[Q] Kies says "this firmware cannot be upgraded" what do I do now?

Hey guys,
So I brought my samsung galaxy s from UAE, and since there was no market installed, I had to use *#2720# and then change it to xsg to get market. I am satisfied with my phone,i have oclf and launcher pro and it's working fine.
I just installed the latest version of kies in hope to install froyo but it says firmware cannot be upgraded.
PDA I9000JPJG8
PHONE I9000JXJG2
CSC I9000JPJG9
Any idea what course of action I should take now?

[Q] It's my tab cant upgrade gingerbread?

Hi, it's my tab cant upgrade to gingerbread? Even the when the official firmware available in malaysia?
Coz my fren using galaxy ace, is show diff from me
"This version of device is the latest version"
Mine
"This version of device cannot be updated"
Current firmware version: PDA:KM3 / PHONE:KM1 / CSC:KM2 (XME)
Thanks!

You have to manually flash gingerbread. It may not officially be available in your country yet, but you can still get gingerbread. Search tab development thread for gingerbread rom.
Hit thanks if i have helped.

Thanks.
But I'm confused tat, if when my country available the firmware update, i still cant upgrade it?
I'm scared tat i cant upgrade the official firmware, cos mine still under warranty so plan to upgrade the official if can.
I get the info from some others chinese forum, some of the version cannot be upgrade to gingerbread. It's true?

The case may be that the country/region server does not yet recognize the
current firmware version (PDA:KM3 / PHONE:KM1 / CSC:KM2 (XME)) that you have. i also get that notice when i tried KM3_KM1_KM2 on my tab. i'm from the philippines and as per experience the only firmware that my kies recognizes for is the one that came with my tab when i bought it which is p1000dxjk2.
hopefully, when they "officially" roll it out for SE Asia, we will be able to update through kies. but for now i'm enjoying the stock gingerbread + CF-Root by chainfire.

Which firmware

Being in the UK and having a UK Note, our Notes seem to be pretty unspotted where official updates are concerned. After getting the phone in November there has only been one OTA released.
After reading on here you can download newer firmware from the sammobile suite and flash it using Odin, i have a question.
What are the ramifications of downloading a non UK firmware update onto a UK device? The latest seems to be an Indian update. If i were to install this update how would the ROM be different from the UK version?
Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm in the same situation as you mate. A week or two ago I got fed up and flashed LB1 via pc odin. The only ramifications of having a mismatched csc are that you can't do ota updates. But to be honest, I figured we in the UK would be unlikely to get them first in any case, so we can just continue to flash latest versions as soon as they are released here on xda regardless of region via pc odin anyway.
(I've since changed my csc to dbt, and rooted anyway, but that's beside the point)

[Q] Kies Firmware update problem

Hello all,
I have tried to search regarding this issue but did not get any real clear answer to have to solve the problem.
When I check for new firmware for my Galaxy tab 8.9 (GT-P7300) in Kies it says: your device does not support software upgrading via kies
I have had different firmwares in my tab latest ICS_CM9, but I tried to restore original firmware with Clockwork_Recovery_5.5.0.4
But somehow my backup does not seam to be approved by Kies.
When my tab was brand new I wrote down the info from About and this is the data:
Model Number: GT-P7300
Android Version : 3.1
Baseband Version : P7300XXKHC
Kernel version : 2.6.36.3 [email protected]#1 SHP PREEMPT fri Sep 2 16:00:16 KST 2011
Build number : HMJ37 P7300XWKI1
Also could someone from that data say what country model this Tab is supposed to be, I live in Finland (and its bought here) but I don´t get it to add up ...
Any ideas how to get kies to approve my firmware? Soon ICS will be released by Samsung and I like to test the official version. And to do that I probably need to have kies up and running.
This as I like to do it official way , and not true Odin ...

You need to reflash stock firmware, and remove root if you are rooted. Then kies will work.

I now tried to reflash stock firmware to something i thing was same version as I had from the beginning (http://hotfile.com/dl/145798475/58cc500/P7300XWKI1.zip.html).
I also removed root rights and put back stock recovery, but now kies don't even see what software version i have on my Tab. current software version is blank.
Any more ideas ?

Install app name check fus, it tell you tab product code.
Download lastest stock rom from sammobile.com by select the match version of rom with your product.
Samsung Kies will upgrade only if you have right version of match firmware and product code.
cheers

Thanks for this info, learned some more but still no luck as sammobile.com don't seam to have my product codes firmware?
Product code was : GT-P7300UWANEE
Any ides for download place ?

Firstly, Odin is the official way. Samsung service centers use Odin to flash firmware on devices. If official ICS will be released, I'm sure we will get a Odin flashable .tar long before the update will show up in Kies for your Nordic tab. So i don't see the point in worrying about Kies, infact i have never used Kies to update any of my Samsung devices. I just don't trust this crappy software.
If you still want to locate your stock rom then send me a PM, i believe i can help you.

[Q] Firmware update problem

I flashed my phone a while back with a 2.36 firmware, i wasn't really sure what i was doing but it worked ok but said that doesn't support uprgrading via kies. I just flashed it again with a samsung firmware version :
PDA I9000XXJW4 CSC I9000OXAJW4 from samfirmware but it still says the same in kies. i noticed that under firmware information it says:
Current firmware version: I9000XXJW4/I9000OXAJW4/I9000OXXJW4/I9000OXXJW4 (KOR) i thought this was a UK/IRE firmware, could someone explain to me why it's saying (KOR)?
i beleived (perhaps incorrectly) that i could go back to original samsung software at a later stage.
thanks in advance
