Any news on Three (3) Froyo update on Galaxy S?

Hello,
I am just a bit curious. Most of the discussion around here did not mention about Three (3) network at all.
I am really tired on waiting for my Galaxy s update from Three...
If any news or information on Three (3) Froyo update, maybe we can discuss here or update here....
All of your help or news is really appreciated....
My phone details:-
GT-I1900HKAH3G
still in JG3 version

Changed Product Code
I originally had:
GT-I9000HKDH3G - (Three UK)
JF3
Updated it to:
GT-I9000HKDXEU - (Unbranded Europe/UK?)
JPO
Using the kies method ... I think to do it now you need to downgrade kies and then trick it into thinking it's already updated by editing the version string in the registry

I think he is looking for the official release through Kies. I would think by the end of November my friend. All networks have pretty much indicated this as has Samsung to a degree.
OPTUS I think from memory is supposed to be today.

How come you have JF3?
I am also from Three (3) UK, but I have JG1 and JG3...
I am trying to find out the information on the official update from KIES. I don`t want to root or trick the KIES to get an update yet...
I also heard the official FROYO update for Three (3) UK will be end of November, same as O2. But, O2 will give the update of Froyo earlier than expected. That is why tring to get some information.
Hope to hear from somebody about it...

There was a thread posted last week about froyo for Three handsets, but I believe that was referring to the general froyo release

couple folk in the thread you mentioned claim three has released froyo update but if you look on there site its definatly not available just yet. http://www.three.co.uk/Help_Support...SoftwareUpdate_show&content_aid=1220461902599

According to the the official Three Galaxy S blog http://blog.three.co.uk/2010/07/28/video-samsung-galaxy-s-on-three/ the update has been approved by them and they are waiting for Samsung to roll it out - they are unable to say when that will be.
Just keep checking I suppose.

Can you post the info from your Kies registry?

New firmware P1000JVJL1.. need info?

Recently a new firmware P1000JVJL1 showed up under the Arabic section at samfirmware.com, but it was confirmed that it was NOT an arabic firmware but euro instead.
So I flashed it just to feed my curiosity and it was true. Euro definitely, had Turkish locale too, but that uses normal English lettering.
http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-p1000.htm

Wow another firmware, who said samsung was slow on firmware releases!! I take it this is the latest version, notice any changes and did it wipe everything?

if i remember right, then is JV for the region
the following j for 2010
the following l is the month (were we have actually m in the jma version)
and the 1 is version one.
so i don´t really see were this firmware should be a newer one than xxjma

As far as I'm aware the M builds are test builds and not formal releases.
An L would indicate a December build, so it is quite possible it is newer than JMA.

jma was also released in december, so who says that is a newer version, and from where it cames thats an euro version? if it has turkish on board and english lettering, that says nothing. any other languages in?

Any chance you checked what the build date on this one was and what CSCs it includes?

I said that it was "quite possible" that it's newer than JMA, not that it is definitely newer.
Consider the following - JMA is a development build (we know this). At some point that development build will get completed and released, and when it does it ceases to be an "M" build and will follow the conventional naming sequence. If that build is released in December, it will be an L build.
It remains to be seen what this actually is, but we certainly shouldn't discount it based on there being an M build in existence.
Regards,
Dave

i´m downloading it. will see what it says on my tab and if the build date is newer than jma.
will report later....

Am doing the same now.
Should I continue?

The filesystem dates of the flashable files seem to indicate that JMA is newer, and the build numbers confirm that assumption: 759588 > 739553 (07/12/2010 > 01/12/2010)

you can stop it if you want.
i think this firmware is not newer as jma, as file dates are from 30.nov / 1.dec.
jma files are newer. for that i will not flash it to my tab unless somebody really proofes me that:
a) its a newer version,
and
b) its an euro-version.

Ok tried it
This firmware is for the turkish tablet and it doesn't contain the fixed browser (introduced in JM6)

Read the post just above yours (info extracted directly from mounted RFS filesystem).

Darn, was hoping it was the released version of JMA!

Traditionally, Milestone and Prototype are internal. However in the SGS series we have repeatedly seen them on "production" releases (yes, both M and P).
In truth it is now hardly possible to compare newness based on name alone. There have been instances where (x) has been newer than (z) as well. Not to mention the last character can only be compared if comparing to the exact same region and product codes.

Firmware - XX, XW, JPF, JPM, JPN etc..

Hi Guys,
I assume that in the UK, we can use XW or XX, according to, for example this website http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/archive/t-706422.html
Getting that out of the way, I assume that JPN is "newer" than both JPF, JPM and JPI
Is my logic correct? I gave up waiting for Samsung and KIES yesterday and just flashed JPN via ODIN. Can't believe I waited months, it's a vast improvement.
Share your thoughts!

XX= East Europe
XW= West Europe

Hi kyrillos, How's Greece today!
Ah ok! But how do you know that for certain? Have you tried JPI then? I know you appear to be the best custom ROM chap out there but I'm not ready to make that jump yet

I didnt tried JPI yet, because i dont have time to

Much better than England I'm sure!
I5800XXJPQ is just released FYI
PS do you know this?
Do you know why the bootloaders "brick" phones sometimes?
People remove the bootloaders from the tar files to avoid this, but aren't they updated versions and required ever?
ta, B

Gave up on Samsung New Zealand yesterday.. been waiting for months as well.. flashed I5800XWJPF_XENJP1_XXJP4.. I have no regrets.. using it in conjunction with ADW launcher Ex pro.. very satisfied with this firmware up till now..

Bootloaders can brick, because if something were to happen while flashing the bootloader you probably wouldnt be able to boot or get into download mode and flash another rom (which you could do if anything else went wrong)

Guys how can U tell which version you run ?
Here's a SS of my device : URL not permitted yet .
In the 'Baseband' section says XXJP4 , but on the bottom it is XJPL .
I'm interested (and frankly new to all this , even though I got my phone 4 months ago) in Kyrillos rom and someone told me I need a specific firmware version to install it .

Is the stock JPM bug free? Like is it stable and does everything work properly i.e data,camera,player etc...
Please reply fast. I am new to flashing and I have thought of flashing this ROM. This would be my first ever.

Regarding latest U.K Samsung Galaxy S

Hey guys sorry its been a long time on the SGS thread. I wanted to ask something quickly (need a quick response for my friend)
What is the latest OFFICIAL stock U.K (via Kies) firmware out for i9000? is it 2.3.3? or is 2.3.4 out yet?
And also has there been a final final stable version of Cynogenmod7 out for SGS too?
Thanks don't have time right now to search through threads since I'm out of the country.
cheers

Read the latest news on GSMArena. 2.3.3 is official current version from Kies

Swap FW for official one [BRAZIL]

So i've got an Galaxy SII here in Brazil, it's from Claro and strangely has the HKE2 BASEBAND, HKE4 Kernel.
I read somewhere that 2.3.4 was already avaliable if you had Sammy's retail FW, not Claro's modded crap.
By the time i got home to download it all the post had been removed so i missed the opportunity.
If anyone could point me in the right direction i'd be damn happy!
As far as my knowledge goes i remember reading that swapping from this "custom" to the official would not violate EULA nor my warranty, and that i'd be able to do it without having to root the phone.

Go to the development section, there is a thread by, Intarech (spelling may be wrong) that thread contains what you are looking for.
Sent from my GT-I9100

@Achillies400
TY for the directions.
And a bonus here, i just found out i have a franken-phone.
Checking the Carrier-specific firmwares i bumped into some trouble lol.
My phone is from Brazilian's Claro BUT build is technically a Chillean version.
Check this out:
PDA: UHKE4 is Chile-based
PHONE: UHKE2, well, ok.
Now here's the interesting bit, the CSC is ZTAKE2 wich is NOT LISTED ANYWHERE!
Will i have trouble if i flash this one below?

I was using it, found no issues at all.
You can also try flashing UHKG7 from http://www.samfirmware.com to get Android 2.3.4
(Even more strange is that the page says it's from Brazil, but SamFIT says it's from Chile too.)
EDIT:
This is the same FW from samfirmware

Any special difference from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4?
'Cause i'm looking forward at 2.3.6 already

I've found some minor UI tweaks so far, nothing major.
About 2.3.6 I think it will take a while to arrive at stock roms, maybe sooner with CM7 or MIUI only.

Updated successfully!
No issues whatsoever!
tyvm dandroid13!

So...
No problems whatsoever with 2.3.4?
No 3g data on/off problems on UHKG4 modem? I read that some guys were having some issues on getting 3g data back on after losing signal for whatever reason.
Can you confirm that everything works fine?
I just got an SGS II from Claro and I´m thinking of flashing it with this ROM to get rid of all that Claro crap (and get some original stuff back, like GTalk).
Can you hint me with the specific thread on how to flash SGS II with this ROM?
Thanks a lot.

So, the UHKE4 rom i flashed as avaliable from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 (manual included there) is a 2.3.3.
Again, mine was bought THE DAY AFTER it was released here in Brazil, in late June so it has the hw version from Chile.
Aside from that it's all fine and dandy!

The major difference from the 2.3.4 FW is that you don't get Folha and Livraria Cultura apps.
