Root is there an update to android 1.6?

[Xenon]

As far as I know, there is no official 1.6 release that doesn't suffer from the no-sleep bug. Am I correct?

As far as I am aware that's correct. I haven't seen a newer version than JC6, looks like Samsung have completely ceased working on the I7500

There recently was JH-something, but it was just a regional fw for O2 Germany, so it is probably same old JC6 with JH coming from the CSC version, which is pretty much irrelevant for anyone outside Germany )

Untill now i did the update to 1.6 official, then to Galaxo 1.6.3.3 and then to Galaxo 1.6.3.4, the weird thing is that i used the "I7500XEJC6" that was in the guides etc, but my phone still shows the I7500XEFJB2 :| i wonder why, and my GPS still doesnt work

Informale, I've been looking around for that one but I can't find it, think you could find it back? It might be an XX version of JC6 which I would prefer to XEJC6 and XXJB2...

Thanks...

Try setting your date/time manually rather than having it set to auto. A few people seem to be reporting that this fixes their GPS problems.

I believe you can get an Italian fw, which is also a JC6, despite being labeled as JB2. Check inFECT's fw-archive (a link is in the latest firmware topic http://androidforums.com/samsung-i7500/36913-latest-firmware.html ).

Ok, then I think you're mistaken, the latest VIA (appears to be O2 germany) is JC2/JB2, not JC6. Nevermind though. It's indeed the same as the italian firmware. No JC6.

See for i7500L users, an official update is really needed. Although GAOSP is great, there are parts of our phone that is still sitting at 1.5 ( the amss ). Now I don't know if an official Donut amss for L users would be of benefit, or not, but I would like all of my phone upgraded.

In case anyone is interested, I received an e-mail response from Samsung advising me that the phone will not be receiving an upgrade to 1.6. The hardware is not compatible with the new version. Whatever that means.

 

[informale]

My god! What a terrible company Samsung is... Why would they not update the phone to 1.6 worldwide if they already have a pretty usable and fast 1.6 rom!
