[Q] Need help going back to stock - Samsung Galaxy SL i9003

Hi all.. I helped out a friend to root and install MIUI on his i9003, i myself use a captivate.
These were the steps taken: odin to xxkpe, then odin to xxkp7 then cwm flash to MIUI.
He would like to go back to stock as MIUI is not bug-free and its affecting him. Anyways, i was searching the forum and found a few threads regarding this but I am still confused.
Going back to stock from MIUI/cm7/cm9 from my captivate is just to run odin-1-click and everything is done. Here im using odin v1.85 and wish to go back to I9003DXKP9, as this is the official firmware here.
So in order to go back to stock, i just flash the I9003DXKP9 using odin? Another concern is the I9003DXKP9 firmware has just 1 file :
Code:
I9003DXKP9_I9003OLBKP7_I9003DXKP7_HOME.tar.md5
and when i flashed XXKPE it had 5 files:
Code:
APBOOT_I9003XXKPE_CL409735_REV08_user_low_ship.tar
CODE_I9003XXKPE_CL409735_REV08_user_low_ship.tar
GT-I9003-CSC-MULTI-OXAKPE.tar
latona_20110114.pit
MODEM_I9003XXKPE_REV_00_CL1041909.tar
I also read that if the firmware has only 1 file, just flash the pda and nothing else. So is it safe to assume that the process of going back to stock is just flashing the single firmware for DXKP9 or should i go back to XXKPE and then to DXKP9?? Any help would be greatly appreciated..

its better you first flash xxkpe then one file firmware, if u r reverting back from cm7/ miui/ cm9..
since sometimes phone gets into bootloop when just one file firmware is used to revert back to stock rom...
one file firmware is mainly used to upgrade from another stock firmware...
Hope i helped you..

Thanks, i already looked into that post, it does say all about upgrading but nothing about downgrading/installing the particular fw i want to go back to..

check whether u r installing the right version of cf root...
install exactly the same version as ur fw has...
or go for universal cf root... its way more convenient...
note: i hope u meant xxkpe instead of xxkp3 ....

Problem Rooting Samsung Galaxy S I9003 using Odin

After following kkrraazzyy 's instructions for rooting my Galaxy S I9003 which, according to the comments, seemed to work for a lot of people, I came across a problem.
After selecting the pit file, putting my phone into download mode, connecting the usb, and noting that the COM was recognized by Odin, I clicked start.
The process was running smoothly until it reached the Reset phase. At this point the phone screen's "Downloading" image went blank and has remained blank for a while now.
Help, Please!!
Odin is not use to root..Odin is for flashing firmware..
To flash firmware,follow the guide by Misledz here(Gingerbread only)..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133787
For root, use CF-root by skin1980(For xxkph & JPKP5 only)..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201062
For other froyo version,you can search from this forum..All guide is there~..
I followed the instructions but I'm still getting this blank screen once it reaches the reset! I don't think the phone is booting properly (or at all perhaps)...
Okay so basically here is the problem:
I wanted to root my Samsung Galaxy S I9003 (Build JPKC2). Unfortunately for me, I ended up flashing it instead of rooting it. I used Odin and everything was going smoothly (little did I know I was flashing not rooting) then when it came to the reset phase, my phone screen went from the downloading mode screen to a blank one.
Can someone please help me and tell me what to do?
Also if you need anymore information, please feel free to ask; just bear in mind that I can't access anything on the phone because it doesn't turn on.
LOL !!! u put the file in the PIT location !! lol.. just download kpe and kph and flash using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133787

1- Flash XXKPE file, put all the file in the required box in Odin v1.83 then
1a- 3 check box are CHECK!
2- Flash XXKPH, only 1 required box needed which is PDA.
2a- 2 check box are CHECK!
root
1- Flash CF-Root kernel in Odin v1.83 under PDA.
finish
look the instruction given by member above..

There are 2 method:-
1- CF-ROOT-XXKPH-05.09.2011.tar to flash using odin v1.83 under PDA
2- CF-ROOT-XXKPH-CWM_manager-05.09.2011.zip to flash using ClockWork Recovery
u can find this on 2nd post
thank you! but where is the second post?
lol same thread just u give me before..under 1st post is 2nd post
oh! sorry about that.. thanks
so if I'm using odin i just put CF-ROOT-XXKPH-05.09.2011.tar into the pda and run it?
and that should fix my whole problem, including the boot issue?

maybe u should re-flash again from xxkpe then xxkph..make sure u do the right step..
this is my video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6l6hTuWWjLE
the video looks very helpful but do i put the xxkpe file in pit, pda, bootloader, phone, AND csc? All of them with the same xxkpe file?
yes..put all the xxkpe file in the required box.. put it all together..3 check box there should CHECK. hit start button and wait until boot into the system. then turn off your phone and go to downloading mode again
then
flash xxkph file, which is only 1 file and put it in the PDA..Re-partition should UNCHECK!
hit start button and wait until reboot into phone menu.
after that, turn off ur phone again and go to downloading mode and flash CF-Root
download the XXKPE and XXKPH here:-

HELP! Odin failed during upgrade to ZHKPD

Hi,
I have a i9003 that ran on stock 2.2.1 ROM and I've been having serious SOD problems.
Updated to 2.3.5 ZHKPD last night using KIES. The update was successful but gave me screen blackouts during calls (screen and buttons turned all black whenever I start a call. I heard voice but was never able to turn on the screen again) in addition to SOD problems.
I have then downloaded Odin 1.83, and "I9003ZHKPD_I9003ZZHKP9_I9003XXKPM_HOME.tar" from here and tried to flash my phone again after reading a lot of guides on this forum.
I got a "Can't open the specified file" error from Odin (see attachment). Now when I turn on my phone all I see is a picture with a phone and a computer.
Was the re-partition cause of the problem?
Can someone here please let me know what I can do? To get 2.3.5 back into my phone?
Thanks in advance.
Did u flash XXKPE beefore flashing ???
If you have then try downloading the firmware from another source
I haven't - the "I9003ZHKPD_I9003ZZHKP9_I9003XXKPM_HOME.tar" file is the only one I tried to flash.
It's phone from Hong Kong and I do want to keep something from the stock firmware, such as the Chinese input.
What do you suggest I should do next?
flash it again from xxkpe with the step "re-partition"
Thanks. Did you mean I should first flash it with the "I9003XXKPE" file here?
Will I need the PIT file, and after XXKPE I'll have to flash ZHKPD right?
Well, the only question is: Can you come into download mode?
If you can, just flash KPE>KPD and everything solved.
If you can't get a jig or go to service center.
Thanks. Did you mean I should first flash it with the "I9003XXKPE" file here?
Will I need the PIT file, and after XXKPE I'll have to flash ZHKPD right?

does xxkb3 come with the pit file? the rom thread doesn't specify and I won't download just to find out.
in another thread, someone stated that there is a separate pit file for froyo vs GB, and that you can't use the GB pit file for going back to froyo.
I found a froyo pit file, but I can't confirm how good it is since it's not on the sammy site or here on xda. the page to get the file is here

no, I don't know what it stands for (google could tell me if I was interested...), but the pit file is for designating partition sizes, which is necessary when installing different versions of fw, like froyo vs GB.
See the below link for flashing guide and there you will find the pit file for froyo
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12310540&postcount=1
so ranhoover u mean dat i can follow dis way:-????
xxkpe->xxkb3(twice)->ddkb2(twice)
so should i go in dis way:-????
xxkpe->xxkb3->ddkb2
Who is ran hoover??
XXKB3(twice)-DDKB2(twice)
Dont bother looking at XXKPE!!
If you still want GB after flashing DDKB2 get back here i'll tell you how to do it

If you made a NANDROID(CWM) backup of your GingerBread 2.3.6 firmware, you won´t be able restore it while still on CM10.(as mentioned by MR.Volkf).
I suppose you know that to get back to 2.3.6 you will need to use ODIN to flash the firmwares previously mentioned.
If you´re not familiar with the proper steps involved with ODIN, here´s a great guide on how to do that, thanks to "Misledz".
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133787
Once you get back to GB(2.3.6), then I believe you should be able to restore any GB NANDROID backups that you may have previously made.(From the restore option in CWM recovery mode).
Good Luck!

I think this is what I needed. Just wanted to make sure I have everything when I brick my tablet and need to claim warranty. I hope the Baseband and Stock Recovery need ODIN installation and the installation steps for both are same.
I could not find out any tutorial here, how to use ODIN. If can somebody made one, bcoz there are peoples who wants to go back to stock ROM and this will help them.
Baseband
Version: P3100 DDCLK1
Android :4.1.1
Downliad link:

Stock recovery:

Firmware:

BTW: I am presently with Adi's SungSonic HD Rom:good: and it is better than CM10.1 (My experience, no offense)
@ Adi
Can you please guide me step by step flashing Stock ROM using ODIN.
I googled and know little bit of ODIN flashing..Just need to select PDA and flash it once my phone detected by ODIN.
But I have 3 diff package here..
Recovery
Baseband
Firmware
How can I flash all of these by ODIN?

Firmware is an total package that contains all elements.......including bootloader. ...
Flash it via pc Odin pc Odin. ......
Before flashing whole firmware it is recommended to flash stock recovery and kernel via mobile Odin. ....
I have provided baseband and recover separately. ....
Because some people may need only baseband and they don't want to flash everything. .....

So if I download the Firmware then I will get stock recovery and Kernel as well...Am I right?
Can you please tell me file names for those?
So after flashing Stock Recovery & Kernel...I have to flash the firmware which will again flash Stock Recovery & Kernel..
Edit: I have flashed stock firmware.
