I have update to 8107 via Zune (disconnected method) and then KK2 Firmware whit CAB
I have Chevron unloched..... and Interop Unlock work fine
Unfortunately, I already got it. I updated to 8107 via .cab update but I received KK2 via Zune two days ago. I was windowbreak unlocked before that, and as Heatcliff said, I'm still unlocked.
Now, I checked by entering diagnosis code *#9908# that I still have windowbreak option in the menu, however does it mean I would be able to perform unlock again, or I'm blocked anyway?
Ok now you are unlocked....the problem is if you do a hard reset or restore the phone (lose unlock) you are blocked and you can not unlock whit Interop Unlock

OK thanks. Well, reflashing the rom is always an option right? If I do hard reset I will lose all my personal data, so reflashing won't be anything that will bother me too much.

UPDATE: Samsung seems to have pulled the update from their servers. I recommend using Odin to upgrade to JPM/JP6 instead of the method in this tutorial.
LOOK at what kies offers you before flashing if it's not JPM/JP6 then its not the froyo rom described in this thread.
Since some of the threads are buried and out of date I figured I would post this once more. Please read the whole post before flashing it can save you from a lot of hassles later.
Make sure your phone and network uses the same bands as this rom. In other words don't flash this on a US device that needs the 850 band since this rom is for europe.
****If your phone does not have a working 3 button recovery mode or if you don't know what that is then visit this link for more information before flashing your device****
I don't know if this is safe on branded, carrier locked devices.
This should be obvious but backup anything you don't want to lose.
First uninstall all lagfixes
Start up kies and connect your phone. Wait till kies recognizes the sgs.
Go to firmware upgrade.
If it doesn't report a JPM/JP6 upgrade close the upgrade window but do not close kies!
Go to windows start > run > and type "regedit"
Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Samsung/Kies/DeviceDB/
You will probably see a bunch of numbered keys (they look like folders) Find the key/folder that has strings that match your current firmware. So if you are on JPK look for that in the keys. If you have more than one galaxy S (it can happen) then match the imei with the phone you want to upgrade.
Change the following values so they look like this:
"SoftwareRevision"="I9000XXJF3/I9000SWC/I9000XXJF3/I9000XXJF3"
"ProductCode"="GT-I9000HKDXEE"
"HIDSWVER"="I9000XXJF3/I9000SWC/I9000XXJF3/I9000XXJF3"
No go back to kies and click on firmware upgrade again. You should now see the JPM upgrade.
Other info:
First boot can take a while so let it sit for a couple minutes while you stare at that glowing S
Doing this will not change your product code.
3 button recovery mode still works.
This won't wipe your phone's apps, settings, messages or SD card. (at least not for me coming from jpk)
It doesn't matter what firmware you are on we are just using the JF3 value to fool kies.
You will lose root if you were rooted. New root by Chainfire can be found here.
If kies crashed while extracting the firmware then try an older version of kies. If kies sees the update but still refuses to flash then try running kies as an administrator.
If your phone really hangs for more than 5 minutes at first boot then something probably went wrong. In that case start up in 3 button recovery mode and do a factory reset. Dont blame the registry hack, its kies that's the problem. As always flash at your own risk
If your android market is missing after flashing read the following thread for a solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=810230
If the phone flashed ok but the rom doesn't run properly, force closes etc, then you can try entering 3 button recovery mode and doing a clear cache and a factory reset. Doing this will wipe your phone.
If you have lost your data connection after flashing you may have to re-enter your APN settings. Your can find this information on your carrier's website.

Kies might not be able to modify a different filesystem than RFS. So if your lagfix for example uses ext4 then that could be a problem.
All I have done is change the firmware code and I am being offered JPM. So do you really need to change the country code as well?
I cant get this to work, been trying for the last 20 mins. It detects the firmware, starts downloading but crashes on "decyrpting files" every time. Tried on two different pc, one with WinXP 32 and one with Win7 64.
Is this just Kies being crap again? Or am I doing something wrong?
Last question. Does your 3 button recovery still work ?

Strange, what version of kies are you using? See if there is an update. I'm on win7 64 and have no problems. I have "run as admin" checked in the executable but i doubt that makes a difference.

Probably not, but it really doesn't matter, Kies overwrites those keys the next time you connect your phone.

1.5.3.10093_82 on Win7 64 and 1.5.3.10093_81 on WinXP 32, I thought about run as admin too, so I tried that but still same.

I'm on an older version: 1.5.1.10074_2 so I doubt that's the issue.
So the same thing is happening on different pc's? All I can think of is that you could try doing a factory reset but that will wipe all your data. You removed any lagfixes right?
hi, first of all a big thanks for the easy walkthrough (think allot of people were wanting this) just a few questions, have you applied the lagfix after the firmware update or does it not really need it??
if you did apply the lagfix, any chance you could let us know how you done that? (or just link me to the relevant guide)
ill be trying to apply the new firmware tonight, hopefully kies recognises my phone!
also is this ok to do for branded 8gb vodafone devices??
What happens if I can't remember what lagfix I used... Yes I know it was a stupid mistake :/

Yeah exactly the same thing, it starts downloadingand gets about 3 quarters of the way along the progress bar, then it changes from downloading files to decrypting files. Straight away the updater crashes and windows says the program is not responding, only option is to close. Dont understand it.
Is this just me guys?
I do have another machine up stairs that has an older version of kies on it, guess I could try that.
Just getting a bit worried that it's kies, and I wont be able to update to anything...god kies is pants.
You should probably add informations about band and frequency so that someone would check it before replacing it with a firmware based on different settings and be left with no data and such

Did you remove any lagfixes? It sounds like kies cant extract the files on the phone. You could also try a factory reset if you don't mind losing your data.
I currently have a i9000m on 2.1 (with unlock, root, and lagfix).
I currently have lagfix disabled with the "disable lagfix" method.
If I were to upgrade to Froyo 2.2, will it update both the Firmware and the Kernel?
(I want to get rid of lagfix permanently).

Yeah removed lagfix and unrooted just incase, just trying an older version of kies now. If not I might wait for the uk version, if that doesnt work I'll try the factory reset. Thanks for your help dakine.

I have not applied another lagfix yet, first I need root access.
Sorry I'm not sure about branded devices especially if they are carrier locked.
It was kies, just tried on a third Win7 pc but this one has kies version 1.5.1.10074_45 installed and its gone through the upgrade without crashing....so far.
Edit: Yep thats worked, I'd best not upgrade this version of kies!
Hi guys,
I rooted my arc using gingerbreak just to get rid of some bloatware. Then unrooted. Know I don't know wether I've accidentally deleted something I shouldn't have!?, but now every time I plug my phone into my laptop via usb, Sony pc companion isn't detecting my phone what so ever!
Is there anyway around this? Getting my phone back to factory state? I've tried a factory reset but no joy
Many thanks
you'll need to try to reflash the firmware. either using flash tool or SEUS.

Is it different the "Factory data reset" from re-flashing the firmware ????
After "Factory data reset" ..... my phone remain rooted (gingerbreak)..... If I re-flash the firmware can I return to "non rooted" mod????
@im_iceman .... Where you found Build 3.0.A.2.184 version???
TIA
yes..re flashing will restore the phone back to it's full out of the box state.. unless you've unlocked your bootloader? it won't do that... but suspect you haven't?

there are a few .184 firmwares on the dev section..

My understanding is that you can no longer use SEUS once the bootloader is unlocked, but not entirely sure.
exactly ... once unlocked bootloader, you can not relock ... for now .....
and seus will no longer be able to do an update on it....
@nsourtgr
try to reinstall HDMi.apk packages for solve your problem
I think you should install com.sonyericsson.usbux, I've frozen it and my imac could not see my phone anymore, after I defrosted com.sonyericsson.usbux everything was back to normal again.

Thank you my friend.... I tried .... but the problem exists!!!!!
The thing is that I haven't tried HDMI connection before gingerbreak... but I believe that gingerbreak caused the problem....
[Q].... If I flash the rom.... I know that my Arc will remain "bootloader unlocked" but what about "rooted"????
TIA

I think that reflashing the firmware, your Arc will not be rooted ...
do not know what does or does not gingerbreak(problem or not) because I've never tried ..... I rooted my Arc with system.img from binary and I never had any problems .....
Anyway make sure that HDMI was not a problem of your Arc ....

Your Arc can only be unlocked if you did ,following the thread in this section ......
bootloader was release directly from Sony ...
... so I think you don't have unlocked...
In this way you can simply updating your Arc with SEUS software

I managed to do a restore via seus so got that sorted!
I would recommend not to use gingerbreak, as I had loads of problems,
When opening camera I would just get a black screen, I would hav to reboot the device
My lock security option became disabled!!
And.... Pc companion wouldnt recognise my device!
Hi,
I got a new LG quantum from ebay today. The phone was in the basic firmware.
When i plugged into Zune, it got updated to 7008(pre-nodo).
After then, Zune starts saying that the phone is up-to date.
I tried the disconnect and VPN trick but none worked.
I found the stock roms .DZ files of MAR-11 in development forum?
can i flash that file to get nodo ? is there any other way. ?
Please help me ..
I have all the drivers installed and Zune software latest

According to the Microsoft Answers site, pre-mango releases are no longer being sent out. Instead, they are being included when the Mango release is scheduled to hit your phone. So, we just have to patient until MS decides 'our' phone is ripe for Mango.
Hey everyone
I have a P8 Lite ALE-L21C02B130 from Vodacom South Africa.
My question is, can anyone give me assistance on loading android 5.1.1 (BETA or Official ROM) on this device?
Bootloader is unlocked, but device is not rooted.
Any help with this query would be really appreciated.
Put in on a sd card and install as local update.
http://huaweifirmware.com/huawei-p8-lite
Here you can find B008(5.1.1) and through OTA get B010(5.1.1)

Can I go from B150 (5.0.1) to B008 (5.1.1) ? My model is ALE-L02......
No, you can't go from B150 only from B136.
Model ALE-L02 is the same as ALE-L21 they only use another freq so i guess it should be working.
So fron B150 we can go to B136? I have ALE-L02 too.
So this will work on B130 for sure, no other steps needed other than mentioned? @EpicBass
I'am not able to downgrade to 136a cause i have a single sim phone.
My device is also single sim so I wanted to know if this will work as mentioned in your post? @EpicBas
I'll try to fastboot the rom in a couple of days.
Used this:

It will wipe all your data because it needs a factory reset.

Hi, I am new at the forum. I know that are a lot of threads open at this time, but I can't manage to get a solution to my problem. I did an update with Firmware Finder, and this changed my version C432b160 to NRD90M test-keys. The problem is that my first version was VNS-L21 c02b122 Vodafone branded. Because of this update, I've lost all apps and my Bluetooth didn't work anymore.
I can't do a factory restore complete, I mean that the factory reset only delete anything on my phone, but the Bluetooth still don't work
Huawei customer said that I've lost my warranty, but I didn't made any bootloader unlocking or root to my device. Does anyone have a solution? A rollback without root? I should send it to service? Maybe the customer is wrong.
Sorry for my English, I'm from Romania.
Have you flashed oeminfo and custom.bin?
Nope. Just the update.app.
After the last update I can't access updater app from settings. The only way is using dload method.
