[Q] how to downgrade FW thru kies

Anyone know how to downgrade fw to the available update on kies?
I want to change the regedit to tell kies that i have a fw version that is available for a Danish/scandinavian Update.

[Q] Can I update by using kies aft i root my GN? My kernel is 2.3.5 kj6.

I have downgrade my kernel from 2.3.6 LA2 to 2.3.5 KJ6 in order to root the GN. Will the superuser or cwm disabled if I update thru Kies?
Thx for helping.

Yes. you can update via Kies , but you will loose root. the better way to flash new update , use Mobile Odin.

That means I can't update to 2.3.6 LA2 as it don't have root access yet?

[Q] ICS for Note

Hi,
I have rooted my Galaxy Note and wonder how I can upgrade to ICS when it is out by Samsung? Can I just upgrade over the air, will it work? Or I have to wait till the official roms are posten in forums?
Thanks

If you're using a stock rom and only rooted it chances are you can just OTA or use Kies to update. If that doesn't work you can flash the official firmware for your region and update OTA or through Kies or just use Odin to flash the official firmware when it's available here on XDA, which I imagine will be very quick after it's officially released.

should be around june time and might be an ota update but you would lose root access

.
Then I shouldn't update OTA? Because I want to keep the root. If I update and lose the root then I have to downgrade the rom, root and then flash the new update?
The easiest way is to wait for the update and use odin mobile pro to update it, when the rom is available here?
Thanks for replay

For now that would be your safest bet yeah. Chances are there will be a pre-rooted ICS firmware available pretty soon, if not you should be able to everroot flash the official firmware in Mobile Odin when it's available.

dont worry about the kies or ota update. get a kernel with cwm and when ics update for note released there will be stpck and lots of custum ics roms that can be flashable with cwm

[Q] How to downgrade to a previous Firmware (Galaxy Note)?

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note N7000. I upgraded it from the stock 2.3.6 Gingerbread ROM to the latest German 4.0.3 ICS using Odin.
Now my issue is as follows...
1. When I connect my phone via kies, it says "Your Device does not support upgrading via Kies". Does this mean that when Samsung decides to upgrade the Note with an Indian Firmware, I would not be able to move to that version?
2. If the answer to the question above is that I cant get the Indian Version, I would like to Revert my Phone back to the Older version (2.3.6 Gingerbread).
3. If I revert to the older version, will my Phone OTA itself to the Indian Version when its on offer?
Thanks for the expected support in advance.

1. Correct. You definitely would not be able to push an Indian update to your phone through Kies while you are on the current firmware. You would need to use other options such as Odin.
2. ...
3. Yes. After you move back to a GB ROM, you will get OTA notification if and when an OTA update is available (or you can always manually check in Settings>About Phone>Software Update if any update is available OTA). You can then proceed to the update. This would be region specific based on which region's stock firmware you revert to. If you want to receive an Indian ROM OTA, you would need to go back to an Indian Stock ROM.

[Q] Update 4.1.2 by kies after root??

Hello, I wanted to ask a question ... after doing root, I can upgrade to 4.1.2 by kies??
Thanks

Couldn't say for sure, but I was certainly able to reinstall the original firmware via kies after I couldn't unroot completely.
