Hey Guys,
I've tried all morning to find out what i should pick to flash my new phone, i've searched the forum but atm everything is kinda making me go crazy. I've understand that Different regions got different firmware, i've checked the post about all the official firmware. But now I must admit, i've given up and admit to seek help in here.
My phone:
PDA: I9100XWKF3
Phone: I9100XXKE7
CSC: I9100XXKF1
Location: Denmark
Language: Danish
Android: 2.3.3
NEW FIRMWARE:
I wish to run 2.3.4 ofc, so im looking for a firmware that enables this.
I've found by reading allot of posts in here, that this site have allot:
http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i9100.htm
The problem is, that they have allot of different and seems to make no sense, wich one i should pick.
Here is a little list:
I9100XXKG1 ## EXT4.PIT 2.3.4 2011 July 5 MULTI - CSC - OXAKG1
I9100XXKH3 ## EXT4.PIT 2.3.4 2011 August 12 MULTI - CSC - OXAKH13
I9100XXKH1 ## EXT4.PIT 2.3.4 2011 August 1 MULTI - CSC - OXAKH1
Problem:
My phone is atm at: I9100XWKF3 and on the list there is no such thing. Only KH1-KH3-KG..
What is the risk by flashing one of them?, i mean KF and KH is not the same i guess...
Could someone please help me to find the right one for me?
Many THanks.
Well you are on KF3 firmware like me. It's an old build. Still 2.3.4 hasn't released officially yet, so only option is a leaked ROM if you wanna get 2.3.4. Just download an European firmware from this thread,

There is NO risk involved, but keep in mind that it's not the Official firmware, so Kies will stop giving you any information on future firmware updates.

OXAKH3 is KH3 firmware of Europe region.
Official update should be coming soon, depends on damn Samnsung, when they will release it to Kies servers. If you want Kies updates, then as I said, you need to be on a Stock firmware, Kies won't show any updates if your device is on a Custom/Leaked firmware.

I had my GS2 XWKF3 prior to latest update via KIES. Now it is 2.3.4 but after the KI4 now I see DBT. Can I say that it is no more multi csc but Germany? And why Germany?
Hello fellow XDA-members,
I currently have an S2 with the following system information:
Android: 2.3.3
Baseband: I9100XXKE4
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKE7-CL215725
GINGERBREAD.XWKE7
Updating through Kies won't work, as it said it did not recognise blabla (possibly due root and changed kernel).
I would like to update to the next official rom, with 2.3.5 (or 6, I'm not sure what the latest version was). I'm kind a lost in the maze of all the ROMS and stuff, so could anyone point me to the right next official ROM that I could flash & be up to date to the latest stable android?
Regards,
Paul

Choose the one you want for your country /location 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 .

So for example, I could take the following one, then pick the XEN (Ntherlands) download (I live in Holland, T-Mobile). Do you also need to pick the kernel, or only flash this XEN one?

Stock rom do not need another kernel .
XEN for your location .

I meant, I currently have the "Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKE7-CL215725", some time ago I flashed it to that kernel and applied root. I just only need to download the XEN version ROM, and just flash it, I do not need to download that specific kernel too and flash that before. (So in summary, just flash the rom, not needed to change the kernel I already had).
Thanks
Kernel is part of the firmware package not a separate item .
Kernels posted are not part of the update you flash firmware xxx and you have CSC OS APPS MODEM and KERNEL updated .
You will need to reroot use same kernel number as the one you flash .

I have an unbranded and unlocked S3. My original ROM Firmware was
PDA:LE8 PHONE:LE8 CSC:LE4
My baseband isI9300XXLF2 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610
I loaded a new ROM
I9300XXALF2
Base Firmware: I9300XXALF2 (4.0.4)
Region Europe
Country: United Kingdom
Carrier: Unbranded
Build Date: 5 June 2012
Modem: XXLF2
CSC: OXALF2
Change List: 671647
My firmware has changed but shouldn't the Baseband change as well? I also was surprised that all of my apps and everything were still there. I thought this would be wiped out on a new ROM. Do I need to worry about the Baseband and what is it? I am also curious because I did all this to get the latest OTA. I still am unable to get it. When I sign up for the software updates should I say UK as my country even tho I am in the USA. Will it matter?
LF2 IS the latest OTA.
can you post a link with your stock rom?
Baseband is Modem and like the CSC it is not always upgraded with each firmware revision .
It is also flash able on its own from the stock roms thread as per instructions .
Likewise CSC and also likewise Kernels .
