There is a R1FA016 Update available. Has anyone been able to install it?
When I connect my phone to the Sony Ericsson PC Companion or to the Update service it first stated there was an update available, but after I clicked update it showed the following message "Your phone is up to date"
I have the R1FA014 build number..so obviously something isn't adding up..
Anyone found a way to install the update?
Read up the thread on debranding but do it at your own discretion and risk.
But use the right firmware when you are debranding, otherwise u will loose specific social groups in timescape!
now i'm using SE X2, but i got a big problem with SEUS when i wanna update my X2. After i had connected my x2 with SEUS successfully, finished downloading the new rom for X2 through SEUS, then it stoped, it didn't install new rom into my phone with the notice that the services was failed. I tried to reinstall seus but it still didn't work
Anyone helps me plz. thanks!
what windows do you use. is your pc strong enough to run SEUS, minimum specs are listed on the SE site? is your phone battery above 50%. test the usb cable if it works by transfering some data...

I have 2 PC's: 1 is a tablet laptop from HP (Vista 32bit), 1 is a desktop from Acer (Vista 64bit). The HP is high-usage, all sorts of crap on it. The Acer is low-usage, Media PC.
First few times I tried upgrading firmware (or reloading after a phone-hangup), I had to use the Acer, because every time I tried updating via the HP, ...it would run the progress bar ALL the way through the process to the end (right side of the bar), then give an error stating that the update failed.
A couple weeks ago, I did a reload again, and thought I'd give the HP a shot at it one more time. This time, it failed exactly the same way, but for some reason, I accidentally booted the phone.....and it was fine (did the whole new-setup as expected).
So, moral of the story:
--If the SEUS site isn't working for you, try another PC.
--If you have no other PC and the SEUS site is saying it's not working, don't believe it and try booting your phone anyway.
(I have a feeling that it never updates the bootloader, and that's in a separate memory space. So, you'd probably have to go out of your way to corrupt the phone so bad that you wouldn't be able to hook-up the bootloader with the SEUS site and try again.)
Hi whoami9999,
Just try it once again after stopping / disabling your anti virus and firewall.. And one more thing, don't forget to re-enable it after checking!

Hello everyone
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 with stock 4.3 android of BTU (MJ7).
I entered today Kies to check for updates (like I do every few days) and I got a message my device got a newer firmware.
OK so I clicked on update and accepted the terms and started the update.
At first it wrote "Downloading firmware upgrade components" and right after it showed the error "Failed to run firmware upgrade.Unknown error occurred."
I googled the problem and I tried already resetting the computer and the device, re-installing Kies3 and re-installing the USB drivers. Nothing helped.
Moreover, when I check for updates through the device settings it says I have the latest firmware.
My Knox flag is 0x0 and the device status is written as official.
I don't have any other computer to check.
So what is the problem and how to solve it?
Is my computer at fault? Or the device? Or Samsung's servers?
And why when I check through device settings it says I have already the latest firmware?
Thanks in advance
OK I solved the issue by disabling the Avast antivirus.
My only question now is why the OTA service said I have the latest firmware at the same time that Kies offered me an update?

Rule #1 Never update via KIES unless you don't know what are you doing...
KIES is for backup (what I never use) but all you need from them is samsung drivers... that's it

I replied and said that I succeeded in updating via Kies. The antivirus blocked the update.
My question is why this update didn't show up in device's settings via OTA?

After searching the internet with the same problem I got so many responses some saying don't use kies, while others say kies is the way to go I decided to visit the Samsung website to see what they say about this particular error.
I had put in the link that will take you directly but am not yet allowed to do that as a new user.
anyway on the Samsung website I selected my mobile model etc till I got to a page where I got 2 options one to upgrade through kies or upgrade through fota. I chose kies. you will then see where it tells you to download the kies software. I had kies but I still took the choice to download.
during the download and installation process it will notice that u already have kies on your pc so it will ask you to remove these, you must agree to remove. from there just follow all the instructions, it worked my gt-s5830 has been updated from 2.2.1 to 2.3.3
hope this helps
if anyone has any issues with updating your mobile on kies, ensure your anti virus is off and you run the program as an administrator...it gave me hell on earth for hours.
used kies on windows 7
hope this helps

Could you tell us more on your phone. The version of firmware before, which root method you use, which stock version of firmware you install via odin, etc...

Hello, recently I tried to flash my phone in flashtool and always stuck at "reading device information", even xperia companion can't detect it !
I re-installed all drivers, tried old versions of flashtool and firmware but always the same problem.
My phone is rooted but I don't know about bootloader. Any help? suggestions?
Thanks
You should probably ask moderators to deleted this since it's already under help section as well.
