can't la, my kies are not showing any update. i check both phone n KIES version, it shows that with the latest software n version. what to do now?
Then sit and wait until the official update is released for your phone
Besides, there is no official 2.3.4 update, it's 2.3.3.
Or check the tutorials to flash inofficial ROMs.
There is official 2.3.4 depending what region......

If ur wise, just grab current stock gingerbread rom that official samsung malaysia offer via their sc from samfirmware, flash it via odin and change csc. Otherwise, good luck waiting if itll ever com to kies. I think by the time u got it from kies we here already enjoying icecream sandwitch.

Hello Mr.impatient
Indian official ICS will be released this week in Kies.So just wait 1-2 more days.
I will not comment about that Indian ICS which is already here in some thread.
Indian official ICS release will not come through OTA.
It will be only through Kies.

Odin is safer than Kies in my opinion.
You can TRY the "memory crash" method when using zergRush. Just open a ton of apps and exit using the Home button instead of Back to fill up as much memory as possible (at least over 500 mb used), then use zergRush.
I don't know if it will work for you or not, but it's worth a shot.
If not, just flash a kernel that roots for you, like CF-Root or Siyah.
How the hell does it matter when you get the update.
Its the same Samsung ****!
Id say stay on GB or use CM9!
But then again thats what i think.
I downloaded the stock firmware from samfirmware.com and the file includes a bootloader. I'm hesitant about using the bootloader so please enlighten me if I can flash the 3 files without using the bootloader as this may hardbrick the phone. Thnks for the quick reply.
Are you going from 2.2 to 2.3 or from 2.3 to 2.3??

Why do you want to take risk ?
If you are going from 2.2 to 2.3 include all the files, as the bootloaders for froyo and gingerbread are different.

Hey ^^ I'm guessing from your post that your phone has not been rooted yet, correct?
If that is the case, you will first want to root your device using this app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953 (I think its easiest)
Or you can follow the directions in this nifty thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028
Once you're rooted...I would suggest following the directions in the thread I posted above. Go DL titanium backup, backup all your apps. Download Rom manager and make sure you have a CWM installed. Then browse through our rom section and get yourself on Froyo to start. We have some awesome development for Froyo at the moment, and I would suggest you go with one by fishman0919 such as: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1769424
Be sure to read the "Noob Guide" that I posted thoroughly and come back and ask if you don't understand something.
Good luck!
I'm guessing we don't want to start down the Kies road. Just in case no one else warns you, don't touch Kies. I hard bricked my phone a few months ago using Kies after having used Odin umpteen times. Luckily Sammy was nice enough to replace my PCB for no cost. They probably won't be doing that for much longer, though. Stay safe and follow the steps in Xenoism's post.

Yes, as mentioned here. Don't go anywhere near Kies. Your phone will die.
And a dead phone is no kinds of fun, I assure you.

You can definitely run ICS or GB.
I personally suggest ICS since many GB roms are buggy and are no longer being supported.
If you want to jump up to ICS you will have to first flash this rom to your phone: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/get/jenkins/5269/cm-7-20120729-NIGHTLY-vibrantmtd.zip
Once you have this flashed, you can flash whichever ICS rom you want.
Remember when flashing any rom to do a full wipe. This is:
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache (under advanced)
and then flash your rom
Good luck!

Give him some props!
Thanks for the nod Xeno.
One thing for the OP to remember. Some GB ROMs require Gingerbread Bootloaders, as do *some* ICS ROMs. You will need to check the OPs of those ROMs that you are going to want to flash to see. If you cannot connect to a computer or as your OP states you don't own a computer, you will NOT be able to flash Gingerbread Bootloaders to your phone.
They are not CMW flashable and just flashing a CM7 ROM does NOT give you GB bl's. Only in Odin can you flash GB bl's. Just something to take into consideration.
