Official Samsung Galaxy I5500 ROMs - Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500

NOTE: I do not plan to update this software library anymore. It looks like Samsung won't push any newer version of their firmware in future. We are already happy to have an official fully working FroYo 2.2.2 on our budget phone. We also have a decently working CyanogenMod 7 port by psyke83 and there are first steps in porting CyanogenMod 9 by motafoca. Thanks to them for their endless efforts to bring latest Android versions to our gadget
I've created a separate thread for all the things concerning the official GT-I5500 ROM files released by Samsung. I've used my short product codes list and LuffarJoh's Check Fus Downloader utility in order to fetch this ROM archive from Samsung's own KIES update servers.
These ROMs are built to run on GT-I5500/GT-I5500B/GT-I5500L products. All Galaxy 5 phones have the same hardware but you are advised to use the version for a region as near to your location as possible. Why? Because baseband version could be different from region to region. If you are from Canada and try to use an European firmware, do not wonder if your phone could not connect to the 3G network.
The author of this thread could not be held responsible for any damage made to your phone while using this archive. Remember, you are doing all of this at your own risk.

Upgrading your I5500 device firmware using ODIN
The writer of this manual couldn't be held responsible for any damage that you could make to your phone by following or not following correctly this short guide. This is not a ROM backup guide. If you want to backup your current ROM before experimenting with this guide, please dig on the web and find the right guide for backing up your working ROM.
Possible reasons for flashing another stock ROM to your device:
1. You would like to make your device upgradeable via KIES and get rid of annoying "This device can't be updated" KIES message. Author note: I do not know why would one need KIES updates any longer as no more stock firmware updates by Samsung for the Galaxy Europa are expected in future. Samsung customer support was clear enough that Samsung do not plan to bring Android 2.3 for the device, no matter that it is stil being sold by mobile operators and phone shops.
2. You would like to use a different language version. While previous Android 2.1 builds for the Galaxy Europa had all the languages in one place, since Samsung introduced Android 2.2 for this phone they've split the Android translations to regions (eg. Western Europe, Eastern Europa, Latin America etc.).
3. You just relocated in another country and your phone couldn't connect to the 3G network. As I noted in the previous post this could be solved by using the correct baseband version for your region.
4. You wanna go back to stock ROM before getting rid of your phone on eBay. And maybe the buyer of your phone is located in different country using different broadband.
5. Your phone has hardware issues and you wanna use Samsung repair service. Now this is a very credible reason to switch back your Galaxy Europa to Samsung's original stock ROM.
Please, note that latest CyanogenMod ports by psyke83 from MADTEAM work very nice and have less and less issues. They are using more open source software, better sensors driver, they come rooted out-of-the-box and will be supported longer than Samsung's own firmware. You may go to MADTEAM forum, read carefully the CM7 port manual and give CM7 a try. If you are not convinced to switch to CyanogenMod port by MADTEAM yet, then you may proceed by flashing latest official Samsung ROM for your device.
And once again if you missed the first line of this posting: Author of this manual could not be held accountable for any damaged or bricked devices. You are following this manual on your own risk!
I. Finding phone's Product Code
Just dial the following code like if you are dialing a regular phone number
Code:
*2767*4387264636#
and you will get some message on screen looking like this
Code:
[2] PCode:GT-I5500YKA[COLOR=Red][B]XEU[/B][/COLOR]
After learning your product code it is time to browse the following list and download the appropriate firmware version for your device, then upload .tar file using the Odin Multi Downloader 4.28, found at the bottom of this manual. Please, check One Package mode in Odin and load the tar file downloaded from our firmware library and DO NOT FORGET to also load the EUROPA_v1.0.ops file included in Odin archive.

}
II. Entering download mode
Not it is time to enter the device in Download mode so you could upload the firmware to it using the Odin Multi Downloader. Just turn off your Galaxy Europa and when device is turned off push and keep pushed in this order the keys: VOL DN, CONFIRM KEY, POWER/END (these are the key you use to lower the sound volume, the big rounded key and the key you use to turn on/off the phone). A few seconds later you will see an yellow under construction android robot sign saying Downloading...
III. Plug the phone and pray
Now plug your phone cable while Odin is running and loaded with the right tar or tar.md5 file. The first field in the left of the Odin window will go yellow and show you something like 1 (COM 1). Now it is time to click the Odin start button and wait for the firmware upload to complete. If it takes ages to complete or download fails your are not lost yet. Just restart Odin and if needed remove and place back in phone's batter while it's cable unplugged and reenter ind download mode. Then restart the upload process.
IV. All is done
When upload finishes fine, you have your phone updated with a stock ROM of your choice.
You could download Odin Multi Downloader 4.28 HERE.

Why dont you try it yourself? use this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032437
Its pretty easy
though your PDA CSC and Phone codes dont make much sense... But I have no clew about canadian firmware. I tried couldnt find it, perhaps you need to do some more reading.

I saw on XDA that the Netherlands didn't have a android 2.2 update.
I asked Samsung Netherlands, they confirmed and also said it wasn't sure there ever will be one...
Yesterday is decided to flash my phone with a europe-version. The cyanogenmodversion came in a loop, so i searched further...
hotfile (downloadsite) gave an error (said i was downloading, but the download broke so after that i couldn't download via this site (samfrmware uses it).
googled for the same file (I5500XWJPJ), found it but after the dowload the package contained... I5500NEEJP3 (which is originally for Sweden).
I flashed my phone anyway and... strangely it worked perfect!!
rooted it with UniversalAndroot and after that had a perfect working rooted phone!
Amazing discovery: my phone has Dutch language, swipe is also in Dutch!
How can this be? And why don't they release this version as working 2.2 via KIES?

Hello!
Is there a "complete idiots" guide to updating the Galaxy 5? I am a total newbie in regards to this stuff. I live in the USA.
I just bought this phone to use while travlling overseas in a few weeks. It is unlocked, and I was able to download Kies from the Australian samsung website.
Phone connects, but it says "This is the latest Firmware"
PDA:JK3/Phone:jk3/csc:jk3 (TPH).
sellout sms: off
Pcode: gt-i5500cwatph (Portigal)
mode: test
How do I get it download the 2.2 update?
Did I do something wrong?
Do I have to configure Kies somehow to think it is not in the USA?
I have yet to pick a country store in Kies.
Also, when I gointo Kies options, there is place to "download firmware automatically", I have checked the box, but there is not any phone listed in the area where the phone should be, even with the phone connected.
I have not put in a SIM card yet, but put in a micro SD card.

Does anyone know what the "...CWATPH " Stands for?
All the other phone codes start with " YK"
See my post above ...
Thanks

While Im Portuguese I Dont live in Portugal so I have no idea... BUT
TPH is for Portugal I have no idea what the other letters stand for.
My phone now upgraded to official froyo via KIES says Product code is GT-I5500YKACPW so my educated guess is that perhaps its related to your Firmware version?
This all depends where you purchased the phone for instance if you bought it unlocked you didn't buy it from a Vodafone store nor a TMN store nor a Optimus store... This is because by rule of thumb These are network providers and They 99% of the time don't sell unlocked mobiles... Same here in UK where I live.
Those extra characters could be all attached to the special identifier firmware for this company... Or date year time of manufacture.
In UK you have companies that sell phones unlocked but always with a network sim as part of the deal, for instance mine was bought in Car phone warehouse with a orange network sim (though i use it on O2.
Another company that sells phones like that in UK is Phones4U I haven't a clew what their identifier would be like, only you know where and who you purchased the mobile from.... Hopefully from legal proper retailer....
My phone retailer code is CPW your is TPH I haven't been to Portugal in 6 years so idk who that is.
Also your KIES Upgrades phones hopefully by their codes not what country they are connecting from, if this is not a case try a proxy.
Its quite possible that whoever company sold you the phone has not released the froyo officially. It took CPW = car phone warehouse 6+ months after all other networks had released froyo officially.
You can:
A) make a backup of your current firmware
B) Flash froyo using a 3rd party tool
C) try to email the company who sold you the phone and find out.
But always backup your original firmware.... whatever you do.

I think I may have figured it out. On a few samsung devices and tablets, the "cwa" is followed by the phrase "chic white".
So I think that the cwa stands for the white casing on the phone ( which is mine).
I got the phone from a local no name dealer, and the box was a bit beat up. I verified that the phone worked, but I just assumed it would be upgradeable to 2.2. I don't know the history of this phone or where it came from, the "cwa" shows up on a bunch f russian websites, which I can't read.
It would be nice to upgrade it, but I don't want to risk ruining the phone.
I can't even figure out how toback up the firmware. I am a total newbie at this kind of thing.

Well google and read a lot, google also does webtranslators so you can translate whole websites, Im also a noob...
As far as I know these mobiles only made in two colors yet the codes for black vary so I thinks its a firmware identifier, but again idk they certanly dont follow any case colors.
I just looked at this post
that above links explain how to flash but not how to back up...
I5500XWJPJ
I5500XWJPL
I5508ZCKP2
I5500XWJP9
I5500LUYJP2
I5500XWJJ6
I5500XWJH4
I5500XWJI1
I5500XWJI2
and then looked at this thread we are in as well
If there is a firmware able backup tool I have no idea, but only backup if you going to flash with a non official rom. Heck in your case does it even matter? The phone was purchased in Portugal and your in USA are you going to fly to Portugal for warranty reasons? Just postage you can go buy a new one...
Im pretty sure thers shops that you can go and give someone a few dollars to fix your phone for you if you bugger it up.

TPH
Bear with me guys this is my first post,
On a recent trip to Carvoeiro I stopped off at a supermarket (for Beer ) and saw what looked like Carphone Warehouse - same colours, font, advertising style etc and it was called The Phone House TPH...
Just a thought

sorry failed post

I am in process of updating all the links of the stock ROMs in my first post of this thread.
I've noticed that multiupload mirroring service is no longer working now.
Within a day or two the complete ROM library will be back online, so, please, be patient!
I do not plan to make more updates to this firmware list as Samsung itself seems to have stopped updating the Galaxy Europa device. There are five or more months without a single update of the device from KIES, no matter that the phone is still being sold by mobile operators.

I've updated all stock ROMs, so it is up to you to enjoy the links as long as they last.
I will not update these links anymore, no matter if they become unavailable at some point.

Hi chillvisio, I updated my wife galaxy 5 I5500B with the JP9/JP6/JP9 rom ... the phone was unlocked (from Fastshop store) without any operator trash, so I used this rom that seems to be the retail one ... now the phone is waking up from time to time when it is in standby ... the screen turns on and off without any user intervention ... this seems to be a bug but I didn't found any possible solution ... the battery consumption increased a lot and I suspect that this bug that is generating this problem. Do you have any idea how to fix it ?
Thanks for your help.

Olá, daniel_ar,
feel free to try some other ROM, for example the I5500L ARO version (UYJPO). Brazilian version is pre-loaded with some 'extra' apps and some of them may have battery draining issues. I am using the UYJPO version flashed with Brazilian baseband over it and rooted with SuperOneClick and have no battery draining issues. The I5500L version also feature Português do Brasil translation ;-)
P.S. How about the battery draining issues, I've also noticed that some very useful applications like AdFree and LBE Privacy Guard are also draining battery. If you still have battery draining issues after reinstalling with UYJPO version you may reset phone to factory settings and start installing your additional apps one after another with some 6-7 hours gaps between them and test which one is draining your battery.

Can i flash using cwm recovery???
I do not have access to a desktop in this moments so i would like to know if i can install the stocks roms using cwm..

[Q] How do I know I have the latest software available?

Hello!
I wanted to check how I am sure that I have the latest version available for my phone?
These are the details:
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband Version: i9100UHKE2
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-i9100UHKE2-CL188078 [email protected] #2

Compilation: GINGERBREAD.UHKE2
Current Firmware Version: PDA:KE2 / PHONE:KE2 / CSC:KD1 (TPA)
Is this the latest one? Is there a way to update if it isn't?
I purchased this phone through a store in US. I live in Costa Rica..
It is Factory Unlocked.. But I've had some issues with it..
For example:
I access on the phone the option de Update Firmware or Check for updates.
It asks me to create a Samsung Account.
I entered all the details and I clicked on "Create Account"
And it loads the Terms and Conditions. I clicked ACCEPT and it goes to a screen that says "Loading" and it goes again to the "Terms and Conditions"... I clicked ACCEPT -> Loading -> Terms and Conditions.. etc.. haha.
Thanks! Any information will be appreciated.
Connect to Kies, it should say if you have any latest firmware available.
Regards.
Newest firmware leak is KG3 which is android 2.3.4 you can install it via odin or wait for a kies release.

I wanted to check how I am sure that I have the latest version available for my phone?
As posted Kies will give latest firmware for your phone . That may not be the latest release and may be a few upgrades behind .But it is the one for your phone .
XDA for alternative methods stock rom post dev section ..
You can also try the software update in settings but its yet to roll out worldwide via that OTA method .

i wouldn't use kies for update. i destoyed my sgs 1 twice by flashing an original firmware update. just go to samfirmware.com . U have to register but you can always sure to be up2date. All firmwares are flashable by odin. instructions included.
e.g. newest firmware now is

Looking for stock rom Claro Ecuador

Hello,
I'm looking for this stock rom :
Country/Provider: Ecuador - Claro
PDA: I9100UHKG7
CSC: I9100ECOKG1
Phone: I9100UHKG4
Version: Android 2.6.35.7 Gingerbread
PCODE: GTI9100LKLECO
HIDSWVER: I9100UHKG7/I9100ECOKG1/I9100UHKG4/I9100UHKG7
kernel version [email protected] #2
I have tried in several places including samfirmware.com with no luck.
According to CheckFus downloader and http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9100 there isn't an official ROM for Ecuador at the moment.
You can try a ROM for Chile (Claro) or Brazil (Claro or unbranded). Actually, you can try any ROM for samsung-updates.com (as long as it's for GT-I9100) because they'll all work with your phone and they all contain Spanish. As for Phone versions, they European ROMs are much better than the Latin American ROMs.
I am from Brazil (Claro) and I am using an European ROM (Nordic Countries, unbranded). It works flawlessly. Using Odin you can have it up and running in less than 3 minutes.
Hi Simonetti2011,
Well, my S2 came with that firmware preinstalled so I'm guessing it is another official firmware (probably from Claro Jamaica) modified for my country and carrier.
I'm using the Australian (UNBRANDED) XWLP8 (ics 4.0.3) without issues as well.
However in the event I want to sell it, I'd hope I could go back to the originial stock firmware.
I did take the precaution of doing a Nandroid backup, but I have read problems of restoring them. The safest way would be to flash the stock rom back.
So, thanks anyway, if you or anyone else gets your hand in that stock firmware, please do share.
EDIT: After your post, I decided to give it another try and find the firmware with CheckFus, but using the Advanced tab. Well, after entering the necessary data, IT FOUND the firmware! GT-I9100_ECO_1_20111005162240.zip (302MB). I confirmed it as well at http://fus.nanzen.se/, by entering the following data:
Model: GT-I9100
Product Code: GTI9100LKLECO
HIDSWVER: I9100UHKG7/I9100ECOKG1/I9100UHKG4/I9100UHKG7
So, now I have it, the original firmware for Ecuador, Claro carrier.

[Q] i9100XXKE4 still running on 2.3.3 - how to update?

A friend of mine has a samsung galaxy s2 with basebandversion I9100XXKE4 and when i looked which version of android it was running i was surprised to see version 2.3.3 was installed. Because i had version 2.3.5 before i used another baseband version update to go to ICS ... Looking arround on the web i could not find a more recent version of Android for her phone. (btw also still no official ICS version for the i9100XXKI3) So I had on my phone a baseband version I9100XXKI3 and i updated using Odin with an ICS package which had I9100XXLPR baseband No problems until now. Now running CM9.
You guys think i can also use this (xxLPR)package to update her I9100XXKE4 ?
We both live in HK. Only difference is she is on PCCW and i am on Smartone

XX ROM series had plenty of official updates after 2.3.3, among them three ICS ROMs. Latest is LPW.
Just follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
and pick up whatever ROM you feel like (you may also follow your product code).

Yes, you can. Only thing is if you flash stock firmware for another region you may have problems getting OTA updates for your region in the future. Which isn't a huge problem as you can also simply flash these via Odin when they're released if you do have difficulties.
I've had a look at Checkfus (PC version) & it tells me most recent update for I9100/Hong Kong was ZSLPG on 06/04/2012. So I guess you could go with LPR like you did, or you could get Checkfus & use this ICS build, which might mean no problems with OTA updates in the future (but no guarantees).

[Q] Can I install any region Stock ROM while upgrading to Android 4.0.4

Hi Droiders,
I use Galaxy S2 (Android 4.0.3). Last night I had rooted my phone successfully.
Now I want to update my firmware, can anyone provide compatible Official Stock ROM of Android 4.0.4 for my phone
Can I install any region Stock ROM while upgrading ?
Additional Details:
I am from India , my current OS is Australian region (XSA) unbranded
Model NO: GT - I9100
PDA: I9100XWLP8
PHONE: I9100XXLPS
CSC: I9100XSALP4
Appreciate your help ...
Thanks,
Krishna
Couple of places you can get stock roms: Samfirmware.com, here (this site is better than Samfirmware IMHO) or with the PC version of Checkfus (search for it on Google/XDA).
Yes, you can install a stock rom for any region, but with one caveat. If you install a rom that isn't for your region, you may not be able to get future OTA updates from your carrier. Which isn't really a big deal because if your carrier does release a stock rom for your region, you could always download it with Checkfus & flash it with Odin (like almost everyone does on here).

[Q] Product Code and firmware mismatch.

I've been reading many threads with a problem similar to mine, but I think my problem is more complicated.
My phone was unlocked and debranded when I first bought it. The product code used to be (TTT)-trinidad and tobago. Someone from the technical service messed with the firmwares and changed it to this:
AP: I9300XXELLA
CP: I9300BOLK3
CSC: I9300CROLL1
This firwmare appears to be a branded croatian T-mobile. To debrand it, I used the option "Upgrade and initialisation" on Kies. After that the firmware changed to an earlier version but the product code was still CRO even though I changed the firmware. KIES didnt support this firmware, so I installed the previous firmware the one that I put on the beginning of this post (this time using ODIN).
The problem here is, that when I connect to KIES now, I get the same message: Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update via Kies only this time the firmware that appears on Kies is as follows:
Current firmware: PDA:LLA / PHONE:LK3 / CSC:LL1 (TTT)
>>>so to sum it up, it shows TTT when I install croatian firmware, and CRO when I install Trinidad and Tobago firmware
Can someone please tell me what is going on here? Which firmware do I actually have, and how can I match all these stuff , so I can upgrade firmwares in the future via Kies or OTA. My current firmware is AP: UBEMA1, CP:UBELL1, CSC: UUBELL1, while checkfus shows the product code as GT-I9300MBLCRO. Should I keep this firmware or better yet install a european one. I live in Macedonia (Europe)
I'm sorry about this long post but I'm really confused. Thank you for your time
Please delete this thread. Thank you
