I have. :( I went from JM8 + Voodoo --> JM8 Stock --> JPK. It booted and gave me a bunch of force closes so I went back to recovery to do a factory reset. From here on, it corrupted my internal SD Card. I can access Recovery Mode, Download Mode and flash any ROM I want but it'll load to the Galaxy S screen then black out with the menu and back button lights lit. And worst of all, I can't get a warranty repair cause I'm not from Canada.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
You need to 2 things for replacement.

1. Someone on Bell willing to get the repair done for you

2. The original sales receipt.

I may be willing to take care of number 1 if you have number 2. Just let me know.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SplitSnake:
hello guys,

I have the 850mhz problem too, i tried flashing JPK with the JH2 modem and csc, but when it tries to boot, it takes a while at the Galaxy flashing S then goes to a black screen and keeps vibrating every so often.

I then tried flashing JPK PDA modem and CSC, then just flashing JH2 modem and csc over it, but then that caused my phone not to boot and not even go into recovery, luckily download mode worked.

how can i flash the JH2 modem and csc? I could go fine with just the 1900mhz, but would love to have 850mhz back.

thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dawgpound6985:
You have PM.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BA_Flash_GOD:
Wow funny guess it's good I live in USA Then eh.. I have no problems at all, coming from JM8. I used all the JPK files and mine works just fine on 850 like every other rom i've tried. Gotta love AT&T! ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jentech:
Curious to know how you flashed. Which PIT did you use and did you re-partition?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TheChancellor:
What .pit file are you using?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SplitSnake:
i used the 512 pit. im running JPK using JPK modem and CSC just fine, just no 850 band.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TriC_101:
Odd google maps says I don't have a data connection ...... but I do... I can download apps and view webpages very odd

Edit...

Working now just upgraded maps to the latest version..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dawgpound6985:
I believe I used .512 because people were recommending it. And yes, I believe I hit repartition because I wanted to make sure the Voodoo Lagfix was gone even though I went back to a stock JM8 kernel. It booted once, I got to see Froyo running but then I decided to wipe the settings in recovery to get rid of the force closes I was getting.

There has to be a way to reformat the internal SDCard somehow. Weren't the Captivate users experiencing the same issue and they fixed it with the one click Odin? Couldn't something like that be adapted for the Bell Vibrants?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hatdrawn:
Hey,

I did all jpk and 512. Worked all last night. Today I just randomly rebooted and not I only get a black screen after boot. I can get into recovery and download.

What's wrong? What should I do?

Any way I can just flash to basically out of the box?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] quaff:
Sorry guys, but could someone enlighten me?

You guys are talking about JPK and the 850 band not working properly on Bell's I9000M, correct?

I updated my CSC, Modem when I flashed JPK, and I can use 850 band no problem (swapping to GSM only mode in Mobile Network settings). What's the problem here? I must be missing something..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TriC_101:
Ya I used everything that came with the JPK package and my 850mhz is working as well. BTW the GPS with this rom is really fast.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hatdrawn:
Yeah. Same story as you guys. Until ... Advanced Task Killer Froyo Beta starting acting weird so I decided to reboot my phone. Now, it goes to black screen after the S logo loads.

Going to try re-flashing with 803 pit
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TriC_101:
I have already rooted my JPK with out issue.. just follow the how to guide. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=790686

I'm using Advance Task Killer Free with no issues at all.... I flashed with the 512pit.. not one bug with this rom so far.. been up and running for 24hours and no lag and I have installed about 50+ apps.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hatdrawn:
I followed that guide word for word.

Hmm. Maybe it was just a one time bug.

I'm trying 803 only because that's what samfirwares list as the pit
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hatdrawn:
So did you get your phone working again after the black screen issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SplitSnake:
yup, my phone is working just fine, running rooted JPK. but no 850mhz. I would love to get 850 since 1900 is weak in certain areas.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
There are 2 850MHZ bands, GSM and WCDMA. If you were on Bell only, GSM isn't an option as Bell does not support GSM. What everyone is referring to is the WCDMA 850MHZ Band. Which does not work with JPK unless you install the CSC and Modem from UGJH2...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] quaff:
Okay, weird problem. After changing to "GSM Only" mode, and reverting to "GSM/WCDMA (auto mode)" I am constantly connected to EDGE. I tried downgrading my baseband to JH2, but still a no go on 3G. Anyone else get this problem? (If you like 3G, you might not want to test this)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hatdrawn:
What did you do to get it working again? What did you flash? I've tried flashing jpk a couple times now. Just because it's what I have. Each time it hasn't worked.

What do I need to do?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TriC_101:
Not ture at all I'm using the the JPK package and Modems. and if type in *#0011# you can see it switch between 850mhz and 1900mhz... 850mhz Band 5 and 1900mhz Band 2...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] quaff:
Hmm, well I'm with Rogers, so that explains why I could switch to GSM fine. However, I can't go back to WCDMA even if I select WCDMA Only. I tried reflashing the CSC and Modem to JH2, then back to JPK, no luck either way :/ Gonna have to attempt a full restore later
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
What I said is the issue a lot of people are having. If you're not, good for you. But most are....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Redth:
I can't get data working on 850mhz even though by all things I can see, it should be working... I've got BMC to install fine several times, tried many combinations of flashing, nothing's working.

I guess it's possible my provider is down in the area.. I'm going to try JPH which I had working nicely to see if it works still.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
it's exactly what Electroz said.

you might try to go into the service menue mode and force it to use WCDMA 850 and WCDMA 1900

see if that works
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TheChancellor:
Well, as posted in another thread, I was having problems with launcher pro. I thought it was an isolated incident where I might have done something beforehand to make the phone suddenly go haywire like that. Turns out I was wrong. There's a specific setting in Launcher pro that causes the phone to freeze, and then continuosly vibrate until it eventually just crashes. This happened to me twice while using launcher pro, immediately after restarting it to apply my settings. Everything else seemed to work fine.

This has become a bit of a deal breaker for me. I already paid for Launcher Pro and I find Touchwiz to be boring and inconvenient. I doubt this comptability issue will be addressed at all, let alone be fixed. So I'm going to flash back to another rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
If you cannot get it to work, my instructions here are proven to fix the issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] YG007:
Same happens for me since day one. I always had 850MHz Band 5 no matter what firmware I was using. It doesnt show up in the service menu, but under *#0011# it does, and I have made calls/used internet, etc while on 850MHz Band 5. Also tested under places where the only reception is 850MHz 3G (underground parking garages, elevators, etc) and it works totally fine.

For everyone who thinks their 850MHz 3G doesn't work, you can't force it into 850 WCDMA mode, that won't work. You'll have to use automatic mode, and even when 900MHz is selected under that, the 850MHz 3G will work.

... and just from my experience, if both 850MHz 3G and 1900MHz 3G are available, the phone prefers the 1900MHz 3G band. This could be why people are complaining that they are not getting 850MHz 3G (that and since the service menu has 850MHz not selected and 900MHz selected [but that is really a hardware thing since the HW supports 850 and not 900, and not SW]), when they actually are. You just have to be in a situation where you can only get 850MHz 3G, and the phone will switch to it! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
Have you tried ADWLauncher? I prefer it over Launcher Pro.....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
Not the case, I live in an area with ONLY 850MHZ WCDMA as i'm on Bell.... When this problem happened to me, I was just not getting any service. This is a real issue that you have not experienced. Myself and many other have, however, had this problem. My instructions here fix the issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] YG007:
If thats the case, then my bad. I'm using the phone with Rogers (unlocked) and it is all working for me... 3G and 2G wise, but I'm sure its the 850MHz 3G thats working for me and not 2G since I see 850MHz band 5 on *#0011# and it is displaying 3G and H on the data icon instead of G[PRS] or E[DGE]. Thats odd that the phone would behave differently based on carrier (sim card??).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
I don't think the carrier has anything to do with it. Some of the people with the issue are on/have been on rogers. From what I can tell it's a completely random issue. When it happened to me, the 850MHZ band worked after the initial Froyo flash for about an hour, and then I lost service on the 850MHZ band out of nowhere. It was weird. It took me several hours of reflashing and trying different things to finally figure out how to get it working by installing UGJG8 and doing the CSC select....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TriC_101:
Same thing i'm seeing.. now I can get it to switch to WCDMA 850mhz by going into the back room where I live.... 1900mhz will not work in that room.. It works on 850mhz in that room and it shows it switch from WCDMA 1900 Band 2 to WCDMA 850 Band 5. if I keep the service menu open *#0011#

BTW i'm on bells network
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
Well, good for you. You're not one of us that have had this issue. Just keep it in mind if it does pop up....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] quaff:
Actually I never had a problem with 850mhz as I'm not on Bell, but I did follow this and it fixed my issue, just had to choose automatic again.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TriC_101:
I'm going to keep this ROM till they release 2.2 for the i9000m. This ROM is great.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
Awesome! Much simpler than flashing back to UGJG8, but I did try that exact method when I was having the issue myself and it would not work :( Just try restarting the phone, If you're having the problem I think you're having, you're going to need to do that on every restart unless you flash the UGJH2 Modem and CSC...

As I said a few posts back, I don't think the carrier has anything to do with the issue I'm referring to. (Have seen people on AT&T, Rogers and Bell have the issue)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Redth:
Thanks, I have tried that... however I just learned that a few people around me can't make calls on the rogers network here right now, so it sounds like this could be just horrible timing for me and that the network here is down :) I tried the stock firmware and it didn't work either, so either i got hardware problems, or 3G network is down...

I'm flashing back to JPK and hoping it works when the network comes up again!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] quaff:
Just to clarify, what's the difference between 850 on GSM and 850 on WCDMA? I'm assuming 850 on WCDMA is more superior, I could be wrong though.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jentech:
This is scaring the crap out of me, since I bricked my phone on JPH.

Ok, just so I am clear. I am currenty on JH2, rooted with OCLF.

If I uninstall OCLF, I should then try flashing JPK PDA only with 512 PIT and no repartition, wipe and reboot??
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
GSM = Edge = 2G

WCDMA = HSDPA = 3/3.5G
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TriC_101:
double post..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] quaff:
Ah, that makes more sense now. So 850 WCDMA would mean 3G on a lower band. Gotcha.

I bumped into this post, not sure if anyone has tried it yet, but it won't hurt to give it a go.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cloudrainstar:
I believe recovery 3e in JPH and JPK has the option to reformat the internal SDCard... Not sure if that'll help your problem though.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jentech:
@clouldrainstar, I followed your instructions on page 2 and flashed just the PDA. It's working but my CSC shows 'unknown' under *#1234#. Does that matter??
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cloudrainstar:
Without the CSC, you won't have bell settings or bell applications. If you want those back, you'll want to downgrade recovery to 2e first, then flash CSC, then you should have them back.. if you don't see the bell apps after you reboot, you can use the "adb shell" with "am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.android.Preconfig/com.android.Preconfig.Preconfig" and reinstall BMC after you flashed the CSC. Keep in mind that this will do a factory reset on your phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dwathey:
Would you flash the CSC via odin once you've downgraded recovery to 2e?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cyfawcett:
I'm getting the wcdma 850 band for Fido as I have 3G, but the phone thinks I'm roaming. Checked with Fido today and I'm not incurring any roaming charges so w00t w00t, Ima stick with this ROM (JPK) for the time being. Battery life seems better and I had no issues with rooting and restoring my apps.

Official 2.2 Frozen Yogurt is going to be amazing!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cloudrainstar:
Yep. Alternatively, you can follow the instructions at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=787163 for CSC without Odin
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jentech:
Ok, I still have Bell APN but didn't have apps. I've installed DocRomMods' Superslim so it's got rid of everything anyway. My recovery shows <2e> currently. So I can just flash CSC? No PIT?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cloudrainstar:
Yeah, just the CSC will work. Just remember it'll do a factory reset when installing CSC.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jentech:
That's not a problem, haven't reloaded anything. Thanks for your help.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] wyild1:
Has anyone on SASKTEL tried this? I know Bell and Slacktel are close to the same, but just curious if anyone in Saskatchewan has tried this and their service is ok.

I'm itchin to flash something! i mean flash something on my phone :P I have had this a month and my first flash experience well i had to revert back lol. Waiting for CM or Froyo from Samsung is taking forever!!

Cheers!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TriC_101:
I will likely have to flash the JH2 CSC when the official update comes out for bell so I can download it via KIES.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] wang1chung:
i guess with that hardware problem last night, they lost the last few posts.........

anyways, my battery draining issue has been fixed by loading the jpk modem/csc.......as well, in the service menu i have the 850 wcdma and gsm selected (i did have to manually select the wcdma one).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jentech:
Yes, fixed mine by installing all 3 JPK files and then going back and re-flashing the JH2 CSC. Only dropped 8% last night instead of 60.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] 2000impreza:
I flashed all three JPK files as well. Didn't bother with the JH2 CSC. Seems to be working fine so far.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bellkingsway:
Alrighty... Kinda new to this, if I'm honest it's a bit overwhelming.

I flashed the phone twice, once with the 803, second time with the 512.

From what I can tell they were both done with the same file xxJPK. With both of them service is cutting in and out, It's stable for 5 minutes at most then I get no service, then phone restores, then data.

I punched in one of those codes and noticed that the 850 band is not showing up.

I just downloaded the two files (modem/csc), but I'm a bit confused whether I should apply it or not.

Some guidance would be appreciated :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] canad1an:
Anyone else with Signal Strength 0 dB?

I just flashed by Bell i9000M that I've unlocked and am using on Rogers with XXJPK, rooted with CF-root and (for now) lagfixed with RyanZA v2.1.2. I flashed from UGJH2 to XXJPK with PDA/.512 pit only, leaving the MODEM and CSC as JH2.

I have 3G on 850 and 1900 (depending where in my house I am :confused:), can make calls, receive texts, etc. Phone works great.

Only issue I noted is that under Phone Status, my Signal Strength is listed as 0dB, even though I'll have 3 or 4 bars on the top?

Anyone else notice this?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TriC_101:
Thats because you used the JH2 radio.. if you use the JPK radio it will show up.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] canad1an:
Thanks. I was reluctant to use the JPK radio given others' experience of losing 850. Where I am, I'm on 850 more than 1900, so I couldn't afford to lose it, otherwise how could I abuse Rogers' 6GB plan?? ;) Cheers!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tylerham:
So, if on Bell, will the JPK MODEM work if we just use the UGJH2 CSC? 850 MHz and all?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ysandhu:
Does anybody know .. how can i go back to UGJH2 completely . I know the location of CSC and Modem file.. where to find PDA and pit file.

I want it in a way that if new update come i can use Kies.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Redth:
I too had used both the CSC and MODEM from JPH2 with the PDA for JPK. I was seeing 0 signal in the phone info as well.

I just flashed only the JPK MODEM (512 pit, but with re-partition UNchecked so I'm not sure if it even uses the pit file then, but whatever), and it looks like I still have 850mhz just fine (although my location right now uses 1900, so I'll see for sure when I go home, but under *#2263# it shows 850 as enabled), and now my signal strength does indeed show up :)

So I guess I just wanted to confirm that this should work, as it worked for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Redth:
Sam firmware has it on their site. You need a free account, but it's under the I9000 section, listed as I9000UGJH2

This is usually the goto place for firmwares :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] donkeyhitman:
...and all you have to do is put the dowloaded .tar file in PDA. It's PDA/Modem/CSC all in one.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bellkingsway:
For now I'm going back to UGJH2, but if someone does have any ideas for a fix that would be great, the phone run much better on 2.2, I just don't have data :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ysandhu:
So do to use re-partition and pit file in ODIN as well while flashing this PDA file
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TheChancellor:
I've had my share of issues running JPK, but I'm on my third time trying it now and flashed it a different way. Doing this way seemed to cause the least issues, as I haven't ran into any problems... yet. My advice to those having data and reception issues would be to flash all original JPK files {PDA, MODEM, AND CSC} first. Once that's done, root the phone. I prefer Chainfire's method for JPK. This root will allow you to shift back to Recovery 2e. The default is 3e on this firmware, which has a few restrictions. After that, flash the JH2 CSC file "only" through Odin. Once your phone auto-reboots, it'll update itself through recovery and then you're done.

Flashing the CSC made everything work right away. I've been using this phone regularly and the battery life has been fantastic, and this firmware seemed to solve one MAJOR issue I had where the phone would be unable to wake up from sleep mode and I would have to restart. Hasn't happened once on Froyo.

Yes.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Idan73:
For Those on rogers theres really no reason to use anything related to bell. Use everything jpk and you'll be fine. 850 can also be manually selected in service menu in combi bands. Bell csc intentionally disables voice search and leaves voice dial. Remember to put apn manually. Bell users you can use jpk modem and just bell csc same thing applies for 850, if you want crap bell apps and too lazy to input apn manually. Fido users, no need for bell csc for reasons specified above. Might want to use bell modem only cause it does not show fido s roaming on rogers as jpk does. Otherwise if not annoyed by roaming signal just use jpk. 850 and 1900 I'd working just fine on jpk modem although you might have to manually enable 850 in service menu as I said above and it really is better to use jpk for froyo.

Ps.sadly I'm with fido so using jh2 modem with fido csc (my own edit still polishing it, removed bell crapware, voice search intact, fido apn's preloaded) will post soon either as files and folders to be copied over via root manager or via odin. Either way your phone will be reset. Kept ident same as bell for kies.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Redth:
My experience with 850 was that if I did NOT have the BMC CSC, I had issues trying to get 850 working consistently. Selecting it in the *#2263# menu under combi bands sometimes didn't work at all, and if it did, didn't stay that way long for whatever reason. So, I use the JPH2 CSC and I don't have problems...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Idan73:
Ok I will be the first to admit that different phones can react differently to jpk modem thereby losing 850 frequency but come on csc has nothing to do with bands selection.not even one reference to 850 or bands in general.

Jph2 does not exist.maybe you mean jh2?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Redth:
Yeah sorry meant jh2.

Anyways I find with jpk csc my phone goes to KOR code and I lose 850 and can't switch back to BMC anymore. Just having KOR seems to always disable my 850 and while sometimes I can make it selected in combi bands that as I mentioned has not been reliable for me.

I just remove the bell apps after rooting. No big deal.

Next firmware ill try with out the jh2 csc again.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TheChancellor:
I strongly recommend you guys flash back to a 2.1 firmware. Bell users especially. My internal SD card just got fried by some random shut down after everything seemed to be ok. I'm one of many Bell Galaxy users that had this happened to them.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
Check out This Thread.

The poll is showing so far you have just as high, if not a higher chance of losing the internal SD without Froyo as you do with it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] canad1an:
That's good to hear. I just had to re-flash my phone as the combo of XXJPK(PDA)/UGJH2(MODEM)/UGJH2(CSC)/CF-Rootv1.1/OCLFv2.1.2 crashed the phone after installing Android Terminal Emulator. So many FC's couldn't run any program. I figure it was OCLF that did it in, so this time I'm leaving it out. I think I'll leave the JH2 modem for now until an official Froyo comes out. If I have to reflash again, I'll try JPK PDA & MODEM.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] madmack:
If you guys are flashing the JPK files for PDA/PHONE/CSC, what pit file did you use ? and did you re-partition ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TriC_101:
512.. and re-partition.. and the rom works great. the battery life is not so good.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] wyild1:
Morning! I flashed the JPK plus docs mod rom superslim and i love it. Way faster than 2.1

Does anyone else have problems with the market? I can search and i can say download but it takes like 5 min to start the download. One time i had 5 apps qued up for 10 min and then i turned on my wireless and bam.. They downloaded.
