Hey guys, I'm from the HTC desire forum side, but im going to be rooting my friend's device. He's got the device from bell, but im wondering if i can flash the at&t stock rooted kernel, as i can't seem to find a bell specific one. Thanks.
No you can't use AT&T, for the Bell phone just use any international version kernel.
can you link me to a stock rooted international kernel???? thanks so much.

Hi guys, I've been browsing through this forum for awhile now, very helpful threads, you guys do an amazing job!
This is my first post and I would like some help.
I'm from Canada and I ordered my S2 from Newegg.ca, so my phone came factory unlocked and right now I'm running it on the Telus Network.
Samsung started releasing their firmware updates for the different regions, but I'm really confused on witch firmware to get.
I believe my phone is running on the UK firmware but I would like to use a North American firmware, here's the detail:
PDA: I9100XWKF3
Phone: I9100XXKE7
CSC: I9100XEUKD1
Would I be able to run any firmware from any region I want without damaging my phone?
And witch firmware is for the Canadian region?
Thanks in advance.
Anybody?
I'm a noob at this, never owned an android phone before.
So please guys, you'll make me really really happy
Any rom from Dev section 1 and section 2 will work , you got standard global unlocked SGS2.

Hi Ghost, thx for your reply.
I want to to know about actual firmware and not roms.
Can you please direct me to an actual firmware I can use for my SGS2?
and will I be able to use any firmware that's not the generic Europe+UK?
Hi guys, I'm looking for the stock ICS firmware for my Virgin Galaxy S2 (i9100/m).
Went into the thread with the collaboration of stock firmware but the downloads have been removed for both bell and virgin. Can someone point me to the right direction for the stock rom? Or any rom that's close to stock?
According to my copy of Checkfus, there is no official/stock ICS for I9100M/Bell Canada. If you're after a copy of Gingerbread firmware for this carrier/country, search Samfirmware.com
The last and likely only firmware for Bell/Virgin/Sasktel GT I9100Ms was UGKG2 (2.3.3), if you want ICS you'd be better served by downloading a european stock or custom ICS ROM as Bell has never expressed any interest in doing further updates for this phone.

As I said here, The Galaxy SII for Virgin Mobile in the US is NOT the i9100 or i9100M. It is the SPH-D710, otherwise known as the Epic 4G Touch. anyone looking for stuff for a Virgin Mobile US Galaxy SII is in the wrong forum.
Hi,
I know the title sounds like stupid, but someone offered me an S2 a few monthes ago, and he bought it from canada, The problem is its an i9100M, and I want to put some custom roms and kernels on it.
S2 isn't very popular in canada so After hours of searching on the net, I only found out that The canadian I9100M is identical to the international S2, AND by rooting it and installing a custom rom, it will work as an i9100, SO i tried to find the requirements to root it and then I found out that the only one avialable is KG2 while i have LD3 (i9100MUGLD3) for somereason,
So the question is, Is it safe to put the international S2 kernel while rooting since it's the same phone?
and What are the risks if I put the wrong kernel ? will the backup still work ?
Thank you for reading, Thank you more if you're answering :victory:
PS: The phone is unlocked
PS2: I'm not canadian
PS3: I'm a noob at rooting and installing roms&kernels
I9100M can use any I9100 firmware or kernel, no problem. They are functionally the same device. Just stay away from I9100G firmwares or kernels.
I have an S2 which I bought from Vodafone UK. It is running stock Android 4.1.2. I have had the phone unlocked by Vodafone themselves. I'm confused as to which kernel to use for rooting: the Siyah one or the Jeboo one because my phone has Vodafone UK firmware and I have included screenshots with all the details. Do I have to flash firmware that hasn't been modifed by Vodafone, or can I use one of the two kernels on the Vodafone UK firmware? I don't want to risk bricking it...

The firmware is not important. I would recommend Philz kernel by @Phil3759 to root as it still being developed and.....its just the best, you wont hear too many people saying anything negative about it.

In particular read post #3, but have a good read of all the first few posts for more info.
Hi Guys, I have a Samsung Galaxy ( Rooted with Kingo root). I would really Love to flash it with the stock rom ( I did a really long time ago, but i don't for the life of me remember where i got the Stock rom from) I know how to flash it with Odin. I see the stock roms on sam mobile, But none from AT&T, and i assume it makes a difference. All i really wanted to do was try to upgrade it from the now Android 4.4.2 to maybe Android 5.x.x or 6.x.x. Or Flash it with the Stock Rom.
My Model number is Samsung-SGH-I527, Baseband is i527UCUBNJ2. I am on the AT&T Network.
Any Help Would Be Appreciated.
Thanks
