hey guys today I got some new firmware update, so I updated (70mbish), and after reboot it tells me there's another firmware update (15mbish) so I tried to update that too, but it keeps failing. so maybe I thought I should do it via kies air, but wasn't sure how to do it at all. Thanks and please let me know.
And firmware uptdate isn't possible per Kies Air yet.
you've got two possibilitys:
1. OTA (Over the Air) in Settings -> Info -> Software-update, but cause of the fail, see second.
2. connect ur phone with a pc, wehe Kies is installed. then select firmware-update, and let kies do it for u.
I hope i could help u and sorry for my bad english.
Schnizel.

Hi.
My first thread here, thanks for all the work you folks putting in making our Galaxy a greate phone. Hope I dont start a thread that are already existing.
Yesterday I falshed my phone with the I9000XWJM2 firmware and experiensed something strange in Kies afterwards.
It told me that there was new firmware I could choose to install!! I havent experienced that before.
Is this a way to get back to the original firmware? I know from the FAQ that there are no way to do it, but what happens if I get KIES to install firmware?
Best regards,
Jens
hey jens are you sure kies offers you firmware ? or just update for KIES i mean update Kies destop software ?
It only shows up after I installed I9000XWJM2 and before SAMSET 1.8, as far as I have seen so far. Will try again tonight when im back from work.
I can see that other people in here is talking about new KIES version. I will check tonight whatever its firmware or KIES that it want to update.

Hey guys,
Is there a way to download the official firmware update outside Kies but perform the upgrade from within it?
The problem is I have a crappy internet connection and everytime I try to upgrade via Kies, a little time after Kies starts to download the upgrade, the download stops and I get the "No response from server" error.
Maybe there's a way to change the timeout value, so Kies keeps trying instead of dropping the download?
Thanks.
Use odin like everyone else. Check on Dev thread, no use uses kies

Thanks ickyboo. Already downloading fw to flash through Odin.
Guys, quick question. Every time I switch my laptop on, Kies says there is a firmware upgrade.
So, I switch from ADW Launcher to the stock Samsung Home, fire up MTP, and sync up.
Then Kies does nothing. The firmware I have is JMI / JMA / JM4 (SER).
Is there something I need to do?
Thanks.
It tells you there is a firmware upgrade before you have connected device
Are you sure its not telling you their is a kies update instead?
Try uninstalling kies and ten installing latest version from samsung site, see what happens.
Do we know how/when Kies checks for updated firmware? Is there a way of making it check (there's a "Check for updates" option in the Help menu, but that seems to just talk about updates for Kies itself)?
I think it checks when you connect the device and kies recognizes it..
as it shows in the general tab after some time if any update is available!!
I wanted to update my phone from Froyo to Gingerbread, and so I downloaded kies. At first it wouldn't even connect to my device, but then after doing a factory reset, I got a bit further, and now I'm stuck. I'd like to do a simple update of the firmware, and I dont understand why it can't be straight forward ?
Can anybody tell me what I need to do to fix this problem please ?
Same problem and can't find a fix too Do anyone knows anything, please?
1.is the original(stock) firmware intalled on your device?
2.check your pc :control panel -> Regional and language option->set it to your location
simple...
Follow this tutorial, I did it to. Make sure you follow all steps even the CSC change what he does at the end.

your device does not support software upgrading via kies
Hi
I am in Australia and checked on my computer all the settings were right to what the post is about the control panel ect and they were already right so what now??
Hi guys.
I am unable to update my Galaxy Note by any means. Kies says that my device does not support software upgrading via Kies. When I tried OTA, I get a message saying Failed to update firmware.
This is not the ICS upgrade. This is a 72.29 MB upgrade rolled out months back. I have tried everything with Kies. It refuses to budge.
I have browsed several threads but none provided me with a working solution. I read that sometimes the firmware is flashed when you give the phone for repairing. I DID give my phone at the service centre once and was handed back a completely fresh install of the software.
I am very noob-y in matters related to kernels and CSC and odin. A detailed answer would be really helpful. Your patience and effort is appreciated.
Please help guys. Thanks!
You can update to the latest version of ICS for India using the PC Odin. Thats the fastest way of upgrading. Follow the instruction that Dr Ketan has for upgrading to the Indian Rom of ICS.
hope this helps.
download the stock ics from samfirmwares.com
download pc odin
enable usb debugging
unknown sources
open pc odin
just open pda and browse to the tar file and do not change any other options and flash

download indian ics and use pc odin to update..
see this Dr. Ketan's link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667018
will wait for OTA update.. waited for such a longtime already!!
Karthikdoc - U dont have to wait for OTA update. It is already there.. Just keep refreshing .. I did a OTA update of Note to ICS almost a week ago .. and some even more earlier.
Profest - It would be good if you can go into
Settings --> About Phone
and provide us the Android version
Baseband version
Kernal version
Just want to make sure the samsung guys gave you a right flash and also to guide you in the right direction ..
Maybe factory reset will help.....
Afterall you will have to do it before upgrading to ICS.
