2.3.6 unavailable - unlocked international phone - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have an unlocked international version of the Galaxy S2 / i9100.
I received a message telling me to check for OTA updates. However, when I check it it tells me there are no updates available.
Unlocked phones are supposed to get the updates first, so I wonder why I'm not getting the 2.3.6 update.
This is the information it shows (it isn't rooted or anything):
Model: GT_I9100
Android Version: 2.3.4
Base band version: I9100XXKI1
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKI4-CL575468 [email protected] #2
Compilation number: GINGERBREAD.XWKI4
Thanks in advance for your help.

Their is no update for your phones product code it could not be simpler than that .
Wait for an update or join XDA developers forum and flash a stock rom .

I don't think we will see 2.3.5 or 2.3.6. We'll get the ICS update first though.

[Q] Flashing official samsung firmware on GT-i9100P

Hi,so I've got my first android phone, an UK Samsung galaxy S2 GT-i9100p with NFC, and I want to get rid of all of the orange logos and apps. Can I flash an official GT-i9100 firmware on my GT-I9100P and then enable Signal boost and NFC? If so, can I get a guide on how to do it as I am scared to brick my phone.
here are my phone details:
model number: GT-I9100P
Android version: 2.3.4
baseband version: I9100PBVKI2

Thank you. One more question: What firmware should i choose as there are hundreds of them?
I don't really have one to recommend, but generally the latest (non-unstable ICS) would be the most wise choice, which is probably the "frankenstein" XWLA4.
So generally i just download the Frankestein XWLA4 firmware and flash it via Odin? Sorry for asking noobish questions.
Yes thats what will work .

Thank you guys so much! I finally got rid of all that orange crap!

What do you mean by nearest version?
And you can very well upgrade to any version you like 4.0 or even 4.1 and also revert back if you are not happy...
The process is same for any version you want to upgrade to...

Hi, have followed your advise, have another question.
Based from my phone info below, can i upgrade it to ICS PDA: I9100DXLP7 and CSC: I9100OLBLP7 from another country. I think XW is not from our region that's why i can't upgrade it via KIES. Now, if i want to upgrade it, i'll use PDA: I9100DXLP7 and CSC: I9100OLBLP7 which is from our region. Can you advise me on this? Thanks in advance...

Android version: 4.0.3
Baseband version: I9100UHLPE
Build number: IML74K.UHLPE

I dont know which region is my room, so I dont know which version of 4.0.4 is better for me.
If I change my region, I will able to receive OTA updates? or via KIES?
Thanks in advance.

Firstly its "Rom" not "Room".
Second, there are plenty of topics on stock roms and how to flash the. Use search or browse button.

Honestly I don't want to upgrade to Jellybean if it's not necessary. I just need to know how to install CyanogenMod and which version I need for my phone. Cheers

First you need to flash a CM kernel(it will be given in the CyanogenMod Roms thread) then through CWM flash CM 10(for 4.1.2) or CM 10.1(for 4.2.2).
Edit :
DELETED links since I didn't notice your model number before , and I can't find any official cm versions for SCH-R760. Try searching harder for ported versions.

And don't bump posts after 8 hrs (after 24 hrs is acceptable). You make a thread or a post & wait patiently for an answer.
And you need to understand that because you have a relatively obscure phone few people who hang around I9100 Q&A have, it's only natural that you're going to wait a lot longer for that help for the most part unless it's something generic/that applies to most Samsung phones.
