Hi Guys,
I am updating my SGR for the first time, I had some queries, so if some one would answer, I would be really thankful.
Official ICS update is not for my country, so how should I take backup so that I don't lose my warranty.
Also which version of ICS is better, Nordic one or Austria or anyother country?
Also can you please help me with how to update like which software to use to install ICS, like someone was saying odin and others?
Thanks, Your help will be greatly appreciated

Buddy, A Very Warm Welcome to our Forum. For your queries Here is the answers:
1) Official ICS update is not for my country, so how should I take backup so that I don't lose my warranty.
A: ICS is announced to world by Samsung, so flash this wont loose any warranty but yes, rooting may be.
So, If you would flash Official ICS from Sammobile then no need to worry
2) Also can you please help me with how to update like which software to use to install ICS, like someone was saying odin and others?
A: you can install it using ODIN 3.07V - here is the procedure: Click Here for everything you need
3) Also which version of ICS is better, Nordic one or Austria or anyother country?
Approx, all versions are same except bloatwares providing by them. Few might be extra features then flash the latest one.
In the last, We have Q/A thread it doesn't mean every 2nd thread would be asking HOW to or From Where I can flash ICS.
Use Search option in thread. Coz every question you have asked, already been resolved earlier. There need to search only. Lil bit time taken, but good for our forum.
Thanks Kataria and Nilesh, So if I just update the firmware, I wont be losing any warranty.

Better Take CWM backup before updating to ICS, So if you have problem then you can revert back to GB easily.....

Yes...
mj is right...
there are cases when you downgrade..you tend to stuck on boot loop or on Samsung screen..
so the best way to downgrade is simply restore your cwm backup and then reflash the stock firmware..
Thanks MJ and Vipul
Can someone please provide the link of how to backup using CWN?
Do I need to root to backup using CWN?

Flash CWM first and take backup, Root is not required for it....
Download any version of CWM from the below link and flash it using ODIN.

Hi, What should I add to pda section?
CWM: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?u98qal9rxwwvud0 (or)
ODIN: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?50bkbbtblok3b02
ODIN ie pda section always takes .tar file.
Thnx!
Thanks, Actually It was not moving forward so I disconnected and now phone is not opening up, Should the tar file be the one of ICS nearly about 650 mb for galaxy R

When you've reached 10 posts, just ask you're question there : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2107775
BTW, if you flash (downgrade or not), flash directly for a rooted rom.

Hi, sorry if I shouldn't have created this thread..I just don't know where else to look for help.
I have had a very stressful afternoon reading about radio's and baseband versions. I have confused myself even more.
Basically I bought a Nexus S from a UK second hand store, I can't remember what the baseband was when I bought it. (Sorry)
I then proceeded to root the phone and flash a copy of Hellybean. I then instantly had signal issues and was never able to use 3g.
The highest connection I get is GPRS. Mt carrier is 02 if that is any help.... I then flashed a copy of CM to see if that changed anything, no luck!
The model of my phone behind the battery reads GTI9020. The baseband in the about phone section reads I9020AUCKF1.
Is this the correct baseband for my model or should I flash another?
Any help is much appreciated..thanks
Nick

Think he means a screenshot of the message that appears on screen.
Normal practice is to give as much info as possible eg are u rooted? Do you have a custom rom ? Etc etc otherwise it's just a guessing game for everyone on here
You say your on hboot 2.2.2 so I am assuming your android version is 4.3 stock .
If when you click on check for updates and it says "no update available" then there is no update available! As it hasn't been pushed to your device yet by your service provider.Are you on about sense6? If so I don't no anyone that's had the official update yet. You can get sense 6 from here if you are rooted.
If when you click check for updates and it says ther is, but you can't download. Then that is a different story.
It's all just a guess without info
