[Q] Is there a offical Froyo update? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
Is there a official froyo release for the Galaxy S?
I am not sure about this because i read different things on the net.
And if there is one ... how do i install it?
I tried to install the f**cking thing of a software called Kies.
The installation always gets aborted So, currently i am pretty stucked.

not yet
you have to wait, deadline is close

Do i get informed by my phone when it is availible?
And what seems the be the way it gets installed? OTA? Or do i have to flash it with Kies, which can't be installed on my system?

Model: GT-i9000
Current Version: PDA:JFB / PHONE:JF5
This Device's Version cannot be updated.
Its driving me nuts waiting for the update.

Patience is the key here. The updates will come sooner than later but the release dates will vary on the region you are in. the latest one has come for UK.

I doubt they would release a major upgrade on a saturday.
It will probably come out next monday.
And since next week is the last week of september, I have high hopes samsung didn't lie to everyone and we will be seeing it then.

I8700XXKA1 Firmware

The I8700XXKA1 ROM has been spotted in the wild. Look here. KA1 means it is from January 2011. It includes the NoDo updated Windows Phone version 7.0.7355.0. It is confirmed that ChevronWP7 is not working anymore. I hope we can get a firmware-dump here as soon as possible. If we have a firmware-dump, we'll be able to switch between 7.0.7004 and 7.0.7355 by reflashing the ROM. This can be usefull when trying to find a new sideload-jailbrake. Anybody with a JTAG and a new Omnia7, please dump here!
Any news yet?

SamFirmware says it will be online "later". See Tweet 1 and Tweet 2. But it is't here yet.
I'm more interested to know if there are any performance differences like the last firmware update.
If nothings changed much then its not worth me potentially bricking my phone over.
The last firmware update (February, 2011) was a preparatory update for actual update coming later this year. It did not change anything, really.

I'm talking about firmware, not the pre nodo update.
The last new firmware improved the GPS, HSDPA, Wifi etc so it connected a lot faster.

You guys are talking about two different things. The KA1 update contains Windows Phone build 7.0.7355 which contains the NoDo update. The February update that zyborg is talking about is Windows Phone build 7.0.7008 which is only a very small update and it preceeds the NoDo update. EDDS asks if the KA1 contains improvements like the JK1 update did. JK1 contained updates for the Samsung bios. The KA1 may contain updates for the Samsung firmware too, but I'm not sure about that. It does contain a new version of Windows Phone, which is known to have performance improvement due to better memory management. So it does have performance improvements, except they are not in the bios, but in Windows Phone OS.
Edit: Too late ;-)
Just a little heads up here: I got some version numbers.
First the version numbers for the 'old' I8700XXJK1:
OS: 7.0.7004.0
Firmware: 2424.10.11.1
Hardware: 3.15.0.4
Radio software: 2424.10.11.1
Radio Hardware: 0.0.0.800
Bootloader: 4.11.0.3
Chip SOC: 0.36.2.0
And now the versions for the new I8700XXKA1:
OS: 7.0.7355.0
Firmware: 2424.11.1.1
Hardware: 3.15.0.4
Radio software: 2424.11.1.1
Radio hardware: 0.0.0.800
Bootloader: 4.11.0.5
Chip-SOC: 0.36.2.0
So the new phones have NoDo, still the same hardware revisions, and minor software updates in the Samsung BIOS.

NoDo seems to be 7.0.7389.0. So this ROM does'nt have the final NoDo release.

Yeah, I saw that too. It's remarkable, because people who have this firmware on their phone report that they have Copy/Paste and that ChevronWP7 is not working. So it definitely has NoDo, but somehow not the final version of the update.
My device arrived today,
OS; 7.0.7355.0.
It has copy and paste.
So far have been unable to sicronize with zune, zune complains about not being able to acess some files.

Try updating Zune. Maybe you don't have the latest version.
I guess you wouldn't be able to make a ROM dump, are you? (I don't know how to do it. I guess it can only be done with JTAG, or something).
I will look into it, but I'm a nob on wp7 at the moment.
Zune problem fixed, the old style hard reset.

Nope there is no NoDo update for Omnia yet. Samfirmware they said their working on getting it. But it was a long time ago. At this stage you might as well just wait for the march update. First half of the month is over so according to MS we should get the notification for update soon

It said 2nd half of the month. Will you relax Im sure it will be here soon Better a bit late than having tons of bricked phones.
Dont forget MS issues an update to OEM's, OEM's issue it to carrier. They all check whats good and whats not and and then MS has to address what MS and Carriers think is ok and not. Its quality assurance. Every large company has to do this. MS being a giant doesnt make this easier. The update probably has to be signed of by tons of people.
And Brandon Watson said that their working on making sure that WP7 updates are issued out faster in the future.
Looking at the leaked roms for HTC phones that include nodo update, these have been ready for a while and are fully functioning. Im sure its carriers being slow to test the software and be ready to send it out. As they said they will issue the updates to everyone at the same time. So slow carriers and OEM's can slow down the process too in order to avoid poeple crying that some one gets update faster than the other.
So rather than it being Microsofts fault its OEM's and Carriers fault for slow reaction. I would be far happier if MS did what google does and release their own developers phone that would get the updates first and screw the carriers.
relax??!! ;-)
I am the kind of guy got on a plane to london to get the 8gb omnia 7 the minute it was releasead in Payg on three ;-) not to wait to have it officialy released in Poland or germany... ;-)))
but I do understand your point and fully agree on that.
I'd also prefer MS to release the updates via their own channels rather than through carriers.
I am just little mad because in the beginning it was officiall that nodo will be released on Feb 14th, than march 8th, then first half of march and now it is second...
we should get used to not paying much care to what ms officials say...

[Q] ICS update not avaiable through Kies?

Hey everyone, just wondering if the update for the note through Kies is also regien dependent?
I'm US based and OTA update is not available so I tried using Kies but when I connect my note to the computer, it is still saying that my current fw is the lates (which is still GB2.3.6).
Any ideas? Thanks!

Oh ok! I thought that the update via Kies would be for all international versions of the note. Oh well, I guess I'll have to wait for at least a US release of ICS then.

Yup, my note is the international one. It's just that I'm based here in the US but I bought my note through Amazon. I'm not sure though where my note originally came from though...is there anyway to find out? Sorry for being such a noob, this is actually my first android phone.
Ok I looked underneath the battery, it only says Made by Samsung. I have the blue international (says in the box) but really, it looks black to me though a it does have a shade of blue to it. ^^
I have the ics update available via kies right now, although I'm scared top hit update since kies bricked my vibrant. My GNote came from Germany....think I should update? Or wait for the ota?
Hmm..if it's official via kies, it should be pretty safe. =)
If ever, I would think OTA updating would carry almosts the same risks updating via Kies would since you are updating to an official fw anyway.
Happy that you have it since you have a german made note, im hoping that the asian made ones (korea/china) would get released soon as well!
I caved in, I updated....couldn't wait for the ota So far, I love it! Running very smooth. It was a little laggy at first, so I did a factory reset and it's been perfect since. No issues. My quadrant seemed to drop though, don't know what that's all about.
I did read Germany GNotes are first, but I'm sure yours will be soon
Wow, glad you had no trouble updating! Enjoy ICS! =)
Thank you! Yeah I was super worried because I updated my vibrant to 2.2 on kies in December and it stopped in the middle of installing the update....it killed my vibrant But it looks like they completely redid kies, it's much nicer now. You're next Seraph

Few questions from a newbie

First of all i bought my first Android phone about 10 days ago, so I'm new to this world. I want to update my P880 to jelly bean, but I'm too paranoid to use root. The update should be out by now, so my question is: is it really out, and if it is can i update my phone directly without my pc suite? Also, i want to Know if there is a way to flash a rooted phone to the original version?

You don't need root to flash.
You can re-flash your original room.
Read more about root, battery drain and how to flash.
There are several methods, choose the best depending on your needs.
Be sure that you know what you're doing before you start.

Nope, the official release isn't here yet. And yes, you don't need your PC to update your phone providing that you have decent Internet connection. You can always go OTA, it's available right in your phone setting.
As of flashing a rooted phone, you can actually unroot it, without the hassle of reflashing your phone . There's a feature in the app for you to do so.
Anyway, you don't need to root your device to get JB, just download the kdz and flash it with kdz updater. The walk through is in general thread. A word of caution though, rolling back to ICS might be quite a task.
Btw, what regional rom are you on now?

Wrong, go back to ICS is easier as any other flash. The difference is that needs to be done with LGFlash Tool. Takes about 5 minutes, less than with kdz.

So confused - will p7 ever receive Lollipop Update, or do you really have to root?

Hi guys.
So I've been searching for this information for a very long time. Every news say that p7 is going to receive the update and that it would roll out in June / July.
Am I missing something? I really want the update, but I dont want to root my phone.
Btw, I live in Denmark, Europe, if that helps.

Then you haven't searched enough
There's currently a BETA test running for P7 Lollipop. The current version (B815) is running pretty well but we're still waiting for the final release.
Huawei keeps changing the release dates so no one knows for sure when we'll receive the final version.
Some sources say November...

You are totally right, normally a beta test lasts only a couple of weeks. Apparently this doesn't apply to Huawei
You will receive Lollipop whenever it's ready and automatically via OTA.

Seems to be only minor visible changes. No new options I can see.
One thing that did change was that I can use EE's WiFi calling, which wasn't available before on the beta. This was activated automatically by EE via a text.
Camera, WiFi, network all seem same.
Will have to wait maybe a couple of days to see how the battery life is.

Do you think it would work if we flashed the android nouget version B360 over the B182 version of mashmallow we currently have ??
Yes what happens if a non Beta on 182 tries to install the latest Android N ROM?

It just doesn't work, I downloaded the B182 ROM last night and installed it, no problems.
On Firmware Finder there are a couple of ROMS viz. B360, B361 and another B361, I've tried to download all 3 and flash them (using dload method) and have had NO success whatsoever with any of them.
I am now reverting to checking the update page in settings every hour or so!
BTW I've tried the dialler method too and that doesn't work neither
What's the huawei updater way?
Why is this phone such a piece of crap, differing version per region for what is the same software.
Why do OEMs insist on making such an industry out of something this straight forward
