Hello fellow Bell Galaxy s2 users,
I read tons of posts that said the stock kernel for our Galaxy s2 is not available to download from Samsung server. However, if you go to https://opensource.samsung.com/ and search I9100M, there is one file available for download.
Now, I don't know whether this is the kernel or something else entirely...... could somebody verify what this file could be?
Cheers,
I believe that file is the source code for our firmware. Unfortunately we cant just flash it to our phones. I'm not an expert on this but I think that it still needs to be compiled.
can't someone compile it then and post it? How hard can it be? or is there bigger problems than that?
Yes. I agree, please compile this! I really would love to have a flashable stock rom for my GT-I9100M.

I've sent a message to intratech requesting to add the i9100M to his 'official ROM' thread.

The url is not working and I can't find this kernel ANYWHERE. I tried rooting with a clearly non-compatible kernel and it won't get past the boot with the caution sign. Can someone fix the link please? Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Hello how i can back to stock my galaxy s2? i rooted and put checkrom works nice but i want to learn how get back to stock again im confused
I didnt wrote down the pda version and kernel before install checkrom and rooted what recommend me to do?
thanks.
Just flash official firmware package from Intratech's XDA firmware thread via Odin.
Use your Product Code (sometimes found on your box) on the Chek Fus Download website to find your original PDA etc (if you're not 100% sure) or search the first couple thread posts for match.
Follow his flash instructions and you're done

you can get your stock firmware from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
It also includes instructions of using odin and flashing the downloaded firmware .... if you are rooted take a nandroid backup every time you flash custom from stock ........ that ways you'll always have a backup of the stock firmware ......
Yep, my post is rather incomplete, forgot to add the link cheers

So I just came across this and got to this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 however, I am SO lost. I don't know what firmware I'm supposed to download. Yes I'm a noob, but seriously trying to figure all of this out so help is greatly appreciated. OH and I'm trying to get back to stock in attempts to get CF root to hopefully get cyanogenmod to install rather than abort the installation.

Actually all the firmwares provided in the thread are stock ..........
If you are a Noob i would not recommend cyanogenmod though it is pretty good but i've heard it's for advanced users and stuff ........ why do you need to flash stock is my primary question ........... use this thread only http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
You need to update latest firmware for your region as a KIES update is there / on the way?
Find out the latest firmware for your region to flash via http://fus.nanzen.se/ it will provide you with the stock firmware your phone should have after selecting the specific region.
You need to update latest firmware irrespective of region (like Me)
Just download the latest firmware available in the 2nd or 3rd section of the thread. in this case 2.3.6 (KK2 or KK5).
In case of any more issues post back.
so I tried kk2 and kk5 and kk2 gave me no service, and kk5 failed to even install. I'm at a loss. I really want CF root, but can't install it on the stock eg30 that I've been using as my stock rom. SO what next? Any other way to figure out which stock firmware from that link will work for my phone?
hello???
Is there anyone who can help me figure this out?????
Hi, what I want to know is what is the latest original Samsung firmware for the Galaxy Ace? Or baseband as you might call it.
I currently have S5830XWKP6 (I think maybe KPN?) baseband
And CyanogenMod 7.1
Now I want to update to 7.2 tonight but I also want to update my baseband (because I have the wake up lag and wifi problem etc.)
So what's the newest/best baseband/samsung firmware?
Much help would be appreciated, thanks...

XXKPP Android 2.3.6 is newest.
Thank you, I can't find that on samfirmware anywhere so is it actually genuine?

One more question, Iv'e downloaded the firmware and odin but I haven't got the 'OPS' file. Where can I find that?
Right here man !
http://www.multiupload.com/N1TQ49HORW
Thanks, all done only thing is it seems that the wake up lag is still present in this version (or atleast on my phone).
I seen in another post that DXKPD is now the latest version... Does anyone know if this is true? And if so is it any better?
Also Iv'e found that CM 7.2 is a little bit buggy, and was thinking about changing for now to Icecream Sunday2 as I like the look of this rom... Does anyone know if its any good and better than CM 7.2?
Help would be really appreciated, thanks.
dxkpd is for asia region.. but u can try it if u want..
Hi, I just bought myself a Samsung Galaxy S2, specifically Gt-I9100M.
I am on the old Gingerbread software, and my phone is currently in a Stock and ROOTED Bell ROM I believe(I got Superuser).
I want to upgrade to ICS, and could you please tell me if following this extremely simple guide will work? galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-unroot/how-to-unrootunbrick-your-galaxy-s2-i9100-ics/
screenshot added.
To unroot, you need to flash the original kernel ugkg2. However, to flash it, you need to do it through Odin. Then, why flash the kernel only when you can flash the full ics firmware instead.
My suggestion, flash the full firmware instead. It's going to be quicker.
If you don't know Odin, read read and read again before doing anything. This forum is your friend.

So you are saying just follow the guide I put in the link and I should be fine? NOthing else to do?
Your link make it seem simple but itcould turn into a nightmare if you don't know what to do. Read the forum on how to use odin and what not to do and you should be fine.
Anyone?

Thanks a lot for posting a reply, but based on what the guide said and what you saw my phone has, should I be fine by just using the guide? I read the forum btw about odin.

You can use the guide, but dont use the stock rom attached. Use the one for the i9100M found at sammobile.com. Just search for the i9100M rom.

Thanks for the info!! I found many links in the sammobile webpage. Can you tell me which one to pick from that list? I looked up i9100m and there was a 4.0.3 Firmware from my carrier there(bell). Should I just download that rom, follow the guide from the link and just do what it says, I dont have to do anything else?
I know Im annoying, but Im new here

Download the one for your carrier and follow the guide as said. It will install stock ICS (no root). Just in case though, I suggest you backup your data on your phone to your computer or such.
The one for our phone is UGLD3. Download it. Download also UGKG2 just in case something happen with the installation. When I tried to update my phone I had a Kernel Upload Panic Mode error. I had to reinstall UGKG2 to make my phone work again.

Just saw my friend updating his sgs2, IT WAS A NIGHTMARE!! ICS was not stable enough, some apps wont even work, basically VERY minor things changed, in short ICS was a disaster for the SGS2.
Do you or anyone know a way to backup my Gingerbread SGS2 in a way so that I can use that backup in case of an emergency?

As I said, download UGKG2, which is gingerbread. If anything happen, just reinstall it using ODIN. had a bad install with ICS at first and I just reinstalled UGKG2 and all my apps and setting were still there once I reinstalled UGKG2.

No such thing as a 'kerenel'
... Thx for the informative reply
You can take a look at sammobile.com you'll find all new and old stock ROMs that you can flash with odin. Stock kernel is provided

Only saw there stock roms by country. I'm looking for the clean samsung rom, unchanged by the cellular operators (if such thing exists).
Thanks,
Your posts arent very informative either.
1.post details about phone.
2.if you want an unbranded stock firmware........then say so
3.read threads about noobs
Take a look at this thread, I hope it would help
