HI. I am using Samsung galaxy ace GT-5830i . I had purchased it this month. Today I upgraded to the latest official firmware . Previously to answer calls i had to slide the button across the screen. But now there are two buttons Green and Red. They get activated by simple touching. "NO SLIDING NEEDED" . It is a real problem as my father occasionally uses the phone. so calls get rejected frequently as he accidently touches the red button. So can i change the way how we can answer the calls.
Details of Phone.
BaseBand Version - S5830i DDLA2
Kernel Version - 2.6.35.7 | [email protected]#1
Build - GINGERBREAD.XXLA4
Thanks in advance. So please help me

Hey everyone, i bought my sgs2 when i was in the states. My sgs2's version is 2.3.4, baseband i9100uhki1, and build number is gingerbread.uhki2..
I researched this and found out that UH is latin america.
My question is.. Can i change the firmware to like XX or to any other?? :/ if yes, how?
Heeeeelp.
Yes you can change. Just download whichever firmware you want for the international I9100 version and flash it with Odin and then do a hard reset after to completely change it over. All instructions and files that you need can be found in the dev forum.
Mr. Intratech, thank you for the quick reply. One more thing, do i need to root my phone to do this? Thanks in advance again.
No............................
Sorry. :/ ----> noob. Thanks a lot!
The periods were to make up the 10 characters that the forum requires for a post.
Lol! Um, if i hard reset my phone, will it lock it? Coz i bought this unlocked.
No, it won't.
Hi mr. Intratech. i just flashed my sgs2 and hard reset it just as you said. android version 2.3.6 baseband version i9100xxki4 kernel version [email protected] #2 build number gingerbread.xwkk2..

Whats your problem?

cant update using kies. is it normal that i cant update to a firmware anymore after flashing?
i flashed my sgs2. then i cant check for updates anymore coz my samsung account wont log in. is this normal after flashing?
Yes just update using odin or cwm much better and a wider range of roms.

I recently upgraded my S2 to ICS - so far so good...
Tonight I tried to check the phones IMEI number by keying in *#60# and the phone just sat there as if it was a phone number. From memory it worked on GB.
Keying *#1234# produces the expected results.
Has anyone else noticed the same issue?
It's actually *#06#
Thanks.... A case of dyslexia!!!!
how do u update to ics??

OK I have spent ages looking though all the threads on here and I am getting confused with all the numbers and codes
I have a Galaxy II GT-i9100
The the details are
Android Version 2.3.5
Base Version I9100NEK12
Kernal 2.6.35.7-I9100XWK18-CL616395 [email protected] #2
Build Number GINGERBREAD XWK18
I have tried to follow a few links of here to unlock it but the links they show to the 'ODIN' are dead.
All I want to do is Unlock it from the present provider (UK)3 to be able to use another SIM.
Later on I might want to change the ROM
I have Changemod 7 on my old Desire.
Could any kind soul please point me in the right directions for the files software I need.
I know this keeps getting asked over and over again but I do really find the jargon hard to follow.
Thanks again you are a great bunch.
Did you try this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092451
Try (root)Galaxy S2 sim unlock by chainfire from google play. However it does require root .

Think you really need to read the roll up sticky thread.
In the mean time.. Do this..
Turn of phone. Take out battery for a minute. Put battery back in..then..
Press volume up, main button at bottom of screen," menu button " and power button at same time and wait for phone to turn on.. You should then be in recovery.. Go down to data/factory reset and select it. Then reboot.

Yep read that
Had to get a stock ROM tar , Using Orion to fix it now.
Wouldn't go into recovery mode
OK I can get the standard ROM back on but it won't root or install recovery

Meant Odin Still can't get the SIM lock to unlock
Hi!
All you need to do is flash a standard firmware with odin.
Here is the thread for Official firmwares, with instructions.
You want:
XWLPD
Firmware info
PDA:XWLPD
PHONE: XXLPW
Date: 08/05/2012
Android 4.0.3
This is ICS and is located 2nd from bottom of third post.
Does it matter it says its for the GT ?
Thanks
any clue on SIMunlocking not working ? DO I need a SIM card in the phone ?
and do I need the Kernal and do I update it after the firmware the same way with Orion ?
Thanks

According to your OP, you have the GT-I9100. If correct then that is the firmware required for an upgrade to ICS. You will not have any sim lock after this and just leave sim in if you like.

Let the phone boot, shut it down. Then as before, flash
CF-Root-SGS2_XX_NEE_LPD-v5.5-CWM5.zip from (unzip and extract tar to flash) here
Please be aware that this is the Official Samsung firmware and you will have Samsung's interpretation ei similar looks to GB.
Hi to everybody, and sorry for my poor english.
I'm using Samsung Galaxy S II running ReVolt 2.6.
I got message for upgrade the rom to version 2.7. I follow the upgrade procedure found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28380395.
But when phone restart it doesn't recognize operator sim. It always reboot itself when I unlock it and put the pin code.
If I use phone with airplane mod all works fine.
Any suggestion?
Thank you in advance.

I heard using the phone sim lock was the problem, try removing that and start the phone and I joined on December 3rd, anyway please note that nobody is inclined to give you an answer, so there is no need for sarcasm.
Using GT - I9100
I thank those who give helpful comments
I expect the same from others.

So I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 phone and I am having this frustrating problem. It's like this, my android is on the table and i press the Home Button to check for any notifications and I realize it's off so I Long Press the Power Button to turn it on nothing happens. The only way to turn it on is by removing the battery and putting it back again and then Long Pressing the Power Button will turn my S2 on. I honestly don't know what is causing this, if it is a hardware or a software problem. It's very annoying because sometime awaiting for an important call while your android is dead can have serious results.**
Model Number:*GT-I9100G

Baseband Version:*I9100GXXLSP

Thank you.

Sounds like a sod is happening. Are you rooted and have cwm installed. Try cleaning data in recovery if you are rooted. If not rooted flash stock with odin.
