Hi All,
I Needed official firmware for GT-I5503YKAINU (Galaxy 5 released in India).
It came with eclair 2.1 and officially it is available froyo 2.2.
Can i get official firmware of this or any one at least.
I had upgraded my phone to froyo from a firmware of Asian model 5500 and cant update it through Samsung kies.
Please help me.

I see the X10 is getting an update to 2.3 my question is I have a custom rom for 2.1 and am wandering if pc companion will update it or if i will have to debrand and reflash to old stock att 1.6 to get the newest update
First, you will not get the update running AT&T branded firmware. You need to be running the 2.1 generic firmware that gets the update. There are different theories on what regions/kits will get the update first. Global Generic is my guess, but unknown13x says Europe first.
Basically, don't do anything till the update is released. It's all speculative at this point.
Btw, all the gingerbread info is in the "sticky" thread at the top of the general section. Look there for future info, as this thread may get closed by mods.
For those who are running AT&T branded 2.1 or 1.6 firmware, here is a step by step guide for unbranding to global generic 2.1.A.0.435, which will get the official 2.3.3 Gingerbread update directly from PC Companion or SEUS when available......

Sorry to burst your bubble, but AT&T will NOT be updating the X10.
They are ONLY updating phones released in 2011 to Gingerbread.

Update it yourself:
I just got my Galaxy last week.
I see it is firmware 2.3.4
Has AT&T offered/sent the 2.3.5 update? If so, how do I get it? I have not seen any notification on my phone about it.
Also, I rooted my phone.
When I get the 2.3.5 update will my phone still be rooted after if I install 2.3.5 from AT&T?
Is it possible to update through Kies Mini? That is what I used for my Samsung Vibrant T959. But kies does not seem able to connnect to my AT&T galaxy s ii SGH-I777
OR do I need to root it again?
2.3.5 has not been officially announced.
the main reason for the update is the fix for the lock bug.
the 2.3.5 that is available im not sure if its leaked or user developed but its not Official.
Perception ROM is your best bet at the moment.

to my knowledge it is the only rom thats based off 2.3.5 and of course, like every other rom its rooted=)
I think we'll see more 4.0 roms sooner than we will any 2.3.5's if you want a higher os then flash CM7 and have 2.3.7
Hi, I just wanted to know what is the current official gingerbread version for galaxy S2. I'm currently on 2.3.4 but I see people got 2.3.5 or 2.3.6. According to Kies, it says I have the latest version ie ( 2.3.4). Am I not getting any updates ?

I'm considering getting one of these for my daughter from UK Tesco.com. I understand that the international version Galaxy S Wifi 5.0 was originally released with Froyo 2.2., so even buying a new one now does it come out of the box with froyo installed? Also was it ever officially updated to Gingerbread 2.3.X either OTA or by Kies or are there only custom gingerbread roms available?
Thanks

i got mine from amazon with GB which was officially updated by Samsung. if yours comes with froyo, then just do an ota update
I bought my Galaxy s wifi 5.0 from Amazon and it came with 2.2 and there was no update to 2.3. I had to flash a ROM to get 2.3 and then 4.0.4. If you buy the US variant it come pre loaded with 2.3.
The lastest firmware of the intl player 5.0 is XXLPL ( France )
Product Code: YP-G70CWXEF
Latest firmware: G70XXKPL/G70XXKPL/G70XXKPL/G70XXKPL

You can use Check Fus Downloader to download this firnware
in my optinion , this firmware + rj's kernel v14 make the device work like a charm , super smooth , better than any custom rom i've been used before :good:
Really? Mine lags like a sucker! I'm looking for a stock kernel to see if it works any better!
Gingerbread was released everywhere except the UK. However people from other european countries have given us the gingerbread stock rom, so you can get gingerbread easily.
Mine is loaded with 2.2 Froyo, but I managed to upgrade it to Gingerbread. You can always flash another ROM if you're not satisfied with your stock/current rom.
I recently discovered that my friends' S2 still runs on 2.3.4 and told him to upgrade his firmware, but Kies (2.6) doesn't recognize the device and the OTA updates only brought him up one version (2.3.5 now...). Is there an easy way to upgrade the phone to 4.x in one in a single blow?

Hi,
If your friend's S2 is GT-I9100, then you can easily update his phone to the latest official firmware from Samsung.
Head on to this link, which covers everything from installing drivers to flashing the firmware: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/samsung-galaxys2-i9100-unroot-official-jellybean-firmware-460777
All the best,
