I've written an application for all of you who are still flashing your phones back to old versions to check for and obtain updates via NPS. (I remember those painful days.)
I think everything is pretty much self-explanatory; it will grab the update .zip.enc for you and decrypt it. All you have to do is extract the contents and use the traditional Odin means of flashing your device.
The one thing I ask is that you PLEASE do not do anything to abuse Samsung's update servers. The worst thing that I fear could come of this is that they change the way that their update server works. I'm releasing this strictly because I don't believe they're being fair or practical with the way their firmware updates are being released, especially since we've all noted several times that their own update software is horribly broken.
Note that this requires NPS to be installed, as it uses a library that NPS provides.
P.S.
It hasn't been tested all that much yet, so feel free to report any bugs. I'll try to address them as I have time. Also (sorry for the plug), I'm looking to sell my Galaxy if anyone wants it for a bit less than retail (say, $425). It's in pretty pristine condition...

wow, i take it youve had enough of the phone then?
btw does this have an os requirement? cant get it to work on win7 pro x64
It doesn't work on 64-bit Windows 7 because NPS doesn't seem to register its DLLs properly (nor does it seem to function properly on 64-bit Windows 7). You can try to register them manually (FUSCrypt.dll specifically), but I don't have enough time to tinker with it tonight.
Didn't work for me but as always i probably did something wrong I'll try again in few hours when i'm rested and my mind is clearly thinkin... Tnx sephail

I am running Win 7 (32bit) beta build 7600 and experiencing a peculiar problem. Server querying works fine, but when I press the download button, download starts and runs a for few seconds (progress bar is not moving, but i see it generates a network traffic). After that it stops and it times out with error message (operation has timed out). Then program crashes.
On the other hand, if I terminate downoad (hit Exit button) before timeout occures I get another error mesage and then crash. This time it reads:
Access to the path 'C:\GT-I7500I7500VIAII515500XXII5I7500XXII5_500.zip.enc' is denied.' (Just to note, i didn't choose c:\ folder as destination folder. It was my desktop.)
Would it be too much trouble if you were to add an option to choose where the .enc file will be downloaded, or to change that path to some other, more security-relaxed folder than C:\

you change it to the csc and versions of your current/original sw version and it will look for updates on that type
VIA is o2 germany, sephail put that info in to give you a working example
you need to know what your original firmware and csc was
How to set proper "Suffix"?
Could it be extended from mobile phone?
I tried:
*#*#INFO#*#*
*#*#1234#*#*
*#*#4986*2650468#*#*
but I cannot find Suffix...
From examples I see that it is from CSC code (except SFR).
But for my phone provider (Play Mobile Poland) it is not working (or there is no updates...)

Phone: I7500XXIH9

I have just got i7500, and very much new to android OS.
I wanted to update my firmware, below are details of my phone
1) Baseband:- I7500DDII3
2) kernel:- 2.6.27
3)firmware: 1.5
I tried to understand how FUS works, but i was not able to understand completely
could any one explain me what exact steps needs to be followed for updating the firmware.
Hi Samsungshah,
There is a great post here http://androidforums.com/samsung-i7500/36913-latest-firmware.html?highlight=baseband+codes to read which should help you a lot. I do not know which country your nation code "DD" stands for perhaps someone with the same could help you more. For an example in France I need to enter these codes into the FUS Downloader CSC Version: I7500BOGIG8
PDA Version: I7500XXIG8
Phone Version: I7500XXIG8
Suffix: BOG
Nation Code: XX
Model: GT-i7500
Or you could just download one of the latest firmwares IK4 ,IK5 and flash the phone using Odin if you are not bothered by not having your local CSC on the phone (If you are from Canada or Brazil please do not flash your phone ! ) Hope this helps a bit
Thanks for your reply.
I belong to India, so for India whether FUS will work?
And for second solution which you gave I am not sure how to proceed with that solution.
