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
Greg
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 .

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:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
After that I rooted my phone as described here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
Now, I came across an overclock! Here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13709259#post13709259
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

you say KF2 is latest uk firmware though OP's info states generic (poland).
are you sure?
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.

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.

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 .

Hi, I have flashed my S2 19100 from gingerbread to ICS via odin, when I go to change the CSC code to UK there is only one option which is KOR how can I put more options on my mobile so I can change it to my region. So I'm just wondering if it's possible to add an additional country to the Regional Settings, quite frustratring as Kies see mobile and I can do everythin on it except update firmware, not too bothered anout Kies I just want to know why and the CSC seems to be the only thing left to try - that is changing it...

Hi there,
I have a phone bought an unlocked phone from Romania, and I've tried various roms and kernels for 1 year.
Now I want to sell my phone to a friend, but he wants to have the device being able to be updated through kies (he doesn't want custom roms, stock will do for him)
The problem is that I can't get it to be recognized by Kies.
What are the prerequisites to make a firmware to be recognized by Kies as an official stock rom, and after that to be able to update the phone via Kies?
I've tried different firmwares from sammobile, but didn't get neither to be Kies compatible, so please help me.
Thanks in advance!

first, do u know the firmware u had on ur phone when u bought it. since that would be a very usefull info to proceed
second try downloading a firmware from sammobile pertained to Romania flash the same thro ODIN and see
Unfortunatley not, when I've used the phone for myself, I didn't plan to use Kies ever (useless bloatware) and I've flashed so many kernels and roms that I forgot about
Now I can't get it to be an unlocked international version. I will try right now an Orange firmware from sammobile, but I was wondering...do I need to flash a diffrent CSC or stuff like that? I don't know at what Kies looks to validate a phone being eligible for update or not.

its the CSC which makes the diff, when KIES tries to recognise the phone
so after flashing any stock rom u can always change the CSC pertained to ur region, so that u will not have issues with KIES
I've flashed an Orange Romania firmware and the *#1234# command returns this:
PDA: I9100BVLPB
PHONE: I91000BVLPB
CSC: unknown
How can I get the correct CSC for Orange Romania? I've understand that its code is named ORO.
Help on this is really appreciated

After reading and trying diffrent firmwares flashed with Odin, I've found that all the files that I've needed pda, kernel, csc were inside the damn filme I've downloaded from sammobile Luckly I also had a linux virtual machine to cread some separate flashable odin packages for each component, pda, kernel and csc. I've learned this from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1082288
Hope this info helps others in my previous situation
Now the phone is recognized by Kies and just updated to the latest firmware available for ORA (although a few reboots and wipe were needed before Kies actually recognized this device)

The reason why kies is not recognising your device is because the CSC code is unknown.
Use this app to change the CSC code to your country/region : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manniakk.cscselector&hl=en
Note that the process will wipe your phone so please backup your important data.
