Is this official 2.2.2 Froyo or something else ? - Defy General

Hi,
I couldn't confirm the origin of these files:
http://and-developers.com/sbf:defy
=> The files under 2.2.2 Froyo Service Flashes, are they official ones or something weird from the internet (e.g. a beta/ a leak etc.)
Thanks!!

*bump*

2nd bump (really need to know this)

Some are official while some are "leaked" eg. the UK 177 is official release whereas I'm sure the Nordic was a leaked version.

Are there any information on the quality of 2.2.2 Central Europe ? Does leaked mean unfinished/ unstable ?
Where can I get an official 2.2.2 version ?
*edit*
My version (Central Europa 2.2.2) has the version number 3.4.2 179-002 and I cannot find any newer "official" version. So I guess it's the one that also came through the Motorola Software update.

Yes I suppose leaked version may be buggy but when looking at the Nordic leak it's pretty good. The UK 3.4.3-11 leak was also pretty good in my experience whereas the first UK leak 3.4.2-117 had issues like haptic feedback not working on the soft keys.
Also when looking at official versions like the latest official UK build released by Moto Software updater people are reporting issues with that.
I think the Central Europe 179 that you have is the official Moto Software update.

Currently my phone says 179-002! The one I downloaded through Motorolas official software BEFORE was 177-003.
So whatever I currently have is newer than what Motorola offers. I'm from Germany. Maybe the Motorola software somehow recognized that and gave me 177 (current German version). So the question is wether 179-002 is an official version made for the Central European (non German) market or a leaked version.
to make this clear:
first I downlaoded 177 German through Motorolas software
then later I manually flashed 179 CEE from this mysterios sbf:dev page above...
Now I wan't to know what 179-002 CEE is, official or beta/ leaked...

Anyone know when HTC might release WM6.5 for my TP2?

I have the Hong Kong English version of the TP2, for which WM6.5 apparently still hasn't been released. Does anyone have any idea when it might happen?
I contacted HTC and they said that they are relasing updates one by one for areas in the world. In their official statement they say that the updates will be available between october and mid november so i guess november is my best guess.
Here's the official email:
2009/10/30 08:23 Pete (Europe Support (Tech))
Thanks for your email.
Your devices is an Eastern European device, and as such, we have not yet uploaded the ROM update for your device. With the millions of phones that we sell, we have to stagger the release of the different ROMs over several days so while i understand this must be a little frustrating, I am afraid you will need to be a little partient for just a few more days.
The ROM update for your particular device should be available to you from the 11th or 12th of november. It will be available from the current download page, and the serial number will simply begin to work around that date.
best regards,
HTC Technical Support
My phone's SN# starts with ht96 that is (obviously) not supported yes.
I have found on this forum a post with ht95nll00167 SN# that works fine.
Even if HTC states, it is not for my region - it works fine (except for memory leaks of course, but this is a long story with HTC...).
I know about that SN that works. I used it also but unfortunately you still cant update because the updater wont let you. Dont worry, by mid November every EU device is going to have a wm 6.5 upgrade.
There was no issue during upgrading as I use so called GoldCard created with QMAT (http://www.revskills.de). One have to pay 20EUR but it is definitely worth of it's price.
Now HardSPL is available so you can use it instead but this way you will affect your guarantee rights while GoldCard is safe ;-)
Release will be 11.11.2009
I'm waiting too for the official rom from HTC. The customer service told me that the update will be available for my phone november 11-12.
I read some feedback tho and it looks like the HTC Touch Pro2 with WM 6.5 is really sloppy and the lag became an issue. Anyone tried it with the official rom? I'm not sure the feedback i read came from cooked roms or the official one.
I'm not yet sure if i will upgrade my phone at this point.
Also anyone knows if in WM 6.5 windows live and the messenger have been upgraded?
Thanks
Lello
I got my phone to a point where its really stable and although I've been using WM 6.5 on my previous phone since spring, i wont be upgrading anymore. I don't want to lose this stability I have now. TouchFlo does its job to hide most of the windows native screens so i'm fine.
It wont be long anyway cause when WM 7 comes out I'll probably get a new device anyway.

Release for what? EU versions, or my Hong Kong English model?
The official statement is that they will release a wm 6.5 upgrade for all devices between october and november. So i believe your version is going to be upgradeable on 11th of november.
Ooh! Cool.

My serial starts with HT96... the website says that i don't have he right version to download??
Bought for Australia phone came from Hong Kong.
Hi ! I have a similar issue to Mewsik. The HK-English page says that my phone's serial number of not applicable (It starts with HT98..). But the HK-Chinese page accepts it ! I'm worried that if I flash my ROM with what I download from this page, everything on the phone will switch to Chinese. I bought my phone from ebay. The ROM is 1.19.707.2 (51489) WWE.
Can someone tell me if it is ok to flash this phone with the ROM upgrade available on the HK-Chinese page ? If it's not, how can I download the upgrade from the HK-English page ?

The build number is 2.73.771.73, so it's just a 1.5 ROM.

Yup. Go to a site like www.mediafire.com, and upload it there if you want.
I'm sure someone will root it for you if you post it up here.
thats a shame why release a 1.5 update when htc are SUPPOSED to release 2.1
Well, HTC would have to release it for stock, unbranded heroes before 3 could possible release it (HTC sends the final stock ROM to 3, who test it and add their own [cough]enhancements[/cough](aka. junk).
So, until we see a stock (ie. retail, unbranded) Hero RUU up there, I don't think there is much chance of 2.1
what is H3G?? Why cant I download it? It says it doesnt support my device. Well I have hero, what the hell
it`s for the 3 network phones h3g stands for hutchinson 3g
now added link for everyone enjoy
Hey, so will installing this on my t-mobile Hero make a difference? will it be better? will it even work?
I'm currently running the 2.73.405.5 build
only for rooted etc phones

Firmware Chaos

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.

Confused - latest software versions?

Hi Guys
I'm completely confused.
I'm on a H815 in the UK. My phone is an O2-UK branded handset and my latest branded software version is H81510E_00 (v10e). I'm currently using the EU open unbranded firmware which works absolutely fine.
However - around the forums I'm seeing versions V10F, G, H etc so now I'm completely confused.
What is the latest software version available for EU handsets? Is it E? Why are some people saying that D is the latest, or they're installing E but it's showing as version D.
What's the definitive answer as of today - 22nd September? Can we keep a stickied post at the top of the forum simply stating which official software version is the latest for which handsets?
Cheers
Nick

+1. I have the V10d european open unbranded but I noticed that some other people have a lot of different versions.
I came here to ask the exact same question.
The numbering is just messy. Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62467663&postcount=77
The newest European system is 10E. You might find around 10F but it is only for AU (might be the same as 10D in EU) and 10G/10H again for different regions.
The phone was released with 10A. Then autoprime released a rooted 10B image but called it 10C because 10C was set in build.prop.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/stock-h815-10c-stock-rom-kdz-t3141866
*note*
the original KDZ file was named 10B but build.prop shows 10C... therefore I am going with the 10C name for now.
ro.lge.swversion=H81510c
ro.lge.swversion_short=V10c
ro.lge.swversion_shortdate=V10c_11-JUN-2015

Since then we have the above confusion. But you are good to go with 10E EUR. Even rooted images are available if you are rooted and twrp-ed.
is there a website which shows releases like samobile for Samsung?

Thanks! Still confusing as hell, but that's made it a bit clearer! Not sure how Apple can ship a world phone (i.e. one hardware version) yet LG/Samsung seem to have 5-10 different hardware revisions for different parts of the world!
