That means, you can flash any firmware u want, listed in the site below:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Read the thread carefully, before proceeding.It contains all information in detail.
Just now, You are on KJ3 firmware, which is European.
Also, this is latest, and best, so what else you want to flash on ur phone?
What exactly, u want to do?

Yes, u are on right track.
As far as i am concerned, the KJ3 firmware, (one which you are using) is best.So, if u want stock, hold on to it.
It is the official stock firmware.
But, if u want to try some custom roms, there are many.
One of my favourite is "CHECKROM"
thank you so much for you quick reply....really appreciate.....

Well, i don't have any internet related problem. The download speed is normally very good.
It may be some modem problem. Do one thing, there is an update to KJ3 version available,i.e. KK2, may be that will fix your problem.
Just flash, it according to the procedure, mentioned in the intratech thread(link i posted earlier). Hope this will fix.

GT-I9100 = International unlocked
GT-I9100T = AT&T model
and this topic is in the wrong section
How can it be the AT&T model when I'm using it here in Israel?
They are also used in Australia by Telstra and Vodafone. Only difference is that they need different modems to get reception. You can flash a i9100 stock or custom rom on the T version but will then need to flash a T compatible modem over it.

So just different bands on the GSM spectrum? I flashed CM7 onto my phone before and everything seemed to work.. still I preferred the stock ROM and flashed back. Today I got a text from Cellcom saying there's a new version of firmware out.. so I tried OTA update and got the no new versions message. I also tried Kies and it said "it is not possible to upgrade the firmware on this phone" or something like that. I already have 2.3.5 though...

I'm also in Bangkok and i got i9100T. The difference is the 3G connection of your Carrier. If you are on AIS, you get wrong one. i9100T will not work 3G on AIS and it will work only on DTAC and TRUE as they have different version of 3G signal. If you are not using 3G connection then you have no problem using i9100T else you need to switch to DTAC or TRUE. When I buy my Phone, the Vendor asked me which Carrier I will be using and I asked for AIS. However, they gave me wrong one i9100T and now i have problem with 3G on AIS. It does not work any internet connection when I am at 3G area. My Vendor promise to change on next week. At least I learn what is difference as they gave me wrong model else I may not analyze the difference. Hope this help you too.

Its the same. The only difference is the Model which controls the baseband you use. Just root and flash the international modem so its mostly compatible with all networks.

AT&T's Galaxy S2 is not GT-I9100 or any variants. Its SGH-I777.
GT-I9100T are sold in Every part of the world except the Europe and North/South America. Theres no difference at all from the international version.

+26 . Spot on NZed. A GT9100T is not an AT&T device
Is the hardware on I9100T different than I9100 as far as supported 3G bands ?
If I need 3G bands 850 + 2100 which model should I look for ?

All bands are enabled.
Contrary to NZed;
There is a slight difference between the 9100 and 9100T. Not in hardware, but software. The specific T modems are generally more tuned to the 850MHz band than others due to different SAR levels.

Please read posts 8 and 12 again.
Or read this thread, which goes into some depth about what the differences (negligible) are. You can flash an I9100 ROM to your I9100T phone, but you will probably need to flash I9100T modems afterwards to get decent signal.
Hi everyone, first post here but I assure you I have been searching and searching through this site for some time with no real luck so I decided to post in this thread rather than start a new one as it is closely related.
I too have the i9100T and I can assure you it is not specific to Australia. This model is available all over Asia. I am in Thailand.
I was rooted before and experimented with a few ROMs but decided to just skip the hassle of all the bugs and weird problems by reverting to the stock kernal. It works best for me. However I appreciate being rooted and would like to root on ICS 4.0.3
I am currently on the DCLP5 kernal and I can not seem to find that specific corresponding CF-Root kernal over here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
If I am right and there is no CF-Root DCLP5 kernal which kernal is the closest that I may use?
Sorry if it seems like I am thread hijacking.
I have been searching for awhile and can't find the answer myself. I'd rather not start a new topic as the answer could possibly be there and I overlooked it.
If anyone can inform me of which is the closest kernal i can use to gain root I would greatly appreciate it!
Please and thank you!

I can't find CF-Root for LP5, so you're probably right. You can try SiyahKernel, but I don't have an I9100T so I don't know if that's safe.
Your best bet is to flash an ICS custom ROM from the I9100 section (there's loads) then flash the right modem.
Or better yet - use AOKP (Jelly Bean).

Hmm, I see. Well, nevertheless, I thank you very much for your help.
Are there other methods of achieving root?
For example, In my desperate attempts I came upon this method... ( galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s2-newworks-on-all-galaxy-s2-variants/ ) ... but it only works on early gingerbread versions. (Kind of misleading IMHO)
I just need root, I don't mind which method as long as I get the final result.
Again, thanks for any help and advice.
Try to use method 1 from 1st guide in my signature.

And im still on the same android version as i stated above. Thanks for answering i appreciate it so much!
If you're on AT&T. Go to the third post of this thread for the AT&T modem.
Then there is some research to do on your part to learn how to flash it in cwm recovery.
Or in this thread is an odin flashable version as an alternative flash method.
Again some research on your part is needed to learn how to use Odin.

i have a little bit of experience on odin but he says you have to copy and paste that stuff into it? im seriously the biggest noob at this and i have no idea how to do any of it. i used odin to install a stock operating system but im still getting edge data? if you could help me step by step i could maybe pay you.
No. The link up top is the Odin.tar to flash with Odin.
Open Odin
Click on the pda slot
Choose modem.tar
Place phone in download mode
Connect to pc
When you see a com port hit start
Profit.
Those instructions in the thread are how to yank the modem off the phone itself in the first place.
And below that, how to push one in with adb. without using Odin.

Hi,
Last year I rooted my SGS II, unlocked it from Orange and installed Villian ROM (which I have bee perfectly happy with). I've just ordered my new upgrade SGS III (on T-Mobile), which will be here in a few days
As a result i want to sell my SGS II, but hink it would be more attractive if it were a stock samsung ROM.
I'm a bit rusty on flashing etc as it was quite some time ago that I rooted/flashed the phone, so I just wanted to ask if I can simply download the stock ROM from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487)? and flash using Odin to replace the custom Villian ROM?
Don't really want to brick the phone!
My SGS II is as follows:
Originally Orange I9100P
PDA: I9100XXK13
Phone: I9100XXLPB
Model: GT-I9100
Kernel: 2.6.35.11-ninphetamine-2.0.5+
VillianROM 3.0

yes u can do that , but as u stated its 'Original Orange I9100P', flashing the rom from that will wrk for u san u may not use the 'NFC' function though properly

Yes it is a I9100P
I would just like to get a fairly standard Samsung ROM working on there so it has stuff like allshare and swype etc. But obviously still want it to be unlocked.
It is branded I9100P on the back cover next to the Orange logo, so I guess that is what it is. Although the phone reports it is an I9100, but I guess this could be down to what I done to unlock it (though for the life of me I can't remember how I did it).

u can check this one which is unbranded 'I9100XWLPG'
Is the unbranded uk one not XWLP7.
I dont know about nfc,but both my phones are unbranded and thats what they were on.
And youd probably get more dosh for unbranded.
And where are the orange logos on the phone..

Is it black.Ive got a spare back housing and cover that Im not going to need/use.

Many thanks for the offer. Yeah, as you say, probably not worth the grief.
As long as I can get a standard type ROM running and unlocked I'll be happy.
My new S3 arrives Tuesday, so I'll wait unitl then before doing anything with the S2, just in case of any issues as I don't want to be left without a phone.
Just out of interest, what is a mint S2 worth roughly?
Could be around £230-260.I only keep my eye open for cracked screen/dont switch on ones.
They can go for up to £160.
Just put it on eBay for a starting price of £200 or a buy it now for what you want.....or let it roll from 99p and get your mates to bump up the price...

off the phone
- press volume up + home + power button, release your hands as soon as the phone lights up
It's like the opposite of download mode

Thanks, disaster averted , has now rebooted with ICS 4.03, which is what I was after. No yellow warning triangle, which is fine.
Just need to make sure it is still network unlocked, but initially looks like it is.
Can't thank you enough for your prompt and awesome advice.
Cheers,
We5ty.

Swyped from my Galaxy SII
So I bought this Galaxy S2 from a newspape article.
The device works but it won`t allow me to use my network. The phone had vodafone apps after I did a factory reset so I thought it was on vodafone. I tried all sorts os uk sims but all did the same.
When I try to call or text it says "not registered to network" and at the notification bar it says emergency calls only. The phone gets signal as it has full bars.
I kept changing to different roms with odin but nothing worked (even rooted it)
So please tell me step by step what to do to get it working, I love android and samsung now opposed to my iphone.
iMPORTANT STUFF ABOUT THE PHONE
Model number: GT-I9100
Android version: 4.1.2
Baseband version: I9100BULS1
Kernel version: 3.0.31-889555 [email protected] #3 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 31 14:48:54 KST 2013
Build number: JZO54K.I9100XWLSD
I live in the uk, phone is gsm and is NOT rooted now
Please help me out. Massive thank you in advance!
I can't go to an official store; don't have any documents btw
Try different modem or kernel if it didn't works probably is sim locked
Send from my SGS2 I9100 with HassanROM and latest DorimanX 8.xx kernel
And if it's sim locked, Galaxsim is the app for you.
Yes but I really need a guide. I would like to use it on the 3 UK network. So please link me to the rom/modem/kernel to make my S2 work in 3 UK

If only you had the intelligence to read what I wrote and realise that the phone is not locked to a network, I just need a new modem etc.
If you can't say something nice then don't say nothing. Very welcoming atmosphere on this forum though. You must have loads of friends.

It does have an IMEI number, but I'll try the link you posted. Thank you!
Lsw is uk firmware and nels1 is three network modem found on apriliam3 thread. There are both modem/ril and just modem. As your stock flash the modem/ril. :thumbup: also check imei ent blocked on web site for free. Google it. Dose it have data access? If it dose prob blocked as will do this. Just blocks calls and texs. try it
Whenever you get a second-hand ROM you need to factory reset and wipe dalvik.
After that, flash whatever you want.
All these are a must.

Please post your baseband version. You most likely don't have the correct modem. They specifically recommended to use or be on the XXBMD6 base before installing the rom in the Developer thread.
No Network. SHUCKS!

Hello! I have Samsung Galaxy Trend S-7562, which was probably made in Malaysia. I got it as a gift. I wanted to install KyleOpen Rom and did install but I missed to be on XXBMD6. There is no network since. Later I again downloaded and went on XXBMD6 and again installed KyleOpen Rom. But the network didn't appear. I am so frustrated. My parents are not going to buy me a new phone which is very sad.
I went to costumer care of samsung and they said they are not able to fix the problem. I think the network problem is because of the wrong Kernel and Modem I am having currently. So are there any expertise who can help me. That will be much appreciated. Thanks!

You can't just flash a rom based off of that. You need to either flash the entire firmware or you should just be able to grab the modem from the firmware, but probably best just to do the whole thing to make sure everything is set up as it is supposed to between the modem, bootloader, etc.
What should I do now?

Thank You! Vaibhav. Are you sure that it supports S7562XXBMD6 baseband? If so, the only thing I have to do is download this baseband and flash it through Odin, right (ticking the PDA) ?
Plus, In the board after removing the battery there is "S7562_C" printed. I think this my phone and there is NOT "Duos" printed on the top on right hand side on the front of my phone. I can't post the url due to some restrictions so here's the link: www (dot) techinsights(dot)com/DeviceProfileSF_AustinParts.aspx?TeardownId=1438
So can you guys assist me from the basic what should I do to get my network signal back on?
I appreciate your reply guys. Thank you very much.

So that means I can NEVER have network back again in my phone? As a "Senior Member" and all your experience what do you suggest me to do? I am so fu**ed up, mann! I just need to figure out what stock rom does it accepts with correct baseband right? Oh god!
http://nasirtech.blogspot.com/2014/01/s7562cznuana1-412-jelly-bean-firmware.html
A sign of relief.
Okay! A little sign of relief. Thank you es0tericcha0s and I will hit that "Thanks" button :laugh: Okay! So even though someone send my phone from Malaysia and I'm using it on Nepal. I should install the Chinese firmware because my phone is S-7562C, right? If Yes! I will instantly begin the download and do as instructed.
Thanks!
According to the baseband version you posted and this page here:
http://sampro.pl/firmware/android/samsung-gt-s7562/
the original firmware you had on it would have been the one from China on 4.0.4 unless you had changed that, which I am sure you would have known, but if it was working before, then it should be good to go.
Messed up.

Okay! All I did was downloaded KyleOpen ROM, flashed it and the Kernel. I lost the network here because I was NOT on XXBMD6 or whatever they wanted to be in. So i downloaded the XXBMD6 and again flashed it and installed KyleROM. Still No Network and I took it to Samsung costumer care here and i don't know what they did. I think they flashed some other firmware because, I think the baseband was not "S7562ZCMB2" before flashing KyleOpen ROM. So, do you think I/they changed my firmware? I forgot which baseband I was in. I sound like I know nothing.
