I upgraded my phone via kies from stock jf3 to JP6/JPM/JP4 everything was running good for weeks now.
But yesterday i screwed up my phone, but i could get into download mode and since i cant flash jp6/jpm/jp4 via odin (or can I??) i decided to go back to jf3 and upgrade via kies again.
So i downloaded jf3 from samfirmware and flashed via odin, went fine! I then connected to kies and i can upgrade firmware but not to jp6/jpm/jp4 instead i get option to upgrade to JPA/JPP/JP4...
why does i not get jp6/jpm/jp4 and/or what should i do to get it?
different csc file with jf3 maybe?? sadly i cannot remember wich csc file i had with jf3 before...
Any help would be much appreciatet
JP6 was taken down by Samsung, as it had some bugs.
Right now official version of Froyo for nordic countries is JPA.
So everything is as it should be. You won't get JP6 by Kies any more - instead you get newer JPA.
argh... OK! thank you very much...!
jpa runs very smooth with speedmod froyo kernel and advanced jfs lagfix!
But then again, so did jp6...

I just received my Samsung Galaxy S I9000 today and am using it as I charge it. I dialed *#1234# to see that I have the following firmware:
PDA: I9000XXJF3
Phone: I9000XXJF3
CSC: I9000OXAJF3
Can someone please tell me which firmware I should be upgrading to so that I have the most recent and least laggy firmware.
Cheers
What does Kies offer you with firmware update?
Kies does not let me do an update, possibly because of my region, I'm unsure. I live in New Zealand
JM1 official seems like a good one to go for, you may with some tweaking be able to get Kies to update. See this thread > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7807299#post7807299
So i used the ctrl+alt+u+p trick and it attempted to upgrade to JM1 but was unable to and gave me the error failed to convert to upgrade mode. do I need to boot my phone into some sort of upgrade mode or something?
I've been trying for 2 days to update to JM1, as kies said the firmware update was available for my phone.
I finally solved the "failed to convert to update mode" problem.
Basically, from what I spotted after installing and uninstalling kies a few times is that all the drivers for the phone install (modem, mass storage etc), except "usb composite device" maybe they forgot to bundle that specific drive in with kies?
Go here, download these drivers and install them. It will say they're already installed, but go ahead and install over the top.

Solved my headache!
hi, i followed the guide in the dev section and debranded my phone from 3 u.k but when i plug into kies it still show 3 fw and says cannot update even though i changed the csc aswell. is there anyway to get kies to recognise it properly as i didnt really want to keep manually having to flash the lastest fw thats why i de-branded so kies would do it auto!
edit found the solution after 1 hr searching....... odin update only
Spoof fw might help .

Kies updates branded firmware with the correct product codes that match whats on the server not stock rom thats what i have always posted long long time .
Though some claim to have updated stock via Kies but if that was the norm we would not have the multitude of same posts and kies reg spoofing would not have been developed likewise Spoof FW
About forty personal tries with stock rom on SGS1 and 2 for me have always failed . Put back original rom always worked .

I have the same problem but I have fix it now, I just boot in recovery mode and wipe alle partition data, wipe alle date and factory , after that boot up in download mode and reflash in odin... and dont forget to delete kies in pc and delete samsung folders and usb driver before reinstall kies this work for me and kies reconize my phone and FW version now.
You did do a factory reset after changing to XEU csc didn't you?
I had no problems when I debranded my O2 handset a week ago - it's been recognised as a generic XEU handset ever since and I updated to KE7 via Kies.
Hi,
I just installed kies today and got a message that my tab (p7510) has not an official firware and cannot be updated. I bought the tab in canada and live in germany.
Afterwards I used odin to flash xwkg7 (only pda, not bootloader).
Since then Kies does not show the current firmware anymore. The field is blank.
Any ideas how I can fix this?

I have the same problem.
I found the solution by myself.
I just flashed with odin "PDA". This caused that /system is overwritten, which is good. However, I did not install "CSC" which is usually also copied to /system. As a matter of fact, I didn´t have the csc stuff and this caused Kies to freak out.
Solution:
Use odin to flash PDA *and* CSC at the same time!
Never ever flash PDA alone, because then your csc files are gone.
Hope this will help someone
However, now Kies tells me that I do not have an official firmware version on my tab and thus no updates through Kies are supported. Damn... Ideas?
Hello Klaus,
This I had already tried again and got the message as you've described. Who can help us.
Hi All,
I have a strange issue, I have upgraded my phone to kitkat(I9500XXUFNE4) thru odin, but the modem is missing and cause of that IMEI is showing as "null/null", so I tried flashing only modem from the zip file of I9500XXUFNE4 but didn't work, and now only way to get modem back on my phone is when I flash "GT-I9500_Modem_XXUEMJ8", the only problem with this is, if I tried to install Paranoid Android my modem again goes missing and even though I flash "GT-I9500_Modem_XXUEMJ8" thru odin still it doesn't, it's like only if I flash Samsung's official firmware then only flashing "GT-I9500_Modem_XXUEMJ8" will bring back my modem and IMEI#.
I should probably mention this also- previously I had installed leaked firmware of open asia "I9500XXUEMJ5_I9500ODDEMJ5_I9500DDUEMJ5_ODD", since then even though I update my phone via official Samsung's OTA or kies, it just updated my "AP" and "CSC, but I have to flash "GT-I9500_Modem_XXUEMJ8" in order to get back my modem.
Please help me, as I want to use my S4 with AOSP or AOKP based roms only.
P.S. I had three generations of Galaxy S series starting from I9000 and since those days I'm flashing my phone and using Custom roms.

Hi guys,
I'm having problems with KIES and ODIN updating my i9505 from 4.3 to 4.4.2 (Official Vodafone Spain)
Everytime I try to update via KIES 3 the USB connection seems to disappear when the updater finishes downloading those 1.6GB of data, it says something about losing connection between PC and terminal. Also, when I'm into download mode the grey letters say System Status Custom! I've never touched anything related to the firmware, having it branded and unflashed since I've bought it to not lose warranty.
Same thing with Odin 1.85 and 3.10, I've flashed my previous i9100 like ten times and I've had no problems back then. Now it says FAIL everytime and if I add the PIT file it autostops and fails again.
Dunno what to do now, as I want to flash the new OS to see if it fixes my dropping network problems (I've changed simcard before with no relief)?
TIA,
