Uk GB Update

A Graham Hale posted this on the Sammy uk FB group wall.

"The 2.3.3 Gingerbread Update for the Galaxy S has a fault On the Firmware and they have pulled it to stop people from UPDATING. Any one that has needs to contact samsung to do a Firmware recovery via Kies"

He reckons its been pulled for a fault.

Just checked and I'm getting JPY as well.

Damn, I was excited lol

Hopefully this one is better than leaked JVK one.

Does anyone know whether crt animation for LEAKED JVK will work on official GB?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] electrotune1200:
Bloody hell!

Don't they test the firmware before they release it in the wild?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dk206:
good good. Just as expected. I was really not looking forward to getting the leaked JVK from feb. This is good news!

Will be worth the wait. Hopefully it will be as solid the 2.2.1 for Froyo back last dec :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dilbert83:
Well I updated this morning all went well. So I wonder whats wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mathijs727:
If they pulled this they fail.

Thy did it on dutch 2.2.1.

And don't want to wait any longer.

They've had enough time to test it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dk206:
Hoping that they accidently released the earlier JVK instead of the new one so thatS why it's on a halt :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] drew071:
Apparently they do....in the form of a "leaked" ROM lol. But obviously they dont listen to the feedback from the people who use the "leaked" ROMs ;)

drew
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dk206:
lol You need to flash stock 2.2.1 JPY again and wait for the official 2.3.3 U.K JVK :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ManMOuntain:
There won't be any difference between the JVK version that's been out for a while to the one he just updated to this morning I would imagine.

The original leaked JVK firmware works perfectly on a UK handset, I'm loving it :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tyxerakias:
+1000. People who have flashed JVB should not post here, it becomes very confusing. Read the title!!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dilbert83:
The worst thing is not knowing exactly why they pulled it! I wont be happy if they **** up my galaxy.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] electrotune1200:
They should give us free SGS's, let us test whatever crap they throw out.

We'll have the bugs listed within 3 days. Then they can release a solid, bug free release to the millions of other SGS's.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dk206:
Umm I'm sorry but the leaked JVK isn't solid at all.

One of the main flaws is that it doesn't support multi-touch with keyboard.

e.g The official Google Gingerbread IME keyboard from the Market etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jbdroid:
LOL tell that too on the official, not leaked JVB. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] got-petrol:
I went back to jpy today from the leaked gb and forgot how good jpy is...the gb that was leaked is rubish against jpy
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mossy1963:
@manmountain

Absolutely, my jvk rooted and modded is running great after>3 weeks now. Great battery life, smooth, fast, no fc's.

The leak did come from samsung's own service centre after all
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Northern.dj:
Most of us still on Jpy no this ;)

one problems that has come out is no communication with kies after with the drivers. So be careful as odin uses the same driver
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mossy1963:
God there is some bull **** flying round here today.

Gingerbread keyboard isn't gonna be included, its for the nexus s. Download it from the market if you want it, but swype is the future any way
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ManMOuntain:
Yep, I agree with that mossy1963. I've tried using the GB keyboard but always come back to swype :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Northern.dj:
Some that did manage to get the firmware and Vodafone customers are having problems getting back in to kies after
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dilbert83:
No problems connecting to or using kies with jvk.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mossy1963:
I was slightly surprised that samsung released gb over the weekend, but I assumed the limited release (finland) was to test the water ahead of a general europe wide release.

Looks like they've spotted some upgrade issues and are sorting them out. (i tried spoofing kies last night into thinking I'm nee region on earlier version. It told me fw available but hung on instal)

The positive is that they've turned up for work on monday and recognised an issue. Still expect to see xeu via kies in next 24 hours our so. Just wish OTA would work

edit: reported elsewhere that samsung servers down

I use a Romkitchen.org build of the leaked JVK. Works very smooth after 500 mb of apps and 1 month of use even without a lagfix. This is the first rom which I can use 3 days without to charge! I love this Rom!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tricky103:
For real..

Edit

I don't think you have updated

Vodafone say it is BUJV4
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tricky103:
Glad you like it :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dilbert83:
My phone is sim-free, The update was JVK and nothing to do with vodafone. Anyways i'm on orange.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tyxerakias:
So when you connect to Kies now with this leaked one, does it say it's the latest version? Or that it can't be updated?

@Tricky: Your kitchen should say XWJVB, not XXJVB... just a remark :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dilbert83:
Everything seems to be running smooth, Samsung can only make gingerbread better.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tricky103:
Ok okay soz :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] LuffarJoh:
Here is latest VOD at the moment.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tricky103:
Looks like you the guy who can get the update for me when it is out. :)

Kies say's, cannot connect to my device.......... I am on the stock JS3 f/w atm
[Galaxy S I9000 General] firefox73:
How are you guys getting JVK?

I'm on JPY with the latest Kies and Kies still keeps telling me my firmware is the latest version. I'm on XEU with an unbranded SGS in the UK. Should I be doing something different to get Kies to recognise that there is an update out there?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ManMOuntain:
Unless you have an immense amount of patience, why bother waiting to update with Kies? Just grab yourself the JVK ROM and flash with Odin.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] :
The upgrade has been pulled for some reason so you will not get it yet via Kies. Have a read around the threads
[Galaxy S I9000 General] firefox73:
Don't know about and immense amount of patience.

Just thought from the thread title that everyone was getting it via Kies. I've never touched Odin yet, although did root the phone via OCLF and was hoping to try and keep it totally stock, at least until I'd tested Sammys Gingerbread.

So does this mean that everyone is currently using Odin to get Gingerbread? Has anyone downloaded it via Kies in the last couple of hours?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] firefox73:
Had read that but the way this thread was running, it implied that people were still getting 2.3 over Kies in the UK.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] chrisb1977:
Looks like I will have to use Odin to get the update, when I plug in to Kies I get the message "this version of the device cannot be updated". It says nothing about me having the latest firmware, sounds more like I'll never be able to update through Kies.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] got-petrol:
If it has been pulled is because jvk is crap against jpy 2.2.1 i went back to jpy today to see if i got a update to gb but only got jpy through kies
[Galaxy S I9000 General] chrisjcks:
Same here, im on official JPY and kies just says i have the latest version already.

UK; XEU; unbranded
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JJEgan:
If your product code does not match firmware on the server it will not update . Neither will it update if a later firmware for your product code is not yet on the server .

I'll just install via Odin then I think.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mathijs727:
No it's because he already has the latest firmware (JPY)

Samsung has pulled the JVK release.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] iammodo:
With updating via kies do you lose all your apps and data like flashing with Odin?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rdy2go:
No. Everything is preserved.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] josteink:
While this is technically true I've had to do factory resets after Kies updates as well. Maybe clearing the dalvik cache etc would have been sufficient, but iirc that wasn't an option on the Samsung 3e Recovery my stock image had.

Basically I had to wipe. Granted I had applied the 1-click lagfix etc, but I had disabled it prior to updating in Kies.

Sometimes **** happens. Plan for the worst. Hope for the best. Etc.

Hi, Ive spoofed kies JPY XEU, but it is saying this version cannot be upgraded, will this change when they release JVK or will I not be able to update like this
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JJEgan:

Even if the update has not been pulled you may have to wait for your network to update .

In other words you cannot get an update until O2 have put the firmware on the server .

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Landorin:
For those still wondering why they should upgrade to official Gingerbread:

it fixes the security leak (rageagainstthecage or whatever it was called?) that was exploited in android market recently which allowed downloading remote code. That alone is reason enough for me to upgrade...

... once Kies allows me to do so. ;) Currently it says "this firmware cannot be upgraded". So either it's just a temporary issue or it doesn't like CF-Root or the fact I have JVE modem flashed. We'll see but apparently I'm not alone with this issue. :D

I still wonder if I have to wait for Kies really? Afaik there is no official Gingerbread version for flashing available yet that I could download, just the leaked version of an earlier date (and thus beta) as well as an official version but with different CSC? So right now it sounds I better wait for an official version matching my region (Germany)?

Anyways, I don't mind waiting but I am curious nevertheless. How can you if a ROM file is really official and non-beta?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] -Liam-:
So no official source then? lol ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] siddjazz:
If you are on O2, you may have to spoof it to O2U.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] dk206:
Why does there need to be a source? We are the source. Some managed to get the update in the early morning, some who were late to it didn't get it. What we do know for sure is that those on stock jpy 2.2.1 can't update to gingerbread right now. Lol Why is this so difficult for some if you guys on here to grasp?

There could be a million reasons why some people got it and some didn't. The servers could have crashed for all you know. All the talk on the forums is just speculation.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ManMOuntain:
I admit I have little patience so rather than wait for the gingerbread update for

O2 via kies, which will be the same as the ROMs available here, I gave in and flashed JVK manually. Glad I did :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Hero Yu:
Hmm just checked my kies. No update sadly, got unbranded galaxy s on jpx 2.2. 1
[Galaxy S I9000 General] got-petrol:
jvk is ok but its not as good as jpy which it should be and better the battery drain is realy bad im glad i went back to jpy after 3 weeks of testing jvk
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kezgez:
what were you on before you flashed with JVK were you still on 2.2 and how did you find the flashing, and whats your phone like now? im also on o2
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ManMOuntain:
Previously I had ran the Kies registry patch to force an early update via Kies to 2.2.1. I hate Kies, so I decided I'd just use Odin for flashing to JVK, it was simple and straightforward. I removed my MicroSD, O2 sim and chose in Odin to re-partition, opting the 803 PIT and selecting the CSC, PDA and PHONE in the JVK ROM package. Took around 5 minutes to flash and boot. I have since applied CF 3.1 kernel, CRT, GB keyboard and IP table tweaks. My phone just now is fine, everything works very well.

In my opinion, there's really no reason at all to not try manually flashing to JVK/JVB. Honestly, it's easy to do.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] phillipm:
such a shame I find 2.2.1 much faster than 2.3.3 JVK, very disappointed.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ManMOuntain:
I found the stock 2.2.1 to be randomly laggy, I don't experience that in 2.3.3.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Rat2000:
So are the servers back up? can we upgrade to jvk again?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] got-petrol:

Did the roll out Froyo like this as well?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ManMOuntain:
I should add that just for rollback testing, I downgraded one of my phones from 2.3.3 JVK to JPU then to 2.2.1 JPY with no problems whatsoever. Kies reports that "This is the latest firmware". So no, still no official update available for UK in Kies.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mossy1963:
@dk206

I can read too. Pure supposition. Don't pass rumour as fact.this is a forum populated by genuinely intelligent people who base their conclusions on facts not rumour. Keep your opinions to yourself unless you have credible evidence.

There are any number of reasons why the upgrade hadn't been rolled out just yet and so far none have come from samsung
[Galaxy S I9000 General] psiops:
sued

still no sign of 2.3.3 for me uk xeu jpy on 3uk

lots of rumours about it being pulled ,some sites have a uk date of the 20th but people allready have so?

but wonder if the fact apple are suing samsung may have anything to do with it?

this is not a rumour it is straight from the wall street journal dont know how reliable they are?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rizzy123:
im on the 2.3.3 jvk (which I downloaded from xda) and on XEU csc, when I go on kies it tells me, my firmware cannot be upgraded rather than say im on the latest version.

My phone was on tmobile when i got it which might be the reason. Anyway will the kies JVK be any different than the JVK rom that was has been on here for nearly a month?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xmfpdlemalnz@hotmail.com:
When official XEU gingerbread comes out,

Use kies registry hack to make kies think that your galaxy s is on 2.2.1 firmware and upgrade to official one.

It is most likely (in fact I have no doubt), official XEU GB will have later build date than leaked JVK and thus have slightly better overall performance.

The fact that they pulled out GB makes me think we still have a week or so to wait..

If you read many comments in that thread, it says it will offer you a new firmware but when it actually comes to downloading and installing, it will say

"your device can not be upgraded".

Have you actually fully installed a firmware with this method?

Or just checked what firmware is available and stop there?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] foxicek:
Wait so this "your device can not be upgraded" is kies patcher's fault, not because xeu jpy is not out yet? Is there any other way than this SpoofFW? Don't exactly want to root my phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JJEgan:
Kies can only upgrade a phone if their is newer firmware on the server .It also requires product code hardware id and firmware id to match a product on the server .

Two reasons no update.

One their is no update for your phone yet some network providers have been very slow in the past .

Two no update for the product code you are using etc that's usually a stock rom problem as it does not match id .

Personal preference is to wait for rom for my phone on Kies .

Flash back to saved Froyo original network rom . Upgrade through Kies saving the rom . Then use Rom Kitchen to build my own rom after the devs have had time to unravel the rom .

[Galaxy S I9000 General] amwebby:
My bad. When I downloaded the update those comments weren't there. Like the OP I checked but had no need to download so didn't realise the error.

As I'm on XEU, when the official release is out I shouldn't need to spoof but I apologise for any misleading information.

Now, come on Samsung!

[Galaxy S I9000 General] firefox73:
Just read on AndroidForums, that the yesterdays UK firmware that was pulled, has exactly the same build date as the earlier version that was temporarily available i.e. the beta version.

It would seem then that this maybe why Samsung have pulled it and may well mean that there are more than just server problems delaying the release???

If this is the case then all the original gremlins will still be present from the beta version. Is this the case for the Scandie country's who were supposed to have the first version of the new non-beta Gingerbread? How annoying, all this hype for what.....

Below is an exerpt from Vodafone eForum from a Vodafone administrator:

"Due to an issue with the Gingerbread update for the Samsung Galaxy S, its roll out has been temporarily suspended by Google. Unfortunately, this means the Vodafone variant is not currently available to download through KIES.

As there are no known performance issues with the Vodafone variant of the device, we are working with Samsung to reinstate the roll out as soon as possible.

I really like this phone but the battery drain is terrible. I have that verizon extended battery in it(2750mah) but even with that the phone will lose about 10% battery in about 1 1/2 hours during non-use and roughly double that if im browsing the web.

I have Battery Doctor and Juice Defender running at all times and disable anything i dont need to have running. Also, for some reason Battery Doctor does not display my current battery status accurately so i use a basic battery stat widget to know exactly how much battery is left.

Does anyone have any recommendations on what i should do? Apps i should use/not use? Oh and i do keep display brightness down and have done a full cycle charge.

Thanks!
