UPDATE 1: If you’re experiencing graphics related problem, then that’s probably because you’re upgrading from an Android 2.2 Froyo build. So to solve your graphical issues you’ll have to flash XXJVK with bootloaders, you can download it from here. Installation process is similar, just use the file with bootloaders.

UPDATE 2: For everyone who is having graphical issues, download & flash the ROM with bootloaders from here — named “GT_I9000_XXJVK_XXJVK_OXAJVK_Sbl.exe”, Size: 146.72 MB. Installation process is similar.

UPDATE 3: The post has been edited to replace the JVK Download links with the its with_bootloaders version. It’s been said that the with_bootloaders version is a bit risky, but if you want to install the custom ROMs and do other stuff, you’re gonna need it anyway. Also, users who tried the without_bootloaders version of XXJVK are facing lot of problems (like graphical issues as told in the comments below) and it’s said that the with_bootloaders version takes care of that too.

UPDATE 4: A new official ROM — XWJVB (final release for Europe) — is available too. We’ve already covered it. Here’s How to Install XWJVB and How to Root XWJVB and install CWM. Enjoy!

For more clarity of versions, here are the file names of two version with respective size:

  1. JVK_with_bootloaders —

    GT_I9000_XXJVK_XXJVK_OXAJVK_Sbl.exe (size 146.72 MB)

  2. JVK_without_bootloaders — GT_I9000_XXJVK_XXJVK_OXAJVK.exe (size 146 MB)

So, we would suggest you to download the with_bootloaders version — size: 146.72 MB — so that you don’t face graphical and other issues and also are able to apply custom ROMs made on JVK — we’ll covering these ROMs too, soon.

In case you want to download the without_bootloaders version of XXJVK, here’s the download link. Install Instructions same as for with_bootloaders version given below.

The instructions below (together with links have been updated, to install with_bootloaders version.

[info]This guide is applicable only for Samsung’s Galaxy S international version (i9000). If yours is Vibrant/Captivate/Fascinate/Epic 4G or any other Galaxy S variant, then this ROM — and Guide — is not for you, and that’s for definite.[/info]

  1. Download XXJVK with_bootloaders. File name — GT_I9000_XXJVK_XXJVK_OXAJVK_Sbl.exe. Download Link. [Whether you’re coming from Froyo or have already tried XXJV1 we would suggest with_bootloades version.]

    3. Switch Off your Galaxy S. Make sure it’s disconnected from PC and connect it only when told.
    4. Now, put it in Download Mode. For that, press and hold these keys together – Volume Down + Power Button + Home Button.
    5. Now, head over to Odin (from step 3.1, double-click to run the program on computer) and place the files as per the instructions given in steps 8, 9 and 10. Also, for reference, check the image at the top.
    6. Leave the PIT box empty.
    7. In the PDA box, select this file (from step 2.2) — PDA_XXJVK.tar.md5
    8. In the Phone box, select this file (from step 2.3) — PHONE_XXJVK.tar.md5

    [valid] Want to get root access on XXJVK?

    Well I’ve posted a rooting guide too, follow the link below:

    Root XXJVK – Android 2.3.3 ROM for Galaxy S i9000 [/valid]

    [info]If you experience a problem in getting the ROM flashed with the steps given above, try flashing the ROM again, but with 512 PIT file this time, and keep the ‘Re-Partition’ box checked. All other things same as in steps given above.[/info]

    To read the differences in “bootloader” version and  “without bootloader” version, go here. Or below is the quoted summary from the link:

    • XXJVK firmware with-out bootloaders + Froyo/Eclair bootloaders on device = Graphics/Screen corruption + Can’t enter Recovery Mode
    • XXJVK firmware with-out bootloaders + XWJV1(GB Beta) bootloaders on device = OK!
    • XWJV1(GB Beta) firmware with-out bootloaders + XXJVK bootloaders on device = OK!
    • Froyo firmware with-out bootloaders + XXJVK or XWJV1(GB Beta) bootloaders on device = OK!

    Let us know in comments below how XXJVK Android 2.3.3 ROM works on your Galaxy S (i9000).

        Well, I think you don’t have the proper drivers installed on your PC, so
        download and install for your Windows version from the links given below:

        32bit Samsung USB Drivers (No need for
        Kies)

        64bit Samsung USB Drivers (No need for
        Kies)

        Install the latest android 2.3.4 Firmware xxjvq but before that go to
        recovery right now and do a factory reset, then wipe dalvik cache. Then
        install the xxjvq. I hope that fixes everything.

        Your data and apps and their data will get deleted so better take backup
        using the titanium backup free android app.

        Where are you from, maybe file modem needs to be the one for your region.

        Hey, download the file from here –
        http://hotfile.com/dl/123974341/c47f92e/I9000BVJJW4_I9000BZTMJW2_I9000BVJJW2_I9000BVJJW4.rar.html

        password – samfirmware.com

        Installation procedure is similar to JVK you’ve installed using our guide.
        Don’t tick the re-partition box unless you’ve selected the .pit file too.
        Rest all is same.

        Good luck. since this firmware, BVJJW4 is for Australia, this should fix
        your problems. Back up your data before installing this since apps and data
        will be lost.

      I have successfully installed 2.3.3 on my SGS. It is XXJVK and is working perfect. Few issues which I am facing :

      1. The battery works fine, but on its own mood, it suddenly starts discharging all of a sudden. No new apps has been installed. When I see the log, I see “Android OS” and “Android System” to have used the max

      2. I used Appmoster to backup most of my apps. When i restore them from SD, it does not show as installed in the market

      Any idea why the two are happening? Do I need to upgrade this ROM or are there some patches available….

      Thanks in advance
