Can't update from MEA to MF8 (DBT) via OTA and KIES? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey peepz,
I've tried to find updates via KIES and OTA, but it keeps saying that I've got the latest firmware installed (XXUBMEA (DBT)). Why can't KIES and OTA find the new MF8 update?

Is your phone rooted??? If yes, Kies will not let u update....

But then I'll have to re-setup multi window-mod and greenify and stuff. Make system apps user apps. I really don't like the idea of doing that all again haha

so i think problem solved
It might mean you are on the latest fw.. but atleast for me, my phone was still on JF3, the post bellow helped me to get the JM1 fw, while previously i was getting the same message as you.
No links allowed for me yet.. The title of the post is "Kies firmware update without using (all of) Kies!"

What is the latest UK Unbranded firmware

What is currently the latest UK I9505 firmware at the moment. I have I9505XXUAMDM, but see I9505XXUBMGA floating around being the latest UK firmware, but I don't see it in Kies or OTA.
Thanks

Hi,
MDM is really quite old now.
If you have not got the option to OTA upgrade,you might consider the Pre-rooted ROM
You still remain "Official".

Hi,
If you are still 100% Official (unrooted etc.) , then , talk to your carrier.

Best thing to do imho is uninstall Kies (except the drivers) and flash whatever unbranded Euro rom you want with Odin 3.04. See www.sammobile.com/firmware/1 for available roms.
Thanks, think I'll flash with odin

The latest German unbranded DBT MGA rom is very good, running it myself :good:
Im on Vodafone UK and my phone was still MDM without any kies updates. but had issue with sd slot so sent for repair it came back with MEA which defaults of Korean or something.
I think this is the latest uk Firmware I9505XXUBMGA i flashed it in odin cos kies dont like me lol
i have it in dropbox if u need it quick
I could do with MGA as well please. I'm still stuck on MDM.
