i9100p - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all, i just bought an s2 off ebay but its i9100p instead of just i9100 and as far as i can work out that just means it has NFC.
so i want to root and put on a custom rom but can't find a forum for i9100p
will flashing a rom for i9100 on i9100p brick it?
thanks

U can flash a i9100 custom Rom on it but if u want nfc on that Rom u should flash the nfc patch....

Thanks for clearing that up! if you don't mind could you link me to the NFC patch? and does this have to be supported by the ROM/kernel or will it work on any ROM/kernel/android version?

U can ask the developer of the Rom for the patch.

No a custom custom kernel will not remove your ROM, before you flash your chosen kernel read the devs instructions and notes on the brick bug issue. I use the latest siyah have had no problems. Read before flashing there is no rush. All the best

Nope it shouldn't brick your device but Instead of using Odin why not use the safer CWM recovery?

please rephrase your post. It's not clear

He meant stock Samsung kernel.
OP: you can't do this, since CM9 needs kernel compatible with AOSP ROMs.
Then is there any way to remove cm9 rom?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
If you want to remove CM9, I am assuming that you wish to replace it with a new ROM. Go through the forum and choose a new ROM and place it in your phone's USB drive or SD card. Then go into ClockWorkMod Recovery mode and Factory Reset/Wipe your device. Then install a new zip and choose the zip file of the ROM you downloaded. If there is any part of this that you do not know how to do, say so and I will give instructions or refer you to one of the many excellent guides that have already been written.
A kernel is essentially only a part of a ROM. So when you flash a new ROM you are flashing a new kernel as well, but when you flash a new kernel you are only changing the kernel section of your ROM, not your entire ROM.

don't use ROM manager to flash anything on your device. It has caused many problems for many people already.
Flash with CWM recovery.
It's very easy to use.
BTW, what's your ROM details?

That was quick.
If iunderstood you properly, your aim is to flash Miui ROM, right?
I'm not sure if you are rooted or even have access to CWM recovery.
Anyway, follow this instruction:
- You will need root access. If you have let me know.
- You will need CWM recovery. If you have, let me know.
- have you found your desired miui ROM? If yes, post the link to the Rom thread
- why do you want to flash an miui ROM, is it because it looks like an iPhone? If yes, there may be other alternatives.
Waiting for your response.

on Xda, you cannot ask for ROM recommendation. Questions like that go through PM. If you want me to recommend you any ROM, send me a PM.
My aim is to help you install/flash your desired Rom safely.

No, u cannot use a ROM/Kernel designed for I9100G on ur I9100 phone, since they both are very much different hardware wise and u could potentially brick ur phone if u use it

Don't know what you mean by international version, if you meant non-US version (use Samsung CPU instead of Qualcomm), many rooting methods and custom ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1685
