[Galaxy S I9000 General] fnakfhe:
This post is just to give you a heads up that you can not downgrade from JL2. if you can please tell me how you got it to work.

I just got my phone back from bell, they could not repair it, so i got a brand new phone.

The new phone had JH2 on it.

I installed kies and it automatically update it to JL2.

Before upgrading I forgot to do two things,

1) install CWR, jl2 uses 3e and not 2e and CWR does not work with 3e.

2) unlock the phone, the unlock method needs jh2 or less, as i know it you can not get the unlock code from a 2.2 froyo like JL2.

So i load up odin, (all versions 1.3 1.0 1.7) and try going back to jh2.

it does flash, but after on restart we can not boot the phone, it keeps boot looping on SAMSUNG screen. I even tried all the pit files and checking partition.

only download mode works. so i flashed back JL2. else my phone does not boot.

guys can we NOT downgrade back from jl2 on bell phone?

I am just thinking how bad this will be for the new phones that already have JL2 installed outta the box, and you if you can not downgrade how will new users with this phone be able to unlock the phone and install rom manager or a.k.a. Clockwork Recovery
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
Use odin and flash a kernel that has 2e or find a full rom that has the .sbl and boot file in it and flash that.

Petsonally I flashed JL2 with kies then flashed hardcores kernel found in the android section of the forums then been flashing custom roms from cwm im on darky's 7.7 right now with the jl2 modem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cyfawcett:
Same here...did it less than an hour ago.

1st I flashed the speed mod kernel, then installed Darkys 7.7 from the internal SD...working now so it can be done as I was on JL2 before.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] reflame:
Yes you can still install custom roms but you can never go back to previous samsung official software. So no JH2.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] fnakfhe:
I found jl2 rom with sbl.bin

but other versions of roms like jh2 and jg8 dont have the sbl.bin file in side, and if i just flash those roms anyways then after extract the sb.bin file from the jl2 rom and try flashing it alone it does not help.

so please tell me where can i get a bell rom for i9000m with sbl.bin file already there.

also you say to flash a boot file AND sbl.bin, what is a boot file? do you mean the sbl.bin is the boot file?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] fnakfhe:
where did you get the speed mod kernel.

please link me.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cloudrainstar:
http://www.multiupload.com/EZF1IEZ34H

That JH2 has SBL in it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
You can but you just need a JH2 that has the .sbl file in it like the one Cloudstrainer provided.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgkahn:
b.s. dont post information if you are clueless. you can easily go back to jh2 or any rom just install a kernel that doesnt have the locked boot loader

like bln kernel , cwm kernel or speedmod kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
Here is a link with instructions on how to install Hardcore's Kernel once this kernel is flashed on your phone you can go from JL2 to a custom 2.2 rom of your choice. DO NOT FLASH THIS KERNEL IF YOU ARE USING UGJH2 this is a 2.2, 2.2.1 Kernel ONLY.

http://touristinparadise.blogspot.com/2010/11/samsung-galaxy-s-how-to-install.html
[Galaxy S I9000 General] windraker:
JK4 and JL2 both had the new SBL in there. I was able to flash via kies the JH2(or 8, can't remember) at one point when it was still available.

What does this mean for rooting and other things? Are we able to root the phone or are they going to be locking down the phone so we can't do anything anymore? If they will lock it down I can just drop it in the toilet and get my insurance to get me a Nexus S >.>
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cbqfly:
thanx for the rom. was looking for a native rom so i could actually change between gsm and wcdma, and your rom fits the bill. hope you continue to update the rom, like more tweaks n stuff on your spare time
[Galaxy S I9000 General] #1RAGE:
Maybe someone mentioned this already but you can unlock with JL2. I used SGS Unlock Pro from the Android Market.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gemini8026:
Interestling enough, I CANNOT for the life of me recover after trying to downgrade to a different rom..

I got JL2 (locked) and I tried to unlock (no luck) so I tried a different rom (yes I know how to use ODIN) Ive tried 4 or 5 different ronms with different methods of flashing.

And no luck..

Tried the orig JL2 rom again, and Im stuck in a boot loop

not much fun!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] labellee25:
Mine is dead ather this same process

Hi , I did the same as you. I got my SGS rev 10.10 back from getting flashed by bell. They flashed JL2 in it and I wanted to try Darky's rom. I tried to go to JH2 first and the phone started to loop. So I tried flash it again and I lost download mode. I had to make the 301K usb jig to get the download mode back. I tried to flash back JL2 but that just killed the phone out right ... Now I have no screen at all. No messages or any sign of life. I called Bell and they will ship me a new one by mail in 5 Busness days.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] blue163:
I just got my replacement from bell, came with jl2 on it. I tried flashing jh2 onto it for three purposes of unlocking without any success. I had to go back to jl2 to get it booting again. In the ends I used the nv_data.bin modifying method of unlocking and it started working on rogers so I put the rom kitchen docrom on it, jpy, hardcore kernel and have been enjoying ever since. Hopefully this method of unlocking proves to be permanent :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
For those of you trying to downgrade to JH2 are you downloading the version that is linked in this thread and are you making sure Update Bootloader is checked in odin when flashing?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] moaraj:
I also tried to flash an older stock firmware, but now my SGS gets stuck on the logo and the three buttton recovery mode or download mode doesn't work. Holding the power down and home button on causes it to switch betweeen the log and the battery
[Galaxy S I9000 General] knightdaemon:
Can anyone confirm that flashing this through Odin to downgrade from JL2 works?

What settings in Odin? Repartition? PIT?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] foobar83:
Yes, I confirm the JH2 linked in the thread works to downgrade from JL2. I used Odin 1.7 and put the file in the PDA and select "flash bootloader". Nothing else, no PIT no repartition, nothing. You don't need root or anything special, just 3-button mode.

Every other firmware I used put me in an infinite boot loop, this one worked fine to downgrade.

I also upgraded back up to JL2 through kies w/o a problem after the downgrade.

Thanks anyway
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] domineus:
tested on dell venue pro it works fine
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] hounsell:
When I removed the check, and got it to carry past that error, it just crashed. HTC seem to do some device-specific stuff, even where it's not necessary. For example, the youtube app won't work because it doesn't use the WP7 networking API, HTC have used their own driver for network communication.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] domineus:
htc uses their own EVERYTHING

oy vey htc ridiculous! so its either perform a rom transplant that ansar has done or no go

maybe not...if we knew the callback files couldn't we ideally add them to the xap? but would it mean that overwrite would cause instability to non native htc devices

lemme see if I can contact ansar he would probably know the dependencies needed for htc related devices re callbacks and use
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] indiekiduk:
What does SFR.WiFi.xap do? In Reflector it looks rather emtpy.

Btw I believe you could have just removed the signature rather than resign. There used to be a util called UnSigner but don't know if it still works.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Yakkaimono:
Every time I sync with zune I have to reunlock my optimus 7 and have to reinstall the samsung apps cause after the sync they stop working.

Anybody found a solution to that yet?

I really like the now hub since there isn't anything like that on the E900 but if I have to install it few times a day I have to pass it.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] hounsell:
Putting your phone in Flight Mode whilst syncing will stop it relocking. Not ideal, but it's the best we've got.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josh995:
Ugh, I'm newly rooted, and I already messed things up.

I rooted a few days ago, ran cyanogen for a bit, loved it, but wanted to try fresh, then ava, then wanted to go back to cyanogen. I felt I wanted to 'start fresh' sorta. Like I had just rooted again. I like... lost 3G. it just keeps saying "turning on" and I think it may be from updating the radio. Because, I was flashing different roms without updating the radio, and everything was working perfectly. But then, like half an hour ago, I updated the radio to the latest version, 2.15.00.09.01, and things started acting up.

So, here's a rundown of what I did. I was running Fresh before I did all of this.

Formatted SD card so I could start from scratch.

Copied the latest cyanogen to SD card

Copied the latest gapps to SD card

Copied the latest radio to SD card. 2.15.00.09.01

Turn off phone and boot into recovery

Wipe cache, the other Dvichik or something cache, and wipe/factory reset

flashed the latest radio, then flashed Cyanogen, then flashed gapps.

it did its thing, and I turned on phone, and saw that I only had 1x coverage. So, I went back to recovery, did a nandroid backup of cyanogen, flashed fresh, started up, and went to update PRL to see if that would fix it. At first, It wouldn't update, and I went and saw that the "mobile network" was just saying "turning on". I restarted the phone, and then went to update PRL, and it did update, however, my data was soooooo slow. Now, the phone went back to the mobile network just "turning on"...... So right now I'm running fresh with basically no data connection. It didn't do any of this before I updated the radio. Before I updated the radio, I had 0 problems.

Soooooo, Yes, I am a HUGE noob. I know. I knowwwww.

What can/should I do?

Is it as simple as just downloading an older radio? I THINK before I updated, I had radio version 1.39.00.05.31...

Can I just go to recovery, wipe cache, and factory reset, flash the radio, then cyanogen, then gapps?

Should I unroot, and start all over again?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
I dont think that is the most recent radio. Where did you dl it from? What is your prl version? I flashed the most recent radio combo from calkulin recently, and my radio ends in .19(2.11.00.15.19). That combo included a new radio, wimax, and prl. Only use these updated radios with the most recent 3.70 software. So if I were you,i would try flashing the correct radio combo. Sorry,i dont have a link, but search calkulins posts/threads and surely you will find it . Hope that takes care of it for you!

I flashed the most recent ClockworkMod to my phone using ROM manager so I could do a ROM backup, and now my phone will not go into recovery mode. When I get into the boot menu and try to go into recovery, it goes into the splash screen and stays there.

Has anyone else had this happen with ClockworkMod 3.0.0.3? It took my phone quite a while to boot after that, and it put me into panic mode for a good moment. :(

I'll be flashing Amon_RA now to do my backup/ROM flashing. The latest updates to ClockworkMod keep doing crazy, crazy things to my poor EVO. Has anyone else experienced this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] montana111:

place the appropriate file on the root of the sdcard using a card reader and boot into HBOOT.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alfred F. Jones:
I got out of it by crossing my fingers and doing a battery pull, then booting normally. Thankfully it worked, so I had the chance to use ROM Manager to flash Amon_RA, but I can't guarantee it would work for everyone's.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] V1cmlb:
hope this helps some one I went to appmarket and romanager and uninstalled update then went to app to flash back to older version 2.5

I bought a Streak with 2.1 installed and the first 2.2 official rom that would load was a 318 EU rom. All is well but I wonder if there is a better rom that will help keep a consistent HSPA connection with Optus in Australia? Or is it just that Optus service is just particularly crappy?
[Streak 5 General] cheetah2k:
I've got the 318 EU rom (800 series) which was the default update when I got my DS.

To be honest, I own a number of phones (Galaxy S, Dell Streak & iPhone 4) and all of them have data issues on the Optus network in the outer suburbs (Wynnum/Manly Area). While the service is not as bad as Vodafone, its still not that good...
[Streak 5 General] gjlamb:
Thx. I was thinking that was the case. I live in the inner West of Sydney and my partner has 3g problems in Optus with the iPhone. I know the iPhone generally has poorer reception than most phones so thought I'd ask to see.

When the 850mhz WCDMA model hits I might think about swapping.
[Streak 5 General] cheetah2k:
Did you know that the Dell Streak is quad band 3G like the iphone? meaning it supports 850/900/1900/2100 mhz.

One phone to rule them all so as to speak :p So go get ya self a Telstra sim and enjoy!
[Streak 5 General] DMax99:
i have an O2 locked with steve's 1.5.1 + rebelsim 1.2 firmware. Internet works very well with Optus
[Streak 5 General] gjlamb:
Yeah I know it's quad band GSM but it's not quad WCDMA. It only has the 2 WCDMA bands that Optus and Voda uses. Not the 850MHz WCDMA for Telstra NextG. Therefore the best speed I think I'll get on Telstra is Edge.
[Streak 5 General] cheetah2k:
I disagree. If you enable the EMlist engineering menus, you can select 850Mhz WCDMA. I've also used a NextG sim in my phone and it works!
[Streak 5 General] gjlamb:
AFAIK you can't change your wcdma band to one the phone hasn't been built for. Wcdma bands are supported by the physical radio not firmware.

As said before, yes you can use a nextg sim in a phone that doesn't support 850mhz wcdma but you will only get 2g data.

Hi. I have same problem on LG Optimus One with Android 2.2.1 ... how you solve that?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zentsang:
So don't partition

From your brief description of "Solved" ... it sounds like you just grabbed another FAT32 formatted SD Card and just put it in. No partition setup. However from reading other posts on DarkTremor's apps2sd ... you MUST have an EXT3 formatted partition in addition to the FAT32 partition in order for apps2sd to function.

From my understanding, since the Android OS has no problems running apps from EXT2 and EXT3 partitions ... the trick is that the apps are actually moved to the FAT32 partition and shortcuts (a.k.a. links) are put on the EXT3 partitions. This tricks and Android OS into thinking the apps are installed on EXT3 and not FAT32.

Unless I am just totally missing how this works.
