No update available? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
I'm a new owner of a Samsung Galaxy S3 and I need your help.
If I connect my phone to Kies then the folowing text is displayed:
PDA: LF5 / PHONE: LF5 / MODEM: LF2 (VDH).
Then if I go to check the last software for the VDH models, on samsung firmware site, a new version (4.1.1) apears.
My question is why this update does not apear on my phone or on Kies?
I curently have the 4.0.4 firmware on my phone.
Thank you.

Reason
The phone you have has not been updated .
Check with your phone provider or use CHECKFUS to download any firmware and update .
Or download from this Samsung site you claim has your firmware .

CSC : I9100OXXKE2
Build Info: Friday May 6 07:48:55 KST 2011
When i connect to Kies, its says that this is the latest firware. Saw in may threads that KE7 is the latest.
Please help me install without using Odin.
KE 7 has not been rolled out by all providers yet .
Product code defines update ..
You can wait or use Odin .

No...data and settings will not be erased....enjoy...
Thanks guys.. it worked.. Only one problem i find now..
KIES is not detecting the phone..
Is it because i installed the UK firmware in India ??
EDIT: It detects the phone.. But shows,
"This version of the device cannot be updated"
Product code no longer matches firmware on Kies server or their is as of yet no update .

Flash one more time to get your csc replaced with ke7 version.
Where do i get the CSC file from ??
Any link please??

[Q] CSC issue after ROM upgrade

Hi,
I'm new to Android and Galaxy S2. My phone was purchased in Spain from Vodafone.
I have just upgraded my ROM as per Intratech's guide (thanks by the way for the nice gude). The upgrade went good but after upgrae Kies shows the old CSC and says it can't update. Is this expected? I thought the CSC was supposed to change to the generic one.
I used ROM XWKE7 from the guide. After upgrade I get the following:
Doing *#1234#, I get:
PDA: I9100XWKE7
PHONE: I9100XXKE4
CSC: I9100XEUKD1
Doing *#272*<your IMEI>#, I get
ATL
In Kies it shows:
PDA: KE7 / PHONE: KE4 / CSC:KD1(ATL)
- Can someone please clarify?
- I'd also like to know if after this I still have to do something else to unlock the phone to use with a different provider.
- I was hoping to leave the phone as unbranded so future updates will be picked up through Kies.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Depends upon what CSC flashed their is no generic CSC .

Debranding is not unlocking .

Kies updates branded phones .

[Q] Can't get ICS

I have a stock rooted galaxy SII GT-I9100. I live in Italy and samsung has pushed the ICS update to all of Europe but every time I ask the phone for the update it says that none are available. Kies also tells me I have the most current version. Anyone know what's going on here? Here's the info on my phone.
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100CEKI12-CL586309 [email protected] #2
Build: GINGERBREAD.UHKI2
ICS update
Try here there's a Italy update
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
One the ICS update is not fully rolled out .
Two you can try CHECKFUS and see if the firmware for your phone is on the KIES server download it and flash via ODIN .
Or join XDA Developers forum and flash a stock Samsung ICS .

dail *#1234#
check what is your CSC
for exampe, your CSC is : I9100OXXLP7 the bold text is your CSC,(OXX)
if your CSC is not one of these CSCs for which Samsung has rolled out ICS, you will have to wait for KIES update otherwise do as JJE advised, or flash eligible ROM with CSC already rolled out...

From what I can see the information "This is the latest firmware" provided by Kies is correct. If in doubt use CheckFus to get the latest firmware for your phone.
