[Q] help required:S8500XXJL2 to S8500DDJI2 - Bada Software and Hacking General

Hi ,
I am in india and my wave s8500 is from UK, i done a full download of S8500XXJL2 from Vodafone firmware. Everything working except the GPS. I tried all the posibilities which are out in many bada forums.
And finally planned to flash indian firmware and have below questions.
1/ Is it ok to move from S8500XXJL2 to DDJI2 since my phone is from UK.
2/ since full DDJI2 is not available, should i flash as follows?
DDJE7(FULL)-->--->DDJI2(PARTIAL).
If so, is it ok to move from S8500XXJL2 to DDJE7..?
Any additional inputs are welcome. Thanks in advance to everyone out here.

n00b questions

Hi all,
I'm new to the Android world.
This morning I received my i9000 device and already in love with it!
I'm on firmware: I9000XXJF3
On the Samsung Firmwares site I saw a lot of different firmwares.
What firmware would be best for my i9000 (8gb EU model on T-Mobile Netherlands)?
If there is a better firmware, why should I upgrade? Or is better to wait for Froyo?
To change firmware do I need to root the device?
I also read stuff about recovery kernel, do I need to do that first?
Also do I need Odin or do I need another app for firmware upgrading?
What lag fix app do I need?
A lot of n00b question... But I hope someone can help me out.
Tnx!
Hey,
JF3 is the latest official Firmware for your device.
All other firmwares which you saw on the website are leaked firmwares, means they are not officialy released by samsung.
There are already leaked froyo firmwares, but jit is broken and they are more or less in alpha stage, so i wouldn't update to froyo atm. If you want froyo, you should wait for the official release in september.
I recommand JM2, its the most responsive and smooth firmware, in my opinion. JM5 is also very good. but keep in mind, they're both leaked.
To flash a new firmware you need odin, there is a tutorial, just check the stickies in this section.
You dont have to root your device to flash, but if you still want to, there is also a tutorial.

no its not, JF stands for 2010 June
M is not a official code for a month.
JF = Year (J) / Month (F) , Release-Date of Firmware
Year of Release:
A = 2001
B = 2002
C = 2003
D = 2004
E = 2005
F = 2006
G = 2007
H = 2008
I = 2009
J = 2010
Month of Release:
A = January
B = February
C = March
D = April
E = May
F = June
G = July
H = August
I = September
J = October
K = November
L = December
So if you have M-Z as month code, its not a official release ^^
Hopefully i am right, if not correct me plz xD

The best firmware right now (but this is subjective) is JM5 if you ask me. It is not official.
You can wait for froyo but JM5 is a massive improvement to JF3 already.
You don't need to root to install firmware.
You don't need custom recovery kernel either .
Firmware upgrading is done in odin.
With JM2 or JM5 you don't really need a lagfix because the phone will be fast enough without. Otherwise both RyanZA and Chainfire's fixes are simple and effective.

Thanks guys for all the answers!
It's a lot more clear to me now!!
Really appreciated. Going to flash JM2 or JM5 this weekend.
Btw does JM2 or JM5 contain the Dutch language? Also Swype in Dutch?
Cheers
before you flash anything make sure your 3 button combo is working properly

Thanks!
Just tried the 3 buttons and I got in recovery mode (when pressing volume up) and got in download mode (when pressing volume down).
I can see 4 options: reboot, apply sdcard:update.zip, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition
Also I see the Android with a yellow triangle.
What does the wipe cache partition do? Of course it wipes cache. ;-)
But what is the use of it?
Do I need to flash all 3 TAR files? (CODE, CSC, MODEM)
Code is probably the OS itself, Modem is radio rom but what is CSC?
Anyone?
Lezen?
wiping the cache partition can fix problems with some programs...

Question about firmware update ...

I'm new to Bada OS, and I want to update my Phone and in the same time to unbrand it ....
I have an Samsung S8500 and it is braded Vodafone and it is Bada 1.0 ...
I want to upgrede it to 1.2 and in same time to unbrand it ....
I've found the tutorial and the firmwares here http://badawaveapps.blogspot.com/2010/12/flashing-samsung-wave.html but i Don't know what version to flash ... I live in Romania (Europe) so S8500XEKC2 is good ?
Also, the spoof method from here http://badawaveapps.blogspot.com/2011/02/now-spoof-apps-in-official-bada-12-or.html will still work ?
you should flash your phone with xxjk1 ,it is the latest europian firmware which allows you to sp**f apps from menu and it is also bada 1,2 so you get swype too. .
Thank you. This is what I wanted to know.

FW Update treu Kies

First of al sorry for my bad english, i'm from the netherlands and have some problems with Kies and my Wave (s8500)
I have done some FW from samfirmware.com and that was working perfect. i install bada 2.0 beta from that website and was perfect, only battery leak bud oké.
but because bada 2.0 will come out OFW soon i had my wave back to bada 1.2 (s8500XXJID) but know when i open KIES there is a sign there is no fw update.. but there really is i know that for sure.
please help me.
You need to install CSC from your region but i dont know which is,look at the samfirmware

Click to collapse
and where to look. the only download's i can find are full fw pack
Ask someone from your country which FW he has and look for that FW on samfirmware or here mysamsungwave.com/index.php?topic=10277.0
you remember u r old fw 1.2 version?
if u are then download it from samfirmware and just change csc to u r region..
and u can ask other guys who hav same wave and not flashed or he updated with kies latest fw..
[sorry for my bad english]
For Netherlands, download any firmware with the XEN csc.
After flashing, make sure you install the correct csc in pre-Configuration setting.
Then connect to kies to upgrade to the latest version.
Best of luck.
NB: If you cannot find the latest firmware with XEN,
download this S8500XXJF4_Full_PRO with XEN csc (original from Samsung) and flash with it.
Then use kies to upgrade to latest version.
THANK YOU
i think i should thank you very much for you can waste lot of time to write this post .....thank you again for your sharing..

Unable to update software (either through Kies & OTA)

Hi, I have a Note2 (n7100) for almost a month now and I cannot update its software to the latest which is 4.1.2.
My phone keeps saying that I already have the latest one but I still have the 4.1.1... I also installed Kies on my PC also shows that I have the latest firmware.
My phone is not rooted. Could please help me? Do I need to change some settings on it.
Not only you but many others also having this, likely this is from samsung server issue not on your device. Or may be your country have not received update yet.
Simply download latest ROM and flash using it Odin, really odin is much safer and stable then Kies.
you can get more info from my signature, read N7100 All in One.

Thanks for the reply. I would like to know where can I download the official firmware that fit to my phone? Can I use firmware based in Regions Supported: Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom. OR I need to download a different one.
below is the information of my phone
Baseband version: N7100XXALJ2
Kernel version: 3.0.31-310959 [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMT
Build number : JRO03C.N7100XXALJ3
Hope to hear from you soon.
*** Using ODIN means just only update the firmware not rooting it? Because I do not want to root my phone. Just update it to the latest one.
Can you input here what you are getting by dialing *#1234#

Search 'samsung update' using Google, download any note 2 firmware you desire... (Don't worry I flashed France firmware although my phone is from Korea, it works perfectly)
Flash the firmware using ODIN...
1. DOWNLOAD Note 2 firmware (any)
2. Extract the zip file (Firmware that you downloaded)
3. Open ODIN, browse the md5 file in PDA...
4. Flash it
Done, easy... This WILL NOT ROOT your device... DON'T WORRY!
GOOD LUCK

Samsung Note2 unable to update
I have e same problem as minitokyo. I bought my note2 when 1st launched (1st batch), and software version is now 4.1.1. My phone is registered in Singapore with service provider Starhub. My phone runs on the generic platform instead of the service provider Starhub's platform . When i tried to update to 4.1.2 a few weeks ago, it says that i have "have the latest software installed". I just cant get it updated via phone (ota) or via computer (kies). I called Samsung , they cant explain too, other than offering to reset my phone to factory settings , which will erase all my data, so i do not want that. Until today, .i also cannot update. Where is the problem ?

how to Update using ODIN

Hello
i don't know if this question was asked before i tried to search but nothing
i came from xperia xz and flashing was just as easy as downloading the FTF and flashing in flash mod
i bought my S9 that was stuck at 1 Dec 2018 software and no new updates are available (even with smart switch) to download so my best solution is to update it manually using ODIN
i used to have a galaxy gear watch and s5 and flashing was also simple but i came across a thread that said something about CSC Version and i am sacred that i may brick the phone while trying to update it
can someone point me in the right directions ?
my CSC : G960FOXM2CRLI
Service provider SW ver.
SAOMC_SM-G960F_OXM_KSA_PP_0002
KSA/EGY, EGY/XSG
baseband version
G960FXXU2CRLI
build number
PPR1.180610.011.G960FXXU2CRLI
and i live in egypt but the phone was sold is KSA if that's matters
any help please ?
thanks in advance

If there are no updated KSA firmwares for your S9, flash any CSC for the G960F, Germany (DBT ) has the latest June update
If you have KSA sim card need to flash KSA firmware with only Home CSC also and if you have EGY sim card and will come OTA downloads
KSA/KSA,KSA/XSG

Well yes you need CSCs to match for OTA, but it is not necessary for normal usage, once my region releases the latest update I will flash back for OTA
so it's normal to flaash any firmware even if the CSC doesn't match? only the phone model number right? flashing on ODIN like thr normal way kust like the s5? nothing else need to be done ? like enabling/disabling stuff on developper options ? OEM unlock? sorry for my noobies questions

Normal if your own region CSC has not updated their firmware yes, but you will not receive OTA updates until the CSCs match and will have to flash manually each update
There is a big thread about it so I'm not going to go into it in detail here, quick search should find what you need
Nothing else needed, boot to download mode and flash with Odin 3.13.1
