JI5 via Kies !!

No idea what this update does but i plugged my phone into Kies and it said there was and update, it flashed fine. And it booted. GPS lock in 5 seconds inside!!!

swype with voice input, signal meter fixed!!
hd camcorder and media hub
task manager did we have one before?
compass appears broken still
GPS is working at my work which im on the 1st floor of a 4 story building, it has never ever worked in here before.
I use to get crashes with flash lite sometimes, pages that were broken now seem to work.

downloading it now.....more info as I have it.
- flash finished...rebooting...
- reboot successful...re-rooting and posting screenshots and info to come..
Version
PDA: T959UVJI5
Phone: T959UVJI5
CSC: T959TMBJFD
Build Time: 2010.09.22
Changelist: 584835
Doesn't seem to be much different from JI4 on a cursory examination. Haven't had a chance to step outside and test GPS. The 5.1 SRS sound effect for video playback is still as broken as it was in JI4.
First time I've gotten a lock outside (in my back yard) to hold after walking back in my basement (where my downstairs den and lab of doom reside). Accuracy and whatnot seems fine. Will have to wait till later to drive around and see if the GPS decides to not develop a mind of it's own and move around on me.

Holy ****! I might restore my phone to stock and flash this update!

are you on stock firmware?

How do you use kies?

Once you are in KIES mode you do have to back out to the Home screen for KIES to actually work...Figured that out the hard way a long time ago.
And it only reliably works with the Samsung driver. the Android ADB drivers for the sdk no worky...

Yup

Download KIES
http://www.samsung.com/ae/consumer/...XSG/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail&tab=support
Put phone in KIES mode
- settings - applications - usb settings - Samsung KIES..
Back out to Home screen or KIES connection will not work...
Start KIES...plug in phone....you should begin to see an MTP mode screen on the phone....
After a bit (KIES takes forever to start) you should be in. Assuming your running a JFD derivative firmware (I was running Bionix 1.3 when I updated) you should be ok.
Your mileage may vary...

I was running Bionix 1.3 rooted when I got the update. I'll assume that this will likely work for any JFD derived firmware....Your mileage may vary..

I checked my settings for an update and it gives this error "DM initialisation not ready. Check network or SIM card." This is obviously different than the regular "no updates" popup.

All of my apps and settings remained intact after the update.

I just figured out too that you have to be running the Samsung UI Launcher. I could not get it to connect using ADW and then when i switched back to the Sammy one it connected perfectly and offered me the new update. Installing on my Rooted Vibrant as we speak!

Note can't connect to Kies

Kies tried to make a connection to Note but fail. I got error message, can not start service on device, please disconnect then reconnect the device. any help please.

note can connect only to the latest kies version. mine is 2.1.1.11124_17. make sure u have the latest kies version.
even after the latest version, sometimes i had problem connecting to kies.
i first opened the kies application in my pc and then connected the cable to phone. it helped. but occasionally i had the connecting problem.
if you need kies just for a transfer,then try using kies air in your phone.

Try these steps,
Make sure you are in Stock ROM
Upgrade Kies
Re install USB Drivers in PC
Try with different USB Ports
Try with Different USB Cable

Try this:
With Kies opened and cable connected, shut down the phone, wait until the menu and return buttons close, then restart phone.

I tried 2 computers already.

Turn Off USB Debugging Mode then try.

I have tried all the suggestions except that power off the phone then restart it.

Try with that , if that also dint work , you do factory reset or Odlin Flash to New Update.

Thanks for all the help. I finally got it to work by power down the note then restarted it.
This is latest firmware.
Current firmware version: PDA:KKA/PHONE:KKS/CSC:KK3(XEU)
latest firmware version: PDA:KKA/PHONE:KKS/CSC:KK3(XEU)
Is this right

Ya may be.. coz different region ll get different version update. in India last update we got KL3
Follow this link see which is the last update for your region
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997

Mine is a UK note

i think XXLA1 2.3.6 is the final update for your region.. but this update is not available via Kies.

What are you trying to do that requires KIES anyway? If it's for file transfer then just put it into mass storage mind or use KIES air!

Tried updating to ICS through KIES. Update failed

Hello guys.
I really need some help. Im going away for 2 weeks on 4 June. And after i come back ill be ghone after 2 days again for 2 weeks and i need my phone!
My story:
I saw an update for my phone to ICS. So i plugged on my laptop and put the update on with KIES 2.1.3.
At about 64% the update didnt go ferther and it gave an error report.
The program KIES shut down, and my phone turned off.
I putted everything back on. But now my phone says this:
''Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in KIES & try again.''
KIES doesnt see my phone anymore. And the recovery mode i found on the internet.
Volume button up, home button+ power button doesnt work.
It keeps going to this screen.
My phone was 2.3.6 standard, non rooted etc etc.
How can i fix this fast?
I tried rooting and flashing, but i just cant do anything with my phone exept this screen i explained.
Thanks in advance.
Mitchell

Just download ODIN app for Windows, get right stock firmware from development thread ( Dr. Ketan's post ) and flash it with ODIN. It's as simple as clicking select file and start. Everything is described in the thread with firmware downloads.

Yes. Then there is hope. Now I recommend you to try flashing one of the stock roms from dr.ketans thread in development section.
Its not very complicated. But feel free to ask if you need more help.

I just cant explain how happy i am with this forum.
Brings so much luck into live
Thanks.
Ill see if i need more help. Hopefully not.

Is there any dutch ICS rom?
Or should i stick with a basic english?

I got exactly the same problem. Called T-Mobile's helpdesk. With everything I asked, the girl said, it's in the manual. Finally, the best she had to offer was for me to send my Note to Samsung.
So then I started looking for a solution myself and found it here.
Solved it with the said solution. Flashing with Odin is a piece of cake. Thanks for the expertise folks.

Good thing we can help. Wouldnt call myself an expert though

Well i searched for hours to. My sister had her S2 upgraded with KIES. That worked, but the ICS update itself was plain suck.
I fixed it thanks to XDA forum. Nothing found on the internet exept sending to help desk.
Same with what i got now.
But now it is fixed and im thankfull to the ones helping.
Now i am willing to try ICS without KIES.

For me this didnt work. KIES had an upgrade, but seems like it still doesnt do the job right.

Ran some tests. Now i am back at the issue.
Now Odin doesnt want to continue updating like KIES always does.
I wish i didnt do the tests...

Now ODIN is stuck at syaing ''BOOT'' above ID:COM.
How can i fix this?

Well seems like the Dutch roms aint working.
I did an European right now wich worked.

[Q] galaxy mini thinks its a GT-S5360

After installing JellyPlus and Cor Plenus kernel on my Galaxy Mini for program compatibility, I find the rom a little unstable, and wish to retun the phone to its origional status
Using CWM to load new rom gives error of there not being enough room on the device
Using Odin downloader, either the phone is not recognised, or the operation works, but sends the phone into boot loop, depending on the version of Odin I use
Using Kies, well, my phone is not 5570 any more, but a 5360 which is not supported for firmware upgrade
I am computer literate, Pc, Tablets, Windows, Android etc - No, I only thought I was
I have tried many things, and do not see how to revert the phone to factory (ie GT-S5570I STOCK ROM from its current status of GT-S5360)
Please, please help. I am happy to take a big kicking if this is easy, obvious, or many times previously covered - a push in the right direction would be greatly appreciated
Thank you, Paul

If you have bootloop, wipe data from stock recovery. And as I read read your post, you flashed Mini Plus ROM and kernel! So be happy, that your phone works!
Sent from my GT-S5570 using xda premium

no he flashed a galaxy y rom on his mini plus
lol
now what you can do is boot into recovery and wipe everything except sdcard from mount and storage option (do not format sdcard) then flash a custom rom meant for mini plus and then try to flash a stock rom through odin

What I did.!
My phone was a GT-S5570I
I flashed the following, thinking that it was for my phone - see last bit?!
[ROM][KERNEL][ICS/JellyBean mod] JELLYBLAST V3 for Galaxy MINI/POP PLUS [GT-S5570i]
I am grateful that the phone still works, and very grateful to all of you who have replied
What I would like to know is how to enable enough free space on the phone so that I can flash back to stock 2.3.6 (as it was when I bought it)
should I pretend that it is a pop plus now, and look for solutions from there?
The 'trasto' has let me flash once again to the above rom / kernel, but often I am stuck without carrier - emergency calls only. Other than hat, it works very nicely!

hmm try to flash a kernel made for ur device , coz the kernel has the main properties of ur device for kies to detect, tat shud be ok,wont be requiring much space for kernel flashing i suppose :good:
btw there shudnt besuch errors, the updater script is acually set to swipe everything out b4 cpying the new files into ur rom
or else flash a custom rom, its easy tat way

just flash a firnware through odin

My thoughts exactly!
Can anyone recommend a method - have tried versions 1.87 (flashes, but boot loops afterwards), and 4.38 which does not recognise the phone
What I would really like to know is if there is a way to ´make room´ on the phone so I can flash through CMR - I too thought that a custom rom would clear everything out of it´s way, as did the jellythingyrom which has successfully put android 4.1.1 on the phone

Don't panic my friend ....
and YES, after upgrading to JellyBlast Samsung Kies recognized as 5360 ...
but everything is working well ..
I can backup / restore like normal phone ....
so why do u bother about that ...?
What I think is 5360 has the same hardware like 5570i ...
or maybe JellyBlast was ported from 5360 ... !!!!!
Here , your question is answered ...
U don't have to need the free space as flashing original FW doesn't need to put the file to phone ...

Thank you, and .......... thank you!! I may be being hysterical, but main reason for wanting to go back to original is because the phone now often is stuck with emergency calls only. On rebooting I also sometimes get an Unlock Network screen (should I have unlocked the phone first? Hmm - I have read so much over the last few days that I am not too sure any more. Shall try flashing the original firmware cwm or odin, or both??!! Have you any views on the problems that >I have re the above posts? Kind regards, Paul PS sim works as normal in nokia phone

Hi Paul ...
According to your post I assumed that u have GT-S5570i like mine ...
I don't face any situation like you posted ...
The reason is may be ...
U didn't wipe the Dalvik cache
try wiping and see ...
And for the Network unlock screen ...
What I think is your country or region CSC code is different from the Jellyblast's default CSC code ...
in that case U need to know your original CSC code and need to change back ...
this is what I thought ...

all done and dusted

Bueno, managed to find what I wanted (other than a functioning (for me!) 4.1.1 rom)
Phone back to original status, and only wasted 6 euros on a replacement sim which I didn't need!
Have located ´'stockrom+odin s5570i' zip - if anyone has similar problems can mail it to them
The zip has the PDA, PHONE(MODEM) and CSC all split up, and I zapped the BOOTLOADER as well, just in case
All as I want it, and at least I now know how to recover when I try a 422 Rom next time!
What a shame Odin not available for this phone in 'one packet option', and what a shame nothing like Nexus Root Toolkit for sgmini

Hi, I have the same problem. Can you please send yours zip and instructions? For 5570 Odin not sees my phone and for 5360 See, but I do not know how to enter the pit. With it a little scared. I tried. Zip update, but everything just mods for 5570, which is now reports differently and therefore probably do not install via clockwork.
I play with it all day and google it to me a little laugh .. omg (when you have 20 tabs open and there is a mess).

Problem solved
So we solved the problem with rpaurey successfully. Odin really need to be right on the GT-S5570I and I think "I" even at the end.
Stock rom I had only a little English and other languages​​, but downloading Czech now. Thanks.

I'm not sure of both what version of your fw is and how are you getting the update. Is it thru wifi/3G, or is it thru kies? But I'm guessing is thru wifi/3G (its called OTA update, OTA stands for Over The Air). go to settings>about phone>software update , and uncheck auto-update.
