[Q] What is the latest fireware for GT I9000?

Hi, what is the latest firmware for GT-I9000 now ? because when I connect my phone with Kies ( Kies version I am using is 1.5.3.10093_82 ), it says
my current version: PDA:JF4 / PHONE:JF4 / CSC:OLB
This device's version cannot be updated.
So this is the newest firmware for now ? since i am new with Smartphone.
Thanks

I am getting the same error. I am from Malaysia where are you from? have you root your phone?

Latest firmware for Malaysia yet to come out.
The Latest for Asian is from Hong Kong(I9000ZSJPD), if you want update using kies, you need perform registry hack make your kies think that you are from Hong Kong(I suppose). However, i cant get HIDSWVER from Hong Kong so not able to update thru Kies too.
I read some thread said lagfix need to remove so that kies able to update it.

I think the latest firmware for Malaysia is I9000DXJPA. This is Froyo 2.2. You need to download the latest Kies version in order to see it in the update option.
I have been using this original firmware for sometime and it is great. It really makes me wonder again, what's with all the lag-fix when there is not lag issue.

What about Europe. What's latest official firmware. My device has i9000xxjm1 and kies says it's latest one :/

How to update

Hello
Im also having Galaxy S with PDA:JF4 / PHONE:JF4 / CSC:OLB (DBT)
Im also still on Eclair and cannot update to Froyo
Were u able to update ?

Custom ROM
Why dont you flash Custom ROM.... everyone is on 2.3.4 now a days...

[Q] Kies Update only in region of GT?

Let me get this straight- Kies can only update Galaxy Tab Firmware if it matches the region of the previous firmware with the region where you are at present?
-I mean if I bought my GT in Hongkong and bring it to Dubai I have to go to hongkong to use Kies to update?

i believe it checks your tab's current configuration of the firmware via PDA PHONE CSC versions. if it matches a configuration found on the server it checks this if its the latest firmware for that said configuration if not you will be prompted with an update notice. if your configuration cannot be found on the server you would get a notice "tab version cannot be upgraded" or something along those lines. i think this is regardless of geographical location.

Does it mean that there is a record in Samsung server of the fw that is associated with my GT when it left the factory?

i don't think so. it just checks for the proper firmware configuration.

If so then how come Kies states that the stock Italian GB cannot be updated? It should instead state that it is the latest......
In another post you stated that the DX firmware you installed was recognized by Kies as the latest firmware.I am assuming you are in the Philippines. If I flash this fw on my tab will it still be recognized by Kies as latest even if I am in the Middle East?

stumped me there.
way back when i tried taiwan rom P1000ZTKC1, kies was able to detect it as official though...

But AFAIK, Taiwan is in the far east so in the same region.
Ahh well, weekend for us here, I might try out to flash the DX firmware later. Thanks for patiently answering.
I do not like to flash/update to the Arabic fw though-I don't read arabic and also not a Muslim so I don't need the Quran , Qibla direction and the prayer times.
BTW, what is the difference between the DX and the Italian GB?

mostly just the localizations/languages available out of the box.

I tried the dx fw and was able to boot successfuly.noticed the extra icon on the home screen-I think it was readrs hub cant recall now. But when I issued *#1234# i only got.the phone part.pda and csc were blank. Of course kies will not see the fw if blanks so I reflashed with the same result-BLANK PDA ,CSC.
At this point I made a decision to give my tab abreak and reflashed to the latest Arabic fw JM5. The process was succesful and Kies saw the fw as the latest. This reinforced my suspicion either the tab is registered with samsung to have arabic fw when it left factory OR that Kies will only update if the tab is within the region.
No rom flashing for me for now. Thanks for replies.

try flashing to xxpq1 first then to dxjpc...
i was having that error with *#1234# when i manually updated through odin

Yes I thought of the csc file you gave me. There is another issue, when I rooted using CF ROOT my dx fw and rebooted the sound which plays about same time as the samsung logo plays about few seconds AFTER the samsung logo disappears. So there was an issue I cant see. This happened also the second time I flashed.
I will wait for the official JM5 update thru Kies and rest my tab for the moment from the stress of flashing.

To put this at rest. It happens via CSC. Sammy doesnt care where you are located. CSC is Country Specific Code. Kies checks phone pda and csc to check the device has an official untouched firmwarr. Then checks the server against the CSC for instance if its ITV italy. It will find the GB update and roll it out.

Then how come when I flashed italian gb fw with itv or xeu csc kies says that it cannot be upgraded? Maybe I the stock fw from xda is not official?
Then the froyo I got from samfirmware happens to be official?
Samfirmware also does not guarantee kies will recognize the fw they provide.

Simple. Sammy pulled out the italian firmware I know what I am talking about. My tab updated numerous times from jj4 to jk5 to jmg with DBT CSC since i got the tab from germany.

Ah ok. Thanks for the explaination. Now only the Asian dx gb fw is official, according to noxxious info.

Available in Singapore according to this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14532927&postcount=32
That is just next to malaysia.

I can now conclude that region where I am in now does not affect Kies. I have since updated my tab to the latest Asian GB even if I am in the Middle East!

[Q] Revert back to Stock to connect and update with Kies?

I am thick as ....so please help.
My UK SGT is:
PDA; P1000xxjq1
Phone: P1000xxjpz
CSC: P1000oxajq1
Brought from CPW -
When I connect to Kies it shows 'this device cannot be updated'
Please in plain, simple, english what do I need to do to rectify this and be able to update through Kies?
I have tried connnecting to Odin 1.7 which is com8 and yellow.
My thought is to go back to stock and leave the hell alone! Unless you advise me otherwise.
Many thanks as always
EDIT: Oh what fun we had......Now I have completely ....... I have flashed JMK stock safe that I saved when I first upgraded to 2.3.3, now I have
PDA: P1000XWJMK
PHONE: P1000XXJPZ
CSC: P1000PHNJM5
As I said I am stupid so please save me before I break it?
X
Edit 2: Ok back to Version 1>
PDA; P1000xxjq1
Phone: P1000xxjpz
CSC: P1000oxajq1
what a waste of a few hours, still no stock.....
Edit 3: Got Kies to recognise and update the SGT yeah!
Damn it, now I still have 2.2
PDA: P1000WJMK
PHONE: P1000XXJMA
CSC: P1000PHNJM5
WTF is going on, can someone PLEASE lend me a hand?

Two things here:
1. Your sales code should match the PDA/PHONE/CSC for kies to 'see' ifcthere is an update.
2. As of this writing there is no gingerbread update for the UK.

I think you have an Asian stock firmware there. PHN is Philippines, I think. So Kies thinks you have a Philippines SGT.
I flashed JJ4 from samfirmware.com, which is a Russian firmware.
I think, from what I've read, that stock Gingerbread is available in UK (sorry to contradict Bongski). Unfortunately I didn't save my firmware before flashing away from stock, so I'm in the same boat as you - no Kies updates.
What you need is someone to provide an official CPW firmware, I think, which you would flash with Odin and then Kies should update you. I tried using SpoofFW from the market, but Kies only got to 25% before failing, then I had to go back to Odin and the JJ4 firmware.
If you're comfortable with Odin, you might want to try that?
If you do get the CPW firmware, please let me know...!

@treb1971
CSC PHN doesn't stand for Philippines. Philippine CSC's are as the following:
GLB - Philippines;Globe
SMA - Philippines;Smart
XTC - Philippines;Multiple
XTE - Philippines;SUN

My bad - apologies...

If you do get the CPW firmware, please let me know...!
Anyone got this and can help?
'I tried using SpoofFW from the market, but Kies only got to 25% before failing, then I had to go back to Odin and the JJ4 firmware.'
I have read 45 pages of SpoofFW and its way over my head!
Thanks in advance

Unable to upgrade firmware via Kies after flashing to stock rom

Hi,
I flashed my SGS to CM7 and don't really like it. I have downloaded the firmware ( I9000DXJF4 )from sammobile and flashed it. However, I am unable to upgrade the firmware using Kies to the new firmware available thru Samsung.
My current version is as followed
PDA: I9000DXJF4
PHONE: I9000DXJF4
CSC: I9000OLBJF4
From the look of my phone, everything seem to be back to its original setting, with all the singtel (my telco provider ) apps. Now I am trying to upgrade to Froyo 2.2 (I think) using Kies. Kies prompted that it is unable to update the firmware. I tried the latest version of kies and also version 1.5. Both are unable to do so.
Anyone can kindly advise?

Try changing your CSC code to XEU. I encountered some issues with KIES updates when having CSC code KOR.

Hi,
I tried to change to XUE but this option is not available. I go into CSC by *#272*HHMM#. Is it wrong?

*#272*???????????????# (??????????????? it's your IMEI, it must have 15 digits)
or try https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nfye.insanity.toolbox

Hi,
Thanks for your help. I got my IMEI code. It pop up in a small window. Then I tried to change the CSC using the method u mentioned. But nothing happen. When I press the call button, it say "USSD code running..." then follow by "UNKNOWN APPLICATION"
I also tried to install the software, but it is only for android 2.2 and above. I tried to find the crack version for the premium version but cant find any. Do you have the premium version? Can upload to mediafire and send me the link?

Never try to install via KIES ..
Install via ODIN the Firmware you want it's simply better, even if ODIN is unofficial.
Introductions you will find by googleing I think .. it's easy.
Good luck and have fun

Hi,
Ya, using Odin now. But still prefer Kies over Odin. A lot of stuff become automatic with Kies.
I just flash to DXJG4 hoping to be able to link to kies but it failed.
I read that once the lagfix is fixed, there will be problem with kies. Am I fixing the lagfix in anyway thus leading to this problem?

Did you get solution to your problem? I had the same problem with a Galaxy Wonder... when i tried to upgrade via kies i got this screen..
That I cannot post actually because the forum prevents me from doing it...
BUT...
I tried OTA upgrade with perfect results... And the funny thing is that I NEVER before could start OTA...
BTW everything's fine now and I bumped to 2.3.6 ggbrd

You can download all the recent firmware from sammobile and you can flash it via odin. Flashing stock ROM via Odin

You need to be on stock rom for kies to work, just download the stock rom you want to download through kies and use odin

kids says device software not supported for update
Hi all,
I don't think this is hijacking...seems similar problem.
I flashed to ICS before it was released, now want to update to official version via kies...so I flashed to this with odin (downloaded from samfirmware.com)
PDA: i9100BOKK1
PHONE: i9100BOKJ1
CSC: i9100TMUKK1
But when I connect to kies it still says the 'device software does not support updating via kies'. I've tried flashing lots of other gingerbread firmwares from samfirmwares.com (need gingerbread so kies detects it needs updating). Really stuck now. How do i find which original stock firmware to flash to get dues to update? Tried the list on xda but still cqn't get it to allow an update. Is there something else that can cause kies to give that error, or is it definitely that I've got the wrong stock firmware? If so, is there a sure fire way to get the right one? I've tried the xda branded firmware list, that's where I got the link for this firmware above. Please help!

Wrong IMEI --> no Update
Check your IMEI (*#06#). Do you have your original number or is it changed to 004999010440000?
When I didn't succeed with OTA/Kies-Updates I found that the "developer IMEI" was the reason.
