Well then someone at O2 told them that someone from Vodafone told them that someone from t-mobile told them that someone from Orange told them that Gingerbeard will not look good on someone's face.

the version that I downloaded is Kies_2.0.0.11033_25

And according samsung.de this is dated 5.1.2011. So it is out for a while

Thats odd os the one downloaded today although it has a lower build number is dated ‎29 ‎January ‎2011, ‏‎23:11:02. The newest part is dated Feb14th.

When I download the update for kies it gets to the dowloading files part and is on 100% but carries on downloading past the 53642kb on something like over 233343 whats wrong with it? Also it keeps asking for internet connection and i click retry every so often? Is there anyway I can download the new version and uninstall the old one rather than updating?

i noticed that this new update is more responsive than the last at least they are improving their apllication

That's happened to me a few times since Kies was first released. The short/kindest answer is that Samsung developers aren't the best...

Ahhh worked perfectly cheers dude.

Samsung on facebook said you Need this Update to be able to Get the 2.3.2 Update to your Samsung Galaxy S, Vibrant, Facinate. The 2.2.1 Froyo Update not For everyone Only for Italy, Romania, Germany. 2.3.2 will be Worldwide but carriers will be Delayed.

New Download Available!!! Check your system update status

FYI Folks, I just did a system update check and there was one available...downloading it now.
Hope you all are as lucky!

If it is 1.86 then it has been out for a while.

Ok, now I'm panicking...it downloaded the firmware, asked me to install...I clicked yes and now I have a fuggin Triangle with an ! plus the android bot...WTF

No, it was 4.1.83.en.US
Do I need to unroot for it to install?

I am assuming your rooted? and deox? i would say you would have to revert to same procedure when 1.5.7 came out. Ie: restore bloatware/deox files

It downloads and reboots phone, it than starts extracting file and thats where it craps out.
K, looking at how to de-ox, new to android..only had this for 2 days.

Thanks for nothing liar. I have no update in NY. Also not to be a ****, but this should be in general unless your posting the sbf

Not lying...and if I knew how to do that I would...I was running stock rom, rooted and I had manually uninstalled some of the bloatware.
Anyone got a quick link to how I deox this?? no biggie ill look around.

I can say you aren't lying cause I am getting the message too. It says it is 1.83 but the weird thing is is that I am on the bell atrix but I used Seven's method to install GingerBlur so it says I am on att but I am actually on 1.4.2

Update is available OTA in Portland, OR this morning. 3 people in my office have the Atrix and we all had the update available this morning.

If your new to android why would you not like the rest of us READ the fourms before 1. Posting in the wrong section 2. Ask a question that can be answered by doing a little research 3. Root without knowing how to revert back. We are all here to help as long as your not a donkey!!!!!

The chat support told me this:
The software version 4.1.83 is already being rolled out. It will be released by batches to all AT&T and Motorola Atrix.

I was getting the same error, I think it was because I tweaked my build.prop . I restored my build.prop from a back up version and now the update is going through.
only things I modified were build.prop, sideloading, root. I'm able to update without restoring to a previous stock image.

[NEWS] Gingerbread update announced for Galaxy series including Tab

http://www.samsunghub.com/2011/05/16/samsung-announces-android-2-3-update-for-its-galaxy-devices/
Guess it's on its way. I'm wondering how the update will roll out to Wifi only versions or the tablets that aren't currently using a carrier.

Today i got a message thru Kies that i could update my firmware to gingerbread (although the message gave a series of numbers and letters). I tried to update my Tab, but after downloading, the installation of the new firmware failed. Could that be because i have my Tab rooted? How do I solve this problem. Your help will be much appriciated.

Agreed. Let us know if you have any more issues.

Thanks for your quick help. I will do a hard reset as i have stock rom witch i have rooted in order to make backups, use droidwall and Samba. Titanium backup can prove its use now :-D
Hope the upgrade will work, thanks anyway.

Its the same firmware.

Pardon me for the possible ignorant question, but how can I update my Sprint Tab since I won't be activating it on Sprint?

Hopefully, Samsung will push it over WiFi... If not, the good people of XDA will inevitably provide a ROM on here. You will either get it in a timely manner or have to hold your balls and ROM it (if you haven't done it before). Even if you have, it can sometimes be a scary procedure.
Short answer... Yes. Long answer... Above.

hmm any word on how far the update is? is it still only italy that got it?
Dont really wanna use odin to update our 120 Galaxy tabs (or the 300 that we are getting in ~1 month time).

The only qualm I have is loosing the phone function of the tab if we ever get a honeycomb update. I hope samsung provides an app for that.

I use sipgate with the sipdroid app to push calls over VOIP. Works well enough for me. Can send and receive calls. I am only on WiFi so I imagine, it'd work that much better over the 3G network.
As far as a possible release date? No idea... Their words are that they'll start mid-May through Kies in Europe and it'll feather out. Since Sprint versions don't work with Kies, it may up to Sprint to push the updates here (which may take a long while) or if Samsung is really aggressive, maybe we'll see it through them.
Since Kies is the main avenue of pushing it, I wouldn't anticipate it soon. May be worth following the Honeycomb ROM (DONATE TO THIS CAUSE) and taking the time to flash it. Then brag that you have cheap Honeycomb Galaxy Tabs for sale in your store.

I'm also curious about this, but perhaps it would be better in a new thread for people to post their country and a confirmation once it's available over Kies.
I've started a thread to list confirmed countries here, please add to it as and when it becomes available in your country: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1086484

Re-Roll out of Gingerbread

Anyone in Ireland get the Gingerbread update since its re-roll out on Samsung Kies??
Checking everyday but all I get is you have the latest firmware
Love the phone but pretty pissed off at Samsung with how slow they are to update the phones.

here we are stuck with 2.1 man, so you should consider yourself lucky
really....

its not a re rolout - they use old builds with some branding and new modems
at least that is what i can say about todays uk o2 ginge
that is jvh_jv3_jv2.tar so
good old JVH base (vodaphone had JV9)
JV3 csc i guess thats for uk o2 (vodaphones was JV5)
and some new JV2 modem in opposite to vodaphoneuk JV3
but asian ones seems to be made out of fresher build

Well from my limited knowledge, the carrier takes the update and adds their own stuff to the update. The unbranded updates from samsung come out pretty fast.
If it's your carrier you're waiting on, maybe theyre just taking their time

While I did get my phone from the carrier it's not branded. I have put other carrier sims in it and it worked fine. Think they forgot to brand my on.
Anyway with that in mind, it must be unbranded.
Just wish they would a get a move on.

Mine was Meteor (2.2), I'm on Vodafone though, had a hardware problem and sent it off for free through Vodafone shop, got it back with 2.2.1 (JPY) on it, Kieds never gave me the option to update from 2.2, my friend's phones are all stuck on 2.2.
Bought a JIG, read up on Odin and flashed 2.3.3 (JVB)...

Thought about doing the update via odin but wanted to keep to the offical kies updates.

So was I until I found a stock rom for my phone on samfirmware that I can flash with odin. So, any trouble - back to stock!

OK I've downloaded Z4root and I have a
Temporary Root
Permanent Root
I'm told that I can root and unroot with this app. Has anyone any feed back as I am not knowledgeable in Android whatsoever.
I'd like to root the phone then unroot it to get the Gingerbread update on Keis when it comes out.
I want to run OCLF as I getting a lot of lag issues

XXLRK is still 4.0.4
Downloaded XXLRK today on my german gt-n7000 in India. Still 404

The changelog for XXLRK
The large 24MB OTA update does not change the version of Android, but the Galaxy brings touch to firmware version XXLRK and the performance of the Galaxy increases note. The search will remain intact! But there is a slightly modified keyboard with large distances and significantly improved writing comfort

Will this OTA kill root access? or should I rather use Mobile Odin?

I did the OTA update altho i did see it in the samfirmware website as well .. i wonder, could this update also fix the brickbug samsung said would fix ? Altho i suspect they would make a big fuss about the update if this was the one which fixed the brickbug, eh ?

I have it. Its 4.0.4
However i want to root with cwm is there a cf kernel for xxlrk?

Anyone noticed in XXLRK, power_profile.xml is mentioning battery capacity as 1650 instead of actual value 2500? decompiled framework-res.apk and under res>xml you can find this file. I don't know if battery usage calculation can give bad result because of this? or is it ok? Anyone with advanced knowledge pls.

Asian 4.04 Update
Most of Asia received the update to 4.04 in the last few days. I am in Thailand but there was no OTA update but the update was on Kies. Since updating I am still wondering what it was supposed to do as I cannot see any obvious changes except that I have lost root. I thought it might be an update to keep us safe from the brickbug but who knows? Anyone able to shed any light on what the update is for?

I use the Thai stock ICS 4.0.4 but I don't think there are differences, but this is only a regional 4.0.4 update.
And I didn't see any post here describing something new in these end-of-july-stock-ROMs.
I kept root the long way (coming from GB rooted, and installing the new version with Mobile Odin Pro, adding Notecore 13 later).
When you switch to a safe kernel you do not have to hope for an official safe update anymore.
