[Q] received OS update for 4.0.4 yesterday, any idea what for it is?

I was already on 4.0.4. received OS updated yesterday (02/11/2012), any idea what for this updated? it says "improved stability" though.
attached is the message and OS version details.
I also got an update yesterday, but I didn't see what is included. Didn't work to install it, though, since I am using a custom kernel.
But Samsung Norway said that Jelly Bean will be released in November.

[Q] OTA update problem

Hello guys
I have Samsung Galaxy S III with CSC of KSA, and recently updated to 4.0.4 with BB of XXLH1.
However, some reported the availability of JB 4.1.1 via PC Samsung Kies. But it still shows "No update available" whenever I check mobile "Software update". Many neighbor countries had already updated to JB a month ago using both Kies and OTA.
What do you think guys? Another bug from Samsung? Or there is something wrong?
I am still able to update using PC Kies but not OTA!!!
Maybe ota hasn't been released for your country yet.

[Q] Kies Update Issue

I have searched and cant find an answer ...
I have a completely stock , non rooted and sim free UK S3.
I got the terrible 4.3 update and suffered for a few weeks like the rest of us.
I then got the OTA MK6 25mb update which has thankfully given me back a phone I like.
However... I now have one small issue ....
If I connect my phone to Kies it says ...
Your current firmware version is not supported by kies for firmware update.
Current firmware version : PDA:MK6 / PHONE:MK6 / CSC:MK6 (BTU)
Why is this happening and what does it mean ?
Thanks

Everyone will have this at the moment the server Kies connects to doesn't currently recognise the firmware as its only an OTA update at this time
Ah ok. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
I was beginning to think something was wrong with the phone.

[Q] GALAXY S4 GT-i9505 Netwok/Signal ERROR !!

I own a SGS4 GT-i9505 which I bought from UAE. I updated the os to 4.3 via OTA . It worked well for about 4 months then it started to show up some signal errors. Actually there is no signal at all. When i searched for updates it showed latest firmwares are alredy installed. Now I got rooted my phone and it didn't solved my issue. Now when I try to update my phone via OTA it shows your device is modified. But when I connect with kies 3 there is an official update available.
Now my question is
1. Can I update that available official update through kies to my rooted phone ?
2. How can I get rid of this no network error ?
3. Is it possible to downgrade Galaxy S4 GT-i9505 from4.3 to stock 4.2.2 ? If so is there is any problem with knox app in 4.3 ?
Please help :crying::crying:
screen shots are attached.
Thanx.

[Q] Firmware Upgrade 4.3

Hi guys, hope all of you are fine doing well. I am using Galaxy S III International Version I-9300 came from UK upgraded to Android 4.3. Today when I connected my phone to KIES, following message appeared
Firmware Upgrade available for your phone:
Current firmware version : PDA:MK6 / PHONE:MK1 / CSC:MK4 (VOD)
Latest firmware version : PDA:NA5 / PHONE:NB1 / CSC:NB1 (VOD)
I've searched on internet, but the latest firmware version as per KIES is also 4.3. do I need to perform this Upgrade or not ? ? ?
NA5 is just a newer build firmware of android 4.3 than MK6... so if you just want your phone updated only then go ahead with it... if you are happy if the current version then I would say stay with it..
But if you feel some lag in your current build then just go ahead with it.. it may improve your user experience a bit as newer build is considered to be with few fixes obviously...

Hi, newbie to the forums but I have the same issue with my wifes S3. The only difference is that the OTA says there is an upgrade, but this fails and says to use Kies.
When using Kies to upgrade it seems to go ok, the device firmware is downloaded/passed to the S3.... But when the S3 reboots and I connect it back to Kies it says the upgrade still needs to happen??
Anyone else getting this problem?
