UK I9000 official firmware upgrade

All,
I just got a prompt from Kies. There is an official upgrade! It offers JM1 firmware.

What firmware have you got now?

Stock - JF3

That's it? That's their fix is it? A beta firmware called JM1, where quite a lot of people have already updated to JM2 and JM5?
It does not solve a thing. The underlying problems still remain. JMX firmware merely dampens things down and is a bit more intelligent in drawing a path. It doesn't solve GPS stability issues, lock or anything else.
If this is the direction Samsung are going, then I think this sends a signal that the issue is not fixable and this is just a fudge.
Roll on October for a HTC Desire HD.

Hi All
I have upgraded to the new firmware but now i am unable to download some apps from the market place
I had myplayer on my phone before the upgrade and now when i search for it on the market its not there
Does anyone know why i cant see it my mate can see myplayer on his htc desire phone.

Ha, I bloody knew it would be one we've already seen! Unless someone can confirm this actually fixes anything I'm not letting it anywhere near my phone.

It makes sense that it's a previous leak, the official releases are always going to lag behind the leaks we get.
Presumably they thought JM1 was enough of an update and stable enough for release to justify making it official.
There'll be more, just got to wait

But this was supposed to be "We have a fix guys, yeah, we'll release it in Beta" kind of attitude.
It's not fix at all, just a flaming fudge.

No lag-fix at all? Very, very disappointed!

No one said it was a fix, just an official firmware update. Fixes will probably come out in betas first. Thanks OP for the info.

What waste the hours on 2. 1 where they should spend it on 2.2.?

hey at least they came through with their hold up to ship new inventory using the new ROM

1. how do I figure out what firmware I am on? ( not in phone status)
2. Do I have to instal kies to update it?

I dont give a damn for any Kies notification as long as its not about an official Froyo release. Not that we all wouldnt have it by that time on our SGS already...

Use the *#1234# code on your phonecall-keyboard to see what firmware ur running on.
Kies isnt the only way to upgrade ur firmware version, its just the official way. I've used ODIN3.

I am on JF1...is that older than JF3?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

Is there any way for us to know if this JM1 is exactly the same as the "unofficial" one?

It would be interesting to see if anyone could compare this official release to the beta release to see if any final changes have been made

Android 2.3 announced today by Google !!

http://developer.android.com/index.html
Google announced android 2.3 .. Is our x10 hardware compatible to host Gingerbread?

Once the bootloader is cracked for sure. But they'll have a hard time making camera drivers and they'll have to wait for Sony to release multi touch and reverse engineer it for 2.3, but everything else will be able to run fine.

Yes it was released and my oldest son's Motorola Droid on Verizon already has the upgrade installed OTA when he booted up yesterday.
Isn't it grand waiting for SE and AT&T to get their collective heads out of their asses and push an upgrade out that is two revisions and eleven months behind.
Pathetic.

Are you sure about that? The sdk was only released a few days ago

Just pried it out of his hands and sw info states 2.2.1. Must be a small 2.2 upgrade. My mistake. Still doesn't provide an excuse for the ridiculous delay w/SE & AT&T.

New market version

I just felt like complaining a little and wanted to know if anyone else is annoyed with the new version of the market. The ui took a little getting use to, but my biggest complaint is how screwed up the reviews of apps are. The most recent are not at the top like they use to be. Now its a mix of anything from a week to a year old. We can't make a decision about an app based on reviews of versions that are outdated. Sorry, just had to vent.
We're comin from a pure power source.

Nope I love it, it's the bees knees.. :-*
Sent From DEEZ

I hate the fact that it will show an update is available for the app however, unless you have multiple and can therefore click "update all", you have to wait at least an hour or two to select update.

Indeed. The reviews are the only thing I'm not liking. It doesn't even make sense. I like checking the mentions when an app gets an update and this totally kills it. There is no structure / reason to it.

I hate the fact text and background color is so similar. Also stars are gray on a light gray background, makes it look like theyre missing. Make em gold like they use to be.
Not impressed too much by it.

They must've fixed the reviews, now I see the most recent ones first and in order

It's fine; I have no issues with the new market and like the look better than the old market. Other than that, it is the venue through which I get apps on my phone so in that respect it has not changed for me.

I thought this was an OTA update, do we need to load the .apk file to get the update, or is pushed OTA

You don't need to be rooted. Just put it on your SD card and use a file manager to install it.

Well not sure what to tell you. I get one over Kies for my s3 what doesn't update because handset was modified. And when I check on my s3 I get no updates allowed because it has been modified. If I wipe the whole phone the update shows on my s3 but again I can't install it.

That's a really old release of 4.1.2. There are loads of 4.1.2 updates since then. That will be what you are getting prompted for. You're 6 months out of date.

I've been wondering when were they thinking about releasing this since the leak has been around since february (i think) and the S4 has been released already. But to be honest, I couldn't care less about those "features" for an update, all i want is multitasking fixed. Which i'm fairly sure we won't get. Samsung should stick with fixing the basics instead or pushing out mostly useless crap. Guess i'll stick with aosp and just get a nexus at some point...

That's not really the point.
Your point was Kies tells you there is an update and that it must be 4.2
My point is you are on a 6 month old release. Any update Kies tells you available is not 4.2. It is one of the 30 4.1.2 releases newer than yours.

I did think about that since i read somewhere about the extra sensors involved, i just thought they'd adapt or disable functions that really required them or at least do it in a different way that wouldn't need said sensors - there's software to mesure heart rate with the camera, which isn't the most conventional way and, to be honest, if someone told me before that was possible i'd most likely dismiss it as a prank app/gimmick, but i did see it roughly working
