[Defy General] Behemia:
Ok so in an attempt to get a 2.2 rom on my defy earlier today, i have become stuck at the first hurdle.. as it were.

Basically when running RSD Lite 4.9, it detects the phone fine, and also detects it in bootloader, however after selecting the .sbf to flash nothing appears in the box, nor does the start button work/text turn black

In case you're wondering im running Windows 7 64 bit, Defy is running 2.1.21 UK Blur (untouched since release), RSD Lite version 4.9

-Using Pays guide/roms etc

-3.4.3_11 stock sbf, tried a different version of the same file etc doesnt work

-In bootloader mode, the defy appears as "S Flash OMAP3630"

I have heard of errors in windows related to file permissions, and tried to move to different places, take control of folders, give maximum permissions etc but nothing still-- also tried running rsdlite as admin

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
[Defy General] Behemia:
FIXED

For anyone else having this issue;

Firstly go to program file(x86)/motorola/rsd

right click the SDL application, set to run as admin and click apply

run the program, and search+select the .sbf you wish to flash(should be in C:\ )

I named my file defyrom.sbf

You then need to put a space between the name of the sbf in the actual file in windows explorer(any errors require you to disable UAC in 7/vista)

So the file will look like this "C:\defy rom.sbf"

Now go to RSD and put a space between the file name and hit start

Ta Da! :)

PS. Just finished flashing Pays 5.1 and has now booted *excited* ;D

I get the Blank screen and the logo screen. I think i need the 1.6 update.pkg Build 7921. If anyone knows or can send it to me I'd greatly appreciate it, thanks in advance.

If anyone can see a wrong in my method please do point it out.

When I get 1.6 update.pkg Build 7921

Do I:

Flash the 309 Recovery image

Than install 1.6 update.pkg from the main device menu

that should make it work?

[Streak 5 General] BrickedDellz:
I rooted my dell streak 1.6 Build 7921 using Z4root. I know it didn't work on my device because i tried running some rooted apps and it didnt run. I tried rooting with Android Universal and it worked! Couple of weeks after i got the OTA update for Android 2.2 Froyo for Dell Streak with Rogers communications.

I tried to install the update, and if i remember correctly, my phone went to a blank screen and was stuck there for long time, I than put update.pkg 2.2 Froyo the OTA update on Micro SD CARD. ON my device I went into the factory reset options by holding volume keys>power button.

I factory reset my device, and rebooted my device with the SD CARD in it and tried installing the "update.pkg" from the main menu option(Option 2) Since than my device wont go pass the DELL LOGO every time I boot.

Its been a weeks time since that happened now in the root of my sd card I have Clockworkmod and update.zip files of 1.6 Build 7921, I also tried flashing 309 Recovery image and a lot of different update.pkg files and still haven't figured out, how to fix my problem.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdnet:
Purchased two Bell Canada Samsung Galaxy S as-is from local kijiji.

They all performing the same thing, rebooting at Galaxy S logo, GT-I9000M page, it won't go any further. and there is no recovery mode at start-up.

Here are the steps which I have played with for past two days.

1. Trying to get to recovery mode

- tried ADB, but it doesn't work, since "USB debug" is not on, and it won't accept as a device, and I am not able to turn that on, since I can't even get on the main screen.

- tried three key combo, vol up + home + power on, at least a hundred times for past two days, it doesn't work. fortunately download mode is working (at least I have more option to try). and I know how to get to recovery mode, I played with my friend's before.

2. Trying to use ODIN to flash the firmware

- unchecked "re-partition", unchecked "bootloader", pick 512 as PIT and then choose following as PDA

JH2, JK3, JK4, JL2

always successful on refresh, but phone still does the same, stuck at LOGO page

- also tried, checked "re-partition", and checked "bootloader", pick 512 as PIT and repacking following into PDA, Phone/Modem, CSC, still won't work...

JP series, JH, JK series, JL

At the beginning I though it was problem on CSC, I didn't use correct one to match my phone model #, but what's mine??? I can't go into my phone to check. I checked my friend's I9000, he used I9000BMCJK4, and I assume all JK series should work with me, since our IMEI are similar. And I tried many times on different cache.rft as CSC.tar, still no luck for me

I go crazy now, $400 USD gone. Seriously needing help. Any help is highly appreciated.

try the one jl2 download file and samsungfirmwares.com it flashes a special bootloader that may fix things.. it should be a single file you put in as pda nothing else..

if not they may have permantely trashed internal memory and you are sol.

I have tried one of JL2 file from somewhere (don't remember where), but I will get one JL2 file from samsungfirmwares.com again, see if that works.

Do you mean, only choose the file for PDA, left PIT empty, and get everything uncheck?

permantely trashed internal memory? are these the common problem with this model? I got two of these, and both of them have the same issue, I think, there should be a way to slove it, right? Should I give up these thoughts???

anyways, thanks anyways, I will report back after I flesh JL2 from samsungfirmwares.com

anything else I can try? maybe something simple I didn't do???
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt_kyle:
I too am a bell user I had the same problem a few weeks back. This is going to sound messed up, but i'm going to do my best to explain how I solved the problem.

DO NOT MULTI-TASK ON THE COMPUTER WHILE DOING THIS. CLOSE ALL OTHER APPLICATIONS.

-remove external sd and sim card

-go into download mode (hold vol down+power+home).

-turn on ODIN

-plug in usb (both computer and phone)

-check re-partition

-ONLY use the 512 pit file. DO NOT use a rom.

-start ODIN and it should only take a minute. this will wipe your device completely but still allow you to access download mode.

- remove usb close ODIN

- start up ODIN again and connect usb

- use 512 pit and JP1 or JP2 rom.

- After flashing, this SHOULD give you an error and send you straight into recovery mode. you're looking for a specific error code. you need the error to have "sl01" or "sl10" (whichever, i forgot which it was) at the end of the path. if the end of the path has "m(something)" then use a different rom till you get the "sl10".

these errors are internal sd errors which your phone is experiencing right now, but the phone is fixable from the "sl10" error.

continuing...

- once you get the "sl10" error, close ODIN, unplug USB, turn off phone.

- go back into download mode.

- boot up ODIN with 512 pit and ULG2 rom.

- plug in phone

- start flashing.

this can give you two outcomes:

1) fixed galaxy S

2) error code with "m(something)" at the end of the error path.

if it's #2 do this all over again until it works.

This took me 3 days to figure out these steps, 10 hours each day. although it doesnt seem to make sense, my phone is working right now and it is where I am writing all this from. My only explanation is that Bell gets ****ty product from samsung. it's almost impossible to flash custom roms on a bell galaxy i9000 because the internal SD seems to have trouble being mounted.

i hope this helps and i hope it doesnt take long for you to fix this problem.

btw, if it does get fixed data connection wont be available. to enable it go to your apn settings. create new named "Bell" with apn as "pda.bell.ca" and leave all other options blank. data should be restored after that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdnet:
great!!! Another option I can try. Thank you.

I will try it out right after my work. so the idea behind this, is bricking it into recovery mode and S10 error code. and then fresh right back with correct ULG2 (is this correct? frist time heard about this rom)

anyways, I will post back with result.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdnet:
jt_kyle, Thank you!!!

but none of JP1 or JP2 is givining me the error "tl10", I tried

I9000DXJP1

I9000TGYZSJP2

I9000XXJP1

I9000XXJP2

it come out error started with "m..."

I just keep refreshing each on PDA 3 to 4 times, and choose with re-partition or without. At the end I try a few another ROMs as well, I still get no "tl10", but somehow, just that magicical moment, the screen come out a set of commands that look like format sd card, so I got excited, fresh it with JL2. It is back to work.

still no clue the steps of fixing the problem.

one done, the another one to go.

any more ideas please, and I think I am really close to solve this one now.

Could it be dead?

Since you have one of the infamous i9000m's it might also just be a dead SD card? You might try calling samsung and trying to get it repaired under warrenty as they are all under a year old (try and flash jl2 first even it will not boot up). It sounds like no receipt may not be an issue.

same problem

Hey ive got pretty much the same problem that you had. Only differences are that I'm from Australia and am on Virgin network.

My phone became semi bricked one day when it restarted and since the 3 button combinations did not work i ordered in a USB jig which i received today. I used odin 1.8 to try and flash to I9000BVJJPD which i got from samfirmware.com but it ended up stuck on the logo screen vibrating once in a while. I decided to repeat it with no avail and began to use other roms and use .PIT.

This is where my phone became even worse and is now in it's current position; rebooting at the GT-I9000 page. I tried the method that jt_kyle suggested, substituting australian roms instead but it is still in the same position.

Does anyone have any other suggestions or should i just try getting a warranty?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdnet:
Again, Thank you so much for your help on my first Samsung Galaxy S.

I recalled what I did to get the first one working, does not involve on these sl10 error code, somehow, it just showed up with all the commands... in three seconds, it boots into the main screen. Looks to me, it's random.

My buddy, (he is tech), is saying that's problem on the ROM. and it's hard to explain why sometime works, sometime doesn't.

Do we really got faluty ROM for these Bell Samsung Galaxy S???
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt_kyle:
it is and isnt faulty. dont use anything more then speed mod k10J to increase performance. for some reason, overclocking speeds beyond the K10J kernal default overheats the hardware and the device has a problem locating the internal sd to mount.

i dont think its a rom problem, i am also in tech and networking. reason i say this is because the roms i used were always the same. it failed a lot a first but i eventually got it going, hence me saying it took me 10 hours each day for 3 days straight on my first response.

then again now that i think about it, it may be the rom because even though UGL2 is the official stock rom for bell froyo, im pretty sure the ones leaked on the net aren't the same as the ones samsung/bell tech support use. they obviously have the master file....or maybe not cause it takes them a month to send the product back to the client...anyways excuse my ramblings...

my only advice is to not give up. if it is the rom it just means that sooner or later it'll work. my phone is evidence of that. i know the sl10 error may have nothing to do with my solution, but with continuous trial and error, my solution is bound to work.

good luck!

btw, good job on picking those devices up. assuming u get the second one running thats like $4-500 in your pocket should u choose to sell one.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdnet:
yes, I am really happy. at least I got one running. I dare not touch this one other than PHONE function until I get the another one going.

After countless time of freshing, finally I got stl10, but that's after I refresh I9000UGJL2... now, I stuck, should I just keep refreshing this PDA until it work? I am working it now, take a break every 3 freshes, trying different PDA, 3 tar files...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt_kyle:
try flashing with pit512 alone then again with UGL2. probably give u an error again but no harm is really done if the phone can still be flashed. also dont multi task on the computer ur using. the flash will get interrupted with any other running idle applications.

SHINE YANG: that explanation I gabe is for Bell Canada users of the i9000. if you're not with Bell then the method wont work. if you are then here are some answers.

1. with repartition checked

2. 512 pit with jp1 or 2 is set to bring up the error I explained to look for. if you use 803 it may flash ur phone to jp rom which is only a beta/developer rom to test stuff on.

3. only spped mod that works on bell i9000 is the k10j. all others will cause an internal sd mount error.
