Guys flashing roms is a big responsibility. Read the guides. The latest version is Kh2. This is a 2.3.4 Rom. If you want old 2.2, which is easier to flash, then you should use kd1.

Hi I flashed "[ROM-Leak][ODIN] Gingerbread 2.3.4 T959VUVKG4" rom to my phone and when I went to the local t-mobile store they told me that my headphone jack isnt working and needs to be sent in for warranty replacement.... what do I need to do to set this up to stock and the current rom so tmobile doesnt void my warranty.... or to flash using ODIN?
follow the noobs guide to odin in the bible
I know how to use ODIN..... the question is do I need to do anything to the phone to downgrade it to 2.2.1 Stock.... or just flash it and done?
Just flash a 2.2.1 stock rom on your phone, and you are done. if it already has root, you can un-root with superoneclick

I'm looking to trade my Galaxy 4G S to a friend and its been rooted and I currently have this ROM installed :
(ROM-Leak)][ODIN] Gingerbread 2.3.4 T959VUVKG4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183413
So if I want to give it to her with the stock stuff on it, do I just go into the stock Recovery and wipe everything??
I basically want to give it to her stock as if she just opened it up from the box...
I'm getting the G2x in return.
you have to Odin back to KC1.
Its by whitehaxw
But these ROMS that are stock are still rooted arent they??
I want it to be completely stock.. bloatware, NOT rooted and all.
So your suggest will do that?
Unroot it with superoneclick
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
flash kc1 and have it replace bootloaders
then flash kd1 that has root..
use super 1 click and then de root the device..
wala stock
Be sure you flash RaverX3X's KC1 though. If you want to give her the phone 100% stock, you need the Froyo bootloaders.
I flashed this rom recently and everything was working fine, but I got stuck at bootloop after flashing the kernel using sgs flasher. So I flashed the non rooted version of this leak using odin. Now I can't root my phone using SOC. How can I root it? Would flashing the zImage from this rom using odin work? Any help would be appreciated.
There is no way to root the stock kernel...that's why I made a rooted version...to flash the stock kernel you have to disable voodoo lagfix in recovery....I posted that in op

Thanks a lot for the quick reply! Weird thing, I read that part but couldn't find voodoo on my CWM. Anyway I guess I'm gonna stock back to UCKD5 or something and then root/3e/CWM on top of it and later flash your rom.
Thanks a lot for the rom! Love UCKL2 so far!!!

To be able to root the official (non rooted) leaked GB roms, you just flash a custom kernel like Entropy's daily driver using Heimdall or Odin. Then, you have to install su and Superuser either manually with adb or with a CWM flashable zip. It's really not too hard to do. Once it's rooted, you just flash the stock kernel again for working video, etc. That's how I do it anyway.

Hi,
Just wanted to sell my SGS 4g and flash it with valhalla 3.5 firmware.
I just flashed Teamacid 4.0.4 firmware and it worked nice for several days.
Then I wanted to flash KG4 via Odin, But it gave me some error after the flash in the yellow text base screen.Can't access to /system/csc/TMB/system/, But it managed to flash the rom.
I read in google it has something to do with the bootloader.
I tried afterward to flash KJ1 via ODIN, But although ODIN was successful - it didn't updated the rom to KJ1.
I needed to root the phone, So I used the zimage+root then the zimage patch with the red piranha fish and it got the phone rooted.
For some reason I couldn't flash the valhalla 3.5 rom to the machine. It said it was sucessful, but it didn't changed to valhalla after reboot.
I did managed to flash CM7.2, But I wanted the valhalla......
is it possible that the teamacid 4.0.4 rom changed some file/bootloader in a way I couldn't go back to 2.3.4 flawlessly ?
Do a Heimdall One-Click to KJ6. When the CSC error comes up, ignore it. It flashed fine. That warning is always present. Then do what you wish (install valhalla, etc.).

Thank you m4x and itzik.
I will do as you both suggested, and hopefully could flash the wanted rom in the end.
Ok ,my girlfriend bought a new infuse and now she wants a custom ROM preferably ics on it ! It's on 2.2.1 ATM so I read around n as far as I could find out here is what I need to do :
1. Use Odin stock GB package to flash stock GB, I found a thread but it says it had no bootloaders. This is the confusing part shouldn't the Odin have GB bootloaders ?
2. Once I m on GB bootloaders if I don't have root n cwm I flash a kernel to get those
3.then I flash a ROM as per instructions in OP
Am I right ? O am I missing something? Also would be a great help if someone would tell me which is the safest method to get GB bootloaders on infuse ? Thanks a lot in advance

No, not really any of that is necessary. Root the phone on 2.2.1, install CWM via ROM manager (found in Google play), download and install Cyanogenmod 7 (found at cyanogenmod.com) on her phone (no matter what version, just v7), then flash an ICS ROM the same way as the Cyanogenmod 7 ROM, no other stuff.
ROM install instructions:
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Install (Gapps if required)
Reboot

Don't take his word for it, as I don't think he even has an Infuse. Cyanogen doesn't officially support the Infuse at the moment, so you won't find a CM7 rom there for the Infuse. Since you are still on 2.2 and have root, you can use Rom Manager from the Play Store to install recovery. You'll note that there isn't a choice for the Infuse in the device list. Choose Galaxy S i9000, and that recovery will work for the Infuse (Don't try to use i9000 roms on the Infuse, though, because they won't work without being properly ported.). Once you get CWM recovery, choose your rom from the Infuse development section here, and follow the instructions there for installation. We also don't advise using Rom Manager for much else, as some have had issues on the Infuse. It's best to do nandroid backups, rom flashes, etc. directly in CWM recovery on this device.
By the way, the previous poster has a Galaxy S i9000, and his instructions for flashing an ICS rom aren't correct for our device either. Be sure to follow the instructions found in any of the rom threads here once you get CWM recovery.
All that said, since you mentioned Odin, you could also just flash Option C with Odin from HERE, and you'll have AT&T Gingerbread with root, CWM recovery, and a bunch of other goodies. This is a good base from which to flash any other rom you'll find in the dev section.
You also asked about bootloaders for Gingerbread. If you take issue with seeing rainbow artifacts in recovery and in the boot animation (the only issue that you will have without them), then you will need to flash them separately. We don't include them in Odin packages, because a failed bootloader install is really just about the only way you can hard brick an Infuse. If you can sucessfully flash other items in Odin, and are on Gingerbread or ICS, download and extract THIS package, and flash the tar.md5 in Odin. In seconds, you'll have the bootloaders, and will never need to flash them again.

Thanks a ton for the elaborate detail I.would try the Odin method as I an very comfortable with it but I've last question since u said that those packages don't have bootloaders , when I flash those Odin packages I will have GB on the phone but no GB bootloaders ? U mean I will run a GB ROM on froyo bootloaders? It's that even possible? I ask this because on captivate when I moved from froyo to GB we flashed Odin along with bootloaders so I had a GB ROM with GB bootloaders in fact other we were asked to first flash GB bootloaders n then flash a ROM ! And if that it's possible then all I have to do is just Odin that GB package without the bootloaders and then flash the bootloaders once and for all, right? Sorry for being a noob in this section but it's better being a noob rather than hard bricking a infuse lol

Yes, you can have and run Gingerbread on the phone without GB bootloaders. The only side effect will be that you will see rainbow distortion in recovery and during the boot animation. Other than that, on the Infuse, Gingerbread runs fine on Froyo bootloaders. So, you are right. Odin the GB package without the bootloaders, and when that's done flash the bootloaders. You won't have to flash the bootloaders again as they can't be downgraded. Froyo runs fine on the upgraded bootloaders, too, by the way.
Oh sweet ! Thanks a ton will flash it now , she has been eating my head to get rid of the at n t bloatware finally I will get her phone on ics thanks a ton for pointing me in the right direction and bearing with my noobish questions ! Thanks to everyone

If you have no rainbows or glitches, then the bootloaders that are on the phone are fine. If you are using Aeon 1.4, and don't have any glitches in recovery, then it is safe to assume that you most likely have the GB bootloaders. Some kernels have workarounds for the rainbow artifacts, so if you flash something later and find that you have rainbow distortion, you can always flash bootloaders at that time. For now, if all is good, then there is no need to worry about bootloaders. To answer your question, though, the best way to know is to check recovery and boot animation. If there is no distortion, and everything boots properly, then you have the proper bootloaders for your setup.
Thank you for the fast reply. Yes i dont have any problem there. Reason i wish to make sure is- my phone no longer recognised in pc hemidall or odin, tried all but failed. It charge with usb but no luck in download mode. Willing to try ics so anxious.

Yeah, those issues aren't related to your bootloaders. You'll want to try different USB ports, another cable, uninstall and reinstall your Samsung USB drivers (and your Heimdall libusb driver for one specific USB port), etc. But, the bootloaders aren't to blame for your issues there.
Ye i tried. I'm on ubuntu so heimdall is my choice. Usb could be board problem. So willing to play safe so that i wont got in situation where i need heimdall i know my chance is slim for ics considering the issue that may occur.

If you are that anxious to flash ICS, you can do it without the bootloaders.. you will just have the rainbows with which you can live for a while.
Then later when you get a chance of using Windows, use Odin to flash them.
