What determines the upgrade information through Kies?

I wonder what determines the upgrade information through Kies?
for example, my phone is from UK orange and locked orignially. The production code is i9000HKDORA. Original firmware: BVJM5/BVJM1/ORAJM3
Does Kies only search the firmware based on the production code only? or need other information together, such as current firmware information?
My current firmware is: XXJF1/XXJF1/XAJF1. I cannot upgrade through Kies although Orange announced the new firmware is available through Kies.
Thanks,

product code = goes to the correct server for Orange
Current firmware code decides upgrade or not .
Both need to orange codes to upgrade .

Well, the upgrade exists for austria/3 now, but I cannot upgrade...
My product code was HKDDBT originally, and even if I change it (nv_data.bin) to the "correct" one - HKDDRE, and have the same firmware version as my dad (who was able to update), it won't let me upgrade...
So, we've called the service center and they said they have no idea, but I can bring in my phone and they'll update it...
So... I guess they do it randomly...

I am not an Orange user and have no Orange firmware .
If you have flashed to unofficial non Orange firmware you need to downgrade the phone via ODIN to Eclair then try to update to latest Orange firmware via KIES firmware update .

Can I update my SGS to Froyo???

Hi guys,
I am new to this forum.
I just bought my New Samsung Galaxy S with Orange UK network which is network locked.
PDA : I9000BVJG2
PHONE : I9000BVJF3
CSC : I9000RAJG2
Firmware:2.1-update1
Build number: ECLAIR.BVJG2
I have unlocked this mobile in INDIA. So, now can I update my SGS to latest version of FROYO?? Some of them said that as I have unlocked my SGS if I update it there is a possibility of locking the phone. Is it true?? If so please suggest me an alternative of how to update my SGS to updated FROYO without locking my SGS.

Phone is Orange UK phone so if Orange UK have an update to Froyo it will update via Kies firmware update .
Locked or unlocked makes no difference the server reads the phones embedded data product code = Orange UK .
jje

Thanks jjE
Can you provide me with the link for orange update to froyo please

Read your instruction manual use Kies softwate to upgrade or go to an Oranfe service centre .

[Q] NEED HELP - Problem to upgrade to FROYO 2.2

Hi,
I'm a brazilian beginner in Android.
I can't update my SGS with KIES, even using the Patcher.
Using the version KIES 1.5.3.10103.102 and Kies Patcher 1.7 , it shows no upgrade to my phone.
I bought it on EUA, it's unlocked.
PDA: JG5
Phone: JG7

Has your network a Froyo update .Network as in the original network provider that the product code is tied to .
jje

Sorry, i thought here was the correct section.
How can i check about you said of network?
Thanks

Ask your network .
jje

JJE,
Even my SGS been UNLOCKED?
Thanks

If you can figure out what the firmware for your region is for Froyo you can update it using Odin even if you particular network provider doesn't have an update available for your particular phone.

Your phone branded = xxx Froyo update via Kies for that brand .
Unlocked is Sim only phones product code remains with original network seller .
Unlocking is only removing restiction to use a network .
If you have Sim for ZZZ on a XXX branded unlocked phone the product code for the phone and firmware is still the original xxxx and will update to that via Kies .
Other methods strictly speaking void your warranty .
Want firmware for the network you are on then Kies Registry patcher and spoof the product code to your new network .
Or via Odin use a generic non branded Samsung firmware to update .

I want to update just with KIES, like a official update. i have some fear about use ODIN.
JJE: I will try differents code on Kies Patcher to see with it recognizes the update. Thank you very much.

JJE:
I tried all codes of BRAZIL but nothing happens.
I have a doubt, my phone is:
PDA: I9000TUBJG5
PHONE: I9000TUBJG7
CSC: I9000TUUBJG4
Should i try the code referring this "TUB" from my phone??
Thanks!!

No other suggestions bar have a look in this Brazil specific post .

[Q] can't update to froyo on my SGS

how can i update to froyo my sgs 2.1 update 1?kies doesn't find any update for the current firmware:i9000xxjpk, the phone is vdf branded and unlocked..

Has your network released an update via Kies is your first question to solve .
jje

I think you should update you sgs to 2.2.1 through Odin
But first of all, make sure you have the 3 combo buttons enabled

when connected to kies it says: this device version cannot be updated,im in Roumania,using an orange SIM, the phone is vodafone branded,then unlocked.
the baseband is i9000XXJPK JM5.

Kies will only update if the phones product code hardware code etc match up with the firmware for that phones product code on the server .
Its the Vodaphone firmware that has not yet been updated by Vodaphone on the server i would guess .
Alternative is to flash an update via Kies but this is at your own risk and may invalidate your warranty and has a small chance of bricking your phone .

You can also have a loo k at the rom kitchin as another choice .

[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 .

jje

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 .
http://www.appbrain.com/app/spooffw/com.johnan.spooffw
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
