I'm about to get my SGSII in about an hour and the first thing I plan to do is flash the Siyah kernel through odin and gain root. Is there a way to backup the stock kernel without root before I flash this one?
Thanks in advance.
you dont need to backup the original stock kernel. you can download it anytime, just use the search function. i recommend flashing a matching stock rooted kernel for your firmware, then perform traingle away and then flash siyah from cwm.

OK, thanks for the good advice. I will definitely go that route since this is the first SGSII I've owned and you would know better than I do. Just for the record if I did it my way would it have bricked my phone?

After getting your galaxy s2,
First thing is to Post your firmware details here; Goto Settings - About phone, and post everything you see.
You might not need to flash any kernel at the end the day.
Happy Independence Day!
OK just got the phone and they didn't send it with a battery...

Good.
1. Your device is T-Mobile variant of the Galaxy SII.
2. Flashing anything meant for GT I9100X including Siyah kernel will destroy your phone.
3. Visit the right forum for your phone, and continue from there: forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1329
Consider yourself very lucky!
Don't flash Siyah kernel at all
Happy Independence Day!
Wow thank you for saving me. Didn't realize there was a subforum for my phone. I definitely owe you one.

Hi all,
I stupidly started messing around with flashing kernels onto my SGS2-P, and then found out about this emmc bug.
My device is one of those affected, and I want to go back to my official kernel, mainly because of the emmc worry and
also the G-sensor for orientation doesn't work anymore.
The kernel I flashed was 3.0.15-I9100XWLPT-CL941023.
Does anyone have the official 3.0.15-I9100PXXLPH-CL378510 [email protected] #3 kernel? I have searched the forums but only found a ROM and not sure how to extract just that kernel to flash it.
Please please anyone, if you can help I'd be very appreciative.

Siyah kernel is a stable kernel and is one of the most popular kernels for our S2.. so it is completely safe to flash Siyah with CWM/Odin considering that you follow all the necessary steps to get it done correctly , here's how http://galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-hacks/how-to-installflash-a-new-kernel-on-galaxy-s2-i9100/

hard brick means, your device will become unfunctional. It's a simple disclaimer.
Technically, it shouldn't brick your device.

That's all you need mate. This kernel is declared safe by Chainfire but as any 4.0.4 kernel should not be used to wipe data because of possibility of emmc cap bug rendering your phone bricked. Root with this kernel but make sure to switch to custom safe one before attempting to wipe data.
Best of luck

Essentially flashing using a 4.04 firmware will brick the phone? or is it when I flash, it will be bad to flash using a 4.04 firmware? Sooo confused.
If anyone has the steps what I should do, please tell me. I am worried about bricking.
If I root the phone, when official JB comes out, will I be able to update?
any help guys? The thread isn't very clear what do I do if I have this kernal. Do I downgrade before rooting?
Insted of flashing that Cf root kernel with Odin or Cwm, flash Siyah 4.1.5.

I actually have the same HW version in my new SGS2 and I have checked with eMMC check (downloaded from Google Play) that my chip is safe from "brick bug" :laugh:
Now the question is: which kernel to choose, CF or Siyah ? I'm planning to use CyanogenMod 10 on this phone, does kernel version matter at all in this case ?
/edit:
ROM will be either original CM10 or one of the variants (like HellyBean for example)

If GotBrickbug app by CF said your chip is safe than it shouldn't matter what kernel you use. Safe hardware.
Personally I always prefer rooting with CF kernels that match my FW version. Then if you're still unsure about the chip... flash siyah, go to advanced (while still in recovery) > reboot recovery. Then wipe data with siyah kernel just to be on the safe side. I always keep siyah 3.5.2 (the first transisiontl ics/jb kernel) for those purposes. CM10 built in kernels are all considered safe so that's the last time you'll ever be worried about it.
Best of luck, man
Thank you very much, I ran emmc check and I have a sane chip.

Samsung releases firmware in various regions and with varied carriers. So I bet that till it is officially released it will take time but when it does you will get OTA if your are on 'STOCK' ROM. but if you move away to custom rom then you will have to update manually.

To revert back assuming you didn't do backup before, download 4.0.4 firmware for your region on sammobile and flash it using odin.. Then to upgrade it when official update are up just hit OTA, kies, or flash it via odin the same way like you flash 4.0.4..
If you don't have idea how to flash then google it, theres plenty much tutorials out there.. hope it helps
Ohhhhhh. I get it. Flash using CF, or CM 10, use triangle app to remove warning triangle and if I need to unroot, flash with 4.04 (my region) using odin? Sound pretty simple. Am I missing any steps?

Actually I get confused myself hehe, by "Flash using CF, or CM 10" you mean flash what? The rest are ok..
Well, let's put this simple, Flash the CF-Root for your phone then you're rooted now, if you want to flash custom rom such as cm10 then flash it (the cm10 zip file to be flashed on recovery mode and don't forget to read the cm10 instruction before & after flashing), if you want to get rid of the triangle then do it with triangle away, finally to unroot and revert to stock, just flash stock firmware via odin..

Its simple and safe. Just ensure you use the TAR version of siyah 5.0.1 while flashing via Odin.

We're all paranoid when we're screwing around with our phones the first time around. But if you follow the tutorials properly, you have nothing to be worried about.
1. It is. But if you're installing a custom kernel its usually to install a custom ROM. So why exactly are you installing siyah if you plan on sticking to stock 4.0.4?
2. No.
3. I don't think so. But if you install the leaked 'official' JB firmware, it'll replace whichever kernel you have anyways. So unless you're planning on installing siyah AFTER installing the leaked JB, this shouldn't be an issue.

Big thanks to Faryaab, for his great work. Will shout you a beer.
The separate kernel was no longer available. So I put put I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXALPQ_XEO on with ODIN and it's all back to normal.
Hi all,
It seems to be important to choose the correct ROM.
I have a rooted device with an XXKK2 kernel (CMRoot)
Now I want to upgrade to Jelly Bean and so I need a newer kernel.
But: can't find a kernel for XXKK2.
How can I decide what kernel to use?
And is there an explanation what all these chars mean?
Chainfire mentiones I should care about the KK2 part, but it seems there are no ROMs for ICS on this radio...
Is that true? Is the device too old?
Thanks a lot for your answer!
Pedor
More info pls go to Settings then about phone. Them details please.
Pedor you dont seem to know basic information,which is resulting in you posting total crap lol.
If you want a rooted JB setup,then go to sammobile and download a jb stock rom for your region etc,then flash philz kernel for jb.
-------------------------------------------
maybe your an iphone expert

@ OP we don't use CF Root with our S2 since the whole brick bug drama.
We now use ExynosAbuse (ICS only) , SU + BusyBox + CWM or a custom kernel like siyah ir the above suggestion.
You got the EverRoot option featured in Chainfire's Mobile Odin Pro.

I didn't read it well. I was going to say follow what you posted. With use of what gastonw said about mobile Odin ever root option. But philz is cool to though. More work for op though
