Hi Friends,

I have a WAVE S8500 which i got from the UK last year. I have downloaded the latest Kies version 2.3.0 but when i connect my handset it says that my firmware is the latest one but my phone is still on BADA 1.0. Current fw version S8500NEJE6/S8500H3GJE7 (H3G), latest FW S8500NEJE6/S8500H3GJE7 (H3G).

Please help guys i am tired of waiting, any suggestions/ recommendations will help

I'm facing the below error when i tried to update my firmware to bada 2.0

"Software update on your phone has been paused. To prevent unexpected errors continue to upgrade your firmware via samsung kies"
I'm not able to use my mobile in normal mode & able to use it only in kies mode where the menus are accessible but the phone is not detected by Kies for reflashing.
Can some one help me on this error?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Balaji
