My S2 came from 'expansys online' and had the information below and no update in KIES.
PDA: XWKI4
Modem: XXKI1
CSC: OXAKI2 (SEB)
I changed the sales code to NEE by '*#272*IMEI#' and then KIES asked me to update to the following version.
PDA: XWKI8
Modem: XXKI4
CSC: OXAKI2(NEE)
Then I flashed stock firmware from Intratech's thred. But KIES said my phone cannot be updated by it. I check the information by '*#272*IMEI#' and there is just one work 'NEE' after 'sales code' and NOTHING SHOWN BELOW(before there were a list i can select). I thought I should have one 'XEN' to select at least but nothing.
The flashing should be successful because there were some apps with Dutch language.
PDA: XWKJ3
Modem: XXKI4
CSC: XENKJ1
At latst yesterday I flashed KK5 combination from Intratech's thred and succeed (with special apps like bbc i-player) but problem is still there. I cannot see any CSC to select by '*#272*IMEI#'.
KIES says the firmware 'I9100XWKK5/I9100XEUKH2/I9100XXKI3/I9100XWKK5' cannot be updated by it.
So anybody know how to solve it or who know which combination can be updated by KIES?
Anyone can give a help?
I dont really understand what you are trying to achieve .
Kies looks at Product Code and a few other codes .These are then matched against firmware on the Kies server . No match = no download .
Why vendor not updated
product Codes do not match any firmware .
Kies may not be able to match up the current codes on your phone .
You have a phone you changed its sales code
you updated then you flashed stock firmware then you flashed stock firmware again .
You want latest firmware then flash stock rom and flash relevant CSC to your location .

My question is why there is no CSC which I can select after I call '*#272*IMEI#'. There is just one word 'NEE'. No CSC list.
I flash XEU so I think at least there should be XEU CSC and the word should be changed from NEE to XEU. But the fact is not so.
And how to change product code?
You flashed the Frankenstein version of KK5 which is a combination that Intratech put together, and he placed it in the FRANKENSTEIN section, Kies will not recognize it, in order to flash with Kies, stay with stock roms/combinations.
The biggest question is why do you want to flash with Kies and with ODIN, pick one and stick with it, flash the CSC separately if you do not see it, or download CSC select from the market.

what I most warry about is why there is no XEU displayed. After calling *#272*IMEI# just 'Sales Code : NEE' is displayed (sorry no image). Anyone whose phone just has non-multi CSC can show me your infromation after calling.

Flash the CSC separately, then use the market app to select it, will reset your device though...

Hello,
Im on KE2 firmware at the monent however when I got on to kies KE2 is the latest firmware.
As far as I know latest official firmware is KE8?? isnt it?
So Id like use odin to flash KE7 or higher firmware on it.
Here is question....
1.
Currently on
PDA: I9100XWKE2
Phone: I9100XXKDJ
CSC: I9100XFKD4
Am I able to upgrade to
I9100XWKE7 CSC-XEUKD1 without any problem??
If not what kind of CSC do I have to use it?
Im currently at New Zealand with parallel imported SII.
2. If I change to KE7 or higher with odin does it make avoid warrenty?
Thanks.
I experienced the same thing. what I did was I asked the place I bought the phone from if the warranty would expire if I flashed XWKE7 UK version to my phone, they told me no since it pretty much is no bigger difference between that update and the forthcoming one(I live in Sweden).
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
If I change to KE7 or higher with odin does it make avoid warrenty?
Not Samsung warranty .

Hi guys, I'm quite a n00b at all this, new to android
I have a question about this kernels/roms as well.
I have updated samsungs firmware (KF2) as described here:

After that I rooted my phone as described here:

Now, I came across an overclock! Here:

Which seems really interesting.
My question is: will I loose my KF2 ROM/kernel if I flash this overclock kernel?
Can I even apply the mod with my KF2 kernel?
And what exactly is the difference between a ROM and kernel anyway?
Thank you! Trying to read up a lot, but it's not easy being a simpleton

Hi guys,
I just bought a Galaxy S2 and I want to flash a newer firmware.
The firmware I intend to flash (XXKG1) comes with PDA, MODEM and CSC.
Is it possible to flash just it's PDA part? Would there be any implications on that?
Why would I want that? Because the original firmware (Brazil - VIVO carrier) I could find only came with the PDA part. So if I flash CSC or MODEM, there is no way back.
The CSC is different from mine. Would that be a problem?
Thanks in advance
AFAIK the CSC is installed into the system partition, so even when you only flash the PDA part you're going to loose your current CSC setup.
However, if the FW comes as seperate .tar files you can just flash the PDA one, yes.
You can take care of a "way back" if you first install CF-Root for example and then do a backup from recovery mode.
Restoring that back gets you pretty close to "nothing ever happened" - it doesn't backup the moden though, only system and data.
Uhmm... weird, even on ODIN you have a separate button for the CSC.
What are the consequences of changing the CSC?

As the above poster mentioned It really depends how the firmware is packaged
Intratech's firmware are packed in one TAR ( Pda/phone/csc ) is just one zip, which you put in the PDA section and it flashes all three of them within
If you get three seperate files then you put them in their corressponding order of ODIN
In this instance you can choose to keep your current CSC and not flash that one.
Although I am not sure if It has any effect between 2.3.3 and 2.3.4
Just to clarify CSC subject:
I live in Kazakhstan. My present setup (from *#1234#)
PDA: I9100XEKE2
Phone: I9100XXKDJ
CSC: I9100XEKE1
believe all available official samsung firmwares are issued do exist for different region(i.e. Kazakhstan is not included)
How safe is it to flash the 2.3.4 firmware now (KG2) ?
What can I possibly loose using the KG2 firmware from Samsung ? As u understand phone language is not a problem for me.....so wonder anything else I omit ?
Thanks for help
Sorry to bump in....
Hello, I am relatively new to forums, only discovered it since I got my galaxy s2, which was a month ago.
Anyways I have similar questions, and I read a bunch of topic which only made me even more confused about what to do, and didn't want to make a new thread so I bumped in here
If inappropriate, please ignore me.
Anyways, Ive got:
PDA: I9100XWKE1
PHONE: I9100XWKE1
CSC: I9100OJVKE1
It is an stock firmware, and I guess a ROM...
I want to update to 2.3.4 but waiting seems not to be a better side of me so I decided to do it manually.
My question is with what should I update with?
As far as I understand, latest official firmwares can be found in the Intratech's post ( the XXKG2 one ).
But I am worried about the CSC part, and how will it affect my phone?
As far as I understand CSC carries localization of a sort, for some network configuration, but my provider sends config messages, and only language I use in phone is English.
Will random CSC part affect me?
Can I even update from my current firmware to the latest one? or do I need to update to other one first?
Will update wipe my data? ( it seems no as far as I understood from guide )
Will the phone be full "stock" ( basically like I bought it with that firmware), and will I be able to update on later time with KIES ?
What kinda of problems (if any) might I expect with upgrading this way? ( if presumably I do everything as I should, i.e. as per guides )
Once again, I apologize for bumping this thread, and I thank you for any help you provide.

Thought so.A csc is not carrier based its country based.For example Im in Spain and in use FOP on any network,KOR is korea standard and so on.You can flash a firmware with a multi-csc if that firmware is official in those countries.If not you get the csc for the valid country only.If you go to the link below you will see a list of all official firmwares.If you go even further below to the "FRANKENSTEIN SECTION" you will see more firmwares and a list of CSCs.You can flash a Frankenstein FW,factory reset your phone then if you want flash any of the CSCs you see there and do another factory reset to complete it.In my experience its not a good idea to flash another CSC to an official FW so thats why its best to choose a Frankenstein one which are just the same,just pimped-up by XDAs intratech.The other wat is to flash a custom ROM that has a multi CSC pack built in.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1290468
thats what i thought so i used the firmware in the link above i then did a factory reset so kies would see it as if i done it vis kies. Kies then checked for an update and none was found but then when i went to change the csc i only had xeu.
Dose anyone know when/if 2.3.5 for xeu will be out i dont want to flash again
because i just got kies to work with the firmware im useing
Kies wont work from the CSC you on your phone.It will search for the latest update depending on the product code of your phone and if you flash a non-official firmware then it will say that the firmware that you have cannot be updated.If you want the official 2.3.5 then you need a factory unlocked SGS2 as they are usually the first to get updates and dont flash it with a non-oficiall FW.Flash a custom ROM if you wantIm on KI4-KK5 2.3.6 cos I have a custom ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1290468
it is unlocked to all networks it unlocked when i flashed it with 2.3.4
Kies reads a specific registry key to get the phone details like
I9000ADJP6/I9000O2UJP3/I9000ADJP3/I9000ADJP6
If Kies tries to match firmware to the above codes it would fail .
As per
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1089874&highlight=hidswver
the Check FUS post allows direct downloads
or spoofFW may allow you to download a firmware from Kies by spoofing codes .

Its just that you said you de-branded it.I took that as a locked phone that you have unlocked with a flash but that wont change its product code.
ah im with you now how can i unlock it so the code can change?
it was on t-mobile 2.3.5 is out now for t-mobile but kies is saying im up to date not sure now how to get get 2.3.5 but so kies still works
on my mums galaxy s her sales code was cpw i changed it by *#272*IEMI#
changed to xeu it then had an update to 2.3.5
CPW CSC is the best for the UK as it covers more networks .

i did try CPW but still no update and this one http://www.multiupload.com/QROGHPRZVK made my anti virus pop up when my mums one was set to CPW it would not update till it was set to XEU also CPW is still on Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread http://devsrom4android.blogspot.com/2011/10/samsung-galaxy-s2-firmware-updates-via.html

Dont worry to much about the antivirus coming up.Thats just the way your antivirus or firewalls is set.Happens every now and then but its not a virus so just download it anyway.Happened to me a few times,mostly when the file is an md5 file and not a tar file(both go in PDA in Odin too so no worries there).As for Kies I guess its a matter of flashing a compatable firmware that Kies will recognize for the update as normally it wont recognize non official ones.Or a custom ROM if you cant wait.
CPW CSC is the best for UK networks as it covers more networks .
It has nothing to do with updates its only the CSC file that contains multiple network configurations more than the XEU csc does .
CSC is not actually required to use the phone .
SpoofFW might be worth a look from the market .

well i flashed it with CPW 2.3.3 kies updated it to 2.3.4 dont matter what network i use
I have a SII which has been imported in to New Zealand, it was 2.3.4, with a SMO CSC
Locally there has just been a 4.0.3 upgrade avaliable, I've downloaded the VNZ (Vodafone NZ) and flashed it with odin.
The upgrade to 4.0.3 went great, but the CSC has remained at SMO, so now Keis is reporting that "your device does not support software upgrading via keis"
PDA: I9100XWLP7
phone:I9100XXLPS
CSC: I9100VNZLP2
I've tried the CSC changes, and this only give me the option of the SMO CSC.
Any idea on how to fix this, I would if possible like to have VNZ as the CSC

flash ur stock rom,its obivious tht the csc will change wat u expect man...an always hav a efs backd up....
wipe using code, after that if still doesnt change flash againusing odin and wipe again using code.
will work, iv seen ics requires twice flashing for csc fix, GB worked usually with one flash and wipe code
*2767*3855#
Essentially its make your mind up time Stick with Kies and official firmware or use Odin .
This attempt to mix and match does not always work .

How can I find out what was my original firmware when I bought the phone. I flashed MG4, the latest one for S3 but KIES claims that my current firmware version is not supported to update via KIES. I saw somewhere that you can restore it with the help of S/N but can't understand how.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
GT-I9300 and your country. If you had unbranded version then it's unbranded, if not select proper branded one.
There's no other way to determine what you have, especially if you overwrited bootloader with other pure-stock flashed via Odin.

you can find it via kies.. for that :
1. switch off your phone, pullup the battery and note the serial no.(no mistake should be made)
1. Open kies and than go to Tools>>Firmware Upgrade and Initialization in kies.( you don't even have to connect your phone to do this)
2. Enter the model no as: GT-I9300 (no mistake should be made, everything should be in capital letters, you can copy this one)
3. It will ask you for S/N (serial no.), enter the one you noted in first step.
Thats it, it will tell you the CSC code(country code) and other informations(i have attached screenshot of mine), the one inside bracket like in my screenshot TTT is the country code. Than you can check in Sammobile for the the firmware and find out the original firmware which was when you bought the phone.

My country isn't listed there somehow. As I remember when I connected my device via kies the day I bought it the csc was BTU or something that starts with B. Tho PDA was different.
Can't find my country there. Also my phone is Unbranded
Why don't you try flashing the MG4 one from kies, maybe it detects then... and can you tell your CSC code??

Check my product code is GT-I9300TADCOA , It's Tele2 from Croatia and I bought the phone from Tele2. So it think that's it.
