Help Need help updating firmware from 2.1

mnbayazit

Lurker
Provider: Rogers (Canada)
Model: SAMSUNG-SGH-I896
Firmware: 2.1-update1
Baseband: I896UXJI2
Kernal: 2.6.29, root@sep-58 #2
Build: ECLAIR.UXJI2

I've tried everything, but I can't get my phone to connect with Kies on my computer. I put my phone into Kies (firmware update) mode, start kies, plug my phone in, and it just says "Connecting..." but never actually connects.

I just tried doing a factory reset, hoping that would fix my problems, reinstalled all the drivers, but I still can't get it to connect

So I tried this "SuperOneClick" root. That installed successfully, but I'm not really sure what good that does me.

Can I perhaps do some unofficial update of my firmware? I'd like to update to 2.3, or at least 2.2.

Any help appreciated!
