Good Day!
I just picked up a shiney new Galaxy S II from ATT (from my iPhone 4). I've had various Android tablets, and rooted many droid phones (including the Vibrant I had a week).
However I'm unsure which CF-root to use with this baby, and I don't want to brick it.
Under Settings, About Phone this is what is listed.
Android Version
2.3.4
Baseband
I777UCKH7
Kernel Version
2.6.35.7
My understanding is the CF-Root I need would use KH7, but I haven't found one (at least in the CF-Root thread, but its 200+ pages long!)
Any information would rock my world and save quite a bit of time for me!
Thank you!
Hey there
XDA created a new forum for AT&T SGS2 located here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1301 I just did a quick check and see a few rooting threads under development you might want to check out. This forum is for the international galaxy s ii so you most likely won't find the kernel you're looking for to root here since its technically a different model with the soft key buttons and all. I believe Codeworkx created a rooting solution over there
Hope this helps
Thank you, not 5 minutes after I posted this did I find the link to the other forums! rock on xda!
I just got it... can u send me the link?
I have the same problem, do you think you can send me the link to download it?? thanks!
Cf-Root fot ATT SGS2
I have the same problem, do you think you can send me the link to download it?? thanks!

You may have mistaken this site for Samsung Support. It isn't.
Folks on here help out of a sense of community, they don't get paid for it.
The person you just told to feck off is very knowledgeable and answers a heck of a lot of questions nearly every day.
I am on the same T-Mobile UK network as you and have downloaded from here the very ROM you are looking for, although that has been updated since them. I could easily do the same search on here and point you the link, but would you know what to do with the file? Or have you already fully read the Odin flashing instructions on here?
My first time here was with the HTC Compact III, I read for at least a week all the stickies at the top of each section. When I was sure I wanted to flash a rom, I read and re-read the thread and was as well prepared as I could be.
I am deeply indebted to all those developers and the more knowledgeable on here, who turn my phone into something very special. The least I can do is search before I ask, because nearly every question has already been asked.
i know what to do

The BOKE3 was the origonal firmware for the T-Mobile UK SGSII.
BOKF3, BOKG2 and BOKK1 are revised firmwares.
The stock kernels are there if you have rooted your phone with a CF-Root kernel and then reflash with the stock kernel to get rid of the warning triangle at bootup.
The one you are looking for is not a T-Mobile UK ROM, but rather a Samsung Stock ROM for Europe. Flashing that would invalidate the phone's warranty (if you had to take it back to service). That said, that ROM is really old. For newer versions of Samsung stock ROM then look * HERE *
you are good

This rom will get your phone back up and running!!
!!WARNING!!

This is a WORK IN PROGRESS!!!
Please feel free to help me make this rom better!
P.S.
This is not a STOCK ROM I was lucky enough to build one from parts and pieces of other stock firmware's that are available for download. Only use this rom if you turned your SM-S820L into a $120.00 bookmark!. As of right now there is no Stock firmware for this device and lots of other straight talk phones also.

Given the pain of trying to make this phone somewhat functional and something that resembles the level of customisation that I am used to I am thinking I might attempt to root my device. I am pretty sure by doing so I can get Android Auto working, utilise a better launcher along with change my default sms / dialler and then hopefully also shut down a lot of the other limiting Oppo Security functions.
I am just wondering whether anybody has installed a custom recovery and rooted their Find N yet?
The only functionality I am worried about breaking would be my mobile payments / banking apps, but I am 99% sure there are ways to avoid this..
Any help / advice is greatly appreciated!
Interested to see how you get on with this
The main issue I see is that Google Pay would likely stop working on a rooted device; and whilst I can deal with Android Auto not working (though a deal breaker for some), and I'm pretty happy with the default launcher and default dialer/sms apps, etc.; not having Google Pay working would be a deal breaker for me.
Before doing the root, we need to have the boot.img file so it can be patched. The issue I encounter is that I didn't find it anywhere. Has anyone managed to find the official Find N firmware yet?
Ok and its an old version but i Saw those links onnanother websites (kiné ofnarabic one) but cant found anymore
I tried with the Oplus Upgrade Tool but i cant find downgrade option or link
That's a shame. Not sure how to get an invite...
I purchased an invitation code and got access to the site, however the file is actually for an OPPO A93, haha. Hopefully they respond to my post with an accurate link

Thanks konkoro! I actually managed to get a copy of this last night. Also, was it you who just responded via email to my request to ask for it to be uploaded? If so I really appreciate your efforts in organising that..
I have managed to extract the boot.img from this firmware (along with a previous version), although I am still trying to confirm that they are actually for the Find N (peum00). Details within the firmware suggest that it might not be (although I realistically do not know what I am looking at / for..) Also, my phone doesn't recognise this firmware when I attempt to locally upload it for a software update, but I understand that could be because I could be already on a later release of it. However, both of the firmware files names don't appear to match in any way (or even seem similar) to what the device says it has installed
Are you able to confirm with certainty that this is in fact firmware for the Oppo Find N - peum00?
Thanks again!

No, I found it by chance and just informed.
I'm not sure whether it's a real.

Yeah I can see that.. My confusion is due to a couple of things, but as I was discussing with you the other day - I just want to be 100% certain
Realistically the dates of the firmware look right (mentioned within the name), the firmware also references the Qualcomm SM8350 processor which is reassuring. However it does also mention Samsung a lot.. (Quite possibly referring to other hardware within the phone though). Also as mentioned above, my phone doesn't recognise it, but that is probably due to other reasons.
Realistically until someone figures out how to unlock the bootloader the firmware isn't much use yet anyway.. However once this can be done, it will be critical that it is the correct firmware so the right boot.img can be patched / flashed to prevent bricking the device.
Yes it’s 100% for PEUM00.
Regard SM8350.. are you trying with firehose..? Oppo has used sign firehose so you can’t use with other model firehose and it’s also have to be same hash.

Awesome
Yeah I have looked, but I cannot find a signed SM8350 / PEUM00 / Oppo firehose file anywhere. I think this is where the root process is likely to stall for a while (if not forever )

This may be a stupid question, but did you enable "OEM unlock" on the "Developer options" ?

Unfortunately there's a bit more to it than that. That setting is pretty much irrelevant these days, as Oppo / Qualcomm have disabled the ability to be able to unlock the bootloader in the traditional fashion.

Damn, I read the article and in fact, it is almost impossible to unlock the bootloader.
But I was reading the step-by-step "How to Install Magisk on your Android Phone" document (maybe a "little" outdated) on https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-magisk/ and that left me thinking: what if we decompress the OFP firmware file, patch the boot.img file using Masgisk app, create again the OFP firmware and flash it again the OFP using the Realme Flash Tool?
Do you think this is doable?
I was able to decompress the OFP file and patch the boot.img file, but I didn't search how to compress again the files into OFP format.
