Sup people.
Currently my phone is BRANDED to o2 ( o2 logo boots up)
is it possible to flash the phone with a unbranded stock firmware at all?
Can this be done via heimdall or does it need to be done with odin?
Thanks

Hello,
im new here. Im from Germany and i bought my s2 from amazon.co.uk in may. I think its the GT-I9100LKAXEU, but im not sure.
I need a old 3-parts firmware, with which i can use the pit file and then update it then with kies.
The reason is that my headphone-socket is a bit damaged and i want to give it for warranty
excuse me for my not so perfect english
Thanks a lot

Why do you want to use a PIT file .
Rule is do not use PIT only for experienced users .
Three part firmware is on samfirmware .
For warranty flash stock firmware from link given if rooted or custom rom reset rom counter with USB jig is the method used .

I think its also fine if you simply flash a stock firmware via recovery and then flash a stock kernel through odin. no need for anything else afaik

He can use mobile odin as long as he is rooted.

You don't need a "3 part" FW, there is no need for all "parts" being seperate.
The ROMs in Intratech's thread contain everything needed, you can say "all 3 parts are packed into the one file".
Just flash a matching one of those.
my phone recently deleted everything on it, such as kernal and so on. looking around i managed to get my phone to work again, but the stock software i am using is Korean, does any one know how to download a UK stock version of everything, that preferably is unlocked, or vodaphone, as i have been looking for ages, and cant find any, thanks

follow instruction in this thread for flashing using odin and you should also find official uk firmware in one of the other posts in this thread.

Sorry mate,bit busy.
Unzip file.No password needed.You will see a file that ends in tar.md5.Put this file in PDA in Odin and select START without selecting anything else.When flash is finished do a factory reset.
Done.

use the search function mate,you';ll find the thread you need
Does i9305 need to be rooted before flashing official firmware of another region using Odin? I've been searching for answer for a while but still can't find a definite answer. In my case, I want to flash Hong Kong official firmware onto i9305 bought from T-Mobile UK. Thanks
No, you don't need to be rooted to use Odin
FYI Odin is a leaked Samsung firmware flash tool.
Just make sure you are flashing a compatible firmware designed for your model
Thanks, Will Odin (flashing official firmware of different compatible region) trigger flash count? I don't want to lose my warrenty.
