[Q] Possible to force firmware installation? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I downloaded the new firmware via OTA on my rotted phone, and it didn't install. I re-rooted it with CF-Root 6.3, but now If I check for software update it says "no update available." The build though is still the old I9300XXALE8 instead of ALF6, so I guess it isn't updated.
Is the updated firmware file saved somewhere, and if yes can I install it via CWM?
What else can I do?
Thanks
Jay

umm you could try sammobile or this link to go directly to sgs3 european official roms
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9300&r=1#regiona
and flash it using odin/mobile odin. Mobile odin would probably be better as you can keep root when u flash it

We have a stock rom post look there first .

I'm assuming that you are refering to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610
However, I have similar questions as the original poster.
I have CF-Root rooted stock firmware (Sweden, unbranded) and would like to update to the latest available (OTA failed). I know that I can download from sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com, but I have no idea which one to use.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9300&r=1
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9300
What has to match? CSC, Country/Carrier? Please enlighten me.

Well I'm new to the galaxy series so I couldn't be 100% sure about what you need to match to be sure you get right one. But I do know if you've used cf root you can still connect to kies, you could connect and either check firmware upgrade version then download that vers from one of the sites or update your phone with kies then type *#1234# in the dialler then using that info download that vers of the firmware to have in the future.
If you do go kies option you'll most likely need to cf root once upgraded and I can't be 100% sure it'll work as I updated my phone with kies before rooting but I know cf root doesn't change anything major so kies should still be able to upgrade.

I'm trying to avoid using Kies. Don't want to install it even. Still "download from one of the sites" is not too assuring. How do I know what sites to trust?
Also, my question was rather does me download have to match entirely or is it enough with the same region?
E.g. one of the links above has the Italian LF6 as latest version. Can I use that?

well i use sammobile as its the one quoted in the cf root post under the uninstall instructions, I didnt know about samsung-updates till today. Well u could just install kies to see what firmware code its showing as the upgrade then uninstall. Im just checking sammobile at mo for ya
edit:- when u type *#1234# into your keypad whats the 3 codes it spits out?

I checked the sites out and it seems only the full roms are available. Actually I'd prefer just to flash the firmware so that I don't loose all my apps and settings. Or is there a way around this? I realise it's a lame question, but I'm new...
Here is the result of *#1234#
AP: I9300XXALE8
CP: I9300DXLE8
CSC: I9300LBALE5
Thanks for the help

Yeah there orig samsung roms(firmwares), trick is to get the one for your country/region
Ok , if your sure the updated firmware should be a ALF6 version theres only 2 on sammobile
1. Germany unbranded
2. Italy
Wheres about are u from?
Have you tried the kies update method i mentioned earlier?
Kies is samsungs official software for managing your samsung android device it can sync contacts, backup data etc etc but also to update official firmware.
http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/JSP
I have it installed but not using it for backups etc just for when firmware updates are available.
Youve used cf root so the kies method should work ok but youll just need to reroot afterwards.

After several attempts, I managed to use Kies... I had to use a different USB port and it worked.
Thanks a lot!

[Q] Offical version for India - samsung galaxy s2

Hi,
So i updated my galaxy s2 firmware to latest indian firmware available on this site. (Plz check attached screenshot).... all went well & the battery life has improved aswell.
The problem is kies does not like odin software updates so in future i will need to depend on these sites for firmware updates... which somehow i dont prefer.
What i want is offical firmware for galaxy s2 (India) which kies will recoginze... can any one help me with the link...
Thx
You are on KF3, which is the official latest firmware available for India, so why would you worry? You are fine enough to receive updates via Kies. Just connect your phone to Kies and it will say, 'This is the latest firmware'.
Besides, you can download official firmwares from www.samfirmware.com OR from Intratech's thread here under Dev section.
Regards.
Well, this may help. What you already have will be recognized by Kies because its stock.
It says "This version of the device cannot be updated"
(Check screenshot)
why does it says that.
Any helps guys ????
"It says "This version of the device cannot be updated""
So what have you done to deserve this? lol.....
Jokes apart, why did you update from Odin if you wanted to update to a Stock Rom (KF3)only? You could have left your firmware untampered if you wished to update via Kies only.
Obviously the KF3 which you have flashed via Odin is not exactly the same as the one that comes from Kies, otherwise why would it say, "This version of the device cannot be updated"..........or maybe it means the same as "this is the latest version"? Now you will be able to confirm this only when a new firmware update is available in India via Kies, which should be soon.
Guys I can use this firmware(see screenshot below) right? As mentioned in this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
That one is the official Samsung firmware right? Samfirmware.com still shows KE8 as latest for India, so I am a bit confused.
Kies shows the update is available but I cant update using Kies, it is a real pain. So want to download the official Samsung firmware and then update using Odin.
Thanks.

You need to go back to the OFFICIAL STOCK ROM OF KE8 first. Then after that, you will be able to update to KF3 via Kies.

I am on the Official stock ROM of KE8. And Kies tell me that the update is available(KF3). The matter is I don't want to update using Kies, because of the bad experiences in the past. It half-bricked my phone twice while midway in the update process. And it always drops the connection while downloading the firmware. I no longer want to use Kies.
So what I was asking is that, in the screenshot above, that is the official samsung firmware right? I want to update my firmware using Odin not Kies.
I hope you understand.

R3Y, is Reborn4U also your id? From the conversation that has gone on in this thread so far, it certainly seems both are your ids. If they are, then I'm sorry to say that you're contradicting yourself so much that you are not making any sense! First you posted (as Reborn4u), "What i want is offical firmware for galaxy s2 (India) which kies will recoginze... can any one help me with the link...". And now you are saying, "So what I was asking is that, in the screenshot above, that is the official samsung firmware right? I want to update my firmware using Odin not Kies." .......... Do you see the contradiction in both these statements?
Anyway, I'm assuming your last statement to be true that you want to update firmware using Odin and not Kies. So if that is the case, then why do you care whether you have the official samsung firmware or not? If you want to use Odin only, then forget Kies.....why do care whether Kies will recognize your firmware or not! ........ The latest official Samsung firmware for India is KF3. If samfirmware shows KE8 as the latest official firmware for India, then they are wrong!
So after all your confusing statements, my suggestion to you is to upgrade to either KG3 or KG5 which are available on XDA forum. You will also get Android 2.3.4 with them which you don't get with KF3. And if you want to use Odin, then forget about Kies completely. Cheers!
Sorry to disappoint you but no that is not my id. Now when you are confusing yourself thinking that is my id and combining his and my questions and making all kinds of assumptions yourself, I cannot help.
I never said I care about Kies. My question was simple, I want to flash my phone with official samsung firmware using Odin and asked whether the file in that screenshot is official samsung firmware or not.
Thanks for you help(If any)
I have better things to do than making useless double ids.

R3Y, the confusion was created by you mentioning "that screenshot". I thought you were talking about the screenshot posted by Reborn4u. What you had posted looked more like a Copy-pasted text than a screenshot, hence the confusion. Also, your question is the exact opposite of the OP question......but still, sorry for the confusion. My mistake.

Yes, don't know why Samfirmware doesn't include the KF3! Anyway, download from here,

How get firmware updates for rooted SGS2

Rooting has nothing to do with firmware upgrades, if you were able to get updates via Kies, then you will continue receiving the updates, if you don't receive updates from Kies, then Odin is the only way, and the above thread is full of Official firmwares, which you could use to use with Odin.

Sifting through that thread only to find a POSSIBLE update is a real chore, isn't there is place that only displays the latest firmwares for each version, no questions asked? (mine is XWKF3)
Thanks
There is an app called "check fus" that will do exactly what you want.
Whenever you update you loose root. Simply flashing the cfroot kernel that matches the kernel in the update gives you root again. Takes a few seconds via Odin whenever needed.
Check for updates using checkfus then download the no wipe update from intratechs thread (it will be there) and flash, then download cfroot kernel from chainfires thread and flash.
Kies is slow and has problems.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Thanks about the tip about "check fus". I installed it and it says there is an update for 'NEE' (Nordic countries) which is correct and where I am, and the product code I currently have is exactly the one below (but not the SWVER though!):
Code:
Nordic countries
Product Code: GT-I9100LKANEE
Version: Android 2.3.3
HIDSWVER: I9100XWKDD/I9100OXXKDC/I9100XXKDH/I9100XWKDD
but I don't understand the PDA version it recommends (XWKI8), as that version, according to the website of "fus", belongs to Kazakhstan (but the version is newer):
Code:
Kazakhstan
Product Code: GT-I9100LKASKZ
Version: Android 2.3.5
HIDSWVER: I9100XWKI8/I9100OXEKI2/I9100XXKI4/I9100XWKI8
So how am I supposed to interpret this? Should I really install a version for Kazakhstan, even though the product code nor any of the SWVERs does not coincide with what I have now??
Maybe someone like intratech could answer that for you.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
A quick update: I connected my phone to Kies and it also suggested the KI8 firmware update, so I decided to go ahead and update right there and then, and it worked fine, I'm now on 2.3.5.
But now I want to root, and going back to the original CF-root thread, on which I relied for my first root, it says that the corresponding KI8 kernel is "insecure" (while the previous kernel was "secure"):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17704099&postcount=6
What does it mean that it's "insecure"? Why the difference compared to the previous, secure kernel?

Unlocked Ace, want Generic firmware

I have an Unlocked Samsung Ace, which was locked to Optus Australia earlier.

csc s5830oppks5
network lock off
network subset lock off
sp lock off
cp lock off
I just don't Optus app everywhere and running in background. Can I use a Generic Firmware ?
If yes can someone guide me or just provide links ?
I even tried to Root it with <upd_1 & AceGingerRoot>, and I can see Superuser icon, but Titanium Back up and BusyBox says my phone is not rooted.
get stock roms from sampro.pl or sammobile and flash it using odin

Which ROM? Do I have to look for a specific ROM for my phone( according to PDA or CSC of my phone) or any one that is Gingerbread 2.3.4 or 2.3.5
get ddkq6 that is unbranded firmware and stable one [2.3.4]
Dear WiseMan Amit,
I am sorry to ask again, did u see read these stats *(pda s5830xwks9_phone s5830xwks2_csc s5830oppks5) of my phone before suggesting? I dont want a brick.
And after flashing that Rom, Will my phone update with Kies itself?
BTW what does this PDA PHONE and CSC mean? Shouldn't I choose a Rom according to them?
I am sorry again for bothering you. But .

i saw your version
flashing will not brick phone if you flash 5830 roms with proper instruction which you can get in some sticky
offcourse your phone will be updated through kies but you will have to wait for update for that specific region [in this case india if ddkq6]
all GB roms on sammobile are flashable for you...
PDA CSC stuffs give you info about region , specific identifier for update etc stuff
i was also very much concerned when first flash phone with odin... read instuctions carefully and flash device specific roms only
you might not be able to get updates through kies as samsung delays updates between regions.. so most of guys flash through odin itself
Thanx really a lot mate.
but I could only find DDKQ5. not 6
And as I am not able to root my phone, how do I back up my current Rom?
I couldnt resist and flashed S5830XWKS9_S5830XWKS2_S5830VGFKS1_HOME.tar.md5
Everything working but I have got Virgin Mobile shortcuts and Jeux game. Cant uninstall it.

It's available if you SEARCH in this forum
Herpderp Adreno + Tegra.
I was tempted to flash Russian 2.3.6 and I did it successfully. Cleared cache and factory reset and now even Kies accepts it and will update when available.
It is far better. I have lots of Ram available now.

[Q] Need the XWKI8 firmware and Stock Kernel for Telia Denmark

I was looking around for making my SGS2 "legal" again, flashing it with entirely "old" firmware, but the firmwares i found here, are not fitting the original description i have.

but the problem is;
[ROMS]Official i9100 carrier branded firmware download for Odin Flash
The only fitting my phone and operator is from the SP (3), where mine is Telia...

can i just flash either one from "telia" and then update normally via kies, or whats the best solution?
i want the SGS2 so legal that i could turn it in to my provider for service!
or any firmware for Telia
or can anyone link to me to any firmware hardcoded with telia's info?

You'd need the stock kernel relating to the rom, I've had no need to service so not sure, if anyone else who has had previous experience on this could help.
thought as much... and all the download links relating to the XWKK5 are busted
think im am going to try this one, until i find a legal one

Try Checkfus. There's a thread on here, search for it.
what should i do with that?
i dont need to check if there is an update, i just want either an older version kernel/firmware from Telia Denmark
which is working, so that i can update the old fashioned way!
or what was you intention with checkfus?
You can download the KI8 firmware with Checkfus. Try it & see

In my case, in the standard tab I chose Android/GT-I9100T/Australia (Vodafone), then I clicked on check firmware. Checkfus told me KJ1 was the latest available, I clicked download, waited for it to download the firmware and at the end of the process it automatically decrypted it.
Which gave me a zip containing a tarball (just like the firmware in Intratech's thread) I can flash in Odin if I ever need to go back to stock.
See... I didnt notice if my phone is a regular GTi9100 or a -T, -N or whatever the options are, how do i find such info, because i was so smart not to make a backup of my current settings :-(

Look on www.sammobile.com/firmware for samsung firmware.Telia is not listed, also not on check fus. So i think you need this rom http://www.hotfile.com/dl/163050326/a3cfdf1/I9300XXBLFB_I9300NEEBLF1_NEE.zip.html for the Nordic countries. Install Triangle Away (here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494114) first before flashing the rom with Odin to reset the flash counter. After you flashed the rom do a data/factory reset. Check first if the above rom i mentionedis the right one.
Was reading abit more (do not want to be stucked with a broken phone doing my vacation), found this is the I9300XXBLG6 the newest firmware and does it work for us on Telia in Denmark?

Better check on Telia`s website for the latest firmware. You might flash the rom in your post, however you may have to change the modem for better reception.

If i flash the new firmware again, do i need to root the phone again or does it "keep" the root i made earlier... Sorry for all the stupid questions i'm an old iphone fart. :silly:
I tried to search for a sammy wiki or something to become a little more clever about rooting, rom and firmware.
As i see it:
The firmware is kinda the phone bios, doesnt matter if you running a hacked version of the system or not.
The ROM is the "system" it might be stock or cyanogen etc.
You have to have a hacked firmware to be able root your phone.... Or am i totally wrong here?

If you buy Mobile Odin Pro and flash the firmware with that app you will keep root and you don`t loose no data. If you flash with Odin on your pc you will loose root and your user data will probably be deleted.
The firmware i just linked is it not possible to root using that and odin nonpro? Do i have to use an older firmware then?
