i have a question for you guys what i have not
do for to get a cell phone brick ?
i have read many threads and the only way for to get it is by using application rom manager thats right or i can get a brick cell phone in odin software.
what if by a mistake set files in a wrong order in odin software
galaxy ace cf gingerreal v1.0 kph
thanks in advance
WHY would you put the wrong files in ODIN, just read the tutorial and follow it correctly?
And to kinda answer the question, what've read is that ODIN will not brick you phone, you might be able to get a bootloop though (just reflash and it should work fine).
Read the newbie guide(sticky thread) about Rom manager, it should be supported now but be cautious, better to use CWM app instead, or just reboot your phone to CWM (dont be lazy).
People brick their phone when unlocking their phone, there should be a proper solution that works without having to brick you phone.

Okay, you know it but i would like to revive my phone.
I have read all of tutorials and articles, but it doesn't work.
I have tried all combinations of buttons, and now i am testing the JIG (301 kohm).
But no result...
Sometimes i can access in the phone by usb, but odin doesn't recognize my phone.

Hi
I got hold of a S2 and would like to know if there is a CF-Root option for this phone ... details of the updated phone:
Model: GT-9100G
Android:
2.3.6
Baseband:
I9100GXXKL4
Kernel:
2.6.35.7
[email protected] #2Build number:
GINGERBREAD.XXLB1
No. If you flash I9100 firmware (rom or kernel) on your I9100G you will brick it. Try this thread.

You mention your links ... but all I see there is:
GT-I9100G_DZKI1_insecure
GT-I9100G_ZCKHI4_insecure
How is this relevant to my version?
How would I know exactly what kernels are in that thread ? Have you read past the first page or searched the thread ? Thought not Have you bothered to search for yourself ? Again, I doubt it.

It's nice to blast when you have the answers ... the forum is for questions ... even in the last few pages in your thread (as this is one of the latest builds) ... people are asking the same question on the version with no answers from you ... so that is why I asked the question.
If you were looking for a version and didnt know where to find it ... Im sure you would love getting a response like this? ... And I have flashed and rooted my tablet and sgs1 ... for this specific build on the s2 I didnt see it ... so perhaps if its not the biggest amount of brain-drain for you ... please could you provide a link maybe? ... It would others find it fast too ... you do have an extensive number of posts ... and a 1st page find for a new version just helps people looking for it .... what you think?
Me provide a link after that little tanty ? Um, how about no ? Not going to happen.

I actually have been searching on the build number and have not found any answer on it. I wouldn't have asked the question if I found the answer. Previously I have found all the answers for my tablet and sgs1 here with no need to ask as I could fine relevant version to flash them and root them. If I don't need to talk to anyone about it I wouldnt ... just with so many versions of phones even the sgs1, it is a risk to get hold of the wrong versions.
Anyway .. too much tıme and effort wasted already just writing the comments on this question. Thanks for showing interest

I have the same exact setup as you. Were you able to find out how to root your phone? I search all through that CF-Root thread but can't find a matching kernel... maybe we should try to do a request in that thread for XXKL4?

Hi .. yes I got it sorted (but not wıth the help or direction from the guys above) ... I now have the g version rooted and flashed (althought I have the yellow triangle on boot - Im not worrıed about that, root more ımportant). If you have pre v 2.3.6 then you can root it without using odin. Odin causes the triangle. If you have not udpated to yet and are on 2.3.5 or earlier let me know as there is ways to root and get the Clockworkmod Recovery loaded without using Odin, thus not increasing the binary counter.
I also have the international version which was pre 2.3.6 so I got that rooted etc all fine this way and then flashed it (from the internal SD to ICS 4.0.3 without increasing the counter).

Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately my phone is brand new (1 day old) and I installed the latest Samsung OTA update already (stupid, I know) so I am on 2.3.6 with kernel 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #2 and build XXLB1.
I want to get an ICS ROM running ASAP but I'm only familiar with HTC phones and not Samsung root methods. I'm not sure if I can use SuperOneClick or if I have to use Odin (and which kernel to use?) ... there's a lot of info out there but it's really hard to find someone with my exact model/rev and I don't want to brick my new baby!
It sounds like I should use Odin, but could you explain what kernel you used when you rooted? Thanks very much!!
EDIT: Not sure this matters as far as which kernels I can flash, but my baseband is I9100GXXKL4.

Hi ... I had the same concerns ... 1 day old and how not to brick it ... In the end I just decided to go at it and get it sorted. I downloaded the following ROM to flash with ODIN (I9100GXWKJ2_I9100GODDKJ2_INU.zip) ... you can get it from hotfile.com (http://hotfile.com/dl/147046000/0697ece/I9100GXWKJ2_I9100GODDKJ2_INU.zip.html) ... I loaded it in Odin (phone in download mode) using the PDA option (if the zip has a password, just use the following as the password: samfirmware.com) ... completed and phone is back ... go back to download mode and get the following kernel (MyGKernelV1.1.1_CWM5 i9100G) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1327509
Enjoy
just sharing on how we can remove the yellow triangle on boot of G s2..
>Assuming you have already rooted with any rooted kernel (ex: myGkernel/superatmos kernel)
>Run “HC-ktool”. Tap "Dump current kernel", then Tap "Reboot to Download Mode"
>When in Download Mode, start Odin, connect the phone and flash any stock Samsung kernel. Phone will reboot itself after that.
>Run “ktool” again Tap "Flash kernel from /sdcard/zImage" (zimage should be the zimage file of ur rooted kernel...copy this zImage in sdcard), then Tap "Reboot"...done
thanks for the info everyone, unfortunately i had issues with my gs2g (mp3 player skipping, gps not locking location well) and so i returned it. it's a beautiful phone but i thought it was too expensive for me to deal with any issues. now i'm hoping for the HTC one x soon! b
best wishes !
i hav rooted my samsung galaxy s2 gt-i9100g to update it ICS through odin3 . but unfortunately in odin it came fail... so i disconnected it removed the battery and put it again and started restarting the phone but to my badluck there's dat symbol comin in the middle of the phone that is phone caution symbol and pc. i cant understand wat to do. i m a nooob so plz help me out i cant send it to warranty as well because i have rooted it wid custom rom. if there is a way for me to get it back to stock plz help me out!!!
ICS? are you sure the rom was for 'G' version only? Are you able to enter download mode?
no problem just flash any stock firmware
connect to pc via usb and flash
The thing is i cant get it to download mode at all. whenever i try connecting it to my lappy i get that mobile,caution and pc symbom. i dont even know if it is charging also. so how can i get it into download mode?
hey konetibharath
that symbol means forced download mode so just get any stock rom and flash it for your i9100g.remember if you connect your moblie to pc when it is on and shows that symbol,odin will detect your phone and just flash stock rom.and be thankful that odin failed at flashing if it didnt you would have hard bricked your device.never try and flash i9100 roms on i9100g.and last thing there is NO ics update for i9100g.be careful when flashing roms,make sure that the rom you are flashing is for your device.

Dude, you want to post crap like this put it in general or Q&A, This section is for posting of developments and reference only. All your questions have already been answered and you would find the info if you just bothered to use search or browse through topics.
Asking questions like "how do I enter download mode" is just ridiculous.

JUST flash any kernel! its very simple solution!,flash any kernel through odin (you dont need to go to download mode) i had the same problem and the same model
and got it fixed ! ,just flash any kernel through odin ,by clicking on pda and selecting kernel file ,and if it dosenot work then i think i will post link for official rom for i9100g
Plz help me,
I was trying to root with siyah.
i followed manual
-Installed Kies on mine Windows 7
-download ODIN and latest siyah
-started odin and browse for siyah v3.4.tar in PDA slot
- started S2 in download mode and connected via Data cable
- after reboot i have yellow triangle (warning sign)
I know that this sometimes happens after rooting
BUT WHATEVER I DO I CAN'T PASS THAT SCREEN
I try to remove battery but after i put it back and switch on SAME THING.
Cant start it in download mode
Computer don't recognize it anymore so i cant root with some other kernel.
I CANT EVEN SWITCH IT OFF!!!!!
Thing that worries me is when i connected S2 in download mode damn Windows 7 has automatically installed some driver but ODIN has recognize it after finished driver update
1) Remove the f word from your post before mods see it & ban you.
2) If you really can't get into download mode, your last chance before you send it off to Samsung is a jig. Probably won't work, but worth a try. You never know.

You didn't heed this very sound advice, did you?
Ok. In order for anyone to help you, you must provide a lot more information than you do.
Model number of phone? (GT-i9100? GT-i9100G? GT-i9100M/P/T? SGH-i777? SPH-D710? SGH-T989?)
Current firmware of phone? (is it GB? ICS? Siyah 3.4 is meant for ICS. If you flashed it onto a phone that has 2.3.6 or lower, that could be your issue)

Ok, that is your issue. Siyah kernels are for i9100 phones. NOT for i9100G phones.
I find it hard to believe this would now prevent you from getting to download mode though.
Do this:
- take out battery
- hold vol down, home and power buttons, and keep holding
- put battery back in
This should get you to download mode.
Then flash a kernel actually meant for an i9100G. (look for one in the i9100G development subsection)
Then, here's something key for you: stick to firmwares, kernels, and ROMs ONLY MEANT for the i9100G.
i9100G has a different SoC/chipset than the i9100, so these things are not compatible between the two devices.

Cite where you read this information please. As stated, because of SoC/chipset differences, I don't know of ANY kernels that support both the i9100 and i9100G.

If you don't know what firmware version you were on, then I'd just start over at this point, and flash a stock i9100G firmware. This will get you back to Gingerbread.
Then you can do whatever you want, but again, make sure you stick to G-variant firmwares, kernels and ROMs.
I will try.
Tnks for helping stupid guy who try to flash android phone like Windows Mobile 6.5.3
PS.
I noticed that i9100 have much larger support then i9100G.
is it then safe to say that I9100 is better then I9100G, and i was cheated since i told in the store that i wanna buy I9100 ??

No problem.
In response to your PM (that you sent twice, for some reason...) that asked:

I wouldn't say the I9100 is necessarily BETTER than the I9100G, but I think that's a matter of opinion.
It benchmarks a little better due to the Exynos processor in the I9100 running a tad faster than the OMAP in the I9100G, but I've heard that for the most part, real world performance differences are hard to notice, and the I9100G runs cooler.
The I9100 has been available for longer, so as a result there has been more development for it, but since the I9100G has an OMAP (which is also the processor the Galaxy Nexus has), porting has somewhat recently (in the last few months) picked up for the G-variant. (CM9 is in nightlies for the I9100G)

Great,
I've done it.
Is there serious danger(i mean broking up w/o posibility of easy repair)
if i screw something up by using kernel and ROM for i9100G ?

If you have a galaxy s3 I9300 just flash the Siyah kernel. It will Root your device and you can make some nice adjustments in the STweaks App. Why it didn`t work with the chainfire Kernel I don`t know. What did Odin say exactly?
You could try to flash it with Odin 1.85, It`s the most common used one.

Siyah gives you more control over the Kernel, so that you can make several adjustments (like over or underclocking of the cpu, so you have better batterylife), while CF auto Root sticks to the Stock Kernel with just Root enabled.
Did you enable USB Debugging before flashing with Odin?
Yes usb debugging is on
Status normal does not necessarily mean you're not rooted.
Try and install a root app. E.g..titanium backup...

Try Odin 1.85, I have read several cases where people had problems with Odin 3.x and it worked with 1.85

He said that Odin failed to flash CF Auto Root, so I don`t think he is rooted, if it failed to flash.
Just out of interest, which device do you have?

Are you sure you have the right file for your phone, and did you read and follow instructions of what to do if the root doesn't "take" first time (re-flash auto reboot unchecked/reboot recovery to trigger installation)?

Its not obvious that's why the question was asked . Enough numptys on here with the wrong phone who flash the wrong files as they don't bother reading .
Why don't you start at the beginning and read the basic faqs and guides instead of rushing straight to bricking your phone >>First question why do you want root ???

Ok no one is rude here, but if you were familiar with the XDA Forum then you would know that there are many guys who ask questions like you do and some of them just flash random stuff that is not even intended for their phone and then come asking for help. You are not special and no one knows what experience you have with flashing something on your phone or if you even read the Chainfire thread.
Then second it`s CyanogenMod and not Cyangene mode
third: I already explained to you the difference between CF Auto Root and the Siyah kernel and if you want a kernel that saves battery then flash the Siyah kernel and make adjustments to your CPU/GPU, there are enough tutorials in here on how to achieve greater battery life with a kernel that supports adjustments like underclocking. There are also other Kernels like Perseus that enable high customization to the Kernel that you just don`t have with a Kernel that is fully Stock.
Also did you try all the tips that we gave you?
- Turn everything off that has to do with Kies
- Download Odin 1.85 and use it instead of Odin 3.07
- make sure you have USB Debugging on

If you want help I suggest you answer the questions I placed in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40429120
Secondly, as already stated, nothing is obvious....if you want people like me to help you then I suggest you just answer the questions so I can eliminate potential problems
In this forum I have seen 3 cases of wrong kernel flashes in the last 48 hours alone
If you can't help me to eliminate potential problems for you then I won't bother to help, simple.......so please answer the two questions that I posted
