I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 SCH-R760 for alltel. I installed CM9 then flashed CM10 and ran into a few issues and for some reason my backup copy got erased. So I downloaded the stock odin files for the usc galaxy s2 flashed them over and now I have absolutely no data. I tried flashing other roms to see if I just lost a file I needed but so far no luck. My job requires driving so I need my gps. If anyone can help me fix this or send me a restore for this specific model (alltel) I would very much appreciate it.
Thank You.

Have you gotten anywhere with this? I have an alltel galaxy s2 also. I flashed CM9 and 10. I did have data, but I noticed when I went to dial in to activate my phone I got no keypad while in a call when it asked to activate so I went back to stock. What is it that you need to get back to stock? I may be able to help...
Does anyone know where we can get the stock ROM? For Alltel I believe its generic if anyone can upload I would be gratefull
I dont know where to find the stock rom. But I will tell you this. In order to activate the phone. The way I did with my Samsung Galaxy S Showcase. I put CM9 ICS. When you dial *228 the keyboard doesnt work. Correct? Instead whenever your on the phone with the representative, and she tell you to dial *228. Dont do it! Dial *22890. It'll call normally and you'll be able to pull up the keyboard. Thats how I managed to get mine install, good lucks guys!!
For stock rom, www.sammobile.com.
Sign up, choose ur device, download latest rom, then flash using Odin.
{Helpful, thank me}

I did my Galaxy S through Odin. I'm sure you could as well through that.
So any of the procedures I've found for Odin will work? I found one for a US Cellular S2. I also have found the stock Alltel kernel. What am I missing? I know the procedure, but something just doesn't seem right to me. The one I found seems to flash back the stock kernel, and if it does that how is it maintaining root?

Check APN settings. Or use a APN app from market.
That actually sounds like a great idea! what about rooting it now? I couldn't find the build that matches or somethinglike that? Clockwork...roms, etc

might be that no rom/kernel is working with the chinesed version of the phone out of the box. you have a gt i9108 and not gt i9100...
and first of all you'll have to root it

hey guys, im new to this site but i have been messing around with my s2 for awhile.
i recently updated my s2 to 4.0 and didnt like it so much and wanted to reset back to normal. i had alot of trouble doing that. ended up buying a usb jig and finally got my phone working. now i have 2.3.5 running on the s2 but the Baseband version still says i9100xxlp1. and when i try to call someone, i cant hear them and they cant hear me. what can i do. please help out.
my info :
In New York region on AT&T
model number - samsung sgh I777
andoid version - 2.3.5
baseband version - i9100xxlp1
kernel version - 2.6.35.7
build number - gingerbread.uckj1
i just want to reset everyone back to how it was when i got it ffrom at&t 5 months ago because im selling it.
Sounds like you got the wrong stock image. You can load the proper Baseband version, but might be better just loading the proper stock ROM.

And could have easily been found by doing a search.
most of the links dont work. i tried all of the links
I checked them - at least one link in each multiupload link is still working. Try fileserve.
In your case, it looks like you need to flash just the modem, which is attached separately from the return-to-stock images.
got it thanks. the phone is working now atleast.. but when i got into gallery, it crashes and force closes. pain

This is because you flashed a wrong kernel for your phone.
# Quick question:
Is your phone on Gingerbread, Android 2.3.x or ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich), Android 4.0.x?
# If your phone is on ICS, then download and flash this kernel via Odin: www.gokhanmoral.com/public/files/siyahkernel/v3.0/Siyah-v3.5.2.tar
# If your phone is on Gingerbread, then download and flash this kernel via Odin: gokhanmoral.desean.net/siyahkernel/v2.6/Siyah-v2.6.14.tar

Thanks for that.
I have the I9100BVLPH stock ROM from T-Mobile UK on my phone so I downloaded the correct Chain Fire kernel (CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_LPH-v5.2-CWM5.tar) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399 and this caused the phone not to boot.
Thanks for the link to Siyah, I used the v4.1.5 kernel and it worked great.
Hello there.
I'm in a bit of a trouble so I need some help. I've bought an S2 for my wife from a guy (in Ireland).
The phone was locked on Vodafone so I tried to root it maybe I'll be lucky to unlock it with out paying nothing. So, the phone is on Gingerbread with a BUKJ3 kernel. I've downloaded last night a CF root but by mistake I took a KG3 instead of KJ3. After flashing with Odin 1.85 I got stuck on the boot screen with the yellow triangle.
This morning I've downloaded another kernel as in KJ3 flashed with Odin, the phone is starting but no network coverage, I tried with different Sim cards but nothing so I went in recovery mode and wipe/format data, system, dalvik and cache as factory reset as well. Since that moment the phone won't boot, it gets stuck on the boot screen and yellow triangle.
I can go in recovery mode and download mode with no problem but I can't make it start.
I reflashed the kernel, I don't know what to do and tomorrow is my wife's birthday and I was trying to surprise her with a nice phone but instead looks like she is gonna get a brick ( I hope not)
Thank you guys for any help.

Thank you for the reply. I don't mean any disrespect but for the last 3 hours I'm looking over kernels and forum and my brain is really wired now maybe.
I've had a look at sammobile but I can't find what you've recommended. A more specific link will be more than helpful.
Thank you very much anyway. If I'm getting advises it means I didn't bricked the phone so I might be able to fix it.
Once again thank you.
You just go to sammobile,then register,then firmware and files,then put the info in the 4 fields
eg
Smartphone
Android
Gt-i9100
Then uk/ire XEU (or vodafone or whatever..but unbranded better)
Then youll see a list about firmware version and their release date
Eg
Lpt 4.0.4 ics jul 2012
Lp7 4.0.3 ics apr 2012
So download lp7 4.0.3 and flash with odin.
Then use the rooting guide in my sig
Then do the other things I said.

Thank you very much. In the mean while I've managed to find exactly what you've said in your answer. I've choose the gingerbread version of the ROM cause that was what the phone had when I've bought it.
SO, now is it safe to go on ICS like I did half an hour ago with that Gingerbread rom?
Thank you and sorry about the noob question, never used an Samsung, only HTC.

I know I was stupid enough not to read before flashing, but now it too late to think about that.
the thing is I've never used a galaxy phone until these days and I wasn't aware of all this things and I don't know how to restore this NAND backup IF I have one, as I didn't make any backup before flushing. I hope I'll get some help from somebody and as I've said, a nice donation will be on the way to the helper.
Try GSII repair app.But you have to be rooted.

Looking For 4.1.2
In fact I was looking for a solution to switch back to Custom 4.1.2 as it was the perfect ROM so far for me.
I have downloaded it from Sammobile but after Installing it via Odin I am unable to see any network and the Phone's IMIE is changed. I would greatly appreciate anyone to come up with solution for that....

Check your IMEI number, wheather it was changed to 0049XXXX - I have had the same problem. I downloaded from Sammobile firmware v4.3 and flash your phone with odin. My IMEI and network connection was restored. Looks like Samsung does not like us to downgrade the firmwares.

Check your IMEI number, wheather it was changed to 0049XXXX - I have had the same problem. I downloaded from Sammobile firmware v4.3 and flash your phone with odin. My IMEI and network connection was restored. Looks like Samsung does not like us to downgrade the firmwares.

Solution.....
Hello guys....
I am very thankful to the xda forum and all the members who helped me to get through a serious problem..
Recently I installed 4.3 Leaked version on my GT-I9300 and the ROM proved to be worst ROM of life. So I decided to go back to 4.1.2.
I installed the custom ROM via Odin but I confronted a serious issue, when I was finished the installation I found that there was no network at all... Samsung's official told me that it is impossible to reverse the Android version...
I had no clue what to do. I flashed many ROMs but no solution at all. My IMIE was also kinda jumbled..
Many guys said it is EFS issue... But it is not EFS issue...
It is all because of different Modem issue.. all you need to do is just install a clean custom ROM from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/ and Install the patched modem... you are done..
So here is the solution:
1. Download your desired CUSTOM ROM for your Country from Sammobile...
Link http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/
2. Install the ROM via Odin
3. Root it and Install your favorite recovery.
4. Install the Patched MG4 Modem Zip in Recovery Mode. Link https://www.dropbox.com/s/geispctijp...9300XXEMG4.zip
You are done....
This problem is all about MODEM version, so I don't think if EFS tricks are involved here.....
Finally credits go to all the XDA Members who put their heart and soul to present all the required guidance for me to be able to downgrade to lower Android Version.. I have only compiled the whole stuff into a single thread....
Thanks,,,
Plenty of solutions....

Dear sir,
Actually the problem is not finding the solutions but finding the right solution.
Worth members of XDA Forum post a lot of solutions for a particular problem and thus newbies like me get even more confused... So it definitely takes some time for us to come to a point when we are able to get the desired results.
Sometimes, we are not able to clarify our queries.....
As in my problem only a Modem was required while I was looking for EFS solutions!
After Flashing the MG4 modem my battery life has become worst. I don't know if it is because of the Modem.. but whenever my phone is on airplane mode then the battery remains at the same percentage but while on network my battery keeps on draining without even texting or calling
