Grab a ROM & flash with ODIN don't matter what country YOUR phone is from or where you use it unless there is a specific language required & the ROM you grab doesn't carry it, then you'll have to look a little harder!

It is a UK unbranded handset

[Q] CSC issue after ROM upgrade

Hi,
I'm new to Android and Galaxy S2. My phone was purchased in Spain from Vodafone.
I have just upgraded my ROM as per Intratech's guide (thanks by the way for the nice gude). The upgrade went good but after upgrae Kies shows the old CSC and says it can't update. Is this expected? I thought the CSC was supposed to change to the generic one.
I used ROM XWKE7 from the guide. After upgrade I get the following:
Doing *#1234#, I get:
PDA: I9100XWKE7
PHONE: I9100XXKE4
CSC: I9100XEUKD1
Doing *#272*<your IMEI>#, I get
ATL
In Kies it shows:
PDA: KE7 / PHONE: KE4 / CSC:KD1(ATL)
- Can someone please clarify?
- I'd also like to know if after this I still have to do something else to unlock the phone to use with a different provider.
- I was hoping to leave the phone as unbranded so future updates will be picked up through Kies.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Debranding is not unlocking .

[Q] GT-I9100 does not support firmware upgrade.

Hello!
I just bought the S2 White, and it's on 2.3.3.
I tried to update the software from phone, but it says, "No new updates".
I connected the phone to KIES (Windows 7 Home Premium x64),
& it says, "GT-I9100 does not support firmware upgrade."
PDA: KE7
PHONE: KE4
CSC: KD1(H3G)
Can someone help me please to update it ???
(I don't understand why KIES says that my phone does not support firmware upgrade :S)
Maybe it has been flashed an unsupported version firmware.
Anyway you can upgrade to any firmware you want throught odin.
Look in the forum for a guide how to flash with odin

It says it cannot be updated because your firmware is mixed for some reason, latest H3G is:-
PDA: I9100XWKI4
PHONE: I9100NEKI1
CSC: I9100H3GKI1
faill debrand!!flash again!

I had a similar problem. Then updated Kies and it said that it's not possible to update my firmware!
I went to the thread with the stock firmwares. Chose the current UK 2.3.4 firmware and flashed via Odin. Totally painless and very straightforward. Then checked on my phone for software updates, non available and checked via Kies and says my firmware is up to date.
This seems to have corrected the problem.
People still use Kies?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Just looked through the guides for doing this and I can only seem to see stuff for Vodafone, 3, O2 etc. I've got an unlocked S2 that I think is running out of date software and thought I would try updating manually as Kies is telling me my phone does not support updates lol. Mine is running:
PDA: I9100XWKF3
PHONE: I9100XXKE7
CSC: I9100XEUKD1
So is my software out of date and if so how can I update it please?

OK so I have found the custom ROM for my S2 but what is the point of putting the same one back on there that is already running? The question I had was 'what is the latest version and how do I install that?'
The reason for all this by the way is that I am sick of the poor battery life of the phone and have been told that the latest version of the software improves it but unfortunately Kies seems to think that my phone is not able to be upgraded!
Are you on OS X by any chance?

Your versions are valid XWKF3 XEU, and it should update to:-
PDA: I9100XWKI4
PHONE: I9100XXKI1
CSC: I9100XEUKH2
If Kies says it cannot be updated your product code is probably wrong.
Hello,
Kies give me the same message "GT-I9100 does not support firmware upgrade."
and shows these versions on my S2,
PDA: KF3
PHONE: KE4
CSC: KF3(INU)
It shows the same as the latest firmware versions just below.
Does anyone know when these above versions were released ?
lol I know its possible to update, but whats wrong with kies

I always use Odin to flash firmwares, but on one occasion I used Kies
but that takes too long
Won't be doing that again in a rush!

Help needed, strange one!

Hi guys
I've been looking to update my galaxy s2 to ICS for a while now but it doesn't seem to respond to ANYTHING i've read on forums so far.
It was broken (screen) so has been away for repair.
Now if i try to update OTA it seems fine until reboot then stops at 14% and comes up failed. Kies also says my device cannot be updated using kies?
I'm still on gingerbread 2.3.3!
Kies also wont backup my data telling me there's not enough free space on the PC when there is plenty.
I have read ALOT on this but am now completely out of ideas, any help what to do from here would be fantastic!
Here's some info from about phone phone:
Baseband: I1900XXKE4
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I1900XWKE1-CL181974
[email protected] #2
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.XWKE1
Here's info from *#1234#
PDA: I1900XWKE1
PHONE: I1900XXKE4
CSC: I1900XEUKD1
Any help would be really appreaciated as it seems from searching no-one else actually has the same info on their phone as me which i find strange.
contacts are already backuped in your google account or you can try this software http://www.moborobo.com/
For Firmware Go To samfirmware.com Download the firmware from there and flash with odin search the forum how to flash with odin..

Thanks very much nitinvaid, i'll try that.
I already have odin just wasn't sure which fw to flash to it, definitely dont want to brick it as it's still under warranty.
I'm not wanting spoonfed or anything but should it be obvious which firmware i should be using? is it official samsung fw?
Thanks again

Pretty simple actually! Just got to sammobile.com, make an id and log in. In the "Firmwares" section, you will be able to download your country's/carrier's latest official firmware. Download the file, unzip and flash via Odin.
And do not worry about the warranty, the firmwares on Sammobile are official firmware. Flashing them will not void your warranty, unless you root..!
Best of luck...!
Sorry but one more question, might sound easy to you guys but all these letters and numbers mean nothing to me
Can i go straight to this fw from 2.3.3 using odin?

Yes, you can. Just get a "How to update to ICS via odin" tutorial on the internet (it's everywhere) and follow it properly, there's no mistake
Don't forget to close Kies and the KiesTrayAgent (with task manager) before flashing with odin.

If you are going to flash the XWLPT firmware be careful as it contains the dreaded "hard brick bug" I would suggest flashing a custom Kernel straight away ie Siyah Kernel. As this will remove the bug

Install a custom Rom and Kernel. You will not go back to stock!! Root your phone first. Backup your stock rom with CWM in case something happens. I would do this before using any of the solutions that previous comments have given you. Some times even if you are following the right instructions you will get a soft brick. Its best to have everything backed up before attempting any updates of Roms. There is so many tutorials out there to do this. This would be the easiest solution and also the best solution to your problem. Everybody too have seemed to have moved to Jelly Bean 4.1 not ICS 4.0.3/4.0.4. My opinion i prefer Jelly Bean than ICS. Look into rooting, installing custom Roms and Kernels.
