[Q] [i9000b] Update Android ! - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, I don't know anything about cellphones and i would like to know how do i update my Galaxy S GT-I9000B because i'm using android 2.1 and i want any new version but i can't find how to update it. HELP ME ! :crying:​

Hey
First you will have to root your device then flash a custom recovery..(Google it or check the XDA forum for your device)
After that you can flash custom ROMs like cm etc..
They are using latest android firmware..

You could connect your device to your computer and install KIES. I don't think OTA updates are still working.

This is offical avilable update.
I installed JP8, then Jp6, and then after that I installed the new version of Kies, I found the new version of JPA, original Samsung.
No Questions allowed in the Development section.
also, please use the search. this forum is overcrowded, mod desperately needed.

You'll have to wait until T-Mobile firmware is available to upgrade.

If your new firmware is Stock firmware(released by samsung), you can flash with Odin(dont select reset partition in odin)
OR you can connect to Kies n update it.
OR Go to setting - about phone - software update, check if update available OTA, if available, you will get notice n update from there(easiest n fastest way)
Hello.
One week ago,I was forced to flash custom ROM,cause something goes wrong and I didn't have backup. However,I want back the stock ROM. Where can I download it? I don't want to install Kies to my laptop,because normally I don't need it. I am able to flash the ROM using CWM.

Check in samfirmware.com for the latest version of your rom.
You can download that and flash it via odin to upgrade. Do not wipe while on stock ics kernel.
If you are on unrooted stock rom check for software update in about device in setting.

Depends on your current firmware.
But as stated above, you can choose to flash a rom through odin/cwm.
Otherwise you can only wait... and wait.... and..............wait
Important: DON'T WIPE if you're still on stock ICS kernel.
Yes just keep waiting, youll receive 4.0.4 soon enough

Rooted galaxy n7000

Hi guys please help. My n7000 is rooted and the ics 4.0.4 version is a rooted rom one. My software update button is missing. Have downloaded kies but its showing no updates. My question is that can i access kies and official samsung updates through this even though im rooted. Dont really want unroot for fear of bricking my device. Bit of a novice in this area. Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you so much. Not even samsung could tell me that.

It wan't send u any notification cause you'r rooted and u have -#su shell active so nothing official untill u flash stock ICS kernel and wait for update.
So you are saying that while rooted i will jpt get any official samsung updates? If i want official updates i must unroot is tuat correct? Or can i still update through kies. Getting confused now. Please help.

for the pass rooted phone still able to update via kies.
now not sure !still waiting for official 4.1.2 then will know the result.
Ok thanks. I guess its a waiting game as i heard n7000 get the 4.2.1 update sometime march.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
even though the phone is rooted or even a custom kernel is installed, kies detects the firmware and check if there is an update or not.. so it will let us know.. nothing to do with su shell and all.
kies will let you update as well.. but OTA wont work on rooted and custom recovery installed devices.
Ok great thanks. I shall have to wait which is something im not good at.

3 days ago I flashed ICS 4.0.3, rooted it with Philz kernel and attacked it to PC, opened keis, keis not only detected my phone, but also asked if I want to install new updates I accepted the offer, keis then upgraded my ROM to ICS 4.0.4, but I lost root. Super Su was there but Philz CWMR was replaced by stock recovery and Titanium backup told me to get out as my phone was not rooted. So I flashed Philz Rooted kernel again and got root access once again.
So, Yes keis will ask you to update firmware if one is there, but you "may" lose root.
Thank you that is very useful info. I'm already on 4.0.4 so will await the next update. Been informed that note n7000 users will get 4.2.1 sometime in March.

Hi another daft question. Phone was rooted when bought. I have installed rom tool manager from market and am using to alter my status bar. I have installed the ones I want and now assume I have to flash them to get them to take effect. When I go to do this its asking me what name my recovery mode is. How do I find this out. Thanks in advance.
