I see there is a lot of people who post in here who dont know how to Flash JVU before Custom Rom with ODIN
Either they get the Red wipe error in Recovery or just arent sure on how to use it, hope this helps you...
THE TOPICS HERE ARE GUIDES ON HOW TO FIX OR USE :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Red wipe error is because the problem is with the dbdata!
Install THIS FILE in the PDA section with ODIN and dont touch anything else!
DBDATA.RFS DOWNLOAD : If you need it
Open ODIN
Click the PDA button and choose the dbdata.rfs.tar file you downloaded
Make sure Re-Partition is unchecked
Boot your SGS into DOWNLOAD MODE
To do this : Hold down the Home, Volume Down and the Power button
Connect your device to your computer with the usb cable when in Download Mode
If your device is connected Odin will recognise it
Click Start in Odin and wait
When the process is completed your device will restart
No more dbdata errors!...

FLASHING JVU ROM WITH ODIN v1.85
Why ODIN v1.85? ... I have not had any issues with it, plain and simple!
Use ODIN with PIT File
PIT File Incase you need it : DOWNLOAD
*Using PIT File just Tick Re-Partition and put PIT File in PIT ..simple!
ODIN 1.85
ODIN FILES HERE
Turn off your phone and put it in download mode by holding VOL DOWN+MENU+POWER
Do you get the Yellow Triangle?..If so continue..if not do it again...
VIDEO LINK : HOW TO GET INTO RECOVERY / DOWNLOAD MODE
Open ODIN and select 512 .PIT, and put in your files for : CSC, PDA, MODEM
*PIT File isnt always needed to do this only if you get the 3 Red errors*
Plug in Phone with USB Cable To Computer
In ID:COM it should go yellow and you should see ADDED in the message box
Check Re-Partition option and then Cleck PIT button to select: s1_odin_20100xxx.pit file.
Click PDA button and select : CODE_I9000XXJVU_CL851880_REV03_user_low_ship.tar
Click PHONE button and select: MODEM_I9000XXJVU_REV_00_CL1092175.tar
Click CSC button and select: GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVU.tar
When you have all the files needed in ODIN, say JVU Rom as thats what we are using here
Click Start let it Run
Once complete you will see S logo on phone (computer will make a few noises like connect/disconnecting
Unplug the Cable to the Phone
Power Off Phone
Go into Download mode so that we can now root the Phone
Then plug in Phone
Click Reset on ODIN then in PDA put in CF-Root Kernel File for JVU to be Rooted
CF-Root is in ODIN FILES or DOWNLOAD HERE
Then Click START.. should take just a few seconds ....
Same again when you see S Logo on Phone unplug Cable
Close ODIN
Now, what I do now is go into :
Settings > SD Card and Storage > Unmount SD and Wipe that and then at the bottom Wipe Format USB Storage
Enable USB Debugging > Plug in Phone
Window should open up showing your phone Directory..
Copy over your ROM that you want
Shut Down Phone
Reboot into Recovery (Vol UP - Menu - Power)
Wipe the 4 things (probably know these... you should do)
Data / Factory Reset
Cache Partition
Go to Advanced > OK
Dalvik Cache
Battery Stats
Go Back > OK
To move Up or Down > Use the Left Side Volume Rocker Switches with Menu to OK Action
Install your Custom ROM from Zip Card that you want...
Reboot Phone when complete... DONE!
Please Check APN Settings.. for your area after you have done the following steps to give better signal
Sometimes Authentication Type is set to Default..try it at PAP and then Reboot Phone
As some ROMS APN settings are done manually for the user.. so be careful
Rom I am currently using : Blue SAUROM JWB
Hope this helps out a few people as there are quite a few posts opening up with the same problems or issues :good:
