I have installed the CleanROM and rooted using ODIN but now want to return it to how it was when I bought it. It is a UK P7510.
I am currently downloading P7510XXKL2. Do I just flash the PDA via ODIN and then it will be like it was in the first place after doing a factory reset? Do I need to specify a CSC file in ODIN?
Thanks
I flashed it using ODIN and it went well. For some reason though Samsung Apps is now on the homescreen... Does this mean I have a different firmware (i.e older)??
there are guides to unroot your tab if you just search the forum
but you just flash the correct firmware with odin and then the stock recovery files
and to get the newest firmware for uk you can download an older firmware for uk p7510 tabs from samfirmware and then update using kies or OTA

For the UK KL2 is the newest...you're fine.
For US KMP is the newest
Thanks.
Just noticed some minor differences (different default icons/widgets).

Don't use Kies, use Odin, it's far less temperamental. Just download th XWKE2 firmware from samfirmware.com and flash in the PDA section of Odin

Wow, that's a hell of a long time, leave it to download overnight? Mine took a while but only because it's a big file and it certainly didn't take a day! I'm sorry I don't know anywhere else to get stock firmware from apart from Samfirmware.com and the god awful Kies...
Its not posted on here by any chance using a different upload service .

I have installed an unsecure kernel in my galaxy s2 (GT I9100G) but since I cannot find the original stock kernel, I wanted to roll back to the stock android version that came with s2 and thus wanted to know how could I re-install the firmware from KIES.
Thanks

You need to reflash stock using ODIN before you can use kies, as Kies doesn't recognise custom kernels.

Will reflashing bring back the stock kernel and make the phone unrooted in short make it the way Samsung sold it to me?
Also, I am using Galaxy S2 I9100G build number GINGERBREAD.XWKJ2 and for it only 1 unsecured kernel was available at this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1327509
I rooted my phone without any problem but since there's no way to get back the stock kernel, I am afraid that if need be, how am I gonna claim warranty for my device.

Yes aslong as you flash the firmware that came with it t will be like as samsung sold it. Have a look at intratech's thread he may just have the kernel if you still have the original firmware on it already.

Yes, I do have the original firmware on it. Didn't have enough guts to play with custom ROM :/
I did check intratech's thread and found stock kernel for XWKJ2 but the thread titles says "Official i9100 Firmwares" whereas my phone shows i9100G. I guess this won't work.
And, when flashing to original firmware, will the kernel's be replaced to the original one's as well?
Thanks for suck quick replies Am just a n00b diving into Android
You can extract the original kernel yourself if you want it http://www.hotfile.com/dl/136857418/c144909/I9100GXWKJ2_I9100GODDKJ2_INU.zip.html

Downloaded it. Now what do I do? Flash s2 with this, backup using titanium, root device and then use the stock to get rid of yellow triangle? Am I missing anything?
Thanks for your help
BTW, is there a way to get the latest available firmware in my country/region via KIES so that I can be 100% sure of being in right place
i cant post the link right now but you can google
"How to goback/use Kies update after using ODIN,Rooting or Custom Firmware : Video Guide"
and go the the dialandroid website they have a way to make it like original again
Is any problem to update my SGS2 firmware via odin (with latest 2.3.4) if its sim locked? Should I use my old csc (KG2) from my provider or I can use the multi csc from KG5? Thanks
It should not be a problem updating to xxkg5 as all the provider information is on the sim card, only time you would need csc if a different language is used.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XD
Be careful because if you use odin you are flashing your phone and i thought that sim-locked phones couldnt be flashed??!!!
You Can flash it
I just flashed my SGS II yesterday to 2.3.4 and its sim locked to TMobile UK,
Its debanded it however it now reports it cant be updated in kies, see attached image.
that is normal as kies only supports samsung branded firmwares. Odin works better.
you can still use the other features of kies except updating.

I debranded my T-Mobile UK SGSII (KE3) to Stock KE7.
Connect my phone to my PC with the Samsung software. It said that there was a software update and downloaded a stock KF3. I had to reroot the phone afterwards.
Is the reason perhaps that i have installed kg5?,
TBO i am overwhelmed by the amount of diferent firmwares and other info on this site.
I can report that it appears to be working fine though on my phone.
I changed it to kg5 using odin and downloaded it from samfirmware.com

That is exactly the reason. The official stock update is to KF3 and you are way ahead of that.

Hi,
there is probably problem with your CSC. You should have CSC corresponding to your region/country and your operator. I had the same problem and what I had to do was reset my CSC back to original. There are several threads relevant to this topic.
CSC can be reset using *#272*IMEI#, but maybe you will have to find and flash ROM containing your CSC to be able to do this.
you cant use kies when youre on a custom rom as far as i know. Only works with stock samsung firmware
Kies is a Stock Samsung ROM update tool. Therefore using any custom rom besides stock won't work with kies.
I have a Samsung I9300, I'm in the US, and and on T-Mobile, it has the stock ROM, but rooted with Chainfire's CF-Root 6.4. The S3 has downloaded the OTA Jellybean update, and I have postponed it for now. My question is, can I apply the update ? and then just re-root with CF-Root, or will the update fail?
Thanks
I wouldn't apply the ota as it can fail with any root applied incl cf root. You could update through kies and reapply cf root or flash the official firmware for your phone through Odin. If ya need a hand finding out which official firmware ya need do the following:-
Dial *#1234# into your keypad and post results.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
It shows:
AP: I9300UBBLG2
CP: I9300UBLG2
CSC: I9300UUBBLG2
I believe that firmware is Brazilian but using sammobile.com to check for brazilian versions I dont see a JB update for any of the brazilian carriers handsets or the unbranded version :/
If u have kies you could do the update through it, it updates the same as if u flash through odin and wont wipe anything. You could also use "checkfus" from playstore it should identify your phone and firmware version and allow u too download.
I had a similar problem, and I thought I could try to get Jelly Bean by flashing a custom Jelly Bean ROM. Now I want to go back to stock ROM (flashed custom ROM's performance is awful), so I downloaded the corresponding stock ROM from sammobile, but what I found was a very large (1,2Gb) tar.md5 file and a SS_Dl.dll file.
So the question; is it normal for it to be that big? and, how do I flash it with odin... which thing goes where? which pit should I use? do I put the 1,2Gb file in PDA? should I tick re-partition? bootloader?? Please, help
(Current ROM is DarkyROM III v6.0, and my android phone is a spanish yoigo i9300, so according to sammobile my stock is I9300XXBLFB_I9300YOGBLF1_YOG)

No problem! Enjoy!
OK, a slight variation on the question:
S3 I9300 on T-mobile, stock ROM, rooted w/ CF 6.4. Can I use Mobile Odin Pro to flash the JB update that the phone has downloaded (update.zip sitting in /cache) checking everoot to keep root, and do the update this way, rather than using kies to update and the re-root?
And if so, what happens to the CWM recovery that is installed, does it get over written with stock recovery?
Thanks

I have bought a brand new galaxy s 2 (GT-I9100G). It's currently on GB firmware I9100GXXLB1 from XEF france region as this was bought in france. I want to update to Jelly Bean. I have installed the latest version of kies and got everything set up. But,when downloading the firmware update, kies is giving me extremely slow download speeds(3mbps connection here) that's going to take forever to download JB. So, I want to flash it manually using odin 3.07 as other firmware hosting sites gives normal download speeds.I have downloaded odin and want to install the following firmware.
So, can I upgrade directly from GB to JB without any problems? Do I need any special .pit or procedure while upgrading or I can flash normally using it?
Please reply..

No special requirements, that's assuming you know what you're doing with Odin (fair assumption given your post count?)
Actually,this is my first time using odin. I have never used samsung devices before. I have done a lot of reading before posting this thread just to be extra clear.
If no special requirements are needed,will I have any problems upgrading directly? Also, have I chosen the correct firmware for my GT-I9100G?

As the above poster said no problem in direct jumping from gb stock to jb stock, and you don't need to touch the pit files, but sometimes(very rarely) a bootloop can occur, so in such a case just performing a factory reset from the stock recovery would fix that.

Unfortunately I'm not going to comment on whether you've chosen the correct firmware. I don't own a I9100G, so have no experience choosing a firmware for it. As long as it's definitely an I9100G (as opposed to international I9100) firmware you'll be fine

According to the filename it seems to be i9100g firmware, if it's from a trusted source then it's safe for the i9100g.
