From my previous post, I shared about how to root Samsung Spica i5700 via kernel of LK2.02. Then, you guys are then able to extend your desire to install any well-known custom ROMs such as Samdroid, Cyanogen, etc. by applaying in the Recevery Mode. It is pretty easy for you guys to do, isn’ it? However, when you try to switch install back and forth with several custom ROMs with additional package, e.g. Intercept3D to draw the best quality of video displaying, you might find the problem that some component installed in one rom conflict to the other custom ROM to not get the best quality of your mobile phone. Then, it’s better to do clean install rather than apply the other custom ROMs to the existing custom ROM.This section will tell you about the procedure of doing clean installation as follows.
NOTE THAT: I will not be responsible for any damages happened to your phone during or after doing clean installation. Hence you must be sure that you really understand all procedure content to do clean installation. In addition, all procedure should be done on Windows XP.
Clean Installation Guide
- Flash back to original firmware
Prerequisite- Manufacturer firmware: This link is for I570EDXJC4

- Drivers for Samsung Spica i5700 must already be installed. Go to my previous post how to install
Step to do
- Close a mobile phone and go in Download Mode by pressing the Volume Down + Camera + Power Button. Importantly, don’t put USB cable connecting between your notebook or PC and the mobile phone. Otherwise, it will go in Download Mode
- Now, open Odin 4.03 and Press the Reser files button 1 time.
- Connect the mobile phone to your PC or notebook by using USB cable. Now, it’s the time to check whether your PC or notebook has yet been installed Samsung Spica i5700 or not. If yes, on the COM Port Mapping and Message boxes should be able to recognize your mobile phone. For instance,

on the COM Port Mapping with a colour highligthed backgound and

StartThread Detected : 0
StartThread Detected : 0

go to my previous post at the 6th step of Explanation of Root with Leshak kernel v.2.02 to solve a problem
- Until you’ve got the status on your odin as the picture below. Then you can disconnect the USB between the mobile phone and your PC or notebook.
- Finish at this section
- Install Kernel LK2.08
Prerequisite- LK2.08
- spica.ops : go to my previous post
Step to do
- It is the same as my previous at the section of Explanation of Root with Leshak kernel v.2.02 from 1st step til 7th step but the different is at the 5th step in which On PDA, you must select LK2.08 instead of LK2.02.
- Go in Recovery mode by pressing the Volumn Down + Call/Answer button + Power button and holding them for awhile during startup section.
- Choose to wipe data/cache.
- Then, apply your custom ROM in Recovery Mode such as Samdroid or Cyanogen as well.
Prerequisite- Custom ROM for Froyo 2.2: You can download it from http://www.samdroid.net at the development of Samsung Spica i5700 Section.
Step to do
- Note that, each cutom ROM has their own limitation to install. BETTER to clearly understand it.
- Most of cases are downloading your custom ROM and place it in the first place of your SD card as the figure below. This figure represent that in this case we use SAMDROIDMOD 2.2.2 a9 as custom ROM
- After that, shut your device down and go in Reovery Mode by pressing the Volumn Down + Call/Answer button + Power button.
- After that, go to apply zip from SD.
- Then choose your custom ROM.
