[Q]Can update via Kies? SingTel Unit currently with HK firmware - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can i still use kies to update if i currently using official HK firmware I9000ZSJG4, but my product code is singtel's GT-I9000HKAXSO?
the product code is default. Or do i need to trick kies and go back to I9000DXJG4?
And how safe is it to do it?

Should be alright to do a direct update from KIES.

Look on the forum for JM1 (which is an official firmware, or ones corresponding to your region e.g., JG4 for Asia Pacific) and flash with Odin, the use Kies to update to the latest in your region.

Firmware version needed to update to official froyo

Hi everyone i have a unlocked uk i9000 i was wondering what firmware version i need to be on to get the new official froyo rom through kies ive just flashed too jm1 with baseband jg6. plugged my phone into kies but there is no update available, is it because its not available yet or because im on the wrong firmware is this one official.

[Q] Kies won't let me update to Froyo. (Vodafone).

You would need to flash back to your original vodafone software, as that is what kies is looking for.
I got the text from Vodafone this morning but Kies says
"Current Version: PDA: JM1/PHONE:JG6/CSC:JG7
This device's version cannot be updated"
Could this have something to do with the fact that I originally updated to the Nordic Froyo in September via a registry hack and then went back to JM1 via Odin flashing?
I was hoping I could return to branded official Vodafone Firmware incase I need to return under warranty.
i have same problem, was instal froyo from here now have I9000XXJP2 and can update to official froyo pleas help
On the suggestion of somebody in a different thread I reflashed to JM1 firmware and now the error message is
"Current Version: PDA: JM1/PHONE:JM1/CSC:JM1
This device's version cannot be updated"
Anyone got any ideas?

How would I do that?
forget kies. install the rom separately from samfirmware.com. get yourself odin to do it.

I have actually done this now, but I was hoping to return to Vodafone branded firmware in case I need to return under warranty.

i'm sure someone on here will get there hands on it eventually and publish a link.
You need to an older version of kies and search on here for the kies registry patcher. Check out the vodafone eforum for a how to.

[q] galaxy s newest optus firmware?

Hey all these firmware codes are so confusing and whatever but can someone tell me what the newest official Optus firmware aswell as the best modem and CSC for reception I can't update via Kies for some unknown reason even though i installed a supposably official optus ROM :S help is appreciated
Update to what through Kies .2.3.3 is only released 15.4.11 and yet to roll out across all areas .
The rom you installed how is it an official optus rom was it branded optus or did you just update to a stock Samsung rom via Odin .
Kies only produces an update for branded network provided phones if it finds the correct product codes not from stock rom .

[Q] Downgrade from 2.3.3 to Official 2.2.1

Hello there, my phone is an European factory unlocked, unrooted that i have upgraded to I9000XXJVK some weeks ago.
I'd like to know if it's possible to downgrade back to an official 2.2.1 so i can start again updating from Kies. I'd also like to know which Android ROM is official because there seems to be plenty of them.
All Android roms are official use the latest one for your phone .
All Android roms are stock Samsung roms not the branded rom that came with your phone .So no upgrade from Kies as Kies only reads branded phones id .
#
#How to use the search button and read the post downgrading 2.2 to 2.2
Kies upgrade fom 2.2 will require spoofing fw .

What do you mean with branded? I bought my phone from Samsung and not from an Operator
In which case downgrade current firmware to one below the latest one for your phone on Kies . Then try Kies if it fails its due to your Product Code changing with the JVK flash . You may need to use spoof fw to change product code .

Branded as in Kies upgrades network branded phones by a matching product code if you have changed firmware via Odin codes may be incorrect .

Hi there
I actually did this today (as I want to await the official release on Kies).
Best bet is to use Odin to get to JPU: http://hotfile.com/dl/99955459/dea6962/I9000XXJPU.rar.html (this is a 3 file ROM - I used repartition).
Then use Odin to get to JPY (the latest official UK release): http://hotfile.com/dl/100618077/49a97b4/I9000XXJPY.rar.html (this is a single file - no repartition).
This got me back to 2.2.1 so I can continue to use Kies for future releases. You might also want to check your CSC is correct using *#272*YourIMEI#
Hope this helps.
James
In order to get back to 2.2.1 you have to Spoof a old 2.2.1 or a 2.1 firmware. To get Europe 2.2.1 you can spoof
Product Code: GT-I9000HKDXEU
PDA: I9000XXJF3
CSC: I9000OXAJF3
Phone:I9000XXJF3
This will make Kies give you
