[Q] Back on track after phone bricked - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Senario: Bricked my phone, finally managed it to work with some guide.
Problem: The version is wrong, It says:
MODEL NUMBER:
samsung-SGH-I777
Baseband version:
I9100XXKI4
Kernel:
2.6.35.7
Build number:
gingerbread.UCKH7
I have a swedish samsung GT-I9100 S2. Where do I get the right version and how do I install it?

looks like that is an at&t rom, just get one from the intratech thread and flash it.

[Q] "This version of this device cannot be updated" - ZSKF4

Hey guys,
For some reason, Kies isn't letting me update.
It says: "This version of this device cannot be updated"
Do you know why this is happening?
These are my specs:
Model Number: GT-I9100
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband Version: I9100XXKE4
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-I9100ZSKF4-CL280225

My CSC is in (KOR) format, and I'm trying to upgrade my firmware from ZSKF4 to ZSKI3, which is an upgrade from 2.3.3 to 2.3.5, anyone know what the problem is?
Thanks,
Nicholas

2.3.6 unavailable - unlocked international phone

Hello,
I have an unlocked international version of the Galaxy S2 / i9100.
I received a message telling me to check for OTA updates. However, when I check it it tells me there are no updates available.
Unlocked phones are supposed to get the updates first, so I wonder why I'm not getting the 2.3.6 update.
This is the information it shows (it isn't rooted or anything):
Model: GT_I9100
Android Version: 2.3.4
Base band version: I9100XXKI1
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKI4-CL575468 [email protected] #2
Compilation number: GINGERBREAD.XWKI4
Thanks in advance for your help.

Their is no update for your phones product code it could not be simpler than that .

I don't think we will see 2.3.5 or 2.3.6. We'll get the ICS update first though.

What do you mean by nearest version?
And you can very well upgrade to any version you like 4.0 or even 4.1 and also revert back if you are not happy...
The process is same for any version you want to upgrade to...

Hi, have followed your advise, have another question.
Based from my phone info below, can i upgrade it to ICS PDA: I9100DXLP7 and CSC: I9100OLBLP7 from another country. I think XW is not from our region that's why i can't upgrade it via KIES. Now, if i want to upgrade it, i'll use PDA: I9100DXLP7 and CSC: I9100OLBLP7 which is from our region. Can you advise me on this? Thanks in advance...

[Q] New to root, also wierd kernel

[SOLVED]
Hey, I have read a few articles, but im worried about bricking my phone.

_________________________________________
I whant to do this properly, but I don't know how...
Questions:
1- Is my phone the International version one?
2- The LPG (in bold) is what matters to the CFRoot, or what does matter?
3- The "CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-v5.3-CWM5.zip" doesn't fit my phone because of the sgs2 and LPQ?
4- Can you find me a suitable CFRoot?
5- If I put the Siyah insted, what shoul be the version?
6- Do I need to use ODIN with Siyah?
Please answer all of my questions
Sorry if my English isn't the best, im not a native speaker.
I don't know to answer your questions, but if you actually want to upgrade your software you better do it now before you root, because if you upgrade your rooted phone software you will lose the root.
Also the kernel is not weird. That is a stock kernel.

[Q] Please help! I want to root my SHW-180S!

Hi, I got this new Galaxy Tab from Korea and I'm wondering how am I supposed to root it? I have no experience on rooting whatsoever, so I really need exact and guaranteed instructions. I tried rooting my tab twice, it ended in a Coma Brick twice and I had to send it to Samsung Help desk twice to repair it.
Here's my Specs:
Model Number: SHW-M180S
Firmware Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: M180S.FE18.1503.ST
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #2
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.UF08
I need precise and accurate information. Thank you.
Not really sure if this is the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 since its Gingerbread 2.3.6. Stock Galaxy Tab 10.1 comes with Honeycomb 3.1.

Well considering... according to Google that it's a Samsung Galaxy 7 SHW-M180S Korea
If your trying to root and flash a rom from here might explain why you had to send it back twice...
Head over to here and take a look!
