Hi ! I have a Galaxy S, SGH-I897, AT&T, unlocked. I have been trying to use Kies (version 1.5.3.10093_80) to upgrade the firmware, as stated on Kies window.

Everytime I try it, I have "Firmware upgrade cannot proceed. Firmware upgrade will close." Also, Kies crashed after clicking on cancel after it.

Version installed: PDA:JF6 / Phone:JF6 / CSC: JF6

Most recent: PDA:JH7 / Phone:JF7 / CSC:JF6

Current firmware: 2.1-update 1

Baseband version: I897UCJF6

Kernel version: 2.6.29

Builder number: eclair

WIndows 7 - 64 bit

Please, any idea how to fix it?

Tks !
[Captivate General] systemwizard:
Bump !! Anyone ?
[Captivate General] LinuxNewb:
Kies sucks. Use Odin
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
Samsung has Mini Kies (or Kies Mini) which is more stable then Kies. It is on their web site under support software for the captivate.
[Captivate General] willasb:
I have tried it already (Mini Kies) and does not work as well...
[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
Must I repeat what he said?

Kies sucks. Use Odin.

I'll even be nice and give you some links.

If you want Froyo 2.2 go here

If you want 2.1 JH7 go here

And for stock 2.1 JF6 go here

You should ALWAYS keep the one for JF6 on your computer incase you have a catastrophic failure of your phone and need to return to stock for any reason.
[Captivate General] willasb:
Got it ! Thanks !!!!!
[Captivate General] bw1969:
I downloaded the 2.2 Odin and it does nothing... Not sure how Odin works...

Thanks in advance for your help... Oh... Miztaken do you work for ATT? If so, I wanted to ask you some quick questions if I could... Thanks!!
[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
No I don't work for AT&T lol. For Odin to work you need to put your phone in download mode. Turn it completely off. Remove the USB cable. Start Odin. Hold both volume keys on the phone and plug in the USB cable. The phone should say download and do not turn off target. At this point Odin should see your phone. Click start on Odin and your phone should be updating. If you have any other questions just ask

Sent from my Captivate
[Captivate General] bw1969:
Thanks so much for the info! As a newbie... gotta ask how do you put the phone in download mode? As I understand it, download mode is activated by the holding down of the buttons right? Thanks again!!
[Captivate General] berd:
Does odin work even if your phone is rooted or should you unroot first like kies?
[Captivate General] bw1969:
Just wanted to thank you again! I was able to run it and my phone is up and running now!
[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
Odin works regardless of if your phone is rooted or not.

Successfully upgraded using Kies

If you want to be sure you are installing the official version try to upgrade to the latest version of Kies first.

I am running Win7 and had the same problem before upgrading Kies.

You have to do factory reset on phone after upgrade to froyo (could not find icon for market!)

so, finally the official froyo update is here.

but it sure needs a lag fix still... (i actually got slower results in J disk benchmark after upgrading to froyo)

Anyone knows if it is possible to apply lag fix to this version?

I am running:

firmware 2.2

I900XXJPM (PDA=JP6, PHONE=JPM)

Looks like Samsung has fixed the most obvious TouchWiz bugs!

Finally being able to create contacts in phone and make them sync to gmail.

Default option when creating entry in calendar is also to changed to make entry sync correctly.

is anyone having any issues with weather not showing on phone, been like this for nearly 3 hrs now, Orange network.
[Desire General] sharpey:
No problems here, im on O2
[Desire General] Lothaen:
I had problems all yesterday where my 'current location' would not show the weather, just the name of where I was... places I had loaded by name, i.e. london were showing fine.
[Desire General] gurmukhp:
Me too! Remove the widget and then re-add it. Worked for me!
[Desire General] oursoul:
why do you need an app to tell you the weather?

look out the window
[Desire General] pigbrother:
Because I can't see the forecast for tomorrow from my window. And my nose lacks a thermometer, also...
[Desire General] Lothaen:
I fixed the problem I had by turning off GPS and back on again...
[Desire General] oursoul:
sure

sorry for my obnoxiousness.. i just find the HTC weather app rubbish, all I ask from a weather app is a forcast for the next 24 hours.. the Google Genie widget has a good go, but really that's annoying too, with its % chance of rain thing :D

The day the met office release an app with decent satalite images and pressures, finally weather forcasting in the UK on Android will make some sense.

ps I can tell the temperature with my nose.. if its either hot, warm, cool, cold or bloody freezing ;)
[Desire General] Cpt_Chaos:
I am using a stock Desire with 2.2 on it and I occassionally have this problem as well. It is sometimes pretty annoying. I find having to delete it and reinstall it a pain in the backside.

I would also be interested if anyone found a more permanent solution. I agree the weather programs are not super accurate, but I live in a country where the weather changes quite often and it is nice to see how I have to dress to go to work everyday.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] justwonder:
Try to update kernel, uncheck auto brightness.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] JanssoN:
Good idea. Also try to flash another radio, I've read that 2.10 causes alot of SODs. Maybe try 2.12 or even 2.14
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dusdus:
try not to remove the battery, as it can corrupt your data. Preferably reset the phone.

If I run into any trouble with android I do the following:

- download a android focussed rom (like chuckydroid)

- download the latest radio (2.14 is doing great for me btw)

- download a android build I like (some builds run better than others)

- format the SD card using a card reader (FAT32, 64 kb clustersize)

- task29 (format NAND)

- flash radio

- flash chuckydroid

- transfer the Android folder to SD card (which is a class 6 one btw)

- boot into awesomeness!

[Desire General] senis1:
Hello.

Today I received the final answer from Parrot:

Hello again,

We've already exchanged

We now have the confirmation that the HTC desire has to be deleted for the compatibility list of the 3200.

It used to work with the 2.1 version it's not working anymore on the 2.2 version.

You cannot use the HTC Desire with the 3200 car kit and we're sorry for that and will correct our web site accordingly.

So it seems I will not have success with my Parrot CK3200LS-COLOR car kit, if I use Desire with ROM based on Android 2.2.

So my questions:

1. Could somebody confirm the compatibility of Android 2.1 (Eclair) with 3200LS ?

2. If yes, could you advice some custom ROM based on Android 2.1 for my Desire ?

Many thanks for suggestions.
[Desire General] K900:
Eclair custom roms were dead for long. Maybe AOSP is your way

I have stock HTC 2.2 and it works perfectly with the 3200.

Try breaking the facebook links the desire puts in your phonebook if you add a facebook accounts and so on. I had problems until I did that, it worked perfectly afterwards.
[Desire General] senis1:
I have no facebook links and I disabled Syncro in Parrot's pairing menu. So problem is not in phonebook.

It is impossible to download from there.

I'm going to roll back from leedroid_v2.1a to r3.1 MoDaCo Custom ROM for HTC Desire with Online Kitchen (2.1 / Eclair). Must I reflash radio also? Now my radio is 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2. Is some difference between procedures of reflashing from 2.2 to 2.1 and from 2.2 to 2.2 based ROM's?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cletus8:
HI!

Well, my question is simple: is there any 21680 Default ROM for my TILT2 / HTC TP2 ?

If not a totally default one... Which one is the cooked ROM that has less customization ? I mean, in the graphical style. I want the graphical style and startup programs to be untouched.

Thanks!

Try Energy ROMs. NRGZ28 is using 21680 right now. It's pretty fast. If you like Sense, but don't want many extras, you can check out the Standard Reference ROMs. They were just updated earlier tonight actually. If you'd rather not use Sense, go with Titanium.

Get Oskitchen, dump your stock rom using that. Import 21680 into the kitchen, and then cook your own with 21680 replacing the default sys. No need to play with any options etc. You will get the stock rom with a new sys.

Can't really get much closer to stock than that.

Someone who has installed the OTA JI6.

Please post your build.prop from /system/ so we know if the leak is diff from the OTA.

Very simple to do.

adb pull /system/build.prop

Then post it here. or on paste bin.

Thanks!
[Vibrant General] rhcp011235:
Thats great info you posted. But, it does not tell us if the leak we all installed/running roms off of is the REAL JI6 or its just a PRE-leak version with the bugs still there.

Hence, why i want a build.prop so we can compare build dates.
[Vibrant General] eortizr:

if i had it...i would put the info up here. i'm currently running the leaked JI6. so... hope it turns out to be the same. BTW...

I am starting to wonder if this update is the same build as the leaked JI6. There are 2 apps that I can't find in the market but I can see them stock. I can see them on Appbrain but when I go to install it the phone just says download unsuccessful. Same thing happened on JI5.

One app is Fandango Movies. Can someone with the official OTA check and see if you can see it in the market?

Thanks.

Yea i also went all stock this morning and waiting.

Another thing with leaked JI6 is 5.1 was broken

[Vibrant General] rogerchew:
did not know that checking re-partition erases prior data! so if i don't check re-partition, then i keep my original programs??
[Vibrant General] demo23019:
you dont need pit file

And you dont need to repartition, unless you want to lose everything

updated fine with just tar.
[Vibrant General] Raistline:
Mine is now flashing...

I also found out something very valueable during this process.

Be Patient, and don't try to run and flash with odin from a network drive.

This is my first flash btw, so how long does this take and how do I know when it is complete?
[Vibrant General] d_bot:
Edit:

I am stupid

this answered my question

you dont need pit file and you dont need to repartition.

updated fine with just tar. and if u want do factory reset from setting after.

I recieved the ota update today..when i installed it ..the process would reach 50% and fail. I was using jac's kernel, no lag fix, and stock rom ..so i flashed back to stock kernel from the franktwiz thread and was able to run update successfully. Figure post here if someone runs into a similar situation as mine.
[Vibrant General] spimonkey34:
You will get a message in Odin that says either pass or fail. It took me about 5-8 minutes total.

No. The .tar is all you need.
[Vibrant General] motorjonny:
I had the same problem.. but it didnt offer me the update again after i used odin to go back to stock... did it just reappear or did you force the update somehow??
[Vibrant General] mmilestone:
Done. Flashed smoothly

Now showing Eclair.UVJI6 Build with T959UVJI6 Baseband

GPS got a lock outdoors within 1 minute. Couldn't get a lock indoors (not surprised)

Funny though. My whole desktop launched into the same exact system as I had it before flashing(Launcherpro and all that). I got used into redoing everything after every flash.

So far so good. I'll run it through its paces now.

Edit: I also flashed my other Vibe with the broken screen. Pushed vol up and down buttons, plugged USB and started blindly flashing as soon as Odin detected it. I don't see what's going on-screen but Odin3 says it also passed. (YAY!!) Now waiting for that replacement screen and FFC from GPD to arrive.

[Vibrant General] slycon:
I keep hearing about odin, but don't know a single thing about it. I just successfully installed the JI6 update using odin, so here's a how-to for those who want the update but may be slightly intimidated using the program:

This site was a great step by step reference point for me:

http://www.handcellphone.com/mobile/samsung-galaxy-s-how-upgrade-firmware-using-odin-flash-tool

You don't need the pit file, so don't worry about step 5. Download the .tar file from post #143 in this thread (password to extract the file is samfirmware.com).

In step 10, I found that powering off and then holding the volume+ and volume- while plugging in the USB at the same time worked in getting me into Download mode.

Everything else is pretty much outlined in the above link. Good luck!
[Vibrant General] cparekh:
Downloaded the file. Will try when I go home. I am running Eugene's Frankin Twiz ROM based on the leaked JI6. It has the stock kernel.

I think, since I am going JI6 to JI6 and stock kernel to stock kernel, I can just Odin without wiping, without using the .pit and without first flashing back to the stock JFD ROM.

Does this sound correct?
[Vibrant General] DKM119:
just flashed the update 2:12 on Odin

Baseband T959UVJ16

ECLAIR.UVJ16

it went really smooth...

so far there are the hd camcorder,task manager and hd button on youtube also in gallery the pixs are from new to last...Media hub is working...
[Vibrant General] WarezAppz:
Initially the same thing happened to me (Silly me did a "Re-partition" - go into download mode and re-flash JFD-Stock (Which is what I did - made sure I did re-partition on that) then I was able to immediately re-flash JI6.

Hope that helps.

I'll skip the steps 3 and 5 right? And what If my phone can't go to the download menu? I'm running a stock vibrant.

Does root work?

yeah that happend to me once before...just unplug the phone the thing is that you'll get a phone exclamation point compute picture...so just go in to download mode and do it again.
[Vibrant General] MFHomeybone:
Flashing the firmware tar with Odin on my phone worked. Next time I'll skip the OTA and just wait for someone to provide the tar file.

That always happens to me as well, reboot and repeat the steps, it will work. It scared me one time when I had it happen six times in a row, so just rinse and repeat.
[Vibrant General] Raistline:
I have had Success. JI6 here I am. I will test GPS as soon as I can.

I did have a hiccup which scared the living **** out of me though. I accidentally unplugged my USB cable during my first attempt. Then got a flashing Yellow Exclamation point. Re-flashed and it came up perfect.

A failed flash is easy to recover from with ODIN. I now know. :D Thank you for your help guys. I could not have done it without you.

Another quick tip, turn off the vibrant first, plug it into the PC, then wait for the battery charging symbol to come up then try to put it into Download mode : holding volume up and down and then press and hold the power button, let go of the power button when the screen goes black, then it should come up with Downloading and the android guy with a shovel.
