Hi.
My first thread here, thanks for all the work you folks putting in making our Galaxy a greate phone. Hope I dont start a thread that are already existing.
Yesterday I falshed my phone with the I9000XWJM2 firmware and experiensed something strange in Kies afterwards.
It told me that there was new firmware I could choose to install!! I havent experienced that before.
Is this a way to get back to the original firmware? I know from the FAQ that there are no way to do it, but what happens if I get KIES to install firmware?
Best regards,
Jens
hey jens are you sure kies offers you firmware ? or just update for KIES i mean update Kies destop software ?
It only shows up after I installed I9000XWJM2 and before SAMSET 1.8, as far as I have seen so far. Will try again tonight when im back from work.
I can see that other people in here is talking about new KIES version. I will check tonight whatever its firmware or KIES that it want to update.

I am getting the error in samsung kies "This version of the device can not be updated."
Please can any one tell me how to fix this issue . . since i really want to upgrade my galaxy, "ALSO TELL ME IS MY PHONE ROOTED OR UNROOTED" please reply . . . .
If your phone is rooted you have what is known as 'superuser' permissions. You can confirm if your phone is rooted by downloading a free terminal emulator from the android market. Tupe 'su' in the terminal and you will get a request for superuser permission. If this happens you have a rooted sgs. I am not sure about your kies error though, however if it persists there are many alternative ways of upgrading your firmware and can be found here on xda.
Hope this helps

stupid question: what kies version do u have?
Download Kies version 2.0.0.11032_12_9 from here http://tinyurl.com/3c8rkjp
I'd try doing what ManMountain suggested first. Update your version of Kies first. If there is no option to update through Kies go to the Samsung website and download Kies from there.
I have the latest version of samsung kies ..... I downloaded it from samsung website .... Please tel me how to root n install ginger bread offcial version ....
Official version Gingerbread you wait until Kies has the version for your phones product code .It is not a worldwide release its rolled out over days or weeks .
"This version of the device can not be updated."
= no update yet for your phone try in a few days .

Im not sure that is entirely correct...
Kies SHOULD say "Latest firmware already installed"
If you have the this device version cannot be updated you will need to do the kies reg hack to make it pick your phone up as something else and then install FW that way.
You may have to do a couple of FW installs to get onto GB

Download Root Check from Market very handy to find out if you've successfully rooted or not.
To root read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
To upgrade to Gingerbread read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037584
Read everything carefully until you're comfortable trying it. If you're not then don't, the good people on here make stuff like this a lot easier for all of us, so it shouldn't be too daunting
Bear in mind the official Gingerbread roms in the link above may not be for your region, they weren't for mine, but I upgraded anyway and everything's working fine (though the auto-brightness seems to have a mind of it's own).
Read, and re-read and best of luck if you decide to go ahead
Kies SHOULD say "Latest firmware already installed"
Never ever seen that or it reported its always been as the OP said and is even as i write .
Users should also be aware that Google have pulled the current update and i would not be in a rush to update yet .

i have the same problem! "This version of the device can not be updated"
and this is not about kies...before flash any room i had eclair (orange romania).
and after apears the froyo version on kies but there was no way to upgrade through kies...don't know why
maybe something is locked on the phone!
Kies is useless...
I had the same problem. Kies detects the new firmware version, starts to download it and gives the message that the device cannot be updated.
After wasting several hours I downloaded the JVB firmware from samfirmware.com and flashed using Odin in minutes. Anybody facing this issue should forget Kies and head to samfirmware.com...
Hi i own a galaxy s PLUS yes a 9001 but i was not sure where to post.
Anyway i wanted to update the firmware to 4.0 and i downloaded kies and updated through that. At 4% it blocked and dissconnected and i am now receiving the picture atached. I can't go into recovery mode only into downloading mode.
What can i do?
Thanks
Later edit : i found out that my phone is bricked, but even if i can restore it to 2.3.4 i want the new 4.0. How can i do that?
I don't have that version of phone but i supose u can recover the phone on the odin. U can try it
I have successfully unbricked it using odin but what is the latest version of android for the i9001? does anyone know?
We have a sticky for this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1346245
Last version would be 2.3.6 XXKPU or XXKPS, as noted above a sticky!
Thanks unbrick solved, updated to 2.3.6.
Hi Everyone,
Recently, I got a Galaxy S I9000M from a friend. The phone was running 2.1 firmware when I got it. There were two updates for the phone from kies(2.2 & Gingerbread) I updated the phone to 2.2 froyo from kies. later, kies stopped to recognise my phone. so I thought to root my phone and did using rootme 2.2. I don`t know if the phone was rooted but I could see superuser. Then I flashed with some ROM and messed my phone. on booting the phone stuck on blinking on galaxy s logo and will not start. After flashing few more firmware, I am stuck on brick picture on phone. I cannot go to recovery also but I can go to download mode. I am guessing that flashing the stock 2.1 may help to start the device. I have searched everywhere to find the stock 2.1 for i9000M but cannot find because many links are dead and samfirmware.com does not show me the old firmware. By the way, I have downloaded stock 2.3.3 (samsung-updates.com) which I don`t know will work.
Please help me to find the stock firmware or any other way though which I can solve my problem. Tell me which files do I need and how can I flash.
Thanking everyone in anticipation.
Edit: I found stock froyo 2.2 files and phone is working again
