My AT&T Captivate is alright using the Odin 2.2 for galaxy S update, but it has bugs because I'm pretty sure the one released was pre-release.
is there any way to flash the rogers 2.2 update on? Does anyone have it? I'm in Canada, and sim unlocked. I tried to use kies and it says unsupported device...

Is there any one click flashes for cognition or firefly? I still haven't been able to get my clockwork working even though I rooted this JI6 os, or figure out how to use these zip files. I would prefer something that works with Odin or something like it if possible. (where is the link to the latest Odin? I did a seach for odin and got about 900 results and couldn't find it).
The other day I updated my phone to 2.3.4 using odin. after that I had a horrible wifi signal and i kept losing my data connection all together. So I flashed back to Froyo 2.2.1. I am so confused because my phone kept force closing, I did a factory reset and it stopped but it says my kernal version is 2.6.32.9...is that normal? Also how do I go about flashing a good rom to my phone? The way it is now it is soooo slow which is why i updated to the 2.3.4...any information would be helpful as I am ready to throw my phone out the window.

Which 2.3.4 ROM did you flash via ODIN? KG4/KG6 both show less wifi signal but I actually haven't seen a difference in speed. I'm on this one right now:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1187293
The way to properly get to that is by doing the following:
1. ODIN
[ROM-Leak][ODIN] Gingerbread 2.3.4 T959VUVKG4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183413
2. Then boot up like normal and wait for it to load up into the system.
3. Turn off your phone again (shutdown) and put it back into download mode.
4. ODIN this to get CWM+Root http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194032 (use the ODIN version)
5. Keep lagfix disabled via the voodoo menu in recovery after you flash the CWM+root+Voodoo EXT4 package in the link in step 4.
6. Boot into the system. It's up to you, I flashed this

Which is a deodexed build which allows you to theme etc.
Some people have had issues getting onto EXT4 partitions while on a gingerbread ROM. I had a few issues myself. Needless to say there are several places to read about how to get EXT4 working on all partitions if you want to.
Best of luck, hope this helps.
Well to be completely honest, I don't know anything about partitions. All I know is that I updated my phone and then all of a sudden I had a horrible wifi connection and my data connection would just drop out all together and say "searching". I would have to reboot my phone 2 or 3 times to get it working again. What is a good rom to update to? Is have the kernal build that I do going to be an issue?

Ive had my samsung infuse rooted and something happened? had to reboot back to stock... superoneclick seems to get stuck and not root my phone!! does it not work anymore? even when i download it from shortfuse... Ive dissabled usb debug....ive enabled usb debug....nothing works help
yeah I had the same issue with super one click on stock stock from GTG's unbrick
you may want to update to UCKE5/one or two builds above the stock build.
thanks how do i get this? from where? I cannot seem to get my cwm to open in the red!
you could probably just run this in odin to get back to UCKE3 which was stock in North America if you bought the phone a month after it came out. (Was stock for my phone when I bought it a month after it came out anyway).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112555
This has the bonus of already being rooted btw.
Anyway, UCKD5 is the rom that doesn't work with superoneclick properly from what I can tell which was stock when it came out and is GTG's ultimate unbricker's rom.
Don't use the pit because you most likely won't need it (your phone boots and all that stuff, right. If so, don't bother with repartitioning)
From here you're rooted and can setup modified 3E with root explorer and CWM with whatever you wanna use to set it up.
I used "[ODIN][UCKD5] Odin - Stock (100% or Root+3e)" (from Super Thread) to get to stock.
Then went to market and loaded SGS Kernel Flasher.
Then I downloaded Infused GB Core A2 kernel.
After I flashed the kernel, I had red CWM and went from there. Worked really well!
issues still
Download? How? Multiupload no good! mega no good either
They've been mirrored. I think. Not near pc.. No mirrors from me.

I have a Nexus s with 4.0.3 flashed via bootloader.How can i downgrade to 2.3.x without root,cwm or debug(cause it isn't working) ?
i've tried several methods but none of them worked(Odin,Heimdall)
They all requires me to enter download mode with debug enabled.My debug mode is enabled but as far as i read on xda,the degub is not working in this version of ICS.
my question is : how can i downgrade to ANY firmware from this ICS version
P.S. Entering recovery mode is not an option...the phone simpli enters in a recovery/download mode - loop and keeps restarting.
Please respond fast.10x
The way I did it was to download Clockwork Mod app and scroll down to where it says stock... then 2.3.3. Once u flash that you'll lose root and an update to 2.3.x will be prompted to ya. If it doesn't then Google (Download) 2.3.4(x) and manually update. What model do u have btw?
- Google
You need to root is the basic moral here. Nothing else is really worth the effort of getting it done.
Hi
If the procedure for the nexus is the same as it is for the S2.
It should be straight forward.
Download your ROM, if its Orange you want here is a good link, I used it myself today:
http://androidromupdate.com/2012/02...-i9100p-firmware-updates-list-and-stock-roms/
The ROM I used was the NON WIPE type - I9100BVKJ4_I9100ORAKJ4_ORA
I include a picture of what I did.
I was initially on a custom ICS 4.0.3 XXLPH and have gone back to Orange stock rom.
Load the integrated Rom just into the PDA window - connect your phone in download mode and start, and that should be it!
Don't check re-partition or anything else.
Keep trying it will work.
I also had an initial prob whereby I installed the wrong kernel and the phone screen was messed up and seemed to be bricked and to get it back I loaded odin up.
Put phone in download mode.
Checked re-partition - unchecked 'auto reboot and f.reset'
Used a PIT (partition file)
Used a kernel file suitable for the S2 in the PDA window and pressed 'start'
This seems to have repartitioned and wiped the mistake and unbricked the phone.
This loaded and the phone booted - no messed screen.
Then I continued to accomplish the ROM switch over.

Don't do this. The method for the Nexus S is definitely NOT the same as the SGS2, or even the SGS. Although it may be possible to use Odin or Heimdall, it is not recommended. We already have enough freedom to do as we please.
I thought all android / samsung phones would follow the same procedure for flashing new roms or unbricking via Odin?
Kies is useless for updating as we all know.
So what other methods beside Odin or Heimdall can be used on the samsung nexus?
Cheers for clarifying though, I was only tying to be helpful
galaxy 2 ics to gingerbread
dear all
i am much upset that i upgrade my galaxy s2 to ics 4.0.3 , it is much laggy i want to downgrade it to gb 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 , can anybody help me to do this , with the all the steps and downloading links of the exact files , i tried alot many times and when it is done on odin with pass message , cell restarts and with error screen .
thanks in anitcipitation
Regards
Shoaib Hassan
i've just downgraded to 2.3.2 i used the rom wiper from bm and then simply flashed the oxygen rom over it
the only way and easily is odin.just go to downloading.make sure to download the correct modem ,baseband and needed files by cheking your nexus s version.ex.i9020t,i9023 .there are not the same version,and will use different modem,baseband ...
I also want to downgrade from ics to gingerbread too, by pure luck i managed to upgrade to ics (i'm completely new to this) but having had this on my phone for awhile, I want to return to gingerbread...
I'm currently grabbing kernel_I9100xwkj3 (couldnt find xwkj1 anywhere)
and
gt-i9100_o2i_i9100xwkj1_i9100o2ik11_i9100xxk14
to use with odin?
question is... is this all i need and is there anything i need to be aware of?
You need to make use of fastboot and flash the stock GB rom from factory images provided by google, then you can flash cwm and then flash any rom you want
it is because cwm can flash roms with android version up but not down means that you can flash 4.1 if u have 4.0.4 but if you are on 4.0.4 then you cannot flash 2.3.x
Hope it helps
Hi there. I have read quite a few tutorials on rooting my phone. I did have it rooted at one point using odin and a package for cwm. It worked great. I wanted to try out one of the 4.* ICS roms, that worked fine.. sorted that out no problem but there was no gps so I wanted to go back to my rooted 2.3.6.
Went to put it back to standard with stock firmware, that also worked fine. The problem I have now is when I attempt to root using the same files, same settings and same utilities as before, It boots up to the samsung galaxy logo, then reboots and shows the logo again and again in an infinite loop.
I have cleared the user data and cache, and the root appears to work as the recovery program installs correctly, but it will not boot the OS.
When i flashed to stock I used odin.. the 512 pit file, the stock pda, phone and csc files. and that works perfectly but not when I root it!
Any ideas??
****UPDATE
I flashed with stock 2.3.5 firmware so that I could use samsung kies to flash my phone back to 2.3.6 so that it was 100% stock and kies now says that my device does not support firmware upgrades!!!
Seems as nobody can be arsed to answer my question I have researched and answered it myself...
If anybody has the same problem of Kies saying "Your device does not support firmware upgrades" all you have to do is go into the "About phone" section of the settings.. find the baseband version of your phone.. Mine was I9000XXJVT... find the lowest version of android on samfirmwares.com , mine was 2.3.4, install it..
then kies recognizes your phone again and will upgrade it to the latest version..
Oh by the way THANKS FOR YOUR HELP lol
This particular phone for record purposes upgraded to:
PDA:JW4 / PHONE:JW4 / CSC:JW5 (CPW) which im guessing is carphone warehouse..
I tried the samfirmware.com version of the latest CPW firmware they have and kies still said it would not update the firmware
and before all you geeks get on your high horse and say why didnt u do this and why didnt you do that..
I couldn't root my firmware after installing the CPW firmware as mentioned above from samfirmwares.com.. i was in an infinite reboot loop. I could load standard firmware from samfirmwares.com and it would boot fine, but I couldn't root it from that.
My aim was to get it back to standard and go from there.
One question.. pretty obvious really... I have searched high and low and still am yet unable to find a sofrware for BACKING UP my original firmware... this would be a pretty sensible idea??? yes???
