Yes, if you flash JP5 you will lose your current firmware cause that one is a no-brand firmware.

If Kies say your phone cannot be updated it's because there is no froyo for your product code yet!

By the way you can backup your current product code and software revision using patcher 1.4.0.0 (Only 1.4 allow this), save your xml for the future and use it to return back to your original configuration when froyo will be available.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
When you flashed back to 2.1 what product code/CSC did you used?

You have to use a real and officially released combination of PDA, MODEM and CSC otherwise Kies won't see an update.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
You can update only using latest version of Kies!

Older version aren't supported anymore from samsung even if you hack the registry version! Kies won't find any update, so be sure to use the latest Kies and the latest patcher (so don't use xml files, select the product code from the patcher).

Will this work on branded and simlocked handsets, or do i need to unlock it first?

I'm on:

PDA: BVJM5

Thats Orange UK, fully bloatwared!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
If your phone is locked i'm not sure if it will be unlocked after the flashing.

I'm sorry.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] alom5:
if the phone was locked, it stays locked after the flashing.....although the branding on stratup now goes and the flashing S comes instead.

I had a T-Mob locked phone and thats what happened.

I have a question regarding the registry hack. I am on the Sasktel network and I used this hack and it worked perfect to upgrade to jk4 with the Bell spoof. Is there some way to spoof it again now that the Sasktel Froyo is out? They say bell is BMC and Sasktel is BWA yet there is no BWA option. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] bakeryboy:
Just wondering if someone could help with the question above. Sorry to be a nag.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] paddyb:
Thats ok, i'm not so bothered about it still being locked, but just wanted to make sure it wouldn't brick my phone attempting this on a locked phone.

Hi there. Running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. Whenever I run the registry patcher (I've tried versions 1.4.0.0 - 1.7.0.0) it crashes with the following error;

"Kies Registry Patcher has stopped working"

* Check online for a solution...

* Close the program

* Debug the program

If I show the problem details, the problem event name is "APPCRASH" and the fault module name is "KERNELBASE.dll". If I close this dialog, I then get another error which states;

"Exception ECException in module Kies Registry Patcher 1.7.0.0.exe at 000213BD. Array cannot be null".

I've uninstalled and reinstalled Kies, and also installed the .NET Framework 4.0.

Any pointers to get this working?

RegHack from JPP to JM1

Hello. I've already updated my phone to Froyo using odin.

Right now I have the XXJPP version.

For my product code (ORO) the software revision is JM1 ( this is eclair )

To use this for bootloader update, I need to reflash with Odin a JM1 firmware or I just use the reg hack and update to Froyo even if I already have it?

Thank you!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] vaibhav27:
Thanks a lot. It worked for me. I had upgraded to Froyo last week only to find that I could not unlock my galaxy on froyo. So I had to flash in JM1 rom to get back to eclair and then unlock. Kies was not accepting this to upgrade to froyo. With the registry patch it all worked smoothly and now I am again on froyo. Thank you so very much.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] PaleFX:
Did you select BMC under "Spoof Product Code as"???? must select canadian spoof code..

I select BMC but it only offers update to JH2 which is "Android 2.1 update 1" .. not the FROYO update
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] PIRATA!:
I'm sorry for the noob question: is this patch a MUST one for using KIES correctly, or is the last version available around just fine?

Thank you all.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Pegart:
No, you need this patch only to spoof/fake your product code to get an update that isn't available yet in your country if you're impatient. If you're willing to wait for an update you don't need to use it!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] cstamas:
Awesome work, thanks!

I have an unbranded hungarian SGS (product code: XEH, was JM2/JM1/JM1), no froyo at sight for us. So I decided to jump on the XEU wagon.

I did the upgrade smoothly, using this app and KIES, but this is what I noticed:

After upgrade (1st upgrade since I bought it, no ODIN/KIES hacks happened) product code went to "KOR". I changed it to XEU using preconfiguration (*#272*<imei>#), now the firmware and product code is "aligned". I hope at least.

Still, KIES without patch say "this device cannot be upgraded". I read somewhere in this thread, that if the firmware/product code combination is not known (or fw released for product code), this is the message that KIES say. But, I wonder, I did change my product code to XEU, and my firmware is latest for XEU, so why does KIES does not tells me "You have the latest firmware installed" instead? Did I miss anything?

Or I am wrong that with these tricks (patch and KIES upgrade to latest XEU roms, and changing the product code to XEU) I "converted" my phone from one targeted for hungarian market into one targeted to UK market? Is there something else to be changed too?

All I want is to be "safe" that on next firmware "hop" I will not need some heavy machinery like Odin or so.

Note: I have another "virgin" hungarian SGS (my wife needed one too :p ), so I am able to get some files from her's if needed. But I do plan to put JPX on her phone too, it is just lightyears better/smoother/faster than 2.1-u1 was.

Note2: no, stupid me, I did not backup /efs. But again, unlock codes not needed, both are unbranded devices...

Thanks in advance,

~t~

In my quest to resolve the FsUsbService64 Service Initiali Failed errors, I found a newer version of KIES on this website.

http://dls.scione-music.de/KIES/

Downloaded and installed Kies_1.5.3.10104_66.exe	20-Nov-2010 16:14	136M

and voila, no more errors !! Problem Resolved !!

However, I am not sure where this version come from as it is newer than official Samsung version.

However, the KIES registry patcher version 1.7 isn't compatible with this version of KIES. Can you make a patcher for this version ?

If you have USB driver issues, click on KIES pull down menu at top left and click on Driver Recovery. It should resolve your USB Driver issues.

Hi,

Thank you for this app, it worked fine on my phone, i could upgrade to xeu without problem.

I would like to compare my old firmware with the new one. I know what version I had (AUT : I9000XWJM7/I9000OXXJM4/I9000XXJM1/I9000XWJM7) but how can I find a previous revision code, so I can force Kies to upgrade back to AUT ?

Thanks you! :)

unable to update firmware in PRT network

Hello all,

1st of all, thanks to nodail on this amazing tool.

I have a problem using it and im in need of some help.

please note that im a noob so excuse my current little understanding.

I'm on the Israel partner (orange) network. with the firmware given by the operator, and this firmware is slow and quite crappy.

current version is: GT-I9000/2.2/JHJP8/PTRJP8/JHJP5/JHJP8

trying to update without the patch tool gives me the message "you have latest firmware installed". trying to update with the tool with the PTR presets show the message: "your phone can not be updated", however it shows that the tool works as it shows it have JP4 whereas, as I said, i actually have JP5.

Just for the hack of it I tried to change the preset to XEU, and this time, it tell me I can update my phone to JPY version. I didnt update as I didn't know if its safe to update with the wrong preset. can I do it? with I still have the option to enable Hebrew keyboard?

I dont care about hebrew interface as I dont use it, but I will need hebrew keyboard and hebrew support for internet browsing,email,sms etc....

please advise regarding JPY update using XEU presets in the middle east.

thanks in advance,

I am on Bell and can get the update but did not try it yet. I heard we mighy get it on Nov 15 so i am holding off for now.

If you want to try it yourself use this fix plus change the "model" in the registry from I9000m to I9000. I do not know the impact of doing so, so please use with caution. All I know is it will at least allow you to start the update to 2.2

Try to uninstall Kies, download the latest version again (Kies_1.5.3.10103_100_2.exe) and retry.

You should also clean the Kies registry settings:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\DeviceDB

delete DeviceDB folder.

Hi guys, I just used the procedure on a brand new Galaxy S just gotten from TRE (same procedure posted on androidiani.com) and it worked fine, upgrade to Froyo successful.

So first of all thanks and superthanks.

HOWEVER, the next day I tried to connected the phone to the PC again using the same USB cable and Kies and it does NOT connect, Kies just says "connecting device" forever (Kies is usable though).

PC reset, Kies reinstalled to unpatched, but still the same behaviour.

Anyone had the same effect? Any idea?

Thx in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nodial:
ambrossi, it's a Kies know issue.

You have to purge your device from files that have long names.

Using a program called "FileSearcherforKiesFix" mount your phone as a mass storage device and then scan through for long file names and delete those files.

Here's the link:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Zajec5:
If you see "Your phone can not be updated" message it can means two things:

1) Your Kies is outdated (it doesn't send MAGICNUM)

2) Kies Registry Patcher wrote some old version to registry

In my case, for some unknown reason, Kies Registry Patcher used "1.5.3.10093.82" as version. As I didn't want to hack version, I didn't care about it. However by downgrading version number in registry, Kies Registry Patcher made update impossible.

I simply changed version in Kies Registry Patcher to "1.5.3.10103.102" and then it worked.

Nodial: maybe you could post that in your post as some FAQ/Troubleshotting?

Also... I don't use Windows to every day use, so that wasn't obvious for me: you *really* need .NET Framework 3.5 for this application to work! Installing 4.0 won't help! That's crazy, Microsoft :/
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jujjk:
Sure, but I've tried every spoof code included in the patcher, and I still can't get Kies to enable me to upgrade to Froyo. It won't even work with TNZ or XEU or any other spoof code that worked flawlessly for others. It's just giving me this:

Model Name: GT-I9000

Current Version: PDA:JF3 / PHONE:JF3 / CSC:JF3

This device's version cannot be updated.

And then the Upgrade button is still greyed out. What could I do to try and fix it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kingconnought:

Hi,

I took the plunge and updated my phone to 2.2.1 using the kies reg hack earlier today cos I got impatient lol my fiancees is a vanilla handset and we did the official update the other day and the difference in response and usability is just sooo much better I couldn't wait! (No battery issues on hers for info)

All went well so nothing bad to report except one question regarding the product code.

Previously my product code was GT-19000HKDVOD and after the update it changed to KOR so I used *#272*imei#*to change it to XEU and installed everything and all is working as expected :)

Now my fiancee is home I have just checked her product code (*2767*4387264636) and indeed we both have the same but in the numbered bit [3] mode : ...........mine says Prod and hers says Test - I'm sure mine used to say Test before the update. Everything works, internet 3g etc etc I'm just curious as to what this means??

Anyone able to shed any light on it?

Now my fiancees phone having updated to 2.2.1 via kies the official way in part [3] says [3] Mode : Test and I'm sure mine used to say this before using the reg patcher to update my device.
