Hi all,
I bought my galaxy note already unlocked from Bell (currently being used on Fido). When I connect it to Kies, it gives me an error: firmware cannot be upgraded via Kies. My CRC is BMC and to my knowledge, the phone hasn't been rooted. Can someone please clarify how this happened? Also, would I still be eligible for the ICS update over the air?
Thanks. ~JT
Try kies mini and make sure u have the new drivers and yes u should be ok

Hi - Other than using Odin, any idea how to fix my Kies issue "your device does not support software upgrading via kies"?
I've read a few tips regarding the resetting of CSC, but I don't really understand in great detail what or why. My Galaxy Ace is:
on Vodacom (South Africa). Supplied by Vodacom. I have made no firmware changes (or anything).
PDA S5830XWKPU
PHONE S5830XWKP7
CSC S5830XFVKP1
It's on 2.3.3. I'm hoping to upgrade to 2.3.4 via Kies.
I have downloaded the very latest Kies from samsung's site, and done a fresh install (on Win 7 Ultimate 32-bit). I get the message:
"your device does not support software upgrading via kies".
I received this phone from the network provider (Vodacom) and have not changed anything.
Please advise?
Thanks
Fin
does that mean you have locked phone ??
if yes then you might need to wait for your provider to approve update and send it to you
it is not locked
I m also faceing same problem when conect to kies
I have latest version of kies
Plz sm1 help us
Operator of my phone do not let me upgrade Ace to 2.3. My friend have no-brand Ace and he get official update to 2.3. So i have used Odin and after 2 mins i got official 2.3.4 After that i couldn't use Kies but i don't care. I don't like this software... I manage my Ace via Google. Much easier and faster
Alright so i recently got a Galaxy S3 and rooted and flashed a leaked jellybean ROM onto it. Now that the official jelly bean has come out i want to update but i cant because kies says "Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies". so next i tried FOTA but that didnt work either: it said "Your device has been modified, software updates are not supported".
And of course i downloaded triangle away and that didnt work, ive tried flashing the official jelly bean update but it didnt boot so i was forced to restore from my modded backup. And ive re-installed kies twice.
any help would be appreciated.
my device is Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300T with vodafone australia currently running the DLH9 hawkish premium light ROM.
Cheers.

I would think your best bet would be to go back to the Galaxy S3 ICS stock rom and then use Kies to update it from there. A lot of the official updates will refuse to do anything if /system has been messed with.

You could update you Rom on the official way.
Install Samsung kies on your pc and connect your device with the pc. Kies should guide you through the update.
You can also

If kies says that there is no update available it means that the ics update is probably not released in your country.
You could wait till its official available or take the unofficial way and flash a custom rom.
use unofficial ways like installing cyanogenmod.. the kies update comes with touchwiz wich sux for me.. dont know about you...
Hello Experts,
I have bought a new Galaxy S2 mobile imported from Korea. The vendor says it is unlocked.
I had inserted my local sim and things are working fine.
The Android version currently running is Gingerbread.
I would like to know how can i update the version to JellyBean.
I read lot of articles and youtube videos on rooting the version, but i am confused and afraid.
My major doubts are, since it is from Korea, should i use the some Korean version of Jelly bean itslef to update.
When I connected to Kies, it says, this firmware cannot be update using Kies.
Can someone please help me here.
Ask in the S2 forums, they will help you better. Surely you will able to update your phone downloading the firmware from samfirmware.com to install it using Odin, but as I said, ask in the S2 forums to make sure.
Hey guys,
So I really want to upgrade my Rogers Samsung Galaxy Note II (SGH-i317M) to JB 4.3. I currently have JB 4.1.2. BUT, I'm currently rooted. I have used Framaroot to root my device and it's worked! When I get 4.3, I don't care if I have my data or not or if I'm rooted or not...
So my question is: Can I update through Kies? Will it brick?!
I'm pretty sure (and it is the case with my Galaxy SII) that Kies does not work with rooted phones. You may be able to unroot, update, then re-root.
