i can answer that question for you.. look at the date of when he made this post and the dates of Darky's releases... he was using the "lastest" rom at the time he made the post =]
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mtzylplyk:
:p thx
[Galaxy S I9000 General] galaxyluv:
He made the post recently? Jan 2011?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cripez:
he made that post in january 17... its now feb 02.

darky released the 9.1 on jan 23rd... before that it was still the 8.0

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
The SAFEST way to Flash Darky's or any Custom rom would be this order.

1. Flash JL2 , the new .SBL (Secondary Boot Loader) included with JL2 is believed to fix the dreaded internel SD death's that so many of us had.

2.Download latest Darky's Rom and make a folder on your phone name it what ever you want and put the rom in there, you can also leave the rom in downloads if you downloaded it directly to the phone.

3. Flash Hardcores Kernel with ODIN.

4.Boot device into CWM recovery, Root device it's in the advance options.

5. Install Darky's rom , using Install zip from SD method in CWM recovery.

6.done.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cripez:
if my phone is still with me (currently being thrown around by samsung)

this is the method I would use as well. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] haloimplant:
Yes this is roughly the method I used. I was nervous but it was pretty easy.

From JL2 stock you basically just need to Odin flash hardcore's kernel and then you can install whatever compatible .zip(s) you want in recovery mode (as well as root or apply tweaks).

I did a doc rom first and since I have updated the kernel and downgraded wifi drivers. No random force closes yet at all, the new board (and JL2 sbl) have my 10.08 unit running flawlessly so far.

Trying not to go too flash crazy. Although some would say to do the opposite and see if the phone will die under warranty, I think the hardware is fine but don't want the pain of trying to recover from messed up flash. So I'm waiting for a significant release before flashing a whole new base.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shadoslayer:
I just flashed darkys 902 rom and using darkys config picked speedmod (I dont like voodoo). Worked good, but had to flash JL2 modem to get 850 back. I usually run the JL2 modem anyway, just because it seems to give me the best battery life and good GPS.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Rashar:
Hello...just trying to get an understanding before I proceed.

1. I will be receiving a new handset from Samsung. If it already has JL2 with a newer date, do I still need to flash SBL or do the latest phones come out with a fixed SBL?

2. Ok.

3. On these particular Bell phones, is HardCores kernel the best choice or basically install what ever kernel I want to get a feel of what I like?

4. CWM, is it just a different interface or program similiar to stock recovery mode?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] evilution:
Ok, I bought a Bell phone, wanting to use on Rogers, but I didn't realize the severity of this internal sdcard problem.

I'm glad JL2 seems to fix the issue. Currently I'm running Eclair, 2.1.

So 1), Install JL2 as instructed here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=853950

3) Install hardcore kernel here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=822756

4) Install Darky's rom here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=814091

2 Questions:

A) won't running Darky's rom ALSO install SpeedMod's kernel? (and an option for voodoo)? So I can essentially skip step 3? Is there a reason why I'd want to use ODIN?

B)And won't installing Darky's rom Also over write the modem in JL2, thus making unsafe for internal sd again?

(Or does JL2 refer to more than just the modem).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] adamge:
I thought Bell and Rogers use different frequencies, so the phones can't be crossed over.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] evilution:
No, They work fine. Used the Bell Motorola Milestone on Fido for a couple months before changing.

Bell SIM cards can also run on unlocked rogers phones.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] evilution:
I think I found my own answers:

A)Once you flash to JL2, you cannot flash CWM reboot recovery.. JL2 runs 3e recovery, but CWM uses 2e.. You'll get an error trying to apply update.zip..

You must use odin to change the kernel. I don't think it matters if you use voodoo or supermod.

B) Darky's rom actually changes the modem and you lose 850. If you want it again, take the JL2.tar file and delete everything except modem.bin.. More details here: http://cloudrainstar.blogspot.com/2010/12/xxjpy-darkys-70-ugjl2-modem-bmcjl2-csc.html
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Rashar:
Thanks for that info. I did not know Darky 's would remove 850 band. It really pays to read through this information thoroughly before proceeding.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] LegendDroid:
Thanks for this guys I was stressing to the max trying to figure out what to do for my Canadian Bell phone. This worked AWESOME!!!

Can't believe how nice Darky's Rom is.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Rashar:
Glad to know you got it working...

Did you have to re-flash jl2 to get band 850?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] LegendDroid:
Yea Rasher I did.

I was getting so brain fried I was trying to flash with ODIN while the phone was still on the home screen....

I finally remembered to put it back into download mode and flashed the JL2 modem back in.

WOW and WOW I can't believe how fast the GPS is.

It was non-existant for me on the stock UGJL2

Thanks again guys

Oh just incase anyone else reads this and forgot to do that, in order to use your phone in BC you will most likely need to do this guys first part of his tutorial on flashing the JL2 MODEM.bin after Darky's ROM.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] cantwin:
This thread has made be a bit confused.

If i have a Bell phone, on the rogers network. What do i need to do? If i flash darky's rom and it gets rid of the 850 band, does that matter?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] B-1P:
Works

Hey all .. I just did this.. and it works... at least so far..hers what i did

I was on stock JL2. the latest stock rom

on my phone, I downloaded an installed the sgs kernel flasher and the speedmod kernel(the latest one).

installed the speedmod kernel

rebooted into clockwork recovery

installed the darkys rom from there.

didnt even have to care about the modem and all...

I just have one more wish. the boot logo shows i9000 instead of i9000m... is there any way i could change it back ?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mynamismike:
Okay I have a start similar. I installed the sgs kernel flasher, but I got the voodoo lagfix kernel instead of speedmod and installed that. Do you know if it would be safe to use clockwork recovery or ROM Manager to flash Darky with voodoo installed? Also I'm not sure how to tell if I'm JL2. In the premium section of ROM Manager there is a DarkyROM you can download. Ideally I would like to download that from ROM Manager and flash that way. With voodoo installed can I do that?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jay321:
Just wanted to kno if im missin out on some good apps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AbsolutZeroGI:
Battery Monitor Widget (free)= gives you up to the minute updates on how much power your phone is using (or getting, if you're charging). The widget tells you your battery life and clicking on it gives you several options on viewing exactly how fast your battery is draining.

Subsonic (one time donation of ~$10) = my favorite app ever, it sets up your computer as a server your phone can access so that you can play EVERY song you own without having to load it to your phone. I sold my iPod after getting this because, hey, I don't need it anymore. My 32GB iPod Touch is nothing compared to streaming all 300+GB of music I own. Audio Galaxy has a free version but if you haven't been keeping up with your id3 tags, you're screwed.

If you don't like the sense news widget you can get feedr. Not sure how much it costs though, it's a nice alternative and works very well. They do basically the same thing except feedr gives you more options and it's easier to find the rss feeds you want to subscribe to.

Other than that, I just use sense widgets. Hope this helps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jay321:
Yea thanks alot im a look into the subsonic app it sounds pretty interesting
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nashianei:
Not all of these are FREE, but look into them anyways.

Customization

Launcher Pro/ADW Launcher - These replace your launcher, or homescreen. They allow you to change a lot of the way the phone looks.

Widget Locker - This replaces your lockscreen, allowing you to change that like a homescreen. You can use custom unlock bars and even add widgets to your lockscreen.

Widgets

SwitchPro - This is my most used widget, its a transparent bar that allows you to turn on/off system settings. I use it for my 3G/4G Radios, Wifi, Bluetooth, and a quick button to turn my phone on vibrate and mute my media.

System Info Widget - If you look at screen-shots around here, you'll run into this widget. It monitors your Battery, Temperature, RAM, Disk Space, and free space on your SD card. Its a handy tool to check how much space you really have.

SMS Unread - This gives you an icon for Email, Messages and Phone that has a little bubble to show if you have new Email/Text/Calls. I keep it on my lockscreen, since my notification bar is hidden.

Applications

APK Installer - Install APK's downloaded from the internet. As you spend more time on XDA you'll find a ton of custom APK's, free programs, and beta releases.

Titanium Backup - This is the MUST have APP if your going to be trying new ROMS, it backs up your apps and data so you don't have to go through the tedious task of reinstalling them all.

AdFree - Removes Ad's from your phone. First thing I install personally.

Lookout - Mobile security, find your phone if lost through GPS, Wipe your phone remotely, backup all your data, and scans for malicious APK's.

Apps are a funny thing though, It's half about functionality, and half about what suits you personally. So I'd recommend you dig into the market and check out XDA to find the apps that you can't live without.

I haven't used it in a while but I preferred Mecanto over Subsonic because it is free and actually loads your music onto their servers so you dont have to leave your computer on to listen to your tunes.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Genjinaro:
MIQLive - Cloud management app (http://miqlive.com/tour)

Dropbox - Cloud Storage

Handcent SMS - A great SMS application
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oblivior72:
I used Subsonic for sometime the only that really got to me was the fact that you had to keep your computer on all the time if you wanted access to your music library.

I recently discover Mecanto, it's free and it stores all of your music on their servers, meaning you can pull it up anytime anywhere without your computer having to be on. It's truly amazing! Many people havent heard about it but they are doing a great job. I'm not sure how long it is going to last free, so if I were you I would get it ASAP. It doesnt have all the tweaks as subsonic but the music is streamed in CD quality and it's fine.

As far as other must have apps...

Handscent

Wireless Tether

Pulse - Amazing news reader and very easily customizable

AdFree - blocks ads...lots of debate about this one...

Dolphin Browser

Dropbox - Probably the God of all other apps

Epistle - Takes notes on your phones and automatically syncs with your dropbox! I use this all the time!

Folder Organizer - If you use folders this is the app to have!

Sportacular - to keep up with sports, sends you realtime updates

Music Junk - stream and download music for free!

TV Show Stream - Watch tv shows free on your phone

Where's My Droid - God this comes in handy all the time

Zedge - download millions of ringtones and wallpapers

Wordfeud - it's scrabble, play with friends or

[Vibrant General] ckelvin87:
So, I've recently bought a new vibrant and at first I was able to download some apps after booting, after a few minutes though I can't seem to download anything anymore, the downloads start and the download notification appears on top then dissapears after a second. Hope someone can help. I've tried everything, I've cleared all the cache/data(from checked in service, gtalk, market, etc...), signed out and logged into gtalk, uninstalled market update. I also tried doing a factory reset and even reflashed the rom back to JFD from JI6 but the problem still occurs, after I either hard reset or flash it to stock it works for a few minutes, from 5-30 minutes before the problem occurs again wherein it'd either stay at starting download or the download icon will appear at the notification bar, then dissapear after 1 second. It's been driving me crazy for over a week!

Hope someone has a solution.

Thanks!
[Vibrant General] chikin:
This happens to me at times, but after clearing the market apk cache I'm able to download apps properly. Try to clear it a few times before deciding to reinstall the apk. Also, speaking from experience, I dont think that flashing different roms would help too much. Every time i flashed a rom the same problem came back and i would have to do the whole "clear cache" thing over again.
[Vibrant General] ckelvin87:
hi, thanks for the help. I've already tried clearing the market cache and other apps but it still doesn't work. I've read of a new market app version 2.2.11, I tried downloading it to the phone and installing it but the phone says something like "error parsing package".
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lifear:
im using my phone to sync the contacts with Google, since Windows Live doesnt support contact pictures and has some other little issues. But after syncing Google to Outlook, it seems, that there are some bugs with the address fields of a contact. Since Google API 3.0 there is a structuredAddress field feature avalaible, so that all the parts if a address will go in the right order (Street, City, ZIPCode...).

I think the sync with WP7 to Google does not use this structuredAddress format, because the address comes sometimne with weird results to Outlook. Does anyone know what syncing mechanism WP7 will be used? Are im wrong? or is this a bug?

Sounds like it may be time to make yourself a jig. Have you tried pulling the battery and putting it back in, then holding vol up and vol down when plugging in the usb cable?
[Captivate General] k2snowboards88:
If you haven't already, try taking the battery sim card and memory card out. Put only the battery back in. Start odin. plug the usb cable into your computer. Press and hold just the volume up and down keys. Insert the usb cable into the phone. Does that get you into download mode? If not, then do a youtube search for "galaxy s usb jig". It will take a little work, but you will get your phone working again.
[Captivate General] LiliaKrause:
I've tried all that except plugging in the USB while holding the volume keys. I'll have to give it shot. If not, I'll look in to that jig. Never knew what that was until now. Guess I've just been lucky, I haven't needed to know.
