Well you can find your phone model and version on the box of your purchase.
It should look like this : http://goo.gl/KjE33

And I already posted a link on how to flash using Odin above :D
 
TY alot :D:D
but, i already took my phone to repair.
I have to call to them and take my phone back :D:D . lol :D.
Theres two 2.3.4 choices in europe :
S5660XXKQ3 and S5660XXKQ6 .
Can i find this info too from my box ?
Thanks.
 
Yes I'm pretty sure you can find this info on the box. :D
Did your Mom get mad? LOL. It's OK I messed up my Gio also after like one week and I had to send it to repair! My parents were like WTF? LOL :D
 
I didnt find it on the box, but i think ill look inside there :D:D.
Not rly mad, my mom just said repair it somehow and then its ok :D:D.
Im having this phone since september and i rooted and stuff but now i thought that i should overclock the thing and then its better :D.
Maybe you can give your msn or something lets talk about the flashing closer, i rly dont want to go back to repair guy.
If my dad gets to repair before 18:00 then i start flashing it today.
I dont rly know what time is it in your country, tell me when we can speak in msn :D
 
Where are you from? Then i know what time is it in your country and when we can speak in msn . I added you to my msn , add me back.
I know now how to do flash , BUT my pc doesnt RECOGNIZE my gio anymore!
If you can tell me how to fix it, then i should get my gio OK.
 
I'm currently in Canada. I'm from Indonesia.
Oh, the old "Odin can't recognize my phone" situation.
I had the same problem! Here's how I fixed it:
-Download on your PC, Samsung Kies
-Once installed reboot PC
-On your PC, open Task Manager
-Click on the Processes tab
-Find all processes named "Samsung Kies" or "Kies" or anything that has the word "Kies".
-Right click and end process

1. Extract and Run Odin 4.42 Downloader for Samsung Galaxy Gio on your Desktop (Or anywhere else).
2. Open ODIN and Click OPS button and select and load: Gio_v1.0.ops

 If you want to flash single file(.tar) click on Single package and locate the single .tar file in single package option . skip to step 7

3. Click BOOT button and select and load: APBOOT_S5660xxxxx_CL940762_REV03_user_low_true.tar.md5
4. Click PDA button and select and load: CODE_S5660xxxxx_CL940762_REV03_user_low_true.tar.md5
5. Click PHONE button and select: MODEM_S5660xxxxx_CL928654_REV03.tar.md5
6. Click CSC button and select: GT-S5660-MULTI-CSC-Oxxxxx.tar.md5
7. Turn the Samsung Galaxy Gio into Download mode by pressing ( Volume Down + OK + Power ) together.
8. Connect Cable phone to pc Make sure that the program detect the phone.
9. Click Start button if all set and ready,and wait until the program will finished downloading files. A word PASS! will appear if the flashing successfully completes.
The phone will then reboot,you can check and confirm the newly downloaded firmware version by typing *#1234# and then do a full reset by typing this Code *2767*3855#

ok so i was using titanium backup to backup my apps but later changed my mind and closed my phone to stop the process. Now my phone wont turn on and gets stuck at the boot screen (android) and the restarts again. Sometimes it gets stuck at the boot screen then a page shows up for like 1 second and says
Blue Error handler 1.2

My phone is LG Optimus T. my parents will kill me. I have 1 week till spring break ends

I have tried everything, I have rebooted my phone using the Power and Home buttons, however now I am stuck on a Google location screen and still my screen is frozen. My phone is not new so probably time for un upgrade but its very inconvenient to deal with it at this point. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do. I have read through all of the replies offered however non of them seem to be addressing my issue, Which is my screen is frozen and I am unable to reset settings or anything else..

thanks

So your kernel Zip is very corrupted, Please advice me that I am going in to your phone, You're rooted? Please download the kernel from XDA Developers Forums for those who have the Samsung Galaxy S5660, then reflash it.
