Hello All,
Can you please help me with this?
I bought a Glaxy Ace 2 (GT-I8160) and noticed that it was running Android 2.3.6!!!
I checked for update via OTA and KIES and both showed none.
Is there any way to update it to JB while keeping both English and Arabic (Full Menu in Arabic not just character support) languages?
PDA: I8160JPLD6
Phone: I8160JPLD6
CSC: I8160OJPLD2
Phone is unlocked.
Thank you kindly in advance.

I think you could use kies to do it

I tried but it showed no update. It says that my version of KIES does not support firmware update or something...
I guess I should try again.
Thanks for your reply.
I got mine two weeks ago. I live in Finland.

sorry for the very noobish question but i too hope to upgrade it as well
firmware/rom mean OS right?
so long story short i took it to a samsung customer service and they said i had to pay a service fee to get it upgraded (i had around 9 months left, i barely used it (heavy laptop user) and i havent touched the software) to which point i thought about upgrading it on my own
IF firmware/rom do mean OS, why are there so many different versions (excluding language; smoother, more stable ETC)? i see a few are around 500MB and the largest ive seen was 1.6BG. could you explain the differences? id honestly prefer a torrent since my internet connection is very unstable
do all packs contain english?

Dear all,
It seems that a new ROM is appearing on KIES this afternoon. Several Dutch people have claimed the following update notice:
I9000XWJS5
New firmware available:
PDA:JS5 / PHONE:JPY / CSC:JS3 (XEN).
Download HERE:

Have you even read the topic title?
To be clear: Froyo 2.2.1
Several sources claim to have it:

Most of them have KIES 2.0 or higher. It seems to be a phased roll-out again as not all people get the update notice.
Lets hope other regions gets the update as well

Samsung firmware i9000XWJS5 soon online.
Twitter of SamFirmware
Kind of weird though that Samsung picks XEN again to "try" the new release. We're this tiny country that get their own CSC and what apparently is an early rollout .
whoop! another rom....
wish they would concerntrate on givin us 2.3! lol
wonder what bugs this one fixes/brings....
Do you know when its coming to Germany (DBT)?

"Samsung firmware i9000XWJS5 soon online."
So you can flash WJS5 trough odin.
I have the newest version of Kies (2.0.0.11014_49).
My firmware version is JS3/JPY/JS3, the official dutch 2.2.1 update that was removed from Kies a few days after i installed it.
But i still get the message it can't be updated.
The FUS server still says the newest version is JP2 (froyo, cause 2.2.1 was removed).
Bit weird...
This is definitely a good sign, samsung pushing out updates for its current flagship model, then again 10+ million sales is good motivation for such.
However when S2 arrives and is publicly announced, i hope they dont forget about us 10 mill users. SGS is a powerful piece of hardware and im sure whatever they throw at the S2 our GS will be able to handle also.
Hats of to sammy for pushing out releases. Obviously they are working hard at fixing bugs
Do you know what happens if i flash another product code ROM? the only difference are the languages and swype?

Hi all,
Wonder if anyone else is having the same problem.
Since updating with the official Gingerbread rom I have been unable to connect to the 3g network. The phone will only connect to 2g or HSPDA.
I'm on vodafone and have checked with friends who are able to connect with 3g and also have checked vodafones message boards but no faults are reported.
I have also tried all the APN's listed on Vodafone website but has made no difference.
Would be grateful for some help.
Thanks all
Same here...
This happened to me too.... tried everything... no result so far.
Hoping that someone comes up with a root method so I can downgrade to my previous ROM.

Really. You were rooted and took this update......... why not just wait for.a rooted version of the update.....

It was widely publicised that this deletes all the APNs I thought. Google your service providers APNs or use wifi to install an app with them on.
Hope this helps

Sorry if this is a kind of useless thread, but did anyone else get a phone update on Three UK, and do they know what it does?
I recieved it aswell, I believe it's the recent 2.3.5 update.

All I can say is that I got an official WFS (Not from 3) but I'm on Three PAYG. No updates for me.
Got the update again, now it says 2.3.5, contains "performance improvements"

While browsing Samsungs website I happened to click on our Note 2 model i317 and under OS it says 4.3, my question is has been released already? Ive been testing the international 4.3 builds, I would love to test an official rooted deoxed version. I found the info here... http://m.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SGH-I317ZWAATT#specs

I haven't heard anything, This probably means that because Samsung gave At&t the update that it's just waiting for them to push it to us. Should be really soon, sprint already has theirs and I read that T-Mobilw just got theirs out
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Sprint's update is out, T-Mobile's is out, US Cellular's is out, Verizon's dropped today and we wait. Funny that AT&T was supposed to one of the earliest updates on the leaked list but we still wait. I just want it to get into the hands of the TW ROM teams, Ditto Note, Sky Note and Jedi so I can see what they do with it.
Yeah, my contract is up in January and I don't think I'm going to stick with AT&T. It seems like they really don't update their phones if they don't absolutely have to. =/
Thank God I am not with At&t and I am pretty sure this note will be the last phone I get that is At&t branded phone with how they are locking up their phones
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
What is the latest version from AT&T? I am still on 4.1.2. If I am in a different country will I still get an update if AT&T releases on update? Every time I check for an update it always says that I have the latest update.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I don't think that the update will be far behind the other carriers. At&t always waits till the last possible moment for anything. My guess is that it wont be an OTA but thru Kies which will suck cause my CPU just crashed on me the other day

Well as far as I can tell they're already the last carrier to push the update. The only question now is "WHEN?" (if ever, heh...)
As for Kies, I highly doubt it. Every other update was always OTA. Kies is just a convenience factor.
Refurbished units and warranty replacement devices reportedly have 4.3 loaded..
Of course ...no love for the current users ...again....g

Update is failing... I think it's b/c I removed some Sammy bloat apps.
I've never had to go back to stock / unroot. Is there a guide? Is there a stock SGH-I317 UCAMC3 zip in this forum I can use with odin?

(Yes, I searched a ton and only found some questionable non-xda guides.)

Just got update on my GT-I9300 international version unlocked, got installed successfully but then apps started giving problem, crashing multiple time, unable to launch. So had to reset, works fine now.
One thing! I felt my phone was damn slow after the update.

I think that you can download customied firmware for UK market instead of (or France, Germany etc).
in which version there is "cost saving" in messages app?

I do think that such app is specific for carrier, not for a market in general.
What do you mean with "carrier"?
Carrier means your mobile service provider (Heyah, Play, T-Mobile etc.). And there is no such an option like u mention in Lolipop update.
Nordic Combined took forever on the z2 tablet as-well.. If there's any correlation then I'd estimate another 1-2 weeks.
And still no update. Why? Are they waiting for the fixed lollipop to avoid doubleupdate.
If I remember correcly, we got the kitkat update first. Now it's probably our (DK) time to wait.
Nordic
I'm in dk and Ii have downloaded and installed 5.0.2 for my z1 compact. Not the OTA update, but manually. It was very easy to do. 2-3 clicks or so. Don't remember wich site i got it from though. No noticeable bugs so far.
