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 .

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.

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

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.
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
CSC: JG4
Frmware version: 2.1 update 1
kernel version: 2.6.29 latin.umtsAsamsung#2

Does someone could help me? What could be happening?
I really want to upgrade to FROYO via KIES.
Thanks in advance

Please post a question in the correct section.Q&A

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

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 .

Thanks
samsung has set the realease date for these firmwares in different countries and at different times!! sooo all u can do is wait or u can book a ticket to florida and upgrade it there.thats where i upgraded my galaxy s
happy days
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 .

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 .

Hi,
I have had different Custom Roms on my Samsung Galaxy s i9000!!
Now I have the ultimate rom on it but I want to go back to the samsung Stock rom, because I want to sell my phone!!!
But how can I get back to my Stock????
I dont have any backup!!!
Any idea or help?
Thanks
no need any backup, if you remember the build number of the rom then you can download it at samfirmware.com all SGS roms are there for download
or just tell me the build number and will give you the link
sample for build number : DXJG4 or XXJPM or ....
I don`t remeber the build number...I just know that it was andorid 2.2.1!!
Do you have any instruction how I get the stock installed on my phone? Is it the the same way like wit the custom roms or an other?
these are not custom roms they are stock rom, you can flash them by Odin go to samfirmware.com and choose your rom base on the area you live (there is a guide for decoding the build number for the locale and language) you can find tutorial for odin in xda forum
Any hint which Firmeware I should take?
2.2.1?
2.3.3?
2.3.3 is Beta .
jje
When I have the stock rom back on my phone, can I use Kies again or do I have to unroot it?
Kies will probably be unable to match the stock rom with network providers firmware . In which case you need to spoof the firmware update .
http://www.appbrain.com/app/spooffw/com.johnan.spooffw
Kies upgrades firmware from product code firmware id and hardware ID
EG PC xxxxx O2UK Firmware xxxx O2UK Hardware XXX O2UK
Your firmware will code will not match .
