[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lithicus:
Heh. Started Kies fresh and checked for updates and it told me the old version I grabbed a few days ago is current.

Then I restart it, check again, suddenly updates are available. Choose to update, the app close as if to start download, then restarts without updating.

Finally I went back into update, rechecked, and this time it went into download mode successfully.

I am so disappointed in this crap. I left Nokia after a decade of their "high end" phones thinking android would be the way to go, but now android is being manhandled by every manufacturer and telephone company. What's the point? The only up to date android seems to be the Nexus One. We're here eagerly waiting for 2.2 while n1 users wait for 3.0

Oh, and even more off topic: yesterday I found out that the default web browser refuses to download mp3 files! Opera mini did it fine.

It asks me to select to upgrade from JG9 to JH2. I continue on and at the downloading step, I get a "Stopped Working Error" - "MSC.Thunder.FirmwareUpdate has stopped working.

After jumping through the hoops to update Kies, I'm getting this as well.

It asks me to upgrade from JF3 (stock) to JM1, and crashes with "MSC.Thunder.FirmwareUpdate has stopped working".

The crash is actually an OutOfMemoryException, and the MSC process was using close to 500mb of memory at the time. (Still lots of memory free though.)

This is really a mess .. MSC.Thunder.FirmwareUpdate has stopped working .. Windows 7 32 bit. I have tried the below.

1) Uninstalled Kies Cleanly ( Uninstall + Directory Delete )

2) Download latest firmware ( October 2,2010 - from Samsung )

3) Reboot

4) Clean install

5) Reboot PC , Check for updates ( Confirms latest version )

6) Set Default USB mode to Kies

7) Disable any startup apps

8) Reboot SGS

9) Plug into PC SGS

10) Recognized , Says new available firmware.

11) Then all **** breaks loose.

What can I do.. !!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stormrain:
Same problem here. I even did that compatibility mode. Seriously I love my phone, but Samsung's support through Kies is just self-embarassing. Thank God I don't have to rely on Kies for anything else than the firmware upgrade, otherwise I doubt I would have kept an otherwise great phone.

Anyway, waiting for a solution too...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericdunn:
I think I've got it ...

Hey guys,

I've got it working in windows 2008 R2 64 bit (should be the same in windows 7 64 bit)

After attaching a debugger to MSC.Thunder.FirmwareUpdate.exe, I noticed by looking at the stack trace that a method was being called over and over again :

at MSC.Thunder.FirmwareUpdate.Common.FirmwareUpdateInfo.WriteTraceNotUseReg(Object trace)

I then oppened up MSC.Thunder.FirmwareUpdate.Common.dll in reflector, and noticed that if a specific registry entry wasn't present, the method would call itself causing an endless loop:

RegistryKey key = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey(@"Software\Samsung\FUS");

if (key == null)

{

WriteTraceNotUseReg(Encoding.Default.GetString(bytes));

}

So I started looking within the registry and sure enough, Software\Samsung\FUS didn't exist, but Software\Wow6432Node\Samsung\FUS did. I looked in there and there's basically nothing. So, all I did was create the key under Software\Samsung\ called FUS , and everything worked!

(GPS Issue): Although it seems to be able to see satellites faster, it doesn't seem to be able to get a fix on any of them, meaning I can't get the location.

Hope this helps !

Eric.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xavierzutafun:
Here's my story:

I have been using Kies on my PC for quite a long time, I did an update to 1.5.3.10093_80 few days ago (I can't remember when exactly). Nothing happened, I got no messages about the firmware upgrade whatsoever.

Today I decided to install the Kies into my laptop, downloaded the official exe file from the Samsung webpage, updated to above mentioned version (this took bloody long) and what happened - Kies started to notify me about the new firmware for my Galaxy S. As I did not really believe that it would be Froyo, I checked it out - it was just some kind of Eclair update (can't remember the numbers, though).

Now this shows, how screwed up Kies is...I just hope that they will as well fix all the issues with the connectivity, as I have tried loads of different guides from various websites (including this one) and I still keep having silly issues while trying to connect my phone to the PC and use the tethering, for example...

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Make sure you install and run kies as Administrator. Make sure the phone is running stock browser and has bluetooth and sync turned off. Make sure you plug the USB direct into the back USB port of the computer and not through a hub (front USB's are usually seen as a hub). The latest version of Kies is 10093.81 but you can only get it atm by installing 10093.80 and updating from there. Finally make sure your Firewall allows Kies to access the net or nothing will work.

Because no matter how much we complain it will still happen and you know it.

No need to stress yourself over it.

As stated in previous post, Different members have different needs. Different builds have different flaws. They say the Desire hd beta 2 is fantastic but the camera doesnt work.

I have tried most of the other builds and for some reason I always end up reverting to shubcraft 1.5

While it may be time consuming you should test these builds out for yourself.

This is a development based community and your constructive feed back is vital to everyone. Because they dont have a hired beta team we do the beta testing and provide feedback. If testing seems like to much work then you should probably wait it out.

I have tried my gfs vibrant, my vibrant, exchanged for a different vibrant, all have the same issue. All the phones work perfectly in other cars, just my car.
