Hi im new to these forums as i have just bought a galaxy s second hand,
anyways the problem is when i connect it to kies to try and update the firmware it says the current firmware is: blank <as in nothing>
tried kies 1.5 and 2.0 same thing it picks up the phone but wont pick up the firmware,
im guessing somethings been done to this phone, all i want is the stock firmware and to be able to update in the future, nothing fancy. please help.
Find what version your stock firmware is and flash it with odin. You can download the firmware from samfirmware.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
i dont know if this helps but it says
pda: i9000xxjpo
phone: i9000xxjpp
csc: unknown
build info: 2010, 10
firmware version
2.2
baseband version
i9000xxjpp
kernel
2.6.32.9
[email protected] #1
build
froyo.xxjpo
now which one is my stock firmware and can this be updated via kies once ive done it through odin?
Stock firmware = basic unbranded unaltered firmware as supplied by Samsung .
Network firmware is above plus any network branding plus add on that the network have added .
So you have stock firmware .
now which one is my stock firmware and can this be updated via kies once ive done it through odin?
No if you use Kies it will look for the phones product code to update product code is tied to seller/network of original phone .
What is your product code .
Question has to be what do you want on your phone re firmware and are you willing to use flashing methods or not .
jje
thanks for the reply,
now how do i find the product code?
from what i know about the phone is that it used to be on vodaphone and is now sim free, the guy who sold it to me told me he had 2.3 on there but reverted it before selling, i dont see how he managed to do this using kies?
what i would like is to be able to update it through kies to 2.2.1 which is what my gf has on her phone, and make it readable for future updates, if i have to use flashing methods to achieve this then so be it, or is there another way if i can get the product code?

Enter *2767*4387264636# in your dialer.
Then there will be a line that says:
[2] PCode:"your phone model type"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835628&highlight=Kies+Registry+Patcher
You are best to try above and see how you get on .
As its non stock firmware you may need to spoof the product details etc .
If the download of the firmware works take the opportunity to save the rom as in instructions .
jje
pcode: gt-i9000hkaxee
There is no such sales-code, just flash to the latest JPY and you are set..the phone you have has been flashed to Nordic firmware sales-code XEE at some point, the sales-code for Voda is GT-I9000HKDVOD or GT-I9000HKAVOD.
After flashing enter in phone-dialer the following: *#272*IMEI_NUMBER# and choose XEU.
9000 [Sweden] = GT-I9000HKAXEE
Product code for Sweden.

ok this is disappointing news, i am sorry i am really new to all this, but does this mean il never be able to update through kies, and will need to keep flashing to update the phone?
do i still try the kies registry patcher thing or forget about it?
Are you swedish in sweden or where what product firmware do you want .

Ofcourse you can use kies in the future, but after you have corrected the sales-code. You might be able to do it now, just enter *#272*IMEI_NUMBER# and try to see if you can choose XEU.
i am from the uk london to be exact, and i just wanted the latest kies firmware, like my gf has 2.2.1 i will try the code you gave me now and post back
ok i tried that with the imei and it said rejected

Check the IMEI number under Settings>About phone>Status , see if it is correct. You must enter the number without slashes or spaces.

The latest Kies firmware for your phone is Swedish .
Kies reads your phone and servers sees Swedish product code and wrong firmware so it does not proceed .
Choice is one use Odin and put the latest stock non network Firmware on phone
problem will be its not going to update in the future via Kies as Kies will be trying to update the firmware thats Swedish .
two change your product code
three use Kies registry patcher to spoof your phone to a UK branded phone
same as one you wil not get a further update but need to spoof again .
Example current )2 uk firmware with very little branding/ad ons by O2 .

He did state that the phone was on vodaphone, GT-I9000HKDO2U is an O2 sales code, I did suggest XEU because vodaphone codes are GT-I9000HKAVOD or GT-I9000HKDVOD, in this case he has GT-I9000HKAXXX, and while changing the sales code only the last three letters would change. If he does change that to O2 code then it will change to GT-I9000HKAO2U then keis will not recognize the phone again, because there is no such sales-code.

My friend, download JPY from here: http://www.multiupload.com/UHJNT0K1F2 Extracting code is samfirmware.com
Flash using odin 1.7 : http://www.multiupload.com/JMBJGDN00I
Load the extracted tar file in odin as PDA and flash, after that enter the recovery mode and do a factory reset.
Use the images here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846913 as reference if you did not use odin before, but you must start odin, load the tar file as PDA and then put the phone on download phone before connecting the phone and flashing.
Entering download mode is by pressing and holding Volume down key + Home key and then pressing and holding Power on key till you get to download mode.
Entering recovery mode is by pressing and Volume up key + Home key and then pressing and holding Power on key till you get to recovery mode, navigate using Volume op/down keys and select using Home key.
Good luck..
DAY 1: My phone bootloops when i flashed a modem. So I flashed a firmware base on my country (Philippines N9005XXUEND6). I used odin 3.09 for flashing, did check the FRESET TIME, AUTOREBOOT, AP BOX and BOOTLOADER UPDATE.. It was successful but on the homescreen, "setup wizard has stopped" flashes on screen so I factory reset via stock recovery, then it runs ok.. Set up is done,. But another problems are:
1. entering camera, it shows black screen then says "warning: camera failed".
2. entering the phone dialler it takes seconds to respond
3. music is freezes
4. unlocking the phone it takes seconds to open
5.wakelock takes seconds also to respond
6. no sound
N9005XXUEND6 is the firmware I flashed.
DAY 2: I flashed a different firmwares XXUEND5, XXUENB4, but i notice that i after flashing, no setup wizard in the homescreen. It is the same settings,wallpaper and i have the messages and conversations in my inbox. It looks like the firmware didnt update but i look up in the baseband and build version it does change.. A friend of mind says that after flashing a firmware setup wizard must pop on the screen but mine doesnt.HELP ME MASTERS.. Im losing hope..
I cant figure out the problem, my drivers is installed, i have the firmwares, odin 3.09, and all required tools for flashing
please help me masters.. I did trying reflash the firware and do the reset, the problem persist.. thanks in advance
I have a similar problem, but I think yours is much more simpler hopefully
You find the data unchanged because you didn't do a factory reset
To do so, turn off your phone then open recovery mode by pressing VOLUME+, HOME & POWER buttons together until it opens
Choose Wipe Data/ Factory Reset --> Yes
then reboot your phone
My phone turned out to have a RAM problem and still haven't fixed it, it will cost me a lot especially that I voided my warranty because I rooted the phone
The same problem exactly!!! And I do all reset severel times! Help us!!!

If you could fix it don't forget to tell us about it
BTW I found a post online that says the problem could be due to separated camera from the motherboard
So if you don't have warranty as myself you should get it to maintenance service and tell them to check the camera

Then I guess your problem is like mine .. it could be hardware related :\
After I installed this ROM I found the camera working but not video camera and still can't play videos but there are no hangs
It still has problems but it sort of confirmed that I have a hardware problem
You need to be rooted
It's an AOSP ROM without Samsung Touchwiz ..

You said you tried updating the firmware of your region and the problem persists .. You should let someone flash the software using a BOX (not just using odin) (preferably go to Samsung)
if it's not solved then it's most probably a hardware problem .. I didn't drop my phone either but that's not necessary

I had a problem with flashing it via Odin (stuck at "get PIT for mapping) so I flashed it through mobile odin pro... Which at the same time rooted the firmware and solved the issue. Btw I love how they redisigned it. Kinda less boring
Other models
Hi guys! I have one question, can I install this rom in a N8010XXUCMG1 (France) model?
General Update via ODIN Questions
As far as I can see, this HOW-TO indicates that there are no issues with updating my GT-N8010 Canada version with the UK version? Is this correct?
And if I follow the process as explained, will any data be lost? App data? Personal data?
Thanks in Advance!

Yes it does UN - Root the Device and I like it overall use with nova added.
It is better to leave device un-rooted unless needed to be rooted.

I just installed N8010XXUDNE4_N8010BTUDNF1_BTU on my Canadian device. It kept everything from before but i had problems with google account authorization in the play store. After doing a factory reset everything worked well.
hello
two months ago i was using my SM-N9005 -*not rooted * as usual, there was no internet connection
not even an update notification appeared
then the screen turned black with android logo on it and a text message below it saying "Downloading .... don't turn off target"
and some small words
however it took too long so i removed the battery , device restarted and worked well
now i cannot update my 4.4.2 to 5.0 which was released here in egypt more than a month ago
the device state is OFFICIAL how ever i can't update via OTA or KIES
Try looking for the stock LP firmware on sammobile.com

I recommend you this steps for avoid problems:
1. Install this APP and look for your CSC code (Pic 1).
2. Look for that 3 letters in "Select Country" -> HERE. It will tell you of what country is your device.
3. Download, unzip and flash via ODIN the latest firmware for your device (Pic 2).

PDA appears in Odin 3.07.

PDA is AP. I recommend you use better Odin 3.09 or above.
It's done
Thanks

1. No. It's better only flash the "Available CSC Codes" to your device. Take a look the example:
Thanks too much you helped me alot today , friend )
Warning: Do this at your own risk, I am not responsible for any damage that is caused to your device. This method worked for me and should work for everyone.

You must make sure the model numbers are the same for the country you want to change to. To check that go to
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/recent/
and type in your device model number. leave country code blank. The countries that are listed are those that will work on your specific device. DO NOT TRY TO CHANGE TO A DIFFERENT MODEL NUMBER COUNTRY!
MAKE sure device has above 70% battery just to be safe
OK lets start!
Backup all your data on samsung cloud and google
This will **erase** all your data
Download samsung drivers
https://www.hardreset.info/download/samsung-drivers/
Check the CSC code you want from
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2546689 credit to Jasi2169
Important later
download the firmware you want from sammobile (slow download speed) or
https://samfw.com/ for faster download speeds.
It will be a zip file so use winrar to extract and you should get 5 files that start with
AP (System &Recovery)
BL (Bootloader)
CP (Modem / Radio)
CSC\_ (Country / Region / Operator)
HOME\_CSC (Country / Region / Operator)
DELETE the home file
Next download Odin
https://dl2018.sammobile.com/Odin3-v3.14.4.zip
Extract the Odin file and run as administrator
Add each file to its respective field in Odin
Now we need to put the phone in download mode to do that go to:
https://www.hardreset.info/devices/samsung/samsung-galaxy-a51/download-mode/
keep trying until it works.
Next plug the device in and press start. It should take about 3-4 mins for odin to say PASS
DO NOT UNPLUG THE PHONE AT ANY POINT EVEN AFTER ODIN SAYS PASS
Let the phone do its thing and dont worry if it takes too long on the Samsung screen.
You should then be greeted with the welcome screen BUT it may not be the correct language so set it to English (I flashed UK firmware and it came in Russian)
Set the phone up but dont worry about apps we are going to reset the phone again
Head over to (APK provided by yakapa40)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hU3vl_V7NsRgI_RsQywytORoB8isJ1ni/view?usp=sharing
on your device or PC and download it. Extract and it should be a apk file. Download it with your device.
Allow unknown sources and it should says done and not open (that is normal)
put you device in flight mode/airplane mode
hold down the home screen and go to themes
Galaxy themes
My stuff
Select mysterious theme(make sure not to click update)
Select try it out
Go to Settings
About phone
Legal information
Change Carrier or whatever third option is (the one that says android 10)
Choose and install the CSC you want (that 3 letter code) remove sim and it will restart phone
again, dont worry if its on the Samsung screen for too long.
You should be back on the welcome screen and you are done!!!
Set up the phone and enjoy!!!

If your actual screen is faulty then it wont work but no harm in trying since warranty is not voided
hey, my galaxy theme has not try out option in airplane mode ,, it says check network connection (it has only two button check connection and try again , no try out)... what should I do?
I already installed the mysterious theme and select "try it out", I went to "settings", About phone and in "Legal Information", the option "Change Carrier" does not appear, what could be the problem?
The software version says it is October 1, 2020. Thanks!

Just got a new phone with the same software version and the same problem. Did you ever come up with a solution?
Thanks.
Edit: actually this is closer to my problem.

Hi, I changed csc on my A51 in order to enable native call recording feature ( Italian stock firmware and Vietnam XXV CSC ) but after last OTA update ( build a515fxxu5eug5 ) google pay stopped working due to "unsafe firmware", as it was rooted.
Which is your advice ?

No. I think there was some problem with THAT update....because after further updates it started working again...
(Stock Bootloader)
Sounds like very thing works fine now on your phone? How s that call recording func ,works as expected with Bluetooth headphones connected as well ? What about caller id ,assume since region has changed It won't gonna detect correct local numbers,am I right? Thanks for sharing!
Nono, everything about calls (and recording) works perfectly, with headphones, too
