ok, phone rooted with one click root now trying to flash cwm with CF Root universal via ODIN. Flased with the provided bagaria-09 GTi9003 tar file. flash was successful but stuck in bootloop. i searched for the entire forum believe me but to no avail. all DXKB2 links are dead. help needed.
why are you going back to DXKB2?
if you really plan on going back to froyo
download links are in sammobile.com but you have to register there first to be able to download
Code:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9003&r=2#regiona
but as a TIP
before going back to DXKB2 download DXKF1 first
flash DXKF1 then DXKB2
***regarding your problem
what was your firmware when you rooted it and applied universal CF by amit?

thanks for the reply man. dont plan to go back to DXKB2 trying to upgrade. should i just flash other tar files instead? where can i go from DXKB2? FYI the phone is DXKB2 Froyo.
ahhh
you should not flash amit universal CF root with DXKB2
DXKB2 = froyo
universal CFroot is for gingerbread versions
you should use firmware DXKP9 for your region if you like
or you could also use XXKPQ or XXKPU firmwares
those are gingerbread versions where you can use universal CFroot
if you want to use DXKP9
flash DXKF1 first then afterwards flash DXKP9
but if you want XXKPQ or XXKPU
flash DXKPE first then any of the 2 you like
for firmware flashing you should read and follow guide carefully

wow.. thanks alot man. somebody need to post this one up.
my phone info
Code:
about phone
Model : gt-i9003
firmware version: 2.3.6
baseband version: i9003jxkp3
kernel version : 2.6.35.7-cl982987 [email protected] #1
build number : gingerbread.jpkph
*#1234#
PDA : i9003jpkph
phone: i9003jxkp3
scs : i9003ojpkpc
I downloaded I9003JPKPH_I9003OJPKPC_EGY.zip from sammobile.com
how to flash it?.... all the guides talk about 4 files, for example:
CODE_I9003XXKPE_CL409735_REV08_user_low_ship.tar
MODEM_I9003XXKPE_REV_00_CL1041909.tar
APBOOT_I9003XXKPE_CL409735_REV08_user_low_ship.tar
GT-I9003-CSC-MULTI-OXAKPE.tar
the zip I downloaded contains only 2 files
1. I9003JPKPH_I9003OJPKPC_I9003JXKP3_HOME.tar
2. SS_DL.dll
so should i flash with odin it as pda with repartition, auto reboot and f.reset time checked or should i flash it with CWM after i wipe
or that would brick my phone?
Open odin>put single file (not the .dll one) in PDA and press start. Although i suggest you flash XXKPE first. There is a high chance it will have a bootloop if you didn't flash XXKPE first.

Hello dear, I have T959W was hanging on Sam Logo (no recovery just download mode). I flashed it by flash file which it mentioned here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1956025 [ROM][HEIMDALL] Package For T959W Wind/Mobilicity Canadian Users . phone opened normal but there was no Base band and imie null.
Please if any one have the original flash gimme a link.
Thanks in advance
There is no odin pack for the "W" model, nor do you want to try to flash a "V" model odin pack.
I state clearly in my instructions several times that you need to flash a modem to get your baseband back. After the 1 click package flash, you still need to boot to CWM and flash a modem.
I have seen threads being spammed with people not being able to upgrade to 4.4.2 and asking for help so i thought it would be better to make a thread for that purpose.
There is no need to root the polish stock rom if you want to move on to a custom rom after you have updated the new 4.4.2 bootloader!
You Know the deal if anything goes wrong then the blame is on you not me...
In this guide the links are for the older 4.4.2 stock polish rom "N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5".
For the newest stock rom N9005XXUENB3 and newer when available click here and put N9005 in the search box and download what ever country closest to yours that is available.
ODIN 307
Download Polish stock 4.4.2 rom "Mega mirror" and flash via Odin 307 in PDA tab and remember to tick Phone Bootloader Update.
Download TWRP for 4.4.2 and flash via Odin 307 in PDA tab. I didnt like the other recovery so i use TWRP and it's much better in my opinion.
Now you should see if the phone boots up the 4.4.2 polish stock. If it does then go to step 4. If it doesnt then move to Odin 309.
Now flash you chosen custom rom via recovery. Enjoy :victory:
ODIN 309
Download Polish stock 4.4.2 rom "Mega mirror" and flash via Odin 309 in AP tab and remember to tick Phone Bootloader Update.
Download TWRP for 4.4.2 and flash via Odin 309 in AP tab.
Now you should see if the phone boots up the 4.4.2 polish stock. If it does then move to step 4. IF it doesn't then move to step 5.
Now flash you chosen custom rom via recovery. Enjoy :victory:
Download 4.4.2 bootloader and flash with Odin 309 in BL tab. This is only done if the stock 4.4.2 rom dosn't upgrade the bootloader. Let it boot so you can check if it worked. If it did boot into 4.4.2 stock then go back to step 4. Last resort if the above didnt work is to try the SamMobile way below.

Does it have to be Polish ? Can we use other ones ?
Also, do we have to tick Phone Bootloader Update ?
I didn't tick this earlier, so it kinda screwed the phone. Softbricked it and then "kinda" fixed it.
And BTW, Phone Bootloader Update in 307 is disabled, greyed out.
But I'm running into some problems. Now I need to re-flash it.

If you follow the guide it will work and if 307 didnt work for you then 309 will.
Yes just go with the polish version to be on the safe side. I have only tried the polish version so i cannot speak for the other versions. If the 309 dont work eather then download the separete bootloader i have provided and flsh it with 309 and tick the Phone Bootloader Update.
Well, this one requires to update the modem. Not really sure I want to do that.
But, should I update Bootloader via Odin ?

Yes bootloader needs to be flashed via odin.
md5 hash please
Hi
Can you please post the md5 hash of the file N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5_XEO.zip
MEGA does not provide hashes. The file is long and, I think it is worthwhile to check it before flashing it.
Thanks for your excellent guide.
i dont have a md5 but i checked with md5 checker and the file i have on my harddisk has - 7730BABC7713DFBE5934278FD653B3F7
Hope you can use that.
MD5 correct. Thanks.

Thanks a lot.
I confirm that my N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5_XEO.zip file downloaded from MEGA had an identical md5.
Thank you. But its a pre-release version, no?
Is it not better to install one of the final 4.4.2 by now ? any recommendation of those ?

Doesn't matter if you are gonna flash a custom rom after you get the new bootloader on the phone.
So it all depends what you wanna archive.
