Then you are out of luck. Most of the files were hosted on megaupload affiliate's and when it went down so did the files.
Make sure your contacts are backed-up on your sdcard/google and upgrade to gingerbread you will be happier.

Why are you keeping yourself stuck on Froyo? You prefer being 3 years behind?
Use the link provided by eollie, its the best out their.
My advice, go to gingerbread as it has better drivers, kernel, signal, and a much bigger application /market support. use the link provided above, Don't forget to Thank eollie

[Q] Odin Bootloader Anyone???

I have been looking everywhere for a bootloader to flash to my SGS 4g via Odin, can anyone help me?
P.S. would a SGS Vibrant bootloader work on it because I have found one of those?
Thank you for your time,
Chad
i don't know much about bootloaders but WHATEVER YOU DO DO NOT FLASH THAT VIBRANT BOOTLOADER, IT WILL BRICK!

Don't think that Superoneclick will root gingerbread. Dr honks modified gb kernels will auto root and give you cwm.

Nowadays I tend to only check here twice a day. Busy busy days now. =/.
But Chad, to answer your question, if you're gonna root, you might as well try out some of the custom gingerbread roms we have on this forum. There are Audiophile, valhalla and ICBINB. There are differences to all of them so make sure you read up on which you might wanna flash.
Superoneclick can't root our phones on Gingerbread, so you'll need to flash a custom GB kernel as Exodian recommended.
If you want you can follow my GB starter pack guide from step 7 on so you can prepare your phone for having ext4 and a gingerbread rom of your choice without issues.

Phone Reboots during any Calls [Tried SD Card Method]

Hey Guys, I have the Samsung Galaxy S 4G updated to 2.3.3. My phone will randomly during each and every call I have reboot. This is annoying as hell. I've Searched around the Forums and noticed that people have said to remove your SD Card for 24 Hours. I've done this yet the problem still is here.
Will upgrading my Modem/Baseband to something like KI3 fix my problem? Thanks.
the 2.3.3 leaks are crap. Go 2.3.5.

Yeah but all I've seen is all these Custom Rooted Roms and such. I'm stupid with those CWM and Rooting and such like that. I just want the 2.3.5 Stock. I don't want help with trying to get those Custom ROM's even though I do want them.
There is no stock official release if that is what you mean but you can Odin a leaked rom. Their stock.

Downloading it right now. Where do I put what? Thank you
Edit: I see a DLL and a MD5. All I have to do is just Put them in the Correct Area and Flash? None of that Rooting or VooDoo CWM Junk and such? Just Odin and Use? Right?
Edit2: I'm looking and it seems like a ****load of people are having WiFi Problems? I don't want those...
All gingerbread leaks have had bad wifi so far.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Easiest way would be to download a ROM that has the modem you want... Unzip the ROM into a folder and open it up.. There is a folder in there called "updates". Double click that folder and there are 2 files you need... redbend_ua and modem.bin. Now you need to create a folder doesnt matter what you name it.. within that folder create 2 new folders.. META-INF and updates. The modem and redbend_ua files go into the updates folder. The META-INF is going to be the folder that contains signature and updater script and update binary.. which in short is what tells cwm what to install and where to install it .... This is something that id highly recommend researching before you try it..
Just to emphasize... if you dont know what your doing you may be finding out what heimdell one click and odin are about..
Why are you yelling?
Try: Infuse Modems
I'm planning my escape from the digital world!
Sorry all..didnt mean to use all caps.
I do have a few roms and modems and i use odin alot..i will try the method you described..just cant find UCKD5 anywhere.
Thanks for the help.

Alot of people, including myself will disagree with you saying that UCLB3 is better... There are others that are more stable and have better battery life... for example uckl2... It all comes down to personal preference and what works for you.
Battery life's been bad all the time so I don't even consider that anymore. I'm coming from an iphone that would last a helluva lot longer Lol.

No you don't have to root if you want stock gingerbread. Use Kies mini. We don't have ICS yet. To flash Valhalla you will need to root and a custom kernel. Look at the guide in the first link of my signature.

So, flashing to gingerbread is less risky than rooting and flashing to Valhalla... Can you give me the link for the guide to upgrade to gb?

Flashing to Stock OS and recovery.

Hi all,
I'm really sorry to start a thread for this but I couldn't find it anywhere else. I've been having a lot of problems with my Skyrocket and am considering sending it in for warranty repairs if a flash to stock doesn't work. So I have the right OS from sammobile and I found the appropriate recovery tool on here. Here's the catch, neither CWM nor the stock tool will flash to the stock OS. It'll revert back to CNM 10 AND Liquid'd 4.1.2 without an issue, but I can not get the stock ROM running. Please help, I'd be so ridiculously grateful.
Check out the developer stickies by Vincom works wonders and when I FlAsH to stick I use Odin and use stock 35th with all the stuff or I use ics leaked to start off from
