I rooted my galaxy S2 I9100G on Android 2.3.6.
Can I update to Official ICS by clicking on option "Settings---> About phone----->Software Update" ?
No, You can't. The best way is flash ICS thru Odin. But then you must do the rooting process again.

Hey, rooted my SG2 and was wondering when a new android version is available to update through kies will I be able to update ?? or will I have to revert back to the original kernal. Thanks

Suck it and see or update via ODIN .

Hi, I had rooted my galaxy FIT on stock rom with gingerbread 2.3.4 & firmware version S5670DDKQ5 using SUPERONECLICK earlier.
Recently my fone was upgraded by samsung kies to gingerbread 2.3.6 & firmware version S5670DDKT2, and after the upgrade I was unrooted again
When I tried to root again, all my attempts failed, I used SuperOneClick 2.3.3 to root my fone again, but it failed after STEP 7.
So can anyone please tell me, why can't I root my fone now, has SAMSUNG patched the zergrush exploit?
If so how do I root again?, I mean it should be safe enough to try coz I don't wanna brick my phone....
Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance
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...
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.
