Is it true that triangle away only works with ICS? I'm on 2.3.6 and I want to remove the yellow triangle. If so, please give me a link for stock kernel of XWKF1
yes it works only on ics,r u on gb or ics?
Yes it requires ics
Flashing your stock kernel will remove the yellow triangle but will not reset the counter

You've posted this nonsense twice now in as many days. Please stop, you're misleading people. TriangleAway does not require ICS bootloader.

Ok do this, flash GB stock ROM, after that flash cm9 using cwm. After that use triangle away, if you survive this I'll stop posting this.
Edit:
So he proved me wrong, so I will not post this info anymore.

The solution comes with the new kernel uses by ICS builds. The flash disk actually has two hidden boot partitions, /dev/block/mmcblk0boot0 and /dev/block/mmcblk0boot1 . The MMC driver in the kernels used for Gingerbread did not present these partitions in the past, the MMC driver in the ICS kernel does.

Good to know that, I take boot partitions as where boot loader must be. Will be editing my posts...

How to reset counter with the Jig, instructions on building one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1068522 If you don't want to build one, get it from eBay.
No other way to reset counter as far as I know (but I'm a noob! ).
Here's a good thread for flashing stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1110160
There are two ways, I did the way listed in the first post. Pretty easy even though there are more steps.
Follow the instructions EXACTLY and you should be okay. Hope this helps.

You can use Chainfire's TriangleAway http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22463153
You need to be rooted of course. Read the first post before using.

I know the triangle away thing. But that is risky (mentioned by Chainfire). So is there any other alternative?
I think It's only dangerous if the information about counter and triangle are wrong and you still use it
Sent from my sgs2 running cm9 using xda app
Yep, I'd say everything requiring root is dangerous unless you know exactly what you're doing (or at least the dev whose app you're using knows what he's doing).
Hence, ALWAYS read all the instructions and all threads about the mod or app you are going to use with root permissions.
-LP-
Yep. You could flash the old bootloader (search for it) & your jig will work. But as others have said, there's a very small risk involved. As there is using Triangle Away.
Up to you, red pill or blue pill ?

hey neerajganga
you said triangle away worked, the reason i said it was not tested and highly dangerous was because no one even tried on i9100g so thats why.my question is this will it work with i9100g with rootbox ics with cm based kernel?
also eng.mohamed851
are you in ics or gb because triangle away works only for ics.
Triangle Away does not work on I9100g.. It says MAGIC HEADER NOT FOUND.
May be we need to request its developer to make it compatible with I9100G also..

How to install old bootloader and reset counter?
I have a Galaxy s2 GT-I9100 and unsuccessfully attempted to root the phone and the counter is on 5.
Current state of the phone is that it can only access download mode.
Tried a jig, that didn't work. Next tried to install old bootloader using Odin this also failed.
Initially the phone was running ICS and I believe I must have attempted to install an incompatible root kernel.
My intention was to reset the binary counter and then use Kies to restore the original firmware.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

flash stock rom
Hello developers,
I have a bit of a dilemma i would like sorted out. So i wake one morning to find my rooted Galaxy S2 I9I00 is not charging even though i have connected the wall charger. It isn't charging with the usb cable as well. I try cleaning the port with an old toothbrush as i read in some thread but that didnt work. My phone doesn't charge my friends battery either so its the phone that has the problem. Not to worry i have my warranty which has been void since i had rooted my phone, so before i call Samsung i will be unrooting my phone. I have found the I9100BVLPH_I9100ORALPH_ORA.zip stock file thanks to sammobile.com . I will be using Triangle away to get rid of the warning triangle tknaks to @chainfire and resetting the binary counter. Now the question i need help with is i have the stock rom now. do i need the stock kernel as well coz i dont remeber the name of it. I am in Uk and got the phone unlocked from the beginning is all i can say which might help for the stock kernel.
Right now i have the CF Root kernel

When you flash stock (TAR) rom it already includes stock kernel in the package (zImage file), so stock kernel will replace your current one. In mobile odin, when you open the firmware file, you will see that "Kernel" partition will be filled in as well.

Remeber, when you download XDA version of mobile odin then you have to download separately (special flash kernel from the same thread for i9100 and store it on internal sdcard). ASAIK paid version from Google Play is able to download it automaticaly.
