[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
OK im going to help u out sorry bout my previous statement i was just n a really bad mood and then trying to find some posts on xda and just going though the bs stuff had me more adijated...

OK step one prep

Make sure on the sd card Root folder no where else you have

update.zip

can be gotten out of krylons cwm final thread

also get the recovery file out of that thread just in case you have a kd1 without a fixed recovery file.

blackice stable on your sd card

U will also need odin i found actually odin 1.85 to be the best out of them for flashing but older ones work as well to just my personal prefrence for flashing on windows when i have ot use it.

You will also need a kd 1 rom to flash to thats flashable by odin i recommend whitehawks kd1

now that you have all that time to get black ice installed you ready :P

load up odin make sure you have your kd1 zip file in the pda section on odin

put your phone in download mode vol up vol down (pressed and held) insert usb...

IF THAT DOES NOT WORK

Vol Down pressed and hold and hit power button

IF ^^^^^^^^^ IS HOW YOU get to download mode stop there means your on gingerbread bootloader.

GO back and use the bible in this thread use my gb recooked rom thread first post there i linked a kc1 that has the Sbl and boot file thats not a i9000 and is not a gb bootloader .

These steps are only for if you have the gingerbread bootloader

download and extract my kc1 rom

in ODIN

Pitt = Hawk_Sidekick_VibrantPlus_831.pitt

pda = T959VUVKC1-REV00-ALL-low-CL933594.tar.md5

phone = T959VUVKC1-Phone-CL932707.tar.md5

CSC= SGH-T959V-CSC-TMB.tar.md5

Make sure RE PARTITION IS CHECKED

FLASH

wait for odin to do its business let the phone reboot and boot up once

This rom isnt rooted its just used to get gb bootloaders off the damm phone

Once done power off phone

After that go back and see first step put phone back in download mode and Flash with a KD1 that has root or just super one click root it after your choice.

Flash KD1

let phone reboot then power down make sure your sd card is in the phone reboot into recovery with

vol up vol down Pressed and held and power button that will boot bdn

install from update

if you get signature verificaton failed you have a kd 1 without the modified recovery bin

download file expert and or root explorer off the market at this point and do this

root explorer or adb push the Recovery file to /system/bin

DO NOT delete the current one there, or rename any files.

Just overwrite it.

Once done reboot phone and then go back to recovery mode and install from update

this will boot you into cwm orange

vv CHECK YOUR MOUNTS vv

cache /UNMOUNT

sdcard /MOUNT

data /MOUNT

system /UNMOUNT

^^CHECK YOUR MOUNTS^^

ONCE you verify that

back out install from sd card

scroll down to black ice and install rom

once the rom is installed back out of cwm orange and IN CWM HIT REBOOT PHONE

this will reboot the phone derp

derp derp

boots into cwm red!!!!

at this point theres 2 option u can do the voodoo lag fix from there or not Honestly on the first time i let linda say voodoo lag fix is disabled and just go back and convert it after :P

reboot phone your personal choice there to do the lag fix first and or after

Your phone should now speak to you and say converting data partition converting system bla bla bla

once booted enjoy go back and apply voodoo lag fix if u wish

if you get system not found

or just sits there like a bump on log

reflash back to kd 1 with odin

repeat steps but while ur doing that stick the bali 2.1 kernel on the sd card on your phone

after you install black ice

install the bali 2.1 kernel and then reboot

that will not convert once u get the system up and running go back and reflash 3.1 or 3.2

Hope this helps u all
