[Q] Updating S8530 to Bada 2.0 via Kies - Bada Software and Hacking General

Hello Guys,
I have GT S8530 with Bada 1.2
I have a really slow connection which often drops. I tried upgrading to BADA 2.0 via Kies and it restarts the downloading whenever connection drops.
So is there any way so that I can download the official firmware uploaded somewhere (ofc with resume support) and make the Kies to install it?

I am having exactly that same issue on a 10 MBPS connection as well as a 4 MBPS connection. Tried almost 4-5 times before i gave up!

Forget Kies...
Download Firmware... via Links... or:

Then use Multiloader.
Best Regards

Did the same thing, 2.0 is better!

Oh! I checked for firmware upgrade using Kies yesterday but it said something like "Your device cannot be updated". Probably because I was using JPJG8 which is not an official release.

There are 2 files:

There was a tar file and a dll file in the JPJG8 package too. I simply ignored the dll file and used the tar file as the PDA. And of course a PIT file. Everything else blank. Worked fine.
Damn, no power here! Wonder how much longer I'm gonna have tp wait to download this. x(

I'll try it tonight, but is there a way to backup the actual firmware before flashing it ?
Else, what apps provides sms/contacts/apps backup, except kies ?

Little question from me:
Does this firmware also have the white/bright backgrounds in mail, calendar & more like the wave II firmware?
Yep bada 2.0 is out for the Samsung Wave S8500. Here is our video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wS2r0JLvmZg
Ok as I can see in the video it is white
Hope this will be changed to black in final because it looks ugly and kills the advantages of the AMOLED...

best (and fastest) way is with kies simulating an emergency recovery. It downloads directly on your pc. you have only to discover the temp file in the internet download directory unzip and voilà.

Hi:
I was intrigued with your comment, Can you explain how you do that? I have limited exposure to KIES and when I tried to do an emergency recovery to get stock my device did not show up in the window. There was a prompt for a recovery code. I have no idea what that is about or where I would retrieve such a code. Thanks!

shortly:
kies3 -> connect the device (the drivers will be installed) -> select "tools/firmware upgrade and initialization" -> click yes and accept to everything ; skip backup -> some components will be downloaded and installed on PC (the device will not be affected) . At this point the appropriate firmware start to download in a temporary folder. Discover this folder via an appropriate tool ( like procmon from sysinternals.com filtering the sm-p605.exe process - in my case C:\Users\"username"\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp3C06.tmp). when the download is finished this file is renamed from .tmp to .zip and inside it you will find the firmware (.tar.md5). Hope it helps

Thanks. Worked as advertised.
What is the difference between the note 10.1 2014 November and December 4.3 firmware on Samfirmware, one is from Taiwan and one is from Afghanistan. You think there are any lag fixes in those builds? Seems weird they don't have a December build for us...

Hello,
Sorry to bring back this topic but i would like some advice for my Chinese tab : JSS15J.P600ZCUAMJ1

Thanks a lot !

[Q] Remove android and reinstall Bada 2 ?

Hello there guys, I have one question... When I want to remove badadroid on my Samsung Wave (GT-S8500 to be exact), am I just going to put it to download mode and flash bada 2 files with multiloader like what I did on installing Bada 2 or do something different? Installed C-ROM on my wave and yeah, after trying out badadroid, I think I need to go back to bada 2 again as my Wave really heats a lot on android :/ . I know badadroid is still buggy at this point but yeah I take the risk XD . Thanks

Flash a full bada firmware with multiloader v5.65 (v5.67 bug sometime). Turko CFW v10.2 or firefly are good bada firmware. You don't need to flash bootfiles and fota, especially if you want a dual boot with android.

This One Is Easy...
Go to Sammobile.com and download your "Original / Current" Firmware and the Firmware you want to try.
Use Odin of Course to make the change.
If the New Firmware and Reset ( By You ) APN's don't work.... you have your "Original / Current" Firmware to flash back to using Odin.
If you do try this... You'll have 4 Parts to the ziped download.. stick each extracted file in it's designated spot within Odin and your off... :good:
Good Luck.
