Unfortunately, Kies says "Device's not supported". I'll wait to see, if this will be fixed, before I try not official stuff.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seagryphon:
Kies kind of sucks and is not very stable but when it works it works okay... If you are on stock rom and can't upgrade to jk4 try upgrading Kies, but not from Kies itself, redownload it from Samsung directly.

Sent from my GT-I9000M
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hansonator:
I read on here that you need to turn off your anti virus to update kies within the app. I tried that and it worked. Before it would just keep giving network error.

Just remember to turn it back on. I left mine off for a few days. :D Not a big deal for me but some people can't get past google. Com without it. :P
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ranchero76:
I have no antivirus, everything works in Kies, but when I click "Upgrade" it

shows model information (JH2) and ""This device's version cannot be supported". Will try on another computer.

Update: Just installed Kies on another computer - exactly same thing...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dannyphones:
even if you use the patcher there is no way for bell to know you used it. It will not increase your chance of frying your sd card.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ranchero76:
I don't care about Bell - the phone is second hand, so there's no warranty. I just a little affraid to fry the $400 phone :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JohnBravo:
Woohoo!

I used the method posted here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=853950 (which if you want to use kies links to here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=835628) and everything worked great; I was able to update to froyo!

Thanks XDA!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ranchero76:
Yessss! Used registry patcher and Kies, code BMC (Bell Canada), worked perfectly!!! I have Froyo now, didn't loose any data or installed programs!!! Thanks so much!!!

I upgraded to 2.2 using Kies and now my GPS won't get a fix at all!! (it was working fine before). Anybody else had this issue? Any fixes?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ranchero76:
My GPS works as before (without using network support it takes quite a while to get current position - few minutes)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] billypg:
Not getting a GPS fix at all here. Doesn't matter how long i wait.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MrCeddy:
How did you update to JH2? Did you ever try another rom and revert back ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ranchero76:
I don't know, I bought it used :) Never touched anything, I don't think it's rooted etc :)

Works great now on official Froyo, no complains :) I don't see the reason for hacking it for now :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] border43:
I have upgraded to GJK4 through Kies.

So far, I am loving it, but I am having some problems.

I installed Angry Birds, and it is working fine. It is always in the app drawer. The problem is that when I put a short cut on the home screen, and then I power off the phone, the app icon is no longer on the home screen. It only happens with Angry Birds. I also see that Angry Birds installed directly to the SD card without me asking it to.

Maybe this has something to do with the problem???

Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mad2x:
Same thing happend to me on jk3 for a couple of games that installed to sd. I just used app2sd to move it back onto the phone memory and now it doesn't disappear anymore.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] border43:
So it is a known bug then hey?

And I discovered that it is not only the app2sd games.

My SIM Toolkit icon will not stay on my home screens when I turn the phone on and off as well. And it is not stored on the SD card.

It makes me sad that we waited so long for a product to be released, and we still are not provided with quality.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] wickedsun:
That's probably because the home screen starts before the SD card is mounted. Which would make sense.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] trdcameleon:
I had the same problem. I did a factory reset and wipe cache and everything is fine now. I'm on jk3, z4root,z4mod and with launcher pro. I don't know if it's the factory reset or the cache wipe that resolve my problem..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mr.galaxys:
dont mean change subject but noticed few of you on this thread are with BELL ....looking around threads solve my problem i tried z4root on my updated jk4 bell sgs phone but no luck ...anyway i can root my phone on update froyo ugk4 to possibly unlock it ???

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] trader37:
Wish it worked for me...i've got the dreaded SD issue. I bought it from someone who bought it outright from Wireless wave inside a costco. I've got the reciepts but it's unlocked and I was running it on Fido. I don't have a bell account...I hope they warranty it for me :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] drddx66:
Hello!

I used Kies to upgrade to Froyo 2.2, have build JK4, and have lost root. Also have Android recovery 3rd edition which doesn't allow unsigned 'update.zip' files on the internal card to be run.

How might I get back to JK3??

Thanks.

Bell Vibrant SGS I9000M, bought unlocked, once rooted and once using Clockwork Recovery, now with a phone that works fine with the factory reset, but no root:(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ekinskofer:
hey guys, awesome thread first off, going to hopefully take the plunge and flash tomorrow. I'm wondering a couple things:

1. I purchased a used phone, with xxjpk (euro) from craigs a month ago. I'm wondering if reflashing to ugjk3 will be alright?

2. I noticed in the instructions that repartition is off. Is this for stock devices? Should I repartition for ugjk3 using odin if I have another flashed rom on my i9000m?

thanks and sorry if these are stupid questions. I'm still not quite there yet in terms of knowing what to do if something messes up, i.e. factory reset so any forum links for this as well would also be appreciated.

thanks

Eric
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ekinskofer:
additional thought, do I need to flash to JH2 prior to ugjk3? I guess I should have asked if there is a specific upgrade path to this? many thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seeARMS:
Why are you flashing a Canadian based rom? Flash XXJPY, which is currently the latest firmware (2.2.1), and it's euro, so that's a bonus. Also, never repartition unless you have a complete ROM with everything (modem, CSC, etc) included.

Don't flash UGJK3. Flash either the new JL2 firmware by Bell or if you have a non-Bell phone flash something like XXJPY.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ekinskofer:
my mistake, too many rum and eggnogs last night.. I have xxjpk rom on my bell i9000m.. however, I'm running this on the rogers network.

so I should go JL2 you think? what have the reports been on this? I'm a little nervous after reading all the jk4 reports.

thanks for your help seeArms. I'll search, however, do you have any howtos for the JL2 flashing or is it the same as this thread instructions? cheers. Eric
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seeARMS:
Heh, no worries. Yeah, I'd definitely upgrade to JL2 if I were you. I believe Bell has stated this fixed the internal SD card problem, so I wouldn't take any chances and run a different firmware. (I was running my XXJPY ROM on my phone and it died.)

It'll be the same. You can either upgrade it through Kies or just download + flash the firmware using Odin. I'd recommend using Kies though, because that's the official way and I doubt any problems would arise.

I'm actually gonna be creating a custom ROM based on JL2 (soon as I get my phone back...) so that'll be much easier to install and generally better than the stock ROM.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] got_milk:
1. Install the latest Kies

2. Plug in phone

3. Download and install JL2

4. Forget JK3 even exists

Seriously, why JK3? I ran JK3, JK4 and now JL2 (official) and JL2 is the smoothest of the bunch.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ekinskofer:
sweet thanks for the replies guys. Roger that, JL2. Just wondering is there a list of the latest releases, feature improvements, and say stability level.. i.e. # of complaints/issues. I'm trying to figure out how most people know whats going on.. :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ekinskofer:
hey trying to install JL2 here with kies.. sorry total newb..says the following:

model name:GT-I9000

current version: PDA:JPK / PHONE: JPK /CSC: JPK

This devices version cannot be updated.

do I need to do the kies registry hack first? would ODIN be the better route?

thanks,

Eric
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
Registry hack or use odin and flash jl2.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
Are you serious about kies thing lol I think JK4 proved it was not odin or cwm corrupting the sd cards.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seeARMS:
I didn't mean corrupting the cards. I believe Odin is known to give a very small percentage of failures which are unpreventable. Might as well use the actual software provided by Samsung than use a different tool.

Help with I9000M

Can anyone confirm it this will work for me or not.....

I have a Bell Gt I9000M and i upgraded to froyo using kies.. however a friend told me that there are too many issues with it... so i tried going back to Eclair and tried flashing JH2 (Downloaded from samfirmwares) using odin.... it installed and when i turn on the phone the GTi9000M screen keeps falshing... so i went back and using Odin flashed UGJL2 (from samfirmware) and it is working.. however i dont know for how long.. i dont want my sd card to fail.... I am not sure when to check the partition option using Odin... also, currently when i connect to kies it wont recognize my phone...

Please please any help is appreciated

Hello.... I have a question.. :)

I'm running on darky's ROM with a CF root and ClockWork Mod Recovery. I want to sell my phone and want to get back to stock froyo ( Good as new in other words). Can I flash this version with ODIN without bricking?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gtg2:
Jk3 is about as stable as any other stable stock firmware. That's good. However, it doesn't make your sd card any less likely to die.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] droilfade:
Do I need to do anything different since my phone is totally customized? or just download the file and flashing with ODIN will be good enough and revert it back to original?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Videonut:
I think you could use kies registry patcher and install jl2 with it. I don't think that jk3 was ever an official release so why not give the phone the most current software version
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gtg2:
Great point and good idea - my mind misplaced that fact on my original post.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kilianos2:
I'd like to do this as well. Currently downloading jk3 to flash my Bell SGS Vibrant but would like to load the official one. Can you suggest what to make the settings for Kies Registry Patcher (enable spoof=true, I assume) then what about the "Spoof product code as" and "Spoof software revision as" to get it to go to jl2.

Thanks!

Does anyone have the 2.2.1 rom for the Gt-i9000m to download
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mk_ln:
is it actually officially out now?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gtg2:
There is no official 2.2.1 for the i9000m. I believe you can use the Kies reg hack to get the lastest 2.2.1 (international) on your phone. Otherwise, try one of the roms available in the dev threads. Personally, I love Doc's JPY on my phone - check out http://romkitchen.org/sgs/?s=home

Touch key FW Update

My phone is a GT-I9000M

Okay, so I made the jump to Darky's, and everything was working fine. I didn't read the forum and did the *#2663# and took the "Touch key FW Update' option. This changed my touch FW as follows

The Phone's FW Version is 0x02

The Part's FW Version is 0x0.

I have followed the procedures and re-flashed to Firmware 2.2, Baseband I9000UGJL2. The phone is working except for the Back and Menu Keys.

I then use the *#2663# code and take the "Touch key FW Update", the icon comes up saying its updating, and the circle spins, but it never updates. It stays in that spinning mode until you reboot the phone. I waited 1 hour before I did that.

So, my questions.

1- Does this update go to the internet to get files, or does it use files on the internal SD?

2- If this update uses the internet can it be done from WIFI, i tried WIFI and Bell.

3- Has anyone had this issue, and what can be done to resolve it.

With out the Parts update, the back and menu keys just light, but will not work.

Thanks

Gary
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Skud51:
I did the same thing back before JL2 was available. I think I was running one of Doc's 2.2 ROMs when the 9000m was still on JH2. I flashed back to JH2 via odin and did re-did the button firmware update. It fixed the issue and has been fine ever since..

About a week ago my brother did the same thing.. He was running stock JL2 with the speedmod kernel, so that tells me the touch button firmware is related with the kernel. He flashes back to stock JL2, re-did the touch button firmware and then it started working again.. Now he's on Doc's 9.3 (I am too) and it's working great!

Only thing I can suggest is to make sure you have th stock kernel for JL2 and do a factory reset..

[Galaxy S I9000 General] pacostrano:
Hi all,

Small question for you guys

Is there a way to install CWM after flashing this ROM.

The rom works great and it's rooted but can't install CWM because of the recovery 3e.

Paco
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SaneinOne:
Look in the Development section and flash a 2e enabled kernel using Odin/Heimdall.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
Yea im using the version you linked to in the first post. Do you run it in XP compatibility mode? Just tryed it again , it says Odin communicator has stopped working in an error window that pops up as soon as I hit start.

Nope.. I just run it as a normal program.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AvatarReborn:

Happened to me and resolved as follows:

Odim 1.7

pit 512

mark, re-partition

mark, clear phone EFS

mark, update bootloader Phone

put the phone to download

push button start

ready to live again

battery life is fine for me on jpo, any other reasons to switch to jk3?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Felixpau86:
Biggest reason is you want 850mhz band.

JPO, most people lost 850. With this modem youll get 850 back.

Ive missed 850....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] stevenca:
Jumped on this rom tonight , 850 band is working 100% here as well . What do you reccommend for a lagfix on this rom ? I find it a bit slow going through applications screens right from fresh install , a lagfix should fix that
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nightmare56:
im getting 850 on jpo :)

i guess ill wait till dec 15 for the kies update.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
Alright finally got Odin working, just flashed this rom over top of Spike speedy rom O.C 3.0. After flashing my phone was vibrating and TW forced closed on me, I did a factory reset and now everything is normal again. First boot took 2-3 minutes as well to get past the animation screen.

Biggest reason I flashed is cause of waranty if my SD dies my intial boot screen says i9000M and not i9000 so theres no way for them to tell I flashed leaked firmware if the SD is dead. I would like as little hastle as possible.

Anyway 850 working perfect did not have to mess with any settings and such to get it working, WiFi is working, GPS is working(not sure if its improved or not).

Now onto rooting...

Has anyone used handcent with this jk3? with jpo Handcent doesn't lasunch from the message dock icon like it did with jh2 and yes it is set to default in the applications settings. I hate the native message app, but I can live with it in jpo just so I can use the bluetooth headset dialer.

So far I'm pleased with froyo. It seems to have fixed low reception freeze issue. However I can't seem to get it to connect to Kies now, and since I did a factory rest I don't have my contacts on the phone. What's a quick fix for this issue? Kies tries to connect but never does.

Edit: I got it sorted, just needed to restart
[Galaxy S I9000 General] stere0xide:
Would it be possible to put a tutorial on the best way to flash this unto a jh2 phone?

I know of various combination people use with odin, but I'm still pretty new to this and every thread seems to have different steps for the same process.. (like whether or not to select re-partition) I'm usually diligent on reading up on How-to's and I'd like to prevent from asking redundant question but yeah can you guys help me out please?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lotacus:
Do not check repartition. You should only repartition if the included firmware has the database.efs file, if you repartion without this file in the rom, you will run into problems.

Just flash only the code as you always would without a pit without a csc and without repartition. You should be fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ragin:
You can put a note about root & a link to z4root on the 1st post.

Edit: disregard the bloatware question, I see it does.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ragin:
Hi,

Try this. Put the phone in download mode, select the pit file, check re-partition, DONT select any other file. Flash.

Once the flash finishes & you see Pass in green color in Odin, Remove battery, reinsert it, again put the phone in download mode, select all other files needed like PDA, MODEM and CSC, DONT select any pit file, keep re-partition unchecked. Flash.

Hope it solves your problem.

I know. Does not have to be right away as long as it happens.I'm still on your rom so can not help cause I'm really busy till monday evening possibly tuesday. flashing this yourself provided you have time shouldn't kill your phone, just might temporarily disable your 900 band that most of europe except one provider in england does not even use (unless it changed in the last 6 months) or you can flash with euro modem file.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dm-digital:
This ROM is performing very well for me. It's a little quicker then JH2 giving the phone an overall better feel. I've been loading it down with apps and I haven't experienced any lag. If this ROM continues to perform like this then it will live up to my expectations.

The only issue I have run into has been the occasional FC on Market when dl'ing several apps at the same time while searching for more. Under normal market use I haven't run into any problems.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pr0cs:
Oh it showed up in the menus but the phone would never select it. With the modem from JK3 it finally selects and uses it.
