what's the difference between T959VUKB5 and KB1? I have KB5 so can I flash my ROM with KB1? I am running on Froyo 2.2.1 and wanted to get 2.2.4 or 2.3 and i dont see any KB5 ROMS.
I am on KB5 too and its an old update. The latest one is KD1.

Just to be clear; you are on KB5; the most recent stock ROM (with some nice fixes) is KD1.
Flash Whitehawx's stock deodexed KD1 here.
The included features/fixes can be found here and are cut 'n' pasted below:
Beginning May 2nd, Samsung Galaxy S 4G users will begin receiving an Over the Air (“OTA”) software update. The update will be staggered, and users will receive the update randomly over the next few weeks. If you would like to manually install the upgrade, you can do so using the Samsung Kies Mini software on a PC or Mac. Kies Mini can be downloaded from http://www.TinyURL.com/KiesMini (http://www.TinyURL.com/KiesMini) (not case sensitive).
The OTA updates the software version to version T959VUVKD1. The previous version was T959VUVKB5. This is NOT an operating system upgrade to Android 2.3 (Gingerbread).
This maintenance release includes various bug fixes and enhancements based on customer feedback.
Call functions
•Incoming caller number displayed instead of name (for customers who subscribe to Caller Name ID service)
Memory
•Phone freezes, soft reboots, lags, or has black screen
Messaging (SMS, MMS, e-mail)

You mean you got the KD1 ROM in the first link.
The second was informative only to list the fixes going from KB5 to KD1 stock ROM.
Follow pixelbrain's excellent guide to the letter to use Odin to flash that ROM to your phone, using Whitehawx's KD1 ROM in step 1. DO NOT use a PIT! You'll brick your phone. Otherwise, you can't go wrong with this procedure. Try it, don't be afraid, search the forums when you have questions and you'll learn in no time. I'm still a noob too BTW. I've soft bricked my SGS about a dozen times but always brought it back to life with Odin! There is a ton of great information on these forums, and the great likelihood is that your questions have already been answered. Search and you'll find it.
Good luck!
And just for clarification.
T959VUVKB5 - First released build
T959VUVKC1 - Unreleased leaked engineering build
T959VUVKD1 - Latest released build

Here's a link for how the recovery which you will need once you root the phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076967&highlight=root . At the beginning of the paragraph, there's a link for "One Click Root".. just follow the instructions, it's pretty simple.
As for EB13, no she does not have it.. her phone is running on EC05 as shown in "Build- FROYO.EC05" which is just a version of Froyo (android 2.2) as is EB13..
Were you going to install a ROM on the phone once it's rooted or..? and if so, do you need to know how to flash the ROMs?
**and for future reference, you might want to try to search the forum.. there are wikis that would have told you what EB13 and EC05 are, and the link for rooting the phone was actually the first result when you search "root" haha.
Just figured I would warn you because some people on here get pretty pissed off when someone posts a new thread about something that they just yelled at 10,000 other people for

and this link roots and installs a recovery?
again thanks sorry for dumb questions
ok, for starters, ec05 is the sprint distributed rom version, as would be eb13, or eh17 or any other 2letter2number codes on the epic forums. i'd stay on ec05, it seems to be the most stable rom/modem combination. you can flash most any rom (including the eh17 leak) from the ec05 rom, and you'll suffer less reboots or problems (unless otherwise stated by the rom developer) as long as you wipe properly. as you seem to be familiar with rooting, remember to make nandroids at any important step. as far as roms, i like the simply aosp and the cm7, but they have no touchwiz or sprint bloatware. if you like that, try srf.
finally, please be respectful of the forum rules and post in the proper place. this should be in q&a
edit: the 'E' stands for the year, 2011, and the 'C' stands for the month, march. this rom was released in march of this year. EC05 was the last official release, and was froyo. anything after EC (ED, EG, EH) are all gingerbread leaks that are less reliable.

EH17 is the lastest Android 2.3 "Gingerbread" leak for the Epic, besides the Froyo ROMs its the most stable.
Yes this will auto root and install recovery. To boot into recovery hold down Power, Camera, volume down.
After you flash the first link I posted, boot up shut down and go back into recovery and flash the second link. after that you should be good to go.
ANd it's cool man but like they said, post in Q and A, no one minds helping though.
**Personally I prefer the Gingerbread leaks over Froyo due to the speed.**

Could you list links to each modem individually along with the package. The package is nice and all, but I hate to have to download the entire package when a new modem comes out. Either that or dig through the leak thread for the first person to package it up. That is what made GTGs thread so amazing, having the individual link to each modem.
Update: tried KK1, got abysmal data speeds <.2 Mbps, KI3 is still king, followed by KJ2.

He can use the links from gtg's thread for the older modems, then each of the others has been uploaded and posted somewhere else, either in their own thread or in the Leak thread for that release.

for the people who dont know the releases by their build-names.
Okay I literally just got this phone yesterday and I see all this talk about Gingerbread and how great it is so I decided I want to try it. I know next to nothing about all the technicalities about this phone so I youtube'd how to do it and found this video that I plan to use to help me in the process. - watch?v=YuURgkUYn1A
So if I follow that process and use the files he uses, I should have Gingerbread and still have my connection to AT&T, GPS, and WiFi? Also, when AT&T finally does release it officially, will I be able to just go to Software Update on the menu and get the official AT&T Firmware and not have to worry about all this technical stuff again?

Try THIS link out, its got pretty much everything you want to know to get started(including vids). The only things that don't work on GB currently HDMI and on some of the roms, bluetooth. If you want to get the official OTA when it drops you will have to go back to stock, easiest way is to use THIS method. Also when GB does drop, Devs most likely will make their own roms based on the official GB.
Once your rooted and have recovery installed use THIS thread to find the ROM you want...
This is just a rough overview, so make sure you READ carefully and take your time, any question you have is usually answered in the appropriate thread.
Here is a link to the latest AT&T Gingerbread leak. Use Odin to flash it, and if you stick with the included stock kernel, everything works as it should. It looks very close to being ready for release. If you want it rooted, flash Entropy's kernel and then use CWM recovery and the Superuser zip you can find on here to install su. Then, flash the stock kernel again to keep everything working (video, bluetooth, etc.).:

That's legit Dman, it seems you learn a new trick on a daily basis; ports, roms and now kernels. I'm loving how the infuse development is still kickin!
So back on topic lol. Xia, Dman's CatyRom is one of the most recent GB roms (and plenty more), it's based off of the leaks from At&t. Once your ready, look into that!
Edit: Nevermind my question, dman, thanks anyway for what you're doing.
To the OP, a good AOSP Gingerbread rom that I keep coming back to is Serendipity VII. I hope that MikeyMike will still come back to update that one when we get the official AT&T Gingerbread.
You can find that here.: http://serendipityinfuse.weebly.com/

My cousin is having issues with his phone and asked me if I could help him flash back to stock. I'm doing some forum searches but I can't seem to clearly find an odin rom to return to stock (as in out of the box T-Mobile US stock, unrooted). I'm not familiar with the different samsung versioning, ie. kd5, etc....so I think that's what's making it difficult for me to understand which to use. (I'm assuming it's got to be out there, and that I just don't understand what I'm seeing in my search results to figure it out. The lettering is confusing the crap out of me.)
I would appreciate it if someone who knows what's what can help and just point me to a link to the rom to flash? I've used Odin before, so I think I'm good from there. Thanks in advance.

...sounds like this one-click "Fully back to stock UVKJ6" is what I need, can someone smarter than me confirm this?

I'm not 100% about the latter one you posted; I'd have to go read through the whole thread. However Raver posted an ODIN version of Samsung's official KJ6 ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1353176
Make sure you factory data reset after you flash to clear your cousin's data off of the phone.

Yes, just make sure it's the Odin one.
Android 2.2 (KD1 Froyo) was stock on my phone purchased in November 2011. To obtain a non-rooted version with no alterations to the recovery mode, check the official samsung site here:
http://ars.samsung.com/customer/usa...ID=2&PROD_SUB_ID=557&PROD_ID=560&AT_ID=373879
All the other versions I've ever ODIN'd including Ravers "KJ6 stock only" came pre-rooted.
KD1 was fast and smart but 2.3.6 Gingerbread (KJ6) is faster, even though an official GB release was made for the SGS4G, it is not considered stock equipment.

Either one since they're both official roms.
Stock Firmware For Samsung Phones.
You can go to samfirmware.com and get stock firmware for your phone. At the top menu click on Mobile and choose your device. You have to register to do this but, it doesn't cost anything.
Hope this helps.

We have a thread with the KD1 complete stock firmware.
Samfirmware.com doesn't have the files on their site anymore. They are SamMobile.com now.
The thread I link to and the files on SamMobile are the same.
Well if you do want a stock KJ6 rom you can use the one click I made here:
kd1-stock-sgh-t959v-one-click.jar
Hi am a total noob here so i deicided to update my galaxy S 4G to 2.3.6 but i don't like how it looks or what it changed to the phone and i basically want to go back to stock firmware or 2.3.4.
I know you can use Odin to complete this task but am not so sure which version or how to perfrom this task...so i need a brief tutorial on how to bring it back to normal (download links would be helpful) Thank You
Did u update your phone OTA?
Also 2.3.4 is GB which is basically the same as 2.3.6.
I think whar you want is to go back to froyo which is 2.2.
Just ssearch for the KD1 file to flash your phone with Odin back to Froyo.

Prior to the 2.3.6 update in Kies Mini the stock firmware was Froyo-based (2.2.1 which was KD1). If you're wating to go back, check the Dev section. There's a sticky for the Bible that can point you to some other ROMs. Search the Dev section, too, if you're looking for a specific ROM/version.

That first link will get you onto KF1, which was a leaked GB ROM. The second is KD1 (Froyo) but has root and those things. I don't know of any non-rooted Froyo based ROMs on here, though someone may be able to correct me on that.
I looked in the file and that particular ROM does not have the boot loaders. Give me a few minutes & I'll try to find you a link.
We don't have true stock kd1. Someone is supposedly working on it. You can get close or....call t mobile and tell them you don't like the upgrade.

Try this one. It's KC1 and flashable via ODIN. Once you have this, then use the KD1 you found in the Bible to get to KD1.

+1 to what Bassmanjames said regarding no stock KD1. You're kinda stuck until one is developed.
Its okay thank you guys for trying and helping.
Who knows maybe Samsung just might release 2.3.7 (highly doubt it thought)

Definitely doubtful but I don't think you'd see much of a user interface (UI) change. That would probably come from getting Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) which, again, doubtful but we keep hoping
Let me know if you need help getting that to flash via ODIN.
I highly recommend Valhalla Final, which is a custom ROM, but is stock solid and stable and is 2.3.6.
I believe it will be the best we could get out of this phone.
Samsung will not give us ICS.
Besides, according to Google changelogs the only difference between 2.3.6 & 2.3.7 is the Google wallet service.
