Hello friends,
I am living in Israel and got the SC-02 (a friend brought me from Japan).
I put on the phone the operating system ICS (Open Europe - the offial version).
I notice that i got no GPS working , and i got some cellular reception problems (some times delay in calls, calls are cut in the middle and sometimes no reception at all).
From what i have read in this forum i understand that the SC-02 got different hardware and memory from the Eruropian version.
Does anyone knows where can i find an official ICS sutiable for my phone including instructions ?
I found some unofficial guids, for Cyanomode + SC-02 kerenels , but the instructions seems very complicated and unclear...(i didnt root my cell phone).
If this is the only choice that i have got.. does anyone know of a good instructions link (or can tell here in simple words what have to be done ?)
I will relly appreciate any help ...please..
Many thanks ,
Ran

Hi Ran,
I too have been gifted with a SC-02c in Israel.
My first recommendation is that you try and give it back. You REALLY REALLY want the international version which is the version used in Israel. Failing that cry a little after you have finished with that.
1) You can actually burn the local versions of the firmware but you need to preserve the
- Kernel of the SC-02c
- Modem of the Sc-02c
If you do that everything will work fine minus the FM radio and NFC
See following link for help :
---www&japanmobiletech&com_search_label_SC-02C---
replace & with .
Replace _ with\
2) Don't break the screen as you will not be able to easily replace the screen in Israel as the chassis of the SC-02c and the international version are not the same.
The solution: I let you know in a few days as I have to replace mine.
Hi , Many thaks
Nice to know that other guys in Israel already encounter the same problem.
I have ICS (Open Europ ) on my device now.
Can you please explain how can i change the kernnel and modem version ?
Shell i do it with Udin ? where can i find the correct kernnel and modem version for
the SC-02C (does it suit with ICS ?) ? I Cant see the link you put here ..
Thanks,
Ran
having the same problem
hello gays,

can u please guide me how to solve the problem?
tnx,

SC-02c in ISrael
See instructions at the website I gave you. I had to change the "." and "\" as this forum won't allow me past links at the moment.
It explains how to burn "kernel & modem" and using heimdall
You can use the Kernel from Siyah which will give you root access and other neat features. If you want to use the "original" kernel & modem you need to find the ICS version of sc-02c at website
samsung-updates&com_category_news
but I wouldn't bother just use the version from Siyah.
Let me know how you go.
Hi,
After aloog try i cusseded in flashig the ICS official ROM (from sammobile the V. from 16 June). I needed to configure again the partitions (Via original SC-02C PIT file) , after that i turn into old android version (2.3.6) and after that the ICS.
For now everthig is working fine exept from the GPS..
I use :
Model no :SC-02C
Android version : 4.0.3
Baseband Version : SC02COMLPG
Kernel version : [email protected]#3 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jun 13 20:42:11 KST
Build no : IML74K.OMLPG
While i am doing reset (boot) for my cell l see the Samsung i9100 icon in the first screen , any idea way ?
Any idea what is the problem with the GPS ?
Many thanks ,
Ran
Thats It guys !!
I download the "GPS Status" application . I did --> tools-->Manage A-GPS state
Reset , and afterwards --> Download (to get GPS assistance from network).
Now the GPS is working , and everything is fix (with the official ICS ).
Thanks for all !!:laugh:
Excellent.
Actually you can change to the official "Orange - Israel" ICS if you want.
Where can I find the GPS Status app on PLAY ?

Hi,
I have an SFR version of the SGS II, I would like to
Root my device
Unlock it
Upgrade to a faster better ROM with Hebrew support.
I am new to SGS and I want to understand a few issues. I understand that Samsung releases ROM's for different areas in the world and that they are described in a coded manner in the ROM version. what i don't understand is
(Q.1) Will any version of the ROM work on any version of SGS II ? (might be a stupid question, but i want to make sure)
I understand that burning a different ROM version on my device might void the warranty, so I need to keep a backup of the original version.
(Q.2) where do I find the CSC of the my SFR ROM ?
(Q.3) I want to keep the ability to connect to all SFR Wifi hotspots for FREE it is done from an app installed on the device probably by the CSC, Do i need to backup the SFR apps i want from the original ROM and reinstall them on the new ROM, or could I simply find the SFR CSC, and install it once i'm done upgrading, rooting and unlocking my device ?
Can someone recommend me a good ROM version along with modem version ?
that supports Hebrew characters (right to left languages) ?
This are the details of my device,
PDA::KE4
PHONE: KE1
CSC: KE4 (SFR)
Any help would be much, much appreciated like i said i am new to this device.
Thanks, in advance.

Yes as long as modem bandwidth is the same in county of use eg USA
I understand that burning a different ROM version on my device might void the warranty, so I need to keep a backup of the original version.
yes but dont go burning roms .
(Q.2) where do I find the CSC of the my SFR ROM ?
dial *#1234#

Hi mate, since I have a SFR SGS2 too, I think I can help you
Q1 : Yes, you might want to go to Intratech's topic in the Dev section to search the ROM you want. You can also try various custom ROMs from the same section
Q2 : here
Q3 : You can simply redownload SFR apps from the market

Hi again and thank you for your answers, I have some complementary questions
1. in the ROM official forum intratech is posting KE4 rom and stock rom whats is the difference between them ?
2. Does the ROM include the Firmware + modem + CSC.
3. how do i extract the CSC and burn it, after i burn a new firmware +modem ?
4. from the list of ROMs I can burn you suggested (in the DEV forum) which one is more suitable for SFR and how do i determine that the modem version is suitable ?
5. i read somewhere in the forum that changing the firmware and rooting looses the APN - the settings for Internet and specific operator configuration. so my question would be in case i can not burn or apply the CSC of SFR after i change my firmware how do i back up this information in order to make sure that the phone doesn't loose functionality's later ?
6. I don't understand what *#1234# does ?
Thanks and sorry for all the questions, like i said i am new to this
Hey guys I recently bought an SGS II SFR (Forfait blocké), can I root it and install custom ROM on it, or I should Unlock it first?
And what ROM do you use?
Thanks in advance.
Good morning,
Recently i purchased a samsung galaxy s2 (Gt-I9100G)

How and where can I find these official update?
How can I choose my appropriate update to my phone?
How can I install update in my phone?
How can I know is my phone rooted or not?
Is that necessary to root my device?
What is KERNEL ?
What is the meaning of "Dead phone", and how can I avoid this?
================
When i connect my phone to computer with Kies program this message shown up
" Your device doesn't support software upgrading via kies "

Why this message appear and why i can't update through kies?

================
Very sorry for Elongation
I hope a complete answer to my questions
Thanks again
hello there i will try to answer your questions tell me what you do not understand and i try and help.
1.yes there is look here:http://www.mod2xtreme.com/showthread.php?t=11661
2.refer to 1
3.i do not know how to explain this one because i use odin for flashing.
4.open wifi then go to about phone then click software update if there is a latest version available then download and install.
5.to know if you are rooted there should be an app superuser home screen.
6.no its your choice but with rooting you can get cool features here is advantages and disadventages of rooting link:http://droidlessons.com/what-is-rooting-on-android-the-advantages-and-disadvantages/
7.not sure if this will help but refer here:http://www.androidcentral.com/android-z-what-kernel
8.dead phone means you cant turn it on again and it wont do anything,the only way to repair it is send it to the company.to avoid it dont install firmware from other models before flashing make sure its for i9100G and dont use apps like rom manager.
9.never used kies before so i cant help on this.
10.the alternate program for flashing is odin.just put your ophone on download mode then open odin select pda browse for your firmware then start.
hope i answered your question.

2. What are the difference between the different regions of the stock ROMs?
2. Currently my phone's battery drains so quickly, is there any way to have this fix???? Have already selected advanced Wifi setting - - -Keep wifi on during sleep (Never), but still run out very quickly.

Thanks for the reply JJE! can you please clarify the following for me?
1. I've already rooted my stock rom and applied the battery fix, if I need to install the Australian Vodafone stock for example, do I need to use TriangleAway to reset Flash Counter first than re flash the new rom?
2. You mentioned the modem and CSC difference, what are they in relation to the phone and any affects to the phone by flashing the different Region's Stock ROM?
3. My friend is using the Australian version of S3 and doesn't have any problem with his phone. I did some search on the net and found out the battery problem affecting lots of international version of S3 phones. Although after I applied the battery fix via this link - - - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1732722 , I'm still having the problem with the battery, therefore is possible for me to flash the Australian Stock ROM and hopefully the different region's ROM will fix this issue.
4. Is there any links that I can follow easy enough for newbie like me to flash the ROM without brick the phone?

After flashing
Warranty = run triangle away then flash stock rom .
2. You mentioned the modem and CSC difference, what are they in relation to the phone and any affects to the phone by flashing the different Region's Stock ROM?
Modem generally work every place but some are better in some locations and you need to try if having network problems .
CSC just local area network setup details instead of manual entry .

Thanks JJE!!!!
After installed the battery profile, my phone's battery status is back to normal. I tested since this morning with 100% and I still have 60% left, although most of the time left in idle mode, where as when I first got my phone, the battery drop to 80% after 20 minutes after unplug from the power.
I found the file - CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4.zip from this forum, after the installation, how can I tell my phone is rooted or not?

You would need to use an app that requires root privileges .
You can run 6.4 and then it is rooted ,

My build number
Hello everyone, New guy here to this forum but not new to Android. I have had an andriod phone about 3-4 years ago and ended up with an apple product. I have just received the S3 International I-9305 version and wanting to root it because of the power drain and hoping to be able to control this. I have been reading the root section and was about to start but there was one thing it was asking and it was the build number. I have located on my settings on the about tab. I do not see a matching build number for some of the profiles they are asking to match. Can someone point me in the right direction with the info posted below. I would like to root the phone with a samsung based rom. themes will come later, and do I need to have a micro sd card to root? will this keep me from performing the task? My card is in the mail and I cant wait for it to begin rooting the phone. Here are my stats, I have also updated to the latest software and it still says 4.1.2.

how is it relevant to this thread? ask in the i9305 section
Cool, got help else where. I thought it would be relevant to determine the firmware needed to select to perform the root process.

Framaroot should work on all SGS and more but be aware that flashing something like in this case problably a kernel from SGS3 I9300 to a SGS3 I9305 will probably lead to a brick.
Hi Everyone,
I know there are a few thread around with the same purpose, but nothing helped me. I even did ping few members who claimed to have known the problem, to my bad, they are busy to reply me. So i thought i would start a new thread explaining my problem.
I got a new Galaxy GT I9300 Before 3months in Singapore, The shop is famous for selling smuggled phones, so i am not sure to which country mine belongs to. There was no network initially, so the shopkeeper offered his help, He gave the mobile to a nearby service centre and got it ready,
I am not sure what he did, but d phone had CWM and Super User. I already own a Galaxy S2 and i have done a lot of flashing Custom MOD's, So i wanted my Galaxy S3 to be original for a while. So i tried to restore by flashing a official firmware, To my surprise the phone didnt have any network in it after the ODIN flash. I tried an INDIAN firmware, then Singapore.
I tried CWM (which i am not a pro) but couldn get back the network. I went back to the service centre and he told some files are corrupted since i flashed the phone with official firmware.
He again flashed it, now the network works, voila ! I couldn figure out and he wouldn tel me. ****ing $40 !!! The phone had CWM and SuperUser installed in it again.
The phone had the following information after wat ever he did.
IMEI - 3531*********99 it is same in d board and in the phone information.
MODEL NUMBER - GTI9300
ANDROID VERSION - 4.0.4

Can anyone please infer on what the service guy had done. so that i can update my phone to JB. I am sick and bored of the same firmware for over 4 months and i wanna change it. But i dont want to get struck in the same issue. Please help and advance thanks !
I am afraid you had bad luck
1. You should NEVER pay for stuff that does not work (and is not with original firmware).
2. You should also read this - it is almost certainly the same story (in your case SN 00000000 should also give a strong clue things are not what they should):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34226179
3. Since whoever f***ed those things the first time on your phone did not make an efs image-backup you can never return to factory state!
4. You are basically stuck with a phone where you will have to apply a patched modem after each ROM upgrade.
when you say patched modem what do you mean.?
Patched modem ???
When u say patched modem, can u explain tat ? Is it possible to create one by ourself ?

A patched modem apparently is modem code that does not check all the stuff in the efs partition (for instance when SN is 00..00) - I am currently using the one posted by ariza somewhere around. Patching one might be quite complex and for the moment I did not have the time to research that. The only problem that I see is that certain providers are said to be using very unusual modem code (since they have unusual settings in their own network) - and in that case you need to use a patched version of that specific modem version - but so far I have not seen that happening in a very repeatable way in posts from european networks.
The other problem is that when you install any full ROM (for instance 4.1.2) that will overwrite your modem - so you will have to re-install the old patched modem (so far ariza_v04.zip seems to work OK with 4.1.2 on my operator's network).

Yes This is what I am saying the my country's firmware is not available on sammobile or any where else and that's why i posted all the details to request an alternate solution, how ever i flashed a UK latest firmware and it seems to be working fine till now. After flashing build version changed but in Kies it still shows (PAK) why is that so i used odin 3.07 based on the tut in an other thread.
I am a newbie and may be i asked a stupid question.
