Hi i bought a new samsung galaxy s2 the other day and immediately checked for updates ota. it said an update was available, so i downloaded it and clicked install. the phone rebooted and began updating but once it got to 14 percent it stopped, rebooted then said update was unsuccessful. So i connected to kies and it told me my phone wasnt compatible for updates via kies. any ideas?
Kies is useless, if you really want to update you can use odin yourself... up to you and voids warranty
Try uninstalling and reinstalling but too be honest, forget kies...
hmm. ok. any ideas on why the ota update stops at 14 percent? im on stock 2.3.4 and not rooted.
yes, because kies is rubbish....
settings - about phone - update... Over The Air update is probably not available lol ...
With odin you can flash stock updates... really simple, but get used to the phone and if you want to take the leap, its not difficult but do plenty of reading, it can a bit daunting initially...
Is there anything wrong with your phone or just hungry for the latest version?
OTA is not in use/working for many yet but is supposed to be working when ICS is released .

You said you're in the US? Then there isn't a stock ROM for the i9100 for your region. I'm in the US too. You should be able to use any from Intratech's official firmware thread just fine. I flashed from XWKE7 for the UK (2.3.3), that came with the phone, to XXKI3 for Poland (2.3.5). Haven't found a need to upgrade beyond that yet, but there are newer versions available.

Searched around a lot about this, and just really need some clarification.
When connecting to Kies I'm prompted about the latest firmware PDA:KG5 / phone:KG1 / CSC:KG1 (XSG.) Is this the official release of 2.3.4 or 2.3.5? and what is the proper term to call this update by, KG5 or KG1 (not sure if you use the PDA # or the phone/CSC # to state which firmware Im using during online conversation.)
Also I am currently rooted on PDA:KF3 / Phone:KF1 / CSC:KF2 (XSG.) Which is 2.3.3. I know I will loose my root / super user status if I do the firmware update via Kies.
If I do update to the KG5 firmware listed above, what is the best method to root? If the firmware update I listed above is 2.3.4, Can I use the same method as listed all over the place to root the leaked version of 2.3.4 that came out in early July (I believe it was KG3?) The method is pretty much Orion & super one click.
If the firmware update I listed above is 2.3.5, what is the best way to root it? All in all, I'm not sure if you can root a stock release from Samsung the same way as a leaked version.
Thanks in advance everyone, this is my first Android phone after years in IOS so I apologize in advance if my question makes no sense. I'm doing my best!
Don't get too much confused.
It's an official release and you should update. No way it will be 2.3.5. Then you could use Chainfire's kernel for root. Normally we quote the PDA version as firmware, so you could quote it as KG5.
Link to CF kernel thread,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
Regards.
Thank You very much for the clarification.
I will try that out.
I would flash with odin, kies might brick your phone. by the way, you can flash cf kernel again, but first install original firmware. It must be three parts and a pit file,
Repartition box should be checked.
You will lose your data, secure your phone with titanium backup then you can restore you apps and give them back their memories.
hope it helps.

Hold on mate, Kies would brick your phone?
Well well well, I haven't heard this ever and I don't think it is true. Bricking a device is not an easy thing. Well I like Odin too, that's because of it has some other connection/drivers problem sometimes, but 'Bricking'? Nah, Negative.
The other thing is, I'd always recommend update via Kies if the user is new comer and have less idea about upgradation, he could do some mistakes in Odin, but never in Kies.

Thanks ithehappy. I looked hard to find this thread and glad for it. I was about to flash from KF2 to the new one offered by the updated Kies software - firmware version KG5 in my case. Atm I have a rooted phone and replaced the stock XXKF2 kernal back using ODIN successfully using the one offered here somewhere on XDA. (got rid of the yellow triangle issue on boot).
Do you think if I flash using Kies all will be right??? Just got nervous from what the other poster said... I am not overly interested in rooting again, It was mere experimentation that made me do it in the first place. Cheers & thanks for your time.
To mooksy
if you have replaced the unofficial firmware or kernal back to the original everything will be fine.The only problem you will have is that if you havent replaced all the non-official with official then kies wont recognise your phone anyway and you wont be able to update that way.

Thanks cooza, I have read the thread on here concerning the KD5 update and a lot of people make the process sound really confusing to say the least, obsessive IMHO . Is it worth the trouble updating the SGS2 right now? Afterall my phone is fine and I thought rooting would be some kind of epiphany but to me its just... (shrugs shoulder)

1. It would be the release of 2.3.4 as as the other on has not been leaked yet,
there is only one trial version in the CM7 but it is a work in progress.
2. You would call it by its PDA # KG5. CSC and Phone can be any
combination depend on which country you are in.
3. yes, after flashing you will need to reroot again.
4. Just use chainfire Kg5 root. You will not need to use super one click as
chainfire has done all the work for you.
use this thread for rooting.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
5. you can root a stock version the same as a leaked version. You may have to
wait a day or so till chainfire has made a root for it. He is usually on top of
it as soon as someone sends him the kernal.

If you are happy with your phone and your not much of a flasher or rom changer and all that then just stay as you are if your happy.Unrooting and flashing to the lastest via kies is also a good idea cos kies is an official update so can only bring good things,right.If you feel the need then re-root.Kies is always a safe bet if your new to updates and at least they are all offiall so if something did happen samsung would have to cover it while odin is an "at your own risk" deal.

Sorry off-topic (ish) I read that you bricked two of your phones using tar files for sgs2 on sgs, did you manage to jig it back to life and with any success? I want to root again after using Kies for KG5 update. but now i'll use CF's work on here. After reading that other sites could result in potential disaster I think I was lucky , i too just googled a random site for the rooting kit.
Unfortunatly for me i damaged the bootloader so the jig wont work.Im going to have to find someone with a riff box jtag and see if that works.I hope its does.If i cant find anyone with one ill just have to buy it myself.Worth the money when its 2 phones that need to be done.My bricking came from a site that mixed up phones with other phones firmwares.Wont be going back there again and that was before i hooked up to XDA anyway.Now all my downloads are done from here as this a good site to be with.
I want to revert my phone back to the 2.3.3 firmware that it shipped with so that I can update via kies. I'm in the UK and purchased the phone from Phones 4U but have since installed the 4.0.3 beta. I cannot find any forums or answers that help me and just keep getting linked to a forum page with hundreds of versions that mean nothing to me. Any help is greatly appreciated.
What was your original kernel version before you flashed?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I am not sure :/ I didn't know I'd need it after flashing.
First off, I'd suggest you forget Kies. A lot of UK users were reporting that Kies is telling them they have the latest version when they were on 2.3.4.
Have a look at Intratech's official firmware thread. A lot of the files are still linked to multiupload, which is broken due to multiupload being shut down...
However, XWLA4, which is the latest official release (2.3.6) on that page is hosted on his own domain. You should be able to download that one and flash it through Odin.
Thanks, That says it's German though :/ Ohhh do you mean the Frankenstein version? Is that stable?

German doesn't matter. They will all have English on them. My phone originally came with XWKE7 (UK). I'm currently running XXKI3 (Poland).
The Frankenstein version is stable; I think all Intratech did on those is mixed and matched the PDA, CSC, and modems. They are otherwise stock, but FYI, they won't get recognized by Kies.
But I'd try the non-Frankenstein one first, personally. Up to you though.
Is there not one available for the UK that will allow me to update via kies?

Latest one for UK via Kies is 2.3.4, I think. Look for XWKI4 on that thread, and you'll see a line "XEU (UK):". That one should work.
If you want to stick with Kies for updates, that's up to you. But I've always found Kies unreliable at best. It doesn't even always recognize my phone being plugged in.
Finding somewhere to download firmware is a right pain now multiupload is down, all the firmware on Samfirmware doesn't allow updating via kies as I tried the Europe version of 2.3.3 on there and it didn't work.

Hello everyone, as most of you know, today, March 10th, the official ICS was released on SGS2. I was previosly on CheckROM HD v6, i flashed a stock Firmware(KH3 1 file thru Odin), connected to Kies and i get the stupid error, your device does not support software update via Kies. Question is, why doesnt it still allow me to update even though im not on a custom ROM? Which firmware do i have to be on. in order to update to ICS??
Are you sure You expect official ICS to show up on KIES today..?
The latest is.. No dates for ICS yet..
Regarding your current ROM.. you haven't flashed the right one.. KIES will only recognize the official ROM for your region... As per it came installed when you got the phone
kies sucks, i have never got any service out of it other than drivers, didnt support my samsung tab nor my s2 on stock rom, they just say its not supported, downgraded to kies 1.5 or 2.something and it just says you need to update your kies lol,
i hear it looks for updates based in your region so its best to wait till theres a recovery version or one extracted from kies.

ICS hasn't been released yet
I recommend you flash a 3 file ROM, to be as stock as possible, such as XXKI3
Who needs KIES? If you already flash with ODIN/CWM, having ICS in an ODIN flashable form is a matter of hours after the KIES version is released

Thank you for the breakdown. The way i saw it was, KIES will be the fastest way to get ICS, even before the file gets uploaded to XDA, thats why i went with it. Checked the Official Firmware thread, didnt see anything except the BETA 4.0 and tried KIES which didnt work. So its been moved back to the original date, March 15th? 15->10->15

Less. Usually, Sammobile gets the hold of files as soon as they are released on KIES or even before.
My guess is ICS will be a staggered release by region.
so unless you're lucky enough to be in the 1st region xda will have it before you get it via kies.

got my s3 yesterday and I thought I would try to upgrade officially rather than root straight away. tried kies first but wouldn't work and then I thought I would try the update through the phone but my phone doesn't have that in the about device bit.
so my questions are is there something wrong with my phone? and should I just use odin and flash the latest stock firmware? or which is the best custom firmware that keeps all the stock functions?
my apologies of this has all been covered before.
thanks
First we need to know what firmware have your phone preinstalled.
Type *#1234# in dialer.

Your phone should be able to receive OTA updates, Kies is for most users a pain in the xxx. Best way to update is to flash the updated rom through Odin (see item 2 and 3 in my signature). For custom roms see the developers thread, there are many good rom`s with all the stock features. My preference is what you see in my banner. First read up about rooting, flashing, CWM and stuff to avoid problems
Well, since you are asking in XDA, YES don't wait for OTA or Kies. Use odin to flash original firmware.
Root it as fast as you can
Try every custom roms until you found the one you like the most.
Happy flashing

You say Kies does not work ???
No update well that begs the question is their an update for your phone .
No OTA in settings About Phone System Update that suggestions that the vendor has removed OTA updates .If so firmware updates are via Kies when the vendor decides to push them out .

thanks for the reply. did try with kies and it was updating but timed out twice so I gave up. my current firmware is BVLAF4.
I looking to restore my S3 to stock so i can receive official updates
would this be the correct procedure
Use triangle away to reset flash counter
Flash a stock firmware via odin
For example
I9300XXDLJ4 Download
Base Firmware: I9300XXDLJ4 (4.1.1)
Region Europe
Country: United Kingdom
Carrier: Unbranded
Build Date: 19 October 2012
Modem: XXDLID
CSC: OXADLJ4

Would this then enable OTA updates

Why no ? you flash it with a stock rom 4.1.1 and if a OTA 4.1.2 will be released then why won't he receive it ? I don't get it since the rom is official and will remove everything else that was installed on the phone.

If you flash your S3 with Odin it will increase the flash counter and change status to modified which will break OTA. Not the same with the 2 year old Nexus S as you'll know. The newer S3 has been modified to detect modifications. There are ways around this using mobile Odin etc. but this is just one indication that just because something works on your 2 year old Nexus S doesn't mean it'll work on the latest technology S3.
It's also why I keep bleating on about not giving advice based on supposition, conjecture or what Joe Bloggs posted elsewhere...advice should be based on experience otherwise its worthless, or even worse, misleading and dangerous.

OK thanks for the info, now a newer question. What will happen if someone flashed a stock firmware (4.0.4 dutch) with a stock firmware (4.1.1 poland) via odin ? Will the OTA be blocked as well ? And what will happen if you flash it later with a 4.1.1 dutch stock firmware via odin ?
A friend of mine never rooted or messed with his phone, he only used odin so he could get jellybean faster.
Edit: His flashcounter said this
