While configuring 1x and EvDO on Verizon Samsung Stellar i200, it is observed that due to more security on this phone, the phone goes offline while selecting CDMA bands. If the phone does not restore to factory NAM, then a downgrade to stock ROM is essential. If the phone goes offline on 4.2.2 or 4.1.2 (VRBMA1) it should be downgraded to stock 4.0.4 (VRALG4) via ODIN. As soon as phone boots on 4.0.4 ROM, dial *#22745927 and press ##72786# to clear NAM settings. Phone will be on Reliance network once it boots. Below are the factory images in case anyone needs them.

Samsung Stellar ROM flashing process:- http://www.all-samsungphones.com/samsung-galaxy-stellar-i200-stock-rom-image-download-and-install.html/

This means this phone can only be used in ICS and can't be upgraded to jellybean.

So, there is also 1 alternative method to downgrade Samsung stellar

Steps:

1.download STELLAR DOWNGRADE WIPE

2.Extract the file on your desktop

3.Then place the phone in download mode (POWER+VOLUME DOWN+HOME KEY)

(You can also do it by downloading and extracting this file to the desktop. download mode then turning on usb debugging on the phone and running the batch file inside called "put phone in download mode" )

4.once after in download mode open that program and click on start button PC and phone will do the rest!

It needs to be done on ICS

No need to connect it to cdma workshop it can be done from phone dialpad only

And it requires ICS because we can't do tweak on JB on this phone
