[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] anonymusneo:
Thanks a lot , first it semi broke my friends fone with odin ,

then complete brick with heimdall , ****ed up method >_>

and yes i know where abouts how to fix it , i earlier did my fone with richtofen ..

*do not try heimdall * it completely bricks

while with odin you have a chance of semi brick
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Benjamin Dobell:
That's a bold claim to make when all tests have indicated that Heimdall is by far safer than using Odin. I'm yet to see Heimdall brick a users phone when used correctly. Only cases I've heard of are when users flash firmware not designed for their device or do something like flash a primary bootloader to their secondary bootloader etc.

Especially when you're talking about the GT-I9000 Heimdall is extremely stable. It's the device I develop with and has been tested thousands of times on several different hardware systems across numerous operating systems.

Rather than make pointless claims that don't help anyone could you please copy and paste the exact command you used. Or if you used Heimdall Frontend could you please describe in detail the exact steps you followed. After all, unlike Odin, because Heimdall is open-source community software it can be improved!

Worked with Austrian Branding SGS (Drei.at) on JM1 original.

Flashed the fix and then 2.3.4 Gingerreal.

Everything worked fine.

Thanks a lot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dan_Aykroyd:
Hi! I've read around that the new Gingergerbread ROMs include a bootloader and *might* (some say it did) fix the 3 button combos by itself.

Do you Razvang, or anyone else, know something about this?

Thanks! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dan_Aykroyd:
Well... it might help somebody else. I've updated with Kies to JV6 and it fixed the 3 button combo! Awesome! :p

I only have the file for the Odin method. Used it before on my old s1 as well as for friends. Worked great. BUT as xda attachments dont accept md5 files I took it off the end so before using make sure you rename the file and add .md5 to the end of the file name.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RazvanG:
They COULD integrate this FiX, but they WON'T !!

Reason 1: This FiX is NOT intended for all users.

How do I put the file into internal memory? With Kies? Do i have to root the phone before applying patch? Should I install some other drivers if Kies works good?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RazvanG:
No root (since u'r from Romania) .. just connect the phone in Mass Storage Mode and copy/paste the .zip file to the Internal Memory Card.

Rename it to: Update.zip and follow the tutorial from that step onward.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alecxr:

I get to the stage where the phone reboots but i cant choose apply sdcard:update.zip, I try to click it with my finger but it doesnt click...

LE: Nevermind, I'm stupid :) It works with Volume Down key :) ( I figured it myself :P )

Now it doesn't even boot on this logo.

Perhaps is there a way to totally discharge it ?

I've been to a shop with the special cable i think ( an official modified one ?? they are agreed by samsung ) and they were not able to boot it.

I think orange will change mine ( it's one day old ... )

Exactly the same thing, it seems that totally bricks the phone.

But i think the technical centre can't see it's a flashed phone due to its state ...

3 button works just fine for my Galaxy s bought from Orange Romania

Metoda ta a mers perfect RazvanG, la galaxy s cumparat de la Orange Romania (product code ORO), eu fiind un profano-afono-habarnamist in android.

Intrebarea mea este daca pot folosi acum RYANZA OCLF LAG FIX ? (pana acum nu puteam intra in recovery mode).

Aplicarea fixului tau afecteaza in vreun fel viitorul update prin KIES la Froyo 2.2 care va fi disponibil si in Romania ?. Din cunostintele tale acest update la froyo 2.2 -prin kies- are in vedere si rescrierea bootloaderului (adica are si un bugfix oficial pentru telefoanele care nu intrau in recovery mode) ?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RazvanG:
Da, dupa ce ai urmat tutorialul, poti folosi orice lagfix fara probleme.

In alta ordine de idei, 2.2-ul oficial oferit prin Kies nu include un bootloader deci poti face update-ul in siguranta, bootloader-ul secundar scris acum, ramanand neafcetat.

Telefon mort

Salut Razvan !

Telefonul e luat de la Orange Romania acum 3 saptamani ( JM1 )

Duminica 07 nov m-a mancat si am facut update la Froyo JPA cu Kies manarit in registri !

Totul a fost OK .

Am vrut sa pun Vodoo lagfix si am verificat mai intai daca pot sa intru in recovery mode sa aplic asta. Nefunctionand combinatia 3 butoane am ajuns la pagina ta de pe blog. Am aplicat metoda ta de pe site.

Telefonul a repornit , am aplicat update.zip exact cum era acolo si-a facut ce era de facut , nu mi-a dat nici un mesaj de eroare , si la repornire nu a mai miscat nimic. Nu se aprinde nici ecran, nici leduri nimic nimic. Inainte, cand il bagam in priza ( inchis fiind ) aparea o baterie care se incarca pe ecran; nici aia nu apare ! E ca si cum nu ar avea baterie in el ! Am incercat faza cu bateria scoasa, cu pornire vreo varianta de 3 butoane, tinut power apasat o groaza, am ajuns chiar la faza cu acea mufa usb cu rezistor de 301k ! . Nu misca ! Stii vreo varianta ? Daca il duc in service o sa isi dea seama ca am incercat sa il manaresc ?

Seems from the last few posts on here (including the guy above who's got a Romanian Orange phone), this fix is far from "safe" and "110%" sure.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rrobertos2004:
o mica nelamurire pentru razvang

Inainte de e efectua o donatie PAYPAL am cateva nelamuriri in legatura cu functionarea acestui fix.

Dupa cum stii sunt unul din fericitii care a aplicat cu succes acest 3 butoane fix pe telefonul achizitionat de la Samsung Galaxy S. Totusi vad ca sunt unii la care aplicarea acest fix nu a functionat rezultand telefon mort-bricked. Avand cunostinte avansate de android ne-ai putea explica si noua profanilor mai pe inteles motivul pentru care acest fix al tau functioneaza numai in unele cazuri ?

Deasemeni nu-mi este clar daca acest lot de SGS vandute de Orange in romania are sau nu are Primitive Boot Loader. Pe wordpress la un moment dat scrii "Surpriza neplacuta a fost sa aflam ca acestui nou telefon ii lipseste Primitive Bootloader-ul si de aceea nu poate accesa Download Mode-ul prin metode obisnuite" in timp ce pe pagina 1 a acestui topic scrii " well .. it uses redbend to self-flash a proper SBL, compatible with the Primitive one found on e-fused or U3 phones."

Deci practic care este adevarul: combinatia 3 butoane a fost intentionat dezactivata sau este un bug al samsung? Acel SBL il genereaza automat telefonul sau este un *working* SBL extras dintr-un working 3 butoane SGS si aplicat celorlalte SGS cu 3 butoane dezactivate?

Poate ai un pic de ragaz si ne explici cum ti-a picat fisa cu acest fix inaintea altora care se dau mari si tari in android si pasii pe care ii face fixul tau.

Multumesc anticipat
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RazvanG:
The disclaimer/warning is there (1st post) since 4th of November :-/
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RazvanG:
In primul rand, iti multumesc pentru interesul acordat acestui fix.

"adevarul" asa cum vrei tu sa-i spui, este undeva acolo .. in sensul ca: noile loturi samsung (vandute si de catre Orange Romania) au venit din fabrica ca mai apoi sa fie resoftate (din cate am inteles din sursele mele) cu JM1 de catre operator. Acest firmware (in forma lui initiala) contine un bootloader *locked* (nefiind un release _low) ceea ce impiedica utilizatorul final sa acceseze download mode si/sau recovery prin metoda "clasica" (3-button combo).

metoda explicata aici, inlocuieste SBL-ul cu unul functional extras dintr-un telefon care din fabrica a venit cu optiunile respective active.

din pacate, bootloader-ul secundar pe care eu il propun pentru rescriere, nu este compatibil cu unele primare mai vechi (cat de vechi, asta incerc sa aflu) care inca se mai regasesc in unele terminale - inca ma uit prin dump-urile extrase dintr-un Galaxy S din franta care "a murit" dupa update, ca sa-mi dau seama ce nu a mers bine si unde e problema.. totusi, aici exista alte 3 aspecte de care tin cont:

1. nu mai am galaxy pe care sa testez

2. facultate in curs = timp zero

3. viata privata/iubita

in caz ca te intrebi de ce pur si simplu, nu le rescriu pe amandoua (folosind o combinatie de bootloader-e compatibila) prin update.zip (folosindu-ma de functia lui interna de rescriere) afla ca telefonul nu poate reprograma ambele fise simultan.

sper ca te-am lamurit.

daca mai ai intrebari, te rog sa folosesti blog-ul meu cu incredere (fiind in romana, ca si intrebarea adresata de tine) deoarece forumul acesta nu este chiar romanian-friendly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rrobertos2004:
reply

Thanks for your quick reply.

So your saying that my phone left the factory with working 3bttn but after Orange Romania flashed JM1 firmware, the SBL was replaced with the non working 3bbttn SBL but which was still compatible with factory PBL?

I have a late night theory, very hard to follow:

My guess is that there are at least two PBL older one-faulty and new one and two SBL (working 3bttn/non working 3bttn)

old PBL+non working 3bttn SBL=ok

new PBL+non working 3bttn SBL=ok

new PBL+working 3bttn SBL=ok

old PBL+working 3bttn SBL=brick

We observe that new PBL works fine with both SBL and old PBL is not working at all with 3bttn enabled SBL. So, if you follow my thoughts, it seems that working 3bttn SBL is somehow newer than non working 3bttn SBL version (it's a fact that new software is backward compatible). It figures that when still on production line, old PBL (or maybe faulty one)+working 3bttn SBL bricked phones were dumped. But the old PBL+non working 3bttn SBL phones, since testing was ok, managed to get to market.

Samsung observed high rate of dumped phones becouse of faulty PBL flashing (maybe something was wrong with the hardware that flash the PBL ROM or maybe the ROM chips were delivered to the factory flashed randomly wrong) and addressed this issue (flashed PBL as it meant to be flashed). Resulted new(addressed) PBL+working 3bttn SBL ok phones.

So, Samsung, at first fix 3bttn issue and then realizing that too much control over the phone hardware/software was done, change his mind (as we all know Samsung does that -push back releases, pull back firmware etc) and disabled again 3bttn(reverted back). You see now, even with new firmware releases (froyo) Samsung doesn't want or can't fix the 3bttn issue and lag. Too confident that all kies updates will go so smooth, that entering recovery mode is not necessary.

As a conclusion personaly i don't think that phones with poorly flashed PBL (old one) will ever work with this fix (SBL taken from 3bttn enabled phones)

I think that only solution is to re flash both PBL and SBL on these phones.

Do you think that flashing JM1 included flashing low level PBL/SBL?
