I tried that method too. but, it doesn't work. Giving out the same error.

I am using the official firmware and there is no modification.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] Boldie90:
I tried this method, and despite all negative feedback, i succeed!

First I did the tutorial and afterwards I updated the PDA with my region!

Thanks a lot Chontipak!

P.S. I did this How-to. Afterwards I tested the phone, turned it off and used a downloaded PDA for my region. This time without pit, CSC and re-partition, just as said! Now my phone works like a charm without all the freezingstuff of JB!!!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] mutesperm:
Hey!... thanks for the feedback

I´d like to ask what version of odin did you use to update the PDA... 1.85 or 3.07 ??

Thanks!!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] Boldie90:
I used 1.85 and the 1.87 version. I didn't use 3.07 but it should work.

By the way, Gingerbread was freezing too, so now I brought my phone to the service center for Factory warranty!

Good luck!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] mutesperm:
Thanks!!... i´ll do the update... i hope that nothing bad happen... hehe.

Do you think the freezing problem is because of GB?...
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] Chriiistian:

I can use another "Rom" but with the same two files? The rom goes in the PDA option?

Hey guys,

I've upgraded my phone to JB some time ago via Odin, but now I want to go back to the stock GB that came with the phone when I bought it.

My original version was this one (screenshot taken from my sister's phone):

Now I have got this version:

I have downloaded the original FW from Sammobile earlier today. I want to know, can I install it as usual via Odin? Or should I get a specific Odin version or a specific FW in order to be able to downgrade my phone?

I want to downgrade it to GB to update it with the official update via Kies (hoping it will work smoother).

Can you guys help me?

Thank you!

I've done the update but the phone got stuck with the "Samsung Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070" logo. Does anyone have any advice? Thanks.

I've downloaded them time and again to make sure they aren't corrupt but I fail to downgrade. secondly, once I flash the latest GB thru Odin 3.07, I get stuck at Samsung logo without the option of getting into recovery. except that I can again get into download mode and reflash the previous JB. btw, what the hell do they put in HK firmwares. they are like leaches who can't let go of the fone. pls reply, coz I've posted enough hoping u wud answer but it seems my posts are invisible to others. regards and thanx in advance.

Has JB 4.1.2 been fixed?

A long time ago (shortly after the first JB upgrade came out) I upgraded to 4.1.2. Bad move. Was very slow and hung quite a lot. I successfully managed to downgraded back to 2.3.6 by (IIRC) following these instructions. My device works very well but I'd like some of the JB features.

Have Samsung/Google managed to improve 4.1.2 for this device or have they left it alone since ?

If I plug my phone in and fire up Kies I get

Current firmware version : PDA:LD1 / PHONE:LD1 / CSC:LD1 (XTC)

Latest firmware version : PDA:MD1 / PHONE:MD1 / CSC:MD3 (XTC)

Is this a decent update?

the error is can't mount SD card

or can't format factory reset neither can't clean cache and several other errors,

Please tell me a way to get my 16 GB mobile back,

When i used 16 GB pit file with the reset files of CSC & code one for 2.3.6 it fails in ODIN,

and when i do with official firmware of 4.1.2 it gives me USB storage damaged,

what's the way to do it?

Please tell me :)

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] TPD-21:
First of all you need to make sure is the type of your device. Of course, it is janice device with 16GB of storage. Certainly a file "FIT" is required to file a special FIT janice device with 16 GB of storage anyway. For that, you can see the thread here. Good luck
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] DaniShabbir:
Well, If you are flashin back to 2.3.6

You need to have 16 GB PIT file for 16 GB Mobile,

But It doesn't work :),

I have tried quite alot time :))

But If you have a SD card of 16 GB :)) it will do the work ,

Rest is all on yours users,
