Flash the firmware you want with Odin.
Since you obviously don't want to look yourself follow this.

thank you very much, is that firmware safe for my gti19100 galaxy s2? (the one with the middle physicall button and 2 touch buttons? i bought it in portugal free of carrier branding.
EDIT: i see alot of versions, where can i get latest official version?

4.0.3 is the latest version for this fone, there is no official 4.0.4 that's safe.

You can get 4.0.4 or 4.0.3 just visit sammobile.com and go to firmware and choose the firmware for your country and flash. Although the country doesn't matter and also 4.0.3 is recommended

Thank you all very much for all ur replies, it semms that i probably will have no choice but to use this alternative, however i still have 1 last question if i may:
Is there a reliable way for me to know the official latest firmware for my phone through odin?

If your keeping the fone & want a close to stock, rock solid ICS ROM then try Omega V15, you have the option to further enhance the UI by adding jkays deluxe settings. It comes in plain stock 4.0.3, ICS or Black n blue themed. There all excellent but it's widely believed the more intelligent users stick to ICS v15. I've been using it for months with no issues, it's super stable, not,a fc in sight
Here's my homescreen, using apex launcher....

branded firmware for NTT DoCoMo in Japan

oh ic, someone said that its a branded software for NTT DoComo in Japan?
anyway i found out that this was certified on PTCRB way back Dec. 2, 2011, which was before 4.0.2.A.0.62 was certified, so basically still 4.0.2.A.0.62 is the latest software.
however if you are talking about 4.0.2.D.0.5 which was certified on Jan 27,2012, then there could be some changes from the previous build on the specified firmware.

You have this bc you have Gingerbread bootloaders. It is one of the GB bl splash screens. What ROM did you finally boot up? Was it the one that Merio uploaded or another? Just trying to see what bootloaders you have now. If you have the same I9000 then you still have GB, if not, then probably you are back on Froyos.
Your IMEI is still there, judging from your screen shot. I am betting that your APNs are gone. Just google your carrier and their APNs and you can input those yourself. Should be good after that.

"If you apply Theme, Your galaxy player 5.0 is brick." <--- Sounds dangerous.
It's hard to get exited for a new ICS ROM that will most likely never see another update and has the same issues as the rest.
We all appreciate your work nonetheless, but instead of working in different projects, every developer could work in a team on what we all need the most, kernel 3, if that's even possible.
Unfortunately, I'm not a dev, so it is easy for me to say anything without actual knowledge on how hard it is to come up with a new ROM. The only way I personally can help is with testing.
Again, thank you for the new ROM.

[Q]s2 gt-i9100 firmware update HELP!

HI
I just got my gt-i9100 2.3.3
its baseband i9100 XXKDJ
BUILD NUMBER GINGERBREAD XEKE1
my location is pakistan
can i update to xwlpg ics
Yes, just use Odin.
Learn how to use Odin.
If you flash it manually basically you can use any firmware. For safety use from SamMobile.
i download xwlpg
but theres only one file pda
where can i get CSC AND PHONE?
Every thing is in it, just put it in pda.
File should be tar.md5
Make sure when using Odin your phone is in download mode, you have the Kies Drivers installed on your computer and then kill the Kies Processes through Task Manager or else Odin won't work properly!
Chris.

The stock JB 4.1.2 update for SGS2 isn't out everywhere but only some countries... They're gonna release in sometime in your area too.. you'll just have to wait...(if its out in your place then check whether you're running stock unrooted ROM and connect to kies)
Well if you just can't wait then get your phone rooted and flash any JB 4.1.2 of samware like NeatRom or Wanamlite...else..

you can't upgrade, cause yr country/provider hasn't got yet the official update...
eiter you wait for that (cause they have started rolling the 4.1.2)
either you search a little more in XDA (or sammimobile) and you will find stock firmware (spain, argentina, italy, nordic....)
SEARCH !!!!
The JB update wasn't available for my region as well but I went ahead and updated to the latest Neatrom Lite!

its been amazing! super smooth and the best part is its a modified Samsung JB ROM that was released for EU countries! so if you don't want to wait...i'd definitely recommend it! :good:
