You have 9100 or 9100G??

If you want to update you i9100 then you can use Odin and flash a Firmware from SamMobile.They have all ICS Firmwares available.For the apps that dont work in your region and give you annoying messages then download "Titanium Backup" from the Play Store and freeze the app or uninstall it so it wont work and you dont get the message.

[Q] SGS2 - Official Android firmware ?

Hello,
I'm having a Samsung Galaxy s2 (GT-I9100) and I'm from India. Here, the latest android version as released by samsung is 2.3.3. And there are no updates whatsoever ! I want to update my android version. Is there any ofiicial samsung android release for sgs2 ? (2.3.4 or 2.3.5) ? I do not want to use install modded version of android ...
Thanks in advance ... !!
What have you tried so far? KIES or in the about update menu from within the phone? They're difference processes (funny, right? lol).
Try it via KIES.
I'm in England, I've also not yet rooted my S2 (although I probably will, to get rid of the bloatware crap- i.e. Game Hub etc)
We've only got a 2.3.4 official firmware available here. Sometimes this is up to your service provider to release it.
Your other option is to root, and flash an official firmware.
Or take a giant leap and read the INDIAN thread .

2.3.3 is the latest available for i9100 in india ..how ever you can install European countries firmware which is 2.3.6 latest...
you can meet other indian gs2 users here

just download the latest version from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 ..... i am currenlty using UK one and it works like a gem....if u want to root instructions are there in the same link.....
why u want to stuck to the old ones when you have the latest firmware, eventhough not for india.....but it works.....
@smilingcruel: Thanks for your reply and I did check the link there. There are loads of them. Which one to install ?
Same question, different country:
I have to revert my S2 to Samsung (annoying echo).
Currently it is on Miui.
I'd like to flash the latest Vodafone Germany version to preserve the secondary binary counter.
Does anybody know whether THIS is the latest and via Kies available version?
If it is not which is the right and latest one?

Samsung Galaxy SII a tricky one ....

Hi I have a Samsung Galaxy SII GT I9100 2.3.5 it I9100XXXK13, and Kernel 2.6.35 7-I9100XXK13-VL577579 [email protected]#2 and has gingerbread.XXK13. They send it to me from Luxembourg and I live in Greece. Greek samsung and Greek Kies Is updating Jelly bean.4.1.2 but when I connect the mobile it syncronizes it takes a back up but says it there is no firmware update. No techcnisian takes the responsibility because is from another country. I want a sure solution beacause I am psychologist and I have a lot of apps for psychology and psychiatry and some of them paid and for sure I dont want my mobile to lock ,
If you know a sure way to update to Jelly bean 4.1.2 I would appreciated a lot !
thank you very much
Try with Odin search online for tutorials and the files. And I think this belongs more in the question or general forum
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
You need to change the phone's region (called CDC if I'm not mistaken) to receive Greek firmware via Kies. Yes, doing so may lock your phone so I suggest to root it, install CM 10.1 and not using Kies ever again.
today I found out that the phone is already rooted , so this changes things and explain why Kies is not upgrating,, so probably I has to install Luxebourg firmware and make the proccess through Odin,, I have to read about it ..thanks for your answer !

[Q] Galaxy S3 Neo (I9300I) flashing and countries

I bought a galaxy s3 neo + (model GT I9300I) in China, which came with a chinese version of android without any of the google services (as google is censored over there).
I'm now living in the UK and would like to flash my phone using an official samsung android 4.4.2 ROM (found on the live samsung updates websiet) so I can get access to the google services. The problem is that in that list there are only countries like Russia, China, India... Can I just use one of them and set the language to english? Should I use another ROM?
Thanks!
