today kies says me there's pda JMG, phone JMF, csc JMG for my galaxy tab, but i have a doubt.
i was on stock jk5 and had to reflashwith odin 1.3 to jk5 (i need to stay on originalfirmware because the pda is property of my office). now i don't understand if this upgrade kies giges me is samsung original, or is an upgrade that is shown because i reflashed with jk5 took from samfirmware.
please help me, and if is the second option, is there a way to go back to "stock"jk5, so nobody will ever be aware i once had to reflash with odin?
thank you very much

Hello All,
It seems Ive flashed the wrong firmware on my i9000m, the 3 button download mode stopped worked but I got a USB jig & now I can get back into download mode.
I re-partitioned & flashed all three PDA, Modem & CSC in Odin.
Before I try again i was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of the files I need, preferably files that wouldn't cause Samsung to question the validity of my warranty if I have to send it back in.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

here is the stock firmware list
Does anyone know what the original firmware code is for an i9000m from bell in Canada?
JL2 is that latest official Bell i9000m firmware.
This is the JL2 ROM I got from Kies when it updated my phone.

Hi To All Gurus,
I have a new Samsung GTab and planning to upgrade my firmware because the stock firmware always pop a message " Force Close " when I install any apps from Market.
My firmware is Stock I thinks it's a JPJK2, I buy this in Riyadh and I can use any sim so I think it's not lock to any provider.
I saw new firmware from SamFirmware which is P1000JPJM5 is this compatible to my GTab Arab version I may say?
I download Odin 1.7 from SamFirmware also and I saw PIT, PDA, PHONE and CSC, I download P1000JPJM5 and PIT for Euro but I don't know if this can match to my device also if I don't have PHONE and CSC it's means my GTab will not work as normal phone or 3G if I don't have the PHONE and CSC file?
For those who can answer some of my question please try to guide me so I can start Rooting my GTab also I can upgrade my device.
I will appreciate more if you can explain it to me and URL link to all what I need to download for firmware upgrade will do a lot help for me also.
Thank you and Regards to all, more power to XDA and it's users.
Don't flash any JM roms from samsung! You will be stuck with a locked bootloader and not be able to use any open developed roms here.
Hi rangercaptain,
Then how can I root my GT?
I encounter a lot of Force Close thats why I'm planning to upgrade my Firmware.
Please advice me on where I need to start, TIA.
Regards,
I am on UK Galaxy S and wish to go back to an original firmware for the moment through KIES. I have tried flashing various firmwares through ODIN to then have KIES that the firmware is not updatable
I have the latest KIES - please can some one tell me which firmware to flash back to using ODIN and the connect through KIES - thanks
You may be better off using the spoof tool.
To spoof I need to be rooted and busy box - what is the best method?
Kies only reads official firmware and will not read stock firmware in regards to update .
Spoof firmware best bet as looks like you are one of the 99.99% that does not backup before modding .

I've flashed jm1 via odin then upgraded to jpy via kies numerous times, so that's not quite true
@jamiec902
Go to samfirmware.com. Download jm1 firmware plus 512 pit file plus the flashing instructions.follow their excellent guide to the letter to flash jm1 via odin. You will then be able to upgrade to jpy via kies. You will lose the 3 button reset as jm1 messes the bootloader, the solution to this can be found elsewhere on this site. Best of luck
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Flash XWJS7 XEE via Odin. Kies will then detect and update to XWJVB XEE. Worked for me.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Flash JPY using Odin, use pit and re-partition if you like: Download (Double-click to extract).
The firmware does not include bootloaders and will not mess your phone. This is the latest firmware for UK.
The best method is downloading the official firmware using Check Fus Downloader as I did. You can find it in "Themes and Apps" section.
Simply, you have to remember your old firmware number e.g I9000ADJM1
I have Samsung Galaxy S on O2 UK, my firmware for Eclair was :
I9000ADJM1/I9000O2UJM1/I9000ADJM1/I9000ADJM1
after you download the program, go to that directory and type
Code:
CheckFusDownloader.exe -c I9000XXJF3/I9000OXAJF3/I9000XXJF3/I9000XXJF3 XEU
XEU is the CSC for your old firmware.
of course you should change numbers to your firmware
it will check the latest firmware which is froyo. replace the option "-c" with "-dl" to download the firmware.
if you need help PM me.
P.S: there are missing steps needed to carry on the method, you can find it in the thread mentioned above.
So, my wife has Eclair on her T-mobile branded phone. Is it safe to upgrade to Froyo via Odin since mobile is branded?
I have Galaxy S and I am familiar with upgrading and custom ROMs via Odin, I just want to know is it simple to upgrade it via Odin as on mine Galaxy S? I will download the latest Froyo from samfirmware page.
Or should I somehow debrand my wife's phone before upgrade?
Thanks.
No problem to flash it via Odin, branded/unbranded doesn't matter.
You can even choose between branded and unbranded ROMs if you want.^^
If you still need information about Odin (in combination with the SG3) you can find everything in the development-section.
Thank you for your answer. Regarding Odin it is pretty much clear. Similar as for mine Galaxy S but with different files and different Odin version.
It's save...
But becarefull, because the latest rom from samfimware it has boot.img problem. it will cause your phone "hard brick"
Just see it in developer selection for save flash rom
Flash a firmware from here (for safe flash): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063940
Hi, I own an i5800 wich I did flash with latest Kyrillos ROM.
Now I need to sell it, so I wanted to reset to its original firmware and I flashed to various Android 2.1 stock fw found on samfirware, in order to upgraded it with Kies.
Problem is that Kies always tells me
"this model can0t be upgraded"
I could flash it with a stock 2.2, but I wanted to let the future owner to use Kies to upgrade the phone.
Somwhere I read it is a problem of CSC and country so Kies does not recongise the availability of updates if check against CSC fails.
I am from Italy. How can I flash it to a correct fw/CSC ?
Can anybody help me?
Thanks in adavance!
Hi
I'm not sure but I think it must be related to the "product code".
The only way to repair your product code is to manipulate the nv_data.bin file with a hex editor.

I don't remember where i have read that you'd better NOT flash back to Android 2.1 at random if you have a Android 2.2 on your device. It's will cause erro.
in your case, use ODIN
