You'll probably see that for a loooong time. Your carrier hasn't released any update for your device.
If you want to update, read, study, read some more, then... before anything else... backup EVERYTHING including your EFS FOLDER before you attempt any flashing or updating.
If you do that, you'll save yourself, and everyone who attempts to guide and assist you here in the future, a world of trouble.
Learning how to backup your EFS folder is more important than anything else you do (if you want to have an actual phone and not just a $700 media player, that is).
BTW, you are new, but questions are posted in the Q&A section. You posted in General. This will probably be moved.
Probably there's no new update available in your region or your phone is branded.

try using kies, had the same "issue"
With my baseband version under which region do I fall because I bought it from a Samsung shop in ghana..
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
just download samsung kies and check for updates, if kies says there are no updates wait a bit more, cause that's a carrier issue
Again baseband is not your firmware version.

My unbranded phone has never been able to get OTA updates for some reason, I have always had to use kies, I get this message when there is an update.
Happens every time I try and haven't been able to solve it.

As per multiple posts and answers .
You are in a queue wait .
Why anyone joins XDA Developers forum to use Samsung updates services is beyond my understanding .

It depends where you live and what network provider you use, see link below.

Samsung stock release 2.3.4 on these forum long time .

Presume uk comes under "rest of Europe" thanks I'll keep an eye on it
Weird in which way they have released it .... Re forum 2.3.4 don't you have to root to get it ? instead of kieselguhr ? And if you do update how do you stand with warranty ?
No stock Samsung rom is a flash via Odin nothing to do with root ,

Not much of a change with 2.3.4 people have been flashing the non official 2.3.4 firmware via Odin for almost a month now.
And the way things are going samsung may not include gtalk video otherwise I dont see much differnece between the two.
If you are itchy to get it you can always flash the unofficial ones .. INTRATECH has got quite of them non wipe if you do wish.
I thought it would bring changes:< better battery life and more speed plus less bugs (don't know why I need more speed s2 is Mega fast anyway) .... has android run out of ideas? I don't know if 3d is a gimick but I might have to go this way only thing which puts me off is just experience with the sensation it was awful hence me getting s2
I am frightened of bricking my phone hence why I don't like the idea of non official....

with 2.3.4 roms i couldnt tell if it was faster at all
but the KF3 rom(2.3.3) had more battery life than the KG rom (2.3.4)
dont be scared of bricking
after rooting ur phone once and getting CWM
ull almost never need to use Odin again
just use your own phone to flash new roms
but if you want to stay legit just update using Kies
Not seeing a FOTA update to 2.3.4 on my sensation.
kg5 was officially released at least two weeks ago in Poland and is available by kies, so what is the problem again?

Well for starters it is official Samsung firmware not something cooked up .
Two its almost impossible to brick SGS2 ( almost )
Three the method to update to stock is relatively simple and phone still covered under Samsungs warranty .
Four you wait not for Samsung to release the firmware upgrade but the phone provider to accept that update and upload or not to Kies as the official update method .
Five XDA Developers forum is a bit useless if its all Kies updates .

Oh apparently HTC has released it in some regions this morning.... So this automatically means Samsung should release it too because all firmware updates should be synchronous. I don't see the reasoning behind your post, maybe you would care to explain.
I was asking cos HTC are the worst for updating firmware and they are quick with 2.3.4 I hate some of the attitudes on this forum I asked a simple question and am glad there are some polite people out there
Thank you to the polite people who responded.....
I shall wait to see when Samsung release in the uk.... i don't want to jump ship from s2 to evidence 3d so hopefully Samsung won't let us down
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
Well i think HTC release of updates are more worldwide and all almost together. Samsung is like different times for different countries and if you have branded one is even more difficult to have an update quickly.
I'm glad I'm unbranded it's strange how they release em seem to go from one side of the world then back to one European country then to the tother. Will wait for the uk to get it

Is this it? Could it be the long awaited ICS?
If so, I hope the GPS bug from the last leak is fixed.
"Current software is up to date" is all I see.
Anybody else? I am in Canada on Bell, on Team Perfection rom so I cannot verify anything here.
More than likely not ics.
Way to tell us what carrier you are on, OP.
Current Software is up to date

nothing from KIES or checking OTA with ATT. Software is up to date.
Happened on mine the other day (USA ATT), but my guess is that is the default message that appears when you check for a software update with weak/fringe cellular service.
I attached a screencap of the message.
Trust me its not it lol

I had the same thing the other day. Happened when I received my replacement phone from At&t.

Every damn time someone's phone can't reach the server, we have to see a thread about it.
Hey at&t, the wording of that message sucks and confuses people.
It happened to me the other day.... I checked xda and there were no party-popers going off so I cried :crying: a little and figured it was a false alarm
I doubt it will come OTA. More likely on Kies like the SGSII on ATT.

my Korean Galaxy note is trying to update with a 34.75MB update i am not sure what it is as my phone will not take it because it is rooted and has a custom recovery. The phone reboots to install the update but fails. Any Ideal what I can do ?

Hi, sorry if this has been asked before but I promise I have tried to find a solution prior to posting here.
This morning I have received the notification of software update I guess to JB and I have selected cancel download by mistake. Since then I cannot get the update back on my phone, I have tried scanning for the update and all sorts but nothing seems to work.
Anyone here have any idea how to get the phone back to update? I would prefer not to use kies if possible.

Keep auto update on maybe? If not then dont worry. Its probably just some bug fixes. If your desperate tho maybe you can find the stock rom updated v. And flash it in odin

You're welcome.
If it's any consolation it won't be Jellybean update as the rumour mill suggests there won't be an official JB release until late August.

If you couldn't download the update manually, just wait. It'll come again in a day or two.
Hi all. I unlocked my Phone via Cellunlocker.net. successfully. and I know that unlocked devices get updates sooner. Does that mean I will now get updates sooner? If not, is there any way of getting them sooner? without flashing or anything, just via kies.
here is what it says if that's any help

nope. unlocked devices/ unbranded get the update first....then locked ones to carriers get it next. sometimes months later.

nope, unlocked phones (SIM) dont have any special treatment, the only way to get updates earlier is by unbranding your phone and that's not even a reason to have it soon, it depends on the roll out
Fact is carriers get the update at the same time but do not push it out until tested and modded. Time scale varys.
Want updates join XDA and flash stock roms.

I'm new to the site so please excuse my potential ignorance if this has been previously answered or if I missed anything.
So, I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 i9305. It was originally on T-Mobile UK but was completely unbranded so on startup doesn't show t-mobile, no network bloatware etc... and I have since had it unlocked (via unlock code, not root)
Waiting for the premium suite update has prompted me to wonder... as I am unlocked am I still governed by t-mobiles wait times to release the update (I actually use a voda SIM in it)? Or as its unlocked/unbranded should I effectively be at the front of the queue as it wereand receive it with other unlocked handsets? Or will I not get it at all as I'm not using a t-mobile SIM?
I'm becoming very impatient waiting for the update as got rid of my note ii in anticipation for the s3 receiving the update. Which after giving more thought to I'm not even sure if I will receive as I have the i9305 rather than the i9300 and they didn't really say specifically who the update was for?
I am on the cusp of rooting just so that I can add the premium suite on the Rom but have limited experience in rooting (only done it a couple of times) worried that I'll miss something and wont be able to return it to stock once the upgrade becomes available via kies as there are so many different guides/roms/software
Appreciate your thoughts
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda app-developers app
Don't quote me but I don't think it matters what SIM you have in, you should still see the update when it rolls out to that model number.. so long as your not rooted.
