I tried to update using Kies and it just hangs after downloading the firmware update.
Then I'm having trouble downloading the ROM from Rapid Gator. which seems to be where everyone has it uploaded to. So, does anyone have a download from somewhere else? I'm looking for the XAR or US version. pl0x & thanx

Not sure what exactly you are looking for, but heres my gear folder, browse around. Also, grab odin while you are there, allows you to flash non official and tar.md5 extensions. Kies is good for official releases or country based, otherwise odin. Just run as admin. Flash ne9 then nf1 as nf1 isnt the full build, have to go ne9 to nf1. If you are going to flash skins mod its the same order, ne9, nf1, skins.

why don't try flashing via Odin?
I did flash it with ODIN. but is it gonna be the same as the original stock ROM? and will Kies allow me to update in the future when a new firmware is available?
Thanks

al long as you flash the official firmware from SamFirmware, yes, you should ! but....for me Kies was never working for this option....maybe because of my location, or maybe because my TAB was supposed to be Mideast version (i bought from Dubai) and I converted to EU version.....
same thing happened with me. i live in the US and i bought my TAB on EBay with the Latin version (P1000N) I guess we're stuck with ODIN now.
BTW how did you convert to EU version? I want mine done too. Thanks

I just download the EU version from here, and I followed the tutorial from bottom of page. in your case I don't know which rom is suitable ....better check first, before you flash....
Hello,
I'm from the netherlands, and i am using the original 4.0.3 firmware (XEN). But since a few days there's on SamMobile a OTA file wit 4.0.4 firmware, and Samsung don't giving a update on KIES, and SamMobile don't having a ODIN file.
Is there someone who can tell me how to install a OTA file?
I have just the originale stock firmware 4.0.3 XEN and my phone is NOT rooted....
Just sorry if my english is not so good.
Gr, Marco
Dont think so, found anything on Google about that?

Hey listen Marco,
there are no procedure to install an Over the Air *OTA update as the word itself... the update is being push by your carrier to your phone...wirelessly. No user intervention itself. As long as your data connection /3G/4G is ON, then this push notification is being sent to your phone for the firmware upgrade. You need to skip on that OTA update as there's nothing much you can do about that.
Now what you can do is first, SEARCH, READ & LEARN most of the posts here in XDA. There are tons and tons of stuffs here in XDA alone that would guide you on how to upgrade your phone to the latest ICS firmware.
And by the way.. Kies is a proprietary sync software by Samsung. Kies (Air) you said is the one on your phone which doesn't mean at all really. What you need to do is download the PC version of Kies, install it on your computer. Sync your phone after and your phone would be upgraded... that's all you need to do.
You mentioned about ODIN... PC Odin is not in any way a software made by Samsung. Again, if you do a Search here in XDA, there are some threads who will give you a link on where you can download the latest PC Odin for you vis-a-vis, to upgrade also your firmware to the latest ICS ROM.
Sammobile is a website where you can download the latest firmware for you to use later on with PC Odin (once it's already installed on your computer.)
So, Marc... Take one stride at a time bud... what you need to learn (before going to stuffs about upgrading and rooting) is to READ and READ and LEARN your way around... the 'Search' button at the top right on this site is an indispensable tool as well for you to look for words that you like to look for.
Hope you find and muster it all bud and Good luck!
Flashing the XAC NF1 firmware and it hangs on zimage and then i have to odin back to the original...
My GG is XAR (US)
Think it is just a bad download? OR am I not waiting long enough (5 minutes on zimage)?
EDIT:
Redownloaded and get the same thing in odin - hangs on zimage Do I have to go from NA6 to NE9 then to NF1?
I'm downloading NE9 XAC now... Why don't we have better mirrors... (FASTER)?
EDIT 2:
NE9 Worked fine. Maybe I'll try NF1 now, although I haven't read anything as far as a changelog between the two.
Same happened with me. I stayed on ne9 and rooted so I could remove camera sounds

Ne9 is a bigger size file and I believe does the conversion from Android to tizen. After installing ne9 you should be able to update to nf1.
SOLVED
Old post but I just went through the same ordeal to be able to install the TizenMod 3 ROM which requires NF1 firmware first.
1. Flash any region NE9, I used V700XXUCNE9 with Odin 3.10
2. Flash any region NF1, I used V700XXUCNF1 with Odin 3.10
Can someone please direct me to a mirror link so i can pull down the firmware and unbick my watch?

I do not have any mirrors or download sites other than directly from www.sammobile.com - I get them all from there
hopefully someone else will respond with mirrors for you
Good luck,
Hey guys, I know you've probably all seen these kinds of posts, but I'm going to be honest: I've spent about 5 hours looking for good instructions on how to flash a rom like TizenMod 3.0 onto my galaxy Gear, but I can't find anything good...I know the instructions on the page say how to do it, but then it says, "IMPORTANT: Update your gear to the NF1 FW before flash!"....How do I upgrade to NF1? Any help would be appreciated, thank you!!

If you're gear is on android you need to do all of this.
Download both firmware files, and odin files to PC.
NE9 Tizen firmware
http://www.mediafire.com/?c6qzuvuksuxcega
NF1 Tizen firmware
http://www.mediafire.com/?j66d0tzk5b1bwxt
Download*Odin v3.09
https://mega.co.nz/#!UdRRyCAT!H4FyVxYynNWvXqRNmnpMGQRCP-dG3uykgP2pT4rh8Ek
Extract Odin zip-file
Open Odin v3.09
Put watch into download mode. (Hold power button until you see it say rebooting, then tap 5 times.)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign
Add the NE9 firmware file to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes
Repeat odin process again with the NF1 firmware.
You're now on the official NF1 tizen release and can proceed with the tizen mod.
Excellent post. I was in same position as OP and was searching aimlessly through vague tutorials and god awful downloads. Thanks for this and the ad free mediafire links as well. Running Tizenmod right now!
one of the best way.
i have a lots of confusion on gear 1 but u guys give me a better one solution thank u so mach...

Flashed at&t firmware with odin but can't update software past July 1st sec uodate.
Hey guys. I picked a note 9 Verizon unlocked version and was having issues using it on at&t, volte obv not working hd voice calls not working and various other signal issues. I decided to flash to the at&t firmware with odin to fix it. First thing I did was flash the unlocked firmware, factory reset, then flashed at&t firmware. Everything is working just like I bought the at&t note 9 but I'm stuck on July security patch and the update is not recognized. Is there anyway to fix this ? Thanks in advance!
What happens when you try to update; it downloads the update but failing to install due to an error (what's the error) or not finding the updates at all? If latter try with Samsung smart switch install both on the phone and computer
It doesn't find any update ota or on smartswitch. Not sure maybe just need to wait longer, unless someone else has some bright ideas lol

What build number are you running? If you managed to get yourself stranded on a build not officially pushed by ATT, then you're stuck until you Odin to something else. Current ATT is ARI5.
I am on ARG6 build. Is there something you know of I can flash that would be better?

I'm not sure there is a path using update zips to get you current. I just looked and I can't see a way to get current from there. Somewhere on here an ARI5 Odin image (with no HOME_CSC) has been posted. That would get you to current ATT software. Once there, you would get OTA updates. I'm not sure how you got off the update track.
Edit: Here's the link to the Odin image you'd want: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bKlJ-2ikGRsOd3JkDIFvjHGJX6XnrtEH/view?usp=sharing - courtesy of @Venom0642
@CrazyApe18 thank you for that link. Do I need to find a HOME_CSC file to add into that to flash it correctly?

No, you don't need one. However, without HOME_CSC (and there isn't one that I'm aware of), your device will factory reset when you Odin this build. So make a full Smart Switch backup before doing it.
Oh that's fine I full wipe after odin anyways usually. Thanks so much !!
If you don't have an ATnT sim installed, it wont give you updates.

hey @CrazyApe18, i have a note 9 att locked on build number N960USQS2CSGB. I'm having an issue finding a current pie version to flash with odin. Basically I removed a bunch of things with adb a while back and wanted to restore back to factory. I pushed adb uninstall to things like the att update software, if I'm not mistaken a factory reset wouldn't restore this. I'm wanting to flash and then update to the new android version. I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction. I downloaded your link just in case it could help me. I'm familiar with odin, just having a hard time finding the firmware and SAMMOBILE is very slow for non paying users. I appreciate any help you can give me.
just realized that the version in your link is pre Pie. any idea where i can get a fairly recent pie firmware?
