hey guys i'm desperately looking for a full dump file for the samsung galaxy s i9000m from bell canada since i am in tanzania i was unable to locate it anywhere from the internet...your help will be mostly appreciated.
What do you mean by dump?
Are you looking for the 3 file ROM to flash?
hey, thanks 4 replying...
well a dump file is a file the system file for your phone to restore it to its stock,its different from a ROM, i need it to restore my i9000m to stock, its currently bricked and i can only find dump files for i9000 only...any ideas?
the dump file is like a backup copy of your ram, so once you perform a jtag it is required.
Well, you can find the stock firmware files for Odin here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881&page=1
UGKG3 is the only Bell Canada Gingerbread one available.
Not sure if any of the download links work anymore though, since a lot of the download sites are not working now.
thank you so much 4 the link, but its not the dumpfile i am looking for, these are stock roms.
well i am sort of a newbie with this stuff i'm actually helping out the person who will repair my phone look for the file, so what he recommends is i get someone from canada to get it since i am from Tanzania. And i was just wondering if i could get your assistance if you would please ask around the original samsung dealers for the dump file, i am sure they must have them since they use them to perform the jtags
by the way do u have any idea where i can get the 818 pit file for use with odin?

There is a repair centre in Montreal that does the jtags.
Local Bell stores don't do repairs, they ship them out.
Have you tried CheckFusDownloader at http://fus.nanzen.se/ ? It's very nice to retrieve Carrier specific ROM.

Erm Hope someone can Help.
I managed to Dump my Rom to my SD Card using a utility on this Forum.
I now have a lovely dump.bin file. Whhhooo hooo
Could someone kindly explain in terms that a complete idiot would understand, How do I get this Rom back onto a Device?
I imagine you would use the same program as is used to load new ROM's, I would be very carefull about doing this with your ROM dump though, if the file format is not the same it will either refuse to flash or worse still kill your Universal, If you download the ROM file for your universal from your provider just compare it with your dumped file, I would be very suprised if it was the same.
Also, forgive me asking this, but you dont think you HAVE to put it back because you dumped it do you? Nah, you already know that by dumping your ROM all you did was take a COPY of it, don't you?
After all, why would you want to flash the same ROM to your Universal as it already has, unless you want the dump to fall back to if another ROM you are about to try might fail?
Regards
Heheh Thanks for the info.
What I was trying to do was to pull the Rom off a Vodafone V1640 and slap it on a XDA Exec.
It would be handy if I could manage to do this as, I seem to have become the un official XDA support person for my company.
If its too tricky I will just try to get the V1640 Rom as an exe from somewhere. Its not currently on the Upload area.

How do you dump your rom
May I know how you dump your ROM? What software? Where to get it? Please? I have been searching but could not find it. Thanks.
Hi All,
After spending a large amount of time trying to find a solution for the SPL 1.24 to hack. Mainly the Telstra Australia WM6.5 Upgrade. Combining the many efforts of XDA Members I finally got a proper working hack going. I thought I'd post it straight away for the rest of the world to see.
First what you need to do is download the WM6.5 Upgrade from the HTC Website. When you open this you need to go to Start - Run - Type %TEMP% Find the location where the extractor has dumped the files and rename RUU_Signed.nbh to MAPLIMG.nbh. Copy this to the root of the SD Card. Reset your phone into Bootloader and let the flash start. It will fail at 10% than reset itself and install it properly.
From here you need to download a cab clearsecurity.cab which is suppose to be for the Samsung Blackjack 2 but it enables the HTC Snap to be hacked.
From there download the desired Custom Rom and run 1.19 auto.bat and watch the screen go black and the custom rom install.
Any Success???
Hi, can anyone let me know if they have had the same success???
Hi Roger,
Thanks for the post as it worked a treat for me, I was able to flash the HTC Snap after following the above steps. One thing I didn't do is backup the Telstra spl 1.24, Do you know where I can get a copy from?
Once again thanks for the post.
Mr.D
THis looks great. I'd love to try this now, but before I do, I'm hoping you might be able to answer a question of mine, to ease my mind:
If you need to reinstall the original Rom and SPL 1.24, is there any way the the Telecom company can see that the phone's firmware has been previously changed?
Thanks.
Flashing back to Telstra 6.5 Rom
Hey guys, I believe you can just download the latest 6.5 Telstra Rom for the snap from the HTC website. I havern't tried it since I have hacked the phone and the only reason why you would obviously do it is for warranty. Actually I also found out that you can get WM 6.1 rom but you need to contact HTC and you can upload it from there FTP. Sorry I can't provide any more assitance maybe when my phone breaks and I need to flash it back I will post up what I have done.
Hi Roger
Thanks for the reply. This is what's stopping me from trying to flash the ROM. Knowing whether I can restore it back to it's original condition without the telecom company knowing it's been flashed. The phone is only new and if it does develop a hardware problem and I had to send it back, I'm sure they won't fix it under the warranty if they can see that it's been flashed.
If as you suggest, it's just a matter of re-flashing it with the original rom, then that's fantastic. But, I'd really like some firm confirmation before going ahead.
The ROM developed by ookba looks AMAZING and I can't wait to try it.
Thanks.
Flashing Advice
Hi Badcam,
I have owned many HTC phones and I have to say the Snap is probably the most durable out of them all. I find with the Snap and the newer models of the HTC phones from australian carriers they really lock them down and you don't get the full functions as what you pay for. Worst of all they infest the phone with all these carrier features that are not needed.
It is really your choice flashing your phone. Every single phone I have had I have flashed and never had problems only when I drop them lol. For warranty purposes you can always flash back to orginal rom and just tell them thats how you got it. They really can't say much. But I did abit of reading and when you do upgrade the rom from HTC website it does install SPL 1.24 back meaning if you want to flash it back you need to go through the hack again.
Hope this has been helpful.
You said it Roger.
There's so much Telecom rubbish on this phone, it's not funny.
Well, I'll give it a go this weekend. If you're happy it's going to work, I am too. Thanks very much for your advice.
Hey do you guys know how much (in USD) a Telstra SNAP is out there if you buy it outright? Can can anyone ship me one to the States?
What about a TelecomNZ one?
http://store.telecom.co.nz/mobile/pay-monthly/htc-s523
NZ$499.00 is around US$361
http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert.cgi?Amount=499.00&From=NZD&To=USD&x=16&y=17
I'd be happy to sort something out for you. PM me if you'd like.

Thanks but that's kinda rough. I get the MAPL100 (Dash 3G) here for $100. Looking to get a SNAP S523 for around that, even used. Let me know if you run across one. Thanks!
It's atrocious. Believe it or not, that's a good price. It's just come down NZ$200. Of course, I had to buy my two days before the reduced it.
I'll keep an eye out.

Hi, can anyone tell me how to get the device into bootloader mode? i have followed the steps, but getting it into bootloader mode and then letting it hardspl from the sd is not happening :-( THANKS!!!
Can't find clearsecurity.cab. Can anyone tell me where to find it?
Attempt to answer questions lol
Benzin,
Type in google "clearsecurity.cab download" and find the mediafire link
If you have problems please let me know. Maybe XDA-Developers already have it posted.
wcampagne,
So you are getting into bootloader right, its just not picking up the MAPLIMG.nbh file. You have renamed RUU_Signed.nbh to MAPLIMG.nbh. Also a train of through if you have tried applying previous Roms before hand I suggest you go to %TEMP% file and remove anything that is there that has reference to RUU_Signed or the rom at all. You are probably uploading the wrong file as it might be cached. As I said its just a train of thought. If you have any more problems please feel free to post up and I will figure out a fix for you.
Ookba,
Ebay is your best bet. I got my handset for $150 AUD brand new on bid.
Works great for me and I thank you so much!
Was looking if someone had the O2 UK ADJF1 rom and could not find so i figured if someone could mention a simple method of extracting stock roms from our phones then we could put it up somewhere online and have a database of sorts containing all stock roms.This will greatly help in reflashing for warranty issues and having all roms available at one place. Sounds good?
i have a galaxy s which i flashed to remove t-moble branding, now not sure why but i can't get wifi working so want to go back to stock firmware. the problem is which is the correct version for me.
my phone is galaxy s gt-i9000 and was originally locked to to t-mobile UK. i'm looking on the stock firmware and odin guide but i haven't got a clue which one is suitable. i've also got a message in kies saying that 'your device does not support software upgrading via kies'.
please can someone advise me how to get the phone working correctly again? don't care if i have to go back to t-mobile branding as look as it works with wifi.
Hi Rincal...
first question.. did you have your galaxys unlocked to make it sim free by a shop or market seller.. if you havent.. this will cause problems, so make sure you get that done.. its about £15.
2nd) The latest stock firmware is 2.3.6.. the xda team have Eu stock ROM threads.. look in "development", but if you cant find it.. use this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1431596 - although i think there will be a newer version out now.. in the PIT folder, use PIT-512.
Here is a full abc flash guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139050
Follow it to the letter, this is how I learned.. even though Ive had no problems, you flash your sgs rom at your own risk.. make sure you read it through first before you flash anything and always backup your data 1st.
Please note: This is not my work.. please thank and respect the xda teams named in the threads.
If anyone reading this thread can give better guides or links, please point the way
Good luck

hi NightOrchid
i used a market app called galaxy s unlock to unlock it myself. it was working find after that, the problems started after rooting and flashing.
i'll try your suggestions and let you know the outcome. i've already tried flashing with a few firmwares but always have the wifi problems. should say that apart from wifi and kies the rest of the phone seems to work ok with other firmwares.
Hi guys,
Sorry to post this in general, but since I don't have 10 posts I'm unable to post my request in the [ROMS]Official i9100 carrier branded firmware download for Odin Flash - xda-developers thread.
Since Multiupload is down, is there anyone able to reupload the French SFR branded I9100BUKJ3 firmware? (PDA:BUKJ3| PHONE:BUKI1| CSC:SFRKI3)
I need the firmware urgently - I have a phone with corrupt /efs that I'm unable to recover (have tried the steps here: [GUIDE] Recover your IMEI in 9 steps. - xda-developers).
Apologies if I've missed a thread/post somewhere, I've searched the GSII forums and Google extensively with no luck.
AFAIK flashing another rom won't help a corrupt /EFS folder because CSC only holds carrier info (APN's and stuff) not IMEI info. But you can contact someone to restore it (search around it's in that topic you said you've checked).
I'm aware flashing another ROM won't save it, just trying to get it back to the stock shipped firmware to return it to the supplier and get it repaired/replaced as it's still under warranty.

No good. Can't get a product code from the phone, so I can't run the app.
EDIT: Found the firmware I was looking for. Can be downloaded from here: rapidlibrary.com /files /gt-i9100-sfr-1-20111024140811-zip_ulz9wt98qyi99on .html
