Samsung Galaxy S :: Upgrading Firmware

Aug 14, 2010

Its the firmware that came on the phone and if its not the latest, what should I be running? I prefer a firmware thats been tested and known to work flawlessly. I dont really want to use any firmware in delopment stages etc.

Samsung Galaxy I7500 :: Upgrading Firmware - PC Not Recognizing Phone

Sep 15, 2010

I just bought a Samsung Galaxy i7500 with Bell mobility and I am trying to figure all these threads out and how to root, and how to upgrade my firmware, but the biggest hurdle I have come to is my pc will not recognize my phone as a 'phone' it only sees the internal sd card and the external card. I have downloaded three different versions of the samsung PC suite, and everyone will not recognize it. Am I missing an important driver? All I am doing is connecting via USB, and on my phone I choose to mount USB so I can access my sd cards on my PC.

Samsung I7500 :: No Software With Delivery / Tutorial For Upgrading Firmware?

Sep 10, 2009

I just received my phone today. Wifi doesn't work - it just says "remembered" but disconnected. I've read a lot of threads with how to upgrade the firmware, but they have a lot of terminology I don't know at all. Is there a guide or tutorial for upgrading the firmware?

1.) Model Number ? Galaxy
2.) Firmware Version ? 1.5
3.) Baseband Version ? I7500JVG4
4.) Kernel Version ? 2.6.27 wootae77@SE-S409 #1
5.) Build Number ? 76XXCSDCBALUM6375

I bought the phone on Expansys, and they shipped it from the US to Canada (where I live). I'm using Fido as the carrier. There was no software (e.g. CD) that came with the delivery. So what are the steps in upgrading to the latest firmware?

Samsung Galaxy S :: What Firmware Are You All Using?

Nov 13, 2010

I rooted my phone a few weeks back and loaded up the Froyo update, but I fancy a change. What Firmware/theme /ROM etc are you all using?I've been looking around and can't find many places to get such things.I've seen a few people have modified their SGS (physically). I'm not wanting to go down that road, but I'd love to hear from others that have done and wish to post pics of what they've done too.I love my phone far too much to physically modify it.So, what have you changed on your phone?

Samsung Galaxy S :: Firmware Updates

Jul 27, 2010

Okay, start at the start! got this phone (unlocked pay as you go) from Clove (Excellent) and put my o2 pay as you go sim inside, and straight away im on 3g no problems.....

Then..... See some nice new firmware, (JM2) and think i will have some of that! (Install with odin, not using CSC file Initially, then using CSC -- EURO ? not UK specific? file included with update

And now....

On both counts i have had to manually install the apn settings, (no problem)

But....

Apps are missing from the market place, (new google id & with & without csc file)

Im thinking the CSC file is more important than we think, in that it holds APN information for UK operators, and that when you go into marketplace this CSC file reflects a UK phone in some way, and displays according apps

Battle for Mars ... only the lite version is available HistoryEraser ... is no longer available etc etc...

So two things can anyone with JM2 see those apps?, and other thing I have a feeling that Kies won't update our phones to the latest firmware (Eventually) if our csc file reflects that our phone is a EURO phone, not neccesarily a problem if you use odin but you know what i mean!

Other thing that i wasnt aware of ... using odin resets battery stats. On xda developers there is a fix for this

Last thing......

Can someone who can see these apps upload the csc file somehow.

Samsung Galaxy S :: Cannot Update Firmware Via Kies

Aug 16, 2010

I have been waiting for kies to say that new firmware is available (when it works!) and finally it knows there is an update to my JF3 - presumably JM1.

However, is says that 'this device's version cannot be updated'

My SGS was bought from Mobiles.co.uk and is using an Orange SIM and as far as I can tell it is not locked or branded.

The current firmware is

PDA ...XXJF3
Phone ...XXJF3
CSC ...XAJF3

Is this an 'Orange' CSC?

How I can get it updated?

Samsung Galaxy S :: Installed New Firmware Through Kies

Sep 12, 2010

I finally managed to install new firmware through Kies.

I live in Indonesia, bought the phone from a gadgets store. The phone is unlocked/sim free/unbranded.

The original firmware code (dial *#1234#):
PDA: I9000DXJF4
Phone: Unknown <-- what the ?
CSC: I9000OLBJF4

And this is what I've done:
Downloading and installing Kies from Australia instead of Indonesia. The version number is higher 1.5.1.10083. The important 64-bit drivers already included. Installed smoothly on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, but had driver problem in Windows Vista Home 32-bit. I don't bother to try to reinstall Kies in Vista again though, so I don't know if this version is really not working in Vista 32-bit.

Press/dial *#272*HhMm# (Hh and Mm is hour and minute in 24H format, 2 digits) then select the code from the list equal to "Sales Code" at the top, which is XSE (Indonesia), and press Install. Warning, this step will erase the internal SD card. Make backup first if you must. Android then began to installing "something".

After the installation from step two is completed, the phone will reboot itself. To make sure that everything is still working (no more downloaded Applications or Contacts though, everything was wiped out), I did reboot the phone once again. The phone works normally. But my phone type was still "Unknown" at this point.

Without changing any setting in the phone and Kies, I connect the USB to the phone, Kies fired up automatically, and voila! My phone was detected, and Kies also gave me a notification that a new firmware is available (I9000DXJG4). So, I downloaded and applied the firmware.

New firmware installed successfully. Works better and faster/smoother than DXJF4. GPS is much better now. Love it.

Dial *#1234# gives me this now:
PDA: I9000DXJG4
Phone: I9000DXJG4 <-- yay!
CSC: I9000OLBJG4

In this firmware, Samsung also includes an application/widget called "Task Manager", which is pretty much like those "Task Killer" apps in the market.

And now, The Buts!
YouTube (APK) is not working. In JF4 it worked well.

Android Market now can't download every item I selected, but it can show the list normally. I did login successfully using my Google account.

Samsung Kies detected the phone but now giving me this warning "The SIM card is not inserted, can't continue communication". The SIM card is inside the phone!

Samsung Kies really gives me a headache, literally. Old problems fixed, new problems arise. Anyone knows how to solve that three problems? Please?

Or, should I redo the *#272*HhMm# procedure once again after installing the new firmware?

Samsung Galaxy S :: Bugs & Firmware Sugestions

Aug 1, 2010

Addressed to Samsung and to anyone else experiencing these stuff.

1.BUG! when surfing the internet using the in-built browser (or any 3rd-party browser) 10/10 times the Auto-fit function does not work. And this is for ANY website I have tried so far.

2.a way to enhance and smoothen how an app (or an acitivty like playing music or watching a video) closes and goes back to the main home screen ala iPhone. (READ: the way it fades back or a millisecond door closing like the iPhone)

3.a way for the auto-rotate function smoothly and better like the iPhone. The Galaxy S rotates roughly and the 1GHX processor surely should do something like what the iPhone does. And a lot better!

4.a way to boost the in-built wi-fi signal. My router is N-standard and when I go to my room which is 7 steps away (and only blocked by a small thin wall) the signal greatly degrades which In my opinion is odd.

5.a way to be able to use some Google or 3rd party app or when doing another task (like looking through photos) when playing an MP3 file on the background. For example in my experience when I was playing an MP3 file and when I went to Google Maps the music stops playing. Why?

6.URGENT! multitasking please to be a norm! Surely with a 1GHz processor there should me very minimal slowdown when opening and using multiple apps; 4 out of 10 times the phone freezes and goes very slow when doing multiple tasks and the more files (especially music and videos) you put on it.

7.when playing an MP3 file to use the 5.1 channel surround sound function in conjunction or in unison even if the Equaliser and the Effect function are set to a user's preference.

8.on the Main and Applications home screen the ability to sift through each home screen continously. For example if I was on home screen # 7 and I want to go back to home screen #1 without having to press the main center Home button and going back 7 steps why not make sifting through home screens continously. Can you see what I mean by this?

9.swipe sideways to unlock like the iPhone

10.a battery-saving app please! i've charged my brand-new Galaxy S and once I start using it (just using weather, news and watching a video) the battery slowly starts fading away after say 15 minutes. although not overly fading away.

11.BUG? when the 3G/HSDPA signal is too low (between 0 to 2 bars which is beyond my control) the wi-fi is automatically turned-on for some reason.

12.when zooming in on a photo (using pinch-to-zoom) taken from the phone the picture doesn't sharpens itself unlike the iPhone

Samsung Galaxy S :: Latest Firmware Code

Samsung Galaxy S :: Firmware - Android And Rooting

Jul 21, 2010

I am getting a little confused.

My phone is running

Android v2.1 update 1
I9000XXJF3

The following firmware versions are listed on Samsung Firmwares website:

I9000XXJE2 2010 May
I9000XXJE3 2010 May
I9000XXJE5 2010 May
I9000XXJE62010 May
I9000XXJE7 2010 May
I9000XXJE9 2010 May
I9000XXJEC 2010 May
I9000XXJF1 2010 June
I9000XXJF2 2010 June
I9000XXJF3 2010 June
I9000XXJF7 2010 June
I9000XXJFB 2010 June
I9000XWJFD 2010 June
I9000XWJFF 2010 June
I9000XWJG1 2010 July
I9000XWJG3 2010 July
I9000XWJG5 2010 July

Are these official Samsung versions? If so, why does Kies not offer to upgrade my phone if there are later versions? If not and I upgrade to a later firmware version:Which version should I upgrade to? Do I need to root the phone? What happens if Samsung release later versions - will there be a conflict etc? Will it affect any of the apps I currently have? Will there be a problem upgrading to v2.2 Froyo?

If I root the phone:What happens if Samsung release later versions - will there be a conflict etc? Will it affect any of the apps I currently have? Will there be a problem upgrading to v2.2 Froyo?

The reason i would like to upgrade the firmware is the lag - I can live with it, but if there is a solution I would rather not. If I could remove the lag it woulld be the perfect phone.

One thing I am not too keen on, is ending up in a similar situation to my jailbroken iphone - became a pain in the arse everytime a new version of the OS was released.
