Hi!
I was earlier on EH18 rom & now I am currently on geewiz 2.8 kernal & system (which was flashed using CWM red recovery) with EH18 radio. I have tried to Odin stock EH03 rom (md5 is correct) on my phone but could not go beyond modem.bin. I tried the same with FC27 rom too. Every time i try to odin i am getting stuck at modem.bin.
Has my handset been locked by my service provider from whom i have bought the handset ie Reliance (india)?
If yes, how do i unlock it safely without disturbing any other settings so that i do not lose my connectivity with them?
If no, what else could be wrong?
Can i flash EH03 baseband (radio) via CWM??
I need to do this as I'm not able to upgrade my handset to AKOP ICS roms which need my phone to be atleast on EH03 before starting.
Thanks in advance

I have already tried to Odin geewiz full rom but that too gets stuck at modem.bin

Have you tried odined the other full roms? Maybe that will help you pass the modem.bin step? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526488
i have tried flashing EH03 stock & geewiz full rom too but still no luck...
Heimdall uses itd own driver...maybe you would have more luck with that? Have you tried flashing just the radio with an older version of heimdall? Don't use the newest suite as the program has become more of a Odin replacement rather than a granular tool.
Actually, now that I think about it you could also try the 1 click eh03 package in the dev forum.

Whenever i am trying to upgrade to geewiz rom I am getting this message

Sounds like your partitions are screwed up or you are using an incompatible/bad version of CWM.
How do i restore my partitions? I have used CWM, stock as well as geewiz recovery to wipe data but all of them display similar mesage saying cannot format dbdata
Have you tried to Odin stock eh03 with the pit file? That may help. And make sure you check reparation

This post is just to give you a heads up that you can not downgrade from JL2. if you can please tell me how you got it to work.
I just got my phone back from bell, they could not repair it, so i got a brand new phone.
The new phone had JH2 on it.
I installed kies and it automatically update it to JL2.
Before upgrading I forgot to do two things,
1) install CWR, jl2 uses 3e and not 2e and CWR does not work with 3e.
2) unlock the phone, the unlock method needs jh2 or less, as i know it you can not get the unlock code from a 2.2 froyo like JL2.
So i load up odin, (all versions 1.3 1.0 1.7) and try going back to jh2.
it does flash, but after on restart we can not boot the phone, it keeps boot looping on SAMSUNG screen. I even tried all the pit files and checking partition.
only download mode works. so i flashed back JL2. else my phone does not boot.
guys can we NOT downgrade back from jl2 on bell phone?
I am just thinking how bad this will be for the new phones that already have JL2 installed outta the box, and you if you can not downgrade how will new users with this phone be able to unlock the phone and install rom manager or a.k.a. Clockwork Recovery
Use odin and flash a kernel that has 2e or find a full rom that has the .sbl and boot file in it and flash that.
Petsonally I flashed JL2 with kies then flashed hardcores kernel found in the android section of the forums then been flashing custom roms from cwm im on darky's 7.7 right now with the jl2 modem.

1st I flashed the speed mod kernel, then installed Darkys 7.7 from the internal SD...working now so it can be done as I was on JL2 before.
Yes you can still install custom roms but you can never go back to previous samsung official software. So no JH2.

I found jl2 rom with sbl.bin
but other versions of roms like jh2 and jg8 dont have the sbl.bin file in side, and if i just flash those roms anyways then after extract the sb.bin file from the jl2 rom and try flashing it alone it does not help.
so please tell me where can i get a bell rom for i9000m with sbl.bin file already there.
also you say to flash a boot file AND sbl.bin, what is a boot file? do you mean the sbl.bin is the boot file?

Here is a link with instructions on how to install Hardcore's Kernel once this kernel is flashed on your phone you can go from JL2 to a custom 2.2 rom of your choice. DO NOT FLASH THIS KERNEL IF YOU ARE USING UGJH2 this is a 2.2, 2.2.1 Kernel ONLY.
http://touristinparadise.blogspot.com/2010/11/samsung-galaxy-s-how-to-install.html
JK4 and JL2 both had the new SBL in there. I was able to flash via kies the JH2(or 8, can't remember) at one point when it was still available.
What does this mean for rooting and other things? Are we able to root the phone or are they going to be locking down the phone so we can't do anything anymore? If they will lock it down I can just drop it in the toilet and get my insurance to get me a Nexus S >.>
thanx for the rom. was looking for a native rom so i could actually change between gsm and wcdma, and your rom fits the bill. hope you continue to update the rom, like more tweaks n stuff on your spare time

Maybe someone mentioned this already but you can unlock with JL2. I used SGS Unlock Pro from the Android Market.
Interestling enough, I CANNOT for the life of me recover after trying to downgrade to a different rom..
I got JL2 (locked) and I tried to unlock (no luck) so I tried a different rom (yes I know how to use ODIN) Ive tried 4 or 5 different ronms with different methods of flashing.
And no luck..
Tried the orig JL2 rom again, and Im stuck in a boot loop
not much fun!
Mine is dead ather this same process
Hi , I did the same as you. I got my SGS rev 10.10 back from getting flashed by bell. They flashed JL2 in it and I wanted to try Darky's rom. I tried to go to JH2 first and the phone started to loop. So I tried flash it again and I lost download mode. I had to make the 301K usb jig to get the download mode back. I tried to flash back JL2 but that just killed the phone out right ... Now I have no screen at all. No messages or any sign of life. I called Bell and they will ship me a new one by mail in 5 Busness days.

I just got my replacement from bell, came with jl2 on it. I tried flashing jh2 onto it for three purposes of unlocking without any success. I had to go back to jl2 to get it booting again. In the ends I used the nv_data.bin modifying method of unlocking and it started working on rogers so I put the rom kitchen docrom on it, jpy, hardcore kernel and have been enjoying ever since. Hopefully this method of unlocking proves to be permanent

For those of you trying to downgrade to JH2 are you downloading the version that is linked in this thread and are you making sure Update Bootloader is checked in odin when flashing?
I also tried to flash an older stock firmware, but now my SGS gets stuck on the logo and the three buttton recovery mode or download mode doesn't work. Holding the power down and home button on causes it to switch betweeen the log and the battery

Yes, I confirm the JH2 linked in the thread works to downgrade from JL2. I used Odin 1.7 and put the file in the PDA and select "flash bootloader". Nothing else, no PIT no repartition, nothing. You don't need root or anything special, just 3-button mode.
Every other firmware I used put me in an infinite boot loop, this one worked fine to downgrade.
I also upgraded back up to JL2 through kies w/o a problem after the downgrade.

What rom?...
nebula 1.0.7 from 1.0.5
I can boot into recovery and download , but not sure where to go from here
You could flashing a different rom. Or Odin to stock then reflash the rom
Do you have any backups that you can restore from? You can also try to flash it again and see how that goes. If nothing else you can use odin

how can i use odin to flash a rom? How can I add roms to my phone? It wont mount
You don't use Odin to flash a rom. You use it to flash stock kernal and modem. I mean, you could either try doing the wipe and flash a different rom. Or Odin to dk28, then flash a rom. If your phone won't mount, just stick the sd card in your computer (if you have the slot)

Do you want stock eclair 2.1 or leaked froyo 2.2.1?
To odin (flash) to froyo (even if you had eclair installed, you can use this to upgrade) follow these instructions
Download the required .tar file
Download Odin
Open up Odin and put your phone into “download mode”
Turn off your phone, wait until the lights turn off
Hold “1″ on the keyboard while powering up
Plug your device in
Place the .tar file in the PDA slot
Start flashing
Congratulations! You now have Android 2.2.1 Froyo (DK28) on your Samsung Epic 4G from Sprint!

Alternatively to odin (flash) back to eclair 2.1 you can follow the exact same steps from above except use this .tar instead
Download the required .tar file
Download Odin
Open up Odin and put your phone into “download mode”
Turn off your phone, wait until the lights turn off
Hold “1″ on the keyboard while powering up
Plug your device in
Place the .tar file in the PDA slot
Start flashing
Congratulations! You now have Android 2.1 Eclair (Di18) on your Samsung Epic 4G from Nextel!

I had the same thing happen to me when I first installed Nebula 1.0.7. I was able to fix it simply by booting back into CW and re-flashing the rom. Hope this helps you out.

This is your best bet. You have Nebula on your SD, boot in CW, reflash right over what you got. It should boot. If not you have no choice but to Odin to stock then try again.

and its back!! now my last question, will I need to do anything else to try installing roms again? Like do I need to flash the modem or anything like that?
To stay with stock dk28 (not recommended because it isn't stable), you don't need to odin anything other than the tar I described.
For custom roms, you will need to reroot using the one click method described here.
This will install clockworkmod recovery 3.0.0.5 which will also reformat your phone to ext4. After this, you can flash your custom ext4 dk28 rom of choice (I like bonsai).
When you Odin, you already get the modem.

Hi all,
I apologize for what must be a noobish question, but I've installed the latest 2.3 stock rom with the bootloader (because I was coming from 2.2). Unfortunately I'm unable to revert to any 2.2 roms now (either stock or from the Rom Kitchen). I get a strange blue message that flashes on the screen (only shows partial "reboot" word). Then the phone reboots and takes me back into 2.3 as if I did a factory reset.
So how do I revert my bootloader so that I can install 2.2 roms again?
Thanks!
Edit: To clarify, I've use Clockwork Recovery to flash a 2.2 Rom Kitchen rom and also Odin to flash a stock 2.2 PDA image, both just rebooted the phone back into 2.3.
Edit 2: In the off-chance I'm wrong about the bootloader being the problem, can someone point me to a 2.2 stock rom (or near-stock custom rom) that includes an appropriate modem/csc? Thanks!
Edit 3: Just tried flashing a 2.3 rom kitchen rom in Clockwork - same problem. Guess it's not the bootloader, but I'm stumped now.
hey.. as i know.. u need to flash a stock firmware of 2.2.1 or 2.2.. with odin..not just pda, also pit and with re-partion.
after that, flash some kernel with CWM and then the rom.

Thanks guys, I more or less figured it out. I needed to flash the modem/csc in Odin along with a 2.2 PDA image. I mistakenly hoped that a 2.3 modem/csc could be used with a 2.2 PDA.

Here's the steps I followed:
Save all files to folder/desktop
Connect phone via usb and copy JVH_KC1_BMC.zip to root of sdcard
Restart phone in download mode
Open Odin and click PDA
Select Speedmod tar file
Uncheck Auto-Reboot
Check F.Reset Time (I don't know what it does, but it's always checked)
Flash the tar.
Once complete and the box says "PASS" in green, unplug your phone and pull the battery (I was told it's safe, as it's in the MIUI instructions as well)
Put battery back in and start phone in recovery with VOL UP+HOME+POWER
In recovery choose to update from zip
Choose file from sdcard
Choose the JVH_KC1_BMC zip file and update
The phone will restart/install.
Once it's started up for the first time I recommend restarting in download mode and flashing the stock JVH kernal
You can also use any kernal you want.
Let me know if I can help at all. I was trying to make a completely odin flashable tar for this but failed miserably :9
I'll do my best to answer any questions however this is my first time making something to flash for you all
Note:
I'm not sure where to put this, sorry to mods/admins if it's in the wrong spot, please let me know
Hi,
I saw your thread, and I found it very interesting for people who own a Bell SGS 9000m Vibrant and wanna upgrate to Gingerbread.
So I decided to flash the Gingerbread JVH ROM just like you did, but I need to know a few things:
1. Will I be able to downgrade to my original stock froyo after this flash ?
2. Will I be able to update via Kies in case Bell release an official gingerbread update ?
3. Right now my phone is SIMUnlocked, will I lose my SIMunlockation after the flash ?
4. And is my actual configuration right to excecute this flash or should I flash something else before ?
My configuration is the following:
Baseband version
I9000UGJL2
Firmware
2.2
Kernel
2.6.32.9
[email protected] #3
Build number
FROYO.UGJL2
galaxy s vibrant bell
gt-i9000m
Thanks for your hard work, I hope to read back from you soon.
I have exact same configuration and exact same questions as poster above!!!
Still no answer... Guess we'll have to try if wanna know...

Thanks zorxd.
I am going to try. So there is no need for me to select any Pit file or did the guy forget to mention it ? Also can we tick the repartition option in Odin?
Sorry if I ask usekess question I am used to flash android but new to the SGS flashing...
when you repartition you need a PIT file.
My advice is to not repartition unless you need it.
Too late... I did it got stuck into bootloop. I had an error when I tried to install the zip from the recovery (I had recovery 3e) : E : Short write of /tmp/sideload/package.zip (No space left on device) . However, I flashed the back eclair JHL and went back to the stock eclair rom. I am going to restart from there following your intructions. I now have recovery 2e ( Somehow I can't get ClockWorkMod Recovery to load directly; it always send me to recovery 2e and there I apply update.zip to go to CWM recovery)
Thanks for your help, I'll let you know if I manage to get it done.
Still get the error E:Short write of/tmp/sideload/package.zip (No space left on device) when try to install JVH_KC1_BMC.zip from the recovery 3e ( this recovery comes right after I flash SpeedmodK15E_withLoaders.tar ...
Don't know what else to try... Help please..
I did it a slightly different way. From 2.2, I flashed a stock 3 part gingerbread rom (phone, PDA, CSC) with bootloader update using ODIN 1.82. I then flashed CF root gingerbread kernel for CWM3 and then flashed the KC1 modem from clockwork recovery for the 850 band.
Could you please show me the exact files you used so I can try to do the same ?
Aren't there at least a couple threads on how to install jvh/jvp on an i9000? Its the exact same process as those you just have to flash the kc1 modem via cwm after you are done. It sounds like you guys are experimenting too much.

Our canadian phone is not really different from all the other ones, so you don't need a special "Bell Canada" installation.
If you want JVH, you can follow this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=818556
You don't have to do everything like fugumod, etc. I would flash JVH via odin and then flash CF root kernel via odin so you get CWM3.
There's also leaked 2.3.4 JVP gingerbread out, if you feel inclined:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881
There's a way to enable 850 band on the different gingerbread modems, but i never bothered, I just flashed the KC1 modem for Bell which has the band (via CWM3). Search for I9000UGKC1

Okay I am really starting to freak out now...
I am stuck in bootloop, I can't get out og it. I tried flash Back the Stock Bell Firmware but it keeps boot looping. Download mode is okay. But it started doing this I had a message like sd could not be mounted in recovery 3e. Now I can't even access recovery after I flash Eclair but Download mode is still okay...
Aby ideas ?
Have you tried flashing back the stock JL2 firmware from bell? (found on samfirmware.com)
I've never encountered this error before, I wonder if it is a problem with the bootloaders, as the official froyo firmware from bell had a secondary bootloader and gingerbread has its own bootloaders as well.

I imagine you'll need the stock bell firmware as said above and also the proper PIT file to go along with it.

Also if you repartitioned it when you tried to flash the whatever it was when you tried you will also have to repartition it when going back down to froyo.
2.2 and 2.3 use different bootloaders therefore if you try to mix and match rom's without the bootloaders and repartioning you will get a ****y phone.

Thanks for your help guys. I didn't solve it yet, but i will open a new thread to prevent this one from getting to messy.
So, that's a long story, but a few days ago I tried do flash one more time the CM11. It gave me an error like written below. I used the CWM 6.0.5.3 that supports MTD (flashed it with Odin - .tar.md5), all beautiful, but that's not about it.
When I returned to stock and tried to flash the CWM5 through native recovery and even flashed CWM6 (6.0.5.3) through Odin, it gave me the following error (in both cases, native recovery with every ZIP I tried to flash and CWM also):
"Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installation <something>
Installation aborted."
After this manipulations, I can't even obtain root access on my phone and I have 3 apps installed, because it's out of memory. I heard that it could be because the file system remained in MTD and it is not compatible, but, if it's like this, how can I return to YAFFS2?
It does not install any ZIP, so I can flash nothing. Nor custom firmwares, nor other fixes (like root) and CWM also.
Please, help!

Simply flash stock rom via odin - this will convert your file system back to rfs for use with stock based roms (cm roms use ext file system)
You can then root the phone and flash a temp cwm or a kernel of your choice for stock based roms with cwm built in
stock rom firmware is found on my firmware thread - Links either in signature or top of firmware thread
Tried it already on a lot if version (XXKI6, XXLK3 and another ones), not working, but I'll try one more time today.

make sure you are using the firmware from my thread (the ones you have quoted are old firmwares) - they are wipe packs and will format your system when flashing
I would use this one if you are in Europe

Then there is either a problem with the way you are flashing it or you flashed wrong files on your phone in the past and you may need to include the pit file with the rest of the firmware - you can find the pit file for galaxy y 5360 with an easy google search - there is an xda thread with it
All firmware on my thread is confirmed working and the Europe one I have used myself - So if using the pit file doesn't work along with the firmware file then I would take it to a repair shop

you flash it all at the same time
PIT and your wipe firmware flashed at the same time haven't fixed it, the FS is broken. Any other ways or I have to prepare money for the service center?
try to format all partition ( data+system+cache ) and flash a stock rom
