Just go to the nearest samsung service point and see if they can help you? You may end up having to pay if they determine neglect, but it'll be heck of a lot cheaper than buying a new one?

Cool. Can't wait, but don't want do install JPC, so I have to wait...

Here is the original post:

Will this be OTA or through that POS Kies?

So a full wipe? Is the Galaxy S not capable of OTA updates?

yay cant wait to kill my phone again. third time is a charm.

can we assume that this official firmware will include the PIT and other features that 2.2 suppose to have, and be as competitive as Nexus 2.2? SGS has been a nice hardware but with so many limitation on the firmware, hope those Samsung engineers really gonna fix it properly...

Forgive my disbelief but I don't think that will be released at the end of September.
Hope to have that damn copy paste issues resolved and contacts search straighten out.
But I think I'm dreaming.

[Q] JI6 Update... I'm still waiting.

It is now November and I still have yet to receive the update. Is there anybody else out there still waiting for the official update? I've wanted to replace the ROM for a while now, but I told myself that I'd wait till the official update came out. Well October has come and passed and I'm still waiting. How many of you are out there still waiting for it?

Why not officially push it on to your device with Mini Kies?

Hearing that froyo is on it's way soon so it may not be worth it but odin is easy and you can have stock ji6 today.
Edit: see above post as well.

That galaxy s is only for the 02 version which is i9000.

oh i'm sorry, damn i was to excited and i didn't saw the 02. well at least we have Eugene

OP, What exactly are you waiting for? An invitation? Even if your unwilling to flash JI6 via odin for whatever reason you can install mini keis on your computer and update that way.

I ran into many problem while trying to use Kies. Windows 7 just won't install the driver so I gave up on it. If a Froyo update is coming then I guess I can hold on for a while then.
I'm waiting on the official only because I want to have a back up that is using a stable official build. LoL I feel much better about it.

Thanks to all who helped me with this. I managed to make an old laptop running XP on it work and did the update with Mini Kies. So happy now especially since I can use my GPS correctly. Looking forward to what is to come for the 2.2 update.
Once again thank you all for the help.

That's what I ended up doing as well. I couldn't get Kies mini to run on my XP virtual on Fusion on OS X, so I had to dust off the old XP laptop...and locate and delete a bunch of hidden Spotlight files on my SD card OS X had put there. Turns out those file names had extensions that were too long for Kies to deal with.
Come to think of it, I never got the "automatic" Market update either (the one that lets you "update all" from a single button).

From reading multiple threads here and at AC, it seems a lot of people are getting an early start. Let's hope this trend continues for everyone who wants the official OTA.

Is it worth it over the EC01 builds? Are they the same thing?

Nope. They are similar, but custom rom is way better

I used it for a bit with no problems, besides the brightness bug but use screen filter and bam! I recently went back to MikFroyo just because I love to mess with the framework.
