[Droid X General] eris_evil:
Is there any way to get rid of this restriction with the zip files and other files as well.
[Droid X General] windscape:
Hi,

I don't know of a native method of removing that restriction, but the free app Byte Tornado downloader integrates with the browser and allows almost any file to download directly to the phone.

I hope that helps.
[Droid X General] zehkaiser:
Down Droid on market. Just a download manager. Nothing else.
[Droid X General] eris_evil:
Awesome thanks I used byte tornado
[Droid X General] stacyadell:
download Astro from the market or appbrain then you can download zip files and extract the apk files from the zip. It's also a great utility app to manage files and backup applications.
[Droid X General] amathophobia:
I use opera browser to download files. It how's never given me any problems.
[Droid X General] genericmessage:
Sadly the stock browser restricts a lot of downloads: .zips (and many .apk's if not all).

Probably there to "protect" itself.

But any third party web browser

(Dolphin HD or Opera) can do those kinds of files.

That is if you don't wish to use a download manager app.

Hope this helped someone!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dangrayorg:
I can confirm that if you allow Kies to auto update the official Froyo release is not available to you if you have upgraded to the Nortic JP6 via the registry hack.

This is a holding thread to allow users with this issue to upgrade when a workaround is found or to notify when Samsung enables JP6 -> JP0.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] salmanslick:
i used reg hack on my DBT sgs , now i m waiting on official update .. i changed my product from xee to dbt (default). would i have to downgrade ?? to get official froyo ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Frostfree:
Best to revert to older version of Kies and use these registry settings

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\DeviceDB\4]

"SoftwareRevision"="I9000XXJF3/I9000OXAJF3/I9000XXJF3/I9000XXJF3"

"ProductCode"="GT-I9000HKDXEU"

"HIDSWVER"=""

"DEVCONINFO"=""

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\]

"LocalVer"="1.5.3.10103.100"
[Galaxy S I9000 General] microtriper:
Where can we get the older version ?

EDIT: Found it but can't post (new user)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] plutoniumdragon:
Thanks Frostfree that worked :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Taomyn:
Possible reghack workaround....

I've been trying a reghack workaround for the newer Kies but it's not quite there.

What I'm doing is making sure Kies runs without any request for admin rights (Vista/Win7) then make the same changes needed for the older version, but just before hitting the firmware check again I modify the permissions to the key holding the values i.e. Right-click 1 or 4 or whatever yours is. Choose Permissions, Advanced, edit the one for your logged in account and tick Set Value on the Deny side. Press OK to save the change ignoring the warning but don't close Regedit so you can easily set this back.

This seems to fool Kies enough that it can't re-change the values back without the application crashing (tried the same at a higher level in the registry and it did), but I keep getting an error about the unable to connect to device server problem when it tries to check. I tried the DEVCONINFO value change as well - no better.

Fortunately I have another machine at home with the older Kies, so I'm going to try that tonight, but I thought I should throw this out there in case anyone else has better luck.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
I am offered the upgrade but get not sufficient battery warning then it closes when I click update.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ice_coffee:
Just as a quick heads up for those manually editing the registry the ("") marks in frostfree's info are to be left blank
[Galaxy S I9000 General] K0v4L:
I had same problem. You have to add "HIDSWVER" same as software revision. After that my problem about unable to connect with server gone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Zajec5:
There is what I perform:

1) Open update dialog

2) See info about no update version available

3) Close dialog

4) Edit: ProductCode, SoftwareRevision, HIDSWVER

5) Open update again

6) Kies overwrites my register changes and displays info about no update available again

Isn't this the case for you? Did you do something differently?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BuddyLee:
same here ... how to sort it out ... i have 85% battery remaining.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] endisforever:
used older version of kies and reg edit and upgrade comes up just fine i am getting low batt error but will update later as my batt is quite low at the moment
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
Several of us have the same problem and that is with full batteries so do not put your hopes in that with a full one it will work. It probably will not.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Zajec5:
OK, so with newest Kies reg hack does not work anymore. Check http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php...ies#Installing_firmware_for_different_country for howto.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] apollag:
Does not work

followed to the letter. but kies says version cannot be upgraded.

....so that's it. few hours late again. reg hack hacked again.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
For those who upgraded to the Nordic firmware when it was available via the reg hack and had their product code changed to XEE instead of the original one (XEU in my case) this

does not work

The latest Kies only offers the Nordic version which is not fully functional for those in other countries as it is customised to the XEE region.

Using an earlier Kies with the newest reg hacks using the original product code does make Kies offer the correct firmware BUT it stop and says the battery is to low even though it is full. So there is no way to upgrade via Kies for us.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Zajec5:
Did you try with ProductCode ending with "XEU" and HDISWVER older than the newest (Android 2.2) one?

Like:

GT-I9000HKDXEU

I9000XXJF3/I9000OXAJF3/I9000XXJF3/I9000XXJF3

?

Note: do *not* use "I9000XXJPO/I9000OXAJPO/I9000XXJPP/I9000XXJPO" as it's already the newest and Kies surely won't offer upgrade.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nicolas1979:
I am in france and did JPM xee update a few weeks ago

I have upgraded to JPO this afternoon in 10 min without problems....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
Can you tell me what your productcode is now? Is it still XEE?

Kies only offers JPA not JPO to me using _100
[Galaxy S I9000 General] endisforever:
update now worked ok batt charged to 70% official froyo yay
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PPeterC:
I'd previously updated using the XEE reg hack, and the latest reg hack with XEU (without updating the the latest Kies version) has allowed me to upgrade to JPO, with no warnings about the battery level.

But the problem that was previously there with contact addresses still exists - you can only enter numeric zip codes, not alphanumeric postcodes. Does this problem exist if you've gone straight to JPO from an original 2.1 I wonder?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] :
So you still have an XEE productcode then? (check in the reg)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Hero Yu:
Where do i enter these code? I'm really not computer minded a simple guide will really help me. Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PPeterC:
The registry still has my original product code, GT-I9000HKDORA.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Zajec5:
http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php...ies#Installing_firmware_for_different_country
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PPeterC:
It might be safer if you search for a thread that tells you what to do in a bit more detail :) , but the short version is :

Start Kies

Run Regedit without closing Kies

Expand HKEY_CURRENT_USER

Expand Software

Expand Samsung

Expand Kies

Expand DeviceDB

Underneath this, there'll be a number of folders, you need to find the one with the keys mentioned (i.e. it might not be the folder called "4")

Then you can change the values and try to update in Kies again.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Hero Yu:
Follwed the guide, changed the values ect finally understood it, but Kies is now saying it cant connect to server, what did i do wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Hero Yu:
HAZA! looks like its working now, thank you gentlemen. Its updating to JPP, I THINK... i'll let you know how it goes :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Zajec5:
It looks like server is denying access to your version of Kies. Did you really, really changed LocalVer to "1.5.3.10103.100" (without quotes)?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Hero Yu:
OK update done! baseband JPP Build XWJPA FROYO!

This is the right Version right?

I love you guys

BTW im missing Google Nav application is this normal?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BuddyLee:
I had to do a factory reset to get the update working.

*2767*3855#
[Galaxy S I9000 General] :
JPA is the Nordic JPO is the UK so it depends where you are.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PPeterC:
Navigation was still there after I'd got JPO.

Can you download an update from the Market?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] :
Well I'm resigned to the fact I am stuck on JPM now.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BuddyLee:
factory reset.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dvdbos:
This is not working for me :(

Edit: this is, indeed.

:)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Val3r10:
It should.

Try changing your correct DeviceDB\# number within the registry path
[Galaxy S I9000 General] :
Didn't really want to do a factory reset as I will lose all my apps. There is a lot to re-install. SO have done an Appbrain backup and going to bite the bullit.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] HungLikeAMidget:
As Zajec5 pointed out in a previous post, make sure you're changing HDISWVER to an older setting like

I9000XXJF3/I9000OXAJF3/I9000XXJF3/I9000XXJF3.

Also make sure you're definitely changing the following:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\]

"LocalVer"="1.5.3.10103.100"

I missed this step first time round and was confused as to why it wasn't working. Once I changed it, no problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Valinorian:
so anyone have the older version of KIES for download??
[Galaxy S I9000 General] HungLikeAMidget:
I used version 1.5.3.10092_14.

I can't post links because I'm a new user. But go to Google and search "samfirmware samsungkies". It's the first link.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Valinorian:
ok so older versions then the _82 also work? I checked samfirmware but thought the older ones wouldnt work.

great, thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] HungLikeAMidget:
I'm not sure if any version will work. But I can tell you for sure that that version worked for me on Windows 7 x64.

If i leave the settings page w/ the Home button, checking the setting shows that it has changed to "Unknown" and seems to stay that way if I exit in that manner.

If I exit the page using the back button, the setting reverts to WCDMA Preferred.

Hi, hope someone can help. First sorry about my english!

This is what I did. I tryed to unroot my phone (get it into repair). I tryed several RUU, and some gave me error 110. Now the phones only start with HTC logo and 4 triangles.

I had Hboot 0.80, suddenly now its 0.83.

I can boot my phone from cammandline (WINDOWS) with the command "fastboot oem boot". And it starts up fully functional. But when reboot or try to flash RUU it shuts down (normal) and boots with the triangles and HTC logo.

Is my phone bricked? Please help!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Schnitzel77:
hi dude,

it had the same problem 3 days ago. i tried to unroot my phone and it stopped at the system install process and there was only the screen which you are on at the moment.

so, here's the solution to solve the problem: (dont have time to explain more)

-Search the Forum for the "PB99IMG.IMG" file for the Desire. Download it.

-Copy it to the root of your SD-Card.

-Start the Desire with vol-key-down pressed and power.

-The ZIP-file should start a little menu where you can restore your system.

-Now you should have an unrooted Android 2.1 System running.

-Now just use a normal RUU Exe File to Update to Froyo 2.2. (Shipped ROMS or from Forum)

(if something goes wrong (failure numer, etc.), just try again)

You now have a unrooted Desire with warrenty again. ;)

Works like a Charm....
