how do i find these 3 files??? I have Odin application & the latona file from the 1st post. The Tar file i downloaded from samfirmware. But i can't find the other files mentioned. Also, is the modem need to be flashed when upgrading from froyo?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ggclanlord:
Tis guide is for Froyo.

If u wanna flash GB follow Misledz Guide.

And if u got only one .tar file in ur firmware, flash it as PDA. Its been said a quadrillion times already and is even mentioned @faq!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kkrraazzyy:
this guide will also work for gingerbread
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] fanthomasse:
remove it then put it back? or getting into download mode without battery? can you be more explicit?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mitoVonDido:
yeah just removed the battery n then enter download mode again..

btw if u confused, u can always refer to this thread by misledz :)

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] akshay_1991:
Okay so I don't use this phone. I need to flash the firmware for 'nother friend of mine. One question.

Do the European firmware and the basebands work with Russian providers? (I'm assuming the PIT file to be the baseband.) I mean can Russian users help me here?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] crazbanditz:
Okay first of all. The pit file is not the baseband. Its just sets a partition. Secondly, all firmwares can be flashed and will not affect your service provider in any way, however, flashing a firmware not from your region, voids the warranty.

Someone pls help...!! I tried to flash my i9003 with XXKPH firmware and it was only one file.. I by mistake downloaded the PIT file to my phone and flashed it with the single PDA file..

Phone bricked - Cant get it to satrt

i was on GB 2.3.5 (baseband version I9003XXKPM). I had wanted to flash the phone back to froyo 2.2.1 (baseband version I9003XXKB3) as the front camera in Fring was not working and was working well on froyo.

so i was following the flashing procedure on this page

i followed the steps exactly to this point

1. Download and run odin.

2. Check Re-Partition, Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time.

3. Click PIT button and select this file: latona_20110114.pit

4. Put your phone into download mode: Press Volume down + OK + Power.

5. Connect USB cable and the program will detect the phone's Com number.

6. Click Start button to download the PIT file to phone.

then the phone shut down and hasn't started up since then. It cant get detected by the computer (both by kies and odin). I cant get into either download mode or recovery mode.

I guess its bricked. Please help guruji..im really stressed out! Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] chongns:
the usb should disconnected when trying go into download mode
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bracula:
relax. I think it's just "soft" bricked.

pull off your battery from the device, and wait for few minutes, say 3-5 minutes.

then put the battery back, and push 3-combo buttons to access download mode.

goodluck.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] longfeng:
but you can start the phone normally since you say kies cannot detect.

so your procedure to go download or recovery is wrong.

try again.

Currently my i9003 is on

PDA:i9003DDKF1

CSC:i9003ODDKA6

I want to update to the latest firmware, so downloaded zckp8

The rar came with the following files

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Now my questions are:

1. Can i directly flash my phone using ODIN and the files shown above?

2. What to do incase i want stock froyo back

3. what should i backup before flash , so that i have besides my contacts and sms
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jaskiratsingh:
Dont be stressed out. You have repartitioned the device drives; hence it will not boot. You need xxkb3 firmware as it is only one with 3 files. Download from krazy's thread or sammobile.com. Select the files in ODIN (remember it will not have boot) hence you need to select the remaining three.

I dont remember the file name but below is what combination should be:

CSC - CSC will be mentioned in file name

Phone - Modem will be mentioned in file name

Last one will be the third one.

Unplug USB, remove battery, insert battery, press vol down + Home + power

The device will come into download mode.

Afterwards flash xxkb3

Once done, flashh ddkf1 (if u want)

I think it is a hard brick. Can it be solved by using odin and flashing with a new firmware.....just please dont tell me to take it to customer care:(
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] pabreu:
remove n reinsert battery and try entering download mode.

if u can enter download mode then no worries.

before upgrading to gingerbread, we must flash latona and kpe esp. the apboot before we upgrade to kph or kpm. when downgrading back to froyo i noticed that there is no apboot file in kb3, only pda, csc and modem. is it ok to downgrade without that boot file for froyo?

Thanks, and sorry for noobness, still new..

--EDIT--

i downloaded JPKP5 , i have now 2 weird files (ABOOT and CODE ) , no PDA ?? Where to put those?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
kb2 can be downloaded from http://www.samfirmware.com (need to register)

or

here is the alternate link for I9003DXKB2

http://hotfile.com/dl/112533344/d0ffba9/I9003DXKB2.rar.html

You can also use kies to update to kb2
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jit_devil2:
this ones the indian one you sure?i flashed this one but the phone wont go past the boot screen.maybe its because as a guy before me pointed out its missing the modem file.........................will try again later.as of now enjoying the european firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
this one is indeed Indian/Asian version but its better to update via kies.

If you already have kb3 the European version why download the kb2?

Any specific reason or just for fun?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] rex4u:
DX is Japanese and DD is Indian. So the Indian version will be I9003DDKB2.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] zhaky_gng:
Unfortunately SGS put warranty seal exact above that hole. So i cant test this method. But it's nice info. b:)d

Maybe jit_devil2 should try this method.

My phone now back to normal again. Yesterday i bought it to SGS service center & have firmware re-flash, back to DXKB1. They say there is no update yet (KB2) for my region (DX) :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jit_devil2:
i was thnkin da same thing..............cudn remmbr da name correctly but was certain it was not dx.......................can i get the dd firmware from anywhere?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kkrraazzyy:
till now there is no dd series of f.w
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
If you connect phone to kies it will notify you to update to Indian version of KB2.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jit_devil2:
nope it doesnot kies tries to search firmware upgrades matchin your current fw code..................means you'l get eu updates if already on eu firmware.asian updates if using the dx series firmwares.for kies to upgrade to a indian firmware.you atleast need the ddkb1 flashed on your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
Oh so you have updated your phone to the kb3 European fw, are you have any problem with it that you want to downgrade?

Post some review about the kb3 & its features.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] rex4u:
Don't expect Indian firmwares to get updated so easily. Samsung releases very less updates for Indian phones. I have Wave S8500 and Galaxy 3 too and I know :(

Thats why I am always on European firmware but only after I have my original firmware as backup with me ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bala_gamer:
hi rex4u, if we install the europe firmware, will we get frequent updates? will it show up in kies?

Im thinking of going for an europian firmware once the stock rom of i9003 gets released.

Jus went over samfirmware site and came to know that indeed there are very few indian firmwares even for galaxy i9000
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
Cant we take a backup of the stock rom ie. kb1 or kb2 with which the phone was shipped?

I guess if we install European fw our mobile numbers are still getting detected as Indian.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] rex4u:
@bala

Yes European firmware gets most updated. People over there seems very active and force Samsung to release updates for their problems ;)

Yes you could update through Kies but will need to hack Windows registry.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jit_devil2:
xxkb3 feels a little smoother than the ddkb2(might be placebo effect) and the keyboards changed(kind of like it except the swype tutorial bugs from time to time)and there are some different stock applications like route 66.other than that no noticable difference.i like the kb3 dont wanna downgrade.would love a copy of the ddkb2 as insurance if i need to flash back for some reason
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] rex4u:
@jit

What other stock applications ?

Could you plz post your Antutu benchmark results.

Thanks !

apps and 3g/EDGE troubles

First of all, thanks for the awesome guide.

I just flashed the XXKPM firmware, but Im having a couple of troubles...

First of all Im having trouble installing several apks that i downloaded to the external sd card, The installation process starts but then it says that the app didn't install.

Second, and more troubling, is the fact that when im using 3G or EDGE i cant see any webpages, the ebuddy works, the whatsapp works, even the market app works. But when i open the html viewer app, or the dolphin hd it apears to have no internet connection...

This doesn’t happen when I’m connected through wifi.

I already reflashed the phone, and it just keeps happening.
