Tmobile update?

hello all, nice to be here.
Tmobile sent out a software update to my phone this morning, did any one else get one?
I was about to start modding stuff like taking off touchwiz. Would a software update make doing this harder?
It reads,
'congratulations!
T mobile has sent you a new software update for your device.
To proceed with installation select next.'
It's possible that this update might keep me from modding certain things right?
Any details known about the update?

Is it just KD1? I know that rolled out from tmobile recently.

It's kd1 update. We have had a deodexed and rooted version available for Odin flashing here for a while. I recommend using it instead of the tmo version. Look up Whitehawkx kd1 thread here on the forum and follow the directions in the op if you want to try it out.
Also an fyi to avoid flames--this is the dev forum. Questions should go in general forum. We are trying to keep things organized so folks can find what they need--and to keep Mr. Clown (forum mod) happy!

Since the galaxy s in the UK got the gingerbread update can we use that as a 2.3 base to build roms on?

That wasn'tithe Galaxy S 4G so unfortunately no...

So we cant even use it as a base? We are porting vibrant roms now. I'd assume the same process would need to be done and the button mappings changed right?

I doubt it, not yet anyway... as you can tell they're having a bit of trouble porting froyo roms

Need some help rooting my device.

Hi, I just updated my firmware to gingerbread 2.3.5 and I haven't been able to find anything on how to successfully root this version of android. If you guys can lead me in the right direction, it would be awesome. Thanks

You're gonna get flamed for posting in the wrong section, not searching for any information on your own, and expecting information to be spoon fed to you.
You root GB by flashing drhonk's custom GB kernel through Odin.
There are at least three recent threads about this. Please search next tinge for information, and post when you can't find anything.

Thanks to you also for the help. I would hate to be a retail salesman and have to deal with the people that bit my head off. They probably walk into a store and say "GET ME THE NEW *UCKIN* SAMSUNG PHONE NOW". lol. I do admit that I should have read a little before posting but sheesh.

If you had gone into the general section and read the titles you wouldn't noticed it's exactly what you want

Yea. That link you gave me is for fresh out the box t959v. After reading it a couple times. It doesnt have anything for rooted phones. I want to know how to upgrade with a already rooted phone with froyo to gingerbread.

You need the KJ6 Heimdall One-Click. The guide for it is in the second post in that same thread. Look again.
Or click the second link in my signature.

It doesn't really matter whether your phone is rooted or not, that's the beauty of these phones. Just follow lumin's instructions and you'll be set.

He can't use Kies mini because he is rooted. I think he only saw the guide in the first post and that is why he thought it wouldn't work.

Which one would i use? Bootloader or non bootloader? Again.... thanks for all the information. It is highly appreciated.

You need the one with the bootloader becuz the froyo bootloader doesnt work so well with the gingerbread rom.
