ICS update for Galaxy S2 via Kies now Working. - Android General

Hi all,
I am new to this forum and i am really expecting some help from you guys.
Samsung recently launched ICS update for galaxy S2 in INDIA and i have been trying to update my phone via Kies but every time when kies is done with all the downloads and this screen called "Downloading...Do not turn off the Target" comes on the phone the phone gets disconnected and Kies gives the message that it cant detect the phone and i should remove battery and restart, whereas phone get stucks at that same Downloading message screen.This problem comes over and over again and everytime i restart my phone it starts normally with my 2.3.6 firmware.
What can be the possible cause and solution for this?

Hey
1 of all....Kies damn sucks
I think you should go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ and search for I9100
scroll down and take the ics 4.0.3 for india
Flash it via odin and it should work
if you dont have any experience with odin search here in teh xda for an tutorial
Tell me if it worked

Jaaap :/

Ok I have the same problem. Only I checked the performance monitor for network activity, and there's a process; kiespdlr.exe that's actually downloading, but it's been like this for a while now, and there's no progress bar or anything so I don't know if the phone's actually frozen or not!! Should I wait or restart the phone?

Pleaaaaase help!! I'm scared stiff that I might brick my phone!! I just bought it!!

should work with kies. try the newest version.
Kies does not update Galaxy Fit to 2.3. The phone comes with 2.2 and that's about it. He was referring to a custom rom I believe. It's still soon as the phone was just recently released

Can't upgrade to 2.2 - KIES doesn't recognize phone

Hi.
I have a rooted Samsung GT-I5801 with 2.1 and been waiting patiently to Samsung to resolve the KIES problem, but i'm tired of waiting.
All the official solutions i saw to upgrade had a warning to phone that where blocked to the operator. The fact that a i have it rooted removes that block?
How can i upgrade to 2.2?

Don't know about the block, but just search for STOCK FROYO OS in the dev thread
There is one with all stock firmware
Else go to samfirware.com (google for exact address) , register, and download the reqd firmware FOR THE REQD REGION
Sent from my GT-I5800 using xda premium
It would be nice to try custom froyo 2.2 roms. Stock 2.2 rom for i5801 has phone heating problem when used with continuous data connection. U won't get good battery backup either.

[Q] Samsung galaxy s2 HD lte unlocked canada restarts all of sudden

HI all,
I am new to this forum.
i got factory unlocked samsung galaxy s2 hd lte i757m with android v4.1.1 from canada.
I am using this cell in INDIA.
I am experiencing some freeze and sometimes restarts almost daily in my first week of usage.
battery drains fast with just 1hour of wifi usage.
Also cell phone heatsup while charging
Samsung support says officialy jellybean is not been released to hd lte yet , so u might be facing the problem.
Guys does anyone has faced same issues?? please help
There is no official JB for the i757m yet - Samsung are right. The issues definitely sound ROM related, I would recommend rolling back to ICS as it's very stable for me, with good battery life. Also worth noting - your phone will always heat up while charging
Here is a thread relating to installing CWM on the i757m. Ignore that, under the 'Download' section (expand the hide tag) there's a Dev.host link to some files. Go into the Bell SGS2 HD LTE folder, grab Odin3_1.85.zip and in the Factory Images folder, grab 'Unzip Me Stock ICS'. Don't forget to click 'thanks' for dsixda in his thread.
Once you have both those files down, unzip the ROM to get a tar.md5 image, and use ODIN to flash. There are many ODIN tutorials on this site, I suggest reading a couple BEFORE doing anything, as this has the potential to brick your phone completely.
If you need further help after reading, I will be here. I have this phone, and have done this a few times
Good luck!
Justin
thanks Justin,
I am newbie to android and samsung
Could you let me know where shall i get started ???
also the important thing i will have to rollback to ICS from INDIA and not Canada this time.
Is it possible from India?? if yes how?? any specific version of kies software required??

That's no problems, we don't actually use Kies to do anything, plus we are downloading the ROM ourselves. I have done the same thing from Australia, so I don't think that India should be a worry
If you follow that link above, and grab the two files that I mentioned, that's the first step. Once you have them on your computer, I'll send you some USB drivers, and then help you with the next steps to get it working

Though I am quite afraid to do so...I will monitor first my cell phone for a week or two and if its really getting into my head then i will flash it to ICS.
I will definitely need your help then.
really thanks a ton for replying...atleast i will have some directions now who already has done it !!!!
No worries mate, happy to help

Really worried

Hi all,
I was installing the stock 4.1.2 rom to my N8010 through odin3... but its been on halfway for the last hr now at "NAND Write start" obvs i cant unplug but am now worried its broke?
Any advise on what to do? sorry am a newbie
it does not take an hour to write there is some issue may be there is communication error or some issue with either USB port or something that is stopping Odin to write to the device.
I do not know what will happen if you unplug the usb port but that is the only option left.
What you can do is unplug
Restart you laptop
Exit Kies
Try installing again.
BTW what is the source of your firmware
If you bork your note 10.1, you can use kies / odin to get it back to factory.

Roms
Hi there...
My original rom comes from here: " sorry i cannot seem to post the link"
The SamMobile Firmware page N8010 ( which is my model)
*** SOLVED**
Hi there,
I have solved the problem.. it says to use Odin3 V3.0.7 which was freezing, i downgraded to the same Odin3 V3.0.4 that use for my Galaxy S3 and it has now installed perfectly...phew!!
I hope this will help anyone else in the same situation as me. Oh And Kies does not find my galaxy S3 or Note and it didnt locate my tablet either FYI
Ok good but it is strange to see kies not recognizing your devices that means there are some missing drivers not a good thing specially when u are flashing roms using it
What 4.1.2 for 8010 rom is this? Or is it the 8013 rom?
where is the link ?? to tell you which rom is
---------- Post added at 09:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 PM ----------
Got it yes you are right where did you get 4.1.2 rom for 8010 it is not out yet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi
I logged onto the samsung website....
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=8&view=8295
and in the search bar I typed N8010 and it brings up all available romz
sorry that should say 4.1.1....i was thinking of my Galaxy S3 I have also just upgraded to 4.1.2 what a "blonde"....apologies
Thats interesting because there are no 4.1.2 roms for the N8010 yet. I assume you are using a 8000/8013 rom, in which case do you know which one and how are you getting on with it?
The 8000 seems to work in flight mode, but according to other forums the 8013 won't even flash.

Bless your heart, I don't think that there's any way to downgrade to 4.1 from 4.3 without royally messing up your phone.
If I am wrong, someone please let me know.

Nope your right there isn't. Once your on 4.3 your on a locked BootLoader if you took the ota
And since they aren't or even can't send it back to the USA the only other option in the jtag service wouldn't be an option at this point
From my Wicked S3 on SOKP
So ur saying there is no going back to 4.3 even
How do i get my phone working i dont want it downgrade

I think that each incremental upgrade does something to the system to keep you from downgrading because everything that I've read on this makes it seem like it's more trouble than it's worth.
Now you can go to sammobile. com and search for the i535 rom and flash it on your phone.

If your on the 4.3 OTA it won't work when you use Odin. Your more than likely going to brick the phone that way. There's no way around it
From my Wicked S3 on SOKP
I think the OP is just trying to get back to 4.3 which is the condition in which he purchased the phone. You should be fine flashing through ODIN either one of the 4.3 full stock files (VRUCML1 or VRUCNC1) listed first in the first post of this thread:
