Galaxy S2 (telenor)
Updated to pda:ki4 phone:ki1 csc:ki (ten) just the other day using kies,...and reading on xda today about new fw I figured I might as well plug the phone in and see....and now the new kies goes "The current version is not an official release. Firmware upgrade services for unofficial versions is not supported!"
Anyone got a clue as to just wtf kies is up to now!?
edit: reinstalled kies2....071_128 and this one just says "this version of the device cannot be updated"
Anyone know if these msg's are just a lousy way to say "you have the latest version"...or is it something more serious!? Phone is all official no mods or anything...just used kies to dl latest 2.3.4 ver..*sigh*
Simillar problem here, updated via OTA to 2.3.5 and Kies says unofficial firmware. WTF?
The phone is from Vodafone.

Hi - Other than using Odin, any idea how to fix my Kies issue "your device does not support software upgrading via kies"?
I've read a few tips regarding the resetting of CSC, but I don't really understand in great detail what or why. My Galaxy Ace is:
on Vodacom (South Africa). Supplied by Vodacom. I have made no firmware changes (or anything).
PDA S5830XWKPU
PHONE S5830XWKP7
CSC S5830XFVKP1
It's on 2.3.3. I'm hoping to upgrade to 2.3.4 via Kies.
I have downloaded the very latest Kies from samsung's site, and done a fresh install (on Win 7 Ultimate 32-bit). I get the message:
"your device does not support software upgrading via kies".
I received this phone from the network provider (Vodacom) and have not changed anything.
Please advise?
Thanks
Fin
does that mean you have locked phone ??
if yes then you might need to wait for your provider to approve update and send it to you
it is not locked
I m also faceing same problem when conect to kies
I have latest version of kies
Plz sm1 help us
Operator of my phone do not let me upgrade Ace to 2.3. My friend have no-brand Ace and he get official update to 2.3. So i have used Odin and after 2 mins i got official 2.3.4 After that i couldn't use Kies but i don't care. I don't like this software... I manage my Ace via Google. Much easier and faster
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 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.
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?
I recently discovered that my friends' S2 still runs on 2.3.4 and told him to upgrade his firmware, but Kies (2.6) doesn't recognize the device and the OTA updates only brought him up one version (2.3.5 now...). Is there an easy way to upgrade the phone to 4.x in one in a single blow?

Hi,
If your friend's S2 is GT-I9100, then you can easily update his phone to the latest official firmware from Samsung.
Head on to this link, which covers everything from installing drivers to flashing the firmware: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/samsung-galaxys2-i9100-unroot-official-jellybean-firmware-460777
All the best,
