After reading through the topic, I'm still a bit unclear as to the camera firmware issues relating to the latest 4.1.2 updates. Does this newer firmware upgrade the camera itself (even when flashed via Mobile Odin) or is there a separate process?
I had thought that the earlier leaked firmware was the one that didn't properly upgrade the camera, but I'm still unclear.
Can anyone provide some clarification?
For me, *#34971539# did nothing.

Hi, i'm relatively new to this whole firmware thing and found it hard to work out what the newest and best stock firmware available is through odin and what the newest android firmware available is? I'm not interested in rooting my phone. Also i don't really want to wipe the memory off my phone while flashing.
If someone could post links to these, and what order i should do things in, that would be great. thanks.
I am not interested to Leaked/Beta/Unofficial firmwares, but if you ask about Stock firmware, then KF3 is the latest, and for some country like China, Poland, KG5/6 is available officially, which is GB 2.3.4. But worldwide 2.3.4 is still coming soon. And if you are interested in flashing Leaked firmwares via Odin, then you could search in www.samfirmware.com OR under Dev section here in Intratech's thread.
Regards.
at the moment the leaked firmwares from samfirmware changing every week. The last one is KG6 and it seems to roll out from Samsung over kies in the next time. The greatest thing that bothers me is the missing changelogs. So you never have a comparsion about the different firmwares.
Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 on the three network. If I flash the H3G 2.3.3 firmware to the device using Odin will the OTAs still work? If not is there a way to flash the standard firmware back and have the updates working as normal?
Thanks
If you flash stock firmware for your region, you should be able to get updates OTA again. In saying that, I've seen more than a few cases where this hasn't been the case (Why ? No idea. Never happened to me/not important to me as I don't use stock firmware so I've never delved into the why).
So you can flash stock firmware, see if you can get OTA updates.
If not, might as well take the easy course & flash your stock firmware updates via Odin (like many people) rather than spend potentially who knows how much time trying to find out why OTA won't work in spite of you going back to stock
It works for kies and OTA
I downloaded the original 2.3.3 and flashed it to my Samsung Galaxy S2 and the OTA updates worked up to firmware 2.3.5 and then I plugged into kies and it updated to 4.0.3. I used this site http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9100&r=-1#modelsa
Thanks for the help guys.
Anyone else facing the same problem on this version? Any solutions ? Just removed the orange imm76d.i9300bvblg2 rom and installed the unbranded latest uk XXBLG8 rom which is now giving this error on kies. Used to work fine on the orange rom. Mobile is unrooted and stock rom is flashed.
I think that the leaks can't be upgraded by kies. you should install the latest JB rom using odin
I know the leaks can't be upgraded. I meant the official updates.
sorry, i thought it was LI8 (the last leak before poland official JB)
to upgrade, you would need to have the poland CSC, it can be changed *#272*your_IMEI#
then you have to select the poland CSC:XEO
first BACKUP in the external SD because doing this you would lose everything in the internal SD (including tithanium backups)
sorry for my english
Please read my post. Im not looking to go to JB as there is no UK version and its not fully stable. I have the latest XXBLG8 uk version and was looking at the official updates for this version. Thanks
you can not get official update because your product code does not maches your rom.
You have to stick with ODIN or Use orignal orange rom.

It was due to the csc being KOR. Once i changed this to BTU the problem was resolved. Even though the rom was a BTU rom in the first place. Thanks for your help anyway.
Okay I'm wanting to unroot my S3 since I never actually use any root features and I'd much prefer to receive OTA updates when they're finally pushed than have to Odin flash the latest version each time it's released. My problem is I can't for the life of me figure out what the latest firmware is. My phone is on 4.1.2 XXELLA which I thought was the latest since my cousins unrooted phone is also on that but now I've read that XXELLB and XXELLC are later versions. Can someone just tell me what the latest version is?

Thanks for that. Just plugged it into Kies and it shows the same software version as being available. It's willing to upgrade my phone despite it being modified. Is this recommended or should I avoid doing it?
Its fine to do it.
I've seen mention on some threads that it is possible to downgrade the firmware. I've had odd issues since upgrading to NG3 through Odin. Has anyone else downgraded/had odd issues with NG3?
You can downgrade to an earlier 4.4.2 version firmware on your S5. Use Odin to write the full firmware image to your phone.
Possibly Samsung might bar this in the future by setting another qfuse or bootloader changes. But for now it works fine. There are lots of existing threads that elaborate at length on this if you read or search the forum.
