What have you done buddy. We are already intimating to every newbie for not to create duplicate thread, which are already made or discussed before.:angel: So, If you need that just move your question to already discussed threads.
However, No body (Excluding Nordic countries) are getting update Via Kies.
Reported to justin..

Hey guys,
My Transformer is set to arrive shortly, and I've noticed that even the Asus reps have recommended not installing the OTA update. However, I have also read that you can only turn the update down three times before the system forces it. So what's the best solution for those of us who haven't taken the device out of the box yet?
(Also, I understand methods have been discussed in other threads, but I couldn't find them via search. I also didn't want to "hijack" the Bricked Transformer thread. Perhaps this could be a central thread for advice for folks just getting their Transformers now.)

I was wondering the same thing about the updates and potential for bricking. My transformer is arriving today. Where did you read that the AUS reps said not to install the updates?

A guy called "Rich" (here) and a developer called "Eric Liu" (here). Both purport to be from Asus and I see no reason to believe they're lying.
I'm hearing reports that the update might have been pulled. Can anyone with an older stock device confirm that?
Thanks!

If no one else beats me to it, I'd be glad to share my experience out of the box tonight. However, even if they pulled the latest update, I imagine there's a chance it might want to update to the previous (safe) one. So two questions: #1 - Can I tell what version of OTA the device wants to install prior to installing it? #2 - If it wants to install the latest OTA, how can I prevent it from doing so? (Without installing a non-stock ROM.)
Anyone knows when the update is going to arrive? This device had had only two leaks, and yet still not official firmware even thought the other devices in the galaxy tab 2 line have received their 4.1.1 update.
Nope. On the Samsung website the answer to that question is that they don't/won't "speculate" when a release may come out.

What's taking them so long? I mean I've been waiting for like3 months and my device is the only one not getting the update. Guess I'll stick with CM10.1
yup, we covered this last week here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2046567
ALWAYS assume your question or comment has been asked and do a good search before starting a repetitive thread.
Also if your on CM 10.1 your not gonna even get the update (and why would you want to use an OLDER version anyway) unless you use Triangle away to reset the flash counter and revert to stock.

I'm not talking about OTA or not. I'm only talking about the jb update for this device. I obviously know I won't get the update on CM but I can revert back to stock as I want the stock jb for p3113.
Hey Guys,
yesterday I needed to unbrick my device. I took the uploaded stock from this thread . It's an US stock 4.2.2 firmware but I got a huge update via Kies after flashing. And now guess! Yeah I'm on absolutely official KitKat 4.4.2 . I'm from germany and tested one another right before matching to my location, just to check but it's not available here (yet).
Yeah Its out for a while
@NeoPreacher & @LegendSmoker
It is true KK is an old story. But still I find interesting what NeoPreacher is saying.
One he may be telling others that even when you could be in a region without an update yet that if you install a US/Canada version you can get the Kies upgrade. Now this is not that important to me.
But I am understanding that when he said "I needed to unbrick my device" that he has some sort of a MOD Rom! Is this true? So then I find interesting that by uploading the file he mention he got Kies to upgrade him. I was in the confusion that once you mod your firmware you could not get OTA nor Kies to upgrade you. So @neopreache could you confirmed that you had tested any of the posted Roms here or had Custom Recovery or Roorted your device previous of recovering with kies? Thanks
Yes I tested some other stuff posted in dev section. But I did something very wrong so I needed Odin to unbrick.I own my tab just for a few days, so it was more a playing around than knowing what to do.I often read about an unstable 4.2.2 stock, so I thought it might be interesting for people in regions out of north America to see that there is another possibility to stay on official stock and get an update for their machines.
Wondering if any Canadian Users have received an update yet? I'm with Telus, build number 7SQ8-UD80.
I'm running one I bought from Koodo. I'm on that same 7SQ8-UD80 build. Wondering if Alcatel pushes the updates, or if it'd need to go through carrier testing first.
If it needs to go through carrier testing, might take a while to get an update...that's if that carrier decides to bother putting money into testing an at all. Kind of early to know for sure though.
Might not hurt to ask Alcatel or your carrier via Twitter.
Any Canadians have update yet? I still haven't!
Just picked up one from Bell yesterday for my wife.
It didn't download any system updates. I didn't check the version number but she did experience that lag issue when clearing recent apps and wasn't too impressed with the camera quality. Hoping the update comes soon and at least fixes the camera quality. She also experienced a couple of FC's when trying to change the default notification sounds... Reboot fixed that.
I'm fairly certain the device is unlocked so I'm hoping the update can come directly from Alcatel and not have to go through the carrier.

Still no updates on mine. As for the Bell one being unlocked...it'd be best to verify it using a non Bell and non virgin sim card to test it. It'd be highly irregular for them to not lock it.
I bought mine unlocked from Amazon.com and use it on Wind mobile up here. Got the 7SQR-UER0 update OTA around a week ago.
Generally I have found it to be more responsive, scrolling lists in apps are smooth now instead of stuttering every time. Haven't really tested the camera quality though.
My DTTW is awful I hope they push the update soon!
I have emailed telus and Alcatel at PR.NA(at)alcatelonetouch.com to see if there's an ETA or update coming anytime soon
Hopefully we hear something back
Hope we hear something back to. Seems like everyone else has the update already!

In the system updates checker what firmware does it show you having? I'm asking all these questions because if it's similar to the usa firmwares then you could download the twrp backups provided of the os with all updates and flash to your device. Details on the project are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/general/want-to-able-to-install-ota-updates-t3163745 You'd be booting twrp and doing a restore instead of a backup but same basic process.

When it comes to emailing TELUS, you'd be better off asking their social media team..so Twitter or Facebook. Email probly won't help, or will get you a very generic answer.

I've used twrp before with root and custom ROMs but am I able to use it to flash the 6045i firmware without rooting or using twrp as the recovery?
If so has anyone else tried it?
Does Alcatel have software similar to Odin where I can load other ROMs without rooting?
So any updates yet Canadians, still nothing for me on Telus.
Still nothing on Koodo (same as Telus)
Any updates yet Canadians??
Nothing on Koodo/telus yet (not surprised)
Has anyone gotten a useful reply from their carrier yet?
@purple.epod posted a tutorial on how to put the USA firmware onto the canadian model here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/general/convert-canadian-6045i-to-6045i-updates-t3177979
Hello all,
I've completed my search on the forum for a similar issue but have been unable to find it hence this new thread.
Late March i've installed the latest update and since then tethering does no longer work. Let be try to be a bit more specific.
When i switch on the Mobile hotspot, it is recognized by other devices, it even allows these devices to connect however,
on none of these devices internet access is possible eventhough the host has internet access via 4G+.
I've spoken with Vodafone about it and they've told me there's no restriction on tethering as it prohibited by european law. After that
i contacted Samsung, who connected to my phone, cleared cache and some other things. Result, still no solution.
Third, went to a samsung service point where they've investigated and were unable to assist, even after a factory reset it was still not working.
Fourth, done the settings put global tether_dun_required 0 myself, also no success.
Fifth, installed a tethering app, no success either.
I therefore turn to you experts, is anyone able to give me some guidance on what to do next and or what a possible issue could be ?
Added images which show the version .
Many thanks in advance
Peter

Welcome to XDA! The next thing I'd try is reinstalling the ROM using Odin. You can download the ROM from www.sammobile.com/firmwares.
BTW, questions would go here. Don't worry about this one--the mods will move it shortly.
Cheers!
Thank you
Thank you for your response and apologies for posting the wrong section.
Ok, so i have to go to sam mobile for the rom. Next question would be, which one ?
My phone is bought in the UK and i'm in the Netherlands with a dutch carrier, Vodafone NL.
the csc is: G920FBTU3DPB1
CP: G920FXXS3DPB3
AP: G920FXXS3DPB2
I'm a droid noob so sorry for these silly questions
cheers

Search on the CSC. You're looking for the UK ROM it's currently running.
Brings me back to my initial question, I'm unable to use tethering which i'm really dependent on in my work.
Are you suggesting a reinstall of the rom ? or should i go ahead with a rom specifically for the netherlands.
p.s. My colleague, same phone, has the same issue.
cheers !

I wouldn't think that tethering is dependent upon region after an upgrade. I'd flash the ROM for the phone's region first. If that didn't work, then I'd consider a CSC change and flash a ROM for the Netherlands.
This morning a new update was available which I installed successfully. Tethering is now working again
thank you for your help!
Peter
If have the same issue (also NL Vodafone). Since I upgraded to MM tethering is not working, connects without any problem but there is no data transfer. I'm currently running a custom ROM and don't want to change to stock. I updated my modem and bootloader several times. Can anyone pinpoint what exactly is the problem?
