Bell Canada users and Brazilian Users - Galaxy 7500L (notice the L)

[andremuller]

Does the phone.tar may causing the lock problem?
Cause it's the only tar I've never flashed. I don't think so but...
The problem in flashing it is that my Galaxy is an I7500L (another baseband).

It looks more related to the PDA part of the firmware right?
Or it's about the CSC?

 

[andremuller]

Does anyone have a tar file with the I7500L baseband version?

 

[Rastaman-FB]

Does anyone have a tar file with the I7500L baseband version?

no, if we did we would be able to fix the ones that are bricked by flashing the amss file

hey guys im just a bit confused i recieved a Samsung galaxy from bell. .I wish to root and reflash it. People are stating that the bell Galaxy is i7500L i used the Android system info app and it doesn't say anywhere that it is i7500L. it says i have a Samsung GT i7500 board. My device is a GT-i7500. CUPCAKE.BMIK6.

Double check. See the box, the user guide, the warranty. Check everywhere.

Update:
An if it's IK6, why would you reflash it? The latest firmware on this side of Atlantic ocean is IK5 )

I guess Drakaz's recovery would work just fine for the rooting purposes though.

 

[Pona64]

i did see i7500L written on the manual but i thought it would be shown somewhere in the phone system. i wanted to reflash with the mustymod rom. the current firmware is ok but dont like the battery life and the battery life reading is completely off almost all the time.

 

[informale]

Come to think of it, I am now even more convinced that you have the L version, because as I said

the latest firmware on this side of Atlantic ocean is IK5 )

If I were you, I wouldn't flash anything at the moment.

UPDATE:
Look at the post above by gilbilly

We need samsung to release a new firmware through NPS. None of us can get the file magically for you

you cannot extract the baseband/amss file
you will need to wait till samsung release an update that includes this file then flash with odin

Guys,
I'm kind of "out of time" to come here and explain how the brazilians are doing to flash their phones!
We created a group (unfortunately in Portuguese-BR) where some guys flashed the PDA firmware and a crazy guy flashed the whole phone (PDA, Phone and CSC)!!

The group is here:
Galaxy Android Brasil | Google Groups

What can I say for now:
1- Using the Android system information app (found in market) everybody stated our Brazilians phones are GT-i7500! None of them have a "L" in the system informations!
2- Using this information, a guy (Feij

 

[informale]

Fernando, that's great news!

The guide you linked to does not seem different from what we have here though.

 

[kam187]

Wierd, unless they used a different string in FUS they'll just get galaxy firmware

 

[Rastaman-FB]

Wierd, unless they used a different string in FUS they'll just get galaxy firmware

looking at the link they are flashing the full via firmware aswell.
seems some people are not using the 7500L
be very carefull

 

[informale]

I though so too, but how did they get it there? eBay purchase from another country?

Fernando,

could you please double check if you can find any mention of your phone being i7500L. Check the box, the manual, the warranty leaflet, check the sticker under the battery.

Ask that guy, Feij

Fernando, you can read how to update without the phone part in this topic.

Is it possible to use windows vista or shoud I use XP to make this update?

I ask you this, cause I had a lot of issues with the Ipod update using Vista! Thank God I have a very old computer with XP installed.

What OS do you use?

 

[informale]

I use Win 7. I believe you can use any Windows as long as you have drivers correctly installed and Odin sees your phone.

Just remove the phone part as described above and then follow the guide on flashing, the Odin part of it.

Informale,
Do you have a link to download the latest firmware? Ik5?
I've tried two differents links, but none of them seems to work!
RapidShare: 1-CLICK Web hosting - Easy Filehosting
http://dl1.gettyfile.com:8080/46/455700/I7500XXIK5-PDA-CL99814-REV5_ITV_.tar

Do you have the file or any other link?

 

[informale]

Rapidshare link works.

The easiest way is to download with Samsung FUS Dowloader directly from Samsung:
http://androidforums.com/samsung-i7500/13856-samsung-fus-downloader.html

In FUS change csc version to I7500ITVIG6, pda and phone to I7500XXIG8.

Thanks, brother!
I just downloaded the I7500XXIK5-PDA-CL99814-REV5_ITV_.tar to my computer!
I'm using Linux, so it's easy to see what is inside.
There are 5 archives in there:
amss
chache.img
kernel
recovery
system

I just removed the amss from the .tar file and moving to winows to start the update. Is it ok, so far?

I tried to find in the forum something about nandroid to backup the my phone just in case of fail!
Is it safe? Should I do a backup first or this is useless in case of fail?

I know I can find all the answers in the forum, but I want to double check, cause this phone was very expensive!
