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.

Hi,
I have searched and searched for an answer to my specific question and am having NO luck.
To start, my Samsung Galaxy S Captivate (on Rogers network) came stock with Froyo, and I hastily upgraded to Gingerbread (2.3.3 is what it's currently running). I tried to root the phone using Odin and Gingerbreak, both with NO success. It just hangs up for hours, doing nothing. Not rebooting, just hanging there.
My questions are:
Can I root this phone, despite its having been upgraded to gingerbread and isn't STOCK gingerbread? and if not...
Can I revert back to Froyo somehow?
Keeping in mind, this phone has NEVER been ROOTED.
Many thanks in advance!!
couldn't you use odin1click to flash stock 2.1 and upgrade back to froyo using Kies thn root with superoneclick? dont take my word for it though! lol im still a lil bit noobish
The member by the name of trusselo is the one you seek. If i remember correctly he has all the stock rogers odin one clicks in his sig.

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?

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 all.
I have watched the NOOB Video. I have scoured the forum. I have looked at other Android sites. I,m at a loss.
I have recently been given an old stock GT-I5801 that was never updated and network locked to Orange. To be able to use the phone I unlocked it. I gave my rooted xperia x8 running a hacked 2.2 to my son, as I read that the I5801 had an official Froyo 2.2 update. I installed KIES, updated as requested when first running the software, and it doesn't recognise the phone. I tried uninstalling/re-installing KIES and not updating it, I found that the phone had two Home screens (orange and TwLauncher) I tried connecting using both.
I have found instructions on how to put the official firmware update on not using KIES but the links to the firmware its self are broken.
I decided to update to a Android system 2.3.7 / CyanogenMod 7.2, however the instruction require I root it, the instructions to root are for Froyo 2.2
I'm going around in circles, I'm at a loss. can any one point me in the right direction to get at least Froyo 2.2 official on this phone. Thanks.
P.S. I may of ignored the part in the NOOB video that tells us to be brief...........sorry.
Just flash cm7 or any rom with odin, check the flashing guide in sticky thread.

Well if that's the only way, would been nice to have a fully working 2.2 rather than a hack with issues. I'll go look into the least problematic one, cant be any worse than 2.1 stock.

GT-I5801 has indeed been updated to Froyo and Froyo is one of the more stable firmware/ROM for our mobile.
You can download any stock Froyo ROM of your wish from the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497261.
Esle, you can look up to this thread to use any of the Custom ROMs which have better features than stock ROMs http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1234591
I prefer Kisadworx or PuruKisadHybrid.
Download Kyrillos rom or any rom flashable via Odin. Just flash it no need to root as many roms are prerooted.

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 :-

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
