Kies Update - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. I have the i9505 and my CSC is BTU. When I check on Sammobile if there is an update, it shows that the latest is XXUFNC4 which is available by Kies. But when I run Kies, it says my phone has the lastest update at XXUFNB8. Any idea why i'm not receiving the new update?
Thanks!

Download stock ROM at Sammobile.com and flash via Odin

[Q] Kies doesnt recognise my S3 Firmware

Hi
Ever since I have updated my S3 with Odin I am having trouble with Kies. I can not update with kies and when I connect my phone and go to update section it says "Your current Devices Firmware version is not supported to update firmware via Kies".
So I know what the crack is about that Product code and CSC have to match blah blah blah.
Soo what I would like to ask for is help finding firmware that will match my S3 so it will be up datable through kies again.
My S3 was bough in the UK in Phones4U and service provider is Vodafone. But it never was branded or bloated with Vodafone apps so I am guessing that I have had a BTU unbranded firmware and as I read on other forum Phones4U sell phones with UK BTU Firmware.
My current Firmware is PDA:MK6 / PHONE:MK6 / CSC MK6 (KOR) Baseband - I9300XXUGMK6 / BUILD - JSS15.I9300XXUGMK6/ KERNEL - 3.0.31-2168382 4.3 jellybean
Before I always downloaded UK BTU Firmwares and none of them were not supported with kies.
Also my binary count is 1 after downloading and flashing 4.2.2 which was supposed to be official but wasn't but I am not sure if it affects kies updates or not.
So what Firmware will be compatible with my S3 so its supported with kies? Please help and ask for any additional information about my phone if it will help.

Your CSC is Korea CSC MK6 (KOR)

use sammobile.com and flash chosen firmware for the UK via odin. After that check your csc.
And you should update to kies 3 to recognise your 4.3 rom

Hi the info about my current CSC is from the KIES when i connect my phone to the PC. Does it mean that my phones CSC is Korean or that the Firmware I currently is Korean?
I bought my phone in he UK so i think it should be BTU shouldn't it ?
Also uglyjohnny I have downloaded kies3 but I still get the same message about my firmware but thank you for help.
Also I have use sammobile.com to download my firmware and it was UK firmware i downloaded every time.
Pleas read the faqs and guides CSC etc .
Change CSC i believe is what you want not that i ever use Kies to be 100% .
Kies Emergency Recovery post may help.

Hello,
I have a Galaxy S4 with adroid 4.3 and CSC from NEE (Nordic Countries) but I'm living in Spain. I'm wondering if I'm going to get updates via OTA or Kies to 4.4.2. If I try to search for updates in Kies or OTA it says that I have the lastest firmware uptade.
Thanks you!

Problem is that you have wrong baseband for that OTA/KIES tell you have the latest updates.
Steps to follow:
1. Dont use Kies.
2. Use Kies 3 for know ur CSC. In your case its NEE (if its correct).
3. Go HERE for download the latest firmware for ur phone.
4. Flash it through ODIN.
5. When u finish the process of flashing and your system start again, dial *#1234# and have to appear this:
AP: I9505XXUFNB9
CP: I9505XXUFNB9
CSC: I9505NEEFNB2
6. Reflash the firmware if you dont have what appears in the step 5.
7. You will receive the OTA updates now. Good luck :highfive:
Ok thanks you very much!

[Q] Wich firware is the good one ?

Hi,
For a couple of days my Galaxy S5 XEF SM-G900F tells me there's and update for the firmware. As my phone was rooted no FOTA were possible so I uninstalled the root. Still no way tu update from OTA.
I tried Kies, but it always stop at 19% (tried on 2 different computers). So ok, back to the only one method that always works : ODIN BUT
Kies tells me that the available version is DA: OC7/CSC: OC2/PHONE: OC7
On sammobile, the only one firmware that has a csc: OC2 is the one for a specific carrier (Bouygues) . Which one should I download and flash to be up to date please ?
Thanks in advance for your help

My S4 wont update pls help

I had s4(4.4.2) rooted now I have completely removed the root by flashing stock firmware which I got from this post. I downloaded the turkey 4.4.2 listed under GT-I9500 firmwares although I am in india. Now when I try to update trough settings > software update, I I get msg "The latest updates have already been installed.". So is it happening because I flashed turkey's firmware, pls help me how to get lollipop update.
Flash India (INU) or India (INS) firmware. Either should work, but using the INS CSC is probably best, as that apparently is for unlocked devices. The reason you're not getting an update is the phone is not in the same region as the firmware installed on it.
Stock firmware for the gt-i9500 is here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/GT-I9500/INS/
@audit13: Already covered that.
My bad, I didn't click on the links
