[Q] Reset to Swedish FW so Kies recognize it? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
I'm trying to reset my friend's phone so that Samsung Kies can recognize the right region so he can update it himself when ICS is released in Sweden easily with Kies.
I've done that many many times on my SGS but now it doesn't work on his Note
I've downloaded the "right" file from sammobile.com (official fw)
(GT-N7000 - Nordic countries
PDA: N7000XBKK4
CSC: N7000OXXKK5
Version: 2.3.6
Date: 2011-11-01
Regions: Denmark, Norway, Sweden)
The name of the file before I unzip is "N7000XBKK4_N7000OXXKK5_NEE" and it's only one file .tar.md5 to put in Odin after unzip. When I start Samsung Kies it says that it's (KOR) and not (NEE) as it should be, and that I can't update this device.
Anyone have any tips?
And another thing, it didn't do a factory reset by it self so I did if in Recovery!?!
Love //Ante

please someone??

dial *#272"IMEI"# without the quotes, then change the CSC to NEE or whatever region you are in. WARNING: This will perform a factory reset, all data will be lost
to get your IMEI dial *#06#

[Q] HELP! radio down after flashing firmware

Hi,
I'm newbie with SGS, I tried to flash an official italian firmware 2.2.1 with Odin and 3 files. Everything appears ok, but now the phone module don't starts. On notification bar only a no-entry sign. Wifi works fine.
With *#1234# shows:
PDA: I9000RSJS2
PHONE: UNKNOWN
CSC: I9000ITVJS1
BUILD INFO: 2011.01
With *2767*4387264636# shows:
service mode... nothing.
Originally, the product code was from a portuguese device, the firmware a 2.1-update1 release.
Any chance to recover the situation? The phone enters in download & recovery mode...
Have you checked to see whether your APN settings are correct?

Phone should be I9000XXJPY, like all european 2.2.1 ROMS
Try to flash the modem only, check in ODIN that it lists modem.bin as being copied to the device.
Yes, I've tried to reflash a h3g rom (I have a h3g sim).
And it is not an apn problem, I can't access the phone signal at all, I get only a no-entry simbol on tray notification and can't make calls. Now it's getting to be a bit worried...

Hi,
originally I think to remember something like WTY, or WTI... in the box there are 2 manuals, 1 in english and 1 in portuguese... that's why I thought it could by portuguese firmware. The one I fashed was JPY, like you said.
The roms I downloaded in the package contains a modem file in this format: MODEM_I9000XXJPY.tar.md5. Not .bin. Can I flash it alone, with no pit file and "re-partition" option disabled? That's correct?
Thanks to all for your attention.
Another try, I flashed a JP1 radio from recovery, the process has gone well, but the phone still seems to not recognize radio. After *#1234#:
PDA: I9000RSJS2
PHONE: UNKNOWN
CSC: I9000ITVJS1
BUILD INFO: 2011.01
The telephone does not show the IMEI with *#06#... nothing.
Have to send it to assistance?

[Q] Out-of-box + This version of the device cannot be updated

I have a 2 week old Galaxy Tab which Kies refuses to update I did not mess with it in any way, no root, no aftermarket firmware whatsoever...
Current firmware version: PDA:JMG / PHONE:JMA / CSC:JM6 (LUX)
Model number: GT-P1000
Firmware version: 2.2
Baseband version: P1000XXJMA
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9; [email protected] #1
Build number: FROYO.XWJMG
I got it in Belgium which is where I live but the firmware version says LUX which I assume means Luxembourg. Could this be my problem?
*#272*IMEI# choose your country CODE and press install , this is will wipe everything in your tab .... then check the kies after that
Thanks! I'm trying this as we speak, do you have any idea which sales code to use for Belgium? I tried EUR, it seems logical (Europe?), but I will try them all if I have to -- I'll report back later
Edit: it's not EUR, it shows some weird alphabet, Greek I think I'll keep trying!
Edit 2: PHN gave a Dutch interface but Kies refused to update it as well, so I'll keep on trying different codes
So I tried doing the sane thing (instead of checking each code separately and waiting 2-3 minutes for the device to reset) and looked up every code and the corresponding country. Here's what I got:
YOG (Spain)
XEO (Poland)
XEH (Hungary)
VDH (Hungary)
TPH (Portugal)
SUN (Switzerland)
PHN (Netherlands)
OPT (Portugal)
MOZ (Switzerland)
LUX (Luxemburg)
IRD (Slovakia)
FOP (Spain)
EUR (Greece)
CYO (Cyprus)
COS (Greece)
AUT (Switzerland)
ATO (Austria)
No Belgium... Does this mean I will never be able to update my tab?
I tried LUX (which is a neighbouring country and the code that came with the device) and PHN (which uses the same language and is also a neighbouring country) but when connected to KIES both refused to update
its mean you have to flash your firmware or ask from anyone to give you the CSC files that has your country that in case you are rooted and have CWM i doubt you don't have
so
in second chance follow my guide to flash your stock firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133590
u must download your firmware , from samfirmware.com but before download any one , check if it has your country or no , by this link http://www.samfirmware.com/samfit.htm
start to copy the firmware code from each firmware up there and see if its for your country or no ....
is that so hard ?
Did you buy the tab from a carrier? This configuration looks like it was made by a carrier or a specialised business. Is it a work tab i.e you got it from work.
In your country the out of the box new tabs should be PDA: JMG Phone: JMF CSC: JMG

now he is yours , you are the pro with kies update
lol, I used up all my Google-fu and searched everything I could think of.
Anyway, I know how to root and flash custom firmwares -- I've done it with another Samsung -- but I just wanted to do this one the "official" easy way. But it looks like KIES won't play nice
To answer your question, I won the tab so I didn't buy it from a carrier nor was it SIM-locked. I'll see if I can find a JMG/JMF/JMG .zip somewhere and report back later -- thanks
cannot update out of box
even i purchased a galaxy tab from dubai but when i connected to kies it said my version of device could not be updated. but then i followed this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13682956&mode=linear#post13682956 to install gingerbread and now everything is working fine, market and everything else works fine but the pda field and csc field shows empty when i dial *#1234# .
Both of you have to flash a stock rom and repartition.
But if you have to do that, why not just flash stock gingerbread?

It's the exact same work to upgrade using kies as it is to flash a custom (or stock) rom using odin3 1.7 (or heimdal).
So in what way is it a pain?
u mean to say if i flash my tab with a stock rom then it can be later updated using kies when further updates are available.

I agree -- it's just that I was curious as to why this would happen with an out-of-box stock device.
I know how to use Odin (that is, I know how to follow a tutorial ), I've used it before to flash an Eclair to Froyo, but I'm not sure which ROM to use. I'm on samfirmware.com and downloaded P1000XXJMQ (2.3.3) -- is this the one I should use?
To be honest, I don't even know which samfirmware.com ROM I would need to revert to my current firmware version (PDA:JMG / PHONE:JMA / CSC:JM6)... I think it's either P1000XXJM6 (because of the CSC:JM6) or P1000XWJMG (because of the PDA:JMG)... It's confusing me
So I have 2 questions:
Is P1000XXJMQ a stock Gingerbread?
What ROM do I need in case I want to downgrade to my current firmware? P1000XXJM6 or P1000XWJMG or another one? Edit: I did *#1234# and assume it's P1000XWJMG.
By the way, CSC = Country Sales Code? (just a guess)
Edit: I'm going to flash P1000XXJMQ, I hope I don't brick it, wish me luck I'm a nervous wreck, I drank way too much coffee this morning
Edit 2: the one that samfirmware.com says is JMQ is actually JQ1... still looking for JMQ because I think that's a newer version
Okay, here's an update on what I've done so far and on the outcome...
The link for P1000XXJMQ on SamFirmware was actually P1000XXJQ1 so I went with that one.
According to SamFIT it's for the following regions: Austria, Benelux, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain; which includes Belgium.
I ran Odin3 v1.7 with Re-Partition, Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time; I used PIT file gt-p1000_mr.pit and PDA file P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJPZ_HOME.tar; etc.
Long story short, I'm running Gingerbread but still no sales code for Belgium when I *#272*IMEI#... so KIES keeps refusing to update. It doesn't really matter now because I'm running the latest but I'd like to fix this for future updates.
I searched a lot but I must be doing something wrong. Can anyone give me some advice?

What message does kies state? Is it "latest firmware" or "cannot be updated"?
If it says "latest" then no update yet is available. If "cannot update" then your CSC does not match any firmware combination with samsung...
If you read samfirmware FAQ they have stated that the firmware they post is not official so they don't actually say that samsung recognizes them.

So far it's always been "cannot be updated". I knew it was a CSC problem, I just don't know where to get the right firmware. That's why I asked if P1000XXJMQ is a stock Gingerbread. I'm going to try and find a stock fw and flash it.
Edit: is this the right one: [stock rom][2.3.3] p1000xxjq1 p1000xxjq1 p1000xxjpz ?
JQ1 is stock for Italy

Firmware upgrade is not supported by Kies.WTF??

When I plug my phone to the computer it connects to Kies but it comes up with this message.
The phone was bought from Handtec UK they seem to have bought these from Poland and the startup language is Swiss.
The firmware on the handset is not region coded that's why Kies does not update the phone eg the firmware number should have (xeu) or (dbt) (specific to region for eg dbt is for germany) after it specifying the region, this one doesn't.
I'm going to send mine back as I don't want to root this phone.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Same here. But i thought an update would be available later?
Dont worry friends. When update for galaxy note is available in your region, ur installed version of KIES will be updated to support the upgrade. Theres nothing wrong with your devices.
Are on a Mac? The OSX version of Kies doesnt support firmware upgrades.

I don't think so, when there is no update it usually says you are on the current firmware.
this is a problem with the region coding. These devices don't have a region code ID suffix. For eg: XEU, DBT, XXF, ROM. These basically tell Kies what region the device is from. If that is missing there is no way Kies can update cos it will not understand what region the device is from. I think I'm right, pls correct me if I'm wrong
Thank you.

Um. I have a Handtec Polish Note.
Kies gives me the "Your device does not support software upgrading by Kies" message.
Doing a *#272*imei#* (Display/change CSC code) displayed region KOR.
I changed it to XEU but no go, just made my phone hard reset.
Device still unsupported.
Maybe it won't work in Australia.
This won't matter in the long run.
Success.

So root is the only way? we are f*ucked!

I changed the CSC Code (kies wont allow you to upgrade if you have KOR code, as this is the generic one and it is not linked to any region)
Just type type in *#272*IMEI# in your dialer (IMEI=your IMEI number)and it will come up a menu to choose the CSC.
I choose DBT (Germany) and after that was able to update via Kies.
NOTICE THAT CHANGING THE CSC CODE WILL RESET YOUR TERMINAL AND YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR DATA (factory reset).

[Q] Note and csc

Hi,
After having changed usb port at the service, they also reload firmware to my note device. When I came home, noticed that Kies does not
recognize the firmware loaded by service.
The details from *#1234# are:
PDA: N7000XXLSZ
PHONE: N7000XXLSO
CSC: N7000OJVLSB
Build info: Thu Feb 14:01:51 KST 2013
From Settings --> about
Android version: 4.1.2
Kernel version 3.0.31-906407
Beaseband: N7000XXLSO
Build number: JZ054K.N7000XXLSZ
I dont remeber the previous frimware details, but it was recognized by Kies and I was able to upgrade if a new frimware arrived.
Further search leaded to incorret CSC and solution given was to type :
*#272*IEMI# and change CSC code for Turkey.
Did not use the last 2 digit which is / 01
But got error msg saying "Unkown application"
How to proceed from this point on ?
How can I change the CSC ?
Does 4.1.2 not allow CSC change ?
try this
and be ready for a wipe.
Thanks for the info, the problem is that, I dont want my phone as rooted. There must be a way withhout root authority.
Why *#272*iemi# does not work in my case ? I'm sure my iemi is correct and not entered the last 2 digit / 01 .
That code doesnot work since JB.

Hımm,
What about using Odin 3.07 and downloading Firmware : N7000XXLSZ CSC : N7000OJVLSB from sammobile.com ?
This will be my first use of Odin, and appyling firmware with it. Is it risky ? Does it cause any counter increase in Node ? ( for serviceability )
That should work.. Try flashing the stock firmware under csc tab. If that does not work then try the normal way..
Flashing stock doesnot increase counter..

nb. It will be the first time with Odin, soory about the questions.

Going crazy ))
Downloaded Odin and proper stock code from sammobile.com for my country.
Used Odin to upload my phone with the ( so caled) new code. ( selected PDA for all code ) Everything went poperly. The code updated with success ...
I notice, you said only CSC but I've chosen PDA for all code to be updated. Did not dare to check only CSC, sorry.
Phone rebooted, and I was expecting the problem to be solved.
But:
Kies still says : Your devices current firmwre version is not supported to update firmware via Kies....
Another interesting thing is that, all the applications are there . I thought it should be a clean start w/o any addtl appl. intstalled by me.
Can this be the clue ?
I'm stuck ..
What am I doing wrong ?
Flashing a JB rom will not wipe anything. It will retain your apps and data.
Check if the csc has changed or not. If not, then it's best to root and use csc changer. Then you can flash the rom again like you did to remove root.

The problem with root is, my note is still under warranty, at least for one more year. I also found Framaroot but it also violates warranty.
I think, the best way is to revisit the service dept of Samsung and ask them to reload the proper stock rom .
I didnt want to revisit service, since it takes too much time to get the phone back from them
JB does not support *#272*iemi#
The rom I found from sammobile.com for my country somehow not the proper one. pda: xxlsz phone: xxlso csc: JVLSB
Couldnt found what LSB stands for anywhere.
Looking stock rom for Turkey.
So, behave as a nice customer and visit the service dept Pitty ...
