[Q] Can't update Samsung Galaxy Mini

Hey guys.
I bought a Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570 Black
and I realized it could be updated with the latest android firmware (Currently 2.2.1 (Froyo)) and wanted to update to 2.3.4 Gingerbread.
When I want to update it through Kies (Latest version) it says "This version of the device cannot be updated"
PDA: KB3 / PHONE: KB3 / CSC: KB3 (CHE)
BTW Im from Chile
How can I update it? =/
You can get 2.3.4 GB from samfirmware site and flash it with odin tool.
Thats the problem.
I don't wanna do that way.
I want the official one.
I know they are official but, I heard some problems with 3G and other stuff... so i rather get official so If it has any problem I can complain and not lose warranty
I was wondering why I can't update it?
you must wait for an official release for your zone/yuor customer.
keep checking with KIES .
Keep in mind when you check your phone for an official update your phone must be unrooted

[Q] Latest Galaxy S2 UK Generic Firmware

Hi folks, after reading these forums for the past few weeks I finally debranded my Vodafone SGS2. However, I have some questions.
1) What is the latest UK Generic firmware? I installed what I though was the latest UK XEU firmware, but the phone is now running Android 2.3.4 instead of the 2.3.5 version it had previously with the Vodafone firmware.
2) I was under the impression that after installing a stock generic firmware, I would be able to update OTA or with Kies. Is this wrong? I certainly cant get mine to update past 2.3.4
3) Can you please look at my details and see what i've done wrong?
Thanks in advance folks

Please help, I'm totally out of my depth here. I've read all the guides but cant find any definitive answers. All I want is an unbranded phone that is running the latest firmware and is upgradable via Kies.
I'd also like to know what the latest undranded UK S2 ROM is. I've just got one simfree from carphone warehouse and it's on 2.3.4. My friend has one on Orange network and he's on 2.3.5! Tried to update via KIES but says I'm on the latest version.
Thanks

GT-N8000 update question

Hello,
I've had my GT-N8000 since 2013 it has 3G option and is ulocked.
I remember when i got it it had a baseband N8000XXALI3, i remember cos I wrote it on the box! Back then it had the very first rom edition of 4.0 something and wanted to update the firmware but no updates were available at the time. I waited a couple of months and after that i flashed on it the german 4.1.2 stock rom using Odin. My Tablet is unlocked so all went well and it still runs very well. It's not rooted.
Currently my tablet has the following info:
AP: N8000XXCMA1
CP: N8000XXCLL1
CSC: N8000XACMA1
Now when looking for updates, none show up on OTA or KIES, and i really need to update to the latest official rom which as I understand is 4.4 but I don't know which file to download. Can you help me? Anything I need to do before that? Backup a Nand or EFS? I don't really know what those are!
Any advice on which rom to use and keep the s-pen functionality and 3G? Are there any new roms for marshmallow?
Thank you kindly in advance.

Baseband is modem not firmware .
Thank you for replying,
I have already went to that page and I wanted to make sure which rom to download, there are many 4.4.2 but none of them are for my country. And to tell you the truth, this tablet was offered to me as a gift back then from overseas and I'm not sure of its country of origin. I there a way to know that?
So I'm not sure which rom to download and flash without messing something up!
Sorry for the noob questions, the more details you can provide will be appreciated. And thanks again.
Download for your location/network/model.
Sent from my SM-N930F using XDA-Developers Legacy app
My device is unlocked as in not bound to a cell carrier and neither my location nor my provider are available in that list of roms.
In that case what's the best option?
Thank you kindly.
