Hi there,
I don't know if this already has been asked: Is Samsung doing the European Froyo rollout by model number and localization country code or by the IP address KIES is using?
I could have acces via a Stockholm based proxy if I want to... so will this work for my SGS I bought in Germany?
Best regards
Christian
Hi Chris,
the update is being made based on device type encoded in the name string.

As far as I know you can be even in Alaska with your I9000 to get update via Kies
Cheers,
Pawel

Look on the FROYO thread and do the hosts file trick.

hi, where can you see what product code is it?

Cabsg is available on productcode XEE (Nordic) too, so its not asia specific for some odd reason.

Hello everybody!
A couple of weeks ago I bought a galaxy s from Germany with T-Mobile customization.
With Kies I updated it at 2.2 Froyo. This is the outcome:
PDA: I9000BOJPB
PHONE: I9000BOJP3
CSC: I9000GDTMJP6
Build Info: 2010. 11
As I live in Italy and my provider is Vodafone, I would like to get rid of the T-Mobile customization and possibly change the country code....
Can anyone suggest me how to make it possible?
Thanks in advance
Best regards

Safest way to use Kies Patcher and Kies
The easiest way, as I understand is to to use Kies Patcher to 'tell' Kies that you want the generic stock ROM for your region and let Kies do the rest through a reflash.
Did you tried?
Hi,
I have the same phone and specs exactly.
Did you tried the patch method?
Hi folks. I've searched the forum and can't find anything that specifically addresses this particular issue.
I bought my SGS I9000 unlocked in Egypt (yes, I was recently evacuated) with 2.1 and have updated via KIES to 2.2. My phone is rooted and has the Arabic firmware.
My currently installed versions are:
PDA: I9000JPJPG
Phone: I9000JXJPE
CSC: I9000JPJPF
I don't want the Arabic Firmware and want to permanently change to a US firmware BEFORE 2.3 is released and I want to retain the KIES upgrade capability. My question is this: How do I change the permanent location of my phone so all future KIES upgrades will be automatic? Thanks.

Just curious, why do you want to retain KIEs upgrade capability in the first place?
Well basically I jusy want to retain my apps (I know about and have AppBrain) and I want the phone to be as though it was bought here.

Hello everyone,
I just received my Galaxy I9000, and made sure i can access the Download Mode and the Recovery Mode using the 3 button combos explained in the wiki.
I bought this phone in the united states, as an unlocked phone. Since i live in South America (Ecuador to be exact), i don't have an official version for this market and i'm using this international version I9000.
Checked the Firmware version installed and is the following:
PDA: I9000BUJP7
Phone: I9000BUJP5
CSC: I9000GVD2JP5
Build Info: 2010.10
Also checked the unlock status:
Personalization Status
Network Lock: OFF
Network Subset Lock: OFF
SP Lock: OFF
CP Lock: OFF
My phone's firmware is a provider one (Vodafone), looked in samfirmware to check for new firmwares, but i need some advice:
First, since my phone has a provider specific firmware, can i flash my phone with a "generic" samsung firmware?
If so which ones should i choose the European versions or the America/Australia firmwares??
I see in the list for europa versions this one as the last:
I9000XWJS8 ## 512.PIT Version 2.2.1
And for america this one:
I9000BVJJPD ## 512.PIT Version 2.2 2010 December
I was tempted to go for the european version but im just not shure.
Also what about the MODEM/CSC, do i need to flash those too? since those are also customized versions from the provider?
I dont mind loosing all the samsung apps, and the vodaphone ones, as they are pretty useless here.
Any advice on what is the best path to go from here is appreciated.
I bought this phone so i can learn to develop for android but im really new to this world.
Thanks
Search up goots tutorial. I think the CsC version just determines which stock apps get installed when you flash to be honest, I picked xeu because it's Europe generic but I dont think it matters
The froyo I had from goots link had multi CSC and you could pick and choose

You can use latest European version np. Im on it now but im from Europe but was on JPG 1 week ago and its from Asia. CSC is what gives you your APN for data traffic and the keyboard languages included but u can swap that easily using the Romkitchen or u can input your provider data manualy. Modem is your wifi, data network and gps driver you can use any the one from JS8 is very good so is JPG one. With modem its possible that with JQ1 u cant acces the 850mhz band immediatly but there are allreadu solutions to fix that on this forum.
Best advice i can give u is follow this guide:

Hi everyone.
i would like to ask you for help about upgrade from 2.1 to froyo 2.2. i tried to do it via Kies but it always wrote me that my device cannot be upgrated. i read some news about it and found that i have product code GT-I9000HKDPLS. it is for Poland provider Plus. but as i read, poland had released froyo 2.2 so i dont understand where is trouble. anyway, i am actually in Czech republic so i think i need to change my product code to XEZ. i saw a lot of discussions about it and they wrote there, to do some change by myself to change product code. but always it was written that it is for our dangerous and responsibility... so i dont want to crash my device.
As i know, this site is where can i found safety information, so please help me and explain me how to do update to froyo 2.2. in case i need to change product code by myself, please describe me way how to do it. i am amateur in software changes.
Thanks a lot.
Your phone came from a phone network provider .
Poland provider Plus when they release the firmware it will be on Kies .
Release may have been halted as Android 2.3 about to be released .
If you do not want to mess with the phone then a service centre may upgrade for you .
