You can change the csc to match your Rom or flash Rom from where your phone was from. Changing csc will wipe your phone.

You have no backup of original firmware then only solution is .
With Odin flash to an older version and then try Kies update .
That fails try registry hack for Kies ,

[Q] Looking for right firmware (NL)

I'm looking for a stock firmware so Kies can upgrade my firmwares again. Unfortunately I haven't written down the firmware codes before I flashed custom firmwares.
I'm looking for any version which kies recognizes in my area. I bought the tab in The Netherlands without simlock or brands, just plain Samsung. Anyone favours to help me out?
If you connect your tab to kies what is it says? This firmware cannot be updated? Or This is the latest firmware?

I live also in holland if anyone gives me instructions on how to backup my stockfirmware (without my private info) i'll be glad to help. I have a rooted stock firmware with titanium backup installed.

I got cannot update, but after a clean install of Chainfires latest stock rom and changing the CSC to XEU I got it working. Now kies says This is the latest firmware. Exactly the way I wanted it to have.

No More Kies

Hi people. I unrooted my Note using one of Dr Ketans stock roms and PC Odin. All good. Next connected to Kies to see if I could update. Kies recognised the phone but said that by phone can no longer be updated via Kies. Is that how it is after using Odin? Or is there a work-around for that? Or do I have to update with Odin from now on? Or flash myself when the Note update is released. Advice please. Thanks in advance.

If your CSC is not set according your region N/OR Your installed ROM is not yet released for your region, Kies won't recognise it.
e.g. In India Kies released ROM is DDLB2, N previosly it was XXKL3, N before that XXKK3
Now
If at present my Installed ROM is one of abve 3 N my CSC is different
OR
My CSC is set to India but Installed ROM is not 1 of above three
Then Kies says same msg as you said.
So to get update via kies /OTA then
My ROM should be 1 of three (DDLB2/XXKL3/XXKK1 for India) as well my CSC should be set to India(INU), Then only i can get it.
Thanks, I'll check and see.

Help as i just wanna have the OTA update of ics n root access nothing else
Bump
You need full stock to do that, and all matching parts of a stock version. And the same csc, in plain words the same setup your phone came with.
Anything else and no ota lol

So just a stock gb flashed through odin would do the trick? :victory:
Yes, as long as its same csc, efs is not corrupted.
Sometimes its needed to try different roms. Had it once one version didnt ota, and earlier did.

OTA / KIES Update Failing...

Hi All,
Quick bit of advice, Failing on the OTA update at the moment,
I'm running;
- Android: 4.0.3
- Baseband: N7000XXLPT
- Build: IML74K.XXLQ2
Wondering if it's the fact I am running SpeedMod K3-11 which is why it's failing? Anyone else seeing this?
If so - wondering if I can reflash the stock kernel via Mobile Odin...
I have the ROM - N7000XXLQ2_N7000XXLPT_N7000CPWLP4_HOME.tar.md5 file - Is it the case that I extract the ZImage from this file to obtain the Stock ROM Kernel?
As stated here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371007
Note: I upgraded to this current version of ICS OTA - I DID NOT flash the above file via PC Odin.
I know I could get around it by reflashing in PC Odin but I'd like to not have to go that route..
Cheers
I was facing the same problem with OTA update on my stock rooted speedmod loaded Note. I thought the custom kernel is preventing the process. So my way was to flash the whole stock rom via PC Odin. Good thing it was a non-wipe version.
And yes, the zImage you pull from the rom is the stock kernel.
Cheers,
Not sure what's up with OTA..
However think the PC KIES issue is due to the fact that once again my PC seems to have lost the drivers needed to recognise the device in Download mode..... FFS...
Conditions for kies:
Need pcode, need csc and all stock components belonging to same rom, so all stock of same rom version. No root.
Never I have read kies updated a phone if with a rom for csc a, when wanting to uodating to another csc rom, bu just changing csc.
Ota can update a rooted phone as long as components again belong to one version of stock rom. Cf kernel of that rom no, the true kernel belonging to that rom with onky root yes. Ota also succeeds without pcode, most of the time.
Another condition is intact emei, which together with pcode can be secured by flashing efs backup, but you need proper backuo then.
You can midfy pcode by hex editing certain efs files, but it most of the time to tricky to achieve. You cannot edit emei that way. So make a proper efs backup
Edit: in the end efs backup and pc odin is all you need nd a safe kernel to be able to cleanse your installation should you wish to use different version and different csc. Then again changing csc triggers reset so onky change on safe kernel
Use this knowledge wisely

Cheers Baz,
So in effect as I'm running a stock ROM I'd need to flash the stock kernel zimage extracted from the ROM in order to update...
Or, backup everything, flash the new stock in Odin and restore my stuff...
Or finally flash GB, wipes, OTA / KIES update...

Yeah, the first should work
Otherwise go back indeed to gb.
Note I havent figured another variable out, on one stock rom version I wsnt able to ota, but going back version earlier I was.
Not sure what it was.
In the end, just pc oding it is faster

Yep seems PC ODIN is the best way, just didn't wanna have to set everything back up again..
