[Q] Samsung Galaxy Si9000

Hi...
I am trying to upgrade the firmware of my Galaxy Si9000.
When I connect to Kies, I get a pop-up saying my firmware is PHONE:JP2 and a new upgrade PHONE:JV4 is available. I tried upgrading but once the process starts,
First I get an option to Backup Data.
Then, I see a window which says "Preparing device for Firmware Upgrade"
And that's it. After some time download begins , in between 50-60% its stops and start downloading from the starting, I tried doing 5 to 6 times but no help.
Any idea???
My Galaxy S is currently running on Android 2.1
Kies is updated to the latest version.

[Completed] Galaxy Note 4 Stuck In "Firmware Upgrade Encountered An Issue..."

I have an AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4, model SM-N910A. I tried downgrading to 4.4.4 from Lollipop, only to find myself get to the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." screen.
I have tried flashing stock lollipop back on to my phone using Odin, to no avail. I'm Positive they were for my model. So I turned to Kies 3. The "Emergency firmware recovery" option does not pick up my phone in it, so i tried "firmware upgrade and initialization". Fails to upgrade the software every time. What I think is the problem there is that Kies tells me its going to go back to 4.4.4, which cannot be done with the bootloader locked how it is.
From here, I have lost all hope. So I am here, hoping someone can save my ruined day.
