[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cookm75:
Firstly, apologies if this is already posts elsewhere, but I have tried looking for this with no joy (there's aloooot of threads n here lol)

I recently upgraded to the leaked official 2.3.3 using odin (sbl version).

However, I would like to flash with stock software now to get the official upgrade on my Galaxy S via Kies.

Can someone please help or point me to a guide on doing this and where i can download the correct version. I assume its not as straightforward as simply downloading a stock version of Froyo and flashing as I did to upgrade.

My Current phone version is showing as PDA:JVK / PHONE: JVK / CSC:JVK (CPW)

I should point out that this is the first time ive flashed software on my phone, so ideally a step by step guide, if there is one out there :confused:

Thanks for any advice you can give :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
Ok first of all what you need to do is download an older firmware, preferably in 3 files.

Look here: www.samfirmware.com (you need to register, free)

or look here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=846913

when you have your selected firmware, you need to download a software called 'Odin', this is what we use to flash firmwares to our devices. Look here for a tutorial http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=723596

when you have 'Odin' and your 'Firmware' you may also need a 'PIT' file, this is explained in the above link. This will re-partition the device and restore the 'bad blocks' and remove any lagfix / altered file-systems ect ect.....

Because you are on Gingerbread at the moment, its possible that you have changed your boot loader, in order to restore this back to Froyo bootloader, i think the firmware you will need is JM1 ( you may need to search here / google for the correct answer)

anyway when the whole process is completed, you should be able to connect to KIES and flash the latest release.

Any problems just write back. im sure we can help get you going !! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zolah:
I think that JM1 is eclair...

froyo works with the gingerbread bootloaders so you should just be able to flash a froyo rom i THINK.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoian1277:
Hi im also wanting to do the same looking at the samfirmware files would JS8 be ok to flash?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] branalvere:
Any froyo ROM is fine as long as it contains the bootloaders as gingerbread ROMs have different ones.

Download your ROM. Check inside the PDA (sometimes code) tar. If you can't see by clicking on it find instructions how to untar it.

There should be a boot.bin and an sbl.bin if there is you're good to go. If not flash another one that has.

You can always reflash with your preferred froyo ROM after the initial flash has downgraded the bootloaders

This link tells you all you need to know about flashing with Odin.

Ok, I tried flashing using the JPY firmware. The process seemed to go okay.

But only getting the 'S' logo for ages then the phone starts ocaasional quick vibrations and screen eventually goes black.

Have tried rebooting ans reseting.

Please help :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] branalvere:
First boot after a flash does take a long time and you may get the odd little vibration. The screen may go black for a little while. Be patient. If nothing happens after six or seven minutes pull battery try again. If still no good reflash.

You did check repartition in Odin? And use. 512 pit? You need the pit file for a reflash.

Maybe md5 your firmware to check you didn't get a corrupted download.

If you can still get download mode don't worry you will be able to sort it. Most people on xda brick their phones most weeks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cookm75:
well i reflashed the 2.3.3 leaked and its working for now, will try again tomorrow, getting a bit late.

Was wondering about whether I should try the JM1 instead of JPY. But, on the Sammyfirmware website they only had XW***JP1 which I understand is not for UK/Europe (mine is XX)?

But thanks everyone for your help so far, i may be back on in tears tomorrow :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] branalvere:
You can use any firmware - they were released with different codes in different regions but if you use a multi CsC like the one in the jpy ROM it doesn't matter because its the csc file that does the regional settings not the PDA file
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cookm75:
Hmmm well showing on Samsungs FB page that the ginerbread update has been pulled (by Google) :(

Guess i'm sticking with the leaked version for now
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heyescroft:
Sorry to muscle in on this thread but I'm trying to go back from GB 2.3.3 to Froyo 2.2.1. I've flashed JPY with Odin, used repartition, 512 pit and registry patch 1.82 to XEU, phone works fine. Well, Kies then recognises that there is a new firmware (JPY as it happens) and starts the upgrade process, I then get an error message saying that this version can't be updated :confused:

Any ideas??

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heyescroft:
We now have two threads on the same subject but as this was started first I'll continue with this one.

Thanks for the suggestion, I flashed JPU but unable to connect to Kies so flashed the 1 file JPY but still got the same error message with Kies. Maybe I'll try reinstalling Kies and see what happens.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heyescroft:
OK, I've reinstalled Kies, changed the product code in the phone with *#272*IMEI# to XEU and now Kies tells me that I have the latest firmware - great bring on the official version of GB. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmfpdlemalnz@hotmail.com:
can anyone give me a link of jpy firmware with bootloader?

the ones from samfirmare.com are WITHOUT bootloader...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cookm75:
Okay, seems that Samsung have finally released Gingerbread.....again. So am gonna make another attempt at downgrading to Froyo so I can get the official Gingerbread update.

However, because of the issues I had with my last attempt, I would like to make sure I am doing it correct.

Current Phone Software

Model: GT-I9000

Firmware Ver: 2.3.3

Baseband Ver: I9000XXJVK

Kernal Ver: 2.3.35.7-I9000XXJVK-CL75655 se.infra@sei-28 #2

Build Number: GINGERBREAD.XXJVK

I believe the version I installed included the bootloader

The phone was purchased in the UK on T-Mobile but supplied through Carphone Warehouse

Steps:

Downloaded: I9000XXJPY (single file) & 512.pit from Samfirmware (does this contain bootloader? If not, will it cause an issue in updating on Kies?)

Remove sim & memory card

Start phone in Download mode

Plug in USB

Open Odin v1.3

Select .tar file as PDA

Select 512.pit file

Re-Partition - Not Ticked

Auto Reboot & F.Reset Time - Ticked

Click Start

Wait for installation to complete and phone to restart

Hopefully i've provided all the info required, but if not, please post or PM me. If anyone could please check my steps above and let me know if i'm doing this correct or not before I go ahead.

Much appreciated
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yihinlau:
hi there,

as i know, to run a 2.3.3 rom on SGS , we need to flash a new bootloader right?

but what if i wanna roll back to 2.2.1? do i need to do somthing to re-install a bootloader for 2.2.1?

cuz in most tutor of installing a 2.2.1 rom did mention DO NOT touch the "Phone Bootloader Update" option of odin3

thanks.

It's always safer to flash via ADB or fastboot. The download is also available on Koush's site, FYI.

Anybody have this working on their phone yet?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imisky:
tested on my i9020a and doesnt work either for me anyone?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slobba:
Seems to work fine on mine.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imisky:
thats odd i tested it using the free version and the BLN test didnt even work. Tried calling a few times and missing the call as well as texting my phone and leaving the message unread and still nothing. Wonder if this is the case with only the rogers/fido/telus/bell i9020as as some of us had to root via the i9023 CWM recovery.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slobba:
Yeh, I got caught with the problems of flashing the i9020 CWM instead of the i9023 version but the BLN is working for me both with the free non-blinking test and pro blinking test.

The NSCollab ROM I'm using includes the latest Netarchy 1.3.0.3 CFS kernel. Maybe that's the reason it's working for me??
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imisky:
really thats interesting, the kernel i tested one was the 1.3.0.3 netarchy kernel i guess i'll have to test it using the paid version and see wat happens

edit: tested using the paid version and it seems like its the i9023 root method thats screwing things up a little.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KryPTiCk0d3:
That's what I was kinda wondering about the i9023 recovery, I guess that is what is doing it. I have the paid version of BLN as well, and it didn't make any difference.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imisky:
did a bit more testing and it seems that BLN does work, but only for SMS and not for missed called even with the LED notification on for missed called.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slobba:
Took mine back to 2.3.3 stock, installed Netarchy latest 1.3.0.3 kernel and now I'm getting the same behaviour: BLN test doesn't work, LED notification on missed calls not working but LED notification on new email is working.:confused:

Might try flashing the NSCollab ROM again to see what happens.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slobba:
Tried running fix permissions on the stock ROM but this didn't seem to fix BLN notifications.

Reflashed NSCollab ROM. Tested BLN and initially still not working but after a reboot it's all working properly again. :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imisky:
so it might just be a stock rom + BLN kernel issue has any of the kernel devs looked into this?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CraneGuy:
I tried it out a few hours ago on my 9020a with CM7 and the Trinity UV kernel and so far BLN free version works great, not that I have much use for it, never used it on my Galaxy s but will see.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themapleboy:
I too am having issues with it working on calls. emails/txts it works without fail.

EDIT:seems i found the issue. its the good old BFS choose a kernel that doesn't use it and it works fine. Seems bfs doesnt really like the 9020a's.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imisky:
im using it with netarchy 1.3.0.3 CFS so im not sure if the BFS is the sole cause of this
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chibsz:
Hi,

I'm just wondering if anyone got BLN working on the Jame Bond kernel ?

I've read in that thread that it supports Voodoo and BLN and I'm using the Sabai dee kernel but BLN doesn't seem to work for me ?

To be honest, I'm not too sure how to run the test. I click on it and it says press the power button to test it, which I do, but then my screen just turns off and nothing happens....am I doing something wrong ?

I also brought the pro version, and tried calling myself and sending myself an email and nothing happened.

Any suggestions ?

Cheers in advance
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmatrix13:
I'm running SupeAosp 6.2 Rom and BLN works perfectly for with, this includes missed calls and notifications. The Kernel that I'm using is 2.6.35.12-SuperAosp-S-1400. Apparently the next upgrade is going to be compiled with the UV which I am planning to test out as soon as its released. Furthermore as a bandage solution people can use NoLED without any mods at all, I found the app quite useful as I was not experienced enough to recompile with BLN included.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmatrix13:
I forgot to mention, I am using an i9020A.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ogdobber:
first of all make sure all your settings are correct in the bln app...

bln works for the 9020a, but I forget if the missed call works or not...everything else seems to. with that being said, the issues with stock and the missed call not working will be sorted shortly...when the 9023 gets working...its not the 9023 recovery causing the problem

I'm not saying I can't theme Facebook and the Market app for you but is time consuming and to be honest, I'm not into the whole RED thing BUT.....there's help after all! Check out this thread and contact the OP aka the guy that started the thread and see if he has a themed Facebook/Market app that you can borrow from him! If he doesn't have one, I'm sure that will properly be on his list of things to do for future updates to his theme! Oh and YES, the market and facebook app should work on a sense rom even though his theme is for CM7 (AOSP rom)!

In case anyone is interested, I just got this external battery charger today. It's made by Momax. The description says it's for the Omnia i908/i900 but those phones use the same battery as the Nexus S. It's dual voltage and comes with Type A (US), Type C (Europe), Type G (UK & South East Asia) and Type I (Australia/NZ) plug adapters so you can use it anywhere in the world.

I have one for my Nexus One also and have been using that one for the past year. I highly recommend it for anyone who would like to charge an extra battery without having to keep your phone plugged in.

I got it from this site:
