Couple of questions: Samsung Fascinate
I previously installed a DJ05 rom and then odin'en back to stock and then did a factory reset three times. So i assume i am back to stock at this point.
My phone specks after Odin flash and factory reset now say:
Firmware version 2.1 update 1
Baseband version DJ05
Kernel version 2.6.29
Build number DH12
1. Are these the original verizon software specs that the phone came out of the box with or are some of these specs left over from the DJ05 rom ( since the basband version still says DJ05)?
2. I have tried doing the OTA update to DL01 or DL09 whichever it is, and it sucessfully downloads the software but when it tries to install it in recovery i see there is a red message generated after it tries to update the modem which i cant read because the text is moving so fast and then the phone reboots and generates and error message saying,
Update failed or incomplete.
Reason : IP Previous Upgrade Failed.
Just wondering would any of the specs that i listed above be the cause of the update failure?
Thanks for any input.
You go back to the stock radio too? Thats my only guess

I got it figured out so I am posting this so hopefully it might help someone.
The past 24 hours i have been trying to update to the OTA DL09 update with out any success.
I had previously rooted and installed different ROM's on multiple occassions and gone back to stock on multiple occassions using ODIN and these recovery files that i had downloaded from the forums.
As a result of all of this ROM installation/Recovery/ROM installation/Recovery over the past couple of months my Baseband version was changed to DJ05 and my Build was changed to DH12 which i think was creating the problem with the OTA update installation to DL09.
Solution:
Do a fresh install using Odin and flash the DL01package3.tar.tar which can be found in the fascinate Deveolpement forum then to the OTA update on your phone. This worked for me and i now have the DL09 version running. Hope this helps someone.

Does "2.1-update1" mean I have the recent OTA update?
ECLAIR.UVJI6 under "Build Number" means you have the latest version.
Vibrant came stock with 2.1-update1 and the latest update doesn't change that. Your build and baseband will both end in JI6
Hm, I had a firmware update available last night and I ran it but it "bricked" my phone. I spent all day learning how to get back to stock. I finally fixed my phone, but when I went back to run the update again I get "No firmware."
The same way you got back to stock can get you to the latest update. It's really easy, just make sure you are using Odin 1.3
Are you rooted right now?
No, since I got back to stock I haven't done anything besides redoing some of the old settings I had. Last time I rooted I used RyanZAs OCLF, but I had kind of decided being rooted (or something) was the reason the update broke my phone.
Just odin from my thread. Its the same as the OTA. Undo all your lagfixes and all BS. before trying to do it.
its all explained. Dont see a need for 30 threads on the same thing.
So i got an icon on my notifications bar that said "DM" Device Management, and i know that meant that my update was being downloaded OTA. After about 1 minute, it went away. I already installed the JI6 manually through ODIN. So could that just mean that it was recognized that i already had the update, or did it "fail" because i had a manually installed ROM? Thanks for the help.....This is my first post by the way. I love XDA.
My GF just got her update notification today and it nearly bricked her phone. Mine is already updated through odin, so i figured i just let her phone update through ota. Well, the update failed on her and it caused her phone to get stuck on the Vibrant screen. This happened while we were out, but the good news is that the ota update fix the hardware lock. I used odin and flashed the update again and all is well. For the ones that knows how to use odin, I would highly recommend updating it yourself through odin.
Hello all,
I have a Bell Samsung Galaxy S with the Froyo 2.2 upgrade. Today I when I connected my phone to the usb cable I noticed there was a firmware upgrade. So I proceeded with the upgrade. It was downloading and installing as usual then when it hit 100% a message popped up saying that the upgrade failed and that you need to do an emergency repair. So I panicked just a tad and clicked emergency repair. It did its thing, rebooted, and it's back up and running. I disconnected the usb after everything settled down and reconnected it to try again and I get that "This is the latest firmware." message and that the current firmware installed on my phone is PDA:JL2 / PHONE: JL2 / CSC:JL2 and latest firmware is PDA:JL2 / PHONE: JL2 / CSC:JL2.
What should I do now? Wait and see if and update comes for this firmware or what? I think the firmware it installed on my phone is different then what it was when I installed Froyo 2.2 back in November or so. If memory serves me correctly I think it was JK4. Anyways, what suggestions does anyone have regarding my issue.
Thanks
Dont worry JL2 is what replacer JK4 tgat was killing SD cards. JL2 id 2.2 not 2.2.1

OOh [turns red], ok, I might have not read what kind of firmware version was being installed. I thought it was 2.2.1 because I've read that it was recently released. That's my bad for not reading what it said. Thanks for the response, greatly appreciated.
To start I rooted with Kingo but still stock otherwise. Then settings/about phone/software update and no luck. So I flashed the stock image and pit file so I'm back to no root and full stock. Go back to settings/about/software update and still says (update unavailable) not (no update available) or running latest version. It's an error saying my updater isn't working. I'm on MJ7 and wanting to update to MJE the latest version. Can anyone help? I've tried Samsung Kies and Verizon repair/update on my PC and still no profit. I'm want to update and run the cleanrom 1.5.....
Okay well update took through Verizon update/repair on PC finally. First off my signal went from -98 to -92.... so that doesn't suck. 2nd) upon re rooting with KingoApp when I boot/reboot I do not get the pesky custom logo and I'm on stock room with no wanam/exposed.
3rdly) I went to settings/about/software update and it now works and says my phone is running current. Now to flash cleanrom 1.5 and I'm done. Thanks for looking!
Hi All,
I have a strange issue, I have upgraded my phone to kitkat(I9500XXUFNE4) thru odin, but the modem is missing and cause of that IMEI is showing as "null/null", so I tried flashing only modem from the zip file of I9500XXUFNE4 but didn't work, and now only way to get modem back on my phone is when I flash "GT-I9500_Modem_XXUEMJ8", the only problem with this is, if I tried to install Paranoid Android my modem again goes missing and even though I flash "GT-I9500_Modem_XXUEMJ8" thru odin still it doesn't, it's like only if I flash Samsung's official firmware then only flashing "GT-I9500_Modem_XXUEMJ8" will bring back my modem and IMEI#.
I should probably mention this also- previously I had installed leaked firmware of open asia "I9500XXUEMJ5_I9500ODDEMJ5_I9500DDUEMJ5_ODD", since then even though I update my phone via official Samsung's OTA or kies, it just updated my "AP" and "CSC, but I have to flash "GT-I9500_Modem_XXUEMJ8" in order to get back my modem.
Please help me, as I want to use my S4 with AOSP or AOKP based roms only.
P.S. I had three generations of Galaxy S series starting from I9000 and since those days I'm flashing my phone and using Custom roms.
