Hello,
I just purchased an GT-i1900P orange, UK
Can i flash it with for example "I9100XXLPB" 4.0.3 ??
I know that I will lose NFC and I do not care.
But is it possible? or I will brick my phone?
Any help is appreciated.
Many thanks

Yes, it is possible. I9100 ROMs will indeed work on I9100P phones, but NFC won't work anymore... and it sounds like you already know this.
It's ALSO possible you can also brick your phone if you don't follow instructions.
ALL THAT SAID... If you are concerned about stability and NOT bricking your phone, then I suggest you do NOT flash ANY ICS based ROM, as it's not yet been officially released. That means any ICS based ROM is built off a leak, so stability is NOT guaranteed.
thank you for the explanation. I appreciate it.
by the way, even the radios(modems) are compatible/flashable?
god of war here I come..

Hi,
I also have the GT-i1900P Orange UK version.
Can you tell me which ROM did you flash? I need to debrand that Orange stuff since I'm on giffgaff. Would love to have some latest generic Samsung firmware but I'm a bit lost when it comes to ROMs. So far I've managed to remove simlock using Samsung Galaxy S unlocker and flash "CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KI3-42-v4.2-CWM4.zip".
Thanks

You can flash any I9100 (NOTE: NOT an I9100G) firmware. Just know that you'll lose NFC if you do. But it looks like you already got this information in a different thread.

The first thing anybody should be doing after rooting and before flashing an ICS BETA ROM is making an EFS backup(download release.zip)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308546
and then making a Nandroid backup just incase you need to get back to your previous Firmware.Without these 2 things you could loose your phone cos your flashing a BETA ROM.
EDIT:A good kernel for ICS is LP6 as LPB seems to have more bugs in some ROMs.

Hello,
I have done exactly as you did. Just that I also backed up my EFS!! If you screw your EFS that you screw the phone so better safe than sorry.
Then I went on flashing I9100XXLPB with ODIN (there were three files).., the same way you flashed CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KI3-42-v4.2-CWM4.zip
So far so good! on 4.0.3 , performance is great
got 4027 on quadrant benchmark
absolutely no crashes yet..
thanks everyone for the help...
it seems easy now once you do it yourself..

Hi all i have returned to the android scene from IOS trying to work out a means of downloadong the factory/carrier Firmwares i remember from when i had a i9000
It was possible to force kies to download the releasle from Samsung with the spoofer tool despite googling for two days straight and trwaling thru the forums i have not been.able to find a means or even of a download of the. firmware im wondering about
Galaxy S 2 running 2.3.3 gingerbread
PDA: I9100TDOKH1
PHONE: I9100TDOKG2
CSC: I9100TTNZKH1
Im presently dubious about attempting to attain root on this device if i cannot get kies to flash it back to stock rom or even.maintain a copy of this rom
any heads up or advice where to move forwards.
Im hoping the carrier soon releases the 2.3.4 update shortly... failing that i will just debrand with another 9100T rom
cheers any advice for the next move would be great!
I would suggest asking Intratech for it in his carrier-branded firmware thread in the development section. The Voda firmware is listed, so TCNZ's shouldn't be too hard for the man to track down.

Keep trying on fus.nanzen.se. Finally it will hopefully give a response. I have added it to the preset list even though it's not giving a response atm.
I'd be quite interested in a dump of your stock Telecom /system/csc/ folder if that'd be possible?

Is it not possible to spoof Kies for the i9100 to force a Update/Save a Rom
i know it was possible when I had a i9000 i used the spoofer and saved the Factory Firmware down at the time

Wow on further inspection... thats what i call a Awesome/Innovative Tool!
Nice work man!
I think it may come available soon
I think Telecom only released their branded handsets in the last 6 days.. so perhaps the Firmware will come available soon..
Failing that maybe the 2.3.4 update will be what comes available (if ever)
Perhaps a debrand is inorder...
It sounds like Telecom have fairly heavily modified the firmware which is going to make future updates very slow. By comparison Vodafone left it almost completely stock-standard.

Yes you should flash a stock ROM or AOSP ROM. Flashing doesn't void warranties these days. You can reset your download count using what's called a USB jig aka resistor, So when you break it you can just reflash a stock rom reset the download count an Samsung will never know any better.

Any 2.3.4 Stock/AOSP Roms you reccomend for the I9100T
I was going to root first so I could suck all the CSC , efs etc etc out of the phone
and then go for DarkyRom2 but not sure
With regards to wiping the counter i thought there was a second counter that cant be wiped yet!

Yup, thanks very much. I'll trawl through that and see if anything is worth shoe-horning into my Vodafone-derived SGS2.
Was there a TNZ sub-folder inside the CSC folder?
Edit: This section suggests fairly conclusively that XT does NOT support Fast Dormancy (figured as much so no surprise).

If you do flash a firmware and you want a JIG to reset it then I've got one you can borrow if you're around Wellington. Otherwise I think mine was about $12 including postage off eBay.

Here's an email I received after asking Telecom if they supported it in July (originally posted on Geekzone):
Thank you for your email query and we apologise for the late response, as this needed to come from our network team. Please find their response below:
"No we currently do not have NCFD feature enabled. Because only the handset benefits from Fast Dormancy for battery life purposes. In fast dormancy the handset notifies the network to release the air interface so it’s put into IDLE state much quicker than going through to Cell-FACH and finally to Idle. This can cause much more signaling on the network between the RNC, NodeB and mobile device which (increase in signaling load) can lead to congestion.
We have a number of features on the network that can work with Fast Dormancy and not cause a large increase in signaling load, however there is no current ETA for deployment."
Should you require any further assistance please email or call 0800550120 or *120, we would be happy to assist.

I've been running darkyrom2 with no issues at all, and I'm undervolted. Have you tried that yet? I've never lost data on any non-wipe flash, but also use titanium back up, so am safe if I do.
Is there a link for the stock firmware now? Which modem does it use?

I've used many different modems (probably all of them to be honest), but am quite happy with the KI3 one at the moment. It's giving me no issues as far as XT's network goes, but I don't travel a lot so am not really a good judge. It does give me more range with Wifi though, something I have had issues with on other modems.
No idea on stock firmware. Has Intratech posted a link? He finds most of them.
Hi Guys, my phone has: PDA: KG1 / PHONE: KG1 / CSC: KG2 (XEF)
ANDROID VERSION: 2.3.3
KERNEL VERSION: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKG1-CLlabeltest_I9100XWKG1
my problem is when i run the software update of the phone it say that "NO UPDATE AVAILABLE" I try and with the kies software but tha same.
And know tha 2.3.4 came before a long time ago, and mine is at 2.3.3!!!
What do you suggest me to do?!?!?! to wait if my phone sometime will update?! or to do something else to get the official updates!!!
Thanks.
Well... if what you are talking about are the OTA updates on the phone... then its possible that it wont work because of your carrier, have you tried Kies?... and of course you could always use Odin

Well I don't know about what carrier or what country we are talking about. But here in Denmark we had 2.3.4 from KI4 undtil recently where they updated us to 2.3.5 KI8... But it sounds a little extreme for you to be stuck on 2.3.3

What if you don't get an update? I was a stubborn man with the same issue, but I broke when there was no update for my country officially, now if I could do that you also could, rather should update to 2.3.5. I hope you know the Odin method. And of course it's a worth upgrade.
Then install CM7. It's 2.3.7. I think you're big enough to take this decision yourself. If you're not, do a NAND backup, try a ROM and if you don't like it, you revert to your original one.
P.S.: those numbers don't worth much... you won't see a difference.

While this is true, your typical I9100 ROM will probably NOT have NFC support built in. So if you flash it to your I9100P, chances are good you will not have NFC anymore. May or may not make a difference to you.

.... Probably? Only Samsung can officially answer that question.
EDIT: So if Samsung DOES officially release ICS through Kies (which by all indications, chances are quite good), you're still probably going to have to wait until they decide that your region is going to get it. This is one of the many reasons I've spurned using Kies. Kies is also somewhat unreliable for me. It only decided that my phone was connected to the computer about 1 out of 4 times. I much prefer using Odin and flashing the firmware myself.
Flashing an ICS Rom is the best thing that you can do to your phone. I know NFC probably is not going to work at first, but do you realy use it?

Wireless payments, sharing etc etc will be big soon.
Rolling out in the UK this year so for example you can pay for small money purchases in shops by flashing your phone to a receiver. Bit like the oyster card on the London underground.

Im currently running Jusada's ICS Final. Best rom I have tried. I have tried loads and loads of roms recently but always come back to this. I made a CWM backup of the 3 uk 2.3.3 rom but cant get the H3G baseband! looked everwhere for it. (even asked 3 for it).
To be honest I wouldn't expect 3 to update past this at all. Just flash any Euro 2.3.6 if you want pure stock. The only difference really (apart from a few tweaks) is the bloatware (Rubbish games/win cash etc).
Im going to stay on this ROM until official CM 7.2 (just to see what it like) and the unnoficial CM9 comes a bit more stable.
Got to ask, why do you want the official 3 rom back?

Hi folks thank you for the replays i am after the stock rom because i have to send phone back to 3 as the camera is broke i need 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 not sure if i can update with 2.3.4 using kies i am using Cw 7.2
I've got the stock H3G 2.3.6 rom (GT-S5830_H3G_1_20111223114803.zip).
not sure how i can share it with anyone.
I'd be grateful for the 2.3.3, though as gps was far faster in the older version.
Hi you could put it on a torrent site p bay or demon thanks for any help
sorry, i'm not familiar with this.
i'll tell you how i got it though.
get this software : CheckFusDownloader_v2.1.exe
and use the following :
product code: GT-S5830OKAH3G
PDA: S5830XWKPY/
CSC: S5830H3GKP3/
Phone: S5830NEKP7
this will allow you to get the rom directly from the server that kies uses.
i've once spent almost one day to get this

Hi all i get is no firmware found
So...I returned my phone to stock, which was a nightmare because I already had a devs ICS and the instructions (for returning to stock) are for UCKH7...got endless errors and whatnot...
Finally figure it out. So now I'm back to 2.3.6 and I figured I connect to Kies and get the At&t ICS version. No problem...got it!
Now...if I want to root it and instal cwm, how would I do it? I mean the methods at the dev section are for the gingerbread os, right?
Any help will be appreciated. :good:
just flash a kernel with Odin. Far as I know it should work fine. Then again I haven't had to do it for a long while.

Maybe Entropy512 can help with the best way to flash a new package!! GL if anything ever did happen I sure hope Samsung would give you a replacement.....
Another question (might be related)
Hey all,
I have just got a brand new i777, I just wanted to upgrade it to ICS and sim-unlock it.
The upgrade is to be done through kies, no problem in that.
The sim-unlocking is the issue .. i know it was easy in gingerbread to root and use herlroz app .. but now is there an easy way without using ODIN or flashing a kernel to sim-unlock this phone on the official ICS ?

I have just got a brand new i777, I just wanted to upgrade it to ICS and sim-unlock it.
The upgrade is to be done through kies, no problem in that.
The sim-unlocking is the issue .. i know it was easy in gingerbread to root and use herlroz app .. but now is there an easy way without using ODIN or flashing a kernel to sim-unlock this phone on the official ICS ?
