Is it possible? kies recognised update - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, all
I have read through and read again trying to find a way to get my tab recognised in kies after playing with ics and custom ROMs as such.
I am trying to restore it to what it was like when I bought it, it is a UK o2 model, and I had 2.3.3 on before.
AS I SAID ITS A UK O2 MODEL, so would like to flash it back to o2 uk, I know I can go to samfirmware.com and flash through Odin but the wifi drops for me after I have used this method, if I have a fault with my wifi IC I want to return to Samsung and get a replacement

Thanks for looking but its now done

Did you manage to get this sorted out? If yes how and did Kies recognize your device and showed you an update was available?

[Q] Latest Kies But Device Version Cannot be Updated

I am only on Firmware Verion XXJF3 and I know that a newer version is avaiable. Yet for some weird reason my Kies application does not recognise this. I thought getting the new version would help and today I got the latest Kies 1.5.3.10103_100 but still no joy :-(
Also my phone was purchased on Orange Contract if this helps
any ideas please?
I think it's because the phone is an Orange contract phone, Samsung have said Froyo has been released but won't be available for contract phone users until about the end of this month.

Thanks for the reply. Im surprised that even the newer version JM1 is not avaiable as opposed to Froy. I would have thought that at least I could update to this version :-(
device's version cannot be updated
Hi,
When I select firmware upgrade from Kies, I get this information:
Model Name: GT-9000
CurrentVersion: PDA:JF3/Phone:JF3
This device's version cannot be updated.
I have done a factory reset to my phone and even unrooted the phone but still i am getting the same error.
I have tried to reinstall Kies as well but no luck.
Did any one find any think on this.

Hi,
I have a question that's related.
If you have an Orange contract phone, but have flashed with a firmware to remove Orange branding, does Kies then think that your phone is non-contract and subsequently update it?
Thanks!

[Q] Still can't get stock fw on properly

Hi if someone can help id really apprteciate it. Dunno why this is confusing me so much.
Anyway I want to put stock uk firmware on my galaxy s so I can sell. Pretty sure it was the unlocked stock firmware.
I tried doing the reg hack on kies - it finds update and then says device version wrong.
I tried using spooffw - for some reason it updates the pda ok but doesnt update phone/csc (click ok and it reverts back to whatever it was on before)
I tried installing JM1 from samfirmwares and whent into kies and again says cannot update on this device.
Can anyone tell me what I need to flash onto this bloody phone so I can get kies to upgrade to the oficial fw.
I would like to put on a 2.1 rom and then have kies upgrade then I know its stock. I downloaded jf3 but that didnt come with phone or csc ? where would I get them?
first of all its not a bloody phone
then why you want to use kies? you can flash a rom by odin easily, just do some study for how to flash a rom and proceed,
kies sometimes have strange behaviours, personally I never used kies after I tried it once
I take it you want not the stock rom but the rom provided by the phone provider .
Two routes one replace the original rom you saved .
two flash stock rom lower version than current rom on Kies . Use a method of spoofing the correct codes for the original product .
Kies only updates if the correct codes for product firmware device and hardware are showing . Once you go the unofficial flashing firmware route Kies may not find these codes until you find the correct codes .
Stock = Samsung firmware Original = network branded that came with the phone .

Hi flashing a rom isn't the problem but flashing a rom that makes my i9000 appear un tainted by custom roms etc is where I'm having the difficulty. I wanted to do the final update via kies then I would know that kies thinks my phone has genuine firmware. If it wont update via kies then this is a clear message that the phone has been tampered with and I may not get the money from the company.

You are right I want original firmware. Main problem is I have no idea what this would have been. I didn't make a copy as my first upgrade involved doing a kies reg hack before there were any custom roms and I stupidly didn't take note of what I was currently on. What I do know is that my phone has never had any operator logos or software on it. (unlike my gs2)
I have tried doing the reg hack on kies 2.0 but apparently thats not properly supported yet (can I use an older kies 1.5 or something? or will it ask to be upgraded?)
I have tried using spooffw but step 3 (where you set phone and csc) doesnt work, when you press ok is reverts back to whatever it had on before no matter the value you enter.
Does anyone know of an o2 stock firmware that has been uploaded somewhere? ideally with pit, csc modem and pda. then I can hopefully use odin and then confirm that all is ok in kies?
Or if I am going to go the spoof route (probably with kies 1.5 as 2 is not playing ball) does anyone know what values I should use for each?
Thanks
well on www.samfirmware.com there is a list right at the bottom for provider FW, maybe one of them is o2 firmware, check it and see if any of them stand out as the one you had firstly.
why do you need o2 firmware specifically ??
you can sell your phone with JPY 2.2.1 stock and no one would be the wiser .

jpy? so is that a firmware you could actually get on a device brought in uk? which specific download should I choose? Once downloaded and flashed if I connect to kies will it be able to do future updates?
EDIT woohoo I did as you said and used UK JPY found here
http://www.multiupload.com/PZNPALHVDW
and its now being picked up in kies saying latest firmware installed. Excellent now I can sell it without worrying.
bit sad it was definately the best phone ive owned and there still doesnt seem to be much out there that can push it to its limits (let alone the s2) still the extra screen size and better pixel layout are definately worth the upgrade.
Thanks everyone for your help.
If thats not it i uploaded O2 JPY within the last month linked in two posts .Dont know where though .Its probably mine on Sammy anyway .
Flashed direct as PDA via Odin . If problems after with modem . Unzip file extract modem flash file again as PDA and also the modem file is what i did .

[Q] Unable to upgrade through KIES after motherboard replacement?

Today i got my phone back after a hardbrick, with a replaced motherboard, so extremely happy about that.
But the downside is, when i connect my note to my computer and open kies it says this:
Your Device does not support software upgrading via Kies.
Current firmware version: N7000XXLA6/N7000XENLA1/N7000XXLA4/N7000XXLA6 (XXX)
Could this be caused by the motherboard replacement i've recently got? In the way that parts of software does not match anymore?
second: Is there a non root fix for this?? No??!! any other fix?
Greetings Sam
Edit: before the hardbrick/motherboard swap, Kies searched/found updates
Your Device does not support software upgrading via Kies.
I have very same issue. Logic board replaced and since that Kies says no support for my device.
Current firmware version: PDA:LA6 / PHONE:LA4 / CSC:LA1 (XXX)
I would like to go into ICS but I am worried to do any firmware changes, in case they will not accept any other replacements if any issues. Any advice?
Thanks
I think its down to your computer already reconising the device as it was before try uninstalling kias and reinstall
I've did a connection troubleshoot problem checker thing. But that didn't help.. I'll try reinstalling the whole program+drivers maybe that's it?
i have same problem too.。 i already reinstall my pc windows 7. but it doesnt solve the problem.. i also unrootred my sgn ..but still the same
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
As i expected, reinstalling didn't do the trick. So any other options?
E-mailed samsung yesterday but that will probarbly cost a week before i get an answer back that will not help.
dr ketan help me ..it seems that the csc not matching see my posting here

Do This; i Got this Here On This Forum.
Change your CSC Code to German and upgrade via KIES; this will also factory reset your phone.
so on phone :
*#272*IMEI# then change the CSC to DBT.
Phone will reset.
Change language to English (bottom right icon)
follow prompts to setup
Connect to KIES and the phone will update to ICS.
When your finished, you change the CSC code back to whatever you had before

thanks, allready tried that.. I have one with only XEN, nothing to choose further..
What i just did, flashed back to the first ROM available for my phone and country, still not working with Kies... But OTA updates did work, so if a new update is available i will receive it OTA i guess
Happy enough about that, dont really have the need to be rooted or have a custom ROM after the first attempt went really wrong(reason boardswap) but i like to have a fully working phone, also when connecting it to the Computer
I have tried do this too, but it will not let me change current CSC XEU. Don't know why. I have also tried copy and paste but no luck (
Once more! Flash change CSC change imei pray to God wipe rewipe ALL OF THEMA WILL NOT REPAIR IT send it to service center if it comes so back try to get a replacement/refund.

new kies update fixed it?
I had this exact same problem. But now looks like it's fixed. All of a sudden my Kies has started to recognize the fimware and tells me that the current version is the latest version!
So the new update of Kies fixed it?
My kies version is 2.3.2.12054_19

From Serge75 : Hi gentleman ! could you try to send me your version 2.3.2.12054_19, I dont succeed to upgrade my version, looks like upgrading, but when I restart it, it's still with the previous installed version...
I guess installing it manually would more effecient. Could you send to me to [email protected], or could you give me a direct link where I could charge it directly, because Samsung Kies is not showing it ...
My greatest thanks and best regards
Could anyone tell me if I must change the Kies Version for the last in order to get the new ICS upgrade, or could I get it with any older Kies version ?

[Q] Note ICS Update question

Hello guys,
I bought my wife a Galaxy Note for her birthday last month. I have been waiting for the ICS update to show up on the phone and I have gotten nothing. I go into settings > about phone > update, it says phone is up to date. I tried Kies on two different laptops and it says GT-N7000 does not support initializing. I have removed Kies and reinstalled it, but no luck.
I did more digging to see where my phone was meant to be sent. The model is N7000XXLA4, so according to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356325 , my phone is the one meant for Germany. Yet they got their updates almost 2 months ago. I have tried a factory reset on the phone but still no luck. Can anyone let me know what I am doing wrong?
PS: I know how to root and install ROMs. As the phone is not for me, I really want to stick to the official updates.
Thanks!
Is the phone rooted? That'll break any updates.

No man, never rooted the phone.
Anyone?
If this is German ROM, you will get the OTA update only when you are located in Germany and connected to a German Carrier.
If you are located outside, you can download the update here

and flash with Odin 1.876 (same link).

My gnote issue

hey all,
i'm new to the forums here at xda-developers but i'm in ire need of some advice/help if you would not mind sharing your experience.
Okay the issue.
I have a galaxy note gt-n7000, it will not update via kies or via the phone itself at all for months. I'm from England and i purchased it on contract from carphone warehouse; some vital information about the phone are as follows:
Android version - 2.3.6
Baseband version - N7000XXLPT
Kernel Version - 2.6.35.7-N7000LA6-CL907341 [email protected] #2
Build bumber - GINGERBREAD.XXLA6
CSC - XEU
I have tried several things to fix this such as:
Factory restting everything - the sd card, the phone... No eval.
Attempting to change the CSC to a different one from XEU
Waiting to see if any more updates are as followed
reconnecting/rebotting my phone to ensure the connection is okay to Kies
Another issue of this phone is that it will not download anything from the website such as bus timetable PPFs in which it used to be beforehand, i am completely stumped by it
thanks for your time to read this and hopefully help,
Nozz.
P.S I don't really want to root my phone cause my warranty will void otherwise.
have you updated the kies? use latest version of kies to update it should work.
Since youre factory resetting, i presume you dont care for any data loss... You can go to recovery (turn off phone then press and hold volume up+power+home until the phone turns on) then do the factory reset there... (this is not touch interface.. You have to use volume buttons and the power button to select your option):highfive:
I entrust you to do this since you said youre running 2.3.6 but DONT DO THIS if you manage to get to Ice cream sandwich!!! We can never stop reminding people of this... DONT EVEN DARE to factory reset under settings on a stock Ice cream sandwich n7000..

Yeah, according to Kies it is the updated version, and i also updated a galaxy s2 with it to ICS the other day...
Will going into recovery mode then factory resetting it work ?
thanks for your help,
Nozz.
Just factory resetted it, and once again it is coming up with it saying it is not possible tp update Via Kies :/
And Kies is fully updated
Also another thing i forgot to mention, the phone wants an update has it says new firmware is available through downloading from the phone then installing that way, however when i try this, it all goes okay, reboots, comes up with the little andriod symbol then it stops at roughly 20%, reboots and says it was unsuccessful, try updating via samsung kies.
thinking of just getting rid of it, but it's a contract.... Sigh.
nozz.
somebody made a program that you can use instead of KIES, it is called Checkfus.
google for it, or search the forum, i am sure you will find it.

Hi there,
I would suggest not to update more on Kies as Kies sometimes KIES(OTA OR the PC one) is quite not more reliable sometimes, sometimes you can upgrade sometimes you can't.(Just like a woman on her monthly periods )
Anyway, I would you recommend by just flashing it thru PC ODIN. Download your stock ICS software from this page -> www.samfirmware.com and look for the firmware on your region. Flash it and you should be good to go.
:good:
i'm quite new to flashing phones, i've flashed computer motherboard bios, but i can get inside them and change the mobo if it goes wrong however i cannot do that with a phone :/
Which one is safe for my phone, considering it's current build etc?
Advice would be appreciated.
I can't seem to find firmware that is suited for my PDA, CSC and Phone codes... Or will any UK firmware work?
Nozz.

Here you go bud ->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 (courtesy of Doc Ketan, of course)
If you narrow down a bit, there's a firmware for UK there(Carphone Warehouse to be exact)
According to CheckFus there is no such ICS update for my specific phone, aka pda/phone/csc.... hmm... and also i can't seem to find any roms for my specific phone either...
I really don't know what to do now
Could someone take alook at my numbers in my first post and help me, as i'm pretty much at the end of my tether with this phone
i'll relist my phones information:
PDA: N7000XXLA6
PHONE: N7000XXLPT
CSC: N7000XEULP4
Build Info: Friday, January 20 05:38:08 KST 2012
That build info looks slightly dodgy considering this is supposed to uk phone, and i'm pretty sure UK gingerbread didn't come out at that point... hmmm.. got me thinking.
anyhow
Thanks,
Nozz
