Help new firmware from samsung new pc studio

[Rastaman-FB]

i think o2 uk must be using different software code to o2 germany.
there doesnt seem to be a way to revert to the h6 code or CSC that was on the uk handhelds as everyone lists VIA as o2 and forgets that VIA is germany and not UK.

this will cause issues for when the nps update is fixed also as it will keep installing the VIA code and not the UK

is there anyone that has the UK h6/g6 code and CSC?
im regretting doing this flash now, market is messed up and by the looks of it so will be the future updates unless people start listing the o2 uk csc's

Just phoned Samsung UK. They tell me they are working on new firmware that will work with NPS and they are taking contact details and they will call people when it's released with instructions for how to download and install it.

Call 0845 726 7964 to talk to them.

When I dial this number, I get a BT error message saying that it doesn't exist.

 

[hippy]

I searched SAYNOTO0870.COM - Non-Geographical Alternative Telephone Numbers and came up with..
0870 726 7864, 0845 726 7864 alternative: 01932 454358

Maybe try that?

This is the correct number:

0845 6726 7864

It's not just for Italy, I'm from Spain and I could update too

Perhaps are you Yoigo customer ? could u give your opinion about the carrier ?

As you could guess I'm about to get a Samsung galaxy with the Yoigo offer.

I'm back! So can someone tell me in a short post what's changed since I been away?

Whats the latest firmware now (I5 ?) - are there odin files for it, or can you update through NPS now? Is the firmware file from NPS available somewhere, then I could make odin files if we dont have them already.

Any big changes in new firmware?

(I know i should probably search but there's so many posts now, and i'd rather get to the point quickly and get on with doing something usefull)

Yes I5 is the latest firmware update. So far i personally havent really noticed any changes with it.

You can get it to download here Samsung Galaxy i7500 World Forums • View topic - I7500XXII5 Firmware


Edit: Ohh and ZeeToo wrote an application to help out with battery life and wifi state when putting phone to sleep and waking up check it out http://androidforums.com/samsung-i7500/8135-terrible-battery-life-firmware-issue-3.html

Thanks.

Looks like paul at modoco has one now and has made a custom rom with a custom kernel that has swap file support:

21/09 1.1 - the MoDaCo Custom ROM is here (rooted with custom Kernel with swap/netfilter + more&#33 - Android @ MoDaCo

currentyl based on H8, but a I5 version is on its way

The link above is broken, now that the i7500world.com VPS has gone down. But anyway, they took the firmware from our board:

Looks like NPS has been withdrawn from Samsung UK site and Samsung DE.
I tried to get latest NPS but cant find anywhere to download?.

I've just uploaded it to MEGAUPLOAD

Beware that it didn't detect my Galaxy.

My NPS detected my phone and is now updating to II5 but it stopped at 90% for some time, how long does it take to do the full update?

 

[kam187]

Hmm I think about 5 or 10 minutes. If its still going after 30 minutes there's definatly something wrong. Is anything displayed on the phone?

The NPS update doesnt flash the bootloader afaik so its _probably_ not likely to brick. Be safe and wait a while before doing anything drastic like stopping the update.

 

[Ricardo Miguel]

It stoped at 90% for more than 30 min, i unpluged the cable and it was still in downloading screen, i put the batery off and on and updated with odin, all fine for now.

 

[Breaker1-9]

After speaking to Samsung support, apparently a download will be made available in the coming weeks (before end of Oct), which will enable the Galaxy handset to be updated to the lastest firmware.

Following this update the handset will be recognised by NPS.

Any further updates will then be made via NPS.

Lets hope this is all true.

keep a check on the samsung website.

Hi

I have a big problem. I resume it in 3 cases

Case 1: When I connect NPS with the phone using USB, I can see 3 devices, 2 SD (internal and external) and 1 phone. I can work with 2 SD but I can

 

[kam187]

Case 1 - NPS doesnt work for syncing the samsung galaxy Export your outlook contacts to a csv, import them into gmail, and then sync to gmail on the phone.

Case 2 - You need to use DOWNLOAD mode, not recovery mode.

Volume down + OK + End call/Power

Its easy to get confused, OK means the OK button in the middle of the D-pad, and not the 'call' button. Pressing the call button instead takes you into recovery and not download mode.

Case 3 - Try updating the firmware and if it still doesnt work post again

 

[Ray]

There's something wrong with your PDA tar file. Try these:

I created them ages ago, and know they work ok

Uff, thank U very much Kam. I thinked my phone was dead.

Now I have installed G8 version (I had originaly G9) but NPS say the same message "unsorported device". I'm using 1.3.0.IH4 and I don't know if this 2 last letters H4 have relation with G8

Anyway, I'd like to update to the most recient version (if possible) or another more recient version. When I tried H7 (from G9) I was using the files you indicated in your link but it did't work

is it possible because I was tried from G9? could I tried now from G8? I prefer wait your answer cos I had a lot of "emotions" in a day about this point

Thank U again
