guys..
just wanna ask something..
what kind of s2 was this..
model gt-i9100
android version 2.3.3
baseband i9100xxkce
kernel 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #2
buildnumber: gt-i9100-eng 2.3.3 gingerbread xxkce test keys..
is this an ok or good type of SGS2?
can i flash this with the roms in dev section?or you can give me link on dev of this type of sgs2?
btw..in this phone to go to recovery mode is via vol up + vol down then power..
pls someone help me..thanks in advance..
jusst want to clarify something about this..
Just to confirm, are you sure about the kernel? Usually kernel ends with 2 letters and then a number. (Im talking about i9100xxkce, the kce part)
You enter recovery mode exactly as you wrote.
yeah..im sure..my sgs2 was on my hand while we are on conversation
stock recovery was volup + voldown then power..
Search button says
CE---> Belgium, Luxembourg, Netherlands
btw..in this phone to go to recovery mode is via vol up + vol down then power..
Thats wrong for i9100 .
Check codes under the battery SSN = i9100GSMH.
jje
so is this also an original s2 with same specs as the other i9100?
cant find the link..
can u post the direct link here? thanks

yeah it is..
so what was this?
is it not the sgs2 in the forum?
OK thats the standard International i9100 the main phone in Devs and custom roms .
All custom roms are flash able unless they state they are for another model like the G .
jje
ahh so ihave the i9100G type of samsung g2?
so u are saying i can flash any i9100G roms here?
how about mu baseband and kernels?
hmm..
btw..on my phone about..
model: i9100 not i9100G
btw..
under my battery..
heres the info..
model i9100G
ssn-i9100GGSMH
sory..my bad when i say yes on ur question.
so now u can acess it again?
btw on my about phone..it indicates model: i9100
kinda confusing and contrary with infos under the.battery..
You can only flash G firmware on G phones you cannot flash i9100 firmware on G phones .
Your codes read as a G not the i9100 international version .
There are some G threads around and G CUSTOM ROMS .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1108787
jje
but as u can see..
i got about fone all in i9100..not i9100G..
only in under infos battery got i9100G..
kinda weird and contrary..
is it final.that i got G model fone?
up..
can some one identify and acess this sgs2?
confusing..thanks..

This is the entire post thread chronologically. JJEgan told you that you have the standard international i9100. NOT the G. You somehow came to the conclusion that you DO have the i9100G. (How, I'm not sure...)
Final say is what is printed on the label under your battery. What does that say, EXACTLY?
Does it say:
Model: GT-I9100
Or does it say:
Model: GT-I9100G
If there is a "G" at the end, then you have a G model.
This shouldn't be this hard.
Nope otherwise there would be a G behind the 9100 ;P If your device is rooted just make a nandroid (backup in recovery).

He's clearly confused... Let's see what he finds on the label behind his battery first before confusing him more, eh?

Well i was trying to update the kernel of the device to XWKE7 with ODIN. ODIN said the kernel was updated succesfully, but when i tried to turn on the phone after that, it gives me the logo with a yellow exclamation point. Also when the battery ran out i plugged it in and the counter was greyed out with a frozen circle in the center and now i cant even charge the phone. Is there any type of fix for this at all? Thanks in advance.
_Binary Flood_
well 1stly you need a charged battery.. maybe get one from your friend!
then put the phone in download mode..
connect the usb and flash a stock firmware through odin (and dont interrupt the process)
let the phone reboot..
pop your old battery in and charge it.. voila you are good to go!
got more ques?! PM me!

Dont know which firmware to choose though.
Its a G model as far as i am aware you require different firmware from the 9100 model .
Though i am not 100% sure as all i have seen is noobs telling posters to flash stock rom who then report a bricked phone . Check it out G is not i9100 .

use stockfirm ware that from your country is safer...
for my country need dzkj2 to able flash/root
latest firmware for my country is dzkl3
yellow triangle means custom rom...
try different firmware just check that works for your country-carrier and it's for 9100.
ok buddy got your puzzle solved out..
1. download the firmware from the link below.. xtract the files..
2. from the extracted files open odin
3. click on 'pda' button and select the file 'I9100GXWKJ2_I9100GODDKJ2_I9100GDDKI1' from the extracted files.
4. Make sure the battery is atleast 50% charged.
5. Put the phone in download mode.
6. Connect the device to the pc via usb. Wait for the drivers to get installed. Oncd the drivers are installed the ID:COM will turn yellow in the odin.
7. once the ID:COM turns yellow click on start.
8. dont disturb the phone or the pc when the process is going on.
9. Once it is done, the phone will reboot.
10. Your phone will be successfully unbricked then.

No offense to kjshah, but he's giving you un-informed advice.
1st - make ABSOLUTELY SURE what model phone you have. You've referenced T-Mobile USA for your carrier, a non-existent model number (SGH-I9100G), and a completely different model number above (GT-I9100).
Well, are you POSITIVE your model is GT-I9100? If you actually got your Galaxy SII from T-Mobile, then you DO NOT have a GT-I9100. You have an SGH-T989. If that's the case, you're in the wrong place. There's a separate forum for the SGH-T989.
If you actually DO have a GT-I9100, then you should probably be made aware; you will NEVER get 3g/4g on T-Mobile's network in the USA, regardless of what you do. Flashing a different modem will NOT help. The phone simply doesn't have the radio antenna hardware to pick up the necessary frequencies to operate on 3g/4g, and you will only ever get Edge speeds.
Check under your battery. That will have a label that has what your model number is. I believe the model number in your "about phone" screen is subject to change depending on what you may have flashed.
Model : GT-I9100
SSN : I9100GSMH
these 2 i found on the label on the battery and its from T-Mobile.
Dunno what to do now _Binary_Food_

Since the model no. is GT-I9100 the carrier shouldn't matter since i9100 are factory unlocked!

Many confused with the Models.. G model cant use the same firmware nor kernel as the I9100 use.. there's a new custom kernel & firmware made for G model in the forum.. hope this will help...

Hi guys, I have a Galaxy s2 which was purchased from ebay(never again)... Anyways, the phone appears to be working fine that is until I needed to charge the phone. After charging the phone and disconnecting the wall charger I get a message prompt onscreen that appears every 10 seconds or so saying 'over voltage please disconnect charger' or wording to that effect. If I reconnect and then straight away disconnect the prompt goes away. Also I installed kies, just because the ics official update was not showing on my device so wanted to install the update via kies hoping that upgrading may fix it. Whilst installing I get an error that 'samsung mobile MTP device' failed to install. Long story short is that I installed ics over my wifi but the same faults persist. I need to flash the rom that came with the device just so it doesnt cause any sillyness when disputing the auction.
Just another question, when I press and hold power, volume down and home the phone boots into odin, is that something that comes pre-loaded on the phone?
So, this is the info from my phone, could somebody point me in the right direction of the stock 2.3.5 rom for vodafone uk-
KERNAL VERSION-
3.0.15-I9100BULPC-CL332484

Thanks guys.
If anybody knows how to fix the faults I have i'd be grateful, I really like the phone.

So do you think odin was put on the device?
Ok, I checked the link and I have already used the link before. I used the carrier stock rom link and flashed the last rom for vodafone uk. So as im on vodafone uk, does that mean that I can download any rom for vodafone uk or only the roms with matching device ID... basically the details from my first post?

ur phone will only brick if u use any rom/kernel meant for I9100G since it has a diff hardware altogether
u have to look for ROM/KERNELS meant for I9100(international version or its variants like M/P/T etc)
never try anything meant for I9100G on ur phone
Yep ofc it will break it
