Hi all. I've been wondering this for a while.
For you guys who have used them and know how are they...
What's the main difference between them? Which one do you recommende to use?
I was going for kpn, but suddenly some custom roms started using kpo (being able to use kpn as well)
So, which one do you recommend me ? Kpn or kpo?
In case of kpo, it should be kp7 or kp1? ( I guess it's kp1)
Thanks in advance.!
Going by the chronological order i would flash KPO ...
And the only difference between KP7 and KP1 is the CSC
KP1 has the Canada csc , where KP7 is Russian
Hello friends,
I am living in Israel and got the SC-02 (a friend brought me from Japan).
I put on the phone the operating system ICS (Open Europe - the offial version).
I notice that i got no GPS working , and i got some cellular reception problems (some times delay in calls, calls are cut in the middle and sometimes no reception at all).
From what i have read in this forum i understand that the SC-02 got different hardware and memory from the Eruropian version.
Does anyone knows where can i find an official ICS sutiable for my phone including instructions ?
I found some unofficial guids, for Cyanomode + SC-02 kerenels , but the instructions seems very complicated and unclear...(i didnt root my cell phone).
If this is the only choice that i have got.. does anyone know of a good instructions link (or can tell here in simple words what have to be done ?)
I will relly appreciate any help ...please..
Many thanks ,
Ran

Hi Ran,
I too have been gifted with a SC-02c in Israel.
My first recommendation is that you try and give it back. You REALLY REALLY want the international version which is the version used in Israel. Failing that cry a little after you have finished with that.
1) You can actually burn the local versions of the firmware but you need to preserve the
- Kernel of the SC-02c
- Modem of the Sc-02c
If you do that everything will work fine minus the FM radio and NFC
See following link for help :
---www&japanmobiletech&com_search_label_SC-02C---
replace & with .
Replace _ with\
2) Don't break the screen as you will not be able to easily replace the screen in Israel as the chassis of the SC-02c and the international version are not the same.
The solution: I let you know in a few days as I have to replace mine.
Hi , Many thaks
Nice to know that other guys in Israel already encounter the same problem.
I have ICS (Open Europ ) on my device now.
Can you please explain how can i change the kernnel and modem version ?
Shell i do it with Udin ? where can i find the correct kernnel and modem version for
the SC-02C (does it suit with ICS ?) ? I Cant see the link you put here ..
Thanks,
Ran

SC-02c in ISrael
See instructions at the website I gave you. I had to change the "." and "\" as this forum won't allow me past links at the moment.
It explains how to burn "kernel & modem" and using heimdall
You can use the Kernel from Siyah which will give you root access and other neat features. If you want to use the "original" kernel & modem you need to find the ICS version of sc-02c at website
samsung-updates&com_category_news
but I wouldn't bother just use the version from Siyah.
Let me know how you go.
Hi,
After aloog try i cusseded in flashig the ICS official ROM (from sammobile the V. from 16 June). I needed to configure again the partitions (Via original SC-02C PIT file) , after that i turn into old android version (2.3.6) and after that the ICS.
For now everthig is working fine exept from the GPS..
I use :
Model no :SC-02C
Android version : 4.0.3
Baseband Version : SC02COMLPG
Kernel version : [email protected]#3 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jun 13 20:42:11 KST
Build no : IML74K.OMLPG
While i am doing reset (boot) for my cell l see the Samsung i9100 icon in the first screen , any idea way ?
Any idea what is the problem with the GPS ?
Many thanks ,
Ran
Thats It guys !!
I download the "GPS Status" application . I did --> tools-->Manage A-GPS state
Reset , and afterwards --> Download (to get GPS assistance from network).
Now the GPS is working , and everything is fix (with the official ICS ).
Thanks for all !!:laugh:
Excellent.
Actually you can change to the official "Orange - Israel" ICS if you want.
Where can I find the GPS Status app on PLAY ?
Regards
I can get a used i9100P, which is apparently branded by a local carrier (TIM).
Can this one be modded and customized like the regular i9100 or will I have problems with firmware updates and modding?
Please explain to me in a detailed way what I should need to know before getting it and if I should get a regular i9100 instead.
Hi,
better get the "real" one - gt - i9100
same probs as with the i9100G - M - T ... whatever. most developements are based on and for the "real" sgs2

Hi,
I have a galaxy ace 2 (i8160).
When I bought it, it came with a Polish rom - with all sorts of Polish software.
I'd like to format it and put a NZ rom on it - but can't locate one (strange - as they are sold in nz by the telcos).
My question: Always been confused about this - can I put any standard rom on the phone (like for example a UK one)?
Can anyone recommend anything please.
Thanks,
Ian
I have next question to which im not able to find answer here. Pls :
I got married ( Im UK origin) and moved to Turkey. Due the certain internal rules Im standing here longer than i/we supposed. After 6 months from registration of my HTC ( weird..very weird) my HTC stopped working and they told me I have only one possibility - to buy new phone in turkey.
So OK..grr.. I bought Samsung GS3, rooted it ..etc. Like every my phone. Now I have here fiirmware update and BIG ??? :
Can I use firmware for UK or I MUST use firmware for Turkey and switch to english only?
Simply : I wamt instal UK version and ROM for UK and not turkey. Is there any danger for my phone if Ill do it ?
