Samsung Infuse 4G™ (i997) - Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) Software Update

ok well after talking to a samsung rep unless you have a 32 bit pc you cant update via kies!!! WTF!!!! so no update for me cause i dont know anyone with one ugh . so stupid to wait for an update and then get stonewalled over some bits.

The update was on kids, once I got it to recognize my phone it was simple. First thing I noticed was the notification bar looked different than before
 Smaller images, battery status is vertical vs horizontal now. When you pull down the notification bar silent is gone and replaced by flight mode. Nothing was deleted as far as ringtones, contacts and photos. I did have to log back into my amazon account for the app store but that was no biggie. As for other changes I am not sure b/c I have only had the phone a week or so and just came from a phone which was running gingerbread.

 :)I removed all of the klies, reinstalled, reset phone. It would download the new GB, but not install it and the phone was locked. You had to remove battery to boot up again. I did variations ofthis for 6 hrs.
I discovered you MUST HAVE THE MEDIA PLAYER 11. This will let it go through.

There is a lot of things different.

Good luck

ok so i finally got kies mini to give me my ginger bread and now im in need of more assitance!!!  i cant for the life of me root this official gingerbread rom.  so is the truely unrootable? has anyone managed to root this gingerbread update yet?

Multiple installs and unistalls of Kies Mini last night and today.  4 different chats online with Samsung.  The last two advising me to call Samsung.  Kies Mini still shows grayed out box for the "phone upgrade".  And yes...I'm installing on a 32 bit computer. 
"As we have done all the possible steps and still we are unable to fix the issue, I request you contact our voice support at 1-888-987-4357, Mon-Fri: 7 AM - 9 PM (CST), Sat: 9 AM - 6 PM (CST), for the further support on this issue."
Right now, my phone still shows as an "unregistered device".  I did register the phone on Samsungs website last night, and it does show when I log in on Samsung.com. 
I was advised by the Customer Rep on the phone that since the software is still brand new, there is no available support for Kies Mini software.  To "wait 24 hours".  Fun is.
Just asking if anyone who actually did get GB installed, whether or not the phone was registered.  Anyone install with the phone not showing registered?

go here get this program and follow steps to go stock and unrooted and change your uck with the one they included with this odin in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116251
worked for me

gtg uckd5 yea what i did bugt surprised it didnt work for you ! have you tried odin flashing to stock and using that uckd5  and master resetting and trying again?

how do I get this update when I know no one with a 32 bit computer system? Kies will not recognize my phone and Samsung says thats the only way to get it. Will ATT FINALLY getthe update and add it to their phones or do we all have to do without the new gingerbread update. I'm not the savy on all the technical how tos so if anyone has a way to update that this idiot can understand, I would be most grateful for any help!
