If you don't want to wait, the Vodacom ICS update can be downloaded on Samfirmware or through CheckFus downloader, then flashed with Odin. (And the MTN update is now showing up on Checkfus, but my download keeps failing. It's not on Samfirmware yet).
Does anyone know if there is a cf-root for XFA XWLP7 yet, or if the method suggested by Rachmat3 works with XFA? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719
Just look for the LP7 Kernel under chainfires thread. Its not specific for XFA. In the thread look for XW...LP7.

Hey guys. I have a Sgs2 unlocked. It ain't a contract phone, received ICS OTA update IN April but the MTN said I couldn't use Google play store. I rooted and bow running a custom ROM, so I wanna know if the released network versions are now working well and any links where I can download them.
Thanks

ICS Update for S2 in South Africa
Finally managed to update my S2 through OTA in South Africa, am on an MTN contract although I do use a Vodacom sim inside of it so I guess thats not a problem
I made a new thread with screenshots of how the official ICS from Samsung looks on the S2.
Check this out for further information and screenshots
Since am a new member XDA doesn't allow me to put in links so hope XDA won't mind this;
Please replace the spaces with dots (.)

Follow the advise by JacquesR, download the stock SA ICS firmware from Samfirmware.
And Yes Playstore works fine.

After waiting and waiting after i read your post and still no update via MTN on Kies last weekend, i decided to flash SlimICS instead 5 days ago, and man i must say, what a breath of fresh air, no more fugly Touchwizz, no more bloated Samsung stock apps. Everything is running as smooth as silk for me.
Anyway, thanks, without this post i probably wouldn't have flashed my phone over to SlimICS.

For whoever might be interested.
It is available since yesterday Sept.12th an OTA update to 3110 GTAB 2 7.0
Can be found on Sammobile firmwares. Select appropriate Type, OS, model, and select "To 10 latest" on the country list.
Scroll all the way down to "OTA FILES" section of the page.
Haven't dowloaded nor tested yet, therefore cannot answer first impression questions.
Happy Flashing
Ottonet
I saw it but there is no country information.
Have you tryed it ?
I have not downloaded, nor tried yet.
Will probably not do that. Firmwares distributed as OTA on Sammobile are often preview, unstable versions, taht could be one reason why it has no country associated.
I shared this piece of information because an official kies release could be near, and I know that many of us are eagerly expecting JellyBean on our tablet.

It is.
Actually, it isn't. Hmmmm
OTA what does not have country in the list contain next regions: BTU, DBT, ITV, KOR, XEF, XEO, XEU (It is can be applied as well on the 4.0.4 BTU, tested by me )
Also there published OTA for Malaysia which contain these regions: GLB,MM1,SIN,SMA,STH,THL,XEV,XME,XSE,XSP,XTC,XTE,XXV
This leak need the P3110XXBLH2 PDA version.
And I see that for France the latest firmware is P3110XWBLI1.
But there is another leak on samfirmware that will install a P3110XXBLH2 PDA version. But it need the original stock firmware without any update even official ...
It looks weird to me.
What do you think about ?
What firmware must I install to install the leak and have jelly bean ?
Thank you.

This one will be enough for applying 4.1.1 OTA
I did it.
I've got Jelly Bean on my tab.
Thank you.
But I think there is a problem somewhere ... when I watch the properties of my tablet it show me GT-P3100 !
I've got a P3110 and I have used the P3110 Rom you recommend me and the OTA update for the 3110 ...
How this is possible ?
Have you notice the same thing ?

I guess that this release is directly derived from the OTA Firmware for the P3100 Tablet, which was released some days ago and is told to run perfectly also on P3110 models.
In fact, what I believe is that this is a test made purposedly with the intent of allowing P3110 to get the P3110OXACLI or P3110OXACLI3 pda's over the air.
The version number you see in the device properties screen is taken from the ro.build.PDA key in the "build.prop" file which is distributed along with every ROM.
No doubts that the final version will have this value updated to match the actual tablet model.
flashing now ...

what about this firmware
N7100XXDMF2 N7100DXDMF1 N7100OLBDMD2 06.2013 XME Malaysia 4.1.2
Same Changelist?
I uploaded it but doesn't worth to keep it then.
Just flashed it yesterday and that new radio seems to fix silent calls and overall voice calls quality for Polish provider Play.
Installed yesterday, and seems more smooth than ever ... less memory used after the reboot (~ 43 mb ) ... this device is really amazing !
I really don t care 4.2.x if remains with this kind of performance
Installed since yesterday,no significant differences with DME1(TH) i used before.When android 4.2.2?
Updated this morning from MC3 (DBT) through Kies (lost root as usual and CF-Auto-Rooted and Triangle Awayed again). Haven't noticed any change so far apart apart from *maybe* (too soon to tell) lower battery drain.
Didn't have any real problem before which needed fixing anyway (aside from the small YouTube annoyance).
Which one should I update, me or mf ? I am on lk7 which is quite an old one

Hello everyone. I have the GS4 i9505. Got it used from a guy in Saudi Arabia. Great condition. Android 4.2.2. What I didn't notice was, that it was actually a swiss version (I'm in Saudi Arabia) When I switch it on/off, the message from the swiss carrier 'Swisscom' is displayed. It is unlocked, so I didn't think much of it.
Only now, when everyone's got 4.4.2 I'm starting to get worried. Don't have an update available through OTA or KIES. Is this normal? Are android updates country specific? What can be done?
Hi. You're correct. One of the most annoying things about samsung is that they roll out region specific updates. As far as I know, your region ( csc code : AUT ) hasn't received any updates. You can either wait until an update is released for the Switzerland region, or you can flash a kitkat rom via odin.
If you're interested in flashing, see this thread for instructions.
I wish my other s4 has 4.2 swiss rom on it, instead of 4.3 knox/0x1.
Do a bit of reading and youll see exactly what I mean.
Bootloader/unable to downgrade
Knox
Warranty void
Hello, Im new to this forum and hope not violating any rules..
I just bought Galaxy S4 i9500 and has stock 4.2.2 installed. Cant update to kitkat neither with settings, nor with KIES 2.6/3.
Kies 2.6 says " Your Device's Current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via Kies. " (see attch)
I'm total newbie with these CSC codes and nor googling helped me out with all my questions:
How to make CSC and phone sales codes match safely without flashing official rom?
I bought AFR version S4 designed for Kenya in republic of Georgia (Asia/Europe). There is no firmware designed for Georgia. So does this mean I will never be able to obtain updates OTA or via Kies?
Phone INFO and such apps didnt work coz it couldnt find "preconfig" file.. Does this mean flashing is the only way? Which websites are good for official stock firmwares?

Hello, Im new to this forum and hope not violating any rules..
I just bought Galaxy S4 i9500 and has stock 4.2.2 installed. Cant update to kitkat neither with settings, nor with KIES 2.6/3.
My BB number is : I9500XXUBMG9
Here is my question..
1) Will this baseband region phone ever receive OTA update?
2) if NOT, then should i use services that samfirmware.com offers?
if YES, then can i install official firmware originally created for another baseband? For example can i use Russian I9500XXUGNG3 kitkat on my I9500XXUBMG9 ?
Doesnt it void waranty?
What are the risks of bricking? i mean basebands differ from each other, isnt that problem?
Also Im dissapointed with 2G call voice, sometimes i barely hear caller.. Can this be Baseband problem? I think this bmg9 baseband was originally for IRAQ carriers and im here in Georgia, which doesnt have specific baseband i guess...
I would be extremely grateful to those who answer me in this hard time ^^

Hi mate ,
First thing if you are in 4.2.2 is a shame to upgrade the bootloader..is Knox free
Your official updates most like it are blocked because you do not have the right CSC , download a nice little app from the market call PHONE INFO there it will tell you what your CSC is , this app can also change your CSC as long as it is available in the rom ( if you do backup first changing the CSC will do a factory reset)
Regarding your questions
1 OTA are CSC dependent
2 Samfirmware is good , and reliable you can go that way also
Second part of your questions
1 you can flash firmware for other countries , that is not a problem , BUT you may have problem with what languages are available , specific country services may not be available , no OTA
2 As long as you only flash stock rom (odin) you will not void the warranty
3 Briking is always a risk but when flashing not for different basebands
4 Maybe , for sure the right baseband would help

If I change CSC code to USA will I get OTA updates as soon as USA citizens get it? Doesnt it depend that im outside of USA?
Is there any cons for changing CSC?
My country, is not listed in CSC codes.. Is there a way i can always get OTA updates?

Hi,
A knox free bootloader is important if warranty some how is important for you , other wise there are the same
Regarding your first set of questions
1 Not an expert on kies but as long as all the csc inpho match it should , unless there is an issue with kies registration or IP
2 CSC give you country specifics network set ups , differnt countries have different set ups , fastdormancy , special services.......
3 you need to flash a stock rom from your country or region
Yes flashing firmware may change the csc code.
