PDA -I9000BVJP8
Phone-I9000BVJP3
CSC-I9000ORAJP8
Build info 2010.12
So glad I waited for the official release.NOT.

I assume this is 2.2 and not 2.2.1?

Yes its 2.2. Waited months for it and kept it for approx 45 minutes.
Am now on (much better) 2.2.1 thanks to kies reg hack posted on this forum

Downgrade Galaxy S i9000 16GB UK to Android Eclair 2.1 from official Froyo 2.2

Hi everyone. This is my first ever post in my life and hope it will be helpful. I do appologize for my English if I have mistakes in words and sentences.
I have installed Android official Froyo 2.2 upgrade from stock Eclair 2.1 three days ago and I did not liked how Froyo is working (slow). So I decided to get back to Eclair 2.1 and apply RyanZa`s lag fix (and wait for RyanZa to make it work with official Froyo) as it was not working on Froyo 2.2 official (could not root it). I was searching today for the right Firmware version for me (I9000XXJM1) so I can use official upgrade to Froyo from KIES again. And I have found it(many thanks to everyone who helping each other and we all can find answers). I am not sure if it will work for all Galaxy S i9000 8 or 16GB, but it definitely worked for me (I have an upgrade message waiting for me on my last KIES everytime I am connecting my Galaxy S but I do not want it now ). I have uploaded all files you will be needed, see the attached picture as I can not put link in my post (rules of XDA). ODIN program and Firmware I9000XXJM1 in one file.
My phone is Samsung Galaxy S i9000 16GB simfree United Kingdom version I believe.
This is how I did that (how I learned from XDA):
1) extract all files using Rar or Zip to a folder
2) open Odin3 v1.3
3) check Re-partition box
4) select PIT file - s1_odin_20100512
5) select PDA file - CODE_I9000XXJM1_REV03_LOW_20100721_2206.tar
6) select PHONE file - MODEM_I9000XXJM1.tar
7) slect CSC file - CSC_I9000OXAJM1.tar
8) put phone in downloading mode - volume button down+home button+power button
9) connect your phone to PC with USB cable
10)you should see com port in ID:COM section in ODIN
11)press START button in ODIN
12) your phone will restart itself when downloading is finished
Congrats, you have now Eclare 2.1 and should be able to upgrade to Froyo 2.2 from KIES
It is not my work and honor, there much more clever guys out there then me, I just used they`s knowledge and want to have an apportunity to help everyone who need it. Maybe I am late already?
thx, was just looking for this,
I am glad.
z4root works fine with 2.2, as does flashing a rooted kernel (e.g. CF-Root kernel) using odin. Both are available on this forum if you do a search.
Oh, thanks for info. Will definitely try z4root.
heloo mate the files are no longer there, is there another way i can get hold of them please?
File no longer exists.... update please if possible
It is there. I did not remove it. I am sorry but I can not copy paste it here becouse of the XDA rules but I promise you they are uploaded and still there. See the URL on the picture above. By the way "z4root" is not working for me (SGS i9000 16GB FROYO.XXJPO simfree UK), it just never end to attempting apply root to the phone? was doing it yesterday more then 1 hour.
Ok .. go the files from samfirmware and downgraded from JPM to JM1. Did as you said with re-partition. I then did a factory reset on JM1 then upgraded via kies to JPO.
Just to be sure I get a clean install I then did a factory reset on JPO too.
Works like a charm... Now I can update via kies whenever they (if they ever) release new updates....
WICKED!
THANKS
Oh almost forgot.... I used a Samasung Galaxy S 8 Gig model from the carphone warehouse!
Thanks mate, finally done it, i typed in upper case according to the link, i had to do it in lower case instead. thanks once again.
Woked for me thanks, wanted rid of the Nordic firmware, will wait till the UK froyo is released.
Thasnks again
I am very glad that it works for you all.
I will try it tonight and come back with the answer. I'm from Romania, I have nordic froyo and right now we have the official version so I have to downgrade first
Hope it`s working for Romania as well but not sure. Anyway, good luck.
Hello,
Thanks for this, I downgraded from 2.2 (installed last moth using Kies hack) to JM1 but I still can't upgrade to official Froyo using Kies, it says cannot update this device's version.
I'm on Orange in Romania.
Could someone help? How can I upgrade to official 2.2?
Thanks.
NKProds - try downgrading to an Eclair version that was used for Orange Romania phones and please post the results.
1. If I make upgrade to froyo with odin can i make the same steps to downgrade him to 2.1? (because title say downgrade from official froyo who means from kies).
2. I have problems with camera (not open) and with scroll bar (not open) after i make download and install thetering from market(
I reinstall camera but problems stiil there. That is the final choice (downgrade-upgrade again from kies) to try something before to send to service.
I have problem. In downloading mode computer not regonize phone. HELP.
Open Kies and let it run in the background connect phone see if it finds drivers .

Thank you so much for this post, saved me hours of searching.

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?

Anyone got the Three(UK) Froyo?

According to the three galaxy s blog : blog.three.co.uk/2010/07/28/video-samsung-galaxy-s-on-three/#comments
Froyo was live on keis on Friday, yet it still isn't showing up for me
Current Version : PDA:JG2 / Phone:JG1 / CSC: JF2
Anyone else upgraded officially from three
I will check that at home tonight. Will let you know in a few hours time.
It may take a while to get around to everyone.
I would wait a few hours and see if the update appears.
No update for me.
PDA: JG3 PHONE: JG1 CSC: GPG
"The device's version cannot be updated"
Hmm - There seems to be an update to Kies though. Wonder if it's related? Downloading now...
Oh well, updated Kies and still no Froyo update despite it having been 'available since Friday'
Same thing here ... got excited by the Kies update thinking I'll have Froyo afterwards
We'll just have to accept that Three are incompetent
I spoke to a Three Tele Team , He told me that It was a Beta Testing and got Out Mistakenly , And he confirmed its not Live at this Moment and he also confirmed that its coming out this Week Definetly ... and he told That you people will like the Froyo Update From Three ...
I dono if they also have people there like XDA , who do Lagfix and other Fixes .... Becz My Orignal 2.1 Three ROM had no LAG no , problems at all ....
Ah well, another day passes and no froyo for me, darnit!
Mmm now that would be lovely -- a fast stable Froyo I do experience lag from time to time -- esp sometimes when receiving a phone call ...

I get that sometimes......usually after three bottles of wine
Not sure whether anyone in this thread will be able to help, but I've got a Galaxy S on Three and am wondering how it'll react when Froyo finally arrives.
You see, in a fit of frustration last month when Samsung said 2.2 was out for the Galaxy S, then suddenly said it wasn't unless you were Norwegian - I tried the Kies registry hack.
That caused weirdness with my phone, and ended up with leaving it only starting in recovery mode. Eventually Kies decided to reflash, and I seem to have ended up with some kind of unbranded firmware.
It shows up in Kies as PDA:JM2/PHONE:JM1/CSC:JM1, and says "This device's version cannot be updated".
Anyone know whether the release of the Three version of Froyo will fix this?
Thanks!

You wont be able to upgrade with 3 unless you get your old software back and the only way i know possible is by using the kies registry patcher.

Sooooooo....

Hey Guys, Just thought I'd share my Galaxy S story with you, if that's cool.
It's been 4 months since I got my Samsung Galaxy S and after a week of owning it I flashed it using Odin to I9000XWJM2 (2.1) and everything was fine (well actually my phone would always crash and it got very annoying, but it was still useable as a device) but I was still prepared to wait until the official Vodafone Froyo update arrived. So the big day arrived! I found out that Vodafone had released 2.2 though kies. My first problem was that I have a Mac and kies is a Windows only program (I used my friends windows pc to flash the phone the first time round, because Odin is Windows only too) so I contacted Samsung and they said take it into a Vodafone store and they'll sort it. I thought "great" and I took it in and they tried to update it. Only problem was they said it wouldn't work because I had flashed it and kies wouldn't recognise my phone so he basically told me to flash Froyo on the phone the same way I flashed I9000XWJM2 onto it previously.
So now I'm going to flash I9000XFJP7 onto my phone, just wondering if this firmware is any good and will it be the same or even better than the Froyo update that Vodafone have sent out? Is it also stable and does it improve the GPS?
Thanks for any help anyone can give.
Mav.
P.S. Just tonight my Marketplace has updated, and now I can update all applications at one with the update all button at the bottom, and I now have the related tab feature. I thought this was only for 2.2 phones, I'm only on 2.1.
Anyone?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S I9000
Flash the newest rom mate, it is XXJPU.
It's fast, unbranded and fast lol
and 2.2.1!
Cheers mate.

the official 2.2.1 NOW AVAILABLE!!!

where the hell is the official 2.2.1 update via kies without regHack, spoofer, ecc...?
Any news?
Thanks
Edit: now available JPY for XEU without spoofer xD
They arn't, the 2.2.1 releases are as of yet only leaked beta's or release candidates.
I'd rather have samsung take their sweet time making a solid update then releasing an untested snapshot that makes the phone even worse.

I think it's been released officially for some European countries, which is why people in other locations are able to 'reg-hack' to get it.
And the update(s) don't make the phone even worse - for most part, they are a big improvement over 2.2. WiFi battery drainage seems to be the only niggling issue.
yeah i connect my phone almost everyday to check in case there is FW update but JPO still the latest!! btw ithink most people with jpx are spoofing the Kies and end effect the phone doesn´t run as what we expect such as some setting doesnt work properly and lost a few of apps (this is from what i observe from the thread!) and on that reason i prefer to wait the FW update w/o reg. hack eventhough tired of waiting....but let give some time for a perfect-ish FW!!!

the update is not been released....who had already updated not use reg hack only for have XEU product code, but they use spoofer to go in kies test mode.....
Everybody update from a JPO XEU...i've this firmware, but without spoofer i can't get update....
Released officially for UK.
I'm using reg-hack to update to JPY via Kies since I'm from France. It works very well, best firmware ever.

yeah...now it's available!!!!! i have spoofer disablet and my JPO XEU see the update!!!! Great!!!!! xD
Ive got official update to JPY from JPO on Kies as well. Im gonna go for it
So many people leaving test mode on so much confusion.....
No confusion for me. JPY has been stubbornly unavailable (and I haven't resorted to the Kies hack) and today the update has appeared simply plugging in the phone.
I think now that it is safe to say that it has been "officially" released.
What country
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
UK/XEU
JPY firmware
Well i had thought it official before, no one was sure if it was put out and then withdrawn or they had left kies spoofer on or something else, so forgive our confusion. Good news though if it is and more people confirm that
This should be exactly the same firmware that could be obtained by spoofing, right?
Interesting. I hope there isnt much difference to the one that I flashed yesterday via the reg hack! Dont think i can really be bothered going through all of that again.
I'm in the UK with an XEU phone, and following the info in this thread I decided to try to update.
Connected to Keis and was immediately offered the update to JPY, I updated and it took about 25 mins, with no loss of data.
I've only been playing for about 10 mins but all seems good so far, only time will tell.
Thanks to everyone that have posted bits of info.
Downloading now for UK/HKDXEU, never spoofed or hacked
Is it out official in europe?
Or just the UK ?
I don't know about Europe.. but the 2.1.1 update on the cdma network was just to remove superuser and wifi..(verizon)
I hope its better for you guys tho.
