How to Upgrade Samsung Galaxy S i9000 Firmware Leaked ROM Odin Flash. Smartphone users are always curious about new firmware release for their device because it comes with various bug fixes and new features.
These are not always released simultaneously for all regions by the manufacturers so there are ways to accomplish it. We will see how to upgrade Samsung Galaxy S i9000 firmware using Odin Flash tool. Not just Custom ROMs but officially leaked builds can be used to upgrade Samsung Galaxy S Firmware. First method is using Samsung Kies which can be used only for officially released Firmwares. Here we will, learn to flash Samsung Galaxy S i9000 with either leaked, custom ROM or Official release. Requirements Unlocked Samsung Galaxy S i9000Latest Samsung Kies or Device drivers installed.ODIN 3 version 1.0 (flash program)Upgrade Firmware upgrade File (.tar) can be downloaded from Samsung-Firmware.PIT file (the boot file of the phone generally called 512.pit) which will be included in upgrade file.USB cable Procedure Disclaimer.

CF-Root takes the kernel from an original Samsung firmware, and just adds root, busybox, and (unprotected recovery and CWM compatibility) OR (CWM3) If you are looking for highly optimized kernels or kernels that perform specific functions, look elsewhere. All CF-Root's are based on original Samsung kernels, they are NOT recompiled, and thus ensure maximum compatibility. THIS IS NOT A ROM - it is only a kernel. MAKE SURE YOUR PHONE CAN ENTER DOWNLOAD MODE USING THE KEYCOMBINATION WHILE BOOTING BEFORE FLASHING CF-ROOT (or anything, really) Donate There have now been over 200.000 downloads of CF-Root for various devices, and many more if you include ROMs, kernels, etc that use it. CF-Root v4.3 (JVT and newer) --- Superuser updated to v3 --- Kernel is now in "insecure" mode (rooted ADB shell) How ?
Fun with resistors (home/car dock mode + more) Fun with resistors (home/car dock mode + more) We've already established that a resistor on the micro USB port can be used to force the Galaxy S into download mode, but the USB switching chip used on the phone has a lot of other capabilities that are triggered by different resistors between pin 4 and 5 of the plug.
Update 6 March 2011: Confirmed modes so far:Desk Dock: 365K (also works with 1K)Car Dock: 619K In these modes audio output can be switched to pins D- and D+ of the USB port (D- is left) but this is not done by default, see this thread. Serial port/UART: RID_FM_BOOT_OFF_UART (523K) Read the rest of this thread for more details on using this port.
Other resistor values that also enable the serial port: RID_AUD_DEV_TY_2 (80.07K): Doesn't switch the phone on, but produces bootlog output on the serial port when you switch it on manually. The bootlog output only starts partway through the second bootloader, rather than from the start of the primary bootloader. Code:
