I'm using DocRom 2.2 now and I want to update to stock 2.3, but Kies wont let me do it.
It basically says that the current version cannot be updated.
Do I have to flash a stock rom first and then update through Kies?
If so, where do I get a stock rom (swedish)?
if have a js8 room, you can update 2.3.3 jvh rom.
pls remove your kies program from pc. and visit samsung official website... download update version of it... install it on pc... restart your pc... and connect phone to kies with origianl samsung original usb cabl. and write us that what do your kies says? your rom is very old... you can update 2.3.3 step by step 2.2.1 to 2.3.3
Try this procedure : Galaxy S Android 2.3 update using Kies

flash the JH2 rom linked in that thread using odin, you can then upgrade to the latest stock rom using kies or whatever other method you want.
Let's say I installed Ultimate ROM v8.2 on my SGS. Can I still upgrade to the official Gingerbread once Samsung released it thru Kies?
Most likely not. Kies will check to see if you have the stock rom, modem and CSC for your provider (not kernel, however)...if not, it will say you can't be upgraded.
Therefore, revert to stock once you KNOW the update is available, or take a nandroid backup of your stock rom before flashing Ultimate.
Or forget Kies and just download a stock 2.3.3 rom from XDA, flash it, then install one of the rising crop of Gingerbread ROMs available here.
Thanks for the prompt response rschenck.
Cant update your through kies but it will be released on samfirmware.com so you will be able to flash via odin
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
You need to use the spoof Kies thread method if that still works .
If you have backed up your original firmware you can reinstall that .
Or just wait for a full working 2.3 with all the add on in rom kitchin and flash that .

after flash my SGS i9000 from 2.3.3 XWJVH to 2.3.3 DXJV9, i go to samsung kies and it shows that
"This version of the device cannot be updated"
Current firmware version : PDA:JV9/PHONE:JV9/CSC:JV9(KOR)
btw im from malaysia, i just don't know why my firmware version is not (XME) does this means that it cannot be updated? plz help me>< im confused
Thanks in advance><
Of course it cannot be updated with kies because there is no update for JV9. Also, Samsung hasn't officially released 2.3.4, so there are no 2.3.4 kies updates. Just use odin and flash whatever you want
oic , i tot i had mess up with my phone firmware>< thank you
I'm currently on CM7/MIUI and wanna go back to root waiting for CM7 more mature.
I wanna a stock and samsung supported ROM (not leaked), and can receive OTA as welll
Can I just use Kies or I have to download a ROM and flash using Odin.
I would go back to a stock gingerbread rom(must have bootloaders as CM7 uses froyo bootloaders) or go to gingerbread ezbase. From there you could use the Kies registry patch to spoof it into updating your phone to the latest for your region.
I can't find any guide to spoof Kies, some say it does not work with Kies 2.0
Stockrom for here:
http://samfirmware.com/
Click: Toolbox -> Firmware -> FW Android
Then root it again using Speedmod or similar:
This is not really solved because what I want is the ability to update via Kies, but I gave up and just do the upgrade myself . Thanks for you comment
Hi all, i need someone to answer my questions below
my Galaxy Tab GT P1000 is now still running in Android 2.2 Froyo Rooted with superoneclick.
can i just update the firmware to 2.3 gingerbread through official samsung kies program on pc ?
Or i have to unroot my galaxy tab to update to official ginger bread 2.3 update ?
And just to let you know that i just deleted mine preinstalled swype and installed new swype beta.not sure if it's safe to install an official update.
Before i rooted my tab the samsung kies program found a new firmware update for my tab which has some long code and jpi something i can't remember it correctly,not really sure if it is gingerbread update
I just notice that when i open more than 2 apps some apps automatically closes itself.does anyone know what is causing it ?
Samsung kies kinda sucks since the usb connection kept disconnecting it's kinda hard to backup stuff.not to mention backup some small files takes ages too.
U can update via official samsung kies program on pc directly.
If kies find you already root or ROM broken, it will help you to flash a new official rom, just follow kies.
