Samsung Galaxy S II GT-I9100LKADBT - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, so I've been searching online to buy myself a S II, and I came to amazon. They had it in stock for $700 CAD. They listed it as a "GT-I9100LKADBT" does anyone know what model this is or what model the phone actually is? Also is this a good one to buy, or does anyone know of a better price somewhere online that ships to Canada? (Im refusing to buy the Bell version). here is the link to the Amazon one, amazon.ca/Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-I9100/dp/B004Q3QSWQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1311354383&sr=1-1

If you simply Google it then the first result is this this post, and seconds is this, http://www.jacob-computer.de/Telefo...ck_-_16GB_(GT-I9100LKADBT)_artnr_1019424.html
Third is,

Now I don't know what language is that, German maybe?

Alright, Im almost certain this is the German version branded by Vodafone.

Yes, DBT is german, also those links are German sites.

How do you know that it is unbranded?

im 100% sure that dbt is for unbranded german phone. branded ones for example EPLUS have EPL instead of DBT...its unbranded no need to be worried about that.

Thanks guys! One final question. Does it matter what version of the phone I get? I mean as long as it has english on it and isn't the UK version which doesn't have NFC, they are all the same. Right?

+1 to that.
You should have got I9100G. Return it ASAP, as I9100 are not covered by Indian Samsung care centers.

Not really. Mine does say I9100 but its actually an I9100T. Its because I flashed I9100 firmware. You can only be sure by checking under the battery.
To the OP, you've got no chance. Samsung as far as I know only honour invoices from official sellers / resellers etc. So buying off eBay or markets etc means no warranty.
Sent from my GT-I9100
Dude, by default all I9100 are known as "International version GS2" unless they are carrier locked or something. Its nothing to worry about.

I want to buy NFC tags. Help please

Since our phones have NFC, I want to buy NFC tags. I'm on www.buynfctags.com. They list 2 types of tags ULC and 1K what is the difference and which one do we need for our phone?
Thanks.
Not sure which model you have but most S2 versions don't have NFC.
Sent from my GT-I9100T
My phone has the NFC option. and also has the TAGS app pre-installed (which let's you program the tags).
Ok. I think you are in the wrong forum. Check the one for the at&t sgsii skyrocket. It's further down the list. This one is for the international model.
Sent from my GT-I9100T
Reading the product blurbs the "1K" device has more memory whereas the "ULC" has Cryptographic features. Some interesting downloads: http://www.nfctags.com/nfc-tags-downloads

Indeed, what sxi200 said above. You have an SGH-I727R. Not a GT-I9100.
I just posted about it in your other thread.
The i9100p has NFC. As far as I know that's orange UK also a T-Mobile US variant. So he is on the right forum LOL if your in the UK mate not many places use NFC here yet. You might have to wait a while.

No. sorry. T-Mobile USA model (SGH-T989) does support NFC, but is a completely different model, which also has its own forum.
And yes, I9100P is the I9100 variant that supports NFC.
BUT, if you had bothered to click on the link in my post, you would have seen that I quoted a post of his in another thread where it was signed that he posted from an SGH-I727R.
So, wrong forum.

Where can I find a Three UK ROM?

Stupidly I never made a backup of my official ROM, and now I'm thinking I should try and get hold of one, in case the phone ever needs to go back.
Any ideas where I can find this specific ROM? I know that when I used to have HTD phones, the ROMs used to get leaked left right & centre, and you could get hold of any service provider ROM for any country quite easily.
I found one on samsungs firmware downloads.

Thanks, my specific ROM (Three UK) doesn't seem to be on the list, gone through it a couple of times but can't see it.
Nonetheless, the link you sent is an impressive resource and I'm sure lots of people will be glad to see it:

Thanks!
Is this the one you're looking for?
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=8&view=4679

you could try here

I believe the one your looking for is th 17th from botton UK H3G
edit:- nvm ratsalad got there 1st lol
Hi
Try www.samfirmware.com
I got mine from there under the name: I9300H3GALE4 united kingdom (H3G)
Got from there as I unrooted my phone
Hope it helps you

Thank you all, you are all correct. I missed the H3G one from the link that brersam initally provided me since I didn't know exactly what I was looking for - most them had a popup description when I mouse-overed.
Right that's given me some peace of mind, thanks all

O2 Unlock

Right sorry if this is in the wrong section, and i do apologies.
Anyway, bought a locked O2 UK one x+, just had the code from O2 UK to unlock the phone, all has worked fine the phone is now not locked to any network.
Just a quick question now, i haven't rooted my phone yet, but if and when i do, and if things do go wrong, will i still have to use the UK O2 RUU or can i use the European Stock Rom RUU ??
Thanks for your time, regarding this matter.

i would stick with the o2 RUU for now, but it don't hurt to try a Euro Stock RUU and let us know the results, worst case it wont flash
Thanks Lloir, will try it on the weekend. Will download both versions just to be on the safe side.
Check your cid mate, if its the same as the cids listed in the android-info.txt in the generic euro RUU, your good to go.

Do you know how to extract the rom.zip from a RUU? Inside the root of the rom.zip is a txt file, read that for the list of compatible cids. But if yours starts 02, it's prob not gunna be compatible

Hey there,
Sorry for the silly question, I bought the same phone from the same store and I wondered how you managed to unlock it, what is this O2 UK Code?

I know what he means, but how did he managed to unlock the phone without losing his warranty? Moreover, he says "just had the code from O2 UK to unlock the phone", where do you get that code from? That is my question. =)

Go to the O2 website, search for unlocking, and just fill the form out, and i received my code within 24 hrs, or just do what Andrhero said phone them up.

I had an O2 handset unlocked but as it was purchased off someone else they wouldnt unlock it (Grrrr!) so i ended up purchasing an unlock code from eBay for £15.
If you want to know the seller PM me due to rules against posting that kind of information.
