F.A.Q.

Q: I'm requesting x or y provider/country's ROM version to restore my phone's original state

A: In case You have a specific request, please post your PCODE from *2767*4387264636# and full version info from dialer *#1234# of your original ROM version. If you don't have this (already left original ROM) , then ask someone who has the same device with same provider/country! Check availability on http://fus.nanzen.se If you're smart enough, you can download the FUS file, then convert it by SplitFUS2.

If converting is difficult to you, then post it here or PM me.

Withoout PCODE and full HIDSWVER I can't help you!

plan B for finding original HIDSWVER

If you have Kies installed, and connected your phone with the original firmware, you have good chance to find it in Windows registry:

Start regedit.exe and check under the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\DeviceDB...

there should be some numbered sub-keys, eg 1, 2, 3, etc...

Under the numbered keys, look for "HIDSWVER" It has the following format:

I9100XWKI4/I9100OXXKI2/I9100XXKI1/I9100XWKI4

Notice the ProductCode key at the same page, it's useful to search for FUS packages at http://fus.nanzen.se

Q: Flashing any firmware to my phone will erase the network lock?

A: NO. The network (or SIM) lock still remain active. By flashing firmware you can't deactivate the lock. It's stored elsewhere.

Q: Flashing an operator specific firmware will restrict my open phone to that operator's network?

A: NO. Your phone still remain open for any SIM. Operator specific builds usually containing "only" bloatwares, wallpapers and/or browser settings, etc...

Q: Is it possible to update the PDA or MODEM only

A: Yes, You can update any one component independently if you have a good reason for, but remember: recommended to have consistent components

Q: Where is the bootloader tar and pit file?

A: those are not used for a Kies like update. You can find totoro*.pit and bootloader in other S5360 firmware bundles, and use if you really need it, but not necessarily needed for flashing

Q: Do I need to tick repartition?

A: NO! Leave all check-boxes as default!

Q: Really??? Do not tick repartition?

A: REALLY, I told You! Leave it unticked!!! ...And leave bootloader empty as well! COPY THAT?!?!?!

Q: Will Odin increase my custom bin counter flashing these packs?

A: No. Custom bin counter increased in case, when you flash non-stock firmware. Bundles provided here are all stock files.

Q: Wipe vs Non wipe packs?

A: Wipe pack has been build including an empty userdata partition, that way flashing a wipe pack will erase your user data.

Usually wipe packs has less issues after flashing, that way as of 10th of April I've decided to post here wipe packs only.

Q: I've got no issues in the past with non wipe packs. I want to flash new firmwares by having my data untouched. Can I modify wipe pack to non wipe pack?

A: Yes: Rename PDA*.tar.md5 to *.tar, then remove the userdata.img file! Don't forget to backup, because non wipe packs sometimes leads you to boot loop, and the solution is wipe data/cache.
