step done wrong in downlod mode fix please help

hello, sorry if im writing this in the wrong place. was doing the 3 button download mode fix and i accidently selected the md5 file into the "Phone" instead of putting it in PDA. no i got no network and sim is undected. please help

no when i check firmware, in the phone i got this
phone:unknown

anyone please?
i have now:
pda - I9000BUJM5
PHONE - unknown
CSC - I9000GTCLJM4

I think that you have to reflash again...and no mistakes this time

thanks
reflash with a rom?can it be a custom one or have to be offcial?
i have reflashed it already only with the md5 in the pda
no i have to flash it with a complete rom through odin?thanks

Depends on what you want: A stable eclair rom like jm9 or the latest froyo rom that was released today.Anyways you have to flash with odin and its only one tar file that you must put in the pda part. Some roms here at xda come with 3 files,pda,phone and csc.In that case all you have to do its to put in their places.good luck

Original firmware?

I bought a Samsung GT-I5800 without simlock. I flashed an Android 2.2 ROM, but now I want to go back to the original 2.1 to be able to update using Kies. What firmware do I have to download for this? I forgot to write down the original firmware version. Thanks in advance!

u cant downgrade via kies...! :-/
Look fr stock SG3 eclair rom at samfirmware..

I did, but none were accepted by Kies. I think it's because every CSC-version is different from the original one. I need I5800XENJH1, but I cannot find it anywhere. Does anyone know where to find it?

You need to find someone who has it and then ask for backup

You should flash your original firmware by using ODIN, not KIES. Go to samfirmware, and find firmware appropriate for your region and/or provider, and then flash it with ODIN.

How can i backup my original firmware? Is there an application for this? Thank you!

[Q] Not able to upgrade firmware with Kies

Hi All,
I'm new GT-i5800 owner and have mangaged to flash my phone with ODIN
so its using I5800XXJPQ.tar.
And now Kies ver.2.0.2.11071_128, States that this is not upgradeable.
If there afix for this problem so Kies will upgrade my phone.
I have searched for some time on this site and on the web for a solution, and sadly I've not found a solution.
Can any tell me if the is a fix for this and what I need to do to correct this problem.
Many Thanks

Is the XXJPQ version you flashed a deodexed one? because if it is Samsung Kies will probably don't recognize the phone/firmware en therefore it can't find a new update.
Flashing with odin is much reliable than with Samsung kies so just search on this forum for the last firmware or a custom rom en flash it with odin

Yes flash with odin

Hi,
Thanks for the rapid replies.
I would still like to use Kies to update my phone.
Does this mean there isn't a fix?
If not what is the latest firmware I can update it with using Odin?
And where do I get it from?
Thanks

you could try to flash one of the stock roms in this tread
XXJPS is the last version i think (but isn't listed there)

Thanks for the suggestion to use a stock rom.
I tried that but sadly it does not work.
Is ther a fix

Than you have to search to the stock rom on samfirmare.com or this site and flash it with odin normaly your phone must be recognized by your pc (these stock roms have a bootloader so maybe this will work)
Maybe you could't try to re install the drivers from the g3 do re install samsung kies

maybe you have launcher pro installed. ive go to applications en uninstal launcher pro. then connect your phone to pc in samsung kies mode. then update your firmware.

Hi All,
Installed GT-I5800_NEE_I5800XXJPS_I5800NEEJP2_I5800XXJP4_I5800XXJPS and all seems back to normal now, as Kies now say that no updates are available.
Thanks

Hi everyone, i encounter a problem earlier. Basically i rooted my phone days ago and i m still using stock rom without flashing custom roms. So i eager to try out the mod from Omega thread and install the Omega file from google play. After downloaded the mod (for omega rom) of scrolling wallpaper for TW and i flashed it.

So i found out out there there is a stock official rom XXUBMEA, i was previously from XXUAME2, can i flash this rom with odin?What is the complete process i need to do to flash this stock rom? Appreciate that you can help me so i can get back my phone!!

It will not delete the setting apps data etc since u are flashing with odin
However after flashing u make whatever data backup u need and reset the device completely so that the csc will match the new firmware and will work with kies

XT1601 Stock Firmware - Will any XT1601 rom work?

Hello,
I want to try some custom roms as I just picked up this phone but want a stock rom/firmware before I do. I could not find the exact stock firmware/rom which my phone is on when looking through the File Factory folder. (http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27/?sort=filename&order=ASC&show=100&page=9)
Will any XT1601 rom/firmware with the same build number work?
My phone is an XT1601 on build MPI24.241-15.3, Baseband Version M8916_20250106.08.05.14R HARPIA_LATAM_CUST.
Would the following work? Will I receive OTA updates if I flash back to this at a later point?
XT1601_HARPIA_MPI24.241-15.3_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
Thanks in advance and please let me know if I need to provide any further info!

There is a download-able stock rom for xt1601. So you can always flash back to that stock after trying some custom roms.
I did mine (tried AOKP and flashed back to stock). I was able to receive OTA too.
I have no way near my pc so cannot get link to xt1601 stock and copy here. Trust that if you do a search you can find it.

Also, should any XT1601 rom/firmware work on my XT1601? I dont want to try flashing one that might not work

I am current out of the country now so could not help. I don't want to risk the phone to flash stock of other variations.
If I can recall from my memory about where I have found the rom, I'll let you know.
