Please keep questions in the Q&A section.
As for your issue, you can odin the new firmware i think, or you can adb sideload it.

You need to download manually the firmware file and saved it on your ext SD card.
Reboot into recovery and select Install from SD Card.
Select the just downloaded file wait and your done.
Glad i helped, theres already a post with the correct links to download 5.0.

Hy there
I just bought a Samsung Galaxy s Model GT-I9000, Baseband I9000xxjm1, Kernel version 2.6.29, Build Eclair.xwjm2
I read a lot of things here and i would like to make my phone to work better.
I would need some help with the 3 button recovery mode, because i cannot put the phone in recovery; i would like to explain me somebody how to fix the lag thing and if possible to put the 2.2 update on it
10x
By the way, i read a lot of posts, i looked it up on the internet how to do stuff and i didn't get it...with all the explenations and the tricks and tips, and very much videos on you tube, now i'm confuse and all the info in my head is jumbled up
So please, who will help me to be prepared to be asked a lot of questions
Upgrading through Kies might be the easiest and fastest way to get Froyo. Install keys and plug in your phone and check for updates, if it doesn't show Froyo as an option (build JP6, JPM, or JPA) then check the how-to threads of how to apply the registry hack to get Kies to upgrade you to Froyo. That's the easiest because then you don't have to worry about recovery (yet) and the newer build will probably include a fix for recovery anyway.
ok , what is Kies?

I just used Keis and says that "this phone cannot be upgraded" or something , so what now???
Hey have you read this sticky yet?? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=810682
The instructions there are pretty str8 forward and please DO NOT post this type of questions here. There is a question forum for a reason!
Dude U should you the search function, anyway there is no rush to go flash froyo on your SGS right away.
You should try to familiarize yourself to the phone first.

Hy guys , sorry if there was another post like this , but i did not have the time to read all the posts . Until a few month ago , i had a friend that helped me to upgrade my firmware and now i can't ask him no more to help me out .
I have a 2.2 fw version , but i don't know exact what version it is , it is with froyo_doc_v7.6.2_jpa.xwjpa . That what it says in "about phone" . I would really like to upgrade my firmware because i am sure that a new one is up , and i can't do that in Samsung Keys because the present one is a custom one .
So , from the bottom of my heart i ask : Can you help me by explaining step by step what to do to upgrade to a new firmware that could be much better ?like ... stability and performance ? And not mess up my phone?
Thank you very much .
P.S. : Sorry for my bad english
doc's roms are very good and stable,
head over to www.romkitchen.org and make one there yourself (easy peasy)
considering you are on custom ROM i assume you will have 2e / CWM recovery, to boot into this you need to power off the phone, Hold volume up + Home button + power button all at the same time.
anyway download your ROM from the above link, place in on the root of your sd card, and boot into recovery, go to apply update from sd card > choose update from sd card > 'Your ROM name here' then select that and select YES,
your phone will do the rest
Ok , but how do i know which one is the newest from the list that it is provided to me over there? How do i know which one is the best? Is there a android 2.3 or something? or .. 2.4?

I really think you need to read at least the stickies and the FAQs before you go much further...if you can't work out that v11 is probably newer than v9, and are looking around for android 2.4, please educate yourself before you ask someone to hold your hand and walk you step by step through bricking your phone.
The order is supposed to be search, then read, then ask...not just ask because you can't be bothered to read anything.

ok there are standard released firmwares available from samfirmware.com
as long as you can put your phone in download mode (Reboot holding the power, down volume and middle buttons at the same time) you should be able to use these with a program called odin3 (you want version 1.7).
These are all official stock firmware releases or early leaks of of new samsung firmware.
I do not believe there is an official release of a 2.3 firmware yet but there are some leaks and the SGS II is being released this coming week so I would guess official firmwares are either imminent or might even be available (they were then they werent again so I dont know for sure)
Stock firmwares are simple to install with odin as long as the custom rom you are does no have features like lag fixing enabled.
all you do is connect up your phone in the download mode mentioned above select the full firmware file by pressing the pda button and nabvigating to the file you got from samfirmware.com. make sure this is the only file checked. (no pit, no modem, no csc etc) make sure the only boxes checked are auto reboot and f:reset time
push start and wait about 5 minutes later you'll have a stock device.
if this goes wrong in anyway or you have lag fix or other stuff and you want to reset this first, download darkyy's ressurection rom do everything exactly the same as above only also select the pit file that comes with darkyys and also select repartition. get that working and then flash the stock rom as desicribed above.
I have had no issues when I have followed this procedure all my issues start when I deviate from this.
@ rschenck thank's but you have to understand that some of us work from early in the morning to the night , and i don't have the time to stay and read all the sticky posts and all the posts.
@ curioct : Thank you very much for the info . I will try to folow the steps .
But .. i don't know if i have lag fix . I think i do , and if i do omg , i have to instal darky's rom , and after that what?

You have a custom rom undo any lagfix build a rom in rom kitchen and flash it .

Open up Kies, and hook your phone up to the PC. See if Kies will recognise your phone. If it does, format your internal sd card. Then disconnect the phone, drop the battery, put it back in and see if it will boot.

I'm not sure of both what version of your fw is and how are you getting the update. Is it thru wifi/3G, or is it thru kies? But I'm guessing is thru wifi/3G (its called OTA update, OTA stands for Over The Air). go to settings>about phone>software update , and uncheck auto-update.

what is youre curent version? drf1?
The problem is when I go to stock recovery I get message like this:
Dm - verify verification failed
Check your DRK first..
I must solve this to be eneble to install update..
I dont know how..
Greetings, I'm new to this forum but I've followed it for a long time in the great HTC days of installing windows on their phones. I live in France (nobody is perfect )
On from the introduction, my girlfriend and one of her friend have batteries problem with their note4 since a couple of weeks now: the phone "dies" at 34% or so reported remaining battery power. It refuses to start again unless plugged, the first days the charging animation even reported 34 remaining power but now it starts at 0%. And though I've ordered a new battery, her friend did the replacement before us and it didn't fix her problem, so I guess battery replacement won't fix mine.
So if it's not the battery, it may be the software (it may be a hardware problem on the board but I don't think it suddenly stroke two note 4) So my question is, how do we know if this upgrade is currently installed ? Is it the "build number" N910FXXU1DRF1 and/or baseband version N910FXXS1DQA1 or something else ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

This means you've disabled encryption on the boot partition.
You'll have to flash the stock firmware via Odin.
Totally stock, no bells and whistles.

My note 4 was going through this exact issue.
You'll need either a brand new battery, or you'll have to do a full format and reinstall whatever software you had prior.

Can you explain me a little more about that encryption on the boot partition.
First I was download official stock firmware for my model sm-n910t T-Mobile, than flash it try Odin and the problem is still stay Odin didn't change nothing. I was havin an OTA update that i couldn't install because of this DM- verify verifications failed.
So I download Smart Switch and through that program install the latest update that was realised this year with security patch from August I think it's Baseband version with N910TUVU2EQI2, but still problem is stay.
Do I need something more to do in Odin or what?

Honestly, I can't tell you more than I already have.
DM-verity (encryption) has to be active for you to be able accept an update.
I don't know why it's failing for you, can't fix it either.
