Update after stock flash - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so i've returned my phone to stock firmware, which is 02 branded KF3. Kies reads my phone as PDA:KF3 / PHONE:KE7 / CSC:KJ1 (FOP). It initially said KG2 for CSC but i've changed it thinking this was my problem.
Anyway enough blabbering. My problem is kies wont update, it says this version of the device cannot be updated. Any ideas what i need to do next?
Cheers

I would forget about Kies. They are extremely slow in releasing updates. I recommend updating via Odin to XWKL1 (Open Europe) 2.3.6
Or alternatively update to UK vodafone branded BUKJ3 2.3.5

It was my concern as well. But if you follow flashing steps then nothing could go wrong. But if... then just flash stock rom version you had at the beginning, if needed use jig to reset the counter and you can easily take your phone back to the shop

this may be the case of CSC as you mentioned. If you want stock O2 then try one more time KF3 but it's old 2.3.3, if CSC won't update then use O2 KJ1 2.3.5

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S2 root question - Need advice

Hello,
I am brand new here and just got my S2, which I would like to root. I have read the post from Chainfire. My question now is:
My base version is I9100BOKD1
Buidl. GINGERBREAD.BOKE4
Kernel 2.6.35.7-9100BOKE4-CL-188639root DELL102#2
Can I use the XWKDD_insecure.tar for rooting or do I need another version. Would an upgrade by Samsung to a newer version still be possible?
Hope some can help me on this, not willing to brick it!
Thanks in advance
you definitely can use this kernel for rooting, just flash back your stock kernel afterwards!

That's an interesting question for me, as well. Should an update come out, how can I apply it, since my phone is rooted?
you can always flash new fw versions with ODIN

Update depends upon the product code on the phone .
for updates via Kies or flash generic via Odin .

Thanks for the answer. Where do I get the stock kernel from? Is it possible to backup it from the device.
I read that I would need the adb driver for my phone. I have KIES installed and I am able to get on the phone via MyPhoneExplorer. However, KIES does not work. Where do I get the adb driver from? Uninstall and reinstall KIES? Thanks anyway for the quick response!

So essentially for my version I would need the KE4? right?
I already rooted SonyEricsson Xperia X10 and X10mini, so this should not be a problem. I just want to make sure to have the right stuff in place and not to brick it. Thanks again!
No KE7 should work it has KE4 modem baseband .

So you are saying I already have KE7 although it says KE4 in the build? Why should I use the KE7 then?
I tried to use KIES to look for updates, however S2 is not recognized by KIES.
In terms of the adb driver ( I use WIN XP SP3), do I need to see it. I am able to connect to the internal SD Card. So does it work then?
Teddybear2 said:

No i saide KE7 should work
KE4 is not firmware its the modem if you are reading . = Baseband
KE7 Build KE4 Baseband is what about phone reads .
I tried to use KIES to look for updates, however S2 is not recognized by KIES.
No you have no longer got the firmware that goes with the phone so it cannot find correct codes .

Thanks. As I am a Newbie I jsut need little advice.
I finally managed to connect with KIES by simply disabling UBS debugging. Now I have what is rquired to know:
PDA: KE4
Phone KD1
CSC KE4 (DTM).
So I suspect I could take the KE4 from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671
As far as I understood from our conversation is that KE7 is the newest kernel and KE4 is included. Would an upgrade to KE7 still allow me to officially upgrade to a possible newer version?
You would advice to take KE7?

Ke7 is now superseded for some by KE8
Modem in KE7 is KE4 .
Once you move to stock rom you may lose your update path through Kies .
You have posted
PDA: KE4 older firmware than KE7
Phone KD1 Older Modem than KE4
CSC KE4 (DTM).
But the Kies update path will always be open if you update via Kies from original firmware even if its much later for updates than flashing stock rom via Odin .
Path for firmware is Samsung build stock rom its then passed to the network /providers for testing and customisation they then send to Kies . Kies matches original firmware product codes etc finds a matching update and downloads .

[Q] Galaxy S II Firmware Upgrade 2.3.4 Help!

I have been researching the net on this and the posts in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278.
I haven't been able to post in there as I am a new user, but if someone can help me with this, it would be great.
I'm trying to upgrade my firmware to XXKH3 - Android 2.3.4.
My current version is:
PDA: I91000XWKE7
PHONE: I9100XXKE4
CSC: I9100OPSKE4
My Galaxy S II is rooted and it's on the OPTUS network in Australia.
My question is, how should I go about it?
Do I download the XXKH3 Stock Kernel: http://www.multiupload.com/C4DRUIJTLL and place that in PDA and PHONE in Odin?
And for CSC do I get this: Optus OPSKG1 CSC: http://www.multiupload.com/EPWZTIMS1F and place it in CSC?
I want to be able to use the OPTUS network on XXKH3, but without OPTUS bloatware. I'm just not sure which files to get so I can be with OPTUS on an Australian firmware if that makes any sense.
My last question is, would this then wipe my data? Or not?
I appreciate any help on this.

you are referring to the right thread. clear instructions are given on that thread.
choose the PDA option.
CSC has nothing to do with what languages the firmware supports and it will not add keyboard language support either.
You don't have to change the kernel or root or unroot to flash a new stock firmware.
You can then flash the kernel of your choice.
If you want the CF-root KH3 kernel. refer this thread
If you want to flash stock KH3 kernel you can also do that.
as far as operator bloatware is concerned search for operator specific bloatware removal scripts which can be executed using Gscript app . or a simpler option would be to freeze or uninstall the bloatware apps using Titanium back up Pro.
Thank you for the fast reply.
So pretty much all I need to do is put the XXKH3 Stock Kernel in the PDA option and that's it. So the OPTUS network will not be affected correct?
Then root it and I'm done?
Thanks again!

Hm. I just put XXKH3 Stock Kernel in PDA and flashed it but my phone still says Android 2.3.3. I used the CF-root KH3 kernel as well to root it again.
What do I need to do to get it to Android 2.3.4? Do I have to place it in PHONE as well?
The ROM is 2.3.4, just about any ROM in original development is. What you are trying to flash is kernel. Best of luck.

Er, Kernel is kernel and firmware is firmware. Flashing the kernel won't update the firmware, just the kernel.
Alright I think I understand now.
Downloading the package, which should do it and I guess the stock kernel is used to root/rid yourself of the yellow triangle.

It went well, the phone is working great.
My data didn't get wiped.
Follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278.
Download the XXKH3 package.
I also used Titanium to backup my apps just in case and MyBackup Pro for contacts etc. but haven't needed to use it.
After you flash that (if you want to root the phone) go to this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399 and get CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KH3-v4.1-CWM4.zip. Put that in PDA and flash it.
To get rid of the yellow triangle, follow this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14283369&postcount=2.
That's it. Thanks for all your help guys!
ok so lets say I chose new stock firmware to avoid the triangle,then later wanted to be official,could i plug my phone into kies and updatd to official 2.3.4 without problems?
i would like to try oranges firmware without rooting the device and voiding my warranty!

Umm , judging by what I'm seeing , I suppose you only ran the "Check for updates" thingy in the Settings ? It only checks if there are any updates available, you have to do the actual updating via PC with an application called Kies. Get it from Samsung official website and follow instructions to get the updates, if any.
Edit : ... or by using Kies Air, but that's something else.

[Q] Need the XWKI8 firmware and Stock Kernel for Telia Denmark

Hello all, and sorry for my newb-ness!
I was looking around for making my SGS2 "legal" again, flashing it with entirely "old" firmware, but the firmwares i found here, are not fitting the original description i have.

or any firmware for Telia
or can anyone link to me to any firmware hardcoded with telia's info?

You'd need the stock kernel relating to the rom, I've had no need to service so not sure, if anyone else who has had previous experience on this could help.
thought as much... and all the download links relating to the XWKK5 are busted
think im am going to try this one, until i find a legal one

Try Checkfus. There's a thread on here, search for it.
what should i do with that?
i dont need to check if there is an update, i just want either an older version kernel/firmware from Telia Denmark
which is working, so that i can update the old fashioned way!
or what was you intention with checkfus?
You can download the KI8 firmware with Checkfus. Try it & see

In my case, in the standard tab I chose Android/GT-I9100T/Australia (Vodafone), then I clicked on check firmware. Checkfus told me KJ1 was the latest available, I clicked download, waited for it to download the firmware and at the end of the process it automatically decrypted it.
Which gave me a zip containing a tarball (just like the firmware in Intratech's thread) I can flash in Odin if I ever need to go back to stock.
See... I didnt notice if my phone is a regular GTi9100 or a -T, -N or whatever the options are, how do i find such info, because i was so smart not to make a backup of my current settings :-(

[Q]Update to ICS

Good Morning Everybody, i just yesterday buy one Samsung GS2 and it have I9100XXKI4 Base version i saw many manuals to update it to ICS but my question is what version i need to chose is mater if i chose etc this "I9100XXLPH" and is different than my?
hi mate, ill be brief because its just about my bed time
I9100XXKI4 is gingerbread, I9100XXLPH is ics. So they wont be the same if your upgrading from gb to ics.

and what CF-Root i need to use? i mean version!
you do know when you flash cf-root via odin your going to increase your custom counter and in effect void your warranty, so youll need to either use a usb jig or use chainfires triangle away app?

yes, everytime you use odin to flash a rom on your phone you increase the custom counter by one, if this is not set to 0 ( zero ) your would lose your warranty if you took it to a samsung store for repair. So when you flash ice cream sandwich on your phone, theres an app called triangle away by chainfire ( play store ) which will reset it back to zero and your warranty will be ok! but only use it on ics not gb.
when you tell me your location ill post you a link to ics for you ( stock ) and the cf-root file and the instructions to use it. You have flashed a phone with odin before?

Firstly, try not to hijack threads like this.
Back to your problem, have you tried adding APNs in whatever ROM you are trying?

Right. Can you confirm that you used menu (left touchkey) > save to save your APN?
If that fails, please tell me your carrier and country.

anything solve with this problem;
My guess is you have an firmware for a different country and need to install the CSC for your country.
Either that or flash stock GB rom as you claim all ICS has the problem .
