Hello,
I am with AT&T in the US and recently bought the Galaxy S2. My device happens to be a French version. My firmware is
PDA: KG1 / PHONE: KG1 / CSC: KG2 (XEF). It's 2.3.3.
Can I upgrade to the latest EU 2.3.4? If so, which package should I download in the intratech thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278)?
1. Any reason not to upgrade?
2. Will it wipe the phone?
3. Will Kies still recognize the firmware after the update and continues to notify me of future updates based on this newly flashed firmware?
Thank you for helping this newbie out.
Can anyone help?

Hello guys, just wondering what's the latest firmware for your beloved SG2 on KIES?

Hi,
A few days ago I've unlocked and debranded my sgs2, flashed with odin the XWKI4 (2.3.4) firmware..
Today I saw on samfirmware that there exist a I9100XWKI8 (2.3.5) available..
I want to avoid odin (as I don't want a factory reset), so I connected my phone to kies, but Kies says that my version is the last one available..
Can anyone explain me why kies says that there is no update available for me?
Thanks
Btw, my phone info:
PDA: I9100XWKI4
PHONE: I9100XXKI1
CSC: I9100XEUKH2
In the same frigin pool m8...
hmm not many options.
For your region, that is the latest available.
Roll out of upgrades is not universal, it comes in spurts and dabs, with upgrades usually months behind the current version available.
Currently latest unofficial firmware out is KJ3.
Hello all. I'm new to this forum. 1 week ago I bought Galaxy s 2 from Computer City in Denmark. It runs fine now, but can not upgrade from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5. Kia can not find 2.3.5. I have the following data:
phone:
Android 2.3.4
Current firmware: PDA: KI4 / PHONE: KI1 / CSC: KE1 (SMO)
Kia: Runs with v. 2.1.0.11112_41
Want your help on how I get on so that I can put 2.3.5.
PS: What is SMO for?

You can check it here => http://www.samfirmware.com/samsunglettercode.htm
But the CSC is not so important.
Here you can find Official Firmwares for the SGS2 (GT-I9100) => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Please read first post - Intratech has described everything you need to know on how to flash the latest firmware to your phone.
Do not use KIES, just download and use Odin (or if you want to root your phone first you can use Chainfire's Mobile ODIN app from the market).
The latest Firmware for the SGS2 is XWKK5 => Android 2.3.6.
You will find it as Frankenstein ROM in the third post.
And you can combine it with any Modem (baseband / phone part of the firmware) and CSC (regional / carrier customizations).
Good luck !
Hi Droiders,
I use Galaxy S2 (Android 4.0.3). Last night I had rooted my phone successfully.

Additional Details:
I am from India , my current OS is Australian region (XSA) unbranded
Model NO: GT - I9100
PDA: I9100XWLP8
PHONE: I9100XXLPS
CSC: I9100XSALP4
Appreciate your help ...
Thanks,

Couple of places you can get stock roms: Samfirmware.com, here (this site is better than Samfirmware IMHO) or with the PC version of Checkfus (search for it on Google/XDA).
Yes, you can install a stock rom for any region, but with one caveat. If you install a rom that isn't for your region, you may not be able to get future OTA updates from your carrier. Which isn't really a big deal because if your carrier does release a stock rom for your region, you could always download it with Checkfus & flash it with Odin (like almost everyone does on here).
