[Q] Recover Wave to update through Kies - Bada Software and Hacking General

Can anybody help me out here,
I want to recover my wave after several succesfull flashes with bada 2.0 so it will be updatable through Kies. I've already flashed back to bada 1.0 and 1.2 but kies tells me there is no update. I used firmwares for my specific region but that didnt work even when I use the CSC preconfig of my country. Also tried to change the register in kies (older versions) but this also didnt work. Can anyone help me out here
My original productcode was BAAXEN but is changed to BAAKOR.

Please, send me a link to this fw
On bada there is no need for downgrade cause it doesnt work very well, flash a full firmware this is like installing windows after formating the hdd, there is everything erased, and every firmware that is complete can be flashed without problems.
Full Firmware means a complete one which can be flashed on an empty nand.
I heard this problem one time. I downgrade my Wave 2 successfully but sometimes you see this error. Shut down your computer and try different usb port
ok i say it to you one time again, bada update firmwares are contructed to update older firmwares, they deleting files and so that arent any more needet with pfs, if you "update"=downgrade a newer firmware which is not handeled by the update runtime like in pfs (deleting and adding files to file system) than it could be that you have a always restarting phone, better go the clean way, it is only a suggestion. sometimes it works but than other things dont work on the device. like mail and so on.
also multilaoder 5.65 is minimum for wave II the device is from this version supported i can uplaod you the service center pdf if you want.
Just to be clear, it shouldn't be the case this time, but there is a downgrade lock option in the bootloader. After it is enabled (I don't think Samsung would do that in this release) you won't be able to move back.
Bootloaders for 2.0 and 1.2 are different and not compatible, so you won't be able to run 2.0 on old (1.0 and 1.2) bootloaders and you won't run 1.0 or 1.2 on 2.0 bootloader. Full flash will be necessary.
Good thing is to use included usb drivers and MultiLoader from 2.0 package. In my case I reverted to XXJL2

i think that Samsung is turning into another Apple but with more strength because of more users
i hope i am wrong but i think that lock will be enabled at some point when it is necessary to do it (hack available in an old fw , release new one with the lock enabled)
i don't really love the way Samsung doing its business but i really love bada
let's hope for better
Best Regards
new firmware released
if i flash to that will bootloader get locked?
Seems to be locked
locked?
are you sure??
Bootloader is not locked, false alarm. Choose "Boot change" and "Full download" in MultiLoader, and it goes.
revert back to april version
and then revert to 1.2 xD

Samsung Galaxy S update via KIES not working.

Hello everyone and sorry if i created a topic that already exists ive been searching this forum for hours and i could not find a solution to my problem.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 purchased in Slovenia at the provider Mobitel.
I've tried to update my phone to a newer version of the firmware trough Kies but i get the following error.
OK as im new it doesnt let me insert links :/ so my firmware version is the following:
PDA:JS2 / PHONE:JPY / CSC:JS1 (MOT)
i know the update to 2.3 is availible in Slovenia but i think i am missing some update inbetween or something, as you can see my Kies says its not an official version on my phone but it is, my phone is the same as i bought it ive never updated yet nor i installed any custom stuff on it.
Hope someone can help me i've been trying to update for about 2 weeks now :/ thanks!
I have the same problem with my sons. I cant go no further as the notice i see is in chinese ????
Seems like the key (kie ) is to try it on different PC's. the usb driver that comes with kies is terrible and doesn't work on a lot of computers

[Q] How to make Kies recognize my official firmware ?

Hi everybody !
I flashed my Wave II with a official Italian firmware (S8530XXLA1). I flashed it by tricking Kies so by changing two times the country of my Wave (first from French to Italian then from Italian to French). Now Kies doesn't recognize my firmware and that's obvious. I know that if I turn my Wave II to Italian again, Kies would recognize it but when the official update will come in France I want to have it.
So my question is how to make Kies recognize my firmware to flash it with the French one ?
I know that I can flash it with MultiLoaderX with a official French bada 1.2 but I'd rather use Kies. So does anyone got an answer ?
This is not a priority for me since there is for now no updates for unlocked SIM.

If you mix something or use custom Firmware, Kies can't find correct incredients in database... =

Btw. Kies is annoying crap.

I understand. So I can't go back without flashing, can I? Because if I change product code it won't be recognize since the others "settings" won't match... Thanks for your answer.

Bada 2 finally working on Bell Mobility (Canada)

I almost gave up trying to get Bada 1.2 or 2 working on my Wave S8500. Most European flashes don't contain the UMTS850/1900 needed in North America for 3G/3G+.
I finally found the Venezuela 'L' flash contained those .
You can get that file plus the original S8500M flash for Bell from here
http://www.tsar3000.com/Joomla/inde...00m-wave-firmwares&catid=55:samsung&Itemid=82
Both flashes are near the bottom of the page.
You'll need to record your Network Connections before flashing as the Bell Internet connections are not hardcoded in the Venezuela flash.
Working like a charm and quite the update from 1.0
Enjoy
Does this really work in North America? Do you have any problems with network coverage, or any other problems?
Has anybody else from North America (Canada) tried Venezualla's "L" firmware on WAVS8500?

I can confirm it does indeed work. As for any problems or bugs, I didn't really run into any. I'm not a heavy cell phone user though so YMMV. Overall I would recommend it. I remember there being a trick I had to do to make it english, and the Venezuelan firmware had a weird theme IMO but that is easily changed. Loading this firmware also allows you to run the fota file to unlock your phone for free. I would say download the Venezuelan firmware as well as the stock Bell firmware. That way, if you don't like it, you should be able to go back to the way it was.
Do you remember, what version of Multiloader did you use to load the firmware and what was your operating system, XP, Vista, or win 7?
A while ago, I also tried to load Bada2 from Venezuela using Multiloader 5.64 under XP, but my phone crashed after bootloader. After that, there were some issues (usb not recognized) going back to Bell's Bada1 and I gave up. May be I did something wrong.
Has anybody else tried Venezuela's Bada2 and what versions of Multiloader, OS did they use?

try version Multiloader 5.67 then after flash try master reset *2767*3855#
OK people,
I managed to install the Venezuela firmware from Movistar, but what I can see I am not able to install applications both through Kies and the phone (Samsung App). The application store in Kies does not recognize the devise, but Kies itself recognizes it?! With manual selection of the device, I am able to download applications in Kies and it gives 100%, but don't see them anywhere in the phone.
For those having Win XP operating system and interested to flash there is a version of Multiloader 5.67 (with fixed GUI for XP) which works fine. It is called "Multiloader 5.67 by Bride". Here is the link:

Correction:
App store in Kies is working, but you have to select Venezuela as the store country!
