i9003 ownerneed help

hello all , im a new owner of i9003 galaxy S. Recently decided to upgrade my firmware ( had 2.2.1 as default one ). Used Odin . Upgraded to 2.3.6 ( KPQ ) with no problems. Noticed one strange thing , when trying to turn off wifi , it will keep "turning off" state forever , and u cant turn it on after that . Tried 2.3.4/2.3.5 firmwares but they all seem to have this problem.Flashed back to 2.2.1 - no problem , everything seems perfect .

How u flashed???? First flash xxkpe then flash xxkpq. Then delete dalvik cache from recovery mode.

first flashed to KPM
then KPN
Then KPQ.
Overall tried almost all recent firmwares.
O.S. Can you tell me the exact steps to delete that file plz ?

What is your Froyo version ?

Before flashing xxkpe have you selected the latona .pit file and selected repartition in Odin?
Follow the xxkpe flashing instructions to the letter, then proceed to flash xxkpq over that (just select it's .tar file as the pda in Odin).

Ye , followed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133787 instruction very carefully , still get that "turning off" problem.
the problem is
2.2.1 - Poor performance compared to 2.3.5/6 - if not that id stay on it

Vurrut Rom + Kernel

So, i flashed Bam's kernel and ran into some problems, sometimes the phone get's stuck and the screen doesn't come back on when someone is calling you, the screen is black and you just hear the ringtone, you'll have to remove the battery..
This doesn't happen alot but is very annoying.
So i searched around, and seems like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1451218 is better..
Any confirmation?
What are the steps of installing both his kernel and rom?
I didn't find anything about installing in his thread.
Currently running stock JPKPH and latest Bam kernel v13.
Thanks!

First download XXKPE and XXKPQ here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1004647
then follow the guide here on how to flash XXKPQ
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14933114
Once your firmware is XXKPQ
download CF-ROOT here for xxkpq
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351056
then flash via odin select PDA then browse cf root
after rooting download the kernel and the rom in the link you've given,
go to CWM recovery and install zip (browse the vurrutROM) once installed flash the kernel through odin same step (PDA in odin).
Hope it helped.

Just a question, which one is more stable, Using the stock rom and bam's custom kernel, Or Vurruts rom and his kernel?
And if following the steps CORRECTLY can anything bad happen just because of badluck? i mean if you do it right, the result is 100% success?

Ive personally never tried both BAM's and vurrut rom . Maybe you can go to the thread and check on the feedback.
and if you follow the instructions properly nothing's gonna happen and yes if its done right its 101% success. Make sure you take a backup before proceeding with anything (Who knows it might not be you lucky day ) . Just kiddin bro ... Go ahead ..

Hi Gur-i
Even i faced a similar problem two days back, but i could not see language selection screen.
I could only see "SAMSUNG" logo and it kept on looping.
What i did? - I installed XXKPE than installed DDLF2 and it worked.
If you want details you can check this link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1837711

just go to download mode and flash another firmware, that should get you somewhere

Installing DDLF2 (or say any 2.3.6 FW) on any rom makes your phone go in bootloop as there is only 1 file to flash. Hence 1st u need to install old FW with all 4 files and after which, u can falsh DDLF2 (or any 2.3.6 FW of ur choice.)
The instruction (here):
OR:
You will need following before beginning installation:
1) Flsher Program + PIT (ODIN3 + Latona.PIT)
2) Firmware: I9003XXKPE
3) Firmware: I9003DDLF2 (http://www.hotfile.com/dl/161660941/8fd61ef/I9003DDLF2_I9003ODDLF2_INU.zip.html)
STEPS:
1) Open ODIN. Connect ur phone in download mode. just flash Latona.PIT file with Re-Partition selected.
2) Once flashed, Ur phone will reboot automatically but will show only black screen with background light. Do not worry. Open the back cover, remove the battery, insert battery and boot again in download mode.
3) Close ODIN. Open it again. Now we will be installing XXKPE.
i) Select Latona.PIT File in ODIN. (Make sure the "Re-Partition" is unchecked once you have selected PIT file)
ii) Select "APBOOT_I9003XXKPE_CL409735_REV08_user_low_ship.tar.md5" in bootloader.
iii) Select "CODE_I9003XXKPE_CL409735_REV08_user_low_ship.tar.md5" in PDA.
iv) Select "MODEM_I9003XXKPE_REV_00_CL1041909.tar.md5" in PHONE.
v) Select "GT-I9003-CSC-MULTI-OXAKPE.tar.md5" in CSC.
Now flash it.
this will successfully install XXKPE on ur device. Once your flash is complete, ur device will boot and will ask for initial config. U can set it or just power off ur device and boot again in download mode.
Now will install DDLF2.
i) Select Latona.PIT File in ODIN. (Make sure the "Re-Partition" is unchecked once you have selected PIT file)
ii) Just select "I9003DDLF2_I9003ODDLF2_I9003DDLE1_HOME.tar.md5" in your PDA and flash.
U are now on DDLF2.

Hi, searched everywhere, but the files hosted on hotfile are all gone?
Please help. thank you
can anyone please upload to google drive? I really need these files:
Firmware: I9003XXKPE
Firmware: I9003DDLF2
so I could fix my phone.
Thanks

its not at all true... who said you that... you can always return to stock and even unroot your phone....
but for clean return connect your phone into download mode and through ODIN flash the correct 2.3.6 stock firmware

calm down and take a breather is the first thing. nothing good comes of being stressed or being in a panicked frenzy when working on phones, especially someone else's phone. Its perfectly fixable at this point so take some deep breaths and relax.

one thing you should never forget, no matter how good a friend is, if there is an option between you or his mobile, he will always pick his mobile
never f*ck with others mobiles....its just not worth the risk....my friend offered me his s2 to flash a custom rom on but i just told him no....too risky
