[Q] Help did i reset the download counter?! - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Bascially got my galaxy S2 I9100 a few weeks ago , i am pretty familiar with android and know my way about , so the first thing i did was root stock ROM with Cf Root then the second thing i did was flash the Siyah Kernel via odin then dual booted a few roms such as RR or Paranoid Android. As the Siyah kernel enables dual boot i kept my stock 4.0.3 but replaced the launcher with the touchwhiz ux launcher found on the galaxy s3. Since i have flashed various roms and also removed them ect. I have been seeing on XDA that alot of people sent their galaxy s2 to warranty and it didnt get fixed as the "download counter" showed that custom software had been obtained and flashed within the device & that one way to fix it was by downloading well known developer chainfires "Triangle Away" apk in order to remove the triangle at boot as well as reseting the download counter to 0. i am just confused as this is what i done get.
-Say i send my device for warranty and i have restored stock ics GS2 rom kernel and so on will they be able to tell without me using chainfires
"triangle away app?"
-If somehow i encounter a "softbrick" or "hardbrick" could i just buy a usb jig enter download mode, plug it in, restore counter to 0 then flash stock ics & kernel for GS2 via odin & get it fixed free by warranty?
thank alot

u could just root ur phone, install triangle away, run it, and all set.
uninstall any app that indicates that ur phone is rooted and there. also u could flash an unrooted kernel too.
when i had to live my phone at service i did this:
-used triangle away
-factory resets
-wipe dalvik and cache
-flashed via ODIN stock ICS rom
-give it to service!

He simple said:
When you are on a custom rom or rooted rom, use triangle away to reset the counter.
Then do a factory reset and wipe cache/dalvik cache by using custom recovery mode. (you are still rooted)
Then flash an official stock kernel via odin (it will not increase the counter)
The counter will say no and binary official and you have unrooted new firmware
with no way to know you messed around with it. Warranty reclaimed!!

(Help) Custom Binary Download: Yes (2 counts)

Before this my phone was already rooted.
I tried to upgrade to LPM stock rom, so i used odin to flash latest LPM stock rom, after restarted, it stuck at the startup Samsung screen,
then i guess it may also need to flash the cf-root LPM in order for it to fully startup, unfortunately the cf-root LPM has yet available.
After that i flash the LPG stock rom because i have the cf-root LPG. Then followed by flashing the cf-root.
No luck, same happening that my SGS2 also stuck at the startup Samsung screen.
In my download mode::

Really sorry for above mistake, i am really still too noob,
My problem is, i can't go to recovery mode to wipe date or to clear cache and my phone now is dead
Please, anyone can help me, i really really appreciate. :crying:
Flash 4.0.3 through Odin and next time be careful for leaked ROMs.
You can also reset flash counter by using Traingle Away app.
First root then use triangle away to clean costum binery count easy

Did u Flash the leaked russian firmware 4.0.4
and
can u atleast get ur phone in download mode
LPM = Russian 4.0.4
"In my download mode:" = he can enter Download Mode.
Read posts with more attention.
I have an issue similar to this, i rooted my SGS2 i9100T which worked, but it did something to my SD card and i couldn't move apps to it, and some apps wouldn't download unless i unmounted it.
So i unrooted it with that supersu app, and reset my phone to factory default, now it wont even root again, it goes through the process but root checker says it isn't rooted, and the custom binary download keeps going up, at 4 now!

Unroot Samsung Galaxy SII to stock

Phone: Samsung I9100 Galaxy SII
Network: 3 UK - also known as Hutchison 3G (H3G)
Hi there,
A few months ago I rooted my phone using Odin3 v1.85 and CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-PROPER-v5.4-CWM5 downloaded from here. It automatically installed SUper
However I want to un-root it now and send it back to Samsung to fix a niggling hardware problem. I have my USB cable. I tried to search the existing threads in the forum with no luck.
Can anyone tell me how I can unroot my phone?
Thank you in advance.
try here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487
download any suitable rom (any would be OK, but try to found one that is from a nearby location) and flash it through odin. after that if anything is not working properly, flash it again.
try to format data, cache dalvik and /system before flashing it through ODIN
flash ur stock rom and ur root will be gone
or also u can unroot it by using this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719
Don't forget to reset custum binary download counter.
So use triangle away at first.
Thank you for all your replies.
I may add, only a few days ago Samsung released an update for the phone (this was done using Samsung Kies). Since then, I am not able to root access my phone (i.e. when I try to use Triangle Away or SuperSU it says "there is no su binary installed")
Does this mean I need to re-root the phone and then un-root it afterwards? Because I can't use Triangle Away to reset flash/binary counter.

I have. It was rooted properly before but after I installed the update about a week ago, it has removed root access from my phone. Do I need to re-root it then, before un-rooting it?

Updates from Kies remove root. Root it again, reset with Triangle Away. Into recovery, wipe data and cache. Fomat /system to remove cf root left overs. Flash stock Rom from your country in Odin. Make sure Kies recognizes the flashed Rom as local

Ffs use the search and read the necessary information, I see the same questions time after time all because people can't be bothered to look for themselves, the galaxy S2 is the easiest phone in the world for rooting, un rooting and flashing custom roms, if you can't be bothered to learn the basics then I can't be bothered to help you (rant over)

Samsung Galaxy S2G (GT-I9100G) insane chip

Hi, beloved developers
I recently try German version ICS 4.0.4 on my S2G. It works done but it wasn't write Arabic so I changed it to Pakistan version 4.0.4 as it read/write Arabic.
I don't wipe data from recovery mode, I just make factory reset before and after installing the "Official Rom" - as I don't try to flash a custom rom till now because I'm afraid from it - from the phone setting.
BUT, I read a topic which made me panic which was about emmc check. I downloaded the program from google play and run it and "Yes, Insane chip" appeared, Then I try XDA tool too and " danger" message appeared.
Now, I can't wipe data from recovery mode and can't flash a custom rom or any thing from RM or what (Safe or not?).
Please, What's the solution?
I want to flash a kernel what is the appropriate kernel to my phone, and Is it break my warranty or not?
Root or unroot my phone? your opinion please?

But what about the first part of the question about insane chip
You don't need to worry about the insane chip if you're completely stock. Wiping/factory reset won't trigger the bug. If you flash a custom kernel, make sure that it has that bug disabled.

What about custom rom?
What will happen if i root my device with this bug? (by the way if I root, I can unroot and phone warrenty is back?)
How can I disable this bug?

1. You can wipe / factory reset in Stock recovery only. You can also wipe your phone by going to Settings > Backup & Reset, instead of booting to Recovery. Nothing bad should happen
2. Yes there is no problem
3. If you want to flash custom ROM, it's better you flash a safe custom kernel first before messing with the phone
4. Nothing bad will happen if you root your device only. However, If you wipe, create or restore backup in CWM recovery while running the Stock 4.0.4 kernel, then your phone will be bricked!
If you want to unroot and claim warranty, it's much better to flash back the stock ROM.
5. The best way to avoid this bug is by doing one of the following.
a. If you want to stay on ICS 4.0.4 stock firmware, then don't use CWM recovery at all!
b. If you want to flash custom ROM or want to you use CWM recovery, then it's better you flash a safe custom kernel first
c. Downgrade to ICS 4.0.3 firmware

Thanks,
I'm sorry for my lots of questions.
- I understand that (CWM) is a custom recovery can be flashed by odin and it delete the original phone recovery mode and this CWM may brick my phone under android 4.0.4.
- I understand that if I wan't to flash a custom rom I should use CWM recovery and to use it I must flash custom kernel but official kernel is dangerous. then I can flash any custom rom and wipe data from CWM recovery.
- Is stock rom is any official rom? or where can I get it?
- I understand that the bug reason is from 4.0.4 kernel and if I downgrade to ICS 4.0.3 the bug will disappear.
- In my Case what is the appropriate kernel to avoid this bug. and appropriate root ?

1. Yes. There are temporary CWM recoveries too, which will not DELETE the stock recovery but overall, you are correct
2. Yes
3. I don't understand this question
4. Yes
5. Read my comprehensive answer below.
After going through All the kernels available for your phone (GT I9100G), these are my conclusions and recommendations
1. All custom kernels available for your phone are not fully compatible with ICS 4.0.4.
If you flash any custom kernel,
- Your phone may/may not boot
-Your bluetooth will not work!
-Only one custom kernel with the above bugs is safe for ICS 4.0.4
2. If you only want to ROOT your phone, visit this thread
Only method 2, is recommended for your phone. You will be safe if you don't wipe, create/restore backup in the temporary CWM recovery. Just follow the instructions
3. If you want to flash custom ROMs and kernels, then you have to first downgrade to ICS 4.0.3 firmware, then ROOT with any method in the link I provided in 2.

Thanks for your time
You in post # 6 told me if I want to re back my phone warranty I have to flash a stock rom. This stock rom is any official rom or what is it?
So I will re flash ICS 4.0.3 and root my device as you said then I can flash any custom rom to my phone based on any android version 4.0.4 or 4.1.1 with no problems.

i understand your question now.
If you want to totally unroot your device to claim warranty, then visit Sammobile website, download the original firmware for your country, then flash it. This will fully unroot your phone and make it ready for warranty claim.
If you want to unroot only, then you can just flash any stock firmware.
Note: ALWAYS had the rooting method that won't increase your binary counter! This one is very important for warranty claim in future.

"Always USE the rooting method that won't increase your binary counter"
Ok. I'll explain.
1. When you flash any file not signed by Samsung eg Custom kernel or ROM via Odin, it will increase you binary counter ( You will see this binary counter when you boot your device into download mode)
2. If you flash custom kernel/ROMs via CWM recovery, it will not increase the binary counter
3. This binary counter increases as you flash more custom kernels/ROMs via Odin to your phone.
4. When you take/send your phone to Samsung to claim warranty, the first thing the technician will try to check is the binary counter if possible.
5. On GT I9100, It is extremely very easy to reset this counter. with an app.
6. On your phone GT I9100G however, it is very hard to reset the binary counter. I know you can use the USB jig to reset it, but it may not work on new bootloaders which i guess you have already.
These are the reasons why I advised you to Root your phone with method 2 in that Rooting tutorial, which will not increase you binary counter.
Thank you, man
as Samsung till now don't update GT-I9100G with gelly bean. I decided to flash a custom rom
I downgrade as you advised me to ICS 4.0.3 KSA but I still have Insane chip
Now I must flash a CWM to flash the custom rom, It's safe to do this now as I will wipe data from it (CWM)
1-What is the appropriate CWM to my phone? and how can I flash it Via odin or Via Recovery mode?
2-I'm living in KSA which rom i choose [JB][4.2.1] CyanogenMod 10.1 official nightlies or [JB 4.1.2][PA2.55][AOKP-ML1][CM10]P.A.C True All in 1 ROM? as I need mobile to read and write arabic without any external applications.
3- I had a problem "my phone is always open but when some one try to call me it say mobile is closed" Is that from the rom cause of different modem in rom or how can i fix this (this problem not from the carrier as i try the sim in Nokia mobile and worked fine).
pls help?
i am little bit confused if i downgrade my i9100g from jb to ics or back to stock rom from custom rom should i flash the kernel for ics?pls help.thanks in advance.

From CM 10.1 to Stock ROM for repair + Questions about TriangleAway (PLS QUICK HELP)

Hi guys,
my home-button of my i9300 is very buggy and loose, so I want to give it in for repair!
At the Moment i use Jelly Bam (AOSP - CM 10.1 based on 4.2.1)
so for my warranty i have to unroot etc. => factory state (Stock rom with software branding)
I read some Tutorials and watch videos, but i always see people using Samsung Stock ROMs and then the start TriangleAway for reseting the counter. (the counter thing is new for me because i came from HTC Desire^^)
so my QUESTION is:
Can i start and reset TriangleAway on my AOSP-ROM-> reset the counter and then flash the STock rom with odin? Or should i flash a Samsung ROM and after that i shoud use TriangleAway ?!
Quote from TriangleAway-Thread
Note#2: on new devices like the SGS3/SGNote2/SGNote10.1, the "system modified" status can only be reset on some firmwares - they must be stock firmwares!

sry but i dont want to hurt my device or brick it
pleeeeeeeeease help me!!!!! thx
You could try it, but I recommend going to a stock rom, then using CF-Root, then immediately boot back up and unroot in SuperSu, And then wipe data and you should be fine.
Thinking of it because AOSP requires a custom kernel and recovery the bootloader will detect those and automatically set your flash counter to 1, you have to be on completely stock, then you can use CF-root, etc.

[Q] [I9105/P] How To Unroot

Hello Devs
This is a quiestion Type thread to share ideas and solutions to Unroot Galaxy S2 Plus I9105/P.
I have tried odin to flash stock firmware for unrooting but odin failed to do so.
Errors When i select PDA(.md5) File downloaded from samsung-updates.com>>Incorrect Parameters
When I Select .tar file by removing md5 extension.>>Odin communicator has stopped working.
Note that i used triangle away to reset bin counter but after that using above method I am unable to restore to factory version.
Thanx
Have you tried to unroot in superuser app? Go to settings and press unroot
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S II Plus I9105P
ROM: Babba ROM
unrooted but stock recovery cant appear
i want to remove cwm and put stock recovery.
Ok. Then I don't know what to do. Maybe there is some same kind of topics for other devices.
Unrooting is easy.
The link below is a unrooting file, just flash it in recovery via CWM recovery. Then it will automatically uninstall busybox and superuser. If it doesn't work or are there any questions you want to ask, feel free to leave a question or PM me.
