Hello i just bought this phone and i know it is rooted.How to check what rom does it have.It asks me for a update ( im on 4.1.2) what version will it update me too? And will i lose root? All answers apreciated. Thx
Bro,this is the development section so you shouldn't have created a specific thread asking any question,the Q & A section is meant for that.
Anyway the answer your queries:
You can find the name of rom/android version in the 'about device' section of settings.
The update may be a maintenance update.Also the update depends on your region/country.As the latest official firmware for note 2 is 4.1.2 so it will remain that only.
Also you advised not to update a rooted phone,it may mess it up and you may lose root.It would be good if you stick with the current firmware or download the latest from XDA,flash it,then root it or find a prerooted one.

Just click on that...and it will load a page with Samsung agreements about software updating....and there will be a check box to tick that you agree....Once you tick it and proceed ..it'll look for updates...and itll say ..can't update because your device is modified...and nd that's it...The update icon won't appear on your status bar again. ..hope this helps

Hi,
I purchased Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100 from US. Now I am in India and my friends have updated their S2 to ICS but whenever I am conecting my phone via Kies it says that latest software is installed on my phone.
Details are:
PDA: I9100UHKI2
Phone: I9100UHKI1
CSC: I9100UUBKI2
Android Version - 2.3.4
Build Number - GINGERBREAD.UHKI2
Please senior member help me.
I don't want to root my phone.
Thanks in advance.
Flash new firmware via Odin.
did you check the SGS2 forum? I just quickly checked there and it seems like there is alot of stuff going on there. I would check out that board first of all. If it is available that is where you will find the odin package for stock ICS and if you dont already know it is basically the same thing as using kies. If you find a stock package that is. Or you can also do other things too. And if it is not available I would post this question in that board where people know that specific device. Good luck
I non Kies, nor your phone says there is a new version, it may not be officially available on your phone network/location/phone type.
Could be available in a few weeks.
You can alternatively fresh the rom via Odin, but I haven't found a good rom for that so far.
I have s2, and I regret that I upgraded to this new 4.03. I'm experiencing random crashes since (I'm wondering they put the new "restart phone" option to the menu for this reason? D), and the battery time is much worse.

Please let me know from where I can get the odin package for stock ICS
Stock ROM u can find here:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
Register there, then write in search box "i9100", choose ROM for your region/country, download and flash into phone with ODIN.
FAQ how to do this u can find in SGS2 section on this forum.

Hi. Dont jump on me for those questions but couldnt find anything here on xda nor google helped me.
So here it is.
Just bought my Note 8. GT-N5110. It has Android 4.1.2 and build version JZO54K.N5110XXBMD1. Not rooted
As I know 4.2.2 is available I wanted to update. But OTA says I am up to date.
I tried then Kies. I have all the drivers uptodate and Kies version uptodate as well. When I connect my Note it is recognized but it seems that Kies doesnt read everything what it should.
It doesnt show the firmware version at all.
When I am trying to check for firmware updates all I get is mssg:
GT-N5110 does not support initialising.
I also tried sammobile. But cuz I couldnt determine which version of Note 8 I have and didnt know which firmware to pick up and installed their apk.
It should check for me everything but I am getting only
Model GT-N5110
Product code. - nothing
PDA N5110XXBMD1
CSC N5110CCBMD1
Modem - nothing
After hitting GET LATEST receiving only mssg - No info foun for the provided firmware.
So my questions are:
- How can I determine is the firmware update available for my Note or not yet?
- How can I determine which version of Note do I have? I bought it on amazon.co.uk so I think it is European version but are there country specific version as well for WIFI only model?
- Which firmware should I download from sammobile to stay "legal" lets say. UK? Dont want to root at the moment.
Any help really appreciated.
cheers

Hi.
I have the same version. (Settings, System, About (or something like that at the bottom) and then in the buildnumber there is the version.
Mine is rooted so i can't do OTA and it doesn't find an update.
I guess since there isn't any 4.2.2 version on sammobile, there doesnt exist any yet for our build.
Greetings
Chris
Thanks for that.
Decided to root so wont worry anymore about OTA or KIES updates.
Cheers

From this link you can get to know about the latest available firmware for your device Model & Product Code. See image 1.
And this link will give you info about all the firmware released for the same. See image 2.
Is the tablet you bought is a used one? Because if it is brand new, then the PDA should be N5110XXBMC9, which is the first release. Also missing Product code can mean something very wrong.

Isn't there anlther field which says modelnumber? Over Android-Version
Hello, I would like to be able to get Sony's Firmware updates, basically to fix an audio Bug. My carrier told me they would not release that update, or any at all, however I really need it. Plus, I would like to get those new features that Sony offers and Android Lollipop when available.
The thing is my Z1 Compact is not allowed to Unlock the Bootloader, although when I connect it to the PC while pressing Volume Up, the LED turns blue, which means it's Unlockable, as I read somewhere.
So , I hope you can help me with this: What do I need to get Sony's firmware update in my not unlockable Z1 Compact?
Thanks in advance.
Firmware installed: 14.3.A.0.681 (Android 4.4.2 KitKat)
You don't need to have unlocked bootloader to do a update. Download latest firmware and flash via flashtool how to flash rooms is describe in general section In first thread you need your phone flashtool rom and knowledge how to flash firmwares as I mention in general section is everything to do that. Bootloader unlock is necessary when you want to flash cm or aosp or kernel other than stock
Thank you!
Hello, Wrocław.
Thank you so much for your answer! It's been very helpful.
One last question: The firmware I will download, does it need to be for my country/carrier? Because I have my carrier's latest firmware installed and they said the won't release any other update for the z1 compact... So, is it enough to get the same language firmware (spanish)? Or does it need to be for my specific country (Perú)?
Thanks again!

If you are keen to get the latest firmware and baseband then you should head over to IaguCool' s thread on Xperia Firmware Downloader & Checker. Follow the instructuions there. You will need a copy of Flashtool and it'd be good to read the thread on 'how to' as all the instructions are there, rather than jump to the last page and ask, which is what everybody does.
This will deliver you the latest stock build for your area/service priovider, bootlocked and not rooted, so what you do with it after that is up to you?
Thanks, Didgesteve!
I've got the latest firmware release by the carrier for my country installed, the bad part is that's not the latest firware available for Z1C, so I wanted to know if there is a problem if I install a firmware for other country/service. Will I still be able to make calls, text, etc?
Thank you for the link! However, IaguCool' s Xperifirm stopts working whenever I select a region/carrier firmware :/

yes, you can install any firmware, it will always start with choosing the language you want to use and just follow the setup guide.
If Xperiafirm stops working after it has opened, then it is being blocked by firewall, or you didn't install Java
I was searching official sources and came across an official Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow update for my SM-T805W RWC Rogers tablet, and so I was wondering if anyone in Canada who is currently unrooted with official stock recovery has received an update via "Settings -> General -> About Device -> Software Update" for it yet?
Thx
Anyone?

Cheers.
Thanks Manny are u rooted or have a non-stock recovery installed? If so, you won't see any updates via Settings.
