[Q] OTA update problem - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys
I have Samsung Galaxy S III with CSC of KSA, and recently updated to 4.0.4 with BB of XXLH1.
However, some reported the availability of JB 4.1.1 via PC Samsung Kies. But it still shows "No update available" whenever I check mobile "Software update". Many neighbor countries had already updated to JB a month ago using both Kies and OTA.
What do you think guys? Another bug from Samsung? Or there is something wrong?

I am still able to update using PC Kies but not OTA!!!

Maybe ota hasn't been released for your country yet.

there have been no new roms as everyone is waiting for ICS roms which are due by early to mid 2012.
Over the past few months Samsung Mobile Singapore has only provided one update which is android 2.3.3 DXKI2. Those who bought the phone in june/july it was shipped with android 2.3.3 DXKF1. Only change was the chinese menu. Here's a list for countries with official firmware version. http://www.youmobile.org/blogs/entr...-2-3-5-Countries-Release-Status-Daily-Updated
Never mind.
Stop using kies and start using Odin to install updated official firmware that you can download from intratechs official firmware thread. It's in the dev section.
Actually Odin is quicker and better at upgrading than kies anyway.
You can still keep an eye on official releases by using an app called checkfus from the market.
All the info and downloads you need are in that thread but if you need a hand sing out.
Hope this helps.

No.

Firmware Update Australia international version

Hi guys,
Just got a notification about an update was thinking it was jelly bean but it was LH1 which was released back in august.
Just wanting to know if everyone got pushed to this update recently or was I just delayed for the last 2 months due to my location of Australia ?
The phone is the international unlocked version so I assumed I should be recieving the updates with those guys.
Either way for jelly bean I can flash it myself im just wanting to know if the delay was from my location ?
Cheers

Most likely, OTA updates are CSC based.
You can always flash it yourself with ODIN and proper ROMs. Jelly Bean is out only for Poland CSC so far.
Cheers.-
CSC is not the update path ..
Generally a rollout is not a worldwide roll out on day one .
Samsung release a rom its handed to the networks /phone providers they decide if and when it will be released .
LH1 was pushed out as a modem update initially for a problem with some UK phones .

Jelly bean update issue uk

Hi I'm wondering if anyone can help?. I have a samsung s3 19300 on three mobile uk and a friend flashed my phone for me to get a leaked version of the jelly bean update. I have since read that three mobile have released the official jelly bean update but I haven't received a ota update or can't update through kies due to them not letting you when you flash. My main question is even though I have a leaked version should I still be able to get the ota update come through?
Any help really appreciated

NO OTA.
Try update via Kies if not you will need to flash via ODIN .

You need to flash back to stock h3g ics then use kies to get the update. Remember to download stock three firmware.
Did he install a custom kernel when he installed the leak?

[Q] Firmware Upgrade 4.3

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?
