Hey,
just read that major german carriers are rolling out ICS today. Deutsche Telekom seems to be offering the update from today on. Anyone has checked this out yet? Maybe there's a new build coming .....

what does a higher change number bring you, when most of the changes done is by the carrier who (most of the time) does change things to the worst.
i'd always prefer an open firmware (like the german one) to a carrier f'd up firmware with a slightly higher build number

So what you're saying is each carrier increases the Changelist count.
Which means the next firmware you get with an even higher changelist count will already include the supposed carrier changes.
The changelist refers to the android framework and kernel changes.
It has nothing to do with the carrier. It's manufactured and developed by samsung.

are you sure about that ?
of course carrier changes by carrier A will not get carried over to carrier B !
my understanding is:
google delivers an build with buildnumber with Changelist X
now carrier A fiddles around with that build to customize it which will result in an Changelist value of X+Y (Y being the customer changes)
carrier B might get the same build by google and fiddle around less with it
the resulting changelist value of X gets added by Z (Z being carrier B changes) which is a lower value
just because changelist in rom B is lower than in rom A doesn't make rom A "newer"...
for a better understanding i will put numbers and names into it:
google releases a android 4.0.3 build to carriers with a changelist of 200'000.
verizon takes that build and customizes it which results in their rom having a changelist of 230'000.
at&t takes the same build (with changelist of 200'000) and adds fewer changes, resulting in their rom having a changelist of 210'000.
does that mean that verizons rom is newer ? no, it's just that they made more changes to the available stock/vanila build by android.
in the end people want newer vanila builds and not the latest carrier changes!
so a carrier rom with changelist 350'000 is probably based on an older build than an open rom with a changelist of 340'000.

What happens if we get another XWLP8, unbranded this time?
Does it mean that samsung accepted the carrier changes and implemented them into their generic build?
This has happened many times in the past.
The only rational explanation is that XWLP8 is simply newer and has more bugs fixed than XWLP7.
No, of course not. there are three parties involved here. Google, samsung and the Carrier. The order is fixed and does imply that a carrier change will not be applied to the next samsung rom, just like a samsung change will not be applied to the next vanilla Android build, since google has no interest to modify their base build to incorporate changes that add functions for samsung phones just as samsung won't apply a carrier modification to their general build, because it does not make any sense to have modifications that make a device work better on only one Carrier and worse on others.
I think you live in the illusion that a carrier would actually add features to a ROM that every user would benefit from which is just not true

Can I just flash this via Odin (one file -> PDA) over my current CM9 nightly? Or do I need a kernel as well?
No - just wipe and flash.

I just purchased the Galaxy Tab 10.1. I have been reading around here about people updating to 3.2 using Kies. I have the latest Kies installed but it does not detect a software update. I bought the Tab from the middle east. Any idea what's going wrong here? Thanks in advance!
You said you bought your Tab from the Middle East???
Are you using it in the USA???
If that's the case, your Tab is most likely set to that region of the world. And their most likely not an update available.
And also, you need to give us a bit more info...

I am having the same issue I bought mine in Canada (and currently living there) and I am still seeing 3.1 as the latest firmware available.
I bought mine from The Source store and not through a carrier so could that be the problem?
I bought mine from a carrier but officially unlocked and Kies still finds 3.1 as the latest firmware. I've been reading about the improvement in the 3.2 specially with the web browser. I hope someone here can find an explanation or better a solution!

What other info I should be providing? It's officially unlocked, I have not rooted it yet. Let me know what other info I should be giving here. Thanks!

In the 'About Tablet' screen there is a build number displayed like 'P7510XXKH3'.
In general Samsung releases follow:
P7510 is the model
XX is the region/carrier
KH3 is the build
XX = Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom
K=2011
H=August
3=revision
Depending on what region/carrier your tablet has will determine when (if) you get a new release. Not all regions are released at the same time e.g. some translations may take longer, or a release is only made to a 'select few' to determine any issues. Or the carrier wants to test/add their own customisations.
In the UK we have had KH3 for a couple of months, and are waiting for 3.2 as well.
Though there does seem to be some variations on the release numbering scheme e.g. my i9000 on Vodaphone says it is BUJV9, V is not a month, thouth it is a Vodaphone release not Samsung.
Keith
Well, if your Tablets CSC is NEE, you should recieve the update, Over The Air! Remember that hehe.
Here are the info:
Baseband version: P7500XXKG7
Kernel version: 2.6.36.3 [email protected] #1
Build number: HMJ37 P7500JPKG6
Another thing is when I choose to check for software update from "About Tablet" it says "Wi-Fi is not available. Disable Wi-Fi only. Using 3G network may incur additional charges" how do I disable "Wi-Fi only"?
keithmoore so there is no official update 3.2 for GT-P7510?
Yes, there is, but only a few regions seem to have it so far. The US definately have it (though it took them twice to get it right), but in the UK we are still waiting (unless you use a custom ROM).
Hi guys...excuse my newbieNESS I am seeing this abbreviation over and over again, what is LPY or LPF? I've searched here and google, I didn't find anything.

They are stock ICS roms
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
To be more precise they are specific region ROMs.
LPY is open Germany
LPF is Taiwan
basically if your Galaxy Note is for that specific region you can get ICS update OTA or through Kies.
You can put these ROMs on any unlocked Galaxy Note but you'll have to do it manually through PC Odin from SamFirmware site.
Dammit, stop abbreviating ICS build codes without the region/carrier code!
XXLPY = Official ICS release for the XX region (which is most of Europe)
ZSLPF = Official ICS release for the ZS region (Taiwan)
Samsung build codes:
First two letters: Region
Third letter: Year
Fourth letter: Month of year for Gingerbread, P for ICS (except UC region = AT&T, which continues using proper month codes)
Fifth number/letter: Build of month (or, for ICS, build sequence for that region.)
Samsung's replacement of month with P = epic fail - they've almost exhausted their sequence codes already. (up to Y for XX region). Don't know if they'll bump the P up to Q or what.

Why people keep saying ZSLPF is for Taiwan?
ZS is the samsung country code for Hong Kong. Taiwan is ZT.
I cannot find any taiwan stuff inside this rom. But the hong kong IME is there.

Well, if one user made repeated identical posts, I could see it being problematic. But do you really think banning someone for a single post is appropriate? I could understand a mod(not a senior member) giving a warning or something if it got out of hand. But three people having a laugh doesn't do any harm. I'm sure this will get locked at some point, but WTF man? If you would just let this thread die, nobody would post anything in it. But you had to bump it. What exactly were you hoping to accomplish? Just let the thread die if you don't want stupid posts in it.

Since around a month, there hasnt been any new Galaxy S4 updates when it comes to Middle eastern, African and neighbouring countries like Pakistan, Afghanistan because all of them are stuck at UBMEA. But on the other hand, Indian Sub continent (inda,Srilanka, nepal, bangladesh,etc.) are now ahead of the rest by THREE updates (MF5,MF8,MG1) now which is stupid and it doesnt make sence.
I know it takes time, but in the past with Galaxy S3 updates, all countries used to get the SAME update and then after some time, Samsung used to release a new update when most of the countries had got the previous update. But now Samsung have ignored the rest and concentrating on few countries now.
IT makes me wonder whether whether the rest countries are now being ignored or indian sub continent has got the most faulty units in comparison to others.
Thoughts?
p.s. Not all people like to 0din and flash manually.
There isn't a logical answer at your question. Middle East countries sale match more than Shrilanca Indonesia, Bangladesh e.t.c

I would suggest you use Odin and install the latest firmwares coming out. Those are official updates. I guess that's the reason why your phone came with Odin mode.
I got my phone from a distributor, and my phone came from South Africa. It took a while before I got the MEA update, and now that I see new firmwares coming out, I finally decided to use Odin, my phone is now officially from Bangladesh (software-wise)

If you look on Sammobile or Samsung-Updates at any Samsung device there are regions on ancient ROMs while CSC's like DBT have gotten three updates. It's pretty random from device-to-device and region-to-region.
It's more of the official country importer's fault than Samsung's fault...

No its samsungs, they should send out the update to everyone. I understand the delay, HTC devices also have similar delays when software updates are rolled out.
There are people in the UK Still stuck on MDM..... Not sure why you think you think you are being ignored.
Dont worry though, nothing past MEA seems to make much of a difference anyway lol
dude most latin american countries are still rocking MDE or MDK
now thats ignored, mine was TPA(Panama) and to this day MDK is its latest

I seriously dont understand the differences because it is absurd. Either the indian sub continent has sold more i9500 than other countries or Samsung dont like to take notice of other countries. HTC is Way better when it comes to 'Distribution' (and not the number) of updates as they cover the whole continent at once.

HTC is exactly the same. They are just have a different way to do that (by CID) and you can't flash a new firmware without rooting or messing with your device.
All OEMs are the same, they have a lot of differe t firmwares for a lot of different regions, thus making everybody wait for ages or ignoring some regions completely, LG doesnt count cause they almost never update their devices
why doenst samsung release two universal firmwares for the 9500 and 9505 and then the carrier specifics? would be a lot easier

Whenever I check for updates from the phone or kies, they notify me with that I have the latest firmware installed.

There are many samsung firmware builds, just for i9505 and i9500 itself there are many different firmware variations.
From what I understand, different regions uses different modems am I right? If not, then why do Samsung update their firmware based on different regions?
When Android 4.3 was released, it was released as per region and to Russia first. Why cant they just send out one uniform update OTA to all devices of that model? If its because of the modems, then why dont other manufacturers like HTC do the same? They are able to push out one HTC update for all international HTC phones...

it s not always because of bandwidth traffics
sometimes they release firmware for test if someone find bug and then solve it for another region (and also with minor update for first regions)
htc released update for htc one world-wide But how u compare samsung with htc
S4 was one of the best sell in history of smartphone (always samsung device do this) so thr s more s4 users than htc one
also it happened for some device for sony xperia
SO be patient
However u can flash stocks roms

completely stock and without warranty void...

Actually the purpose of this post is to gain some knowledge on how Samsung update goes on... I am very patient I am not rushing to the point I need to flash a custom ROM. So you are saying that each region has their own Samsung tech guy that will work on the initial release to fix bugs before passing to another region?
There are not just more variants of firmware in s4, but also the same for any samsung phone. Does anyone else have their opinion on this matter as well? I would like to get feedback on what people think behind samsung's update procedure.
I'm also interested in having an answer on the subject. If I can flash a firmware from another region on my phone, what's the purpose of having several firmwares...Besides some tweaks apparently.
Wouldn't it be more interesting if all the developers from Samsung focused on the same firmware to eliminate the bugs more rapidly for example? I don't really see the link between several firmwares and the number of users. Ok, the S4 sold by millions, and?
Thanks.
What difference does it make.As long as your getting your updates, why would you care about any other region.
Are you doing a Samsung case study or preparing a lawsuit; otherwise email CEO of Samsung.
I can post his tag if needed..lol

The time discrepancy its coming from carriers. Most of them wants to integrate their own bloatwares in their phones. And some are doing faster than others. That's why there's so many region specific firmwares when its about Touchwiz. You won't see region specific firmwares for Google Play Edition.

I wish I could, when I got it it was already second hand but I suspect that it has been previously rooted or had another ROM flashed.. I will try locate the box for it. All I can say is that I believe it was SIM free originally and I am in the UK.
I also received update notice today that new system update available
14.4.A.0.108 which i think is 4.4.4
did not bother installing it and i am also from uk
Still no joy, uk unbranded.
I guess this may add some confusion now because he update checker shows 1792 and 4053 as generic.
The question is what is the difference between these two? I suspect one of them is not generic!

The question is what is the difference between these two? I suspect one of them is not generic!

Looks like a later revision phone. Should be fine IMO. Will flash it tonight and see :good:
Flashed successfully, previously stock UK 4.4.2 (.761) :good:
Only problem is the LTE icon instead of 4G as it was previously. Don't know why it would have changed if this is also the UK version.

Settings => More... => Mobile networks => Data roaming.
If it's an UK rom, you will see an option for 'National roaming'.

Nope, with this ROM, there is just a tickbox for data roaming, nothing for national roaming
I have no LTE coverage where I am so cannot check the LTE icon, but these screenshots indicate LTE rather than 4G.
I have not seen the national roaming on this or the previous version, I will check some other phones later today.

I have just checked another Generic UK Z1C (1279-4727 - 14.3.A.0.757) and there is no option there either.

Strange, ive got that option in .757 1279-5054.3 unbranded but only shows 4g(preferred) etc etc in Network mode and no LTE option. Could it be down to the default network modes set in the service menu that makes it show or not?
Ive still not got 4.4.4 offered through pc companion or .761 either. Would flashing the roms using flash tool but still have a locked bootloader stop these from appearing? Im wanting to fresh install the phone and root using the new method and have a lot of crap on internal storage i want rid of.
Hi, thanks for sharing.
Can some one post deodexed version of this firmware ?

Why do you want the deodexed version?
My UK Z1C was from Carphone Warehouse so is unbranded, no offer of the Android 4.4.4 update yet either.
Anyone know if this update fixes the horrendous bugs the first KitKat update brought in? I bought the phone for the camera, its been useless since KitKat, talk about 'missing the moment' every time you try to take a pic and it takes 20 seconds to load the camera, lol
I have looked up this 1279-4053 using the excellent XperiFirm tool (which gets its data straight from the official Sony servers) and it turns out that this customization is for UKRAINE, not for United Kingdom:
This thread title should be updated to say "Generic UA Unbranded" for clarity!
I have uploaded an FTF of the actual 1279-4727 United Kingdom customization (with the national data roaming option present) here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/son...tock-rom-xperia-z1c-d5503-14-4-0-108-t2839005
Confirm, customization 1279-4053 - is "Generic UA" (Ukraine)
Thread updated, now I know the origin of my phone.
