Hi guys,
I successfully managed to root my UK SGS2.
Now system info says:
Baseband version: I9100XXKE4
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513
[email protected] #2
Build number: GINGERBREAD.XWKE7
And here's my questions:
1- how can I now update the phone to new firmware versions?
2- can I still use Kies or will I lose the root or brick the phone?
3- is the version I have installed the last one?
4 basically can anybody give me some "definitions" so that I don't mess up anymore baseband/kernel/firmware/rom concepts?
thanks a lot in advance!
XWKE7 is latest for now.
You can update using ODIN or KIES. If you install stock ROMs, you will lose root access, but it's easy enough to regain it with CF-Root
ROM = PDA = main system software image
RADIO = MODEM = the software used to control the baseband on the phone
SBL = BOOTLOADER = the secondary bootloader used when loading up the phone
CSC = Carrier/Network specific settings and customisations (Carrier Specific Customisations is the abbreviation iirc)
So in order to understand what's my latest firmware version I have to look at this?
Build number: GINGERBREAD.XWKE7

So if mine is GINGERBREAD.BUKE1...?
I'm trying to get my head around it all, and frankly vodafone seem to have made it more confusing. Why couldn't Samsung force them to jsut have the phone with no crap on it in the first place!
Hey pulser ! I come from the HTC Hero board, so I'm a little confused with those step for flashing the SGS2 but I'm happy anyway to see people I already know
So I'm a bit lost and ask myself if flashing in this way will work ? PDA : XWKE8 / PHONE : XXKE4 / CSC : Default (I can't find a CSC that fits for a french SFR phone...)
Sorry for my odd english :/
How do you update the firmware?
my current build is : GINGERBREAD.XWKDD.
When I plug in the usb it shows the files in the phone but does not come up with any firmware update option?

It means your Brazil/Argentina firmware does not have an official update yet. If you want to change to a non-official stock firmware, everything you need is here: Official i9100 Firmwares KG, KH1/2/3/4, KI1/2/3/4/8, KJ1/2 Download.
BTW, that thread implies your firmware should be 2.3.4.

Hi,
I'd like to understand the difference between Kernel version and Build number.
I'm running an android phone and to root it I had to perform a few action on the device :
My current (final) Kernel version : 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513 and Build number GINGERBREAD.BUKJ3. What is the relation between the Kernel and build numbers?
At first (out of the box), the phone came with something close to this :
gt-i9100
2.3.3
I9100BVKE2
2.6.35.7-I9100BVKE2-CL195878 [email protected] #2
Gingerbread.BVKE2
In order to root it, I had to find flash the device with a Kernel that would inlucde KE2 in its name. Why?
So the kernel would be CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEU_KE2-v4.0-CWM4.zip
Now my phone says i'm running GINGERBREAD.BUKJ3 and Kernel version : 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513.
In my current system I'd like to know if it's ok BUKJ3 doesn't match in any letters with WKDD...

I want to know which firmware i have to download it from samfirmware , but At the about menu my info are
(Build number : HMJ37 P7500JPKG6 )
(BASEBAND version : P7500 XXKG7 )
Ad the one on samfirmware is
(P7500JPKG6 ) so is this the same I ave as it doesn't have the (HMJ37 ) in the begining ?
Thanks And Regards .
Build Number
Your build number is the firmware number. On your tablet it will usually be abbreviated, so yes that build number is the firmware number and that is what you should look for. May I add, you may want to see if there is an update you can download off XDA. I may be wrong, but I think that is an older firmware version.
Hello!
I bought a razr 2 month ago and so far i'm pleased with it . I read in this forum that there is an update from 2.3.5 to 2.3.6 . So i went into phones menu in 'about phone' and 'system updates' but it says my software is up to date and there are no updates . I tryed with an usb connection tothe pc too with no luck . I live in romania and i bought the phone from vodafone but i dont think its network locked (i havent tried putting another sim ) .
My question is : based on details from 'about phone' menu can u tell me what update to get and install it manual? And is it worth it?
