Samsung UK have just posted on Facebook that the UK Froyo rollout has started on Kies. Here's their full post:
"Samsung UK The roll out of Android 2.2 Froyo for Galaxy S has begun today, as some of you will have already seen. As previously stated the roll out will be completed in the UK by the end of November. To get your handset ready for the upgrade please download the latest version of Kies from the support section on Samsung.com/uk, where you can also find a video in the ‘How-To-Guides’ on how to download Kies and install Android 2.2 Froyo. http://bit.ly/cfjJDa"
...now going to check version numbers on my Kies...
EDIT: Also a new Kies version available: 1.5.3.10103.100 (which will NOT allow registry hacks to change product code / firmware version)
Also for XEU phones!!! XD YEAH!!!
Argh mines still won't update :\ 'this devices version cannot be updated'
I got an update today. The version is JPA/JPP. I updated using kies, from JPK. hope its the official one
Kies seems to be wise to the registry key hack to change firmware versions... at least it is ignoring whatever I set the registry to on my computer

Mine (XEU) is JPO/JPP
Can someone please post a non-Froyo OFFICIAL UK product code and HIDSWVER entry for me please...
Already on JPO won't let me update using Kies.

The update through KIES is version JPO if you're in the UK
I'm in Ireland, got the phone from Carphone Warehouse and updated via Kies to JPA/JPP today. Also installed Ya-OK-Kernel, which seems to work flawlessly.
Edith sais: I updated from JP6, deactivated all lagfixes first. Settings where lost, but all installed apps stayed.
Hey there, I just upgraded to Froyo through Kies.. How do I root on 2.2? I've forgotten how I did it on 2.1. :/
@ADeadlySpoon: Can you tell me your HIDSWVER and ProductCode from your registry please?

Not sure that's going to help, apparently Samsung has blocked the registry hack as of Kies 1.5.3.10103_100. Any manual code one might enter is immediately replaced by the real one upon restarting the update.
Here are some codes if you are willing to try too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7872726&postcount=3
Please see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=828504&page=22 if you have an update problem.

Thanks for this
HIDSWVER and product code are stored in the registry in Windows.
I know Kies has blocked this hack, I want to know the info for another reason (and I've changed the code on my phone and can't remember it's original one)

Just been to the HTC website and noticed a new OTA firmware update on there.
I don't have my phone yet so can anybody confirm what improvements this offers?
Cheers
great hopefully it will solve all or at least couple of issues the users had so far
Did a manual update and it said I had the latest ...
sadly HTC rarely do change logs.
Although it must be very minor as it's only going from 1.15.405.3 to 1.15.405.4
Where on the HTC Site? I cannot see it?
I wonder if this is a quick response to the rooting of the Desire?
I hope not!
I'm on 1.15.110.10 do I have to wait for T-Mobile to update the software or will it be pushed asap?

should be pushed ASAP.
go into status and try a manual check. bear in mind that if it's done like the other devices when they get ota'd, it may be done over several days. so you may not get it till after the weekend.
Yours should go to 1.15.110.11
This 1.15.405.4 is the ROM that reviewers such as Tracy and Matt had right? I think that was the number in the video.
Just have to wait to see how long it takes T-mobile to push this out now.
Oh, and orange devices would go to 1.15.61.10 btw.
i got it via OTA earlier today but as you all know, NO INFO whatsoever! looks no different however hopefully will improve the shocking battery life......
YEAH RIGHT!
It mentions it on this page:
http://www.htc.com/europe/support.aspx
Doesn't say what's changed though...
Have not noticed any changes myself, most probably all back-end stuff.
What's all this about 405 builds for HTC and 110 builds for tmob and 60 builds for Orange?
Makes no sense.
My tmob phone notified me of an update today, but at the time I had to cancel it as I was busy. Now when I go to manually check for update it says I'm already up to date.
So where did it go?
First option on the "About" tab manual update.
Will I need to have the T-Mobile sim in for it to find the update then?
I have the 1.15.110.10 on my t-mobile and it wont manually update for me at all
Is the Desire going to be like some other tmobile phones and you cant get the official updates?
I have looked on the HTC support site and while it does say there is an update, can't it be downloaded via the site too?

Build number has always been difference between generic and branded HTC devices.
I've don my update, can't see any real change though. Maybe a miner update.
Things are much smooth on my Desire then my Nexus one.
Just checked for any updates on my Desire and it said there was one available, it downloaded no problem it changed my software number to 1.15.405.4 sorry I have no idea what it was before it was changed.

Hi there!
I am a bit overwhelmed by the strange release order on samsung-firmware.com of the last "inofficial" (whatever) releases of the european i9000 firmware. Theres a JM1, a JM1 NEW, a JM2 and JM5. To make chaos complete Kies is offering me a JM1 as well, when entering test mode. What kind of JM1 would that be? The old one, the new one, or a total different one? I followed all the threats losely over the past month, but somehow lost track. A short guide is very much appreciated. Or, to put it bluntly, what F/W should I flash regarding stability, speed and gps? Or, just what the heck is the right order?
Thanks in advance,
Chicken
The JM1 New is the Version from Kies, so if you worry about warranty issues, you always should use KIES updates.
I don't know if there is a difference between JM1 and JM1 NEW.
I would recommend JM5. Stable, fast and everything works as it should.
I'd also recommend to flash the Samset rom after flashing JM5 and then the latest Lagfix. Your phone will be flying!
Well.. are you sure about that? Because I got JM2 from Kies, and it's different than the JM2 from samsung-firmwares.com...
I'm using DDJG4 and it works perfect and even better with lag fix and evo gps fix
JPJG8 is the best version I used so far! It also does not have the contact FC bug!
I bought my Galaxy S in Germany end of June
I got JF3 as Stock Fimrware
I Updated to JM1 over Kies
as i heard JM2 over Kies is only for branded SGS.
All other Fimrware Versions are from Samsung but not officially released (over Kies),
They are leaked Developer or Beta Versions.
The JM1 from Kies is diiferent to that previously leaked one from samsung-fimrwares.
So in th officially sight there is no chaos(for the firmwares).
regards
Christopher
Im on XXJF4 PDA XXJF3 Phone and TMUJE6 CSC on an unbranded and unlocked SGS and when i plug into Kies it tells me that i cant update my current version. I have tried other firmwares for samsung-firmwares and it still tells me i cant update. Does this device need to be put into a procific mode to update though Kies or is the no update for UK?

Great! When?
Unbranded SGS?
Unbranded SGS yes. Flashed it a couple of days ago.
BTW! This is the firmware info:
PDA: I9000XWJM2
Phone: I9000XXJM1
CSC: I9000XEEJM1
To determine the LATEST firmware look at the last three letters/numbers.
Assume they are in base 36 and then look which has a higher value.
All good?

I couldn't get any update running in "normal" mode.
This makes me rage...
I also have an unbranded SGS (Bought from Komplett), and Kies won't give me an update in test mode or normal mode. I really want this new - official - firmware.
Maybe I need an older version of Kies...
The "leaked" firmwares aren't beta or test firmwares necessarily (except the Froyo firmwares) - they're merely service centre firmwares. Samsung releases many firmwares, some of which have different firmware versions, but which may essentially all be the same, to their service centres but never makes them available for users to download.
To my knowledge, there is NO "official" UK update yet (via Kies). However, if you take your phone to a service centre, they may well flash it with a newer firmware than the one you have.
----------------------
When dealing with firmwares it is very important to remember that one firmware release (one code branch) may contain 20 or 30 or more actual firmwares. This is because of network / operator branding and language files. This is why the firmwares we're seeing for the Galaxy are XXJM5, JGJM8 etc.
Samsung firmware versioning works like this:
Firmware version i9000XXJM5 means:
i9000 = Phone model
XX = Country / region (XX is generic Europe 1)
J = Year of build / release
M = Month of build / release
5 = Consecutive number (so 5th build of the JM branch)
...what is interesting is that Samsung are using month codes which are over the 12th letter in the alphabet (which is L) - this usually means the firmware is a test / beta firmware, but the fact that JM2 is available to the public via Kies counters this.
When you take all these things into account, it becomes obvious that the JG and JM builds are all essentially the same, but just with different localisations / customisations for the languages / regions / networks they were originally intended for.
I should also add that any one "firmware" is made up of three elements; the PDA (phone code), CSC (branding / localisation / applications) & modem (baseband) code. That's why you will sometimes see different version numbers for each specific part of a firmware, within the one "whole" firmware version.

What FW version are you running now? I was running JM2 from samsung-firmwares.com when I tried through Kies.
Finally Vodafone DE released Froyo update, it's available on Motorola Software Update.
Could anybody share the SBF? Thanks a lot.
I thought, this was an OTA update?
I can see it on Motorola Software Update site (direct.motorola.com) with pdf description (Blur_Version.3.4.2.179.4.4.MB525VF360.DE.v8.pdf). Doesn't it mean that the update is also available on MSU ?
Am looking for the same for Vodafone España. Need to put official firmware on before sending the phone back to get the earpiece repaired for the second time.
Yes it is now available on msu, please upload the sbf.
Vodafone España Official Froyo sbf
German version still wanted.
Vodafone DE Defy Froyo
Hi @all,
Vodafone DE Froyo is available. My Boss did this update on Sunday over the air.
I make the retail update a few days earlier.
I want to change to Vodafone DE Froyo, but ota it is not available for me.
Can anybody share it??
THX,
Andy
I've received the Voda DE OTA update 2 days ago, my phone is not rooted (yet). If you still need the SBF please post the steps I shall execute and I try to create it. (I have been falshing my other phones only, not the defy)
To get SBF file you need to update your phone using Motorola Software Update (MSU) on PC. Copy SBF file from firmware folder in MSU installation directory right after the download phase.
Thanks for your help.
I've installed the update OTA, MSU is not downloading anything for me unfortunately
Is there still some interest in the VF.de update? We have about 60 devices in our company and I just downloaded the sbf and msu. Are both needed? I will try to upload it somewhere.

There you go. Tell me if the .msu is also needed.
Edit:
Tested it myself with stock-froyo on a VF.de device (for testing). Looks like all the others now and worked fine with RSD Lite.
Thank you, downloading now.
Hi
Please can anyone tell me how I can update my I9000 to the latest version of Android.
It currently runs Eclair with an update.
I have read heaps of stuff about Kies and I agree its useless! You have to use 3rd party apps to backup your phone!
By using the Kies reg patcher 1.8, I changed the product code to VNZ (vodafone NZ) and can now get Kies to tell me there's an update available, but when I try to update the phone I get a message saying it cannot be updated. I then tried changing it to TMU as this is what Kies tells me the existing firmware in the phone is. But I still cannot update the phone.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Cheers
Eugene

So you're saying that even if i successfully upgraded to Mango (coming from the beta 2) i have to roll back to NoDo in order to upgrade the firmware, right?
Is it a guess or something certain?
p.s.: could you tell me how to roll back (i've made the backup when i installed the beta)?

from what i'm seeing , by right you should get a LG update last . after you get all the updates to RTM . hmm .
if you didnt then i'm not sure why and hopefully someone in xda can capture the LG update and make it into a cab or something that we can easily install on our phones .
