I can see the option under Manage Applications to uninstall updates. I could try that I guess but not sure how far back that will take me. Is there a thread that helps resolve this? (I'm looking)

Could you post your map version? Only backup I can find is 5.4.0
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeles:
I guess since I'm no linked to the market it means I'm running from my own backup (v5.4.0) and I can't do the uninstall updates... right now I'm seeing decent battery life though... but I haven't used Maps today.

Why not an Odin ROM?
[Galaxy S II General] 0Mudassar:
I just got off the phone with Samsung UK who are telling me that they are going to remove the KE1 upgrade as they have had many phones die on them, which have had to be sent to them for delivery.

I called because the phone would not complete the upgrade, it would hang at the final stage, but it seems strange that its not mentioned anywhere on their website, or no press release about this!?

Anyone had their phones die on them when upgrading to KE1?

Edited: Samsung meant don't upgrade to KE2, I made a mistake thinking it was KE1....
[Galaxy S II General] Northern-Loop:
I was fine on KE1 and now moved onto KE2
[Galaxy S II General] drm111:
I've been on KE1 since it was put out, haven't gone over to KE2 due to the issues that firmware has with Orange.

Whoever you spoke to was talking out of their ass/massively misinformed I bet.
[Galaxy S II General] Rawat:
KE1 has been deprecated in favour of KE2, and is no longer available to update to via Kies.
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:

All of the above is a Kies or Kies user problem not a KE1 problem same with any firmware via Kies always possible failure .

Talking out of his Rse +1

[Galaxy S II General] Matchstick:
Don't know if this is at all related but I just plugged my phone into Kies and when before it would say that my phone has the latest firmware version it now says "the version of the device cannot be updated"

Very odd.
[Galaxy S II General] Northern-Loop:
Is yours O2 Branded? That would makes sense if so :)
[Galaxy S II General] greigster:
Please explain why.
[Galaxy S II General] dan13l:
No, it wouldn't. KE1 and subsequently KE2 were both available to O2 branded phones just the same as unbranded ones. They showed up in Kies for me (even though I eventually gave up on that steaming heap of elephant excrement and used Odin).
[Galaxy S II General] andrej.marinic:
lol² :)

[Galaxy S II General] 0Mudassar:
When I plug my phone in Kies gives me the following...

It doesnt mention KE2 there?
[Galaxy S II General] steve228uk:
Mine says the same thing. Unlocked from Phones4U.

EDIT: Just called Samsung, he said it was displaying this message because there wasn't an update available as the handset shipped with the latest firmware ("android 2.2").

Once again we have support that haven't a bloody clue about the product they're meant to be helping with.
[Galaxy S II General] kratos123:
Mine is unlocked from phones4U and kies says that KE1 is the latest firmware. I remember a few days ago, kies detected that I was able to do a update to KE2, but I did not upgrade at the time because people were saying there were some problems with crashing. But now I cant upgrade? :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Image is unreadable .

Kies updates if a later firmware for that phones product code has been uploaded by the phone provider .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] Matchstick:
OK, not so it's just me then :)

I wonder if everyone with KE2 is seeing this message or if it's detecting something about our phones it doesn't ?
[Galaxy S II General] steve228uk:
What network are you running on? I'm still having the 'com.android.phone' force-closing error so maybe it's detecting what SIM I have in there...

EDIT: Nope, took the SIM out and it didn't make a blind bit of difference.
[Galaxy S II General] troffers:
I'm having the exact same thing. Updated via kies last night, turned phone off to charge and get the same force close error. It randomly seems to sort itself out though in a few minutes.

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II General] Matchstick:
I'm running an O2 branded SGSII on T-Mobile.

It's been updated to KE2 via kies and rooted using the insecure KDD kernel then the stock KE2 kernel reapplied.

I thought I've plugged it into kies and seen the normal Latest firmware message AFTER I'd rooted and reapplied the stock kernel, but maybe I'm misremembering that and this is what's causing Kies to say no update is available ?
[Galaxy S II General] croftyboy8:
This happened to me when attempting to upgrade from KE1 to KE2. I only tried once and having read the issues with the other guys on orange i sacked it off.

KE1 is fine for me tho
[Galaxy S II General] 0Mudassar:
I can see the pic I attached earlier fine? anways Samsung must have meant dont upgrade to KE2 then (being the latest firmware).

Especially as I cant see that as an update anymore on Kies, only KE1....
[Galaxy S II General] skola:
i have an orange unbranded phone for phones4u

upgraded via klies to KE2 with no problems, been running it and it seems fine

what sort of issues are people with this firmware on orange experiencing?!?
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Unbranded = not an Orange phone just an Orange sim no Orange firmware .

[Galaxy S II General] BuddyLee:
My unbranded gs2 came with KE1 and I upgraded to KE2 with no problems.
[Galaxy S II General] skola:
:D thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] hazart:
O2-branded KE1 upgraded to KE2 without a problem.
[Galaxy S II General] drm111:
So you have an unbranded phone with an orange sim card and you updated to KE2 and you don't get the force close issue?

Well done, somehow, you're the ONLY person. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] scottishlad80:
Been using KE2 on O2 for a week no force closes.
[Galaxy S II General] prusling:
Mine's an unrooted locked O2 contract phone in the UK.

I had a hang when upgrading to XWKE2 using Kies but I then performed firmware recovery expecting it to revert, but that left it with XWKE2 and it has been working fine since.
[Galaxy S II General] rojdag:
Im on 3 uk no update available been on ke1 since I got my phone last thursday.
[Galaxy S II General] vimto25:

[Galaxy S II General] Sparkie1968:
As mentioned by others, this issue only affects people with unbranded S2's with an Orange sim installed, me being one of them!! :(
[Galaxy S II General] Matchstick:
So is the KE2 upgrade being pulled the reason that my phone (and others) is now reported as running an unknown firmware ?
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
So is the KE2 upgrade being pulled the reason that my phone is now reported as running an unknown firmware ?

Thats usually due to a non Kies firmware upgrade .

Use Odin and Kies update door firmly closed .

[Galaxy S II General] stoolzo:
I am dubious about any such claims from Samsung, firstly they dont deal with end users unless you log a fault with them, and their standard reply to faults is "get your phone checked out", I find it very unlikely that they would tell an end user about them dropping a ROM. Where exactly did you get this info, do you have it documented anywhere?
[Galaxy S II General] mossief1965:
On unbranded here also with ke2 and no problems.
[Galaxy S II General] maddoguk:
Mine is unbranded and on Vodafail UK, updated both updates through Kies and now get the error message but no fc's and running smooth.
[Galaxy S II General] bilboa1:
I upgraded to KE2 and my MMC died after a couple of days (heavy use tho). I don't know if its related to KE2 or not but in doubt I would go back to KDD.
[Galaxy S II General] Matchstick:
Except I did update via Kies and I thought, up until a couple of days ago, that Kies recognised the firmware (though I couldn't swear to that last bit).
[Galaxy S II General] shawsky:
You are correct, mid morning on Tuesday it was still showing the firmware as being the latest. It was only later in the afternoon that it changed to 'This version cannot be updated' message.

The post by JJEgan is mis-information.
[Galaxy S II General] sohanlon07:
I'm on KE2 with no issues that I know of.
[Galaxy S II General] EvilRadish:
I upgraded and it failed on me with the phone being stuck on a big green android logo. I then pulled the battery mid update, and run the update again (worked 2nd time) was a bit cowboy of me but hey It was new and I wanted to play :)
[Galaxy S II General] turborider:
worked for me first time on kies last week no prob at all,this is the last time i buy from samsung,going back to htc when contract run out,their updates and the product is better than samsung,you find nothing no log of what they change and done to the updates,we just downld and install them with no idea whats inside
[Galaxy S II General] DARKKRAKEN:
Mine shipped with the KE2 firmware.
[Galaxy S II General] tameracingdriver:
Well all I can say is I've been on KE1 for about a week now, and my phone hasn't blown up yet! And since nobody can actually tell me what it is that is supposed to be better about KE2, and the fact that I'm having relatively few issues compared to some, well, you know how the saying goes ;)
[Galaxy S II General] turborider:
im on ke2 mate and i have no idea wth is about and plp keep talking about the fixes like swype brighteness without looking the logs to see what fixes are made
[Galaxy S II General] rojdag:
no ke2 on 3 uk yet, mine shipped with ke1. i didnt think this update had to go through the cvarriers i thought it was straight from samsung?
[Galaxy S II General] Matchstick:
AHA !

Just connected my phone up to kies and once again it's now recognising the KE2 O2 firmware as valid.

There isn't an update currently, but at least it wasn't something I did to the phone that was causing the problem.

Cheers for making me aware of this new deal. There's also £55 available cashback through TCB or Quidco (or both not sure). I can see myself going for the 160+20*12 deal. Sounds really good but if CPW push this out you can get even better cashback there I think. Note that e2save is CPW's parent company. Here's a message from a forum member who took out a similar deal with CPW:

Hey yes its on Talkmobile (uses vodafone 3g&2g)

I'm living north of London and I can get usually 3bars with H anytime I want but in central London I always get full bar.

The really good thing is not the coverage but the actual signal intensity. Tm 3g is really fast comparing to my orange 3g network.

Hi, just wanted to get a quick check on what the Transformer currently supports. I'm trying to decide whether it can be a netbook replacement. My essential needs are:

1. netflix/hulu - I don't think apps are available for these yet right? anyway to get them to work?

2. sound recording through USB - I need to hook up an external USB microphone for recording. I assume there are adequate sound processing apps already?

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidxRage:
There is currently a way to get the browser to play Hulu videos.

Netflix app was just released and is adding support for more devices. The TF isn't officially supported, but we're hoping for that or a modded version soon.

Not sure about recording, although newer versions of android promise full USB host compatibility.

Hope that helps! :)

Is there a fix for WiFi or should I just start the process over and format the system, data and cache under mounts and storage.

Download the correct one for your region, latest one is 05/11/2011

Do I download that from the TF or my computer?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxp3:
Either way, but I suppose it's easier to do it on a computer. Basically you have to unzip a folder called "asus" onto the root directory of a microSD card, then place into the transformer and it finds it and do the update. There's step by step instruction there on the website as well.
