Thanks.

I am very new to SGS and might to perform my 1st root + update rom + flash.
read the 1st page but I guess the guide is out dated?
any complete guide on what you guys having on your SGS now?

I may need some quick understanding of this rom + firmware update thingy..
This is what I am understand from a quick reading :-

1st -I downloaded the "I9000XXJPU ##" file in here :
http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i9000.htm
This is Europe firmware right? I assume I can use them as many of you mention it here.

2 - I extract I9000XXJPU.rar, and found there are 5 files inside the extracted folder :-
i. Odin3v1.3
ii. GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJPU.tar
iii. I9000XXJPU-REV03-PDA-low-CL747761.tar
iv. MODEM_I9000XXJPU.tar
v. s1_odin_20100512

3. I remove the sim card from the phone, and go to "Download Mode" by holding/pressing Volume Down+Home Button + Power Button until the phone screen show "Downloading.. Do not turn off Target!!".

4. I run the Odin3v1.3 program,
and choose those 4 particular files.
i. s1_odin_20100512 for PIT
ii. I9000XXJPU-REV03-PDA-low-CL747761.tar to PDA
iii. MODEM_I9000XXJPU.tar to Phone
iv. GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJPU.tar to CSC
Then click Start to run the Flashing job.

That all right?
Those above task is to flash the stock XXJPU firmware? its consider as rooting?
what about Darky rom ect? any other guide?

I'm no expert at flashing but u may wanna take a look at this video for flashing darky's rom here
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIO4LUONhNE

I've watch the video but somehow it missed the step to copy the update.zip and darky's rom to sdcard. sdcard referring to internal 16gb memory right?
can I just put those files to any folder inside internal memory?

step 3, the checking download mode, is best if you do it as step 1, or you do it first before reading any flashing guide, if not kinda waste your time,

hey dude, i read your post few back you bought the phone at SACC MALL?
i live near there too, if you got problem could always tell me  thumbup.gif

I've done flashing the stock XXJPU firmware on my phone.
Now downloading Darky's 5.5.
going to root, Clockworkmod Recovery, then install the Darky's rom.

Yup, I got the 1st SGS bundle there smile.gif
My wife bought the DHD bundle few days earlier.
Where is your place?Alam Central?

you can just put it in the internal sd in mass storage?

how to do that?
seem like my pc also does not detect my phone after the flash.

anyway I just remember that my Nokia N85 got 8GB microSD, might want to use that to transfer those files from PC to my SGS.

well, i'm thinking that the update.zip file must be the CWM. i dont know about the problem why your pc cant detect, but what i know your update.zip must be in internal sd card.  if you still cant do it, perhaps the sifus will pop out some time now. smile.gif
my pc actually did detect the phone. Its Kies that unmanage to establish connection with it.

I manage to copy the Darky's 5.5 gingerbread and update.zip via external microSD to the phone.
And guess what....I finally manage to install Darky's into my Phone..yay! rclxm9.gif

My first everything to SGS..flash stock XXJPU > Rooted with Clockworkmod Recovery > and finally Darky's ROM smile.gif

For those who wud like to know how I customize, here how it works..

This is what I do before flashing ANY ROM. I strip any unwanted apps n put any KERNEL OR APPS before flash so everything can be done in 1 flash smile.gif

1) I download any latest ROM that I would like to test (eg : now im on Darky's v5.6)
2) Since I dont wanna use voodoo which already preinstalled in Barebone, I download speedmod ODIN version which contain .tar, extract it u'll get zImage in it.
3) Open Darky's v5.6 using 7zip, go to /updates. Here where kernel n modem are placed.
4) Just drag zImage which u extracted earlier from TAR file and put it in /updates. If u feel to customize ur modem (JPD for example), extract JPP_modem.zip (u'll get redbend_ua and modem.bin), drag n drop it in /updates.
5) if u feel to delete or add some .apk to be install during ROM flash, go to /system/app and add ur favourite .apk (eg : 8pen.apk) or delete any unwanted installer (eg : FMRadio.apk) .. BUT always refer to SGS Spreadsheet so u wont accidently delete any important .apks
6) Close 7zip, transfer to ur internal-SD n flash via CWM

By doing this u wont need to flash many times just to move from default kernel to another.. default modem to another or base-medium addon and medium-full addon... all these can be perform in 1 step

p/s : You might also install the theme as well using the same method. its located in /system/framework. same method in case u need to flash .apk via CWM, edit any addon zip file and drag in ur desire .apk and flash
*
thanks for the tips.

but I heard if we extract the original Darky's rar file we will loose the Signature..
correct me if I am wrong..
can we just uninstall the unwanted apps after the flashing?
