You want to flash a ICS ROM for GT-I9100G.
So, you are sure that you have this model?!
Then have a look at this thread => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1619571
Good luck !

Where did you get this other version? What is the file name?
The reason I ask: the version you used in your screenshot in post 1 is for an i9100G. You said you have an i9100.
Firmwares and kernels are not compatible between the i9100 and the i9100G. So if you are using another i9100G firmware, that is probably why it is failing.

Hi yall...
Im sitting here with a good mates i9100... He has flashed it, and now it does not have any signal...
IMEI is just blank, and I think this is because of the baseband radio mismatch as it is showing baseband unknown...
I have tried:
Flashing I9100XXKG2
And in odin I have ticked:
Re-partition
Auto reboot
F. Reset Time
Phone Bootloader Update... (This should update the bootloader, shouldent it??)
Any great ideas??

From what i have seen for flashing through ODIN, they always mention that re-partition should not be checked. Dont' know why but i guess probably that may have messed up something on the phone. Please google to find out what re-partition does.

Not looking good...
Do you have backuped your /EFS folder or not?
We recived it in this condetion... It was already f***** when we started playing arround with it
well considering my un-flashed (freshly unboxed untouched after 2 day usage) S2 managed to lose its IMEI all by itself (showing exactly what you're being shown now), this is entirely a Samsung fault.
I gave it at a local service center and it took them a few days to repair it. They said they had to replace the motherboard and re-flash it (the original mobo wasnt taking flashes apparently).
Dont know if this helps ya.
First off: Stay faaar away from the "Repartition" tickbox.
Sounds like the EFS partition is messed up, without a (working) backup of it, there isn't much that can be done, I think.
Try flashing one of the _user_low stock ROMs (without repartition!) those contain pretty much every part that can/should be flashed.
Maybe this helps.
If not, send it in for repair.
Could you please give me a link to such a ROM ?

No, SuperOneClick doesn't work on a stock ROM, that's right.
Download Chainfire's CF-Root kernel for XXKG2 and flash it too.
You'll have insta-root right after flashing CF-Root

Is there any mirror link of this firmware (http://www.multiupload.com/G1GBNSDYJA)
since multiupload is no longer available any more?
I have tried many firmwares, but it still not working.
Should I try a ROM that require re-partition? Maybe it works???

Thanks man, I've found some of useful firmwares.
But if it would be great if anyone knows which firmwares have pit file. Maybe I have made a mistake while re-partition my i9100 and now I want to re-partition it again by stock firmware, hopefully could file my imei back.
Honestly.. I am new on andriods phones. As a begginer I take the risk to root it myself followed by this website:
But after I flash it in Odin.. My phone stuck at the boot screen and has a yellow triangle down there. I tried Recovery mode but it won't start the recovery mode. Just download mode.
What should I do!?
I am from Malaysia.. O_O
Are my phone bricked? Bootloops? And I need to do something like firmware?
I would like to flash back if can..
by the way.. I AM PANIC!!!!!!

GT-i9100G.. Is it from the back of the box? Or in it?
If you have an I9100G, you'll need an I9100G kernel. You can find stock ones in Odia's thread: [KERNEL] Insecure Kernels for use with rooting, i.e. GT-I9100G_DZKI1_original and GT-I9100G_ZCKHI4_original. Don't flash an I9100G kernel unless you're absolutely sure yours is I9100G though.

Yes, If you really have a "G", best you check out the previous posters link to the "G" specific thread.
Sorry, can't help you any more than that as not 100% familiar with your model. Don't want to make things worse . G requires different firmware than than the International or T versions that I have.
Best of luck.

Hi!
I currently have my s2 rooted and on CM9. My phone is/was the european version GT I9100. I know that region is getting the ICS update on 3/10. Can some one direct me to copies of a stock rom that will be receiving the update?
Thanks in advance!
Since you have already flsahed your phone with CM9 why not just flash the official ICS when it comes out?

If your referring to
"(4) Customized firmware
If unofficial or customized firmware is installed in the mobile, unexpected problem can happen during upgrading"
Thats why I want to go back to stock.
They don't expect you to flash the firmware via CWM or Odin. I don't think it will be necessary to flash a stock rom first

I can think of 2 possibilities why it might not work.
-wrong CSC: find your country's CSC and change yours to match. Here and Here
your ROM must have your CSC or a Multi-CSC where your CSC is included.
-"Zombie"-ROM: A ROM patched together from different originals, e.g. a good stock kernel from one ROM with a good modem from another ROM. This shouldn't be, because you took an original from intratech's Thread. But if you want, you can also try this.
I hope this helps.

It looks like you already have an ORANGE-ROM. what exactly are you trying to do? If you want to get rid of the orange branding, what you have there looks good.

What firmware was you using when this happened. You've sounds like it's recoverable. If download mode is all you can get your probably get best results by downloading official firmware from Sam firmware and extracting it then flashing the zip file in odin via PDA section. All the best.

Flash a stock Rom via Odin. Wait till your phone boots up. Go back to Odin install a custom kernel (i recommend siyah kernel). Backup your stock Rom, then install a custom Rom. There is a lot of tutorials to tell you exactly how to do this process. If you need help at any point of this process just send me a message and I will give you a detailed walkthrough. You should be fine though!!
Goodluck

I've used odin A LOT and never had a problem. I only ever use the PDA section and never touch anything else because I don't understand it. I can't comment on intratechs thread as I've never used his software. Any custom ROMs are normally flashed via CWM.

Thanks allot for your respond. No I am not able to go into the recovery unfortunately. only can go into download mood

If you're planning on rooting and installing a custom ROM again you may as well just go with the Vodaphone one then go from there. I do have a copy of the unbranded one (can't remember where from) so it is out there if you really need it, only downloaded it last week.
I rooted using Philz kernel, if you search XDA for that you will find the info on how to do it and it seemed the easiest way to go...
