How long does the updating takes? Mine is at the phone saying 'Downloading... Do not turn off target!!' message for almost 30 minutes. Is this normal? inb4 I use Kies to update on stock unrooted 2.3.6...

It should start within minutes not 30 mins - sudah hang already. Switch off phone , boot to download mode and retry

Thanks, but I think it may not be the case. I did the upgrade earlier via Kies from 2.3.5 to 2.3.6. The downloading of firmware and loading up to the phone is no problem. After that, the phone will automatically boot into 'Downloading... Do not turn off target!!' for few minutes, the restarts... This time, that particular screen is there for a very long time and I'm scared to turn off the phone...

So you are scared to turn it off and just let it at the download mode - fine, go ahead and leave your phone as it is than
And let the battery drain and dies off

Trust me, your phone will not brick. Take out battery wait few minutes and boot it on again

Thanks. Retrying now...

Worst scenario, your rom incomplete flash and phone fail to reboot
In such a case, boot to download mode and use ODin in PC to flash any stock rom or prerooted rom to revive it

Thanks for the suggestion. The phone booted into 2.3.6 stock. If still fails, can I boot into download mode and flash the official ICS using ODin PC?

Yes definitely

Thank you very much. notworthy.gif Actually, the first time the upgrade fails, there is a message from Kies saying the phone is not recognized (WTF??) after downloaded the firmware and asked me to reboot the phone to retry. I ignored the message. Now it's upgrading (with a progress bar in the download mode). Should be just a few minutes more...

From official ICS, I like the show battery percentage in notification bar.. No need battery widget anymore biggrin.gif

There's also a torch widget which has 3 levels of LED brightness. I ditch the touch app as well. biggrin.gif
