Hi,

Yoa...Great my friend....were you able to install flash on it.....coz stock KC1 Samsung firmware for android doesn't let you install Flash player......any sucess with rooting...

Thanks...
 
Thanks for the confirmation. Did you select psneuter or rageagainstthecage option while rooting ?

@Wishvak Flash is only available for ARMv7 devices. Galaxy pop is ARMv6 so rooting won't help you play flash content.

Check your firmware version in settings<about phone<Build version if it is FROYO.DDKA7 then no upgrade will be available because it is the latest version.

I am guessing the problem is with Samsung Kies on Windows 7 machine .. I am running Windows 7 64 bit on my lappy and I also face the same problems outlined by others in the thread .. So I tried upgrading on my office desktop which run Windows XP 32 bit, it went off smoothly .. It took some time to download and after upgrading the firmware, the phone took a little bit longer than usual to boot up .. Working fine afterwards .. Havent seen any improvement or change so far ..

hey mate..try updating your kies software first may be that's causing the problem, and then please let us know :D

u will get updates thru kies only if samsung has released any update for ur region. and so ur fone is already updated to available official update. :)
 
Hi.. When I connect my phone to the pc via kies I am not getting the prompt that an upgrade is available. When I click on the firmware upgrade button it says that there is no response from the server and that i must check my internet connection and try again. Can anyone please help me with this. Also my internet speed is pretty slow. Can this be a reason that there is no response from the server?

Yes! Also it may be because there is no upgrade available for your rom.
And don't even try to upgrade in such slower networks via kies because if the network connection is interrupted(broken) you will probably brick your galaxy pop gts5570. Here is a more safe way to do, Download all the needed files and Upgrade it manually. Read this article for more info on that Handy Informations: Upgrade Samsung Galaxy Pop/Mini GTS5570 to Gingerbread 2.3.4
Good Luck!!!:):)

Thank you yagya.. But wouldnt it be a little dangerous to upgrade manually?
Click to expand...

Yes, there is little risk (and the famous saying goes, 'to get something goo you must do something risky') But, if you follow the instructions and do it the right way carefully there will probably be no risk...

Also it is less riskier than doing it via kies in a slow network (the firmware will be if about 100+ mb size and it will take more than an hour in 192 kbps or 20 KB/s speed, and if anything happens in between, blahh!!!). So, don't worry and do it if you want to upgrade. Just follow the instructions carefully...
