Hi Guys
Quick noob question
When you flash a single file using odin (for example the official XWKE7 in the rom flash guide), and you put this file in the PDA section, does this update the MODEM and CSC as well on the phone?
why there is one ROM file not 3 files to be put in the PDA, MODEM, and CSC sections of Odin
Thanks

There are some ROMs (like those stock ones) that have everything contained within the one file.

what about re-partition and pit file, i have read in the guide that they should not be used
why is that ? what is the function of the pit file and when should we choose to re-partition?
Follow instructions for each individual firmware.

Eh, it's not supposed to be extracted, buddy.
It's a one-package file for ODIN. So just use a random OPS file (from a Galaxy Ace ROM), select the one-package option (top left corner, I think), then load the zip in the One Package file chooser (bottom right, under BOOT, PHONE, PDA, CSC, etc.)

Which Rom Useable?
Hi guys,
I have a question and i can´t find the answer anywhere...
I'm with Glsmt 2.1 (2.3.3) and i wanna flash a 2.3.4 or 2.3.5 ROM.
Do i have to flash a diferent modem before i flash the new ROM?
Can i do it via clockworkmod? Or just via ODIN?
Where can i find the most recent modems? i have registerd in samfirmware but i can't find the files i need... :S
Someone can help me?
Thanks!
U can keep the current modem, the newest modem for Europe is S5830XWKPA its in S5830XWKPY_S5830XWKPA_S5830XEUKP1 firmware
And how can i flash that firmware considering that i have a custom ROM at the moment?
Thanks!
Firmware or MODEM??
MODEM ... assuming that i only need the newest modem to flash a 2.3.4 ROM... Do i need to have the newest firmware before i flash a 2.3.4 ROM? Sorry man, i'm confused
If you want to flash CM7,
1. download the zip from Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development section either Cyano Ace or the KANG build (if using KANG build don't forget to download
Fixes: cm-7.1.0-RC1-AllFixes-Grif_07.zip and install the same way)
2.put the archive in your SD card, boot to CM recovery select install from zip and select the zip from the list
To flash 2.3.4 rom download S5830XXKPH Firmware from Samfirmware and flash via ODIN
HOW TO FLASH IN ODIN???? USE THE SEARCH BUTTON

No (Flashing firmware replaces the whole phone memory content - EVERYTHING)and to flash firmware all you need is USB cable, ODIN, and knowin how to boot to download mode
U can flash the S5830XWKPA modem after flashin 2.3.4 (KPH firmware)
I can´t find the WKPA in samfirmware.com ... just the WKPH. But ok.
And i know how to flash in ODIN
Resuming:
1 - Use ODIN to flash a 2.3.4 firmware (S5830XXKPH)
2 - Flash a custom ROM 2.3.4 via CWM
Right?
Cheers Mate!
I get this message from my Kies "Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies".
Current Firmware version : I9100ZSKI3/I9100ZSKI3/I9100XXI3/I9100ZSKI3
What should I do to get this SGS2 working with Kies auto upgrade firmware ?
My SGS2 product code : GT-I9100LKAKOR
thanks
Did you flash a modem from another firmware, is your rom an offical one?
You have two option download firmware from link in forum and flash using odin.
Flash correct modem for current firmware and try updating via kies..

This firmware is package of PDA, modem, csc in 3 files.
Honestly you can forget upgrading through kies and use Odin or mobile Odin.
There is an app called checkfus which will tell you if there is an upgrade for your carrier in your region.
Then from intratechs thread you can download whatever official firmware you want and flash using Odin or even better mobile Odin which will root the firmware at the same time as you flash it.
I know I haven't answered your question but Odin/mobile Odin in my opinion are better options.

As ace of Clubs said you can wait for Kies to upgrade whenever and its not a guarantee that you get updates even on original firmware and once you mess with firmware its pot luck as to Kies updating .

Welcome . New thread with tutorial how to come back from JB to GB .
First you need Odin to flash your phone . If you're here you propably have got one . I recomend 3.04 or higher or 1.86 version .
1.Connect your phone to PC with Odin Flash Mode (home+ volume down + power during start )
2.In the Odin select PIT , CSC , PDA Files from pack :
http://disk.yandex.com/public/?hash=CXISs198rZIJtpzWXood+waVEXcxGbW4T1iWMkicox0=
http://d-h.st/AZN
It's only one rom with all working files i found in the internet .
It's Rom for Russia (SEB) and will change your region code .
3. Flash
4.Welcome on GB again . For sure to the time of full release of JB .
PIT File only :
https://www.box.com/s/1e4su0r4h3n0xl5ae8r7
(You can try to flash one file rom . It's can work . Maybe . But more safe metod is using full SEB Rom )
FIRST YOU NEED TO FLASH USING SEB ROM IN POST , THEN ANY GB YOU WANT !
Q and A
1.Did I can flash any GB ROM using one file rom and the added PIT File ?
A:No , you can't . First you need reflash your phone using russian 3 file rom , after this you can do everything you want .
2. It's working ?
If you know what is Odin , how to flash and doing everything like in this how to , for sure this is working .
It contains CSPA, EFS, UMS.
What for ?
Is full GB firmware applicable?

It's for sure working . Because this rescue , me after JB flash . If you will install first this Russia ROM then you can flash Rom for your localization without problems
Using the above linked PIT together with a firmware for Europe (so starting with XX...; exactly the XXLL2) didn't bring me back to GB. Flashing worked fine, but afterwards the device had a bootloop (stopped at Samsung's logo) and booting into <3e> (Samsung's recovery OS) wasn't possible.
So I'll try with the "russian" firmware now.
how is this different form previous stock versions?
Hi friends,
Is there something you changed in the PIT files for this?
What will happen if I have JB and I take a stock UK LL2 f/w from samfirmware and flash it?
thanks in advance...

thanks....also I've just downloaded PIT creator from

Do you think it will help?
How do i create a UK ROM PIT for myself and avoid "falling into it" ?

@jeev_one
If I'm not mistaken,the pit file is the same for the entire Europe.
The problem is UK rom which does not contains all files needed.
Only Russia ROM contains all files needed to downgrade to GB.

The Problem isn't PIT File . It's universial for GB Roms . Problem is that you need to use 2 file ROM . Only one I found in the internet is this from Russia . Faster way is to install SEK Rom from first post . Then Reflash UK Rom and change Regional Code using *#272*IMEI# .

Thank you for this, will try as soon as download completes, JB is awesome but still unstable.
Edit: worked great, flashed Russian ROM first, then Polish LL8.
Notes:
- for other noobs like me, the CODE goes to PDA in ODIN
- as mentioned above, after you flash the second ROM, set the regional code by using *#272*IMEI# (generic EU is XEO I believe, it's what I had before I went to JB).
