The jm2 Version over Kies is for brandet SGS only, or isn't it. As far i know Flash comes with Froyo.

It's samsung's way to give little pieces to us who are mad about the gps
Thanks for the info, I tought it was froyo only.

Jpy through kies faster then jpy through odin

I just noticed that upgrading throuh reg hack on Kies makes the phone run smoother than the same firmware while upgrading on Odin.
I don't know if this has to do with using one file in Odin however just wanted to share.

Is it the same file or two different files .
Kies your official network firmware Odin presume you are using a stock non provider file .

Is JPY officially available on Kies?

How did you determine this? Might just be a placebo effect or related to something else you did / didn't do (e.g. factory reset / cache wipe).

Yes. I flashed to it last night. I downgraded via odin back to 2.1. Downloaded kies 2.0 and it came up with JPY firmware. So far so good, GPS is meh, didnt use it enough today though. Ive never had GPS issues previously, through either official 2.1 roms or non official 2.2 roms. Ill test more 2 moro

This is pure bs as usual. When u install a new f/w benchmarks always run slightly faster till u get memory filled up with installed programs.

I don't care about benchmarks. I was speaking of generally using the phone.
The phone is smoother, there is no more lag. There was always lag before even with no programs installed.
However it can be placebo,
I also noticed that after flashing some kernel (for going back to 2e recovery) immediately reappears the lag
The stock 2.2.1 is also smoother to me than Darky rom, however they equal after applying lagfix on Darky.

Phone freezing

I`ve got the Galaxy S I9000 for a week now, and I keep getting random freezes 2-3 times a day.
Tryed 4 diffrent ROMs and they all behave the same. Now I am on 2.2.1 JPY.
Could this be a hardware issue ? Is this a known issue?
Please help.
I feel like I am back to the TyTN days :-(
Thank you.

Which all roms did you try?
Plus did u try doing a hard reset? Or a repartition using odin?
Are you on an overclocked kernel?
Give more info. Cant say anything without it. The problem could be that 2.1 and 2.2 have lag probems that can be confused with freezing ( sometimes it will be unresponsive for almost 5 mins ). This is corrected in 2.2.1 JPU, JPX and JPY. But if u have an overclocked kernel it will also cause freezing. So tell me which kernel and rom ur using and u previously tried.

Hi, I am sure it is not lag, as it was frozen for more than 3 hours..
I got 2.2.1 JPY Custom Hebrew ROM, kernel: "k12n 250" according to the ROM supplier
How do I check if have an overcloked kernel?

Try using repartition in odin and flash eclair 2.1
After that download darkys 9.1 and make sure u use the wipe edition. Flash it and let me know

A safer method would be to follow this post use Block 2 Odin method . Test after part one Eclair flashed .

But as has been said brand new phone with problems and you messed with roms and invalidated your warranty .

[Q]Dutch XEN Official Gingerbread 2.3.3 stock rom

Hi guys. I saw on samfirmware that stock ROM CSC: I9000XENJV4 is available for download. I'm guessing this is Netherlands official GB 2.3.3 stock rom. Unfortunately if I open Kies to update my phone it says that I'm using the latest firmware (2.2.1 CSC = I9000XENJS3; I9000XWJS5).
Has anyone managed to update to GB directly using Kies to this version?
Thank you in advance for your answers.

I think I9000XENJV4 is only available on samfirmware at the moment. I'm also on 2.2.x and kies doesn't show updates.

Samfirmware was wrong, see his tweet some moments later:
@SamFirmware Update KIES for Netherlands not online yet. Galaxy S.

Samfirmware shows firmware-files - i just flashed my SGS with the xen-firmware and it works like a charm... So the update may not be available through KIES but the firmware files are available from SamFirmware.com

I do not understand this Samsung policy..why Nordic countries got it months before....testing purposes or what??
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

I guess so. I used the Nordic version a long time

Thank you very much for your answers. I thought it is something wrong with my phone or kies since I cannot find for that specific CSC. In this case I'll be waiting a little bit more. Anyhow, it's weird that XEN firmware isn't out for gingerbread since NEE is out for more than one month.

Now available by kies I9000XWJVH/I9000XENJV4/I9000XXJVO/I9000XWJVH

Is there any way to know what are T9 and swype languages in this rom without having to flash it?
Or any other rom for that matter?

Startup sound is not smooth on my phone but interrupted. Same with voice announcements in the Osmand navigation program. MP3s play fine though.
Had some problems with widgets. Songbird needed readding the widget after program restart.
Jorte calandar had its widget not showing. After updating some fight to get it to work with the Google calendar, but that was not 2.3.3/JVH's fault.

I'm on GT-9000 / 2.3.3 stock /I9000XXJVO/GINGERBREAD.XWJVH/ stock kernel at the moment still as well.
Used the last voodoo before on Froyo but I'm not too keen on flashing anything right now right away to root again. I'd love to get voodoo on it again (mainly because of the audio features and obviously the lagfix) however the latest voodoo kernel for gingerbread on JVH stll seems to be based on older sources then the one samsung just released from what i've read.
As soon as there is a stable Voodoo (without the word "hack" in it) for JVH, i'm flashing

At least I have 3 button combo's now working after updating to the 2.3.3 XWJVH XEN. They didn't work for me before!

Mine worked before and still do, but a friend of mine has one that didn't have the 3 button combo so im interested to see what'll happen there.
Dit yours never work or did they stop working after a custom rom?

3 button combo indeed start working after this update
I just checked mine, after reading the thread and yes I can confirm mine never worked before but after this update to 2.3.3,it started working.
That's nice.

That's because the gingerbread update contains the SBL (Secondary Boot Loader).
The sbl is responsible for the 3-button combo.

[Q] After flashing back stock ROM, the phone keeps blinking on the boot screen (HELP)

I am in desperate need of help you guys! I screwed up so hard that I don't even know where to begin...
THE SITUATION:
-Right now when I go to turn on my phone, it will only stay on the current SAMSUNG GALAXY S I9000 screen (the very first screen when booting your phone) and it keeps flashing in and out.
Before trying to use Odin to put back the original Kernal on my phone, it was just stuck as the SAMSUNG GALAXY S I9000 screen, still wouldn't start. <I followed this website step by step>
http://www.samsunggalaxysforum.com/...-to-a-stock-rom-after-installing-darky's-rom/
BEFORE ALL OF THIS EVER HAPPENED:
I finally rooted my phone and manage to download Clockworkmod recovery on my phone and then used it to flash Darky's 10.2 custom ROM. Everything turned out great except at the beginning of the boot, the screen turned all rainbow coloured, completely distorted, and it continued to do that. I then tried to go back to Recovery mode to do the Voodoo lagfix but I couldn't even get into the recovery mode anymore, it either wouldn't let me, or it did but the screen didn't go to it properly (more likely the first one). I read somewhere that if you reflash your phone again, it should make all the tweeks go away. So I tried that from the Darky's tools menu and ever since then, I've been stuck with the Boot Screen this whole time...
I already bricked my phone once, and that was before the Flashing Boot Screen.
I really need help you guys, I would at least like to have my phone back to the original basis, at least! Your help would be greatly appreciated!
THANK YOU
P.S. (i'm not that great at all this phone tweeking, but I've succeeded in doing it up until yesterday)

Weird colors on boot usually are a sign of an incorrect bootloader version. Since you seem to be familiar with darky stuff (ugh) you could try the darky resurrection edition; there should be easy to follow instructions on their site.

I just flashed the RE version and it's making some progress. Definitely no weird colors.
PROBLEM:
-the boot screen is still flashing when trying to boot my phone, only this time it's with the "Darkcore & Darky's ROM" logo on it. The flashing is at a slower pace this time around.
ALSO:
I can get into the stock recovery screen, I hope this can somehow help
what should I doo!!?!

Ok see your here too and more q's for you based on what I see here:
1) What did you start with as a rom before 10.2 (stock GB, Froyo rom or ???)
2) The RE version - was that GB or Froyo?
I am thinking as the other poster alluded to is that maybe you went from a Froyo rom to 10.2 without getting the GB bootloader from a stock rom (odin with bootloader update checked) and now you are still working with the wrong bootloader?
If that sounds like what happened try flashing the RE edition for Froyo (9.3 I think) if you haven't already.

Once I rooted my phone, I automatically went from Stock Froyo to Darky's 10.2 extreme edition. It worked and everything except for that color disfiguration and the clockworkmod recovery not working.
It's weird because after I flashed my first darky's rom, i checked the phone and it said that the firmware version was 2.3.X (I believe X may have been 4). So from what you're saying, I don't exactly think it has anything to do with the fact that I went straight from froyo stock to GB darky ROM.
So are you saying that I should flash darky's 9.3 for Froyo and THEN flash the latest version?

As far as i read on the Darky Site you have to activate Lagfix to install 10.2
Do you?
In other case.
Install Resurrection 9.2 FW:
(sorry. new member no links outside allowed: Go darky forum, stable roms, darky resurrection 9.2)
If that works your bootloader if for Froyo and afterwards you can go on to flash Darkys 10.2 like written in the Darky Forum.
But i would suggest to stay on Darky´s 9.5 with 2.2.1
It is the stable version with no bugs at all. This gingerbread sucks a lot with Akku Drain, Light sensor and other thing. Also no call records.
I will stay on 9.5 so far. Best solution at the moment...
The thing with installing 10.2 you installed without installing 2.3.3 rom before could be, that is maybe possible to install Darkys 10.2 Theme on a 2.2.1?
But no guarantee...

The colour distortion problem is 100% caused by incorrect bootloaders. Download jvq from samfirmware (or another 3 file gingerbread of you have one already), use the Odin version contained in the download, tick repartition and update bootloader then flash.
Download cf root for jvq and flash that as PDA without repartition. After the phone boots downlaod darkyrom from the market and from it flash darky 10.2.
Personally the kernal that comes with darkys takes too long to load the phone so I use galaxian instead. Phone flies and it's the first custom jvq rom I've used which doesn't reboot itself.

Thanks for your response! Greatly appreciated. But at the time, I'm just looking to get my phone to work. It still doesn't work, it's still only stuck flashing the bootscreen, nothing else.
From my other post:
Okay, basically at this point, I just want my phone to work I've tried what you said. I remember that before rooting my phone initially I was running Froyo 2.2.1. So I found the ROM for that ( http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i9000.htm ) Just like you said. I downloaded from the *Provider Samsung Galaxy S i9000 heading and picked the I9000BOJS5 ## from February 2011 because I think somewhere around there I updated my phone to Froyo. Flashed it, did everything, still no luck.
I've had a recent hunch though. When the bootscreen boots up, it keeps saying i9000 only, when before it used to say i9000M at least for a little bit (yes my phone is i9000m). Is there a stock froyo rom that's specifically designed to go with the i9000m model? Or are they just all the same?
Never give up
-Thank you so much

Yes jl2 or kc1 roms are I9000M specific. But both need dbdata.rfs added to the roms from samfirmware.com if you repartition.
There was a post on the cm7 forums with a complete jl2 rom someone compiled with dbdata.rfs added. Look for that post as it might have some other info too.
The i9000 you see means the kernel is for i9000. But that shouldn't matter.
It's worth a try but I think that a trip to samsung is on your phones future.
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA Premium App

Could be that you have a lagfix enabled and the stock ROM can't read the EXT4 file system. If so, try flashing another custom ROM via Odin (e.g. GingerReal), disable the lagfix to go back to RFS, then from there you can go back to the stock ROM.

Well CM7 forum is down but here is the most of the link, you can google this and look at the cached pages. cyanogenmod topic/15707-how-to-restore-to-stock-on-your-gt-i9000m/
You should be able to click to the multi upload link too.
Now - you are aware of course that our i9000m models can suck and die fairly readily, especially when flashing certain roms. Has yours even been returned yet? Mine has and they replaced the motherboard. You may actually have a warrenty job and in any regard they won't likely fight too hard (just flash it to one of the jl2 or kc1 rom first).
If you want to find out for sure. look for the i9000m threads where they install eclair and use the external sd to boot and then look at the memory (internal then shows as external I think - its in the thread). Basically if it shows 0 available you're hooped.

It may not have dbdata.rfs in it which you need if you repartition. I think they leave it out so regular users do not have to reinstall all their Apps.... Just look at what's in the file...

there is a I9000UGJL2_homebinary_add_param.tar

so All i would have to do is just put that .tar file in PDA field and get a regular .pit file and check off the re-partitions

Okay, I have great news!!!!!!!!
I flashed that previous stock froyo ROM and finally can use my phone once more!!!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! Special thanks goes to gfacer! I could never have done it without you!
needless to say, I still require a custom ROM such as Darky's 10.2 RE on this phone of mine.
As a final request, would you be so kind to list all the things necessary for me to do in order to get all the way to darky's 10.2 with the lagfix and all?
Or if not, at least a thread or website that says exactly how to do it on my phone (i9000m) ?
Thanks ever so much!!!

Great!
My advice would be to pretend it never happened, but read all the instructions for the rom you are interested in and start from scratch.
Generally I would go custom froyo kernel from odin which will root you and give cwm generally, update bootloader to gb via a stock rom or ezbase, then flash 10.2 via cwm.
Darky has excellent guides also look at ezbase thread.

To load Darky 10.2 successfully on your phone, you have to flash JVP or JVQ bootloader over your phone. The best solution is flash Stock Rom with bootloader over your phone. Then, flash Darky rom over your phone.
