For Mobile Odin Lite app, you have to install the FlashKernel I9100 v2.0 apk.
Does this work on your phone?
I have read your post in Mobile Odin thread and had in mind that this did not work either.
You have to download the FlashKernel zip file, extract with 7zip (you know it now) and copy the apk file to your phone.
Then click the apk file on your phone (with any explorer app, or stock My Data app) and click "Install".
If you are rooted, the FlashKernel I9100 v2.0 app should be installed.
After that, install Mobile Odin Lite app (the same way).
I would always recommend to check the free/lite version first before buying the paid/pro app.
Good luck !
i already found the right add on apk and installed it, its all set up and ready to go, just was a little scared that it might have the same problems as the pc odin. i was a little worried that if mobile odin came across a problem that it wouldnt back down and do a bit of damage. i have had to go the hard way round rooting and installing cwm i was worried that there was some type of lock on my kernel from the people that sold me phone. im a newby with galaxy s2. thankyou all for you help
thankyou, i took a chance and tried, just updated from GB 2.3.4 to GB 2.3.6 with mobile odin and it seems to have worked, made me sweat a bit with this week old phone but all seems to be well thanks again guys

flash problem
I unpacked the file and i put it in to PDA field and flashed it, but it gives me an error "fails" . Previously i flashed it with 4 files including pit file it flashed sucessfully "pass". But this time i don't have an pit file. Is it causing this matter I means the pit file?
What should i do to re flash my phone through odin?
Thank you friends
.pit file is ONLY for repartition, NOT for normal flashing!

What is the extension of the packed and upacked files?
Packed - zip, rar; unpacked - tar, md5; unpacked firmware file - img, no extension.
It's happened to me before and it's been a dodgy download try downloading it again might help

ODIN help

Hi all,
I am trying to unroot my phone, I have downloaded Odin 3.04, the stock rom and kernel. I got down to it and opening ODIN, but the problem is odin can't detect the rom, I have trying extracting it, and looking for the zip file but neither are recocgnizable by ODIN. I have ni idea what to do, and I need to unroot my phone fast! Thanks for your help!
flashable rom should be a .tar or a .tar.md5

[Q] Failed rooting!

Hi, currently i'm using samsung galaxy s2 with andriod 4.0.3.. i found it lag sometimes so i decided to root it. i have downloaded the CF root file, but when i extracted it, i found only zImage in it. i have followed all the steps from the video and when i was clicking the 'PDA' after i have opened the odin, i selected the file 'CF root file' which is zipped, then i started to root.. the process was successful, but my device couldn't turn on. it is stuck at the text and not showing the yellow triangle. What should i do? :crying:
No no no, the correct file extension for ODIN is .tar or tar.md5. Not .zip
Have you tried accessing either download mode or recovery mode?
Did you even read about Odin before the flash?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I think zimage is only for use with mobile odin.
-------------------------------------------
maybe your an iphone expert
------------------------------------------
Re-flash time it is.
After that, root with ExynosAbuse.

If it was a ZImage file only,and it was Zip,then it was for CWM Recovery.
the 'ZImage' file extracted from the Cf-root zip file can be flashed from PC odin/Mobile odin by putting it on the 'PDA' section

reflash ur ROM.. or download the latest 4.1.2 firmware from sammobile.com and flash it via ODIN
root it with my method..
safest way.. and appllicable in ICS and JB versions
you can also flash the custom kernels like siyah. philz. dorimanx. or apolo (it has a custom recovery)
