Hi,
Today I received an OTA update on Galaxy S II (India). It contained Android 4.1.2 (JB). Update went smoothly without a glitch.
But now, after setting "Software Update" on my device, it says, "Your device has been modified. Software updates are not available."
What went wrong.?
How can I rectify the problem.?
Thanks.
Note: I have never rooted my phone with custom ROMs. Also, in download mode custom binary download is: NO. No triangle anywhere.
Mate forget about kies best way go to sammobile.com download rom u want flash using odin and enjoy . kies is rubish

who cares there won't be an update in ages so until 4.2.2 you can get it by flashing it using odin

Hi all
Noob with SGS2, had it about a week and am CF rooted XWKI4 but think i have installed wrong kernel.
When connected to Kies it says "Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies" with current firmware version as: I9100XWKI4/I9100XEUKH2/I9100XXKL1/I9100XWKI4 (XEU).
How do I get back to stock firmware so I can update to latest firmware via Kies?
As well got the 'Yellow triangle' and bought a USB jig but triangle will not remove after reboot.
Any replies and any SGS2 rooting help in general would be most appreciated.
regards

Firstly kies doesn't recognise your phone because your running custom firmware, you are running the latest firmware for your phone to this date. To remove you're triangle read the same thread you used to root again second post I think on how to remove the triangle.

Download the 4.1.2 firmware (if it is released for your region) from Sammobile.com and flash through ODIN. You'll have to re-root again, though.
Cheers!
Wrong section, post in QA

Download 4.1.2 firmware from any link. Install Mobile Odin. Flash using Mobile Odin and check the Everroot checkbox. Once done you will have all updates and root intalled on your device.
Will that delete data like apps or contacts etc?

contacts and Apps normally not. (Only you factory reset the phone, then apps will be erased) Flashing so many firmwares but never erasing contacts.
hi, to be fear i had the same problem and all i had to do was to update the firmware using the Samsung kies...once you connect the phone to your computer, will have to open the Samsung kies and the program will automatically ask you if you want to update your firmware; and if you don't know how to get the Samsung kies you will have to go on the samsung website and check in the download section. I hope that I have been enough helpful to you and to anyone else that had or have the same problem :laugh: .

He's rooted. Kies won't update it. Kies will only update when it's unmodified, and CSC matches.

You don't need to root your phone to upgrade it to 4.1.2
Just download a 4.1.2 ROM from sammobile.com and flash through ODIN and you're good to go.

my s3 is presently running ics 4.0.4. it is carrier free. i'm trying to flash XXELLA through odin. so it checks md5 successfully but fails to open serial port and obviously i get a "FAIL". any help?
Did you install kies on your comp, kies have driver for your s3, i think odin didnt recognize your s3, that's why its failed, try installing kies first then try again

nope: it is recognized by kies (for which the device is up to date in my country). the firmware is ok, I flashed it already on another s3. the message is "cannot open serial port"
EDIT : sorry folks, I just forgot kies running; that's why the serial port was not available for flashing. now everything's fine

Multiple possible answers all covered in the basics .
Kies running wrong USB cable not using motherboard usb port are just a few .

Hello, i m trying to keep my phone in "official" state to recive ota upgrade, untill i was using 4.1.2+cf-autoroot everythhink worked ok
i resetted status with triangleaway and allowed tracker to run to stay in "official" status, and i recived ota upgrade to 4.3 (italian nobrand)
After upgrading to 4.3 i lost root so i re-rooted with cf-autroot but this time i can't stay in "official" status and i dont know whi because everythink
is the same... i used triangle away to reset again flashcounter... but i got "personalized" status and not "official"
so maybe problem can be the stock recovery that cf-aturoot flashed after rooting... maybe samsung upgraded it from 4.1.2
can some one provide the stock "ready to flash" recovery of the 4.3 firmware ugmk6 ? So i can make a test to understand if problem is that or maybe samsung make new kind of check to discover phone status...
Thanks & sorry for my english.
You do not post questions in development .
Works with the 4.3 recovery.img and triangle away play edition download stock firmware an unzip this flash recovery.img with mobilodin and use triangle away play edition

Hello,
I did root my at&t galaxy note 1 device using instructions available from a thrid party website. I was successful.
Now when I connect my device to the compute, Samsung Kies informs me that there is a update version 4.1.2 available.
My question is:
1)Is it safe for me to update the version through Kies?
2) If there is a compatiable version of KitKat available for Note 1, where and how can I update it?
3) Is ROM nothing but the new version of Operating system?
Thank you
Nepo

The update is nothing new. Dont know what you were running, but upgrade is just touchwiz JB. May lose root with update, so it could just be a cycle thing. Its all a mute point if your goal was to flash custom rom. Everything custom is an upgrade from stock.

Thank you for your reply.
Kies messages is :
Current Version 4.0.4
Upgrade Version 4.1.2.
I just want to check that this doesnt brick my phone
Thank you
4.0.4 is ice cream sandwich. 4.1.2 is jellybean. If kies allows you to update then you will only have to reroot your phone as you did before.
