Help Am i the only one having trouble with kies?

[feelinfroggy23]

I've used kies before im familure with it. I have attempted to root my device a couple times and was successful. But i tripped my flash counter so all i did was restore the back up i made before rooted. So that unroots me and puts me back to stock right? So now the ics update is here and whenever i plug in to kies it just says no firmware. Am i the only one? Could it take sometime for me to get it maybe? Help please. Thx

From the information Samsung provided, it says you can Update only for I727UCKK1, I727UCKJ2 or I727UCLA3 Baseband Versions.

May be you can revert back to 2.3.5 and then try running a firmware upgrade through KIES.

I'm having a problem with Kies - I downloaded it and it said it had an update, which I did. After giving it my admin password it started the Kies update but now is stuck at 100% and has been like this for the past 15 minutes. I can't even start to switch to ICS!

I've attached a screenshot - my computer is a MBA.

This is incredibly frustrating - any help would be appreciated. I have already tried uninstalling Kies multiple times.

I had the same problem but there is a way of upgrading to 4.0.4 without first going back to 2.3.5. Follow these steps as stated in XDA How to return/upgrade to AT&T 100% Stock ICS 4.0.4 through KIES - xda-developers,

I have I727UCLE2 and it says my device does not support software upgrading via Kies and i am at 2.3.5
Does anyone know what I need to do to be able to update?

I reinstalled Kies and then did the ics update last night and it worked a lot better. I also updated to the latest version of Kies after I reinstalled it.

I have been having similar issues with the Kies software. Mine simply will not update to the newest version of Kies. Therefore i cannot update my phone. After a 30 minute phone call with Samsung, i was simply told that "Due to the high volume of people accessing the Kies server, updates may be temporarily unavailable." This was the forth employee i had spoken to. The third one told me there was no update for the Skyrocket. I have deemed that Samsung technical support is filled with morons.
