[Q] Yesterday Gingerbread Update Available, Today Gone

Yesterday i started KIES and found out that there was an update available but i did not have enough time to update it so i cancelled the procedure. Now today i started KIES again again and it says that i already have the latest firmware. I am using Froyo XXJPY with Seed Mod Kernel K13C and Lag Fix enabled.
Can anyone guide me in this problem?

Seems that firmware was retired 'cause it has some bugs.

User are getting overexcited and Samsung have pulled 2.3 .

Ok. Thanks a lot for your replies. I was thinking that there might be something wrong with my handset. Does this have to do something with Apple lawsuit.
Also kindly let me know which one was the pulled version so that I can flash it through Odin.

I updated over the weekend to 2.3.3 and after an initial problem with the notification bar FC on start up, (fixed it with a cache wipe and data wipe from the three button boot loader menu) everything seems fine.
Was I just lucky or unlucky to get this update.
I'm on O2 UK but I had flashed 2.2.1 from samfirmware.com with odin.

It was a pre-mature push, and I don't think they will going to launch it before lauch of SGS 2, let's wait when they roll it again :-(

The answer is provide that Google had some issues with the update and got it pulled.

Well, if you have any clue how to help, please reply ASAP as I now have no phone.. Damn. :/
That's the risk we take flashing I guess..
Update:
Here's what happened when I tried to flash a JPA single file firmware.
I have already had a similar screen to this twice. First Brown and then Blue. Now this magenta..
Thank you to all of the replies I have gotten so far!
Edit: Problem solved. I tried many different firmwares, eventually, JF7 worked for me? I don't know why, but it just did!
I now have a fully functioning phone! Thanks everyone for your input! God bless!

Could you try another rom? maybe a 2.2.1 rom and if passes you can flash 2.3.3 again, seems have problem with repartition you also can try a single file rom means you should not activate repartition then check what will happen

try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847765
its pretty much same thing and good luck mate
cheers

I agree that you should definitely try something that doesn't require partitioning, since it is the partition that fails according to the log, which then shuts down the whole process.
Of course, even without partitioning, something else may fail...but hey, this is the exciting part, remember? That whole "Turn it on and it just works" thing is SO overrated.

You could try with odin 1.3 I found the newer versions a little buggy.

Looks to me like odin cannot find the required files or they are the wrong files/format .

Post flash issues.

Hey guys, iv scanned the forum for hints and tips with my SGS since i got it a year ago and has always been very helpful, now iv hit a wall. I had the wonderful problem of trying to update the firmware and ended up getting bricked. So after scratching my head for a few hours and lots of huffing i sorted it. Anyway, i worked out how to flash it etc but now the phones gyro thingy wont work and i cant turn it to landscape and its now forever crashing and is now really slow. Help!?
Thanks

Bad flashin? Try re-flashin.

Feel allowed to learn and to try by youself

Try to re-flash same/different firmware with full wipe. That should fix the problem. Had same issues when were trying to downgrade from 2.3.3 to 2.2.1
Good luck.

You guys need a DUHHH smiley, i checked back to the firmware site i originally went to and discovered that i had picked what i think maybe like a universal firmware or something, scrolled back up the list and found the one for my network provider
Foo'
Thanks very much guys

Sorry fella i have no real clue this is my first post and i am a total noob... Still laughing from the video before registering. But heres my totally uninformed first thought, could it be that it needs to have writable sd partition, hopefully someone substantially more informed will help you out soon. I just thought id post because i noticed no one else had and youd only had one view. Lol Ive a bit of an issue myself but im a little afraid to post after the vid, even though iv'e been scouring internet for days with no answers! Lol good luck bud hope it all works out

Have you rooted your phone before flashing? Also, have you tried to do the wipes on the recovery?
Not sure if any of those will fix it for you, but eh, it's better than nothing

Is the romantic on the phone partition or on a external sd card, and have you set the install location to the correct partition

i guess you have not rooted your phone..
and if you did..you are trying to flash a rom through stock recovery?
please search before you know what to do..
we only flash it via cwm recovery, mobile odin or pc odin..
am i correct?

What are you trying to flash, rom type, backup? Need more info.

[Q] Phone Bricked Unfixable

Hi guys I have sad news ;/ I bricked my phone Installing Chainfire 3D and now it won't start up.

LOL I think he means bootloop. But not sure. I think it's impossible to brick a phone with chainfire. I tried it on every ROMs except for the stock and the biggest problem I ever got is the bootloop. Then restored a backup and that's it.
