thanks I think I have the correct one, will try over the wkend..
Do you know if the baseband and ALL of the numbers need to be exactly the same as it was when I got it? i.e if it turns out to be wrong will that screw up my claim?

[Q] Do I have the latest U.K Firmware?

Galaxy S II bought in CPW in London
when I press *#1234#:
PDA: I9100XWKF3
PHONE: I9100XXKE7
CSC: I9100CPWKD1
Build Info: Thu Jun 9 18:16:44 KST 2011
Also I want to revert the CSC to XEU as that is the default U.K Samsung Android CSC but
When I do the *#272*IMEI#
I only get CPW CSC Code as an option. I want to use Kies to firmware update the latest U.K XEU Firmwares but I can't change CSC since I only have CPW.
XDA ...have any Ideas?
Greatly appreciated

No one?? @[email protected]
i think you have a Carphone warehouse branded handset...thats why your CSC is not XEU which as you mentioned is for unbranded UK handsets.
Maybe please change your query/subject to how to de-brand the handset...and someone knowledgeable here might help

Ok guys.
Let me get this straight to all those confused.
CPW sell Unbranded phones even with contract. Their phones can be used with anyother network.
But still I believe CPW do still have their own firmware on it.
Yes it is debranded Galaxy S II. But still, it isn't XEU (STOCK UK FIRMWARE) it is CPW (Carphone Warehouse FIRMWARE)
That is why I was asking what the latest XEU Firmware out "Officially" on kies is.
Because the latest CPW Firmware is = KF3

Completed the steps through to number 8.
Finally I rooted the phone * HERE * following the instructions and using the KE7 kernel.

Help needed, strange one!

Hi guys
I've been looking to update my galaxy s2 to ICS for a while now but it doesn't seem to respond to ANYTHING i've read on forums so far.
It was broken (screen) so has been away for repair.
Now if i try to update OTA it seems fine until reboot then stops at 14% and comes up failed. Kies also says my device cannot be updated using kies?
I'm still on gingerbread 2.3.3!
Kies also wont backup my data telling me there's not enough free space on the PC when there is plenty.
I have read ALOT on this but am now completely out of ideas, any help what to do from here would be fantastic!
Here's some info from about phone phone:
Baseband: I1900XXKE4
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I1900XWKE1-CL181974
[email protected] #2
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.XWKE1
Here's info from *#1234#
PDA: I1900XWKE1
PHONE: I1900XXKE4
CSC: I1900XEUKD1
Any help would be really appreaciated as it seems from searching no-one else actually has the same info on their phone as me which i find strange.
contacts are already backuped in your google account or you can try this software http://www.moborobo.com/
For Firmware Go To samfirmware.com Download the firmware from there and flash with odin search the forum how to flash with odin..

Thanks very much nitinvaid, i'll try that.
I already have odin just wasn't sure which fw to flash to it, definitely dont want to brick it as it's still under warranty.
I'm not wanting spoonfed or anything but should it be obvious which firmware i should be using? is it official samsung fw?
Thanks again

Pretty simple actually! Just got to sammobile.com, make an id and log in. In the "Firmwares" section, you will be able to download your country's/carrier's latest official firmware. Download the file, unzip and flash via Odin.
And do not worry about the warranty, the firmwares on Sammobile are official firmware. Flashing them will not void your warranty, unless you root..!
Best of luck...!
Sorry but one more question, might sound easy to you guys but all these letters and numbers mean nothing to me
Can i go straight to this fw from 2.3.3 using odin?

Yes, you can. Just get a "How to update to ICS via odin" tutorial on the internet (it's everywhere) and follow it properly, there's no mistake
Don't forget to close Kies and the KiesTrayAgent (with task manager) before flashing with odin.

If you are going to flash the XWLPT firmware be careful as it contains the dreaded "hard brick bug" I would suggest flashing a custom Kernel straight away ie Siyah Kernel. As this will remove the bug

Install a custom Rom and Kernel. You will not go back to stock!! Root your phone first. Backup your stock rom with CWM in case something happens. I would do this before using any of the solutions that previous comments have given you. Some times even if you are following the right instructions you will get a soft brick. Its best to have everything backed up before attempting any updates of Roms. There is so many tutorials out there to do this. This would be the easiest solution and also the best solution to your problem. Everybody too have seemed to have moved to Jelly Bean 4.1 not ICS 4.0.3/4.0.4. My opinion i prefer Jelly Bean than ICS. Look into rooting, installing custom Roms and Kernels.

[Q] Need some help Unbranded UK S3

Hi all wondering if anyone can help, by telling me wich version of 4.1.2 I can use to reflash my phone.
I am currently running 4.1.1 on an unbranded S3 that I bought from Amazon.
Details are as follows:
AP: I9300XXDLJ4
CP: I9300XXDLID
CSC: Unknown
Would I use the BTU version that is available on Sammobile?
I know how to flash using Odin, but am unsure as to which file I need with my phone being Unbranded. I prefer using Odin so I can factory reset first and start clean with an update.
Thanks in advance

[Q] How do I choose stock firmware for my region?

Hello everyone,
My phone details are as follows:
I9100XWLPT

Region: Europe
Country United Kingdom / Ireland
Carrier: Unbranded
Build Date: 27 July 2012
Modem: XXLQ6
CSC: XEULPA
And this is supported by networks in my region (Pakistan). But unfortunately this has the emmc brick bug as well. If I flash the following firmware using Odin then what kinda issues I will have to face? Will my network support it? And do I need to make a backup of efs folder before flashing? How can I choose the right firmware? PLEASE GUIDE I HAVE NO IDEA.
I9100XXLPQ
Base Firmware: I9100XXLPQ (4.0.3)
Region Poland (XEO)
Build Date: 9th March 2012
Modem: XXLPQ
CSC: OXALPQ

You need to do some searching by yourself, that is what the search function is for. EPS Pro for backing up EFS folder: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308546 Make a backup before flashing Siyah Kernel, and make sure you have root in order for backup to work.
You can just flash Siyah Kernel v4.1.5 via Odin to prevent brickbug in ICS v4.0.4. Look at my rooting guide in my sig, just change the CF-Root file with Siyah Kernel. Refer here: www.gokhanmoral.com/public/files/siyahkernel/v4/Siyah-s2-v4.1.5.tar
In case you are unsure what brickbug is, the stock 4.0.4 kernel has MMC_CAP_ERASE enabled which bricks your phone when a wipe data command is used in stock recovery. Siyah kernel deals with this by disabling MMC_CAP_ERASE. This command needs to be enabled for the brick to occur, so don't worry about having to change your ROM.
But if I plan to unroot my phone latter on then I will have to get it back on stock and If I flash the same stock 4.0.4 then I wont be able to wipe data thats why I was asking about LPQ. Will it work for me?

Well if you wished to unroot it and return it to stock 4.0.4 again, you would just be where you are now. Yes, you can flash 4.0.3 if you want, although I struggle to understand why you would return it to stock at a later date anyway.
If your network struggles to pick up a good signal on it, there are many modems out there that you can flash to make your network signal stronger. Refer here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131950
