[Q] What is the latest fireware for GT I9000? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, what is the latest firmware for GT-I9000 now ? because when I connect my phone with Kies ( Kies version I am using is 1.5.3.10093_82 ), it says
my current version: PDA:JF4 / PHONE:JF4 / CSC:OLB
This device's version cannot be updated.
So this is the newest firmware for now ? since i am new with Smartphone.
Thanks

I am getting the same error. I am from Malaysia where are you from? have you root your phone?

Latest firmware for Malaysia yet to come out.
The Latest for Asian is from Hong Kong(I9000ZSJPD), if you want update using kies, you need perform registry hack make your kies think that you are from Hong Kong(I suppose). However, i cant get HIDSWVER from Hong Kong so not able to update thru Kies too.
I read some thread said lagfix need to remove so that kies able to update it.

I think the latest firmware for Malaysia is I9000DXJPA. This is Froyo 2.2. You need to download the latest Kies version in order to see it in the update option.
I have been using this original firmware for sometime and it is great. It really makes me wonder again, what's with all the lag-fix when there is not lag issue.

What about Europe. What's latest official firmware. My device has i9000xxjm1 and kies says it's latest one :/

you can update ROM by using Odin if you can't update by Kies
How to update (Thai) >> www .droidsans . com/galaxy-s-froyo-update-available
Ok, so Im a little slow when it comes to this stuff. Im trying to understand how this works. I am from Canada living in Thailand. I bought the Galaxy here in Thailand with the expectation to take it home with me. I have looked at the firmware on the phone and tells me its DXJF4. I was wondering why I can not upgrade to Froyo using Kies? My understanding so far is I need to upgrade via ODIN or trick kies into thinking I have a different firmware for it to do the upgrade itself. So Im wondering what the difference is between JPH and JF4?
Also, has the update for Froyo not been released thru Kies in Thailand yet? Is that what the issue is?
Same situation
Hi,
I'm in the same situation, I'm living in Indonesia and on JG4. I bought the phone outright and it is rooted and unlocked. I have tried tricking kies with no luck and thinking trying odin now.
I have the JPO rom i downloaded for the UK, will this kill my phone if i flash to this European rom or do i have to download the update specificaly for JG4?
Thanks!

[Q] Need some clarification on KIES is looking for

Lots of us are trying to get our phones back to Stock Firmware so KIES can update to 2.2.1 & at some point 2.3. In my case i9000T Latin America (TTT) model which seems to be very popular on the various US sites selling unlocked i9000 phones (New Egg & Expansys-us)
Many of us have used Euro 2.2 or 2.2.1 Firmware without issue using ODIN 1.3.
What happened in the process of applying the Euro firmware that keeps KIES from updating once you've rolled back to a stock firmware. In my case i9000TUBJH1 which is android 2.1 (ECLAIR.UBJI1) .
I've tried everything from changing the Product Code from KOR, TTT, PCW and any other one that might trigger KIES (1.5 or 2.0) in allowing the update.
I have 2 of these phones. One is untouched stock firmware. It was i9000TUBJG7 and after KIES update it's now (i9000TUBJP9 with a TTT Product Code). again, just trying to get my other phone back to stock and then update to 2.2.1 so both phones are the same.
Which file is KIES looking at to allow the update? CSC?
I'm not sure why the i9000T firmware is not readily available on samfirmware.
Thanks - many of us are just trying to learn the basics and spent hours reading these forums.
Try reading the last few pages of this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959806
why bother with kies anyway i have a 19000t.. just use odin and flash the stock rom form samsungfimrwares.com or a custom one like docs etc..
i am currently on jpy with jl2 modem.
also once you have clockwork on you can also flash one of docs roms via that.
or is it that you are trying to get a stock rom via kies. that is not on samsungfirmwares.com ?
if that is the case i think the reason may be that these stock firmwares were never release via kies?
I bricked my initial handset using KIES as it crashed during the update. Won't be using it again to flash my phone.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Samfirmware & i9000T
No sign of any i9000T (TTT) Latin America firmware on Samfirmware.com. The latest update via KIES for this phone was about 10 days ago. Version i9000TUBJP9 which installs 2.2.1.
Again, just trying to get back to stock. I'll be passing this phone to another user at some point and they'll need KIES to keep it simple.
Any help in understanding what keeps KIES from updating after you've installed stock 2.1 firmware would be great.
I'll keep reading ...
thanks
Kies reads the codes from the phone .
Firmware 2.2 Product Code Vodaphone Hardware ID Vodaphone .
Looks for update for the product code if all matches downloads .
Product Code stock Hardware ID stock matches nothing on its Database = no update .
Route back i have used is flash Eclair spoof product code via Kies registry patcher . Upgrade and save rom at the same time to enable reflash to product codes firmware .

Did you manage to get the update from Kies? You would do a great service if you can share the firmware.
Kies looks at the product code. I replied to your other post.

[Q] unable to uprgade firmware with kies

hey guys,

i get the message that my version can't get updated.
i think the problem is my csc.
PDA: JMI
PHONE: JMA
CSC: JMG (KOR)
i don't know if KOR stands for korea, i guess.
but is there a way that i can get back to stock CSC?
im using the SGT: P1000 euro model.

Just flash a stock rom via Odin and you're good. Then connect to PC and update with Kies.

I've downloaded the latest euro firmware from samfirmware dot com and after the installation, my tab is at stock rom with the PHN csc code, this is the one that i needed for the dutch country and im able to receive update's trough kies.
Only kies is showing u have the latest firmware already, thats okey.
But im sure when 2.3 GingGerbread comes i'm able to get it with kies.
Good Luck!
@d a boskloper, i hope so... 2.3 will come to galaxy tab im waiting for this to happen...

[Q] Kies Update only in region of GT?

Let me get this straight- Kies can only update Galaxy Tab Firmware if it matches the region of the previous firmware with the region where you are at present?
-I mean if I bought my GT in Hongkong and bring it to Dubai I have to go to hongkong to use Kies to update?
i believe it checks your tab's current configuration of the firmware via PDA PHONE CSC versions. if it matches a configuration found on the server it checks this if its the latest firmware for that said configuration if not you will be prompted with an update notice. if your configuration cannot be found on the server you would get a notice "tab version cannot be upgraded" or something along those lines. i think this is regardless of geographical location.
Does it mean that there is a record in Samsung server of the fw that is associated with my GT when it left the factory?
i don't think so. it just checks for the proper firmware configuration.
If so then how come Kies states that the stock Italian GB cannot be updated? It should instead state that it is the latest......
In another post you stated that the DX firmware you installed was recognized by Kies as the latest firmware.I am assuming you are in the Philippines. If I flash this fw on my tab will it still be recognized by Kies as latest even if I am in the Middle East?
stumped me there.
way back when i tried taiwan rom P1000ZTKC1, kies was able to detect it as official though...

But AFAIK, Taiwan is in the far east so in the same region.
Ahh well, weekend for us here, I might try out to flash the DX firmware later. Thanks for patiently answering.
I do not like to flash/update to the Arabic fw though-I don't read arabic and also not a Muslim so I don't need the Quran , Qibla direction and the prayer times.
BTW, what is the difference between the DX and the Italian GB?
mostly just the localizations/languages available out of the box.
I tried the dx fw and was able to boot successfuly.noticed the extra icon on the home screen-I think it was readrs hub cant recall now. But when I issued *#1234# i only got.the phone part.pda and csc were blank. Of course kies will not see the fw if blanks so I reflashed with the same result-BLANK PDA ,CSC.
At this point I made a decision to give my tab abreak and reflashed to the latest Arabic fw JM5. The process was succesful and Kies saw the fw as the latest. This reinforced my suspicion either the tab is registered with samsung to have arabic fw when it left factory OR that Kies will only update if the tab is within the region.
No rom flashing for me for now. Thanks for replies.

try flashing to xxpq1 first then to dxjpc...
i was having that error with *#1234# when i manually updated through odin
Yes I thought of the csc file you gave me. There is another issue, when I rooted using CF ROOT my dx fw and rebooted the sound which plays about same time as the samsung logo plays about few seconds AFTER the samsung logo disappears. So there was an issue I cant see. This happened also the second time I flashed.
I will wait for the official JM5 update thru Kies and rest my tab for the moment from the stress of flashing.

To put this at rest. It happens via CSC. Sammy doesnt care where you are located. CSC is Country Specific Code. Kies checks phone pda and csc to check the device has an official untouched firmwarr. Then checks the server against the CSC for instance if its ITV italy. It will find the GB update and roll it out.
Then how come when I flashed italian gb fw with itv or xeu csc kies says that it cannot be upgraded? Maybe I the stock fw from xda is not official?
Then the froyo I got from samfirmware happens to be official?
Samfirmware also does not guarantee kies will recognize the fw they provide.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using Tapatalk
Simple. Sammy pulled out the italian firmware I know what I am talking about. My tab updated numerous times from jj4 to jk5 to jmg with DBT CSC since i got the tab from germany.
Ah ok. Thanks for the explaination. Now only the Asian dx gb fw is official, according to noxxious info.

Available in Singapore according to this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14532927&postcount=32
That is just next to malaysia.
I can now conclude that region where I am in now does not affect Kies. I have since updated my tab to the latest Asian GB even if I am in the Middle East!

Unable to upgrade firmware via Kies after flashing to stock rom

Hi,
I flashed my SGS to CM7 and don't really like it. I have downloaded the firmware ( I9000DXJF4 )from sammobile and flashed it. However, I am unable to upgrade the firmware using Kies to the new firmware available thru Samsung.
My current version is as followed
PDA: I9000DXJF4
PHONE: I9000DXJF4
CSC: I9000OLBJF4
From the look of my phone, everything seem to be back to its original setting, with all the singtel (my telco provider ) apps. Now I am trying to upgrade to Froyo 2.2 (I think) using Kies. Kies prompted that it is unable to update the firmware. I tried the latest version of kies and also version 1.5. Both are unable to do so.
Anyone can kindly advise?
Try changing your CSC code to XEU. I encountered some issues with KIES updates when having CSC code KOR.
Hi,
I tried to change to XUE but this option is not available. I go into CSC by *#272*HHMM#. Is it wrong?
*#272*???????????????# (??????????????? it's your IMEI, it must have 15 digits)
or try https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nfye.insanity.toolbox
Hi,
Thanks for your help. I got my IMEI code. It pop up in a small window. Then I tried to change the CSC using the method u mentioned. But nothing happen. When I press the call button, it say "USSD code running..." then follow by "UNKNOWN APPLICATION"
I also tried to install the software, but it is only for android 2.2 and above. I tried to find the crack version for the premium version but cant find any. Do you have the premium version? Can upload to mediafire and send me the link?
Never try to install via KIES ..
Install via ODIN the Firmware you want it's simply better, even if ODIN is unofficial.
Introductions you will find by googleing I think .. it's easy.
Good luck and have fun
Hi,
Ya, using Odin now. But still prefer Kies over Odin. A lot of stuff become automatic with Kies.
I just flash to DXJG4 hoping to be able to link to kies but it failed.
I read that once the lagfix is fixed, there will be problem with kies. Am I fixing the lagfix in anyway thus leading to this problem?
Did you get solution to your problem? I had the same problem with a Galaxy Wonder... when i tried to upgrade via kies i got this screen..
That I cannot post actually because the forum prevents me from doing it...
BUT...
I tried OTA upgrade with perfect results... And the funny thing is that I NEVER before could start OTA...
BTW everything's fine now and I bumped to 2.3.6 ggbrd
