Thanks for helping, guys. Smiley I'll try updating my phone again via Kies on another computer, if it still doesn't work I guess I'll have to flash my phone.

EDIT: I have already downloaded the 2.0 FW on Samfirmware.com (the zipped folder name is S8500JVLC2_S8500OJVLC2_TUR). And I have multiloader 5.67 in my laptop. Now all I need is a good guide on flashing. Tongue

Try the other machine first, and if no success - come back here.

Did my flash slightly different. Probably making an extra step. But it works  Wink

Downloaded the Bada 1.2 JVKC1 first, then downloaded the Bada 2 update from CheckFUSDownloader.
All KIES update notifications work.  Grin

Yes, I will. Thank you so much for the help, really. Smiley

I already have Bada 1.2 JVKC1 on my Wave, so I guess if ever I would flash my phone, I would flash the 2.0 since it will be my first attempt and I don't know a lot about the CheckFUSDownloader.

I'll be back to update you about the result of trying to upgrade on another PC. Thanks again! Smiley

This is CheckFUSDownloader. It downloads it's firmware off Samsungs own servers.
Sometimes it's only an update, hence the two steps i did. (Just to be sure)

Since you already have JVKC1, all you need is this update. TUR is the country code.

But, you have already downloaded the update - so this is just some info on CheckFUS.

Oh. I get it. Thanks for the info. Smiley

The update I downloaded was for the TUR region. I hope everything goes well when I flash.

I didn't try updating the phone on another machine but instead went on and took the risk of flashing it.

And guess what? It was a success!! Smiley The process took exactly about 13 minutes. I never thought it would be that easy. I was intimidated by the flashing problems I read on the forum that's why I didn't have the courage of doing it on my phone, until now. :3

I only had a tiny glitch - when I connected my phone via Kies, it said that my phone doesn't support FW update via Kies. And I saw that my CSC was KOR instead of TUR. So, I changed the CSC back to TUR and now it's solved. Cheesy

THANK YOU SO MUCH, BBB FOR NOT GIVING UP ON ME. Smiley (+1 for that Smiley) Now I finally have 2.0!! My dad wants to use the phone now because he liked it. Haha.

Thanks to you too, Simonwil! Smiley

That's great Phoebe  Smiley That small glitch with the CSC codes causes many a problem.
Good to see you have solved it, and have a KIES updateable Bada 2 phone.

You know i'll be coming to you for my flashing help now  Tongue

Enjoy your phone.

Nah, I'm no match for your knowledge about Bada. Tongue

Yeah, I have read that the CSC glitch could cause network problems, etc. Thanks for the help again. Smiley I am definitely enjoying the phone.

Hey guys, i have one problem after the other with this phone.. Some days ago, i tried to download some apps via kies, so kies tried to make an update to my phone. For some unknown reason, the update didnt finish, and now the result is that i cant open my phone, Kies doesnt recognise my phone, and i get a 'phone-exclamationmark-laptop' icon on the screen of my S8500. I tried to connect the phone to kies, did all the options that were provided in kies, nothing worked. I use an XP laptop, mouse is USB only, router is wireless. I am not good with this, can u please help me out?(

I am providing u with some (bad quality, sorry) photos

On the first photo, u see what's on the screen of my phone, and the kies on my laptop trying to locate the phone but not succeeding. As u see, i disconnected the usb mouse, just in case

On the second and third photo, u see that i am trying to do an emergency update/retrieval, i am not sure how to translate it from greek, i insert the code but it fails.

I hope this can be helpful..
