The latest official firmware for your device is shown as KE2 . You have the latest official firmware ..
You can take the alternative route and install stock Samsung firmware flashing with Odin .

[Q] Unbrand 3 (Three) Italy Galaxy 2

Hey guys.
I just received a TRE (Three) Italy branded GSG 2 with the following PDA, PHONE and CSC info here:
PDA : I9100 XWKI8
PHONE : I9100 NEKI2
CSC : I9100 HUIKI1
If I install the XWKI8 Stock Kernel from here, using ODIN, will that work ? I want the same version of software, but with NO BRANDING.
Afterwards I want to upgrade my phone to ICS, but I just want to get rid of the 3 (Three) icons and bootscreen first.. Afterwards If I want to go back to the 3 (Three) version if I install the one with the info above will it work ?
Thanks a lot guys.
Stock answer is read the debranding post .

No as you dont have a clue and need to read the Faqs and Guides first .
Kernels are not firmware you require full firmware . Read the thread instructions .

Q
Okay. Got it. read them. Ty JJe.
So from what I've read I understand that I can install whatever firmware that is available here, under the OFFICIAL FIRMWARE section, the original and current firmware that I've got being available here, under the 3 Network, under Italy.
Can I install _ANY_ firmware ? Or any other one that has the same PDA version (XWKI8) ?
Afterwards.. If I want to go back to the original FW the phone had, is flashing the firmware version above, under the 3 network, Italy everything I have to do ? If for example I've got a problem with the phone or software and want to use its warranty. Ty.
Thanks all.

As JJEgan told you, you can flash any firmware. Just a suggestion: After you change the firmware, reflash the NEKI2 modem. It's one of the best for 3 in italy

>>> no idea what that means ??
correct firmware for your phone updates .
Use CHECKFUS to download any stock rom and flash via ODIN .
Alternative a Samsung/Kies forum or service centre .

How to go back an Android version without root on S3?

I have the international S3 GT i9300 and have been waiting for the Jelly Bean 4.1.2 update. Being the impatient person I am I got bored and download the 4.1.2 Touchwiz ROM for my phone and flashed it with Odin without root. However, now as the update is near, I'd rather have the official version. So I'd like to revert back to 4.1 so I can get the update. Kies is saying it isn't compatible with the firmware but is this because it isn't out yet? If its going to always say this, and it will affect later updates, how do I go back to 4.1 without root? Or will I need to root? On the other hand, if this wont affect anything and will be the same as the official, then shall I just keep with what i have?
Thanks alot
Restore your exact saved original firmware .
Or restore it from CHECKFUS .
t isn't compatible with the firmware but is this because it isn't out yet
No you no longer have Samsung firmware that matches the codes .
Root has nothing to do with updates .
Simplest would be to read the Guides .
