Firmware Upgrade - Galaxy S I9000 General

Im sure that this subject has probably been covered before but
My galaxy, when plugged into Kies gives me the message that the handset cannot be updated. The versions installed are:
PDA: I9000XXJF4
Phone: I9000XXJF3
CSC: I9000TMUJE6
My question to all of you is, is there an update to this firmware and how do i upgrade. The network provider is T-Mobile UK...
Thanx in advance

No there is no official update from Samsung, we are all waiting for the froyo release. So you cannot update officially until now.
But there are leaked testfirmwares like JPH or the newest JPK. Look at adroid development. There you will find downloads und tutorials to upgrade to these leaked testbuilds.

The latest official 2.1 update is JM1 which has been out since August. I guess T-mobile have not released this update for t-mobile branded phones.

thanks for the replies
I have seen another Galaxy S on T-Mobile UK using the JM1 firmware. The only difference was the purchase point for the handset, mine was direct from a T-Mobile store, the other came from the Carphone Warehouse...
t-star

carphone warehouse handsets are generally sim free with no network restrictions so thats why it will be on JM1 using a firmware released from samsung
Tmobile as of yet have released no new firmwares

A friend of mine has JM5; he hasn't upgraded for sure. Too ..... U know

I haven't seen where Samsung has issued a firmware update. Someone tweeted to expect an update soon, but that's about it. I have the same version as you, but the differences may be because of different manufacturing dates.

[Q] Lollipop update on S5

Hi all, Im not sure if im posting in the right section, I am new to forumns, I have a samsung galaxy s5 G900F, I am in the UK but cannot get update for lollipop via samsung kies 3 or OTA. All it says is latest updates already installed. My samsung was bought in italy but was unlocked to all networks. My build number is KOT49H.G900FXXU1ANG9, is the reason it is not updating because its from Italy and that I have to wait for Italy to release their update?
Well, yea if your ROM is Italian then you need to wait for the Italian update
Or flash a UK ROM, in which case you might as well flash the stock Lollipop ROM from sammobile or here XDA
Yes, your rom is italian no carrier, in italy for now lolipop was released only for some carrier(Vodafone and H3g)
Thanks for your reply, I am searching for the UK ROM and found BTU - is BTU for no carrier? also do I need to Root my phone to install the ROM?

hi people
long time no speak need some help..
when i brought my note 4 (back on 4.4.4) it was a branded 3 phone and after the second day of owning it i flashed it to a official samsung 4.4.4 to get rid of the "3" branding.. anyway after the lolipop update came out my phone never asked me to update and always stated it was on the newest firmware (even up to today)
so i installed the 5.1.1 lolipop update via odin and the "3" branded stuff came back.. does anyone know where i can download a official UK unbranded 5.1.1 don't like all the branded bits

Currently there is no official UK unbranded 5.1.1 firmware, there is only Vodafone and Three branded firmware.
You will have to either wait for the firmware to be released or flash repackaged firmware which will install unbranded firmware and keep your current CSC.

which region is the best to get monthly updates?

Hello,
I am on BTU and still on April security patch. I bought an unlocked phone to get updates faster and everyone is getting the patches faster than me. Even the carriers (tmobile, att) are releasing the patches faster.
Which version should I flash to get the patches in a regular way? BTU sucks.
Thank you.
what region are you in ?
did you check out sammobile, they post regular updates as soon as they are published.
you can download them and flash with, odin, twrp flashfire.
I am in Europe for the moment.
I am on BTU no root

I live in the UK. I was also on BTU and bought the phone unlocked. I changed to H3G United Kingdom (H3G) as I was getting sick of there being no security update since April. I am also unrooted. To be honest I have not noticed much difference in the software, apart from the bootup screen. Last Samsung phone or tablet I'll be getting.
Same here
Also with H3G United Kingdom you have more regular monthly security updates?

It's more regular than BTU updates, and you're right BTU stinks
