You might able to upgrade it via stock updater if there is update available for your tablet.

GT-I9100G Help please ??!

Hello XDA
I'm a little new to the whole android scene and I ( stupidly ) bought a Galaxy S2 I9100G version not knowing it would have lower performance and much harder to upgrade to ICS so I have a few questions because I want to manually upgrade it to ICS 4.0.3 and Kies doesn't work at all so my question is:
What does the basebands differ from one to another and if I'm to install an official update to my "I9100GDZKH5" which firmware should I install to be suitable to it.
or should I choose it based on the kernel version whick is "2.6.15.7 [email protected] #2"
BTW I live in Egypt and the official ICS firmware still hasn't come out

Try Flashing a Custom ROM. In order to do this you will have to Root your phone and your phone will get warranty void. The decision lies upon you.

Thanks for your reply starbriganza but I'm trying to find a way to manually install official firmware and all I need to know is how to pick the appropriate firmware for my Galaxy S2

Samsung has officially released ICS 4.0.4 now. You can google it and install it via odin. Just put the downloaded .tar file in the PDA section and flash it.

[Q] How to upgrade my unbranded android 2.2 tablet

I bought an unbranded tablet in Japan running android 2.2.
On running adb devices it shows device name as MID_Serials.
I want to upgrade it to android version 4.0 or higher.
Are there are any roms available ? Is there any generic custom rom which i can use for upgrading my tablet?
May be Not Available for UNKNOWN device..

Android vanilla irrespective of the make and model?

Is there such a thing as a stock vanilla Android ROM 4.4.2 that can be installed in any brand of cellphone made for Android 4.4.2?
