Sorry your majesty, I know you believe you are an important person (since this is now the second post you claim is urgent), BUT people who urgently need to use their phone don't use pre-production firmware.
Downgrade your firmware. JPC is BETA. Use only final/production firmware, and stop installing betas. Lots of people are having issues with JPC..
AND STOP POSTING EVERY QUESTION AS URGENT!!! What makes your questions more important than anyone else's?

As you may know, KIES will let you download official updates only if the "SoftwareRevision" and "ProductCode" match
I've made some registry files which will let you upgrade without manually editing the registry.
it's pretty simple:
1.connect your device to the computer
2.open KIES
3.load the desired reg file
4.try to update (some versions need "Test Mode" to be turned on)
if it doesn't work:close KIES, delete HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung and then try again (KIES will rebuild the values, this time your device will be in number 1)
currently there are reg files for the following firmwares:
JM1 (product code XEU)
JM2 (product code XEE)
JG8 (product code XSG)
please add more combinations
Where i can get the product code for Bulgaria ? my phone was with JF5 stock but i flashed JM1
EDIT: Deleted XXX trick, needs more research !
love this! kies upgrades are much easier. Now i dont have to reinstall all apps and settings.
upgraded to JM1
when i used the XXX trick, only JFA was offered

Hi, i have JF5 firmware and wish to know which file i install from the rar file included i am in the uk.

Stick this thread.
can you explain with a little more detail the point of this ? surely you dont want to be downloading foreign firmwares or am i missing the point

I'm from Israel, there are no local firmwares so I must use foreign firmwares
The "point" is to make a database with combinations of product codes and firmwares
some people are more comfortable with KIES (although I prefer odin) and this just can make their life a little easier when upgrading.
one more advantage when upgrading through KIES: your data isn't lost (but only some times which I haven't figured out yet)
I too vote for stickying this thread, knowing working combinations for firmware files would be of great help for my upcoming Kies upgrade helper tool

Would the xeu have danish swype etc?
Does it work in normal mode in kies?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
ok, well i cant even get into test mode, any ideas why? id really like to play with this some more but Kies is that bad lol.
im CTRL+ALT+U+P
nothing... Kies software itself is the latest version, and i didnt even install the latest one because it didnt work i got hold of an old version, that the reason? because its the latest version i mean

FUS_TEST from 00000000 to 00000001
Cool, this upgrade-"hack" works, I run the XEEJM2-file, and Kies enables me to actually upgrade to JM2.
It downloads the update, the phone restarts to Download-mode, but then I get an error-message on the PC, regarding Binaryloadermgr.exe failing. First it was because of a rapi.dll-file, then when I found the rapi.dll file and put it in the right directory, it gave me another error-message..
But all this might be because of Win7 x64...
Should try on a XP machine too
thanks.
I succesfully upgraded from jf3 to jm1.
can anyone tell me if this trick will work for froyo update as well?
So let's say if samsung releases froyo at the end of September and I follow exact steps as shown above, will I get upgrade to froyo instead of JM1?
Also what does JF3 and JM1 all mean?
I know that they are different firmware versions available but how do you know which one is the latest?
I think J means 2010 and M means perhaps August?
Cheers
Are you saying that using this method I can upgrade to JM1 without going through this flashing stuff? At the moment I have JG5 with Kies telling me "Your device cannot be updated"
Hi community,
just switched from Symbian to Android, so I've got to learn a lot.
I am a German living in China. This brought up some problems with my brand new Gal S2/9100. When I try to update it (kies) tells me it is not possible for this firmware. I also can even not register an account at Samsung with the telefon. It seems that this Shop sold me a "branded, modified or cracked " Phone. However, I learnt here I can flash my phone.
As I am in China, most "up load" servers are blocked, I cannot access them.
So I need urgently the help of you guys. Here my DATA:
PDA I9100XWKE7 : CSC I9100 XEU KD1
Build: Gingerbread XWKE7
But but but: I wonder if I could get an European CSC Package with the latest KF2?
thats the data;
I kindly ask the community to give me a chance to download all that stuff through a one time FTP connection from someone's PC. Just use Filezilla FTP server.
I could do it in the night in order not to disturb you. We have 6 hours time shift. So, my morning is your night.
Or any other server to download all the stuff (firmware pack,including ODIN)?
Hope you don't let me down, I hope i can return this effort to the community one day.thanks in advance
Robbie
Would the following Suffice?
XXKF2
This package has: PDA:XXKF2| PHONE: XXKF2| CSC:XEUKD1.
MultiCSC OXXKE2:
Contains the following CSC: AUT, COS, CYO, DBT, DCM, DNF, EUR, FWB, KOR, LUX, NEE, OMN, ORG, ORS, PAN, PLS, SEB, SUN, SWC, TMS, TPH, VDH, VIA, VOM, XEE, XEH, XEO, XEZ, XSK.
Which servers can you access in China? I think you can get Hotfile / Megaupload.
Go thru this thread for more information.
We all get this message when we are up to date like you are. It is also normal that you cannot register a samsung account since samsung hub is not for the UK (you are running. UK firmware)
thanks for the quick answers
since some weeks almost all servers including (hotfile and upload) are blocked.
that's the problem.
So, I learnt I do have a UK firmware, that's ok to me. However, the shop put a lot of Chinese stuff as system apps on to the phone. I cannot uninstall it.
I also can not install any emails except GMAIL ( which by the way works great on the S2) so I have to use K-9 Mail as client the build in widget is buggy and crashing all the time. Also my phone gets quite hot on the backside close to the cam, when I switch it off and on it gets cool quite quickly again. I couldn't figure out what application is causing this.
I talked to a SAMSUNG guy here, he said this bug is fixed in the latest firmware.
Samsung was aware of the "getting hot issue" but does not tell what the reason was.
Summary: I think now, the Chinese screwed up the phone by mixing various stuff from different countries on a UK phone. They told me it was imported, what ever that means in China.
The only solution to me is to put my phone back to the original status quo.
I tried to /su and found out the phone is not routed.
May be they rooted it and put on top of the UK firmware all that Chinese stuff, then unrooted it again. (if this is possible).
Would really be nice, if I could download may be the original firmware package from someone. By the way, I also can only access the Chinese apps android market. This is really horrible. I do speak Chinese and read the basics but I prefer English/German or Spanish software.
Hope this gives you a picture of my situation.

If you tell me the files you need, I can host them on a server that's not blocked by the GFOC
If you can see www.villainrom.co.uk, then you can get to the files
yes I can see this page. Seems to be ok.
I will try to find the files in the next 20 minutes and let you know.
If you could do this for me I owe you something........
thx

OK if you show me the files you want, or even describe what you are after, you can download them in a few mins. It's 100Mb/s anyway so it will be fast for me to get them.
firmware pck
so here we are:
as Mr. sileshn above already said: the XXKF2 package with the multi CSC should be ok. I also need the flash software ODIN to flash the phone.
However, if you could find the original package would be nice.
again my data: PDA:I9100 XWKE7 CSC I9100 XEUKD1
at the moment I think KF2 is the latest firmware, isn't it? I understood that the KF4 is a beta and unstable and not officially released.
So any KF2 firmware with CSC for UK or Germany is fine for me.
thanks
rr
PS:
I feel quite nervous as I used to be an experienced Symbian user, but new to Android. I also have no Idea about LINUX so all the technical terms and actions are new to me.

Hi, just for your info: Download worked great, thanks again.
The bad news is that my phone got screwed up.
I couldn't identify why. I followed exactly the rules on how to flash this phone.
After uploading the files to the phone ODIN gave back the message: FAILED, write operation failed.
My phone hung up ( a little picture appears with a phone and a PC when I restart), it can not start/boot any longer. Of course after the "failed" message I waited long long time in order not to interupt any process. However one time I had to stop it. All efforts to flash it again did not work.
I am quite nervous now, hope the shop where I bought it can fix it.
They told me they will try. Hope to report better news tomorrow.
rr
short report
thanks again for the help.
The download worked really great.
The bad news is, that i screwed up my phone.
I followed exactly the routine for flashing with ODIN.
It is not that difficult to understand.
But ODIN uploaded the files to my phone and then stopped during the writing process.
"FAILED" was the message I got.
I waited long long time in order to make sure I do not interrupt any processes.
Then I had to disconnect my phone. After restart it was hanging with a little picture that shows a phone and a pc screen. I tried all I know to get the phone back to life but nothing happened.
So I brought the phone today to the shop where i bought it in China.
I hope they can fix it.
it would be good to figure out what was going wrong. Firstly to learn, secondly to help others to avoid this problem.
I believe that it may have something to do with the fact that they sold me "modified" phone, I mean it was a UK PDA and CSC number but a lot of Chinese stuff in the system. Not installed as normal apps but as system apps.
So they may have changed the partition and modified the firmware.
But I checked before, the phone was not rooted.
That's for your info only.
I thank you again for the prompt help you gave me.
If you have an idea what was wrong pls let me know

That's only a soft brick.
You can fix that by reflashing. You could try flashing via Heimdall, but it's not something irreparable You can get to download mode as usual
I've tried to reflash. no success, same error. However, I hope they fix it for me and If they put on a standard firmware with standard CSC, I should be able to flash in the future.
I did this with my N8 and my N900 many times and never something strange happened.
So, I guess it is an experience for me.
As I have to learn I wonder, if there is a hacker bible or flashing bible for android out there?
Did you learn all by doing or did you have some literature?
More tomorrow when I got back my phone.

Hello,
I want to dev-unlock my device, but since it's possible only if phone's OS is 7004 or 7008 i need to downgrade.So i have a few questions :
1.My phone's info right now is:
PDA: i8700 XX KB3
Phone: i8700 XX KB2
CSC: i8700 VVT KB3
Does it make any difference which rom i flash? Can somebody, please, tell me which one is the right for me?
(i wanna end with the same ( original ) rom if possible, since i havent got any problems with it)
2.If i flash different rom, and update my phone afterwards, will i end up with the same pda, phone, csc or?
3.Do i void my warrenty doing this?
Thanks in advance, generally i need help choosing the right rom for me..please guys, help, i am sick of being the only one with locked device in these forums
I flashed my device back to 7004 a couple of days ago.
I got the ROMS from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131891
I think the one you want is the one which corresponds to the VVT CSC.
Thanks for the answer, but as far as i managed to understand, these are a bit old roms - mine's KB..which means 2011 feb, this is the thing i wanted to ask - if i flash old rom and get updatesh through zune will i end with the same firmware like now - KB3
Yes that's what happened to me. I checked before flashing. I think they were all KB3s. I might be wrong. I flashed with the old rom, unlocked then updated via Zune. Once updated to Nodo, the it was Kb3, kb2 and kb3 just like you have above.
thanks for the info again, mate! very helpful! Last question - do you have any problems since you flashed? like 3g or network connection?
I had the ebook crash on me when resuming from lock screen. But that was the first boot after update. After restarting the phone once more, I haven't noticed anything wrong. 3g and wireless seem to work fine. phone and sms goes through. apps work like normal.
i have a galaxy s which i flashed to remove t-moble branding, now not sure why but i can't get wifi working so want to go back to stock firmware. the problem is which is the correct version for me.
my phone is galaxy s gt-i9000 and was originally locked to to t-mobile UK. i'm looking on the stock firmware and odin guide but i haven't got a clue which one is suitable. i've also got a message in kies saying that 'your device does not support software upgrading via kies'.
please can someone advise me how to get the phone working correctly again? don't care if i have to go back to t-mobile branding as look as it works with wifi.
Hi Rincal...
first question.. did you have your galaxys unlocked to make it sim free by a shop or market seller.. if you havent.. this will cause problems, so make sure you get that done.. its about £15.
2nd) The latest stock firmware is 2.3.6.. the xda team have Eu stock ROM threads.. look in "development", but if you cant find it.. use this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1431596 - although i think there will be a newer version out now.. in the PIT folder, use PIT-512.
Here is a full abc flash guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139050
Follow it to the letter, this is how I learned.. even though Ive had no problems, you flash your sgs rom at your own risk.. make sure you read it through first before you flash anything and always backup your data 1st.
Please note: This is not my work.. please thank and respect the xda teams named in the threads.
If anyone reading this thread can give better guides or links, please point the way
Good luck

hi NightOrchid
i used a market app called galaxy s unlock to unlock it myself. it was working find after that, the problems started after rooting and flashing.
i'll try your suggestions and let you know the outcome. i've already tried flashing with a few firmwares but always have the wifi problems. should say that apart from wifi and kies the rest of the phone seems to work ok with other firmwares.
English is not my native language.. Sorry for my bad writting..
I have a problem upgrading my edge plus from Lollypop to Marshmallow. It happens that after upgrading via odin and going with the firmware that supposedly belongs to me (G928GUBS2BPF3_G928GUUB2BPE4_G928GUBU2BPE4_HOME.tar.md5) succesfully, the phone starts saying that the sim is invalid, and i have no possibility of having any signal. If you need more information ask please! For me, an user (Noobuser) that doesnt know anything about flashing, its really hard to know where my trouble is and give you the right information.. (I can use the phone normally without the chip.. but that isnt it function)
Please if someone can help, I would really appreciate, Its getting me mad, Its a very expensive phone in my country (Argentina)
