Get your ROM here
T959VKD1 fully flashable through CWM
For those of you who are not sure if they have CWM of if you have Gingerbread Boot loaders installed follow this guide
GB Ext4 Starter Pack
Or use ODIN and install the ROM
T959VKD1 DeOdexed
If you have any boot loop or boot up problems just go through these steps again and try the ODIN again afterwards.
GB Ext4 Starter Pack
*** Read each step carefully! Do not skip anything (unless your going to use Kies to update to a stock official Rom)!! ***
*** If your going to use kies to go to a stock update then you might want to change step 10) to this
Step 10) Go into the voodoo menu > Disable lagfix and /system lagfix off
You should be able to update using Kies after this. You will lose root capabilities but if you’re looking to go back to stock then that's a given.
Dmx is partially correct. If you want pure, you'll have to odin Kc1 stock rom, which has froyo bootloaders. I think some searching on this forum will grant you a link. I know I've seen it somewhere.

You can't update to KD1 using Kies, it only updates you to KJ6. If you plug your phone onto Kies with KC1, it says phone can't be updated FYI. The closest to KD1 would be deodexed KD1, I can't remember where I found the original odex KD1 but I have the file.

So, apparently I can get the KD1 to flash properly but when I try to update via Samsung Kies Mini it won't recognize my device. Also, when I flash the KC1 I get a boot loop and nowhere do I see anything about removing bootloop in the GB Ext4 link. Also, how do I get rid of the Root when I flash KD1?

What message/error are you getting from Kies? Mine was telling me my device was not registered. I had to flash back to KD1 & register the device @ Samsung. After that I was able to flash to KJ6 with Kies.
Ah, so I need to register my device on the samsung website? My Kies mini was saying my phone isn't recognized so I don't know what else is going on.
Edit: I just NOW realized where the IMEI number was! lol, forgot it was under about phone. Gosh, so silly.

What kernal and CWM version are you running? Maybe you should just Odin the KD1 instead.

ODIN back to KD1 and make sure you have settings, applications, development, USB debugging turned on. Then try Kies again. Don't worry about root just update with kies. It will all go back to stock.
Samsung galaxy s 4g... Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hello dmx, i have tried to download this file of urs, but the link is dead.... Pls help me, i'm have the same issue with my galaxy s 4g since i ve upgraded it to gingerbread... It kicked me back in every window, text, calls, freezen, reboot.... God bless
If you're wanting to get back to KD1, go grab FBis251's KD1 one-click. You'll probably have to flash it twice & the 2nd time make sure you have "Flash bootloaders" checked. It'll probably boot into recovery & when it does, do a factory reset, wipe the cache, and select reinstall packages. After that you'll be on stock KD1. Make sure you back up your contacts and any other files/apps you want to keep.
Dear Stephen, Thanks for your info. However, I would not wanna flash twice... I will just wait for DMX to reply me if he can get the link working again..... I really wanna do it thru Kies because am sending it back for warranty

DMX is probably not going to get back to you. The file Stephen linked you to is a repackaged version of the file DMX posted a while back. It is completely stock.
It won't matter that you're not flashing it through Kies, since your phone will wind up with the same stock KD1 files anyway. They won't be able to tell the difference if you're sending it back for warranty.
Stephen is the one you want to listen to. He recommended flashing it twice in case you are on Gingerbread and need Froyo bootloaders.
You do not need to be on KD1 to send phone back. KJ6 is an official release and you an send it in using KJ6.
EDIT: What FB said We must have been writing our posts at the same time.
Soft bricked(total noob) just got the JIG, got into download menu.
Can someone give me instructions on how to get back to stock, gain root, and install custom ROMS/ MIUI
It be very appreciated, i'm doing this for a buddy and i don't want to give him a brick lol.
1. for restoring stock : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
2. use superoneclick to root
3. Install clockwork recovery and rom manager
4. Install custom roms.
Wait before you flash that, what firmware version did it come with???
It could mess your phone up if it isn't right.

Pretty sure it came with 2.2 but not sure.
Then I wouldn't do that 2.1 Odin one click.... Look for a stock 2.2 Odin or Heimdall, make sure to read thoroughly too.

Note: as b-eock pointed out, make sure what was your stock version before restoring it!
I've always just flashed newer than my stock to avoid that problem and it always works well for me, after bricking or when i want to flash a new rom i flash to cappy gingerbread and flash boog kernal to get CWM(clockworkmod). CWM is essential is you plan on flashing to other roms. If you plan on flashing to another rom anyways it doesn't matter which version of stock you load as long as it work so I'd just flash 2.2 or newer.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300843
- this has all the odin 1-click flashable packages for captivate
To do everything you want to do...
flash back to stock, use 2.2 or one of the 2.3 versions. If you plan on flashing to a gingerbread rom (2.3) you'll most likely need the gingerbread bootloaders, if you don't originally flash a odin package with the gingerbread bootloaders you might be asked to install them later depending on what rom you use
incase you don't know odin is the computer program used to flash one click packages, you can find it by searching XDA, one click packages won't require it.
odin has to be open before you plug the usb into the phone putting it into download mode.
to flash to other roms you need CWM (ClockWorkMod-a customized recovery mode for the phone) the thread in this post has links to odin flashable kernals with CWM for each software build. To get CWM flash the respective kernal for the version you use. You'll need odin to flash the new kernal, its essentially stock apart from CWM. In odin select PDA and browse to the kernal zip to flash it.
you can search around XDA for oneclickroots, they will typically be odin or CWM flashable it's quite straight forward. New roms will typically already be rooted so you shouldn't have to root again.
good luck!
Does anyone know which exact ODIN i need to flash to get back to 2.2 from download mode.
You can use adamoutler's uckb2 heimdall one click. That's stock 2.2.
But whitch ODIN do i use.
Gez, HTC is so much easier then this samsung!

Unfortunately, there is currently no Odin one-click of stock Froyo (at least that I'm aware of). If you want stock Froyo, you'll need to either piece it together with full Odin, or use the Heimdall One-Click.

Take a look in this post. That should get you the right 3E recovery.
Once you have that, you can either use ROM Manager to install CWM recovery, or see if you can find a kernel with it already baked in and use ODIN to flash the kernel (look for the speedmod kernel).
Or you could flash stock GB, but that updates bootloaders and is a whole different can of worms.

Normally, the answer would be yes. However, as part of the Froyo update, AT&T managed to mess up the recovery menu, meaning that it won't flash unsigned packages. This makes getting CWM basically impossible without doing the steps in that post or flashing a different kernel.
You can root if you want to, but doing the steps in that post first will save you some headache.

I already rooted =/ , should i still try this?
If you have full ODIN, go here, and download the kernel labeled "speedmod-kernel-i897-k13c-500hz.tar" at the end of the first post. Open Odin, and in the "PDA" slot, navigate to the .tar file and flash it. That will get you the speedmod kernel, which has CWM, which you need to be able to flash.
Once it's flashed, just hold V+/V-/Power until it reboots, and then you'll be in CWM and can flash MIUI.
I'm assuming you've backed up all your apps with Titanium Backup, right? If you haven't, do that before you do anything else so you don't lose them.

Im not sure if i have "FULL" ODIN. I have the ODIN i just used to install 2.2. Then i rooted it using SUPER1CLICK.
Where do i get the full odin
So because I'm on a mac, i've gotta work 3 times as hard to get anything done..
but now with paralells running, things might get easier.
i tried to get my phone (froyo) onto gingerbread.. and it was working but glitchy.. then it stopped altogether.. i figured out the only way to get it unbricked was to go back to what it was originally via odin.
I'd like to get back to gb and check out all the roms, but dont want to waste more time..
so what i want to know is:
1. Custom roms are to be installed either (as in only) Odin or CWM?
2. If the Rom is GB, can it be installed on a phone thats running on Froyo (and vice versa)?
3. If #2 is true, I have to install GB before I do anything...?
4. Can I install GB it via Odin?
so before anyone jumps down my throat, A THOUSAND APOLOGIES for THIS NOOBISH BEHAVIOUR!!!
ok..
thanks!

Yes, it can. The catch is that the ROM you install must have the proper GB boot loaders, else you'll end up with the "rainbow" screen or boot looping. Ditto for downgrading from GB to Froyo; you want to make sure the ROM has the right boot loaders.

Not necessarily, but possibly. If your custom ROM has the right boot loaders (only important when going from Froyo to GB and the other way around - going from one GB ROM to another doesn't matter) then you don't need to flash a stock GB ROM first. I'm a fan of flashing stock, wiping all of the caches (cache partition and Davlik cache), then flashing a custom ROM. That might be extraneous but I feel it gives me a cleaner slate from which to start.

Quite welcome. Like one of the other posters said, the one-click methods are great for flashing. They utilize Heimdall, which is an open-source alternative to ODIN. They also only require you have Java installed to use them as they come packaged with Heimdall. Heimdall is cross-platform and is available for Windows, MAC, and Linux.
Best of luck.
well let me just say this before someone decides to flame you. I haven't seen any "CUSTOM" rom for our device that requires heimdall to flash. all are flashed via CwM.
to the op, I highly suggest using the search feature before posting. read the bible thread and also the starter for flashing from froyo to gingerbread or the one click method for kj6.
and trust me when I say this, once you go to gingerbread, you most likely won't wanna go back to froyo. since this device received the OTA for gingerbread, most of the issues we had with the leaks are gone. just my 2 cents worth though.

Depends on your definition of custom, I guess. Custom to me is non-stock, not necessarily tweaked for performance or anything. Bryan's one-clicks are custom ROMs, as they have modded kernels, cwm, root, etc.
I'm a Mac. I have OS X Lion. I do everything from that.

firstly, you guys f-ing rock..
ok. so the problems i had yesterday were due to Heimdall. The GUI is def easier and better looking but for some reason could not load the PIT file. If you were to flash without bootloaders, it would be ok (though only after a while), and even then only for the first flash..
And it did work the first time because I trashed the .kext in the system>ext folder.
Outside of being able to go into download mode, my phone was completely bricked.. nada. just the 4 lights (for the icons) would light.
So after HOURS of trying to google what the hell is a PIT file and how can i get Heimdall to install, I got ODIN to work on Parallels.
THIS unbricked my phone and i am now back to where I started.
I am PETRIFIED of this happening again but still want to go custom ROM...
So, in my limited experience with all things Android, I've found:
I can only flash with Heimdall if bootloaders box is unchecked
This is what "About Phone" says:
firmware: 2.2.1
Kernel: 2.6.32.9
Build: FROYO.VUVKD1
1. Can I install GB with ODIN?
2. Whats the difference btw using ODIN and Heimdall?
3. Are odin, heimdall and clockwork mod the same thing (ie they are all used to flash roms)?
4. Just to be on the safe side, i should install GB first before flashing any ROMS otherwise i go into "Rainbow Brite" mode?
5. Once i goto GB and once the phone is rooted, I'm pretty much good to go as far as flashing different ROMs?
6. Is the difference btw FROYO and GB the same as Windows XP and 2000 (OS 10.3 vs. 10.6 for my Mac ppl)?
btw, I'm asking these question bc i got HAMMERED (not in the alcoholic sense but like i've been beaten up by 4 large men) last night and was up till 6 trying to unbrick my ish... And YES I googled the HELL out of this site and the internet at large for these answers.. keep in mind there are like 144 pages per thread topic and maybe 3 posts are MAC related.

The best advice I can give you is to use the GB Ext4 Starter Pack I mentioned in a earlier post. It will provide you everything you need to upgrade to Gingerbread. If you follow the directions in that thread you can't go wrong. Also as I said in my earlier post, if you want a Rom that is bug free and that everything works fine try Valhalla Final. Ive tried most of the GB Roms but I always wind up going back to it. No offence to the other Devs.

1. Yes. although personally I would still use heimdall even if you have to run a parallel
2. Personal preference. I find heimdall easier. I give my other opinions on the subject in my guide. reference post 2.
3. in the sense you are asking yes.
4. You should ensure froyo boot loaders for froyo ROMs and GB boot loaders for GB ROMs. We have both.
5. you can flash a ROM via heimdall or Odin no matter the state of your device as long as you can bout to download mode. To flash with cwm you must have cwm recovery installed. In the case of this device it it's included in custom kernels.
6. Although this is not entirely true, for most that is a good comparison yes.

ok. so i'm downloading heimdall suite 1.3.1 for WINDOWS (dear god...) and will follow its rather extremely long and convoluted directions...
but hold on.. I was reading the directions for Valhalla Final and it says you must have pre installed kernel with clockwork recovery.. does Heimdall have/do this?
If so, I guess (according to the instructions) I can just reboot back into clockwork recovery...
Please correct if i'm wrong:
To flash via Heimdall or ODIN you have to use a Mac/PC. To flash via CWM, you just have to restart via recovery mode and CWM does the rest?
Heimdall 1.3.1 (the file you download from http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/) is an application that installs the DRIVERS into your phone so that you can flash custom ROMS?
Does Heimdall install GB or FROYO bootloaders? - How can you tell?
Is bootloaders the same as drivers?
The terminology is confusing, and (i think) i'm starting to understand:
In the Heindall instructions, it says "If the ROM is not a Heimdall Firmware Package it may instead be provided as multiple archives"
So "Heimdall Firmware Packages" is the same thing as a Custom ROM?
Once again thanks!!!

The one click setup is pre programmed to flash as the packager intended. Heimdall front end can be difficult to learn. Use the kj6 beta 2d file as I recommended before (cwm included). It looks like you understand the rest. Sad to see this be so difficult for Mac users

ok. so I will use the kj6 beta 2d file (that i download thru Heimdall) but the WINDOWS version.
I will then download a custom ROM (onto the parallels window)
and then flash it thru Heimdall
then it will work.
right?
omg.. wait a second..
so do i have to flash the kj6 beta 2d file via heimdall 1.3.1??
Is kj6 beta 2d file a ROM?
Because I've been trying to open this and use THIS as the app to flash a ROM that I found looks cool..
If so, why do I need to flash with kj6 beta 2d file first?
wow.. ok
so whenever I try to load a ROM via Heimdall frontend, I get "Tar header contained an invalid file size"...

You're trying to load a .jar file into heimdall. The .jar files are "executables" that open with java. If you read the op for the one-click file you're most likely trying to use you'll get instructions as to how to make it work.
Basically you need to install java. Google "download java" and install it onto windows then you can run the one click file on windows.

no, same thing. I loaded heimdall frontend, clicked on "heimdall firmware package" selected, first: "SMS-KJ6-beta2d_Stock-Rom_with_Bootloaders-One-Click" got the same Tar error message, then selected "sgs4g-OfficalGB2.3.6-NOCIQ-Octane v3.0" (another ROM i downloaded) - same Tar error message.
Googled and found JAVA, installed it, cant verify that I have it because I have to configure the net to with my version of windows (thru parallels), but when i tried installing it again, it said it was already installed so i'm guessing its working.
Rebooted, tried the whole process again, same damn thing,
Tried ODIN (I'm using ODIN3 1.85), and clicked on PDA, selected a ROM, some activity, but then nothing happens... Theres nothing in the ID:COM column, auto reboot and f. reset time is CHECKED
If it makes any difference i'm on Windows XP Pro SP3

Dude it's the same as the first time you flashed it. Exit heimdall front end! run the file (beta 2d) you downloaded. flash, leave the one click open, reboot to download mode flash again with boot loaders box check. Enjoy ginger bread stock with root and cwm recovery.
Be respectful
Always click thanks

Don't know the mac side of this... but after reading the thread I haven't seen anybody clearly say...
Flash the custom rom with CWM after you do what james just said.
You need to get gb with CWM through Heimdall first and only (SMS-KJ6-beta2d_Stock-Rom_with_Bootloaders-One-Click).
After you successfully do that forget Heimdall, have whatever custom rom you want on root of your sd card, reboot into cwm recovery and install custom rom along with whatever other instructions the op of the custom rom states (i.e. clear cache, mounts, etc).
Add: And no beta kj6 beta 2d isn't a rom. It is a kernal. The kj6 beta 2d is the custom kernal that gives you CWM to flash the custom roms. "SMS-KJ6-beta2d_Stock-Rom_with_Bootloaders-One-Click" is a rom with the kj6 beta 2d kernal.

Your Help
Heimdall or ODIN are programs used to flash Samsung made roms that have 6 basic files. Kernel(zImage), /System(Factoryfs.rfs), /data(data.rfs), Modem(Modem.bin), Primary Bootloader(boot.bin), and Secondary Bootloader(sbl.bin).
Custom roms are made by us. We take their files, hack and mod them to our liking, add root(the ability to change the system while using the phone), and flash them.
In order to flash the custom roms, we either repack the modded files into the factoryfs.rfs to flash via ODIN or Heimdall, or we do the easy one we flash via CWM which doesn't need a computer.
CWM is a type of android recovery. Recovery is used for stock android (AOSP) phones to be given updates. Samsung doesn't do so, they make us use Kies. The reason samsung still has recovery is because android requires it for booting, also if you need to wipe data or etc. Recovery is the only way to do so.
The purpose of CWM is tor replace the stock recovery with one that can flash custom made zip files that aren't signed by Samsung, as well as do additional features.
The android recovery on this device is embedded into the kernel. That is why CWM requires us to flash a different kernel.
I hope you learn from this.
This happened before but I can't remember how I fixed it.
1. Flashed TWRP (over codename if that helps)
2. it bootlooped back to recovery instead of starting the system
3. tried flashing another rom/ didn't work
4. finished season 2 of the walking dead
5. reflashed TWRP didn't help (TWRP flashing failed even tho it was the same file I used to get TWRP in the first place)
6. Took the battery out but that didn't help either
I really don't want to odin or use one click any ideas??

Meh, lets start with the first two...
To stop the reboot to recovery, you must flash eollie's oneclick with bootloaders (so flash it twice, second time flash bootloaders) and go back to mtd.

TWRP Major Boot Loop
hey guys, im new here and i desperately need help with my phone!
the other day i was flashing a rom on my samsung galaxy s 4g. Things were turning out fine, until i had some complications on my phone.. so, i removed the rom. when i rebooted my phone, it went directly into the team win recovery project boot loop and every time i try to reboot my phone, it goes into the twrp. I also can't wipe anything and i can't delete anything! Does anybody know how I can solve this or is my phone basically bricked
more details would be helpful..
As in what rom, or what kernel.... etc... and make sure you have the corret phone.
Same problem with t959p
Looks like I'm not alone.......here's my story
the other day I wanted to switch from a stock rom to a custom, so I flashed redux 1.3 which was actually a froyo rom, and it started draining my batt like crazy so I flashed another rom on top of the froyo rom not realizing what I was doing and somehow messed it up cuz now it will only boot into recovery.
Now just to be clear I know this was my fault, I know I should have odin'd back to stock first, but I wasn't thinking at the time.....Ohh and just so you know I've flashed this sucker hundreds of times and was always able to get out of any mess I got in.
So here is the situation as it stands now, 3 button combo to enter download does not work. I can only get it into download with the jig I made. the problem is even in download mode none of my pc's will detect the device as a Samsung composite device, so odin will not see it. I've installed every possible 32 n 64 bit driver I could find including reinstalling kies. Kies wont even see it. I've tried flashing a few roms that I know worked and still it just boots into recovery. Now one thing I'll tell you is that depending on which rom I flash I can get recovery to switch from cwm to twrp. right now I left it with cwm 6.x.
what I need is a cwm flashable stock telus t959p rom complete with bootloaders or at the very least a cwm flashable zip file containing the bootloaders to see if I can recover the phone.
ohh and if your thinking about telling me to google search for the answer then don't bother.......I've spent the last 4 days reading posts and going to different websites and repositories trying to find something that would help me and so far nothing has.
the only thing that might work as a last resort is pushing the bootloaders as per one of raver's or whitehawks posts but it's a little more complicated for me as I would have to set up a laptop with Linux as I don't think i'll be able to pull it off with any of my windows pc's, win7 and win 8 only.
so if anyone has the files I need or can make them please let me know....or if you think you have another solution I could try i'm all ears err eyes.
thanks

Have you tried heimdall one-clicks? Maybe it's showing up as gadget or something like that. I've had luck using zadig and heimdall to bring it back from the brink of death.

Would like to revive a slightly dead thread.
I upgraded to a Galaxy S3 and no longer use my SGS4G for daily use. I had AOKP and disliked it, FC's and didn't like the feel. I have been trying to install a new rom ( old rom, VH Black Ed. ). Every time It loads into TWRP I have the ability to select the zip, install, it says complete, but reboots right back to TWRP menu. I've tried flashing CWM and it will install, flash the rom, reboot, and right back to this TWRP B.S... what am I doing wrong? I want to continue to use this SGS4g for music and internet duties.
How can I install CWM and have it stay even after a reboot? This TWRP is starting to me off

Don't think you can flash those files, but you should be able to go back to stock.

just to get things straight so i don't mess up again, i have to flash froyo with ics (is there a specific ics version i should get? on a how to guide on flashing jb i found this info: Entropy512's CM9 Kernel / Blue CWM Recovery 2012.05.02-ODIN-Entropy-CM9-zImage.rar) can i use this one, i prefer odin b/c i've never used heimdall. then after i flash ics then i can flash to jb.... but reading some threads i saw that....
"Currently on stock Froyo:
1) Use Heimdall or Odin to flash stock UCLB3 (GB)

2) Flash Entropy's DD kernel to obtain root and red CWM recovery.

do i have to do this step or can i go forward with the current Stock_Root-Mod3e-UCKD5_Odin that i now have installed....?
secondly, after i install ics, right before i flash jb it states i have to do an aroma prep....then flash jb.....
all flashes are done with clockworkmod and i wipe only cache and dalvik? or is there anything else i have to wipe?
sorry for all the questions, i have read and researched many threads but they are all pretty overwhelmingly full of lots of info.....just wanna get it in order....

from froyo to ics i use odin, from odin to jb i use cwm, correct?

Follow all steps, don't skip a thing. As for wiping, wipe Cache, Data, Dalvik, and format /System when going from GB to ICS and ICS to JB. That UCLB3 file is Gingerbread stock and you have to go to gingerbread before you go to ICS.
Also, if you are confident that your phone won't get disconnected from Odin while flashing the UCLB3 file, flash the GB bootloaders while you're at it. If the flash fails while flashing bootloaders then your device is bricked so be sure about Odin before you flash them.

Since you have already used Odin, I would use option "C". The best thing you can do is read everything two or three times. There are also many vids on YouTube that are helpful.
Once you are on GB.....just pick out any ICS ROM an flash it. Once it installs, I wouldn't even bother sitting it up and then you can go to JB.
Th3Bill uses an Aroma installer in his ROMs and the first time you use it, you will have to flash his aroma-prep first.
Hang in there....go slowly...and read. This gets easier and easier the more you do it. I always just d/l the zips to my phone and never even have to mess with the PC.

btw, am i supposed to flash ics twice?? that's what the [GUIDE] How To Flash JB says,
"9. Flash ICS Rom, then ICS Gapps"
but when i tried to flash ics a second time i couldn't (because of rainbow screen, and because it didn't show up in my directory....and where does ICS Gapps show up?
thanks again
If you downloaded the bootloaders linked in the guide, then yes, they go on the pda slot. You only have to flash once.
Heimdall-one click is the one you must flash once before it allows you to flash the bootloaders too.
Edit: to fully install ics you must flash twice, because I believe that what it does when coming from GB is that it just flashes the ics kernel on the first flash, requiring you to run it a second time after rebooting for it to install the complete rom.
Ics gapps are often linked in the rom OPs, although you don't need to flash them if you are headed to JB.

That's odd, I flashed GB bootloaders in Odin from a rooted stock GB. But andros is right about going in the PDA slot. Maybe its just me that didn't have to flash with heimdall first.

Shawn what I meant is that heimdall one-click wont allow you to flash bootloaders the 1st time, so you must run it once and then a 2nd time but with "flash bootloaders" ticked on.
There's no need to use heimdall before flashing them with Odin.

Also, when installing jb in the initial setup it asked which would be the defualt location to save I think I chose the sdcard instead of the emmc directory. ..can I change that setting?
I'm pretty sure you can change the setting, but not sure how. Also, your APNs might be messed up. There's a thread with working APNs. One sec and I'll link it.
