[Q] - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi fnds. . .
Recently i bought sgs2,i am new to android software,i want to know about,
what is rooting ?
What is the use of rooting ?
And what r roms,how to use them in mobile. . . .?
These all ques r irritating me,plz help me to know,what are these. . . .
Thank u. . .

Read Q&A section.
Rooting is a facility which will allow you administrative access to the device thus you will be able to play with the system files.
Different ROM's are for different purposes, unless you are crazy about them I'd advice you to stay on Stock ROM. A Custom ROM is nothing but a modified version of a Stock ROM having it's own advantages and disadvantages.
Regards.

DEV Section
No Fromal rom listed in search .
jje
the formal rom is not here
i mean i want to change my rom to another formal rom , is it going to accept update normally and formally ?
What is a formal rom ???
Do you mean the rom that came branded with the phone or a custom rom .
In either case the answer is as already given you may not always be able to update that rom via KIES .You may need to update via ODIN .

Not in the right section but....
Usually with custom ROMS you cant update your phone. Before any ROM install you should have made a Backup of the stock ROM. If you didn't, go to sammobile.com and search for your stock firmware. Keeping in mind of your location and everything.
After that flash through ODIN.

How about reading the identical thread posted In Question and Answers today noob rooting .
But really you need to read and learn the basics before anything rooting is not some magic potion .

. Sorrt if i m eing stuoid but i really dont wanna brick my new device :/ thanks
Then read the basics first 30 seconds does not give you any knowledge .
Use CF root from development is probably the simplest method if you follow the instructions .But i fail to see why you want to root a device when you dont even know what root is .
jje
I read it all, i know what rooting is about, i wanna root, but at the sametime i dont wanna brick my device! I want adocker, titanium backup
Thank you for ur time
if you read it all, then you already know how to root, and that you posted in the wrong section
Its like we should beg you for little help?? EXCUSE ME if i posted in the wrong section its not a big deaal! I thought it was a site for helping noobs like me sorry for bothering u but i expected more help from u guys..
You have all needed help in the threads that were outlined for you. Read and make. That's all. We won't write for the 123456th time things already present everywhere on the internet. I personally used Samsung s3 toolkit that you can find in original android dev stickies thread.
I just followed what is written.
Noone is going to spoonfeed you, go read it yourself like we all did

[Q] Bought an S3 Clone and the software if confusing .

Hello friends and fellow seniors of the xda-developers ,
I just bought an S3 clone about 2 months old already . And am not sure if i can root it as the software is rather confusing .
Model Number : I9300
Android Version : 4.1.1
Baseband Version : MAUI.11AMD.W11.50.SP.V20,2012/10/25
Kernel Version : 3.0.13 [email protected]#100 THU OCT 25 12:12:12 CST 2012
Build Number : Gingerbread.zkis3
I do know though that 4.1.1 is a jellybean software and yet gingerbread.zkis3 is most likely to be a samsung galaxy s2 2.3.5 .
Is there and ways , or is it possible to change it ? Because i wanna upgrade it to 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 jelly bean .
And i really wanna root it . My phone keep saying i dont have enough device storage . My SD card just used 1% of 8gb . And my 16gb still has 14gb left . Either way i still wanna root it . Please help me anyone . /:
If there is someway to change all that and root it . Please let me know ASAP . Please and Thank You !

Your phone is not Samsung and not I9300 .
Nothing for you in this forum .
You need to find a forum for your phone this forum and its firmware and root is not for your phone .
Try find fake SGS3 clone forum .

Ohh okay . Thank you . Can you recommend me one forum or one good site that can solve this kind of problems ? Or can't xda-developers develop a new firmware for this ? I can roughly pay 20 USD$ . Im not bribing . I just want my phone to be at least get rooted . /:
You appear to have missed the whole point of XDA, it isn't about providing a paid service but about helping other people with your own experiences and knowledge.
It is unlikely that anyone here reads or knows about fake S3 forums, neither will they be able to help you with your specific problems.
You would do better to put your $20 toward a genuine S3.
Ohh alright . Sorry about that . I'll delete this thread then .
How do i delete this thread ?
report it
Can i ask something else ? Oh and i found the s3 clone forum . I cant delete the thread i wrote there . Because i thought i was replying here .
Sorry if i was cross post or hijack someone elses post .. I just dont know what or where to ask these kinds of questions .
What do i press/touch if i got into factory mode ( pressed volume up + home button + power ) ?
Because anything i touch/press wont tell me the version or anything ?
And anyways , which one should i look into ?
Full test , Item test , Test Report , Clear eMMC , or Version ?
This is the link to the forum of SGS3 clone that has been rooted .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41257809&posted=1#post41257809
again, you won't get answers here, this is the i9300 forum, and your "device" has nothing in common with it

How can we tell you you dont have a SGS3 its fake a pretend phone and does not work the same as I9300.
Above link is not a Forum for SGS clone its Android Development and Hacking Q&A .
Ask in that thread the users who have a fake SGS3 may know .
