[Q] Kies Upgrade Not Possible after Galaxy SII Unrooting

I Have a problem, if anyone can help It's massively appreciated!
I rooted my phone & installed Resurrection ROM 9.6 (Rom taken from XDA thread). But in Sir Lanka i had a issue with connecting to Mobile internet & I'm a heavy user of phone so i had to go for a stable rom! So i decided to go with Stock rom & unroot the device. After unrooting when i connect to Kies it says "your device does not support sotware upgrading via kies".
Before all of this kies worked fine by the way!
My model no: i9100xwki8 (bought it when i was out of country)
Kies now shows, under current firmware version): I9100XWKI8/I9100KEKI2/I9100XXKI4/I9100XWKI8 (SEK)
Have i done something wrong?
Can this be fixed?
How can i fix this?
What should i do to stick with stock rom upgrade via kies?
I only did rooting from Odin & CWM; unrooting done from source i got in

I can't post on above mentioned thread because i still didn't reach 10 post threshold!
Someone please please help!

I'd try reinstalling the drivers and reinstalling kies and see if that works...personally I think kies is useless, what specifically do you need kies for?

Hey, good thing for you is that the screen you are describing IS normal download mode. With the 2.3.6 update came an update to the way download mode looks and works. That custom download binary:NO just means that you haven't loaded any custom binaries to the phone (you're on the stock one), and where it says current binary, it lists which version you are on: in this case, official Samsung.
Nothing is wrong, and all is as it should be.

Thanks a million. I was worried for bit. I have an other question that hopefully you can help me out with. I have been trying to use odin and superoneclick since I updated to 2.3.6 and I can't get the phone to work with either odin or superoneclick. It worked fine with both programs before the update. I really wanna root the phone but haven't been able to. Hope you or anyone can help me out.

seems like SOC doesnt work with the official update
and try re installing drivers or using different USB ports on PC before giving up
try each at least 3 times and make sure you are not using a hub or anything
and you have a direct USB connection
Heimdall and Odin get picky sometimes

As jayRokk says, uninstall your Samsung drivers and Kies installation in Control Panel / Programs and Features (or Add Remove Programs). Reinstall Kies to be sure that your drivers are installed correctly (This is for Odin, to get drivers for Heimdall you have to use the zadig program that comes with Heimdall to install a different driver on one specific port.).
Then, you might want to try this Odin package that I put together to make it easy to get stock AT&T Gingerbread with root.:

[Q] i cannot boot up since i flash the room

i cannot boot up after flashing the new room of (ics 4.0.4 6/1)
Just hangs at Google screen
the room is from this web of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672010&page=5

You need to use Odin or whatever that Samsung jazz is and reflash it. Sounds like you messed up somewhere. Next time post in the Rom thread or your own phone section. You'll get a better and faster response.

Do This

Bro, I had the exact same issue. What you need to do is go back to gingerbread using Kies. Once you have done that then you can root using Odin and then once you have root, stick the rom on your sd card and flash it through your phone. It is however important to note that while using Odin, make absolutely sure Kies is not running. Kies and Odin do not like each other at all and can cause devastating interactions. Just uninstall Kies before you use Odin and then restart your pc. Also, once you have your custom rom on you need to delete all the old drivers for your samsung usb. Then reboot your pc, download new samsung drivers, install them and reboot again. You should be good to go then. The drivers can come in a package with samsung kies, so unfortunately you need to reinstall kies again to get those drivers(Samsung USB Composite Device Drivers). Anyways bro, it is not that complicated once you manage to get the new rom on your phone and you will be glad you did it. I know I was, it took me a week but I finally did it. Hope that helps bro, good luck. And do not stress, our phones are really hard to brick once you get rid of samsung nonsense.
