[Q] Which insecure Kernel do I need? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sooo...
Baseband Version: i9100XXKE7
Build Number: GINGERBREA.XWKF3

KF3 kernel as thats your firmware .

And If I want to install the 2.3.4 update? Does it need to be KF3? Because I havent found a 2.3.4 KF3 version...

If you want an Insecure kernel for rooting then any one will do. I've used insecure KDD kernel to root every firmware I've had on the device without any problem.

sorry for being a noob
Download lite'ning 3.0 (3.1 has minor issues) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1095274 and install via Odin.
This is a custom ROM designed on top of the stock ROM.

You can download the firmware from that link. NO, it's NOT official. Official version is yet to be released. And you can root it with Chainfire's kernel, both KG1 and KG2 is there.

can i flash it in my Indian SGS2 without voiding warranty?
You can clearly see that the above ones are of different region, I never like them, anyway if you can't wait flash the second one, but it will definitely void your warranty, but you can always put the Stock firmware back to get warranty/servicing.

Dumb question: where to find the good official ROM

Hello fellow XDA-members,
I currently have an S2 with the following system information:
Android: 2.3.3
Baseband: I9100XXKE4
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKE7-CL215725
GINGERBREAD.XWKE7
Updating through Kies won't work, as it said it did not recognise blabla (possibly due root and changed kernel).
I would like to update to the next official rom, with 2.3.5 (or 6, I'm not sure what the latest version was). I'm kind a lost in the maze of all the ROMS and stuff, so could anyone point me to the right next official ROM that I could flash & be up to date to the latest stable android?
Regards,
Paul

Choose the one you want for your country /location 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 .

So for example, I could take the following one, then pick the XEN (Ntherlands) download (I live in Holland, T-Mobile). Do you also need to pick the kernel, or only flash this XEN one?

Stock rom do not need another kernel .
XEN for your location .

I meant, I currently have the "Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKE7-CL215725", some time ago I flashed it to that kernel and applied root. I just only need to download the XEN version ROM, and just flash it, I do not need to download that specific kernel too and flash that before. (So in summary, just flash the rom, not needed to change the kernel I already had).
Thanks
Kernel is part of the firmware package not a separate item .
Kernels posted are not part of the update you flash firmware xxx and you have CSC OS APPS MODEM and KERNEL updated .
You will need to reroot use same kernel number as the one you flash .

Which kernel shall I use for root

Hello,
I want to root my Galaxy II again after the update to Android 4.0.4.
My phone's data is:
PDA: I9100XWLPW
PHONE: I9100XXLQ6
CSC: I9100DBTLPI
Which kernel shall I use for rooting my phone again. I only found a CF-Root Kernel >CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_LPW-v5.5-CWM5.zip< containing a .tar-file from May 2012. I believe, this is an old file and not for use with 4.0.4. But what ist the right kernel? Can you help me?

Why not go for a custom kernel like Siyah, Dream Kernel or Dorimanx? Those can be installed via Odin too.

Flash a custom kernel NOT Cfroot inorder to stay safe from the brick bug.
