A guy here with a Galaxy S says he put the latest version of "KIES" on his PC and could then upgrade to 2.3. I don't have an Android phone and don't even really know what "KIES" is but maybe that information is useful? Maybe it doesn't apply if your existing firmware is wiped... James

I've got a Galaxy S that I want to use for Cyanogenmod. I went through the part of the above that starts with "assumes the Samsung Galaxy S already has Android 2.3" while my phone had Android 2.2. The result is that it just flashes on the kernel boot screen.
I can still get into download mode so all is not lost (yet).

I tried getting other zImage files from the above, I tried the 2011 March copy of Android 2.2 from the "America Australia Samsung I9000 Firmwares" section of the above.

I also tried the 2.3.5 from the above. Neither worked.
Any suggestions on what I should try next? The phone came from Optus and was running Android 2.2 when I got it.
