Hi nodial,

i could not resist.

Patched yesterday nite. :D

A bit of harassment cause no way to let it update my rom, continue saying "ROM cannot be upded" (maybe not same string, soz for searchers, but my kies is italian :p).

Finaly reinstalling kies and dropping regkey with DeviceDB all went well.

Not even a spot of worry for me. All perfecly going an fully functional.

The good thing was a merge of your first post with this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=853950

maybe you can integrate some infos about what to backup and the, i say, necessary wipes after the mod.

Anyway, thank you a lot. I'm fully satisfied. :cool:

Gran bel lavoro!!!! :D

Any idea's please??

Hi Nodial, Can you help in rolling back to Indian Froyo from European. I had upgraded to 2.2 using your tips. :) It will be grateful ... :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] enduro2:
Update failed, but why?

Hello Nodial,

I am sorry but I have to tell you that the Samsung server is not the reason for missing the upgrade to Froyo. I tried to install FroYo over the last 1 1/2 days, but it always failed.

Looking deeper shows me that KIES is setting up the connection, the download of the software works correct (seen in the network load which is constant over the download time). KIES then starts to decompress the downloaded sw (network load is going to 0 (zero)) and finally starts the item "actualisation". The connection to the SGS is opened, the mobile phone shows the screen with the "downlaod" message and the traffic sign in yellow with the working droid. Short after the mobile went to the downlaod modus, KIES is reporting that the connection is closed (the button in the top right corner of KIES, showing the mobile, disappears). Roughly 2 minutes later KIES is reporting that the firmware download failed.

I have a brand new mobile from T-Mobile, Germany, with the following coordinates:

PHONE I9000BOJF1

PDA Eclair.BOJG3

CSC I9000GDTMJH2

i am using the registry patch 1.6.0.0 and want to go to the XEU version.

No app is installed, no firmware download with Odin was made in the past. The phone is like delivered from the network provider.

Trying to switch manually (3 button method) to the recovery and the downlöaod modus works (at least, the download screen with the droid and the message appears).

Any idea how to contniue? What other country code than XEU should I try? What is the right one for Germany (middle Europe)? Any recommendation?

I would like it so much to have FroYo!!

Thanks in advance for any help and assistance.

3 Button Mode.

"PRELIMINARY NOTE:

[WARNING!] Do Not flash Any ROM (firmware) until you can get the 3 buttons DOWNLOAD MODE working, even with this Kies trick."

THis was your warning, I was wondering if I can test this out by trying to get into the 3 button mode? Once in there, how do you get out? Can I royally F something up?

Cheers

Godti
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
Hi Godti,

once you are in Download mode by pressing those 3 buttons you can go back to normal mode by pulling the battery out.

I know this sounds brutal but indeed works, me and all the people around here does it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
No there aren't differences.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
Sounds like download mode drivers isn't installed properly.

Put the phone in download mode using the 3 buttons combo then attach it to pc and check if the connection to pc is ok.

There is a solution so solve this kind of problem but i don't remember where i've read about it sorry.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
Hi patil.mangesh.v,

i already answered the same question to drfareed ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
I had in mind to add this function to the patcher menu since sometime when you attach the phone another folder is created in registry while the patcher works with the previous one.

erasing HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\DeviceDB folder does the trick.

I'll add the command to automatically do it on demand.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] enduro2:
Update failed, but why?

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Godti:
What should I set the Spoof code too?

Also will there be any complications when you spoof the software to allow the update? I mean Im based here in Thailand, bought the phone here, but I can not upload the update normally in Kies, so Im gonig to fool the program to use another countries code? Correct?

Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] rohan3:
Does this permemently change your product code on your phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
Yes, it change the product code accordingly to the one chosen.

By the way you can go back choosing your original one and flashing it again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
Yes correct.

Then in future you will have the possibility to update to Thailand if you wish by spoofing back to Thailand product code.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] _dsk_:
What a brilliant tool! I spent ages messing around with the registry and old versions of KIES to get updates and even though i managed it i probably wasted half a day.

This tool has allowed me to switch to other Froyo versions JPO to JP5 very easily!

Thank you!

How do I fix this issue?

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] rado7rado:
Could you please make xml file for slovenian GT-I9000HKDMOT if something will go wrong so i could go back to original.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
If the download started (there is a blue progress bar that indicates the progression) so if the blue line showed up your phone is upgrading so it would be better you doesn't disconnect it from your PC.

Sometime it happens that the download doesn't start even if the phone is in download mode so Kies just sit down at infinite.

In this situation you should:

1) Make sure no blue progression line is present in PC download tool and in phone.

2) Disconnect phone from USB cable

3) Take out the battery

4) Close Kies and all the update tools.

5) Reboot your PC

6) Put the battery inside the phone.

7) Retry the update.

Make sure that download mode drivers are installed fine in PC.

Aftermath of Froyo upgrade: more problems

Hi Nodial,

many thanks for sharing the Kies Registry Patcher. I wanted Froyo to be able to see videos on the web with Flash, and this was my only chance on a Galaxy S locked to T-Mobile UK.

However, it has created more problems than it has solved, and I would be grateful for any help/advice/opinion.

First, one of my main reasons to get this phone was the Mobile AP functionality, for when I travel abroad with a laptop and other WiFi enabled devices.

Mobile AP worked perfectly under Eclair. Under Froyo, other devices see a WiFi network but cannot log on to it (it's not a key issue, I even tried with no key by setting the network to "Open"). I have found almost nothing about this on the web, but a couple of suggestions that it is a known issue. Do you know anything about it?

With Froyo, supposedly it is possible to move apps to the SD card. Each time I tried this I saw an error message: not enough memory. This seems absurd, because there is hardly anything on the internal SD card.

I flashed the phone using the XEU spoof, just because most people mentioned it. It worked very well, but stupidly I did not back up the firmware that was in the phone. Now I have lost several Samsung apps, perhaps because I upgraded to a Froyo for a different territory.

Overall, the only thing I gained is the Flash plug-in, but the Mobile AP was much more important to me.

Just for that I would like to go back to Eclair, but I have no idea how to do it, or if it is possible on a T-Mobile UK SIM locked phoned. I would not know where to start with Odin.

Originally my phone was:

Baseband version

I9000BOJF1

Build number

ECLAIR.BOGJG3

The firmware was 2.1 update 1.

Do you think there is a way back, or a way to make Mobile AP work under Froyo?

I'm sorry to come up with all this stuff, but I am a bit desperate here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] davidmichael:
Hi Guys,

I am new to this board and new to the android platform in general. I got Samsung Galaxy S on Orange and unlocked it using a tool from the market place, so I could use my O2 SIM card. So far so good!

I have no problems connecting Kies to the phone, but every time I try to do a firmware update it say's I have the latest version and won't continue. Having read that Orange won't be releasing the update till around the end of Janurary there is no way I am waiting that long.

I also don't want the Orange bloatware on my phone either, want it using the stock android 2.2 release.

Here is the information extracted from my handset:

Kies Information:

Model Name: GT-I9000

Current Version PDA:JM5 / PHONE:JM1 / CSC:JM3

Handset Information:

Firmware Version:

2.1-update1

Bassband Version:

I9000BVJM1

Kernel Version:

2.6.29

root@SE-SE-S603 #2

Build number:

ECLAIR.BVJM5

This is a UK Orange Samsung Galaxy S. I am not sure I fully understand the procedure (like some of the above posters). When I do the 3 button "download mode" (when i switch the handset on), the yellow android picture comes up and say's "download mode". Should I be flashing the handset from here or should I have the handset in download mode when I launch Kies?

Also what product code should I be using to get an unbranded version of Android installed?

Thanks in advance guys!

David
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Vincent*C:
Here is an update to my situation, posted on the T-Mob forum. I answered another Galaxy upgrader, who CAN use Mobile AP as normal.

"Thank you very much for getting back to me.

Encouraged by your post I tried Mobile AP with two other computers. I did not think it would make a difference and it is still not working as it should, but there was a difference: unlike the first computer, these two could connect, but only if I used NO security. As soon as I entered a key, including one generated by an online generator, I could get no connection for either of these two computers. And I am sure I entered the same key correctly on each computer.

Meanwhile the computer I need to connect, my own laptop, still cannot connect EVEN if I use no security (which I would not do on a regular basis of course).

If you or anyone has any knowledge of what can be going on, it will be gratefully received.

Are there rules to follow to create the preshared key? One of the two computers insisted on certain types and numbers of characters, but even if I followed those criteria it did not connect when there was a key."

(1) I got my phone unlocked. If I install Froyo with this Kies patch method, will I lose my unlock?

(2) When I put the phone in download mode and plug it in, kies just keeps scanning it and doing nothing.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
1) No, you won't lose unlocking!

2) It's normal, Kies only work in MTP mode, it manage download mode only during update.

I've wrote to test download mode to check drivers; So, when in download mode please go in your Control Panel > Device Manager: Once there check if you have a "!" inside a triangle referring to the phone. IF so then you have to reinstall the phone drivers.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
I wrote to test download mode first because in case you change product code the operation is delicate so it would be better you know you can reflash if needed.

Kies send phone in download mode right before the update so no, you don't have to do it manually.

I don't know if ORA is Orange Uk sorry, hope someone indicates you the right choice; By the way yes, if you spoof the phone with the wanted unbranded product code you will unbrand the phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
To return back you can use local flashing with Kies or use Odin, you have the choice, both works.

Not sure whether Recovery Mode on my Galaxy S is working OK

As T-Mobile UK haven’t yet made an update to Android 2.2 Froyo available via Kies, I’d like to attempt the Kies Registry Patcher method to update my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S (Product Code GT-I9000HKDTMU). The advice in the original post on this thread is not to do so unless the three button recovery mode works on your phone, so I want to make sure that I’ve got the correct feature on my phone before doing this.

I can get into recovery mode by pressing and holding Volume Up, Home and Power, then releasing Power when the Galaxy S screen appears and releasing the others when the menu appears offering the following options:

a.	reboot system now

b.	apply sdcard:update.zip

c.	wipe data / factory reset

d.	wipe cache partition

However, when I press and hold Volume Down, Menu and Power I get a triangle with an Android digging and the message “Downloading – do not turn off target”. I’ve read in another post that this key combination should bring up a menu that allows for Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock, so I’m not sure whether I’m safe to go ahead with the Kies Registry Patcher method.

Can anyone please advise?
