Problem with Samsung Galaxy S2 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys !
I have a SGS2 and my problem is this; the bottom buttons ( the sensitive ones ) dont work.
Somebody knows what might be the problem. I tried Android 2.3.4 , 2.3.6, 4.0.3 so i dont think is a software problem.

Well im finally rooted ;D

is it safe to flash a stock rom over another stock rom that isn't rooted

as the title says. is it 100% safe to flash a stock rom on another stock rom when the phone has never been rooted?
could it cause hardbricks ? or maybe it doesnt matter when it is about flashing stock roms in odin?
Thanks!
As long as you have proper ROM for your model its 100% safe even without root.

Rooting & Overclocking i9100

Hi Guys,
I always had Problem with installing Siyah Kernel on my Phone.
As i was Using CF Root. Ehenever i tried to install Siyah. My phone got Soft Bricked so i had to Install CF Root again to Get ot Working.
So it was Clear if i root Without this type of kernel i would be able to Successfully install Siyah.
After alot of Research this Thread Gave me Hope.
Universal Root
But i Really didn't Understand Enough.
So i think i must ask Some of you Experienced Guys.
I want to Just Root and Install Siyah on My i9100
Things i Have:
Mobile Odin Pro
Odin v1.85
XXLPJ 4.0.3 [PDA CSC MODEM]
i9100 S II
Internet Connection
A Brain too.
Now Please tell me Which method Would be Good for me.
Thanks and Please, Its a Humble Request.

If you are already rooted using CF-ROOT kernel, then trying to use a non-kernel method again, is both hilarious and time wasting.
If flashing Siyah kernel is your priority, in order to overclock, then let's go straight to the point

I assume from the information given above:
1. You are presently on ICS 4.0.3 xxlpj firmware.
2. You rooted your phone via non-kernel method and your phone was rooted.
3. You did not ROOT your phone by flashing CF-ROOT kernel, contrary to what you claimed in your first and second posts
3. Anytime you flash Siyah kernel image via mobile Odin, your phone is stucked on boot.
Please correct me if I'm wrong or missed anything

ok.
You just did a clean installation and you are rooted via non-kernel method. Good.
Do you have a temporary CWM recovery?
If you don't know if you have, then Please post the link to the tutorial you used

if ur trying the latest siyah kernel v4.x then it will not wrk properly with older ver of ICS 4.0.3 like XXLPJ for sure, hence for that u have to install some older version of siyah like v3.4 or v3.3 and see

If you want to flash another 4.0.3 firmware, then flash LPG or UHLPS.
LP7 is just like taking another step backwards

You can flash any GT I9100 firmware it will work fine and anytime you wish to claim warrant, you simply flash back Indian firmware.
Download it here:

Or
2. www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s2-android-4-0-3-ics-xwlpg-firmware-95534/
For option two, the alternate download link is lot faster than hotfile

If you need to claim warranty, you will just flash back your original firmware. It takes less than 10 minutes.
Now, you need to remove yellow triangle and reset binary counter after you are rooted.

Rooting can not damage your phone.
You are the only one that can damage your phone if you don't know what you are doing and can't read or ask questions.
