Samsung galaxy 2 help - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys, hope I'm posting this in the correct place.
I don't come here often but I'm not able to find much info about this.
My girlfriend has a galaxy s2 and I'm trying to get the OTA jelly bean update that is not available on the bell Canada network.
My issue is, in the about phone section, she does not have the "check for update" button in the menu.
Anyone ever see this or have a fix for that menu beside using a pc to update the phone?
Thanks

[Q] flashed my galaxy s2. updating question.

I have a sprint galaxy s2 epic 4g touch. I flashed it for metropcs. and now all my options for updating the phone through settings dont work. Also Kies shows an error for updates as well.
How do I update my phone?
I'm asking mainly for the ICS that should be coming shortly. I dont want to miss out!
is there anyone who can help me out on this?
Your updates come from Sprint. You are not on the Sprint Network. You will not get updates.
Most roms Will remove kies support.
Kies won't work

Android 4.0.4 Upgrade?

I apologize in advance for the noob question; I have been stock on this phone for awhile so I'm lost (ex-EVO here). I successfully rooted my phone two days ago, and now this upgrade popped up. It says it offers the Android 4.0.4 upgrade. Will it affect my root? Or brick my phone?

Wrong phone, buddy. Next time you should try reading before asking a question also.
I posted this in the epic 4G forum and here. Where is my phone? I've looked everywhere when I looked for root and ultimately had to take a chance. Can you please link me to the right forum?

I don't know where your phone is, but your forum (if you indeed have a SPH-D710 model device) should be here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1284

Hello

Hey guys.
I didn't know if this exactly qualifies as a question or an inquiry, so I decided to post it here.
I live in Palestine, and I have friends who use the Samsung GS2. Now as we all know, the GS2 received an update to ICS a while ago.
Non of my friends where able to upgrade nor through the in-device update option or through Kies.
I have a GS3, I haven't updated it in over a month. I keep looking for official OTAs through my phone but it keeps giving Me the "cannot connet to network" error. I get nothing through Kies which says I have the latest firmware.
I was able to check for updates normally when I bought my phone in Jordan and if there was no update it will till me so.
My question is, is there no server in Palestine or something?
All the phones mentioned above are unrooted and are international phones ans not locked to a carrier.
Thanks in advance!

[Q] SGH 1497 (at&t 4g version) help updating

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10 .1 inch AT&T 4G SGH 1497 I am unable to use several features because of the 4.1 .2 apk update but more importantly I was curious if anyone was successful in installing a 4.2 .2 to this version of the tab 2 and if anyone was able to get everything working solid? I am very interested in getting this rooted but I don't want to screw up the 4G capabilities and take it off the AT&T network if anyone has any tips links or maybe I missed it in the forums on how or if its possible I would be greatly appreciative. also if you know anything about the WiFi Bluetooth problem I have another post that is directly related to this? thanks for Reading
I had no issues rooting and installing twrp/cwm, but I hard bricked one trying to install AOKP. CyanogenMod gave me the dreaded error 7. From what I understand, this hardware is nothing like the other TAB 2's. It's not looking too good lately. Imight get impatient before long and do my own de-odex and mod the systemui as well as other things. MY tab 2 is just not my main device so I haven't put allot of effort into it as yet. Someone is going to need to soon or we'll all just upgrade to something else that is better supported by dev's. I wish us luck on this device. I have googled to high hell and haven't dug up anything. Couldnt even find an odin file for 4.1.2, so I captured that one while i could and put it up for d/l. Maybe that will help someone dev on 4.1.2 at least.
Hello,
I'm glad I found this post. Can either of you provide a link to the file needed to root the AT&T 4G SGH 1497, I can't seem to find it anywhere. Thanks for any help.

I too am in this dilemma. I just purchased a Tab 2 and want to root to remove the AT&T bloatware. SGH-I497. I found this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2101044
But since I don't know when 4.1.2 was rolled out for the Tab 2, I don't know if this root method is valid. Help please.
SGH-I497, 16 GB AT&T running 4.1.2 build #J2054K.I497UCBMF2
One small mistake on my part... I have the wifi version. Changed my profile pic to Underdog (I'm such an idiot).
