Okay, you carrier doesn't have an update for you yet.
If you want to update, it has to be manually (Odin/mobile odin).
Go to the general section and read information posts, there's a lot of information about flashing, versions (both stock or customs), rooting and a whole lot of useful stuff.
You need to learn a bit, so you won't harm your device, hence, harm yourself
Exactly, there are enough posts and guides in the General section
But as a hint: Most firmwares flashable via Odin only contain one file which has to be put in the pda field in odin
You can choose the firmware for your country on sammobile.com..

Well firstly a little tip, do not use idiotic generic titles like "need help". Topic titles are supposed to be descriptive of topic content so that people browsing forum get an idea of content.
Second, I would HIGHLY recommend you go and do some reading because you obviously haven't. There are plenty of guides and topics that already answer your questions. Spoon feeding is not allowed.
I also recommend watching the video that you're shown when signing up..

Read the stickies, and check out Intratechs thread there is a guide in there in how to update a stock ROM, I suggest you try a stock ROM first.
It's in the original Android development thread.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Intratechs ROM
what it means?
the simplest way to update the firmware would be to plug it into the pc and connect it via samsung Kies and it should automatically tell you that there is an update available just download and install it however please backup ure data before doing anything.
Guys is there official android 4.0+ that samsung reslease and can you give me link how to install it ...Or it is still rooted ver. that some guys dev and full of bugs ...

It seems you are confused. Or are you just struggling to read english? What one do you see that is rooted?
The ones you have been directed to (stickied at the top of the General section, linked above by pier10) are the same one, (but are hosted on different download sites) and it is NOT rooted, but both pages have instructions on how to root if you want. If you don't want root, just ignore the rooting instructions.
As far as Kies, it will update only if you are still on an official stock Samsung firmware, with the correct CSC for your country. If you haven't flashed any firmwares yourself yet, this is a good bet. But you will have to wait until Samsung updates their servers for your region to say your phone is eligible for an update.

Dunno. I don't use Kies.
Hello,
I want this to be a personal question about how to update my phone to Jellybean 4.1
First of all, as u can all see in the screenshot, I don't have software update in my phone,it's a branded Orange phone.
Over Kies my phone is not connecting to it. I have done a ton of solutions, no succes.
So I came here to ask you how can I update my Samsung Galaxy S3 to Jellybean with Odin starting from my screenshot, I mean from baseband i9300bvle4 w/o damaging my phone.
Please, give me some steps like you make for newbies.
Best Regards,
Go grab the latest stock JB from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610. Then use odin to flash, follow one of the many, many guides on using odin. Once youve downloaded the FW its a 10 min job.

HI,
I have recently bought Samsung galaxy S2 from Ebay. It is original Samsung galaxy S2. Surprisingly i got a note from the seller that i cannot upgrade the OS.
The current version info :
==================
Modul No: GT-I9100
Android version : 2.3.4
Baseband version : 9100XXKG1
Kernal Version :2.6.35.7-I9100XXKG1-CL349526 [email protected]#2
Build Number : GINGERBREAD.XXKG1
I tried using Kies software to upgrade my OS. But this software does not list any new firmware for upgrade.
So i don't know how to upgrade to the latest OS.
Also if there are any problem during up-gradation will i be able to revert back to old firmware.
Sincere thanks
Hey bro! Did u try to install it via odin?

Most importantly, is your phone GT-i9300? Because S3 has various models and can not messed up the ROM
Actually, personally think the region code doesn't matter at all.
You should spent a little more time in general section, everything you need lays right over there

Be patient, it's not complicated as you thought. As matter of fact, I brought my Nexus S 18 months ago, then I immediate (like 20 minutes reading the thread and 10 minutes of preparation and operation ) unlocked bootloader and rooted it , I didn't even know "Android "before I got that phone!!!
if you mother language is not English, you can search some thread with your own language thread which should make it easier.
Just be patient reading these thread, don't be panic, this is not anything emergency, you have lots lots time doing this.

If you are in Greece this link will take you to Sammobile firmwares, make sure you do have i9300 international then download the lates version i9300XXELLA and flash it using Odin which you already have.
Make sure you understand how to flash via Odin by reading the Odin thread if you do it wrong you will just have an expensive brick
