this is a bios 08QA fault. You should manually turn back to bios 07QA (download from here http://sbuservice.samsungmobile.com/upload/BIOSUpdateItem/ITEM_20120521_535_WIN_07QA.exe) it won't update automaticly you should extract files from the .exe by setting permittions on __Samsung_Update folder in %temp% forbidding deleting files only allowing creation, so that program count't delete them after quiting/ you'll fing 07QA.rom there and then run "winflash.exe 07QA.rom /svs /sv /sd" flash the bios manually. then you'll be able to flash 09QA bios

Hi, I had the same problem I simply downloaded this custom 07QA bios from the link below:

http://www.mediafire.com/?zgyk15qydj7kp85

Once you have downloaded the .rar file you need to extract it and run the file named "Flash" from the extracted folder (this file has .bat extension) this will automatically revert your BIOS to 07QA then you can simply download lasted version (09QA) from this link:

http://sbuservice.samsungmobile.com/upload/BIOSUpdateItem/ITEM_20121108_816_WIN_09QA.exe

and run it as an Administrator to update to the latest version... Thanks
