I am on the 3 Network(UK), my phone is branded, no lagfix, no root, im on froyo 2.2 oficial upgrade through kies.
Can someone please give me a simple step by step guide on how to upgrade to the JPY 2.2.1 firmware please, i have the 3 button recovery option btw.
Thank you in advance.
Simple: flash with odin (read the stickies...)

I'd go for a custom rom jpy based like docs or darkys and install through clockwork or you can go to samfirmware to download jpy and use odin to flash it up to you or just do as above and use patcher but jpy is definetly worth it.
The first time i tried the kies patch utility i got a messags saying there were more than 1 phone folders which threw me a bit, but managed to sort it in the end.
So now on ....
2.2.1
I9000xxjpy
2.6.32.9

Hi Kayno
Set the "Enable Spoof" to True
Set "Spoof product code as" to XEU from the list
Then click on the Write Regstry button in the bottom right
Thats all you have to do, then voila when you start kies and connect your phone you should have a popup saying a firmware upgrade is available.
Good luck

Also did you save the Rom through Kies. Was a bit confused when i read this part on the Kies Registry patcher thread.
By the way hows your experience with the new firmware been so far. Is 3G and WIFI working correctly. Have you tried the app market. Hows the overall speed of the phone and is gps working better now.
Sorry for all these questions but i just wanted to determine whether the risk of updating is worth it.
cheers
Thanks

No, i didnt save the Rom, 3g and Wifi are working fine but you will lose the My3 app because you will be basicly debranding your fone(if you are on contract), but if you start the default browser it takes you direct to My3 .
Havnt tried GPS , dont use it tbh.
The speed of the phone is so much smoother imo, im so glad i upgraded.
Hope that helps

Thats great news. Can you still use the three services though? Because i'm paying a lot of money for contract don't want to be losing my data allowance
Thanks for help again. I'm about to flash it. Fingers crossed.

Jaytwo,
My installation failed. Did you manage to flash it on the first go. I did exactly as you said. The thing is it finishes downloading in about 15 mins then fails installation. I also had the multiple folder detected problem. I clicked on ok on the registry patcher to delete the folder and re-started keys with the sgs connected.
The phone disconnects and after about couple of minutes is says Failed to convert to upgrade mode. Please try later.
Does anyone else know how to fix this? Am i doing anything wrong
thanking you in advance
Yes it flashed first time for me.
When the phone disconnected did you do anything?
I noticed when i flashed that the phone disconnected but i didnt touch anything and left it to carry on, it took a while but all went well in the end.
Try flashing again, just to check do you have the 3 button recovery option on your phone?

Hi Jaytwo,
I have not touched the phone when it disconnected as i remember from a previous upgrade to Froyo from Eclaire when it disconnected and then reconnected before completing the upgrade.
I have the 3 button recovery i checked it. The wierd thing is the phone did not reboot to downloading mode where the yellow android digging man picture appears. The phone stays as it is. I wonder whether samsung changed anything recently.
kingconnought, on the main registry patcher thread also mentioned he is experiencing the same problem.
Can anyone else help.
Thanks again
I dont understand why your phone will not go into download mode as that is part of the flashing process.
Try doing a factory reset through settings on your phone, then try flashing again, apart from that im not sure what else you can do apart from flashing thru odin?

I will try factory restting. See if is works although i will have to go throught the pain of reinstalling all apps again.
By the way did you lose all your apps and data after the upgrade?

No, thats the reason i wanted to upgrade thru kies as it keeps all your settings and apps, the only app i lost was the My3 one.

LOL... This will be my 5th time.
By the way i thought il tell you this. If you ever want to for God knows whatever reason re-brand your phone to 3 then select the H3G product code and it should Flash your phone to the latest 3 branded Froyo which is JP5.
If i have to resort to Odin then i might as well wait for 3 to update their version to 2.2.1 as im too scared to Flash via Odin as there is too many risks associated with it. Or who knows Samsung may decide to release another version which might work.
Thanks
I got a quick question about this subject. Ik have no experience without android firmware flashing. Do ik need to backup stuff like imei number? For when the **** hits the fan. And if so how do ik do that?
*edit
found the answer to my own question here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=723596

Thanks for all your help mate. I apreciate it

here you can find how to flash and here you can find all fw from samsung. But I don't recommend you use GB firmwares, they are development versions and have some bugs. The most stable and usable fw is XXKB3

You absolutely can. The Indian firmware is only because of Hindi or telegu etc language packs and yeah no one speaks modern Hindi anymore it's all English spelt Hindi. Like 'ye kya hai ' so XXKB3 is your perfect bet. Also the default language is Russian but at startup you can choose english or it does it automatically by selecting your region from SIM. Gl and safe flash

I think the problem is because of updating the rom without clean install... Maybe a clean install will fix everything...

Hi @andr3as,
Thanks for your concern,
I've already fix the problem, i don't understand how i fixed but i think it haves to be about the accounts we signed on settings>accounts
what interest is my n9005 is 99% functional,
For to be 100% the mobile data must be switch on automatically when i send or receive an mms, but for now i'm glad to fix this issue.
thanks again.

I had the same problem recently. A factory reset solved the problem for me. Just back up any data you might want to keep on the phone before you do it.
Once complete and the device reboots, it should bring you through the device set up procedure again with no problems.
