[Q] No Froyo for 02 customers in Rep. of Ireland

Deeply envious of you lucky people out there with Froyo.
As the title of this posts indicates I'm looking to more knowledgable heads than my self for advice.
Those of us using the Galaxy S on 02 in Ireland are being jerked around by the company with all kinds of unbelievable excuses as to why they won't release the Froyo upgrade ( you should see the anger and frustration on the 02 customer forum from users!).
My phone details are:
Firmware v. 2.1-update 1
Baseband v. I9000xxjf3
Kernel v. 2.6.29
Eclair
I'm currently rooted using 2.1 but need the 2.2 upgrade urgently: can any kind soul tell me is there a working firmware upgrade that I can install that would allow my phone to operate in Ireland ie. one that doesn't rely on the official KIES route?
If I can get this working I can then pass the info onto the other pour souls being lied to on the 02 customer forum.
Thanks people.

Have you even looked on the developers section? Theres a ton of ways to get froyo.

There are many threads on here covering this subject, search for "registry Hack".
All this does is to make Keis think that your phone is a generic european phone and you will get the Froyo update.
Best of luck.

Kies Registry Patcher 1.7.0.0, patch registry on latest Kies
You could use that and flash to the O2 UK Froyo if you liked!

Thanks chaps.
Hadn't seen Ireland specific info on other threads so needed to double-check flashing with uk\european version was ok.
Appreciate your advice.

Milestone region and update news?

Hi:
I bought my Milestone in India around August 2010.
I wanted to know when the 2.2 update will roll out for my device - I checked the Motorola Android Software Upgrade News page but couldn't find a Milestone for India in the list (guessing it's APAC then.. is it?).
Here are my device's details:
Firmware version: 2.1 update1
Firmware configuration version: GAS_EMEA_USASHLS00RTINT_P016
Baseband version: 3GSMEPU91A_U_91.07.56I
Kernel version: 2.6.29-omap1
Build number: SHOLS_U2_02.36.0
How can I find out which region my device belongs to, and how these details decide when the 2.2 build will roll out?
I would also appreciate it if someone could tell me how to find this out from the above details.
Thanks & regards!

Regarding OTA upgrade to 2.2, it will release in EU first. You can always update it manually.

you should post it in right place (Motorola Droid and Milestone General)

Thanks Silesh!
Do you suggest waiting for the OTA? What is your opinion on rooting & flashing custom ROMs to bring it to 2.2?

@sharljimhtsin Sorry, my bad

You can safely root and upgrade to a variety of custom 2.2 ROMS available. There are a few of them available like CM6, Cronos, Miui etc. I am running cronos ATM. You can get your stone back to stock anytime. Its very easy.
Though you will not get battery life as in 2.1, you will get a lot of other cool features with 2.2.
Knowing Motorola, we would be lucky if we get the froyo update in during this qtr.

Middle East & Europe supose to get thier updates by Q4 2010>
on Xmas, I read on GSMArena, that Motorola made another delay to Q1 2011.
Meaning by the end of Q4, mostly we'll have Gingerbread with the efforts of xds, GOT, Doshaka & CM.
Do not wait for it my friend, get it from here its save & awsome.

[Q] how to upgrade to andriod 2.2 without using att network?

Hi,
I bought Samsung Captivate in US and now use it in India. I would like to upgrade to android 2.2 official version but am not sure how to do it without using att network.
Would appreciate your help if you can point me to any existing thread or any instructions on how to upgrade.
Thanks,
Vijay

Didn't think there was an "Official" OTA from AT&T. I know Rogers received an update but not AT&T.
If there is you would be able to get it in the Dev forum as I'm sure someone would have created an Odin 1-Click for it.

If you're that anxious to add Froyo, your best bet is to use a port of the Rogers release. I think the latest Cognition has it. Otherwise wait a little longer to see if ATT does release an update and someone will surely create a ROM that you can flash.

Thanks for your response and help. Surprised to know that att has still not launched the froyo version since its' available by Samsung directly.
I am new to this forum and the whole installing custom roms process so appreciate the links.

Flashing UK stock ROM on a French Tab 8.9 - possible??

Hi all, posting this on behalf of a mate.
I will quote what he has asked me and if any of you clever lot can answer this I and he would be most grateful.
I bought a Galaxy tab 8.9 from expansys a few months ago & they sent the French version. Firmware & lots of aps were French but most of it was crap anyway.
I've been waiting for the ics firmware update but I'm wondering if it'll just update the file to a French one? Any ideas?
Even better I think there's a jellybean rom for the 7310 which is probably better but I haven't got a clue how to flash it?

It's a P7310 running android 3.2
Any and all help appreciated on this one folks
Cheers in advance.

All the answer is in development section

got the exact same model from expansys with the french rom. updated it to the uk rom no probs n then took the plunge and installed the us version of ics and again it worked no problem so in short flash away

Upgrade to ICS
Thanks to suwandiapr & nirogu325, I could not thank them in development section due to less than 10 posts.
I have upgraded to ICS 4.0.4 of USA (Stock) from HC 3.2 of Switzerland (AUT). I have read about screen issues affecting the people who have upgraded to ICS from HC, especially tab with firmware region of AUT (Switzerland). So I flashed to USA Version of HC 3.2 and then Kies automatcially upgraded to ICS 4.0.4. I am really happy and no problem with screen.:victory:
