Hello,
can someone please tell me where I can download stock rom for Samsung Galaxy S2 XWKF3?

Product code: GT-I9100LKASMO
I would like to flash it back to original as bought since services here in Serbia are ridiculously picky when it comes to warranty on products and due to my own stupidity I have deleted nandroid backup...

I seriously wish I'm not blonde, to understand short explanations like that

If you failed to save your original firmware then a Google search may find it .

Yeap. Done. Had issues with Modern Combat 3 lagging in Singleplayer. Hmm, btw, any guides to unroot? Just in case I needa claim warranty
Good man
If you ever need to unroot, in case you have to send the phone in for warranty service or whatever, find your firmware in this thread or if you can't find anything specific to your carrier use the most recent one for your country from here and flash in Odin.
Do a factory reset just to make sure there's no apps laying around on the phone that might tip off whomever repairs it (Samsung) that you've been running non-official firmware on it, and get a jig from eBay to reset the flash counter (do a search for "Samsung Galaxy S2 jig", costs a couple of bucks).
Not sure about the MW thing as I've never played it, hopefully someone else might come along and offer a hand (Maybe change the title of your thread ?).

If theres any award for XDA's most helpful member, think you deserve it. Thanl you so muchhhhh. Really appreciate it
Awwww You're much too kind.
No worries, as long as you read up & follow the instructions for flashing a rom/kernel you should be able to handle things just fine, and given you nailed the CF Root thing first go without any dramas (which is a pretty fair effort, a lot of people who post here seem to have problems with it ), I'm sure you'll ace anything you have a go at

But erm, its still rooted
Flash the kernel on it's own. Hard to say why the kernel didn't take when you flashed the full firmware.

flashed the tar.md5 file. Am i suppose to remove the .md5 and change it to tar?
No. Don't have to remove the md5 bit. If you've tried flashing the kernel on its own in the PDA section of Odin as per my last post, try re-flashing the entire rom.

ok. Any ideas where I can find the original rom mate?
You downloaded & flashed the "official" firmware as per your post on the first page, didn't you ? If you've already tried flashing the stock kernel as I'd suggested & that didn't unroot your phone, try flashing the whole stock package you downloaded again.

Ok, im on stock rom. What I did was to flash the kernel for root. Firmware wasnt touched. So, erm I have to reflash the entire rom. Any links I can refer to? I'm from Southeast Asia - Singapore
I gave you the links to official firmware on the first page. Yes. I told you how to unroot the phone on the first page with those links :-| I'm not going to tell you which firmware to flash, you should be able to work that one out yourself given you mentioned your original firmware on page one as well.

Please help me all the links are not working

Hey guys can someone please help me asap,
I have a SAMSUNG GALAXY S2 with VODAFONE AUSTRALIA
Like a stooge even though I didnt really know what i was doing I tried to put on ICS on my phone and replaced the PHONE, PDA, BOOTLOADER AND CSC files on my phone using odin 1.8 and i really hate my phone right now it barely works, I have been on the net and mainly this forum all day but all the links/downloads arent working, can somebody please tell me where i can download the stock firmware/kernel whatever it is called for my phone with Vodafone Australia, thank you so much in advance, thanks.
download from http://www.samfirmware.com/
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9100&r=4#regiona
At the risk of repeating myself for the 8,921,764th time...If you want the original stock firmware that came with the phone, search Samfirmware.com & follow whatever instructions they have for firmware downloaded from their site.
If you're happy with the latest stock firmware (which might be the same as the firmware which was on the phone when you bought it), get the PC version of Checkfus (search for it on here/Google). This will enable you to download the latest firmware available for your phone model/country/carrier that you'd normally get via OTA update with Kies. If you do choose this, flash the firmware package you download following the instructions here.

Click firmware, choose type, then os, then model, then region. Then click download on the one you want on the list that appears.
EDIT: you DO have to be registered on the site to download... Maybe this is what is popping up?

[Q] Problem in upgrade OS from Ginger bread to JB

HI,
I have recently bought Samsung galaxy S2 from Ebay. It is original Samsung galaxy S2. Surprisingly i got a note from the seller that i cannot upgrade the OS.
The current version info :
==================
Modul No: GT-I9100
Android version : 2.3.4
Baseband version : 9100XXKG1
Kernal Version :2.6.35.7-I9100XXKG1-CL349526 [email protected]#2
Build Number : GINGERBREAD.XXKG1
I tried using Kies software to upgrade my OS. But this software does not list any new firmware for upgrade.
So i don't know how to upgrade to the latest OS.
Also if there are any problem during up-gradation will i be able to revert back to old firmware.
Sincere thanks
Hey bro! Did u try to install it via odin?

as Glebun said, use the search function. A first start would be the guides in the General section as they describe how to go back to stock conditions (YouTube also got guides). You can find all stock ROMs here on XDA or sammobile.com

anyone can post official GB firmware + root (2.3.3 to 2.3.6)..cant seems to find it google and xda..all the links are dead even samfirmware..please help would be appreciated
Firmware; if Samfirmware, AndroidFirmwares.net or Samsung-Updates.com don't have what you need, you're either out of luck or you'll need to use something else.
re: rooting this phone - search. This phone was released almost 3 yrs ago, and it would take you ten lifetimes to read every instance of this question being asked & answered on this site during this time. You've been here more than long enough to know this.

Try another internet connection (work/school/internet cafe/whatever) or you'll need to use another firmware, the chances of someone reading your thread who has that firmware is very remote. Why not upgrade to stock ICS or JB & then root ?
