[Q] Keys: your device's current firmware version is not supported to update via kies

My phone is unrooted (and with the original ROM).
After installing Keys I get the message:
"Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update via Kies"
* Current firmware version: PDA|:LJ3 / PHONE:LJ2 / CSC: LJ2 (ILO)
If I select Tools->"Firmware Upgrade and Initialization", I get the message:
`GT-N7100' does not support initializing.
Any ideas?, thanks

Look here http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-N7100&pcode=ILO&os=1&type=1#firmware, if you have that firmware (N7100XXALIH) you have the correct version. If you don`t flash it with Odin. You have the wrong software atm for Kies support.

I have the exact same problem as amirdt.
My phone (Samsung Galaxy Note 2) runs the stock rom it came with. I haven't rooted the device since it works perfectly with the stock ROM, but once connected to Kies, I get following:
Firmware information:
Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via Kies.
Current firmware version:
PDA:LJ3 / PHONE:LJ2 / CSC:LJ4 (XXX) (What does the XXX stand for?)
Build number
N7100XXALJ3
Reading gee2012's reply above, I visited the site that was linked in the post and did a search on GT-7100. Found me a long list of frimwares. All of them were Android 4.1.1, except one:
GT-N7100 - Open Europe
PDA: N7100XXDLJ2
CSC: N7100OXADLJ2
Version: 4.1.2
Date: 2012-10-29
Regions: Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom
And this is pretty much where my knowledge comes to an end.
I find 64 matches for my current build and one for the 4.1.2 (listed above).
I don't understand why Kies is giving me the error message about my firmware not being supported
I don't know whether I am eligible to update my phone to Jellybean 4.1.2. Kies is a no-go because of the error message. If I try to select Tools -> Firmware Upgrade and Initialization, I get the error "GT-N7100 does not support initializing".
If I try the "software update" check on my phone, it says "Latest updates have already been installed". I don't know what to do or believe on this one.
I'm kind of confused. I can't determine whether my phone is up to date and working as intended or if there is really something that is not right with the firmware. Should I be able to upgrade to Android 4.1.2?
I'm sorry for many questions, but right now I am both out of ideas and knowledge. If someone smarter than me could provide me some support/answers on this one, I'd be most happy. I use my phone a lot and it's my primary tool when on the field.

2 things:
1. If you want to update with Kies and receive OTA updates you need to flash the firmware that is specific for your country/region
2. If you want to flash the latest firmware like 4.1.2 you can flash any firmware with Odin but you cannot use Kies/OTA`s anymore.
This will also change the CSC file.

Thank you for a quick reply, gee2012.
I prefer to keep things as simple as possible without too much in-depth technical tweaking. Your answers confused me even more.
1. I have very little to no clue how to figure out what my firmware would be (Sweden - and there seem to be several of them), even less to determine which one it would be the right one.
2. I don't know whether to trust Kies or the "software update" in "About device". Kies reports an error, the software update says that all of the latest updates are already installed. Does this mean that OTA updates should work?
I'm sorry for asking more questions. What I would need a is a definite step-by-step guide how to fix these kinds of problems.

Check on www.sammobile.com/firmware for the latest firmware for your country/region. If that version is not identical to the version that is on your phone Kies and OTA`s will not work. In that case you need to download and flash that firmware from the Sammobile website. That`s it mate. You can check your firmware in the phone dialpad by pressing *#1234#.

Once again, thank you for your reply and guidance. I think things might become a bit interesting now:
GT-N7100 Nordic countries 2012 October Android 4.1.1 N7100XXALJ3 N7100OXXALJ4
The PDA=N7100XXALJ3 (displayed as "AP" when I did that dialpad trick you mentioned, and shows up as the build number in "About device") and CSC=N7100OXXALJ4. To me it looks like a match and also be the latest firmware for my country/region. If this is correct, then Kies and OTA should work? Kies still reports the same error about the firmware, but the software update option on the phone reports that latest updates have already been installed.
Does this indicate that the phone is working fine as is OTA, but Kies is not?

I also have this problem, I went from Omega rom back to stock through Kies recovery procedure. Now when I check it says the exact same thing
"Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update via Kies" Homw is this possible?
Thx

Hi. I'm new to this forum. Hope someone can help me or at least give light to the situation.
I followed the first option. i downloaded the official stock rom from sammobile for country: Philippines and Provider: Globe. and i was able to successfully flash it. my phone now shows the correct Kernels, etc.
However, when i tried to connect my Samsung Galaxy S2, Kies still says:
Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via Kies.
- Current firmware version: PDA:LPF / PHONE:LPB / CSC:LPF (COA)
not sure if this is because this isn't the correct firmware for my phone, country and provider or if kies shows this error because the phone, which is a Samsung S2 I9100 is still not elligible to upgrade to JellyBean since Samsung still hasn't rolled out the Jelly Bean update for S2 yet. If it is the former, what should i do?
Hope the experts here can help me or clarify matters. Thanks in advance you guys.

Guys, same problem here.
Phone's ROM seems to be (as far as I can tell from Samfirmware) a Hong Kong/Phillipines version and to receive updates, from the guidance above, it seems I will have to flash UK stock ROM. On Samfirmware there does not appear to be a ROM for my carrier (Orange/EE) though the phone was bought unbranded, not through them. Couple of questions if anyone can help:
- So long as I flash a ROM for the right region, is it necessary to have the right carrier's ROM?
- Does anyone know if 4.1.2 is actually being distributed in the UK?
- I can swap SIM to O2 temporarily (There is an O2 ROM on Samfirmware). I presume if there is a uk (O2) update I could install their 4.1.1 stock, install the 4.1.2 update and the unlock the phone? Any problems with this?
Any help much appreciated.
(N7100 - Galaxy Note 2.)
SORTED! Flashed latest stock ROM from Samfirmware which is 4.1.1 (o2 UK) and multitasking features all working. Kies still says it won't update the phone. Phone says latest updates installed but as far as I can tell that's because 4.1.2 isn't out yet. Not particularly a problem now though. Will just flash latest stock when it comes available.

Unable to update Version 4.1.2

Hi all, hope someone can help me out here.

I have heard others having similar problems if they have modified their phone in any way.
On your phone go to Settings > About device > Status > Device status. What does this show? Is it Modified ?

I am sure you can but you will need to download the official stock ROM for your handset and flash again using ODIN. Best check with people who are more 'in the know' on here though first.
Samsung are making it harder for us people messing around with their phones.

I have the same problem. The OTA update didn't roll out on my phone yet and Samsung Kies tells me I have the latest version. However, my device status says normal and I've checked my flash counter on Download Mode and it said no. (Bought this Note 2 second handedly so I didn't know if the previous owner had rooted this device.)

Thanks for the info, may be I should try to roll back the stock ROM by ODIN and see if I can get the update.
Thank you all.
Regards,

you don't have update because there is no update for your CSC (for now).
Check your CSC to be 100% sure (not csc from *#1234# ,but csc that is showing this app:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manniakk.cscselector&hl=pl )

There is no update for my CSC either but the original poster has the same problem as mine where it keeps checking and does not respond. It should let you know if there is an update or not. In the OP's case that does not happen.

My way to solve this problem:
After rooted and reseting counter with triangle away,
After that, make a full wipe data in recovery mode. (so, make a backup up)
Now in status, check device status. It shoud be 'normal' and you can now check update

I have same issue. Not really looking forward to .2 but have tried. Totally stock and did .1 update last night a couple hours after I got it. I am putting my phone through benchmarks first before I start doing any mods.

the first that you should know if it is a 4.1.2 rom in you country/mobile company. Some companies have a slooooow development.
If there is check kies. there is an option (I cant remember what it says esactly) which makes you write your model name and your serial. This update the device to the latest update in theory skipping this check for modifications. It will make a factori reset in your phone so backup important files.
The most important thing is to check the antivirus and the firewall it is known that sometimes it deny the acces to check OTAs
hope it have been useful for U!

Thank you very much!
I talked to Samsung Norway and they said the update was avaible. I then told them it wasnt working, and their solution was... wait for it... return the phone...
After your post I trailed the forum, found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2088809
It worked like a charm. It downloaded the update, put in on the phone, and it even didnt erase ANY of my settings while updating. It booted up, and there it was, an updated verion with all my apps and setting.
Thank you very much, once again!

Firmware Upgrade
I am unfortunately having problems updating my N7100 also. I am a bit perplexed and dont know what I have done wrong if anything.
First off my phone is not rooted at the moment and as far as I can tell was never rooted (bought brand new / device status shows normal). Here are the steps that I used:
1. Downloaded KIES onto macbook.
2. Attached phone via usb cable.
3. Followed on screen instructions for firmware update. Took about 10 min to do its thing.
4. Phone rebooted automatically and applied upgrade.
After all was complete my android version still shows 4.1.1
What the heck is wrong? I saw the upgrade taking place (I guess it was upgrading).
Now when I am attached via KIES it shows:
Current Firmware version: PDA: LJ3 / PHONE: LJ2 / CSC: LJ2 (AFR)
Latest Firmware version : PDA: LJ3 / PHONE: LJ2 / CSC: LJ2 (AFR)
Can anyone please advise what is going on here please?
Thanks in advance,

[Q] Unable to update to 4.3

My device is GT-N7100 and I purchased it (8 months ago) from Samsung center.
My current firmware is 4.1.1 (see attached image)
4.3 is already available in my country which i checked on www.sammobile.com (see attached images)
The problem is that i don't get any notification to update software. Even if i manually try to do it by going into settings>about device>update software it still says "the latest update has already been installed".
Whereas, few of my other friends have already updated their devices though OTA without any problem.
Kindly guide me why i am not able to update my firmware through OTA?

Did you try to update with Kies ? Generally your first picture should have a last line which gives information of which country rom you have. Either picture is not seen fully or your Rom is not your country's rom(complicated sentence I know ) So if your ROM really have update Kies should see it but if your rom is an international rom or different country rom then OTA may not be possible through normal ways, you may have to use Odin.

Then manually flash the rom you want to use via ODIN.
If the answer is no, why have you posted this topic on XDA instead of your devices official support forum??

Thx a lot for the August security patch.

Quick question, it's been awhile since I flashed updates from recovery. My son is using my old Note 4 without a SIM, so these updates are my path to keeping him up to date on security. If I flash from recovery the two latest security updates (he's on June), I'll wipe his phone, right? Will ODIN for these zips avoiding wiping him, or do I just have to have him backup/restore first?

Odin will wipe everything, so you will need to backup first. Only way to save everything is by the incremental OTA updates

My N910A is a bit behind in updates it looks like. I've unboxed it and its on Android 5.1.1 with baseband version N910AUCU2DOI3, 3.10.40-5613584 kernel, patch level 2016-02-01.
What upgrade path should I take if I want to reach marshmallow? I'm not sure what can be skipped.

Use the Odin link, and that gets you within one or two updates. Let the phone cool for an hour between updates.

If we get an update it will be an I update (we're on h now), and it will have the blueborne Bluetooth bug fix.

Hey guys,
I'm currently on N910AUCU2EPK1 baseband version and would like to update to newer versions.
I've already dowloaded all the most recent ones except the S2EPK2 and S2EPK3 and therefore cannot install them since I would first need to download and install the S2EPK2 and S2EPK3.
The download pages are not working anymore.
would really appreciate if you could help me on this matter.
Thanks for all your support

Utmost Thanks!
From a very old (and annoying) member still clinging to his Note 4 with removable battery (on my third battery now) I thank you so much for keeping my AT&T updated here in the United Arab Emirates....

Verizon has released the latest Note 4 security patches. Hopefully att won't be too far behind. https://www.sammobile.com/2017/09/21/galaxy-note-4-blueborne-patch-released-verizon/
I still cannot find any files on the ATT server.. Verizon's update is U2CQI2. I've tried many variants to no avail. Att is generally slower with patches. This is a good sign though, that a patch should be in the works... If/when I find it, I'll post it.

We got to be hopefull. At&T has delayed September update for most phones.

just got a update from att N910AUCS2EQE1

Only updates given to att users, OTA (over the air), with att active service will preserve your data. Downloading and applying the update wipes your data. We've searched for a work around, to no avail. Sorry you lost your data. Without att service, we can't do anything else

This really needs to be more obvious in your OP.
Recommendation:
Official Aug security update Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow
SS-N910AUCS2EQG1-to-S2EQH1-UP.zip
>> THIS FILE FACTORY RESETS YOUR PHONE <<
Don't be ungrateful. If you download the file, hit "Thanks" below.

"Official Aug security update" gives no indication that it's going to wipe your phone. I have had to stop using this phone immediately and I'm going to end up paying a hardware engineer to remove the internal memory in a soldering oven and build a USB adapter for it so that I can recover the data that this "security update" formatted over.
Don't call something an "update" if it's a factory reset. This is bananas.

I feel terrible that you've lost important data. You'll notice the original update thread op never mentioned this either. We've probably taken this fact for granted
I've taken your suggestion and updated the op. to highlight this.
Always, always back up your data in multiple locations.
Good luck.

I just "thanked" this post and the OP. I appreciate what you're doing here. I'll figure this out, I'm resourceful!

Will i get OTA after odin firmware update.

I sideloaded android pi beta and stopped getting OTA update. Now that android pi has officially released i downloaded firmware from SamMobile. Will flashing the official pi update give me OTA updates.

I put the CSC_OMC instead of HOME_CSC. Which wipes everything.

You should if you used CSC
Check in Settings > About phone > Software Information > Service Provider SW ver.
If it says the same CSC for the first 2 you will get OTAs for that CSC
For example mine is XEU/XEU/O2U
I will get OTA for XEU
