[Q] I9100G New Stock / Custom Rom needed - Root - no Kies update possible - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
i get the new "bad" i9100G -->G<-- i tryed to root with the wrong kernel and bricked it, but i could fix it some hours later with this rom:
I9100GXXKL5 2011 December I9100GXEFKL3 France (La poste mobile) from sammobile
So i got differnt problems:
-im from Germany and with this french stock rom, my Kies dont accept updates für my mobile, my original stock rom ends with XXLA1 but i cant find this one anywhere...
-i still got an unrooted sucking s2G
So PLZPLZPLZ help me out with a suiting stock rom, so that i could update with Kies to newest version and restart rooting
or give me an other tipp how i can get an working minimal customized rooted i9100G with the actual french version.
thanks

I have added yours on Check Fus (http://fus.nanzen.se/) earlier today, so it will be available soon with Check Fus Downloader and on sammobile.
The French stock rom is the latest one available and should be close to the German one, so I guess it's normal if Kies don't show any updates.
EDIT: Actually someone uploaded it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1505270

if tryed much out the whole day with different results, but noone was accaptable.
my actual stand is:
-flashed india rom I9100GXWKJ2
-rooted this rom with DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su
-thought that this rom suxx and flashed back to french
result: french rom with SU but nothing else ( no CWM (( )
if anyone got an working kernel with CWM for this french ROM I9100GXXKL5 or other ideas plz PM me thanks
btw is it possible to delete this many trash system apps with ONLY SU?
and if its not possible to update SU, is it broken? perhaps it wont work with the flashed ROM

Ok final update:
I9100GXXKL5 2.3.6 france FW is now accepted via Kies, perhaps i got it to early
Flashed MyGKernelV1.1.1_CWM5 via Odin
Now everything works like i wanted for the last 3 days its rooted + SU r/w permissions etc, only CWM is missing but im done for now^^
gl if anyone else trys the same

[Q] flashed P7500XWKK4 and it is not kies updateable

I just flashed my 10.1 p7500 with the kk4 stock firmware I downloaded from the other post, thinking that when the samsung ICS comes out, I can update it using KIES. But KIES said that it wasn't updateable thru it.
Does anyone have a firmware that would be updateable thru KIES?
Hello,
I cannot answer your question, as kind of a newbie as well...
So hoping someone reads, maybe can also help me, as I have same issue.
I installed stock firmware "P7500OXAKI1_P7500XXKI1_P7500XXKI1" downloaded from SamMobile.
This to get my Singapore model become a Europe model with all languages there.
I did not root the system first, so hope that is okay.. Everything seems to work fine.
But, if I try to update on the Galaxy Tab itself, it says there is a 99Mb update available?? Is it safe to download and install this on the tablet directly? Or will it like block my tablet?
Thanks guys

firmware update
hi, first of all ask yourself if you actually want to stay with official rom - i would suggest to install one of the custom ones - im on Illusion-ICS v1.0.1 - XXLPB 4.0.3 - you can find it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1488063&page=5 - and then use a jig (i bought it from ebay for £1.50) to fool the tech support at your provider or samsung into thinking that you had never manually installed firmware so your warranty is still fine.
However, if you want to stick with official roms than check out this page - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131950.
hope it helps...

Firstly very you so much for the reply, i tried download in there but the link i cant conntect to, would u have any other link i can go to?? thank you!!!
hmmm, strange, it also doesnt open for me now. Try going to google and make the following search without the @@ - @forum.xda-developers.com/[email protected]
Make a back up ;]]
Thank you!! I will try to download later.
Just wondering how do I flash u gave me that customer rom? is via Odin??
If you want to try flashing the original ones from the link above @@ then you should use Odin. If you want to install Custom Illusion ICS then you will need CWR (clockworkrecovery).

[Q] S3: XXBLG8; Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies

Anyone else facing the same problem on this version? Any solutions ? Just removed the orange imm76d.i9300bvblg2 rom and installed the unbranded latest uk XXBLG8 rom which is now giving this error on kies. Used to work fine on the orange rom. Mobile is unrooted and stock rom is flashed.
I think that the leaks can't be upgraded by kies. you should install the latest JB rom using odin
I know the leaks can't be upgraded. I meant the official updates.
sorry, i thought it was LI8 (the last leak before poland official JB)
to upgrade, you would need to have the poland CSC, it can be changed *#272*your_IMEI#
then you have to select the poland CSC:XEO
first BACKUP in the external SD because doing this you would lose everything in the internal SD (including tithanium backups)
sorry for my english
Please read my post. Im not looking to go to JB as there is no UK version and its not fully stable. I have the latest XXBLG8 uk version and was looking at the official updates for this version. Thanks
you can not get official update because your product code does not maches your rom.
You have to stick with ODIN or Use orignal orange rom.

It was due to the csc being KOR. Once i changed this to BTU the problem was resolved. Even though the rom was a BTU rom in the first place. Thanks for your help anyway.

Trouble telling which I9300 I have and running updates

I live in China and I bought a GT-I9300 yesterday.
I noticed the phone was out of date when I got home so I started the update process, the first update went smoothly the phone rebooted and I checked if there was any other updates and there was one. The update downloaded successfully and rebooted to install and got to 31% and failed out and rebooted the phone.
At first I thought it was because the phone was partially set up to show that it wasn't a fake phone, so I did a factory reset and started the whole process over, and the same thing the update fails out at 31%.
The phone suggested I use Kies, but Kies says my phone's current firmware version is not supported via kies.
So I took to the internet to try to manually update, I spent the better part of yesterday and today trying to figure out everything about this phone but I just can't seem to get a 100% conclusion on anything so I don't want to try flashing anything and possibly messing up my phone. There just seems to be 50 different models that all have different roms and I don't want to flash the wrong one.
Info from Kies: Current firmware version: PDA:LF1 / PHONE: LEF / CSC: LF1 (XXX)
From my phone:
Model Number: GT-I9300
Android Version: 4.0.4
Baseband Version: I9300XXLEF
Build Number: IMM76D.I9300ZSALF1
Part of the problem was the guy was selling both the Western Europe model and the Hong Kong model, I was told I was getting the Hong Kong but he may have given me the Western Europe model by mistake.
From what I have read XX means means Western Europe model but another website said ZS was Hong Kong? I don't know if I go off the Baseband version or the build number.
Then I thought I will just root the device, slap CMW on it do a backup and then slap CM10.1 on it and call it a day. But following this rooting guide I need to know which version of the phone I have first.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671969
Also CM10.1 only has 1 I9300 (International) build is that a universal I9300 ROM that is safe to use on my phone?
Long post but the help is appreciated!
So I think I figured out why this isn't updating, and I think it might be rooted as I see the SuperSU app installed. I don't really care if my device is rooted or not. SuperSU has a "Clean up feature" but it isn't uninstalling and removing root.

I'd suggest you return the phone to the guy and ask for a completely clean no root version of the phone. But if that's too much of a hassle right now you can just flash stock firmware using Odin.

Right I would just flash to stock with Odin, but that was part of my question. Which stock rom do I use? Or does it even matter and any ROM will work, I think I have the Hong Kong model but I am not completely sure and I don't want to risk bricking the phone with the wrong ROM.
Your phone does seem to be an International version which means any ROM except the China ROMs will work.
The reason Kies will not update the phone is because the CSC is XXX which is pretty strange but seeing how the phone came rooted someone has been playing.
Do you want to use the phone in HK or CN? and do you need Chinese input?

I use it in China, I rarely to HK. I don't need the Chinese language on the phone although it would be nice as I am trying to learn Chinese, but I could live without it.
Thanks for your help! Much appreciated.
I a going to flash this ROM today and see what happens!
United Kingdom 2012 December 4.1.2 I9300XXELL4 I9300OXAELL4
I'm in a similar situation,
Baseband: I9300XXLFB
Build Number: IMM76D.I9300XXBLFB
Let us know how you go with the update. Thanks

The ROM you are going to flash should be ok, if you ever need Chinese input then flash any ZS or you can just install Google pinyin IME.
BTW If flashing the ROM you was going to, does work ok, then your better off having the International version than the Chinese version anyway, since you are not stuck to waiting for Chinese ROMs or installing hybrid ROMs.
Yeah I am having trouble finding a download that will work here in China and my VPN connection is down so it will be sometime before I can even download this ROM. samfiles or samfirmware can't remember the website, is blocked in China, hotfile.com is blocked which seem to be about the only 2 websites that host all the firmware downloads.
EDIT: Speak of the devil, my VPN service just released an update for their connection app, I am downloading the ROM now. Should be able to report back in around an hour and let you all know.
EDIT: Spoke to soon, VPN issues again.
would someone be willing to download I9300XXELL4_I9300OXAELL4_BTU.zip for me and throw it up on a dropbox account or some other website besides hotfile.com I am having trouble downloading this file from China.
www.sammobile.com
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yay, I was able to get my VPN connection to stay on long enough to download the firmware and I was able to successfully apply 4.1.2 Jelly Bean to my phone!
Thanks for all your help!
Kies now reads: PDA:LL4 / Phone: LL4 / CSC: LL4
