Help! How to upgrade samsung i600 to WM6? - Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other

I recently bought the Samsung i600 smartphone with WM5 built-in. Its unlocked and has no restrictions whatsoever. I've heard that WM6 has been released for the i600 in several countries. Can anyone here PLEASE provide me with the WM6 rom, aswell as a detailed instruction as to how to upgrade my WM6 i600 to WM6?
PS - i have visited the online upgrade link for WM6 on the samsung website, when i clicked on UK, it asks me for my i600 Version number. I entered my Version number but a system sign pops up saying "Please enter your i600 Version Number". Although i had entered it, it keeps on saying it again and again. my version number is in the following form --> "i600JVCG2"
Please help guys...i know everyone simply rocks when it comes to trouble shooting and stuff...would be looking forward to your help people!
Thanks.

I have the same problem when accessing that stupid website
My version is i600DXGE1. It displays a popup "Please enter ....." after I enter anything to the field. I also try with IE and Firefox but no success till now

to answer you guys there is a solution on a MODACO forum (google it up) find the largest topic that deals upgrading and go to page 15 and find a post written by 'xippon'. You'll find your answer there, and then you might be able to help me because every time i try to upgrade a firmware it says 'select an image to download'... What should I do, given the fact that i'm using XP, and following the directions to the letter.

Well, I've got to here trying to find a solution to what is not working from what is written there.
If I try to directly install the WM6 Upgrader, I get "Incorrect Software Version"
If I try to first install i600XXGD1 as they instruct, I get "Select an image to install" and there is nothing to select from.
I am lost.

Anyone here managed to solve this?

the way out

try "i600XXCG2" instead of JV. maybe u can even try "XV".I donno whether they both need to be XX coz mine was DXCG2 already and i tried "i600XXCG2" and it worked. I think the CG2 is the sw version they need to confirm.Also, the download is only upto 31st oct, 2008, so make it fast!!Happy WM6ing!!
ps:yeah, and try in Internet Explorer.Other browsers' default settings might act up sometimes.

PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME

Hi guys I really need your help PLEASE,
I have only had my O2 XDA II Mini for 2 days, and I decided to upgrade the ROM early so I don't have to backup all my data before I have any (if you know what I mean).
Anyway, I went to www.seeo2.com to get the official upgrade. Clicked onto Oceania (i live in Australia), followed the instructions exactly for upgrade and downloaded the ROM upgrade. For everyones information the filename is ma_o2asia_11100_922_11100_ship.exe. Anyway, I had my device connected, had is synched up and started the upgrade process - at 11% an error appeared saying there was a RADIO ERROR and that I must restart the process.
I restarted the process, and an error came up saying ERROR 120: COUNTRY ID ERROR. And says that the ROM is not designed to be used on my device. I DOWNLOADED the Rom from the O2 website in the Australian section.
Now, my screen is stuck with SERIAL up the top and V.1.00 down the bottom when not connected to the computer, and USB up the top and V.1.00 down the bottom when plugged into the computer. The ROM upgrade continues to give me the same COUNTRY ID error.
PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME
Kindest Regards

Don't be lazy :!: .
All upgrade procedures are few times described in this forum, just read it.
Good luck

Samsung i600 upgrade for Australian phones?

I have a Samsung i600 (the Vodaphone version, with wifi). I want to upgrade from Windows Mobile 5 up to 6.1
(or 6.5, though I'm not sure if there are any significant improvements?)
I read one of the threads here about this upgrade, and it said I must first go to 6.0. I downloaded the generic updater linked at the samsung website ... however, it reports 'incorrect version', bummer!
Anyone had success upgrading such a phone? Or tips for me?

I think that the answer is pretty obvious..........first of all " you bought a loox 560. Pretty cool in 2006 but............
Secondly , I don't think a WM 6 upgrade was ever released for that phone. Any WM 6.0 upgrades you find here will not work because upgrades are very device specific.
Lastly, that phone is not supported on this site, so any help will be minimal and generic or not forthcoming at all.

[Q] How to downgrade to WM5 - AT&T 5700

Hey guys my first post here..
i want to downgrade my AT&T 5700 to WM5 now it is WM6.1
i searched the forums, but couldn't find any answer to AT&T, all are for HTC and others...
I need a solution ASAP
Regards
Umair
Sorry but this is not possible
Sorry but this is not possible period. After upgrading a phone it can not be downgraded!
Do a search for "downgrade phone" (with quotes) here on xda-developers.com via it's seach engine;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php
If you insist on doing it anyway... I advice you to obtain an empty image and put it on the phone first (that's what I would do). Then reboot twice (normally windows recognizes the 'former' OS like an old friend and operates faster in my opinion) before putting an old WM5 OS on the phone If you do, I would not be surprised if you'll completely brick your phone. You are on your own here, do not expect help from me or others...
Anyway success with it,
tried tried and not a single spark of success... not a way for downgrading...
anyways thanks

[Q] In desperate need of help regarding S2 stock firmware!

Hello Xda! I hope you've all had a wonderful christmas eve and an even better new year! I've joined this site after headhunting and reading numerous posts touching different topics regarding one subject and one subject alone: Samsung Galaxy S2.
Now, on to the issue at hand. After tweaking and modifying my firmware, in hopes of getting Cyanogen 7 to run along with the ICS theme for it and having failed, my Sg2 has never been the same, of one simple reason: I haven't found the exact stock firmware that fits my phone. When I write "fits my phone" I actually don't refer to the fact that they aren't working as they indeed are, but no-one that's up to date.
The problem could've been easily fixed if Samsung Kies actually worked with my Windows 7 64-bit, which it doesn't, and please, don't point me in the direction of other posts such as "untick debugging mode", "reinstall Kies", "install those drivers by searching 'this' and 'that' on Google", because trust me, I've tried everything. It worked for a couple of days, but now as I really need it, and want to get out of the hellhole I call "KE2", it doesn't seem to want to help me, at all. "This device is not supported by Kies".
Now, I've visited another thread here on xda, more or less this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 and dabbled myself through numerous versions until I finally settled for XWKE2 - Generic NEE and successfully managed it to run on my phone with Odin.
Since my phone is operator locked and I'm paying for it monthly via a Swedish operator known as Telenor I'm not able to update the firmware via About phone -> Software update either.
As I said, Kies isn't able to update my phone to 2.3.5/ KE7 (or whatever version is the newest) and I'm thusly stuck with XWKE2 & 2.33.
The most major problem I have is that I don't know which firmware to download from the topic I provided above, and I'd really like to know which one to actually download in order to have the most up-to-date version.
I'd immensely appreciate any help!
