Is your Galaxy S 2 on a Custom ROM or such?
If so this is your issue, most phones cannot update if on Custom ROM.
You might have yo go back to Stock ROM

hey, did just that when I still had the leaked samsung firmware on, but now I want to ENABLE software update again - any clues?! thanks!
(my galaxy says software update is running under applications-->running, but there's nothing happening when i click on software update under about...?)

Bugs
@wesg79, I noticed you are running on the Bell network. So may I ask, are you running the I-9100M? I'm just curious, because I am and updated my device using the Swedish version of ICS (build:LPQ) and there do seem to be a few bugs. Just wondering if you have experienced them for yourself? I seem to be dropping down to 3G every once in a while and have never had less than HSPA+ with the stock rom. My "Beautiful Widgets" clock widget also seems to not correctly display the time every once in a while, but perhaps they haven't updated for use on ICS yet.
I was having issues with the "processing failed" for the software update, but thanks to this thread it has been resolved.
I'm also curious if someone else can answer the following for me -- once the official Bell version is released for the I-9100M, is it possible to "update" to it using Odin, or would that not only wipe everything on my device. I believe I would also need to re-root my phone, right?
Sorry for all the questions! Thanks in advance.

I believe I would have to turn wi-fi off to initiate OTA updates on my DX. For kicks I would also toggle the other devices off and on prior to initializing the update. Bluetooth, gps.
I was running EB01 so I odin'd back to DI01 and DL09 but I got "server unavailable" messages when I would check for OTA updates. I've scoured the internet far and wide for a solution but I've had no luck. Can someone please chime in? I don't get why I would have this issue having odin'd back to stock and it is frustrating.
Im on that same boat I haven't found a solution, I read an old thread on a similar problem but when update 1 was releases that said that certain models can't get that update. .. I think MAYBE because we own these models?

I'm not sure what you mean by certain models. I can tell you for sure that when I was running the stock eclair build on my Fascinate a few months ago I was able to check for and install OTA updates. I've literally tried almost everything and still get the SERVER UNAVAILABLE message and can't find any help on this on any forums. If you find a solution please do post back here and I will do the same. For now I just ODIN'd the ED01 zip here.
No one else gets a SERVER UNAVAILABLE when checking for OTA updates? I really suspect even though I ODIN'd the stock tarballs something must not be stock for the OTA updates to fail. Anyone, please??
I guess we need to wait for an Odin 2.2 file

You can Odin 2.1 and then flash the ED01 update.zip. That's what I ended up doing since no one responds to these server unavailable issues.
Take a look at this thread

It is not your exact problem but it does deal with a server problem.
If you can do either option it is worth a try.

[Stock ROM] (H3G) Three UK 2.3.6 for ODIN

Thanks to 'cascader' I have used a program to extract the Stock ROM for our Three UK Galaxy Aces. Thanks again 'cascader'!
The zip file contains:
Cooper_v1.0.ops - Partition table etc. for the Ace ONLY
SS5570_Odin_Multi_Downloader_v4.38.exe - Odin 4.38 - To flash the firmware
S5830XWKT5_S5830H3GKT3_S5830NEKT2_HOME.tar.md5 - The firmware
SS_DL.dll - This file is used ONLY by Kies so is un-needed
This is a ONEPACKAGE file meaning you only need the cooper.ops file and the firmware to flash. If you do not know what you are doing - http://lmgtfy.com/?q=galaxy+ace+odin+onepackage+flash or http://yagyagaire.blogspot.com/2012/01/how-to-flash-official-stock-firmwares.html

I accept no responsibility for bricked phones. Thanks!
Jamie.
will i need to convert filesystem back from ext 4 or will flashing do this?
my phone was on O2 but after failed attempts at finding the firmware for it, i just stuck an unbranded stock from asia on there...works wonders
It has to be flashed by ODIN @PJ147 Use the included files for ODIN and the instructions from either link
@King Kaze - I was using UK XEU but it was only 2.3.3, This is 2.3.6 and includes Three's network tweaks which makes my 2G roaming a bit better, but completely useless still. I have to wait 2 minutes for 0.facebook.com to load on Opera! If I use Opera on any other phone on 2G m.facebook.com loads quickly. I'm thinking it's Three restricting how fast things can download/tx-rx on 2G, Their websites load alright in seconds... I asked them about this and they denied that they restrict speeds on 2G which makes me laugh.
0.facebook should load faster than all the other facebook sites because it barely has anything
Yeah, It should but Three restrict my 2G speed so it loads really slowly :L

It should be /data/bootanimation.zip or something
Is this stock rom rooted? And if so, how do you go about unrooting it?
is better than DDKQ8?
@Swiftkilla - I don't know sorry, I regrettably got rid of the phone after I posted this so I didn't check
@kevo02 I don't recommend it for you. I see you're from Costa Rica and on 'ICE' - This rom is made by Three UK so I only recommend it on Three's phones. Sorry!
Note: I won't be checking this thread much, I don't really come on XDA and I sold my Galaxy Ace back in February I will still help though if you need anything
HI I tried doing everything like you said. It wont register on 3 network and when u dial it says mobile network unavailable, any advice would be good

I have the latest Sammy USB drivers at hand and I'll try it again once installed, but in the mean time, have anybody else faced a similar issue?

[Q] New Evo view won't update to Honeycomb

I recently purchased a new HTC Evo View 4G from an internet retailer. Everything works pretty well, including CDMA 3G Internet from Ukrainian provider Intertelecom, except that I cannot update firmware to Honeycomb.
When I try an option from menu "Firmware Update", I receive the following message "The firmware update could not be completed. Please try again later. If the problem persists, you may need to contact Customer Service. Error code: 1233.
I suppose, that my device was rooted, but I don't know, how to check it and whether there are other ways to update firmware.
Can somebody help my?
if you want to use the gps at all, don't update.
Same thing happened to me. I looked in the "Settings" and found out my Flyer had been rooted and a custom rom installed. The vendor apparently didn't know. I requested and received a new Flyer. Installed fine on the new Flyer.
Most likely my firmware is original. There are plenty of HTC apps, which successfully update, also sprint apps and so on. I can update just everything on this tablet, but firmware.
Apps and such don't matter, it could just be a custom/stock ROM. Do you have Superuser in your App Drawer? What does your Settings->About page say?
Haha . If you want honeycomb you don't click firmware update you click HTC software update !
I get the same message on completely stock. I think firmware update has a tie in with sprint services. I use it as wifi only.

I agree, all my apps were stock, but "settings" told the story. I was rooted and a custom rom was installed. This was a Bestbuy Flyer, so someone returned it and
vendor sold as new.

It should have the option in Settings/About device/Software update, but should use Kies anyway, and latest UK version is 4.0.4

As previously suggested, try other firmware. Forget Kies, its crap and only check for updates for your specific firmware, not elsewhere.
Try the link above i posted or http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9300here for newer releases.
Just follow the guide by Intratech (he also has some official firmware) for flashing with Odin. Could not be simpler. Just backup anything to PC before hand, and then follow instructions exactly.

really appreciate your help with this but just have a couple more questions
i assume that with odin i can flash any of the firmwares and it dosent matter that my phone is locked to orange (well i believe it is). The phone itself has no orange branding or apps installed.
The other thing i am not sure about is which firmware i should use for a uk handset on orange. If i use a generic firmware will that cause problems with the radio's etc?
The other thing is how do i know what the latest is...i mean i might already have it on my device....it says i have 4.04 on it but are there various versions of this?
Sorry if it seems im being lazy about this but just want to be sure i am using the right one.

I believe so, should be same as SGS2. Phone lock should be "sim" lock not locked bootloader.
You can flash the modem or kernel as individual packages if need be.
In phone dialer, *#1234#
Ie. Firmware ending in LE7 is older than LE8
Don't forget to backup anything important to PC first. Best to factory reset first in recovery and then immediately boot into download mode to flash. Follow Intratech guide exactly and shouldn't be a problem.
Just make sure you flash any full package as .tar.md5 file. Zip won't work with Odin.
For thanks if you feel like it

[Q] I might have killed my new S3 by flashing CM10

I just got a new phone, my mom bought it for me with the money we had saved and she hasn't even paid it whole yet.
I rooted it fine, but then I tried flashing CM10 on it, everything went smoothly but then it got stuck on the CM startup/splash screen or whatever it's called... when I turn it off it automatically reboots and the same thing happens.
it was locked to a carrier, that was probably what screwed it up... I don't know what to do...
if you need any info, please ask. I might know it.
please help :/

did u ever get the JellyBean update to work? I have the tmo S3 and was able to update via Samsungs kies software. However, in sep I had an ATT Galaxy Note and an international factory unlocked Note around for a bit, and the ATT version was supported in Samsung Kies for the ICS upgrade, but the international was not. I believe ICS had to be flashed in the end. I just thought I'd let u know what happened for me, hope it helps. Good luck
