Hy, i'm new here, so sorry if i did not post in the right section
I have a Galaxy Fit on Android 2.3.4 and I want to update to 2.3.6.The problem when I connect to Kies is: "Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via Kies"
As far as I read on other posts, i have to change the CSC code.Can someone help me with that?I tried changing to some CSC's with the *#272*... but it did not work.What csc do i have to select?
Mention: my phone is not rooted, not flashed.Stock ROM!
Here are some details about my phone: PDA: S5670XWKQA / PHONE: S5670XWKQ3 / CSC: S5670OXFKQ4 /
Help please.

Updating via odin won't void your warranty
Or, you still have your warranty,so why don't you ask in service center to upgrade your firmware.
Ok, thanks a lot.
One last thing though: Can something bad/harmful for my phone happen if upgrade with Odin?Can you indicate me best thread that teaches correctly how to update via Odin?
Thanks in advance

On the web site are official ROMs.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
In Search type s5670 and you'll get Firmware for install. Install Firmware for your region. After install it via ODIN,
connect your phone with PC, open KIES and you'll get notification about Firmware that you have installed.
I do not think they should more receive such a notice, but notification that is your last firmware official.

YOU are yourself your best guide..just READ READ and READ before you do anything with odin..its little risky,but not hard at all!
^follow this video..he has a video for 2.3.4 also,in case you have 4 files and not one package file
Watch 2-3 videos of upgrading galaxy fit in his playlist and you are good to go..

I am currently running AOKP JB Milestone 1, Rooted, With CWM. I would like to totally revert my tablet back to its original state. Meaning Stock Recover, Stock ROM, etc. How do I do this? A step my step guide would be wonderful. People posting links to threads saying here you go does not help. I have looked through all the threads and the STOCK ODIN or whatever download link is dead.

You're welcome. I assume you have the usb drivers for windows. If not, dowload Kies then uninstall Kies, the drivers are separate, so they won't be uninstalled unless you opt to uninstall them. If you do keep Kies, make sure it is not running when you perform the procedure.
is this possible with p310?

P3100? Sure, just get the correct firmware for your device and follow the instructions at android authority. Link is a couple posts up. Also, I believe a stock firmware is available in our xda forum. Just search for the stock p3100 or register at sammobile and download. I assume you rooted and already have Odin.

So i'm going to download the pt310 firmware update from sammobile. Will i need a pit file to go with that? or can i use the pt311 ones on the andriod authority

Download only p3100--p3110-- is wifi only. Likely doesn't need a pit file, but don't quote me on that.
Does anyone know where or even if there are just plain vanilla stock unrooted Samsung ROMS for the Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8013 (US variant)?? I rooted and flashed a custom ROM to my tablet and after awhile, I decided I wanted to go back to complete stock. I have seen threads with the original stock kernel and recovery, but I sort of wanted a full, 1gig+ stock unrooted ROM offered by Samsung.. I have seen stock ROMs for other series of this tablet, but I have been unable to find any for the N8013. Any help would be great! Thanks!
Sammobile.com has it, but ics only.

Go to www.samfirmware.com and select the firmware tab. Once you enter your tab details, the available firmware is there to download.
Install with Odin and you'll have your stock tab back.
I did that recently having installed the UK JB firmware, but managed to get a binary count of 12 (increased by 2 per flash)
Now I am back to standard and waiting for the official OTA upgrade *yawn*
Good luck

Can't Get Firmware
Unfortunately, SamFirmWare.com won't let me download the firmware. It asks me to log in, and I do. Then when I go to the Firmware page, it forgets who I am, and tells me to log in again. It doesn't forget anywhere else, JUST on the firmware page.
I tried setting up another account, but they want my credit card info for that now, and I ain't giving that out!
I know that this is the name of the file you are looking for. Do a search for it and this will get you back to a stock ROM.
I know because I had to use it once to recover a quasi-brick issue on my tablet.

Not exactly what you're looking for but this one is all stock, latest firmware except it is deodexed and retains root. You can re-odex the ROM if you want. Been running it for a while now and it's been pretty damn good.

When the page opens you will see a clock for wait time, click on "Regular" and then wait your 10 seconds, enter captcha code and download file.
If your coming from root clear firmware counts with Triangle Away first, then do your firmware flash then a factory reset after firmware install.

It's only needed to reset the flash count, if your not worried about the count and or out of warranty then you don't really need it.

As stated in post #14 above......
Install Triangle Away first then run the app to clear firmware counts.
Connect tablet to a PC via factory USB cable.
Boot tablet into Odin mode, start Odin app on PC and in PDA line direct the app to the N8013UEUCMI3_N8013XARCMI3_XAR.zip
file and press Start in Odin app.
After restart do a factory reset from tablet recover mode.

Hi all
Sorry to bother you. I upgraded my UK Note to the German JB 4.1.1. a few weeks ago and it's been flying since. I noticed today though, that SamMobile had the German 4.1.2. version available for download (N8010XXUCMA5 / N8010OXACMA5), so I'm now in the process of downloading it.
What I need to know is, is it simply a case of me doing what I did to upgrade to JB before? I used Odin if I remember right, and pointed it toward the ROM I wanted to flash with. Is that all that's needed?
Also, do I need to backup my present setup or won't it affect my present apps when I flash with 4.1.2.?
Many thanks guys

Odin flash --> User Data/Apps is not deleted --> reroot (if you want)
Backup is always a good idea
Backing up your current setup is always a good idea, but I had no issue when I flashed it.
Assuming that your not rooted, use Odin or use Exynos Abuse to root and then...
If you are rooted then get a copy of Mobile Odin and select everroot.
Thanks guys
I'm not rooted at the moment. Do I need to root? I haven't felt the need to do so until now, so I'm not really bothered about rooting...

No pressing need to root so if you don't want to, then just use Odin to flash it.
You do not need to root to flash using odin just go on the link on my signature to get the tutorial

Great.
One more question. I swapped from a UK ROM to the German JB one. Is it an easy procedure to go back to the official UK ROM if and when ver. 4.1.2. is available in the UK?
Cheers
Yes it should not be a problem the same procedure but make sure you take a back up
Thanks all
11 minutes and counting before the new ROM is d/loaded...
Just had a look at the rooting guide (thanks Samir) and the first option looks very easy (ExynosAbuse app). If I was to use this method would I lose any functionality of the Note at all? Also, if I have to send my Note back, would Samsung object to the note having been rooted?
Cheers
I dont think mobile odin will flash the hidden or bootloaders, odin or heimdall is a better option
the exynos abuse patch doesn't work on the MA (4.1.2) builds, if you want root use cfautoroot through odin on those.
Rooting will cause issues with samsungs warranty. If you need to return a device to samsung then you need to restore it to stock rom, with no root, they are using a binary counter though that you can get rid of by using triangleaway.
don't forget to use the search on the forum for these topics, there's been quite a bit about them
Well I've followed the instructions like last time, but it won't update - it keeps saying the process has 'FAILED'
Can anyone shed any light on why I can't update???
Confirm that Kies is not running

Wifi settings can be set to disconnect when screen off.
My Note N8000 has a hardware problem and will prepare to send to tech service through Operator Tech service, still has N8000 in ICS 4.0.4. I would like to downgrade to ICS 4.0.4 from JB 4.1.2 but I am worry about flash using ODIN. I don't know if needed a special ICS pack or ayone would be OK. My worries are about possible repartition back to ICS and PIT needed at same time as separated PDA, CSC and modem files. Does ICS and JB partitions were the same or if different, were to find a specific distributed list of files for ICS installation and then apply a second update for my operator?
If not needed specific PIT/PDA/CSC and Modem files, could I apply a normal pack using ODIN? what for downgrade from JB?
Thanks

You don't need the csc or modem as the stock rom or .tar file should contain this... Go to Sammobile to find the stock rom for your region (you will need to register)....

yes I see thank you but it is risky to do repartition or not because i flash my country ICS 4.0.4 without repartition and the problem of mobile disconection still persist this problem is not present in jelly bean and not present in ics before updating to jelly bean and what is repartition effect ,sorry for many question and thank you in advance
Using a pit file is risky. If the pit file you use is corrupt, not the right one for your device or has any other problems you will brick your device. Most people here will tell you that you're mad to use pit file when flashing. But hey, if you cant get ANYTHING to work, you're one step off returning it to Samsung and you have a null waranty then I say go ahead and try... You can't make it any worse....
If you don't have all the above conditions then to be honest I'd do a butt ton of research before playing around with the pit file.
Just out of interest, what was so terribly bad about Jelly Bean that you wanted to revert to ICS?
I have an N8000 with XSG and JB. I cannot fault it, and I wouldn't want to go back to ICS

My reason to return back to ICS is battery drain and mobile operator tech. service visit. My Note 10.1 needs to repair a SIM card slot issue under warranty, I need to restore as operator sold it because of warranty purposes. When it return back to me I will maintain last ICS it exist in the market. It seems to be better than JB, I also have a SGS II and battery drain is terrible when using JB, I returned to ICS and it works much better.

You do not need to return it to how the operator sold it. If there is a update to the software pushed out by the manufacturer then warranty is still valid...
If the place you bought it off told you that they're blowing smoke up your arse trying to make it hard as possible for you to return under warranty.
If the sales rep insists then speak to their manager. You can't loose warranty by upgrading the software the Manufacturer is endorsing...
As for battery, I don't know what you are running but battery is fine on JB... I tend to find it takes a day or 2 for the rom to stabilise and battery might suffer for that small amount of time but once it does its awesome...
HELP
my device is made in vietienam please help me to return to ICS
Hi Guys,
Yesterday I updated my phone via Odin to Oreo, but unfortunately samsung health says that my phone is rooted and it is not working anymore. ( Of course my phone is not rooted, I used stock firmware)
I think the problem is I used different region code firmware. Am I right? How can I use the app again? Wait for my original country's firmware and update via Odin would be a solution?

It detects Knox is 0x1. To fix this you must root your phone, go with root browser to the root of the device (/) then /efs. There you'll find a file "factory.prop". Open it and add there "ro.config.tima=0". Then you can unroot/reflash stock ROM and s health works

thanks for your quick reply, Is this a permanent change or can I fix this by flashing my phone's original country firmware?
Actually I don't want to root my phone as it has warranty till the end of this year..

Check in Download Mode, if it says Warranty Void 0x1 then it has at one time either been rooted or had custom flashed to it, in which case Warranty is void anyway and you might as well root

It is still 0 (0x0000)
What about to downgrade back to Nougat? Will it work again?

I thought your knox was 0x1, but in this case try just to wipe data of S health

not working... I did full wipe
Googled it and everybody recommends to root the phone in case of above S health bug... but I am looking for another solution ... Surprisingly this is the only app which thinks I am rooted...
Found it. I need to flash all components not Just AP in odin
And it works?
Yes! It is working now. You need to flash every stuff from the downloaded zip. Thankfully SamMobile attached everything you need.
:good:
As I see a lot of people facing this issue,and all "expert " recommends root. But there are other options too.
Anyway, thank you for all help

Experts recommend root if your KNOX is 0x1 because that is the only solution, if you fail to read up on how to flash firmware and end up with a problem because of your own fault, and fail to mention in your main post that you didn't flash the firmware correctly, we are not psychic, we can only go on the info you give us
Next time, learn how to flash firmware the correct way first

That's true, that was my mistake... in good old Times as I remember only AP was included in the ZIP,and that was enough.

Yep, with my S5 that was the method, but instructions for S7 are under the download on sammobile's site and all over this forum
As a rule when I get a new phone I spend a good few weeks reading threads before I attempt anything, even a simple stock flash, saves possible bricks and other problems like this one
Anyway good it's working again
I have the exactly same issue knox is 0x0 but Samsung health isn't working, can you please explain the exact steps about the following message how can i run Samsung health in g955u secure folder is also not working
Yes! It is working now. You need to flash every stuff from the downloaded zip. Thankfully SamMobile attached everything you need.
