Hey Doc,
I am still om LR6 and software update shows "no update" I had the same issue last time as well and then I had to use Kies. I usually keep all files related to software update deleted from system as they keep running in background and copy them again to system to check for any update, could this be the reason for no OTA?
And what method do you suggest to update- Kies or odin? I am rooted with stock Kernel and almost all "possible" stock apps removed. I know I will loose root and all apps will be back in both methods

First there is no OTA update still in india after LR6.
And if you have disable software update related app then you won't get it.
I prefer Odin Odin and Odin only.

Ohh, I though there might be one after reading OP , by the way I enabled OTA by copying all files back to system. but if there is no OTA then how can it show something, lol. Thanks will stay on LR6 then.

Since you are on a German ROM, so logically you should get all German updates whether through kies or OTA, but Indian updates are a no go.
You can later flash Indian version of LRQ using odin once available, I am sure Dr.Ketan will upload it same day

[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] ICS via PC Odin, Now want the official update via kies

Hello Everyone,
I have a few questions I hope I will get satisfied here.
I have recently updated my GT-N7000 to ICS via this website.
android.gs/ update-samsung-galaxy-note-n7000-to-official-ice-cream-sandwich-lpy-with-mobile-odin/
I followed the PC odin method and in a few minutes I got ICS. It also said that via this method your phone would not be rooted and you will be able to get the official updates through kies in future.
Yesterday I saw on the internet that ICS for Poland is out and now I want the official ICS version via the KIES.
Now whenever I try connecting through kies I get the message that "Your Software doesn't support software upgrading via Kies"
What is the problem? How to solve it?
Download the poland version from sammobile.com or dr ketans thread and flash using pc odin
It would be better to download Polish 2.3.6, after THAT factory reset, and then upgrade into 4 through Kies.
when would i get official isc in serbija ? does somebody know?
Moved To Q&A​
Please post questions in the Q&A section​
The problem is the incopatible csc file... Try the solution provided as first reaction on your post. Either you dowload the old firmware, then you flash it over your current firmware and after this, the kies update should work again.
Or you simply download abd flash the pl. Update directly and kies will work for the future releases in poland.

Great job irritating forum members by hijacking another thread as your very first post... I am sure you will get tons of answers. Maybe read a bit before asking questions - there IS a dedicated ICS info thread...

Well Now I am having problem finding the firmware for my phone when I do this
Dial *#06# that will show hour emei. Write it down, then dial *#272*yourimeinumberhere# that will show your csc, you can change it here, it will wipe your data thought. I get XEO as my sales code.
*#1234# gives me
PDA: N7000XXLPY
PHONE: N7000XXLPT
CSC: N7000OXALPY
Build Info: Friday May 4
Also KIES says
Current firmware version: PDA:LPY / PHONE:LPT / CSC:LPY(XEO)
What to do now ?
Did you flash a polish gingerbread or which version did you flash?
Cause now it seems you have ICS open germany version.

My Sales Code is XEO previously I have 2.3.6 and then I flashed two days ago this
ICS via PC odin.
Now what to do ?
Well I dont know if there is a polish version of ICS out yet. But you can check that on
www.sammobile.com
But it shouldnt be any different than the rom you currently have. Except for maybe languagesupport.
So if I were in your situation I wouldnt do anything.
There is a simple solution for that. I did it for exactly the same reason as you. Just download official gingerbread ROM for your country /Poland/ and flash it via Odin. If Kies is still unable to use updates, you will have to find right CSC for your phone. There is allways more than one for each country.. because of different carriers etc. Someone described how to do it in previous comments.
If you get lucky, Kies will be finally satisfied with your phone and will offer you official update /if it is really available/
I have reverted back to the Slovak Gingerbread ROM because I had some issues with German ICS. Now I just have to wait for official update for my country..
I just read in development section that official ICS LPY is out for poland also. You can allways flash that through Odin.

[Q] my phone still says no available updates for ICS

Dear All,
I have 2.3.6 LA1 stock rom with root, my region start to have ICS updates while my phone still says no available updates from phone and from Kies?!!!
Could it be because of the root?

Where did you buy your phone? It is most likely to do with the CSC code of your phone - if it has a country code that has not yet received an update it will not get one.
Search the forums for CSC codes and you will get a better understanding.
I have always updated using the custom ROMs in the development forum as they are usually as good and more battery efficient. HTH.
Dear TempusFudgeIt
Thank u 4 your reply
Iam downloading the ICS rom now and will install it via mobile oden to keep the root

You won't get any official update if you are rooted. To unroot check Dr Ketan's thread.

Thanks for the replies. Been so long since I last tinkered my Note. Have to do a lot of backreading...I just updated my Kies PC software and its still having connecting problems with my phone lol
just wait for the custom rom it will be better than official rom
Good ROMs
No more wait.
My two cents, goods ROMs you can try are Team Union, Alliance, Sweet, Eybee reloaded rocket.
after trying this and that, finally I found the best rom for my note1,
the most stable, smooth one is 2.3.6 lol.
simply go to sammobile.com and search gt-n7000 in firmware section than download your region's release and flash it through PC odin. I am sure this will resolve all your issues and you will be back on stock rom. make sure u have backed up you data and apps.
HIT THANKS IF I HELPED YOU.

[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.
