I could not get Kies to work on my 64 bit Windows 7. I guess the drivers only work on 32 bit.

Running Windows 7 x64 here with Samsung's latest drivers...but I've also permanently disabled driver signature enforcement as well...

Try disabling signature check using easybcd free tool, that you can get from http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1

Run easybcd, click advanced options button.

Christ KIES sucks hard.

Wouldn't let me do anything without updating KIES.
Update hangs constantly saying *internet connection seems to be down, please recheck and try again*.

Umm....I'm typing and posting this while it says my connection is down :|

What a crappy spot of coding .....

Must be 3-400 individual update files, all .cab files.
Dipshits should make 1 single self-extracting .cab file and then it wouldn't hang due to the server constantly getting hmmered for so many tiny files (self induced dDOS ?).

Noob question.

When I look at my baseband I see JFD. I'm running stock TW and not rooted.

Is this an "Unofficial" Official update to the Vibrant? My GPS Sucks as of lately, it worked before now it doesn't

Download KIES
http://www.samsung.com/ae/consumer/...XSG/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail&tab=support

Put phone in KIES mode
- settings - applications - usb settings - Samsung KIES..

Back out to Home screen or KIES connection will not work...

Start KIES...plug in phone....you should begin to see an MTP mode screen on the phone....

After a bit (KIES takes forever to start) you should be in. Assuming your running a JFD derivative firmware (I was running Bionix 1.3 when I updated) you should be ok.

Your mileage may vary... :)

How do you back out to your home screen. No matter what I try it sits on the MTP screen. Kies just says connecting forever. In the past 2 months I have only gotten my phone to connect to Kies twice.

Perhaps if everybody take their Kies complaints to another thread and write a little more on the actual update, we will have more info to figure out if we should pool the trigger or not.

Confused

First off.... kies only works on PCs, right? I can go into parallels and see if it works.

But, more importantly.... where does JI5 come from? If I have RyanZAs lagfix on the phone, should I uninstall it? Is this the froyo we have been waiting for?

    mine has worked since JI2

    Yea its fine after i re flashed it again.

    Stupid me the first time i flashed and tried changing my battery icon with one from other thread and it screwed up and my phone wouldn't load to desktop.
    So i took an nadroid backup from previous stock update and loaded that and by doing so it removed all the new software,fixes ..ect

    but im fine now
    Compass, and GPS work great
