Conflicting firmware upgrade information from kies

I'm getting conflicting information from kies about firmware update availability. A popup message appears saying the firmware is ready to be upgraded. I then start kies and plug in my tab, and I am told I already have the latest firmware.

Bought my tab in Dubai airport, but live in New Zealand and am using it with Vodafone New Zealand. I switched from XSS to XSG from *#272*imei# menu.
*#1234# reports:
PDA: P1000JPJM5
PHONE P1000JXJM2
CSC: P1000OJPJM6
Firmware version: 2.2
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1
Any ideas? I'd like to upgrade to gingerbread when it's available, but can't use custom firmware as it's a work phone. Do you think switching back from XSG to XSS might help?

Mine too was bought in dubai.I have since flashed the Asian froyo and now it has been updated to the latest gingerbread thru kies. I read somewhere that there are issues with the Middle Eastern/Arabic region with android that needs to be resolved before an upgrade is officially issued.
Since your tab is a work device and I assume you are ok with it then there is no solid reason to get gb by flashing with all the risks. But if you think you can go thru the steps in flashing then go ahead and follow the steps here in this forum.
Good luck!

[Q] How to remove aokp knightly kitkat and restoring original rom

I want to remove the aokp kitkat rom but I dont know how. each time I try to flash the original rom using ODIN I always end up with a failure bootloop and I would then have to re-flash the recovery. I discovered some thing in the settings menu and I'm wondering whether or not it is the reason for my not being able to restore the original rom

Firmware and CSC mess

Hello
I have a Samsung Galaxy S8 that is stuck at December 2017 security patch. The phone is un-tampered.
This is information taken from Phone Info App
Product Code: SM-G950FZKAROM
Original CSC: blank
Firmware CSC: blank
Active CSC: ROM
CSC Country: Romania / RO
Checking the CSC information in Settings > Software information under Service Provider SW ver. I get ROM/ROM/DBT
Current firmware: G950FXXU1AQL5/G950FOXM1AQL5/G950FUUX1AQL5
From my knowledge it seems I have a phone mean for the German market, with a German firmware build, that has CSC locked to Romania, the country where I purchased it.
I am not receiving any OTA updates. The Smart Switch application under Windows tells me I am at the latest software version.
Is there any way of getting updates the "legit" way?
I managed to tamper with the traffic Smart Switch generates and replaced the CSC code it sends to the update servers from ROM to DBT and somehow tricked it to fetch me and update (see image). Is it safe to apply this update?
