Is it a Galaxy S or a Galaxy S 4G? Either way, I believe you can download Kies Mini from Samsung and get the update that way.

I hope I didn't misunderstand what you were looking to do. The only OTA or Kies update you can get from Samsung is still Froyo. It's the KD1 update.
If you're looking to update it to Gingerbread, there is not an official Samsung release yet. You would have to install one of the many leaked versions or custom ROM found in the Dev section of this forum.
Good luck

To add on, you need to have the bootloaders from a leaked ROM to run GB properly. Afterwards, just root by flashing drhonk's GB kernel and flash your custom ROM through CWM.
Hi all,
I am new to this forum and i am really expecting some help from you guys.
Samsung recently launched ICS update for galaxy S2 in INDIA and i have been trying to update my phone via Kies but every time when kies is done with all the downloads and this screen called "Downloading...Do not turn off the Target" comes on the phone the phone gets disconnected and Kies gives the message that it cant detect the phone and i should remove battery and restart, whereas phone get stucks at that same Downloading message screen.This problem comes over and over again and everytime i restart my phone it starts normally with my 2.3.6 firmware.
What can be the possible cause and solution for this?

Hey
1 of all....Kies damn sucks
I think you should go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ and search for I9100
scroll down and take the ics 4.0.3 for india
Flash it via odin and it should work
if you dont have any experience with odin search here in teh xda for an tutorial
Tell me if it worked

Ok I have the same problem. Only I checked the performance monitor for network activity, and there's a process; kiespdlr.exe that's actually downloading, but it's been like this for a while now, and there's no progress bar or anything so I don't know if the phone's actually frozen or not!! Should I wait or restart the phone?
Pleaaaaase help!! I'm scared stiff that I might brick my phone!! I just bought it!!

Hi.
I have a rooted Samsung GT-I5801 with 2.1 and been waiting patiently to Samsung to resolve the KIES problem, but i'm tired of waiting.
All the official solutions i saw to upgrade had a warning to phone that where blocked to the operator. The fact that a i have it rooted removes that block?
How can i upgrade to 2.2?

Don't know about the block, but just search for STOCK FROYO OS in the dev thread
There is one with all stock firmware
Else go to samfirware.com (google for exact address) , register, and download the reqd firmware FOR THE REQD REGION

It would be nice to try custom froyo 2.2 roms. Stock 2.2 rom for i5801 has phone heating problem when used with continuous data connection. U won't get good battery backup either.

Thank you for your reply. Will try that.

you dont have to use kies at all for that...just go to samfirmware and download the ics 4.0.4 UVMB1(thats the latest version and not the UVLH5) and flash it using odin in download mode..
here is the page link with instructions and odin link :-
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=12008
p.s. -make sure the re-partition is not checked else you will end up bricking your phone..cheers!!

hahaha no he means if you are on any stock rom and not just ginger bread...all the stock roms have wifi calling which has been coded with framework with unknown encryption by samsung which cant be decoded without a lead...thats why you dont have the wifi calling on any custom rom...and you are not able to update by kies because your device has been rooted and has custom binary on it...so u can either use this ics and get to latest stock rom flashing with odin or you can first flash the baseband for the GB rom you are on and then use triangle away app and then update it over kies which is more hectic and another thing is once you download this you can just flash it whenever u feel like it and dont have to think twice...the files will be always there on pc and its easy as anything

Hi, you will be fine as long as any ROM/Kernel you flash is built using a stable ICS ROM/Kernel as it was only in the pre-release versions which caused the super brick bug. And don't worry at all about JB the issue was long gone by that stage
