“No response from server” in Firmware Upgrade…

same here.. “no response from server please check if your internet connection is activated and try again” in firmware upgrade.
whereas when i check for samsung kies update.. it checks for 2 seconds and says you already have latest version installed..
so.. may be samsung’s server is down coz they are uploading the 2.2 update.
i’ll check after couple of hours, if it still doesn’t upgrade then pity on samsung..

I have been trying this for the past 5 days.
Kies says :
Model Name : GT-I9000
Curent Version : PDA:JG4/PHONE:JG4
This device’s version cannot be updated.
Is 2.2 update for India really out ?
Also, Samsung india site gives out Kies 1.5.1 while kies 1.5.3 is out. I tried with both. Nothing works.

Guys, WAKE UP and believe that Samsung has Shitty Software yeah but awesome H/W. They destroyed 2.1 and and sure they will do the same with 2.2. So don’t wait for samsung to spoon feed you. Go to XDA developer and update your phone your self. I’m running 2.2 for last 2 months. Checkout this awesome build by DOC
