Odin + sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com.
But do not flash P firmware if you have non P phone and do not flash non P if you have P!

the problem is that i don't want to lose warranty nor data. data is less a problem since i can back it up via kies, but warranty on the other hand..

You can go to your provider (or where you buy phone) service and ask them to update it. It is not something that breaks warranty.

You dont lose warranty if you flash original firmware with Odin.

[Q] Kies says upgrade not supported

hi samsung Kies says your device not supported via upgrading with kies
am on kingdroid rom
any idea why i changed csc to xeu
I'm assuming you'd have to go back to stock ROM to upgrade via Kies.

You need to be on stock rom for kies to work, just download the stock rom you want to download through kies and use odin
kids says device software not supported for update
Hi all,
I don't think this is hijacking...seems similar problem.
I flashed to ICS before it was released, now want to update to official version via kies...so I flashed to this with odin (downloaded from samfirmware.com)
PDA: i9100BOKK1
PHONE: i9100BOKJ1
CSC: i9100TMUKK1
But when I connect to kies it still says the 'device software does not support updating via kies'. I've tried flashing lots of other gingerbread firmwares from samfirmwares.com (need gingerbread so kies detects it needs updating). Really stuck now. How do i find which original stock firmware to flash to get dues to update? Tried the list on xda but still cqn't get it to allow an update. Is there something else that can cause kies to give that error, or is it definitely that I've got the wrong stock firmware? If so, is there a sure fire way to get the right one? I've tried the xda branded firmware list, that's where I got the link for this firmware above. Please help!
Wrong IMEI --> no Update
Check your IMEI (*#06#). Do you have your original number or is it changed to 004999010440000?
When I didn't succeed with OTA/Kies-Updates I found that the "developer IMEI" was the reason.

[Q] Kies upgrade and initialization

Hello guys have a question for you.
I installed Kies on my PC a few days ago. I connect my Note and everything seems fine, I can browse the device, see my memory usage, see the firmware version that is installed, etc, but every time I click on the firmware upgrade and initialization option I get a message box saying: "GT-N7000" does not support initialization.
what does that mean? That I can't use kies to update my device?
I know my device is rooted but I guess I still should be able to use kies to update my device, right? am I mistaken?
I have the same problem.
I also see the same message when I hook my one up

im on the stock unrooted german ICS, when i connect to Kies it says that "your device does not support software upgrading via kies!!!" anyone know whats up with that!?
Erase Kies that you have right now, go to Samsung.de (german site of Samsung) and install their latest version of Kies. Open Kies, run device updates in Kies and reboot your phone and THEN connect phone to the computer via USB cable. I had the same message and this solved my issues.

Had the same problem was on indian (inu) version of gb and upgraded german ics.... had this message also.
I changed my csc code to dbt and it seems to have fixed that.
this is what i did
in dialler type
*#06#
this gives imei number note it down
then
*#272*your imei from above#
select dbt and hit start.... does a factory reset though so be warned
also i am a noob so cant garantee that this is safe, this worked for me now when i connect to kies i get the this is the current firmware message, however i dont know if its safe, my phone has never been rooted also.
just need to fix the charging paused voltage to high message without having to connect a usb stick conector and removing it now.

Anyone can confirm if changing this parameter is safe?
I had many more options than that but i chose the option that matched the area the rom was from.... was on a inu rom to start changed to german release (csc is dbt) so i changed it to match.... now ive flashed the lpf rom instead and have the same prob again.....
Hi
Can anyone speak easy to understand solution for a noob like me.
I have stock ICS, Indian.
how do you know if you have Indian or german update .. Last time the samsung service center installed German update on my note
please, did you even try to search?

if any of you superbrick your phone on stock kernel and unrooted by changing csc which triggers wipe/factory reset dont do anything fancy and contact entropy. you will know youre superbricked if update via pc Odin sticks at factoryfs for forever. (or longer then 30 min)

[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 ?

The new version of Kies 2.3.2.12054/19 solved my problem now I can upgrade to ICS, but is it good idea? Is ICS better than GB?

[Q] Galaxy Note Update problem (India)

Hi guys.
I am unable to update my Galaxy Note by any means. Kies says that my device does not support software upgrading via Kies. When I tried OTA, I get a message saying Failed to update firmware.
This is not the ICS upgrade. This is a 72.29 MB upgrade rolled out months back. I have tried everything with Kies. It refuses to budge.
I have browsed several threads but none provided me with a working solution. I read that sometimes the firmware is flashed when you give the phone for repairing. I DID give my phone at the service centre once and was handed back a completely fresh install of the software.
I am very noob-y in matters related to kernels and CSC and odin. A detailed answer would be really helpful. Your patience and effort is appreciated.
Please help guys. Thanks!
You can update to the latest version of ICS for India using the PC Odin. Thats the fastest way of upgrading. Follow the instruction that Dr Ketan has for upgrading to the Indian Rom of ICS.
hope this helps.
download the stock ics from samfirmwares.com
download pc odin
enable usb debugging
unknown sources
open pc odin
just open pda and browse to the tar file and do not change any other options and flash

download indian ics and use pc odin to update..
see this Dr. Ketan's link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667018
will wait for OTA update.. waited for such a longtime already!!
Karthikdoc - U dont have to wait for OTA update. It is already there.. Just keep refreshing .. I did a OTA update of Note to ICS almost a week ago .. and some even more earlier.
Profest - It would be good if you can go into
Settings --> About Phone
and provide us the Android version
Baseband version
Kernal version
Just want to make sure the samsung guys gave you a right flash and also to guide you in the right direction ..
Maybe factory reset will help.....
Afterall you will have to do it before upgrading to ICS.
