FIRMWARES: Samsung I9100XWKFI, I9100BUKE5, I9100TDUKE6 Online! (Android 2.3.3)
http://twitter.com/#!/SamFirmware
Looks like KF1 is still 2.3.3 and not the 2.3.4 update we have been waiting for
Hopefully our update will come soon and sort out all of the battery drain issues.
Hope this helps.
Something IS happening finally ;-) samsung makes imho the best phones but when it comes to firmware they kinda like to hesitate...still thumbs up. Hopefully they fixed the gps issues for germany.
Cheers

Didn't have these issues, I've never had to restart the phone, except yesterday, when i set my device-font to the original one, because the font had a border, after a restart it hadn't the border anymore .
Btw: I thought the navigation is using the gyroscope for tunnels, to get the position without gps, but with the google navigation it isn't working... didn't test it on offline navigations, did anyone?
Anyone knows if swedish languages in included?

My details on the 'about phone' are:
Baseband: I9100XXKE4
Build number: GINGERBREAD.XWKE7
Android version: 2.3.3
Also, do i just use odin like i did with XE7 and flash the firmware that way?
Thanks guys,
Chris

Hey,
does anyone tried to root the phone after the update? And is it a wipe-update?

Been using it a few days now and it's worth while updating from XXKI3.
Can I ask what differences you have noticed yourself?
Stability/speed differences? Features?
Thanks in advance

It's a test ROM, also available through KIES (in test mode).

It's going to be released officially in the coming days.
Intra, which CSC have you used in the XEU package. (as in KD1, KI3 etc)
Is this a newer version than ki8 or is it between ki3 and ki8?
Sent from my GT-I9100
Ok, I'm confused.
A new ROM with the same code as an old one?
Is it 2.3.5 or .4?
Shouldn't we be getting KJ ROMs, since we are pass mid October?
I just want to confirm the Frankenstein version is non wipe as before? Also, does it have the old bootloader? Thanks.

you are wrong the other KI4 was XWKI4 2.3.4
this one is XXKI4 2.3.5
To answer my own (and another) question:
The XEU package includes the KH2 CSC file
Yes, the XEU package is non-wipe, as it's a 1 file flash in Odin (that's the quick way to tell if it's wipe or not)

Ok, fair enough... XX instead of XW. I still think is quite a confusing use of the coding, specially the way we use it here (where usually we pretty much ignore the zone code) but ok.
What's the modem version bundled with this and how's it faring?

True but that's the way sammy likes to make their Roms i personally hate it they should make a global Rom

Just checked on my unbranded (XEU), Kies says my firmware - KI4 2.3.4 is the latest

Its an unlocked phone from p4u unbranded and I'm on three, but theres no sim in the phone when I've connected. I've not downloaded it yet its still plugged in an showing. I didn't really want to be first trying it because my phone has no problems and I don't want to lose the 5x4 icon setup unless I'm forced too and I don't know whether this will do that to my phone. By the way its never been upgraded yet from its original rom of KE7 KE4 KD1.
Firstly Kies wont remove any of your apps/settings, if you have rooted the phone you will lose this. It sounds like you are being offered the upgrade to 2.3.4 which has been out a while. 2.3.5 is the one we are waiting on which is a different KI4.
Is there anyway I can check for you without going through with the full upgrade, the other day I handled a new galaxy w in p4u and that had 2.3.5 in it I took a photo of it, every write up and comment on that phone says 2.3.3. Lets hope things have moved on, but as I said in op didn't really want to try it first.
See attached
Thank you. I've been reading about the Kl4 in the discussion thread thats not officially out , I don't supposed you would care to comment on whether its worth my upgrading,whats the balance of losses and gains you find in this release as apposed to the one I've got.
It's up to you whether you want to upgrade the fw, if you're on 2.3.3 I would do it, we could new waiting a while for Samsung to release 2.3.5 on kies for unbranded phones.

Sorry tried to delete this don't know how.
I have just been offered KI4 on XEO!! I was already on KI3 and don't know if there is any major difference. Does anyone know if there is a major difference or not?
Thanks,

It seems to me that it is faster than KI3 and with better battery life.
The only difference is that it is official now!
Happy flashing!
The XXKI4 is not the same as the XWKI4. Both have been available in the firmware thread in the dev forum a while now.
Thanks for that. I have flashed and had the fastest kies flash ever. Thanks for the info.

Could be preparation for ICS, Although that is just a guess.
Anytime i see anything about an update i just keep thinking it's ICS!!
Can't wait for it.
probably the one hand keyboard update
So XLA4 is the big update they're pushing out to everyone?
I was wondering what it was.

Info about the update
Hello guys!
I bought my Galaxy Note in France (I work there).
The PDA/PHONE/CSC are XXKKA/XXKK5/XXKK5.
Build info is Friday 11 Nov...
How is it possible to receive official updates (stock roms) without flashing?
Please do not start telling me to read guides and so on... I worked on Android platform and after this experience I am aware how preparing roms and custom stuff is obviously a great challenge, gives you great satisfaction, but makes the phone be more prone to crashes, memory leaks and so on.
Thank you in advance.

No update for slovakia, orange. just waiting for ICS
patient is a virtue tow weeks. when i bought my xoom, after 6 mounts of delays my daily routine was check for updates , not any more..

I'm sure you were joking but this actually does raise a point that people should take into consideration:
If the phone is bought from the UK but the firmware is German, then it will get German upgrades. If it's bought from amazon.de and has Chinese firmware then it will only get Asian upgrades.
It doesn't matter where you buy the phone from, it matters what country the firmware is directed at. I also own a UK note which has BRI as the sales code and I don't have any update even though I live in Finland.

The rom is released today trough KIES. Build date can still be november 2011
Which means, ICS for Turkey will come 3 months later
As I always say, Turkey for Samsung is like 4th world country
Too bad, I would like an ICS for all non-carrier specific regions at same time...

Actually just opened KIES and saw the update. Yes, that is confirmed via KIES, not a beta rom etc.
However I downloaded it from Check Fus Update for Mobile Odin stuff...
i still w8 for 2.3.6 on kies -.-
This is nothing but localizations for a build that was released months ago, if it is even that. It's probably just Kies getting flagged to release XWKK2 to Turkish users who aren't able to just flash a newer build themselves. (Basically, not of much interest/use for anyone here on XDA...)
