Hello guys i am new to this forum and i have question.
I have some problems with my S3, now i want to return it.
My phone was rooted now its stock (download mode is normaal and system status too.)
The only problem i have is that the baseband version is different!
Does this matter for my warranty??
If this does how can i see my of baseband version because i don't remember it.
My phone is unbranded and i live in the netherlands.
One last question i already updated my phone with Kies does Kies change baseband too?
thanks!

baseband and build versions are ok. No need to worry about it. And yes kies can change baseband if there was a modem update included in firmware update

Hello,
I am brand new here and just got my S2, which I would like to root. I have read the post from Chainfire. My question now is:
My base version is I9100BOKD1
Buidl. GINGERBREAD.BOKE4
Kernel 2.6.35.7-9100BOKE4-CL-188639root DELL102#2
Can I use the XWKDD_insecure.tar for rooting or do I need another version. Would an upgrade by Samsung to a newer version still be possible?
Hope some can help me on this, not willing to brick it!
Thanks in advance
you definitely can use this kernel for rooting, just flash back your stock kernel afterwards!

That's an interesting question for me, as well. Should an update come out, how can I apply it, since my phone is rooted?
you can always flash new fw versions with ODIN

Update depends upon the product code on the phone .
for updates via Kies or flash generic via Odin .

Thanks for the answer. Where do I get the stock kernel from? Is it possible to backup it from the device.
I read that I would need the adb driver for my phone. I have KIES installed and I am able to get on the phone via MyPhoneExplorer. However, KIES does not work. Where do I get the adb driver from? Uninstall and reinstall KIES? Thanks anyway for the quick response!

welcome
regarding adb drivers: install the android sdk or search in google for a suitable driver, you definitely will find one!
regarding stock kernel take a look here

So essentially for my version I would need the KE4? right?
I already rooted SonyEricsson Xperia X10 and X10mini, so this should not be a problem. I just want to make sure to have the right stuff in place and not to brick it. Thanks again!
No KE7 should work it has KE4 modem baseband .

So you are saying I already have KE7 although it says KE4 in the build? Why should I use the KE7 then?
I tried to use KIES to look for updates, however S2 is not recognized by KIES.
In terms of the adb driver ( I use WIN XP SP3), do I need to see it. I am able to connect to the internal SD Card. So does it work then?
Teddybear2 said:

No i saide KE7 should work
KE4 is not firmware its the modem if you are reading . = Baseband
KE7 Build KE4 Baseband is what about phone reads .
I tried to use KIES to look for updates, however S2 is not recognized by KIES.
No you have no longer got the firmware that goes with the phone so it cannot find correct codes .
ABD no idea never us it .

Thanks. As I am a Newbie I jsut need little advice.
I finally managed to connect with KIES by simply disabling UBS debugging. Now I have what is rquired to know:
PDA: KE4
Phone KD1
CSC KE4 (DTM).
So I suspect I could take the KE4 from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671
As far as I understood from our conversation is that KE7 is the newest kernel and KE4 is included. Would an upgrade to KE7 still allow me to officially upgrade to a possible newer version?
You would advice to take KE7?

Ke7 is now superseded for some by KE8
Modem in KE7 is KE4 .
Once you move to stock rom you may lose your update path through Kies .
You have posted
PDA: KE4 older firmware than KE7
Phone KD1 Older Modem than KE4
CSC KE4 (DTM).
But the Kies update path will always be open if you update via Kies from original firmware even if its much later for updates than flashing stock rom via Odin .
Path for firmware is Samsung build stock rom its then passed to the network /providers for testing and customisation they then send to Kies . Kies matches original firmware product codes etc finds a matching update and downloads .

*#1234# does not work ?!
Ok, usually the PDA is the same as the Build version/number => DXLP9.
Maybe you have to reflash the kernel or the whole ROM to get the *#1234# work again on your phone.
Dial codes will only work only stock Samsung ROM's. With it being “build 4.2," I'll assume it isn't a stock Samsung ROM. Flash one if you wish to use these dial codes.

This is not accurate, sorry. PDA version is the build number of a stock Samsung firmware. Not baseband. Baseband is the same as phone/modem.

You're running Slim ICS; which is NOT a Samsung stock firmware. So technically, you don't actually have a PDA version.
Anyone else this this looks unusual?

Not really. Looks like a Gingerbread modem was flashed to an ICS firmware. That is only unusual in that it would never come like that packaged from Samsung. But it still should work just fine. Modems are cross compatible between Gingerbread and ICS.

Okay... got it.. also Jkay works with stock roms or custom roms which have support for it and i dont think that slim ics support it as of yet.

Different firmware will not brick your phone..you can use any firmware from any region but the only backside is you will have different CSC hence you might not get CSC specific applications..

First of all try unbackup EFS(in G-play there are some tools,i prefer K-Tool).If there is more issues try custom ROM with patched modem and patched kernel. If you prefer read this: post 1441 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48578725#post48578725

Thanks, but this patch I must use every time I update phone. I haved rooted phone, but I want normal, unrooted phone to use updates.
Does anybody alse now how to fix? Maybe modem or update?
Does flashing new version of stock rom will help? Is efs backup just for IMEI problems or can help with s/n 0000?
Any help?
why don't you try to just update your firmware to 4.3 (choose 4.3 stock roms) to quickly fix those issues.
