Hello all.
Help me I need to understand the policy update via Samsung Kies. I have a SGS2
android 2.3.4,
Baseband Version: I9100XXKI1 (CPW)
Version number: GINGERBRED.XWKI4 (CPW)
Kies does not offer me any updates while for some countries it already offers Android 2.3.6. Why?
Is there a problem at my level? What to do?

Their is no update for your phone is why .
CPW have not updated go to a CPW service centre and ask .
UPDATE PATH samsung build firmware pass it to phone provider who decide to pass it on or not . Countries are different and do not always have the same updates .

Why can't I update firmware through Kies. Everytime I check it says "This is the latest firmware". It seems everyone else has had the option to update with kies for a while now, so why not me? Im on vodafone uk.
Current firmware:
Gingerbread 2.3.3
PDA:KG2
PHONE:KG1
CSC:KE2 (VOD)
Thanks

Garbage some have updated some phone providers have not updated and probably will skip 2.3.4 as 2.3.5 is rolling out .
for a while now, so why not me? Im on vodafone uk.
You need to ask Vodafone or take phone to Vodafone service centre see if they have an update .Vodaphone update the firmware and push it to Kies server .

Mostly but not always it all depends upon the phone supplier .
Thats why most XDA members go down the unofficial route and many are running KI3/8 2.3.5 .

Thanks JJEgan for your help.
As I got a vodafone branded sgs2 (locked with vodafone) would flashing XWKI8 or XXKI3 from Intratech's rom page be ok?
I read somewhere you should only flash unlocked phones.
I currently have my phone rooted with unsecure BUKG2 stock kernel, other than that its untouched from purchase.
Hi all,
I have bought a second hand Samsung Galaxy S 2 in China.
The Android version installed is 2.3.3; I tried to do an update via Kies but I got the infamous message that "firmware update is not supported" for my device. I understand from other posts in the forum that maybe the firmware installed is not matching with the original region of the device, in this case I should install the right firmware in order to get the support from Kies, am I right?
But my question is...how do I know the original firmware/region for my model?
The data of the device are the following:
Model Number: GT-I9100
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: I9100XXKE4
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKE7-CL215725 [email protected] #2 (does this mean the phone has been rooted?)
Build Number: QUENS.GINGERBREAD.XWKE7
Plus, when I connect to Kies the current firmware version detected is:
I9100XWKE7/I9100XEUKD1/I9100XXKE4/I9100XWKE7 (DBT)
Sorry for the noob question, I tried to figure out from the sticky post and used search but I am still confused...(yes, I got intimidated by the welcoming video of the forum)
Thanks

Its not posible to know without evidence guess maybe.

NO its the signature
Build Number: QUENS.GINGERBREAD.XWKE7
That reads as a custom rom by Quens ???
Plus, when I connect to Kies the current firmware version detected is:
I9100XWKE7/I9100XEUKD1/I9100XXKE4/I9100XWKE7 (DBT)
If its a i9100 and no other version pick a stock rom from the stock roms posts .
With later firmware and to match region phone is used in .

hi everybody
i don't understand why kies always never want to update my officiel french samsung s2.
My S2 is bought from samsung directly, not from any isp, so i really don't understant why kies always reply me there is no update where isp's s2 phone can provide it to their users ??
i am in France, isp is named free, this isp has officially said that he advices to updrage to last android version by kies to go be 2.3.6
It is a shame that samsung not officially provide the last official android version where isp seems to do it??
Here what i see on my s2:
android version
2.3.5
kernel:
2.6.35.7-I9100XWJK2-CL676699 [email protected]#2
kies of fota-> nothing for you..
i really want to upgrade to 2.3.6 because 2.3.5 not manage to work with eapsim, only 2.3.6 can.
any advice ?

Hi,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 which states:
Baseband version:
I9100JHKE2
Kernel version:
2/6/35/7-IJHKE3-CL225022 [email protected] #2
Build number:
Gingerbread.JHKE3
Anyway, I was looking for the ICS upgrade with these numbers and failed, but someone told me some of them were meaningless. The phone was bought from Orange Romania, but I live in Israel and need Hebrew and true Right to Left support, and for the phone to work in Israel's Orange network.
Any idea on such an *OFFICIAL* upgrade?
Thanks!
Oren
Its all good !

I'm using an UNROOTED 4.0.3 from sammobile(dot)com on my SGS2 also on ORANGE network . with it i use GO!Keyboard and no HEB problems.
I think that if you use |CM9-4.0.3 Nightly| it will work just fine too.

What if KIES does not support it?
I tried (because of an answer I got elsewhere) to install Samsung KIES and use it. There's a message there saying "your device does not support software upgrading via kies".
Does this mean I have to use the flashing with download mode?
Also, I couldn't find the sammobile ROM suggested above. Can someone explain how to obtain in?
Thanks,
Oren
Just install SPOOFFW from the market, change your phone into one of the regions which supports the new version ( such as POLAND, XXLPQ ) and then connect to kies.
It will let you upgrade to ICS from kies to the European version
Thanks, but...

I think you got a free UK phone. There's not an official update at this moment for free UK phones, just get the last version of Kies and wait until the update is released.

what is meant by free uk fone. and i m using kies version 2.3. in the option where my fone name is written in the bar of left panel of kies. all the options are black except firmware upgrade. it is greyed. what and why is this?
Kies updates official firmware ONLY .
Only when the provider of the phone updates .
Example
Provider xxxx Saudi used in yy Turkey network .
Update from the provider Saudi when they update only .
SEARCH for CHECKFUS and put your product code etc in the boxes as the codes you post show possible UK as provider of the phone .

You can flash a ics rom from odin
check the guide here to use odin and flash ics:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Download this latest ics:http://skywanker.net/download/downl...9100_SER_I9100XWLP7_I9100OXELP7_I9100XXLPS.7z
Update has not aired yet lad, best bet would would be to flash a custom ROM if you can't wait. But if you don't want to play around with custom ROM then wait.
..
same here try to use ODIN if you want to upgrade your SGS2 into ICS based..

Who supplied the phone ??? whatever provider supplied the phone updates the firmware .
If your phone is a UK phone you get UK update .
Post your Product Code under the battery .
