[Q] Please forgive me but please help

hello my lovely XDA friends...
before i start with my issue id like to say that i have searched and searched and searched for the answer to my little problem and ive come up with nothing that i either understand or been able to solve my problem so PLEASE dont shout, moan or carper about my following question.
first is i own a samsung galaxy s2 i9100 on the three network in the UK, had the phone about a year and successfully flashed ics rooted 4.0.4 on my device.
when I did this everything worked fine except my camera and the ability to watch videos.. skype was fine although i can only see the calling party and not myself.. my own video being always black regardless.
I still have all the files needed should you need to know these. just let me know.
I'm truly sorry about this.. but after all this time im at my whits end with how to solve this..
can you help me?

stock kernal on ics 4.0.4 had a camera issue on the sgs 2 when firstflashed.
Just change the kernal to a siyah 4.1.5 or any similiar kernal without the mali drivers and your phone should work fine.
there was also a camera fix in one of the forums.

hi thanks for the reply but i think i figured it out. i was looking in other posts and stuff about the same problem and or ones about how to root and i think i just used a out of date kernel thing. because i found the same kerrnel i used that messed up my cell but the other one i found was a newer version i tihnk. so i downloaded that and did the thing with odin and yah it rebooted perfectly and from what i see my cell is rooted.
Good news then

I bet the yellow triangle gets on your nerves next ha! i found using a jig was the best way and safest to get rid of the triangle,but there is software to get rid i think it is by chainfire.
Galaxy S2 i9100 wont reboot after rooting
Hi There,
I have exactly the same problem. I did try to root and followed the instructions given in galaxys2root dot com.
Followed the link "ww.galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s2-i9100-icsandroid-4-0/" . ( One 'W' is intentionally missing in the referred link as a spoof. I am a new user with less than 10 posts so I am not allowed to paste a working link. Sorry) I went through the video first and followed all instructions threadbare.
Odin returned a green success message too. but the phone would not wake up beyond the Samsung Boot logo for S2. I was on ICS version 4.0.X prior to the ilflated root and my phone version is GT-I9100G.
You must excuse me, I did not note down my previous baseband version and similar other details in the about phone. I bought the phone from a Hongkong based ebay vendor and I live in Australia.
I am hoping i have not lost completely my phone and data. I have written too that web site too. Could you please help as soon as possible. I am without a phone.
thanks heaps in advance,

Boot into download mode. Odin to stock. Use Odin to flash a recovery. Flash superuser/root. Not that hard.

Ok, I unbricked my phone and rooted succesfully, but now can someone please send me a link for cynagenmod 10.1 on samsung galaxy s2x telus? I really want this mod, I also want jelly bean 4.2.2, is this possible? If so, please let me know.
Not trying to be rude...but have you searched the whole forum? Only because my phone isn't supported here either but I did find 1 page with all the info I needed..just took some time to find...
