE3 modem files or the more recent NH3. Either way I've provided links below for both, you'll have to extract the zip file and flash modem.bin and NON-HLOS.bin with Odin. From what others have reported, it's recommended that you flash both files twice to get them to stick. Let me know if they work because I've had to manually extract them from the phone.
NH3 Modem
NE3 Modem
Thanks Devo7v! I was looking for the NH3 modem. Im away from a pc at the moment but will flash when I get home. Thanks a lot for your time and effort. Ill post back with results tonight.
It says fail (auth). Is odin the only way to install? Can I use root explorer and replace the files or push via adb?
