Help Samsung i7500 latest firmware for india

[tekarthik]

Dear friends:

I am from India and the samsung galaxy phone i purchased last week has firmware - I7500DDII3. Is this the latest one or do we have any upgrade to this firmware for Indian region. If there is one or any alternative, where can i download it and how do i update my phone with the new firmware?

Also, wanted to check if custom ROM's like GALAXHERO Ver 1.1 supported for india?? Is GALAXHERO Ver 1.1 & II5 firmware regio specific by any chance??

I would sincerely await your most valuable inputs for this query of mine.

Thanks !!

I do have the same firmware....I7500DDII3
I don't want to update my firmware since for me, it is okey
I want to root my phone.
Can anybody give me a link how to root.

 

[mitmeister]

I7500DDII3... stuck with old thingy.. don't want to void the warranty... waiting of Donut (forever).. Even if they launch Donut firmware, dunno when they'll launch in India.. and the current NPS sucks... does nothing other than detecting the phone...

So waiting for a better NPS and Donut... if nothing works out then got to scrap the warranty

After connecting to PC you'll see USB Icon in Top of the Galaxy. Just click and drag down. Then You need to mount the SD Card. Just click Mount and you'll get the SD Cards as Thumb Drives. Then you can copy files(JPG/MP3/3GP/MP4).

I realy disappointed on File Manager/Blue Tooth file Transfer/ .WMV, .AVI File Support which are missing.

Anyway am waiting to update the latest Andriod Version. I can't waste my 16K Mobile (@ Bangalore on 7th March 2010). Saw in Univercell site that it's about 14+K Only.. (

This is too old. They had one in March 2010, guess they removed it. But that too didn't have any updates.
