cause it's a locked topic , and i need help !!

Try searching a little bit more/harder next time, there is information about this bug in the forum. It's a minor bug, it's just a display issue, relax your serial number is not gone. It was fixed on the latest build LQ3 I reckon.

thank you very much for ur help , but what about the update from device ?? and from kies it says " ur device firmware isn't supported " or something like that !!

Did you use Odin or Kies to update? You could just use Odin to flash a newer version if you don't care about increasing your binary counter.

This is firmware versions and you could normally expect that the newest (highest number) always is the one to bet your money on ^^
So XWKE7 is the latest firmware upgrade?
How come kies shows I'm up to date with firmware XWKE2?

There is nothing wrong with your new baby...
What you experience now can be compared to the feeling you could have if you suddenly thought there was something wrong with your new chick and everybody else had an upgraded and better one..
Relax and chill down.. Your new girl is just fine ^^
What you could do is to ask yourself if you want to tickle her under the “hood” or wait for the official fix every new girl will get later anyway..
If you would like to be hero or not is up to you…

The answers to your questions takes about 10 seconds if you use the "search" function, something that I politely recommend to you as a new poster - it will make everything easier for you. Why not start now?

These ARE official updates.
This all depends on your carrier. If you are on O2, for example, you will not yet see KE7 in KIES as it hasn't cleared with O2 yet (probably).
What you can do, and the instructions are in the 'Development' section of the forum, is remove the O2 branding from your phone. Your phone is then just 'generic' i.e. it hasn't been modified by O2. This means you get the updates as soon as Samsung release them!

Update path one official via Kies requires the phone provider to update the firmware from Samsung and upload to Kies server . Kies update is to latest version phone provider has uploaded .
Path two are Samsung stock roms that we flash ourselves via Odin .
As this may debrand your phone it may and i repeat may effect the warranty from the seller but not Samsungs warranty .Two the upgrade path via Kies may be closed and updates are now stock roms via Odin .

thank you for the answer. I bought my phone from Amazon . uk. , unlocked.. how could i know who is the phone provider???

Its probably generic then you try Kies for an update .No update on very old firmware i would try Samsung Service centre .

Pros and Cons of Latest Indian firmware DDKQ5

Hi Folks,
We have got a latest firmware DDKQ5 via Kies.
Lets make use of this thread to discuss about the additional features, Pros/Cons of this version.
I made a call to the samsung customer care on their toll free number this evening.
I was inquiring when the GB update would be released in India!
The call went to a senior authority as the initial guy who spoke to me was not aware of what i was speaking about.
Then i was told that they are not sure when the official release would be done.
I kept on asking that for other regions its there, why not India, then that guy told me, they have not released it via KIES yet, but if i want a GB update i can go to the service center and upgrade.
YES! THEY SAID WALK IN TO THE SERVICE CENTER AND GET IT FLASHED WITH GB
Then i called the nearest service center asking for updates, they said that still they did not get it from Samsung, they will get it next week (September 1st week).
Lets hope for the best.
Can u guys check with the nearest service center and reply??

[Q] Firmware upgrade encountered an issue

Hey Guys!!
i am well aware that many of you have posted and replied to threads regarding subject above and also have seen/read many and also tried my level best to resolve my issue but still i am unable to restart or Recover or update my cell phone. Admins please help me as i am new here and hoping some humble and kind replies from senior as well as junior members. please dont shout on me as i am very much depressed what i have done to my Samsung Galaxy S-II already.
My Android was running 2.3.6 version and i tried to update it to jelly bean by using Odin and Android 4.1.2 XXLSR Jelly Bean firmware for Galaxy S2 I9100G ( Dont know whether my cell has letter 'G' in the end) and all was going well but in the last Odin said its Failed. for ur kind information i followed the procedure to update my 2.3.6 to Jelly bean using he guidlines given in attached image below.
Now my SII is stuck and keep showing this message only that Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again..
I am new and dont about kies and how to use it and whether it will work in my country (i.e. Pakistan).
Also i am unaware how to reflash, Boot etc (terms that i have seen in other similar threads).
I know i am asking for much but feels that this forum has some extraordinary developers too. Thanks in advance. Please reply if any1 has some solution.
usually it happens when flashing already in progess and already flashed some of the files to phone but fails on other files.
try open ur phone backcover and remove the battery.. look for the model number there(u will see it at the back of the phone when u're already remover the battery)
after that download the right firmware for your phone axcording to the model number and flash it again.. see if that fix your problem..

on back its shows Model as "Model : GT-I9100"
I tried searching firmware for above and following page (snapshot atached) has some latest firmwares to download for my GT-I9100 but i am not sure about what region firmware i should download. Whether i should go for XFM or any other region. I live in Pakistan please advise whether Region also is an issue.
firmware region is not an issue.. basically it was almost same as other firmware, only with diffrnt modem configuration..

Further u said in earlier reply that "download the right firmware for your phone axcording to the model number and flash it again"
Please tell wha is flashing. If i am not wrong, what i did with my cell in first instance using ODIN that caused me this problem is called "flashing"?
Sorry i am new in android world and unfamiliar with these terms.
