Or can i follow the steps just like in first page, and after it`s all done i put my original ROM with Odin 3.07 or 1.85?

Wich method would be the safest one and recommended?

I followed tutorial from first page, and after that flashed stock ROM with Odin 3.07

[Other problems]

First I flashed JB (russian) because I had some problems with my phone. On Gingerbread if "use packet data" was enabled I could not receive calls or sms. If "use packet data" was disabled calls and sms worked.

I installed JB, and everything was ok for a few days...when I had same problems again.

Did anybody experienced this problems?

I`m thinking that if this problem occured on Gingerbread, and again on JellyBean, probable cause must be something hardware.

Downgrade Procedure from JB to GB

Dear Shut_Down,

I have upgraded my SGSA to JB today, and I feel very much happy with this update. Now, I came to know that the official JB update is coming to our county(India) at the end of this month.

So, If I want to downgrade from JB to GB, after following the method from this thread, should I do a factory reset and wipe cache, like we did in JB?

Also, once downgraded, will we be able to update the official JB for our country through KIES and\or OTA or flashing the country specific official stock JB through ODIN again is the only option?

Thank you for your help and patience in answering all my noob questions...:confused: Since I love this masterpiece very much, I don't want to brick it in anyway....:fingers-crossed:

You want to go to GB now? If no, then wait for release of JB for your country and just flash it with Odin over Russian JB.

Working solution for 16GB

First Flash using the Procedure described here, DONOT change the pit to 16G one as your phone will get bricked (Happened to mine) googled for a way to get it to download mode......

Once you are succesfully on GingerBread your internal storage should show as 3.xx GB. remove your SD card (just in case) and flash ONLY the 16G pit file using odin 1.85 or 3.07 then after reboot just format USB storage. (I followed this procedure before claiming warranty and got my phone repaired for free !! ;))

---------- Post added at 07:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:34 AM ----------

I had the same network problem, Had lost my IMEI number. Just reset binary counter and revert back to GB (will not increase binary counter) and also do a factory reset (to wipe all data) and claim warranty (just act dumb) they will replace your motherboard for free if you are under warranty !!!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] gomolj:
Everything went well except the CSC problem that i have. Let me explain, I downgraded beacuse flashing an update from other country voids your warranty, so blah blah and I said i will wait litle bit longer and get the official update from my carrier. Anyways the problem is beacuse the trace that something was done on the software level is the CSC file, as it say MULTI whenever you enter the recovery and also I can not updete via kies beacuse of that. ( In the program it sees my phone, but when it goes to download mode it says it doesn't recognize my phone. Same goes for the OTA upadate as it says something about a checksume error and aborts the instalation)

Maybe im wrong (yes I am :p), but from where can i get the carrier CSC file? Or is my "problem" related to something else?

Oh yes before i forget, why is my recovery in red now, but before on JB it was blue? (the text - apply update, wipe, etc. ..)

Im kinda lost. Please help a n00b out of this mess :)

Do you need to flash the CSC file? If you don't, thats o.k, but if you must be warned.

The CSC contains this items: XSK, XEZ, XEO, XEH, XEE, VVT, VOM, VIM, VDH, VDC, TWO, TSR TPH, TMT, TMS, TCL, SMO, ROM, PHE, PAN, ORS, ORG, NEE, MSR, MKO, GBL, EUR, ERO, DNF, CYO, COS, BGL, AUT, ATL, AMN.

You can get to this info like this; open the dail pad and type in \ *#272*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX#, the XXX... represents your IMEI (*#06#) /, to get this code to work I had to flash my phone with a open ROM as it has not worked on my branded.

The funny part is that this file does not contain MOT and when I flash my carriers first rom, the phone will not update thru OTA neither over KIES, ( on the latest availible update) as it does not see my phone in download mode, but it downloads the latest firmware.

So the big question still remains. How can I get this CSC_GT-I9070-XXXXXMOT file to flash with ODIN. Can I flash this again as in the OP post and just exclude CSC and add just the PIT and the ROM. Will this work and delete the MULTI CSC?
