Hi everyone i was reading this guide over here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9375927
and they mentioned how to upgrade my vibrant 2.1 (JFD and JI6) to Froyo 2.2 (KA6). The problem that i have is that i bought the cellphone in panama (latin america) and no where in the information "about the phone" says something of JFD or JI6. I wanted to ask if i could use the same guide to upgrade my phone to Froyo 2.2 (KA6) STOCK or i needed to use a different guide?

First you should have these files to proceed.
Clockwork recovery : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/59531727/Clockwork Recovery/Update.zip
any ROM you would like to flash : there are two famous froyo ROMs as i know Moped Ryder's ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674519) and Fishman's ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441976)
first download the update.zip and place it on the root in internalSD
Download 2.2 ROM and place that inside the internal SD
Power off the device
Since u r in froyo bootloaders use VOL UP+VOL DOWN+POWER key combo to enter into recovery mode.. <U can make a nandroid back up before flashing b/c its better be safe than sorry >its blue color at the moment
after going to recovery mode select Tab down to Reinstall Packages and click it. Let it run. If it gets back to the Blue Recovery, you might have to do it again. This will install the CWR that you put on your internal SD. The recovery will go from Blue (stock) to Green (CWR)
Now Wipe Data/ Factory Reset, Wipe Cache and go to advanced and Wipe Dalvik-Cache
then, come back and select Install from SD card and choose the ROM file u have inside SD
after choosing the ROM it will be flashed and device will be rebooted
voila

Hi,
I have the Samsung Galaxy Europa (GT-I5500) and I'm trying to update my phone to 2.2 (Froyo) through Kies and It says that this version of the device cannot be updated.
Current firmware version:
PDA:JJ6 / PHONE:JG3 / CSC:JJ2 (XEU)
On about phone:
2.1-update1
Baseband Version:
I5500XWJG3
Kernel Version:
2.6.29-perf
[email protected]#1
Build Number:
ERE27.XWJJ6
None of this flashing lark though as I haven't a clue how to do it and I would need very very specific step by step instructions etc and I really want the Legitimate 2.2 firmware.
Please help as I really want to update my phone to 2.2.
Any thoughts?
Cheers
Andrewsean85
Doesn't matter, my father used Odin to update my phone to 2.2.
No one is going to help you here, I was in a similar situation, you have to download the firmware 2.2(Froyo) that belongs to your Product code and flash it with Odin to get rid of that Kies error. Just look in the stickies.
Regards
odin is the best way just f**k of the kies it just gave me the same error but i used odin for updating
ya same here just let kies jump. use odin

flashing is simple, type into youtube 'i5500 2.2 tutorial' and have a look at that video, shows a step by step way to flash, and has all the files you need.

thanks. =)
I got same problem, did you get answered?
If your reason to go back to factory condition is because the phone is being returned for warranty purposes, then you need to know what ROM was on it when you got it. Warranty returns should only accept the ROM it was supplied with or official updates of the same ROM. If it was a Orange UK ROM, then they will only accept a Orange UK ROM. Branded ROMs and Samsung (unbranded) Stock ROMs are in the Original Android Development section on here. Also the Custom Counter would have to be reset.
If the reason is just to get back to a Samsung Stock, then go to the Original Android Development section on here and find the ROM that is for your region.

Please read Intratech's Official Firmware thread here => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
At least the two first posts are relevant to you.
To check, what Firmware/ROM is officially released by Samsung for your region, you can use Check Fus Downloader from here => http://fus.nanzen.se/.
P.S.: You do not need the repartition option in Odin.
If you want to be sure to have a "clean" stock ROM on your phone, just go into recovery mode (Volume UP + Home + Power) and choose to make a factory reset after flashing the ROM.
Good luck !

What do you mean by choose to make a factory reset after flashing the rom?
I have the same problem..but whenever I am flashing the official fw downloaded from Intratech's post, I got failed..I am not sure what's the problems. I tried a few roms from there, every thing just failed and my phone now show a triangle icon which cannot be booted. i Have to use the usb jig to erase the downloading information, then flash any kernel to make the phone reboot then it can be only booted into the rom before flashed.
can someone help ??

Try re-download the firmware with your PC antivirus off. I had trouble with Kaspersky corrupting the download (no warning either, false positive).
Then try flash with Odin again.

Hey guys,
I'm a real noob at roms, rooting etc but i followed a tutorial on Youtube which lead me to root my phone using Odin and Superoneclick. I have no idea what this did as i didn't notice a difference on my phone but now ICS is released for my Galaxy SII which is TmobileUk branded. However, when i check on Kies, it says New Firmware Is Available but when i click Firmware Upgrade button then nothing happens. When I click Firmware upgrade and initialization under tools i get the error GT-I9100 does not support initialising. When reading on forums i found out this is because of me rooting so i searched on how to unroot Galaxy S2 but everything comes up with Unroot and installing Stock Kernal etc but i am not sure if i have installed a kernal but i can remember i put XWKDD file in ODIN.
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband Version: I9100BOKF1
Kernal Version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513 [email protected] #2
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.BOKF3
and i have no MOD VERSION which i fugured is for a rom.
When typing *#1234# i get these versions:
PDA: I9100BOKF3
PHONE: I9100BOKF1
CSC: I9100TMUKF1
I have read some posts and found UK Tmobile have BOKF3 etc from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113928
but i do not know what todo with it.
Also i just installed an app called Ginger Unroot which has unrooted my phone so if i need to root or do anything can you explain please and will any of the steps wipe my phone (apps, data etc)
I really need this help
Thanks in advance
RE
Im real desperate
What most people do one they root their phones is install ROMs based off of the official release. It's like getting the release, and guaranteeing root access. I think that's a better way. You have more freedom. Otherwise, you can upgrade and pray that Samsung doesn't release something that breaks your rooting capabilities. Check the forums for a ROM based off if the official OTA update and install that. If you have a custom recovery installed, (Which you should have if you rooted correctly) add far as I know, the update won't work.

Hey there thanks for replying Can i find out if i have a custom rom or kernal as i dont know but i did unroot by an app called Ginger Unroot and checked with basic root checker which confirmed that i no longer have root access but the error still comes up. So if an OTA Update is released, then can I download that?
