[Q] Update to Gingerbread via Kies from non-official firmware - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
currently my tab is on firmware version PDA:JME/Phone:JMA/CSC:JME. This is the unofficial ROM which i've used previously (Roto). i would want to go the official upgrade path but Kies is complaining that my version cannot be upgraded.
i know there's a way to spoof the firmware version using Registry Patcher for Kies but i don't know what's the official firmware version to spoof into.
Can someone help me on this?
Thanks.

What I know is that the latest version of Kies cannot be patched anymore......
Try to downlgrade/flash a firmware from samfirmware (or on this forum) for your region..... Several posts here have downgraded and updated using kies.
good luck!

Probably yes and if not you can always use the reg hack to make kies think you are on an older official rom from your region and it should show you the correct update.

[q] pda:i9000tubjg5, phone: I9000tubjg7, csc: I9000tuubjg4 ??

Hi everyone,
I've searched for references of this "UB" firmware version trying to find when a Froyo update via Kies will be available, and found virtually none.. I did find however, that this code is for Brazil.
So I wondered, does anyone know what firmware version can I use to upgrade to Froyo ?
Thanks.

How about flashing stock XXJPY (Android froyo 2.2.1) or a custom one like Doc's Rom with odin

[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.

[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] Official android version

Dear concern, i am using galaxy s i9000, i buy it a 2months used cell, as it was using gingerbread 2.3.3, i doesn't know that if it was an official gingerbread or non official, i flashed it with custom rom's, such as XXJVO, XXJVA... and in those i faced some problems i cannot upgrade the firmware version by kies r itself by the phone, so i rooted with so called official version from this link (theandroidsoul)
and now when i connect my phone with kies it has the same problem "your firmware cannot be upgrade by kies"
Can you plz help me that what should i do to get the official version of the gingerbread. Thank u very much in advance.
Go to sammobile.com and make a login account (its free). From there click on firmware and then click on smartphone and then android and so on. Then find the firmware you want. There are also pdf guides that you can follow to tell you exactly what to do.
Yep, you'll need to manually flash stock before Kies will recognize your phone and it's firmware version properly and agree to upgrade it for you.
With stock on, you can still be rooted and do all fancy things there-in, but the OTA upgrades can and usually do break it.
There are also ROMs that are pre-modded/rooted versions of the official firmware that might interest you, and save you some time.
official version
