Dude I already checked ....theres no ddkb2 firmware on sam firmWare

There is no ddkb2 stock rom as yet for indian users. You can try xxkb3 which is reported to be better.

But my phone is showing that it has ddkb2 plus cant I somehow backup my rom and then flash it?

I can provide you with flashable backup(ROM) of DDKB2 but you will have to try it AT YOUR OWN RISK.

I did a full factory reset and everything is fine now...though what are the risks involved in flashing the rom you have?....i mean why is there a danger in flashing it?

I dumped it from my phone and have not got a chance to test it. Although it should be 100% fine ROM
Will upload once I test it on my own phone. Right now busy with some other important things

Flashing danger is
One a refusal to read the FAQS or how to for the rom .
Two use of wrong tools or wrong rom .
Three a fault on PC during a flash .
But most flashes that go bad on SGS can be recovered .

hi,
we are stuck trying to flash DDKB2:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15457294&postcount=626
can u share your own phone's backup ROM? many thanks

the factory reset buttons (vol up+ home + power) is not showing anything on my sgsl, wat actually happens during this reset? is there any rule to press a button first?

Is your phone booting up? Is it completely stock? Did you not see the Q&A thread which has been stickied?
The vol up + menu + power button combo is to access the recovery menu.
If you can't access that, I'd personally recommend that u flash CF-ROOT, as that would give you better recovery options. For instructions on that go to the relevant thread by Skin1980 in this (i.e. Developer) section.
BTW, the "KMC" in your user id: are you from KMC Manipal?

Hey can any one suggest where will I get stock ROM for i9003, India? I am trying to unroot the phone. I read that one of the ways of doing it is installing the stock ROM again. I rooted it using Super one click but cant unroot it using the same. Current verion-2.3.6. Thanx in advance!

Tried to flash the rom many times but cudn't..

I've not gone back to stock so have no advice, what I did find some months ago was that the Rom I was trying to flash was corrupt.
You sure the download is OK?

How to RIP a Stock ROM??

Ok, so My baseband is latin american.. (Claro) I accedently updated to another Baseband :s and I took it to the Main Dept. They restored by phone back to Froyo... Dx Is there a Way I can Update it without changing basebands? But the REAL Question, is there a way to RIP the original ROM from a Phone?

ripping is easy just copy /system to /sdcard,
making rom:- make changes create a flash able zip and you are done

Does it Preserve the Baseband??? That's what's really important to me

Your baseband will change only if you flash a stock rom with odin...
If you flash any of the custom roms present here, using custom recovery, your baseband won't be affected...

So I just copy /system into a zip inside /sdcard for a back up?
Then is there a way to get 2.3.4 without using the Stock ROM?

Ask the samsung care people to upgrade it to gb...

Damn. And Kies? D: It's hard to download one regarding the fact that Im Claro PR... (not Chile nor Mexico)
Although I DO Remember Flashing to 2.3.4 via Recovery and Not via Odin :s

Question to Claro Users (if Anyone Reads this) Is Chile Stock ROM supported in Puerto Rico ?? :s

[Guide][Receive OTA after root][keep apps/data][GT-I9500][5.0.1]

a lot of users are having this problem and if you want to receive an OTA you have to flash the stock unrooted firmware that will cause lose of data.
this guide will show you how to receive OTA again without losing your stuff
This works on GT-I9500 ONLY! (Lollipop 5.0.1 Recovery)
This also should work on any other model, but you have to replace the recovery with your model!
Steps:
1- Go to SuperSU and scroll down to "Full unroot" then reboot.
2- Download This file to PC and extract it.
3- Go to download mode by pressing the power key + home key + volume down key at the same time, then press volume up.
4- Flash the file via Odin (AP) or (PDA)
go to check the system status, you will find it Official
you can now receive OTA.
Q&A:
What is OTA (Over The Air)? Its an update which you can receive over wifi or mobile data.
What do i get from OTA? Well, if you root your device you wont be able to receive an update again, unless from flashing firmware via Odin.
- Why im still on custom status? Because you modified your system.
- What kind of modifying? Installing busybox, editing or deleting or changing any app or file system.
and some times xposed.
- How do i restore the old app? You can restore them by flashing firmware or by restoring Nandroid backup.
- Then what is the use of your guide? Well my guide helps in first place the rooted not the modded onces.
and always do Nandroid of the original system apps+data
you are still having your apps, data, pics, vids, etc...
you can root again at anytime.
check my thread for rooting if you want
im not responsible for any bricks

thank you...

Your welcome!

Hi there,
Thanks for the guide, just thinking you may want to say what option in Odin to put the file and what OTA stands for, for the noobs.
Just a thought.

At some point the update maybe canceled, because the update checks for the apps before the installation, always do a backup of your phone then remove what you want, after you want to update just restore the system folder from the backup

If you can see the stock recovery then check the SuperSU app again and maybe you are having a custom kernel

So i need to unroot it as well ? Anyway flashed via odin original stock russian lollipop rom just to check for any update and the flashed twrp and rooted it back. Just that it takes 10 mins or more to do all this. Thought your small flash file would work .

[6039] How to root after downgrade from MM to LL ?

Hello guys,
I create this thread because I'm facing a difficulty. Here is the situation :
- my 6039Y was rooted and on LL (5.0.2) rom : everything was fine
- still, I wanted to try Marshmallow, so I decided to switch to MM stock rom thanks to Mobile Upgrade Q
- after that, my phone got unrooted and battery life was much worse, si I decided to revert to LL rom : thanks to AlcatelFlasher tool I put back a recovery partition with TWRP, and I loaded a full LL backup that I created
(AlcatelFlasher tool : http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/development/tool-sahara-firehose-test-alcatel-t3454855)
--> everything went fine, but the problem is that I cannot root my phone anymore ! I unlocked bootloader, but nothing happend when I try to install SuperSU 2.46. The message says everything went fine but it is still not rooted.
Any idea of how to root my phone again ? Thanks a lot

Alcatel flasher isn't ready to write any other partition than boot and recovery yet. What kind of LP backup have you done? Nandroid? Have you simply restored it over MM ROM?

Hi : I had done a full Nandroid backup (10Gb !) that I fully restored here... still, does not work
I was thinking about using a VPN and connect with an ip of a country where MM update is not available : maybe it will restore my phone to proper stock LL ?

No, it depends on your device variant&region (or CU reference).
Maybe you can ask somebody with stock LL to share a full backup of his entire list of partitions (can get it through ADB dd method) and restore them in your phone.
Type *#07# on dialer and post your CU ref.

Hi,
It's a 6039Y phone. Well, it seems complicated, maybe I'll wait for MM 6039 rom to be rooted... I'm losing hope
