After a suspended update to Android 2.3, Samsung has finally released (this time for real) Gingerbread to its Galaxy S i9000 handset.
The update first leaked out back in March. By mid-April, the 2.3.3 update came out in Europe but was then suspended due to some bugs in the release.
By first week of June, Gingerbread updates started rolling out in parts of Asia (Hong Kong got theirs around May 31 or June 1).
Don’t know which exact date the Philippines got Gingerbread but was able to update my Galaxy S yesterday without any problems. Just for up Samsung Kies (need to download new and install version and un-install old one) and get the updates rolling.
Anybody out there got their official Gingerbread updates for Galaxy S already?
how to upragde my samsung galaxy mini to froyo to gingerbread how to upradge
Good Day!
Is there a Gingerbread update for Samsung Galaxy SL I9003 here in the Philippines? I just installed Samsung Kies and it can detect the latest firmware but for whatever reason it cannot update the firmware on the phone, it keeps on disconnecting.
I wasnt able to update through kies so i just brought my phone to samsung service center for the gingerbread update.
where is it? :( mine is still not updating. My kies version is already 2.0.1.11053_99
Phone details as follows:
Model number: GT-I9000
Firmware Version : 2.2.1
Baseband Version : I9000XXJPY
Kernel Version : 2.6.32.9 root@DELL104 #1
Build Number : FROYO.RSJS2
ive been trying to upgrade my galaxy s to gingerbread…re-installed kies to the latest version too (2.0.1.11053_66_6)..
but the latest firmware that comes up is still froyo..
what should i do? hope you guys help:)
The version of Kies that I’ve used was 2.0.0.11044_11. I’m just not sure if that’s the latest, because everytime I check Kies for updates it gives me a notification saying that it’s the latest.
thanks.^^
in the end, i had to bring my galaxy s to the samsung service center for the upgrade.
was pretty happy with it…until ive started encountering problems with my contacts.
sim contacts are not recognized anymore by the phone…i dont know what the problem is.:(
and..all the contents of my globe sim card were suddenly erased. hay
will try getting a newer sim card tomorrow, dont know if thats gonna do the trick.
anyone encountering that kind of problem too?
