[Q] When will the next Kies update be? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I see Samsung is working on their I9000 firmware, but when will they officially release a new update via KIES?
Ofcourse I am using latest leaked version. But I was just wondering.

They don't usually have release dates available, so it is very hard to tell, they even don't have the same version of kies for different countries.
I've seen that Samsung UK is always one of the first sites to get Kies updated, other countries don't update Kies until later:

You can check regularly if a new version is available.. but your kies does the same thing every time you open it...

[Q] What is the most current version of KIES for Canada (Bll Mobility)?

Hi all...
I am just wondering what the most current version of KIES is here in Canada?
I am still on v1.5.1.10074_45 and have seen users with newer versions here on xda (from other countries I believe) but there seems to be no update available when I try to update in KIES itself.
Anyone know what is the newest for us here in Canada and the best way to get it?
PS... I know that KIES sucks but am still on official JH2 and waiting as patiently as possible for official froyo.
last time I checked, it was still on JH2

Im not talking about the firmware for the phone... Im talking about KIES iteslf. Do you know what the newest version of KIES is for us Canadians?
all Kies are created equal
it finds your ROM via your phone model, not Kies version

If this is true then why are there so many threads here with people talking about the newest versions of KIES and how it seems to be connected to when they get firmware updates, etc? And why is there so many different versions then?
EDIT - Does this mean that the version of KIES I have now IS the most current version for Canada?

Thank You jpaik. How did you get KIES to update to this or did you download it directly from Samsungs website? I have tried to update through KIES but it just sits there and does nothing (typical KIES) lol!!!

I update through Kies itself. It's a hit-or-miss process. I suspect their server is getting hammered at certain times of the day. I have often closed and re-opened Kies several times until I make a connection. Either an update will start or the message states that this is the latest version (which itself is sometimes untrue!)
the download link for the latest Kies is on the wiki
just click my SGS wiki link and get it
Kies is not related to the ROM releases
i updated to 1.5.3.10093_81
i have a 19000ugJG9 phone... still havn't been able to connect to kies to fix my 3 button issue... pretty queer.
edit: downloaded the version from bell canadas site... 1.5.1.10072_3 in hope i would be able to connect it to my phone...
still nothing... says 'connected' on my phone but never manages to connect to kies.

Froyo update

Hey guys I'm currently at jp2 do I need to downgrade to stock eclair to be able to receive the official 2.2 update. I still dont see any update for my phone. I'm for the Philippines btw..
as far as i know , no.
I had the first wave from froyo on October and recently updated to the official one released in November.
Although i had froyo allready when i connected to kies it said that i had a firmware available.
Try connecting it to kies and see if you have that option when you click "Upgrade firmware"
If not it means that froyo hasn't arrived for your country and will be soon
thanks..maybe froyo would be available this month..

[Q] Can't find any firmware updates

Bought my Tab from Singapore back in Nov'10 and as soon as I got home, I immediately updated it to DXJK2 (which was the latest official rom available at that time).
Last week, my friend bought one from a local retailer here in the Philippines. When he showed it to me, I was surprised to learn that it had a newer rom (the unit is not carrier locked) pre-installed. Since both of our units were Asian, I thought there might be a rom update available for my unit as well. So when I got home, I immediately connected my Tab to Kies and, surprise, no update available.
I know that there is an official 2.2.1 update available from samfirmware.com. My question is, how come if there are so many newer roms available, Kies doesnt find any for mine? Im talking bout only official roms here loaded from Kies. I know I can still force it to update with Odin but that kinda defeats the point.

Can't update to 2.3 Gingerbread due "Device Version Cannot Be Updated"

Hi,
I have the 1.5.3_10124 version of Kies
When i connect the usb, everything goes fine.
but then it shows:-
Model Name: GT-I9000
Current Version PDA:JP6 / PHONE: JP2 / CSC: JP5
This device's version cannot be updated.
PLEASE HELP ME OUT!
I just can't believe people still rely on kies and get confused and mad because there wasn't an update or something. Get the last version of kies and try with it. If there is no update for your operator then kies won't find an update. Even if there are gingerbread updates for other countries there may be none for yours, so you can wait for weeks to get one. All of you should realize how useless kies is and that if you want new updates only from kies you should be patient (it might take quite some time), you shouldn't get angry and you shouldn't make new threads about how come kies didn't find new updates for your device's version.
Then you can download Odin and start using android the way it was intended - like an open source OS and not a closed dependent one relying only on Samsung and kies.
Just use Odin and flash the new rom

[Q] Upgrade from kies

Hi all
i am using darky's 9.5 ROM
now i wanna upgrade to an official ginger bread ROM through kies
what should i do now?
Kies always keeps on saying
"No update is available for your mobile"
Kies uses your current firmware info to determine whether there is an update for your rom version and carrier. Because custom rom's don't fit these properly they just appear as not update available. I suggest you go here for the Kies Patcher: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835628
Download it and spoof Kies to your carrier code then try and update. If it doesn't work then it may mean it isn't available for your carrier and probably easier to update yourself
