i have the international I9000 (from israel) and was wondering if the new update thats due to come soon will be international, will all the owners of the galaxy s get it? if so are there any exceptions to this? and on kies i used to have a update section when i had my phone connected but now its gone, anyone knows why?
I'm having the same question regarding SGS-I9003. Anyone?
Eventually when the upgrade is rolled out across the networks .
Its the individual networks that can be slow to upgrade their firmware .
But really only Samsung can answer the question .

thats what im asking
did samsung have some kind of anouncement regarding this?
and about the networks.. i wont be able to get the update from kies anless my provider had the update ready for itself?
did samsung have some kind of anouncement regarding this?

same when i connect my phone stock jpy it used to say this version cant be updated. it now has vanished that only means 1 thing official 2.3.3 is coming within the next 3-4 days
Make sure you have the new version of kies. When you click on your phone in the navigation lane on the left, the first tab that opens shows your current firmware and the newest firmware... for now they are the same. However this is the first kies version I have gotten to work in israel. All previous versions refused to see the phone.
Rumor is that gingerbread will roll out to all international users on the 30th... which may be true or not but the fact that kies does NOT show that our israeli galaxys are unable to be updated gives me hope.
In the meantime if you want a good custom mod based on FROYO check out SimplyGalaxy in the android development area. The dev has posted an addon with israeli cscs (Pelephone, orange and Cellcom).

No one will know anything solid until Samsung makes an announcement (which I doubt they will do) or the update starts appearing in Kies.
No doubt if/when this roll out begins someone will very noisily post a FIRST thread, a few dozen posts will go up telling us the version has been released, lots of people will yell at those posters for making multiple posts, then several threads will start tracking it around the globe and the Modders will start to spit out new ROM versions. Rinse and repeat.
For now, the rumor is still that it will hit on the 30th, so we will see on Wednesday, baruch ha'shem.
Okay thanks for the reply, i guess we just have to wait for it to come and hope the rumors are true

Hello All,
I have one noob question!!.. I have a vodafone galaxy tab (Spain) and I had it unlocked (from simlock). My question is that when the official gingerbread comes out and I update, will I loose the unlock?? (as in the case of iOS devices).
pardon me for my ignorance on android os.
thanks in advanceee
Really!!! Noone here has any idea regarding this!!
I am amazed to see no reply..
Really!!! Noone here has any idea regarding this!!
maybe I need some other forums apart from xda..
I havn't gotten the update yet, however, I'm thinking that if you receive your update on-air from vodafone, then simlock would be reactivated. If you update through kies, there's a good chance that your tab will remain open. Just my opinion. Cheers!
Just to confirm from Italy if kies updated only unlocked tabs and not the ones sold by mobile service providers. Just to know if I should wait for the official release or go the overcome route.

If you flash an official samsung rom it will stay unlocked. I don't know about a vodafone.
For your second question I'll suggest you to flash with the italian rom, that's what I did with my french tab.

I've Have my own with vodafone too (unlocked), And I installed the las overcome ROM with gingerbread... It's amazing...
Looking at kies, it says that our tablet can't be upgraded ^^
thanks orion,
I was just being lazy to carefully follow the instructions to flash it myself (fearing to brick it and then post on the Q&A on a bricked tab!!..).
I will try to read the instructions and do it.. can you point out the exact link (as you get a million hits on the subject with google and it becomes hard to choose the right one)
cheers
You'll have to revert back to stock in order to receive an official OTA update. My tab keeps reminding me to update my software but I'm rooted and can't install it. If I do install...it bricks my tab and I have to start all over again using heimdall. Odin to you...
Tbolt meatclaws-talkatap
i.e.. to sum up.. maybe I shall wait a few days/weeks before going the odin route!!
Hi guys. I from Europe and yesterday via Kies I updated my Galaxy Tab. Strange enough, but I got not Android 2.3, but Android 2.2.1 update. Anyone from Europe with same update (2.2.1)?
You got JMJ, right?

Android 2.3 is only available in Italy at the moment, Its not EU wide.
This has been discussed many many times.
Check your countries official Samsung website, when its available it will be on news page.
Just update it using the Father of Thor if you can't wait dude.

A friend of mine had visited me yesterday to update his tab with kies.
After I saw there was only firmware JMJ in Kies, I told him to update to Stock Kernel 2.3.3.
Now he is so happy....
By the way...
Does the 2.2.1 JMJ Europe Update have a locked bootloader?
You can check it by the app sgt-bootloader patch

Today I read on facebook in group of fanatics Jena about update GT-S6500 to Jelly Bean.
Here is part of the text:
Q: Guys, is there any update from Samsung about when Jelly Bean will be available for SGM2?
A: There are words around That our provider (T-Mobile Croatia) said they'll be getting this month for firmware modifications and it Should be out in January or February. I can not tell how reliable That info is but as Samsung Announced, Poland Should be getting the first one JB.
Could you decipher your post a bit? Did not understand a word.
I guess that, along the way, what you meant to say and what you wrote got lost in the translation.

Exactly...
I m from poland and later i wil try conect to kies if its jb then shold work im on stock rom i will let you now or somone try ?
AFAIK after they release update, we will still have to wait few weeks for Samsung to release sources.. (kernel etc..)
Atleast this is how HTC is doing it.
Officially reach our GT-S6500 update and it counts most I'm glad about that. Samsung strengthens the market in this way, and Galaxy 2 is still in demand by Android users
