[Q] Do I have the latest U.K Firmware? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Galaxy S II bought in CPW in London
when I press *#1234#:
PDA: I9100XWKF3
PHONE: I9100XXKE7
CSC: I9100CPWKD1
Build Info: Thu Jun 9 18:16:44 KST 2011
Also I want to revert the CSC to XEU as that is the default U.K Samsung Android CSC but
When I do the *#272*IMEI#
I only get CPW CSC Code as an option. I want to use Kies to firmware update the latest U.K XEU Firmwares but I can't change CSC since I only have CPW.
XDA ...have any Ideas?
Greatly appreciated

No one?? @[email protected]

i think you have a Carphone warehouse branded handset...thats why your CSC is not XEU which as you mentioned is for unbranded UK handsets.
Maybe please change your query/subject to how to de-brand the handset...and someone knowledgeable here might help

And when we say which firmware we have do you mean by PDA: or PHONE: or CSC:?

Generic stock Samsung is KG6 not official kies release .
And when we say which firmware we have do you mean by PDA:

Ok guys.
Let me get this straight to all those confused.
CPW sell Unbranded phones even with contract. Their phones can be used with anyother network.
But still I believe CPW do still have their own firmware on it.
Yes it is debranded Galaxy S II. But still, it isn't XEU (STOCK UK FIRMWARE) it is CPW (Carphone Warehouse FIRMWARE)
That is why I was asking what the latest XEU Firmware out "Officially" on kies is.
Because the latest CPW Firmware is = KF3

I went from T-Mobile UK to stock using * THIS *.
Changes:
I downloaded Odin 1.85 instead of 1.83.
I downloaded the KE7 ROM (XWKE7 - Generic XEU) * HERE *
Completed the steps through to number 8.
Finally I rooted the phone * HERE * following the instructions and using the KE7 kernel.

I got mine on Orange and flashed the latest firmware using Odin a few days ago, mine says:

These samsung ones are so confusing compared to HTC!

Those who are reporting that they have a generic stock U.K firmware on a debranded GSII with :

Is this the latest from Samsung kies?

[Q] CSC issue after ROM upgrade

Hi,
I'm new to Android and Galaxy S2. My phone was purchased in Spain from Vodafone.
I have just upgraded my ROM as per Intratech's guide (thanks by the way for the nice gude). The upgrade went good but after upgrae Kies shows the old CSC and says it can't update. Is this expected? I thought the CSC was supposed to change to the generic one.
I used ROM XWKE7 from the guide. After upgrade I get the following:
Doing *#1234#, I get:
PDA: I9100XWKE7
PHONE: I9100XXKE4
CSC: I9100XEUKD1
Doing *#272*<your IMEI>#, I get
ATL
In Kies it shows:
PDA: KE7 / PHONE: KE4 / CSC:KD1(ATL)
- Can someone please clarify?
- I'd also like to know if after this I still have to do something else to unlock the phone to use with a different provider.
- I was hoping to leave the phone as unbranded so future updates will be picked up through Kies.
Thanks in advance for your help.

[Q] GT-I9100 does not support firmware upgrade.

Hello!
I just bought the S2 White, and it's on 2.3.3.
I tried to update the software from phone, but it says, "No new updates".
I connected the phone to KIES (Windows 7 Home Premium x64),
& it says, "GT-I9100 does not support firmware upgrade."
PDA: KE7
PHONE: KE4
CSC: KD1(H3G)
Can someone help me please to update it ???
(I don't understand why KIES says that my phone does not support firmware upgrade :S)
Maybe it has been flashed an unsupported version firmware.
Anyway you can upgrade to any firmware you want throught odin.
Look in the forum for a guide how to flash with odin

It says it cannot be updated because your firmware is mixed for some reason, latest H3G is:-
PDA: I9100XWKI4

faill debrand!!flash again!

I had a similar problem. Then updated Kies and it said that it's not possible to update my firmware!
I went to the thread with the stock firmwares. Chose the current UK 2.3.4 firmware and flashed via Odin. Totally painless and very straightforward. Then checked on my phone for software updates, non available and checked via Kies and says my firmware is up to date.
This seems to have corrected the problem.
People still use Kies?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Just looked through the guides for doing this and I can only seem to see stuff for Vodafone, 3, O2 etc. I've got an unlocked S2 that I think is running out of date software and thought I would try updating manually as Kies is telling me my phone does not support updates lol. Mine is running:
PDA: I9100XWKF3
PHONE: I9100XXKE7
CSC: I9100XEUKD1
So is my software out of date and if so how can I update it please?

OK so I have found the custom ROM for my S2 but what is the point of putting the same one back on there that is already running? The question I had was 'what is the latest version and how do I install that?'
The reason for all this by the way is that I am sick of the poor battery life of the phone and have been told that the latest version of the software improves it but unfortunately Kies seems to think that my phone is not able to be upgraded!
Are you on OS X by any chance?

Your versions are valid XWKF3 XEU, and it should update to:-
PDA: I9100XWKI4
PHONE: I9100XXKI1
CSC: I9100XEUKH2
If Kies says it cannot be updated your product code is probably wrong.
Hello,
Kies give me the same message "GT-I9100 does not support firmware upgrade."
and shows these versions on my S2,
PDA: KF3
PHONE: KE4
CSC: KF3(INU)
It shows the same as the latest firmware versions just below.
Does anyone know when these above versions were released ?
lol I know its possible to update, but whats wrong with kies
