Remics JB AIO 4.2.2 Android Firmware for Galaxy S I9000 is finally out and can be applied. So, for all those who are waiting for the most stable and best Android custom ROM firmware, the wait is finally over. So, before we move on to the detailed instructions which will help you update, you will need to follow the list of pre requisites which are summed up below. Unfortunately, Samsung won’t be coming up with any official firmware update for I9000 as its already an End Of Life as per Samsung.

Call Log - Call Log and Restore
Images, Songs, Videos, Files – Copy to internal / External SD Card,
APN and MMS Settings – Note down from the path “Applications > Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names”
Enable the USB Debugging Mode in your computer from the path “Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging”. Also, the minimum battery life should be a minimum of 40% or else there is a risk of device getting turned Off in the middle of firmware update.
