Check Fus is a great way to quickly check, without even downloading, the latest official firmware for your region. This is very helpful for knowing what you got shipped, and what version you should download, and flash to get back to stock, in order to send it in for warranty.
This will only DOWNLOAD the ROM, and NOT flash it. To flash it, you will have to use ODIN, and the appropriate way of flashing it (for your phone).

Help
I used this check fus and flashed it to stock, it worked, after that i couldn´t update firmware using kies, so i tried to flashed it to stock with my older version of JVT and it faild
after that i tried to download diferent stock from sam mobile (JW5), that failed also
what to do to bring my phone back to life
can i somehow flash it to unofficial rom
You mean you want OFFICIAL rom on KIES?
Why would you want kies? and then flash…anyway beyond me.
Long story short: Check your CSC -> change it to your region = done.
yeah, already done that and kies recognize it but it said that it cant update it to the latest firmware, i wanted to do that so i could have the newest version (JW5) or if i cant do like that how can flash it to unofficial now when is dead
and do other things like such
Well what rom have you flashed on it?
As checfus will find you the LATEST OFFICIAL rom, thus kies will come up with -> no update.
checfus find the JV7 JV1 JVQ rom but the latest is JW5, right??
But kies didn`t find it now as it did find the JW4 a few months ago
i screwed up when tried to flash it on diferent rom (official JVT from your video, and JW5 from Sam mobile) neither worked and now the phone is useless
how can bring it back to life in any way
I don’t know what you’ve done…bricked it?
Flash a stock firmware that’s listed via check fus, and ignore kies, as if you flash via check fus, it updates you to the LATEST stock firmware
yes, i looked at your video again and saw that the mistake was in kies, i forgot to close it
also now when i flashed it i have unchecked the RE-PARTITION box in odin, what does that stands for exactly and do i need to flash it again with re-partition box checked this time
Re-partition, wipes your rom, and start fresh, usually without repartition, you won’t get a full wiped rom.
understand tnx
and sorry for being such pain in the ass
you’re not – just do reading and watching :D!
Hi, I’ve used this to download JW4 for the i9000, what I got in the download was just 1 tar file, do I just assign that to the PDA box in Odin and flash? I also have a file from a previous flash called ‘s1_odin_20100512.pit’ should I use that as my PIT?
Thanks
Indeed – all correct!
Put that 512.pit file in PIT, make sure repartition is ticked.
Then in PDA, put that JW4.tar file – put the phone in download mode, connect it up – hit start – and hey presto! 🙂
Thanks, did that and now it’s stuck in a boot loop, by the way I’m coming from a fresh JVT (from your other video). After the flash it showed some scrolling text on my screen and there was some red error messages about being unable to copy media files…Any suggestions? Thanks
Reflash it again – should work.
Couldn’t get it to work through Odin but just updated through Kies, thanks for your videos and guides, really appreciate it
Odd that it gave you errors!
Regardless, as long as its working now -> happy days! 🙂
My pleasure.
Please help

Hi there, i have two questions. first is that, i have just downloaded “Filename: GT-I9000_I9000JPJPF_I9000OJPJPF_I9000JXJPD_I9000JPJPF_JP_PAK.zip.enc2″ from Check Fus Downloader 2.1. It shows ” enc2″ extension in the file name at last. How could i convert it into zip. Second When i was making donation at http://fus.nanzen.se/#top…. My country name (Pakistan) was not listed. Then How I can make donation please advice. Waiting for Your kind reply.
Hey there,
First of all, i don’t know why you want to zip it. The files are made to be unzipped and put in odin.
As for the donation, try sending them a email (can be found via Google)
Hi just tried to use this program to get the firmware for the GT-P5110 – P5110TSABTU/P5110XXBLH3 (BTU). sorry to say this doesn’t work at all even when I choose a different type of phone or tablet. I assume this is no good for Samsung then.
It has always worked for me, sorry to hear it doesn’t work for you.
Thank you very much for this, you saved me from having from what i thought was a bricked phone that i only bought yesterday, i have the s2 i9100P and this helped me a lot, i was trawling the net for hours looking for someway to fix my phone, i landed here and i really thank you from the bottom of my heart……….. THANK YOU VERY MUCH 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
It makes me happy when I read posts like this – no problem – glad I could help 🙂
I have a S1+ and when i open checkfus downloader,I put there the informations about the phone and when I hit “Check Update ” it says:No firmware info retrieved for given data. What should I do?
Look on sammobile – could be Checkfus having problems.
