Problem with return

---

I'm having to return my Galaxy S for a replacement, however before i realised there was a hardware issue, i flashed it.

Since i'm in Australia, on Optus, there isn't a leaked DTJF3 image. So i can't just flash back to the original.

Is there a way using busybox, or an update.zip (I create and sign update.zips, Have done a little) to update the model numbers to at least look like i haven't been messing with it. Best to be safe rather than have them not honor the warranty because of a flashed update.

I ask in here as this is where the people with an intimate knowledge of the underlying code hang out.

Regards,
aRTie

Australian Stock Rom (Dump) : ............

PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU ARE NOT A DEVELOPER, PLEASE DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS FILE.

not my work but taken from this forum, so mayb try a search before posting

So I guess the first silly question would be.....

how to separate out the CSC, Phone & PDA tar files from the Dump?

Or is there a way to use Odin to flash the dump.tar?

(just thought I'd ask the question before the OP does )

Ok, so i was just looking at Odin, and there is a place where you can upload the dump.tar file. Is it really that simple - select the dump.tar downloaded from this thread, keep all other PDA/CSC/Modem spots empty, maybe select re-partition then flash??

Hey mate, caught in a similar situation here. The dump is not available now, do you mind uploading to another location? I know many other users waiting for this as well.
All the best with your flashing.

In the end until there is a leaked copy of the rom,we won't be able to flash it.we can customize with update.zip however we can't turn the dump into a rom.

The dump will contain the optus parts of the rom.but not the rom itself. I just figured someone may be able to help me fool the about screen into showing the wrong rom version.

At some point nandroid might get running, then we can do some interesting stuff until then, we just wait.

That's how I understand it

During inspection of your handset, the firmware check is done by the supplied tools to Optus, this will have no effect even if you change the About section on the Android OS, voiding your warranty further. I would rather advise you to wait for a month or so until 2.2 update comes up on Optus, then you can update the firmware via recovery.

the dump has a different format, it doesnt have a radio and csc file ( though you dont need it ) but you still need samsung.pit file i.e the bootloader file .. but be careful while doing that.
