Official Rogers Update: Samsung Galaxy S Android 2.2 OS Upgrade

[alexx]

I update last week as well, with the unofficial one.

The version info on my phone is:

Firmware Version: 2.2
Baseband version: I896UXJL1
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
Build number: FROYO.UXJL1

Could anybody with the official update share the version info please?

Hi Erin,

Has the location services problem been fixed for Android 2.2?

Hi there,

I can only comment on supported versions. If you’re concerned that you don't have the most current OS, or that there was an issue with the upgrade, you’re best to call the support contact listed.

Thanks

From the PDF above, the software version is I896UXJL1.  So I assume thats the official release. Check under settings to see if you have that on your phone.

I am using Windows 7 64bit. As per your suggestion I tried it out on an  XP laptop but the same thing is happening. The laptop is 32bit.

Remove and re-insert your battery, make sure your device is plugged directly to the USB port (no splitter, USB hub etc) and plug the device in the back of your PC, not a front USB port. If it continues, follow these instructions:

If the device is not being detected by Samsung Kies, you may have to download and install the drivers for it.

Click on Kies in the top right and click on Driver Recovery.

Click Yes

The drivers are now downloading and installing.

Once the drivers are installed, a message will appear that its completed.

Try again, it should detect the device. Let us know if it works.

The two firmwares are the same. To be sure I updated our lab device and get the same readings:

Firmware: 2.2

Baseband Version: I896UXJL1

Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9
Build Number: FROYO.UXJL1

Has anyone been able to install this update? I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium and MSC.Thunder.FirmwareUpdate crashes right before the update starts downloading. This seems to be a fairly common problem with Kies but not of the suggested solutions work for me.

I actually tried the method you provided before I began my first post here today. Still doesn't work.

Having the same issues, was using 1.5.3.10104_66 and couldn't put it into download mode. Then updated to 1.5.3.10113_29 and it have me the msc.thunder.firmware update has failed or something like that. Getting very frustrated with this I really want to be able to update to version 2.2

Hi Northy

    Kies  recognize  my "Weekend" 2.2  as up-to-date,  I'm going to skip whatever this "Offical" release until something newer come-out (Ginger-Bread anyone  Hee hee ?)
