Kies I replied that you can not update my model I do not know much

If Kies is reporting there is no update to your model, chances are there is no officially released update for it, and thus you can't upgrade without potentially affecting your warranty status.

[Q] Unroot to update? Galaxy Note

Hi Friends,
I see that the ICS Update will arrive sometime between may/june. i have a rooted Galaxy note using this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
i just wonder when the time comes do i have to unroot to update or can i just update.. im new at this android world so i would appreciate any help i can get, thanks
Dont worry, sure you will get update to ICS
But how you have to update this can mentioned only after release of ICS, And yes it take few hrs to know just after release of ICS, you need is to just stay tuned here.
Just remember i said above in term of keeping your root intact. If you dont want to keep root, just you can flash Stock ROM of your country anytime, N just update ICS over Kies whenever it release over Kies.
Hi,
I have similar question. Previously I had a KK5 rom before I gave my note to Samsung in warranty for screen replacement. They flashed XLA4 rom and CSC is also changed now to JPLA1. Now KIES says it cannot upgrade my ROM. My question is: is it still possible to receive OTA updates (including ICS when it is available). Please note that my phone is not rooted. Thanks in advance.
To get update with Kies/OTA
your device should have installed ROM from your region, as well CSC should also be same as your region
Check CSC with *#272*IMEI#
Remember, changing CSC will wipe off data.
Sorry to bother you again. using *#272*IMEI# shows JED (which is correct for Saudi Arabia). There are other options to choose from e.g. KSA (which I think is also for Saudi Arabia but I don't know). Do you think changing will solve the problem? And is there any other danger (other than wiping the data) with changing the CSC? Thanks again.
Nothing more thn data wipe happen after changing csc.
Your installed rom shud b same for your region as csc.
If your rom is older for region, kies will show msg, you have update. If your rom is latest for this region, kies will msg you have latest firmware.
In other condition kies won't recognise your rom n won't allow to update.

Sure, when updating to stock you will lose the root, so you dont need to worry about that...You can look around and there are ways to flashing to next version if you want to mantain the root, tools like mobile odin can help you with that..... but i do recommend you to take a look arround the forum, you like me probably end up using custom roms

[Q] I flashed Jelly Bean firmware from Russia, should I update it via Kies.

Hello I am new here and this is my first post.
I flashed the Jelly Bean update via Odin, its version was I9070XXLPY, now when I connect my phone to my PC and launch Samsung Kies, it tells me that an update is available, a new firmware I9070XXLQ4 is available.
My question is that should I update it via Kies or not, is it safe?

Thanks a lot for the quick answer my friend, I have added a thanks to you.
Something I don't understand, how will I damage my phone if I update it via kies? Isn't that stuff like, Official
And by the way, you are from the same country as I am, any ideas when we might receive the Indian Official version of Jelly Bean for i9070?

Lol. Thanks
And it might not damage your phone, but why take a risk? So, just clarified it to you
Well, I heard that we would be getting jelly bean by mid april, but still no update so far!
Samsung is just postponing the update I'm also waiting for the update :fingerscrossed:

Just one last small thing, for future reference, currently I will update to firmware LQ4, and when in future the Indian JB update rolls out, can I download it from sammobile.com and flash it over Russian LQ4 formware via Odin?

[Q] I9305 still on 4.1.1

hello,
i got a question, I wonder why my s3 is still on android 4.1.1. I cant update via kies or ota, it just says i already got the latest version. Does it have something to do with my provider (proximus) or the fact that I have the 4G version, that I seem unable to update to 4.1.2? also, i never rooted my phone and im not planning on rooting it either.
thanks

I can't see any firmware from proximus on sammobiles, so there is a chance that it has not been updated for them, if you want 4.1.2 I would download the latest unbranded rom for the i9305 (be 100% sure that the model number is correct) you can then proceed to flash this via Odin, you will not need to be rooted and it will not affect the binary counter.
I suggest the unbranded rom because that comes straight from Samsung, and contains no carrier bloatware.
Next time please post your questions in the Q&A section, as it's against the rules to post questions in general discussion, I will report the thread and ask for it to be moved to Q&A for you

Sry but you didn't read it right and it was not a Samsung statement (just a rumor), for now we wait for 4.2.2 or 4.3 on S3 and only in like 4-8 weeks at least.

I would really prefer to not do anything with my phone, I tried rooting and custom rom and all that stuff on my transformer prime tablet and that didn't end good at all, so I really dont want to ruin my S3, as I have no idea what unbranded and Odin and carrier bloatware is... And sorry for the wrong section
Also when I look on this sammobile site for firmwares, I do not see my PDA number. My Baseband version is I9305XXALJ2 and buildnumber JR003C.I9305XXALJ3. I do not see those numbers anywhere on the site, and since you said I had to be absolutely sure I have the firmware with the right number, there is no firmware for my device or..?
latest is 4.1.2 on sammobile .
Updates Kies OTA are via your vendor . They may choose not to update .

The roms on Sammobile are completely stock, but if you have a carrier branded rom, and they haven't updated you to 4.1.2, and you don't want to mess around there isn't much you can do except wait.
But if you have the I9305 you can flash any I9305 rom.
Odin is a program leaked from Samsung it's what they use to flash test devices at the factory, unbranded is just a rom that has come from the manufacturer rather than carrier, and contains no carrier based boot animations or apps etc. Bloatware is unnecessary system apps (for most people) some examples are apps from your carrier.

Man, just download generic (not branded ROM) for your region and flash it via Odin 3.0.7. It takes about 5-6 minutes to flash and you'll be OK afterwards...
I never use branded fw. Every time I buy a new phone, put it to download mode right out of box and flash generic ROM.

The Luxembourg version is now on sammobile and you should be able to update your phone via Kies. This is the version sold by Belgacom in Belgium as they also own Tango.

[Q] I'm not getting the kitkat update, should I use odin?

Hi guys, as the title says, I'm not getting the kitkat neither by ota nor kies. I have the I9395 (international variant) and it's all stock with 4.2.2. If I update through odin it will affect something?
Ps: I don't care de warranty.
Thanks in advance

Just go to sammobile.com, download the firmware you want, and flash it. Assuming you don't have a corrupted download you should be able to flash any of those firmwares using Odin or Kies.

No, because I did not want to flash that rom, I wanted to flash a newer one, so I was wondering if the knox counter would be affected, but it doesn't matter anymore, I already flashed the nk4 and all it's going great till now
Well I did something like that. I flash the newer firmware and I had too many troubles getting my phone back to work. I recommend you to try. In kies for Samsung or you may have to get it to a Samsung dealer.
