[Q] Looking for GT-I9100_XEN_I9100CEKI2_I9100XENKH1_I9100XXKI1 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
has someone have the old stock rom GT-I9100_XEN_I9100CEKI2_I9100XENKH1_I9100XXKI1.rar available and want to share this with me ?
It is the version for the Netherlands.
I'm currently on stock 4.0.4 (no root) but I'm not happy with it and want to go back to GB.
I have searched the net but it seems that the stock Roms for GS2 are not available anymore, they seem to be removed.
Please share this file with me !
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Oh and if possible also both kernels stock and rooted ?
Kernel_I9100CEKI2.tar and CF-Root-SGS2_CE_XEN_KI2-v4.2-CWM4.tar

Just use Google search next time!
1. Rom
2. Original kernel
3. CF-root
BTW, see the sentence beneath (in my signature).

Also be sure that you do not brick your phone since you're on Android version 4.0.4

Thanx ! I did use google but the sites I got back reported only that the file had been removed.
Thank you for the link.
Another question, I am not going to wipe anything as the phone isn't rooted and has no CWM recovery on it. Will it still be dangerous to flash this old rom back using Odin ?
One of the reasons I want to go back is because of the bug which could brick the phone.
Thanx for the heads up

Yes, you can use the nandroid backup to restock the tab.
Just flash the nandroid backup of the stock ROM (do a full wipe if you want)and then flash the stock recovery using ODIN.
yeah do you have a stock 3.1 touchwiz CANADIAN Clockwork mod backup. I could certainly use it if that's possible by you to post one. Thanks

[Q] Flashing back to stock

Hey guys
Sorry for the noob question but I want to double check something before I accidentally brick my phone.
I rooted my phone and flashed the Resurrection Remix ICS 9.7 rom and have had a play with it for a few days and want to go back to stock.
It's using a custom kernel and obviously custom rom.
To flash it back to stock using Odin, how do I get a stock official ICS kernel for an official ICS rom (such as one that you download directly from the Samsung server using CheckFus)? Also does anyone know of a guide that specifies exactly how to do this?
Thanks
You can extract the kernel (zImage) from the rom tarball you download via Checkfus with any program that allows you to work with tars (IZarc, 7Zip, WinRar, etc). No guide necessary, easy as. Open the tar file with said program, find the zImage, extract it. Done.

Need ROM to roll back to
Just got a i9100 with 2.3.4:
PDA:I9100XWKH4
Phone/Baseband (modem): I9100XXKH3
CSC: I9100OXXKH2
I don't find this rom on the roms page, and I understand I need it to be on my PC ready to flash with Odin, in case by flash to 2.3.6 doesn't work out (that's the only way to roll back, right?)
Where can I find this rom?
Thanks!

How do i get back to original rom

hi guys,
i have a samsung galaxy s2 (GT-i9100 - NFC), which i got from orange end of 2011. I the in jan 2012 got help from this forum to root my phone and change the rom from the original to:-
Rom & Build No: VillianROM 3.0
And' ver: 2.3.5
Baseband: i9100XXki1
Kernel: 2.6.35.11-ninphetamine-2.0.5+ninpo @ titan #20
Although the phone works okay, i'm beginning to notice a lot of slowdowns and regular reboots, so i want to go back to whatever latest google android OS the S2 can handle (rooted). I've forgotten what to do and would be most grateful if someone could please help me with the following:-
1. Whats the best software/method to backup everything?
2. What is the latest rom (original, but should not have a provider's bloatware) i can use on the S2?
3. Once backed up, how do i change from VillianRom to the latest/best OS currently available?
4. How can i root the original rom?
Thanks once again

For official stock rom, check
www.sammobile.com
And search latest stock rom for your region.
If you like custom rom, then there are so many roms on xda. I like omega and alliance roms. Choice varies from person to person

1. Depends. You can do a backup in CWM to image your device or you can use Titanium Backup Pro to just backup your apps/appdata and restore to new rom.
2. http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ < Check your device/model here.
3. Well just so you're clear, There is no "best" its subjective. Also "latest" depends on what type of rom you want to flash like Sammy/AOSP/AOKP/CM/MIUI etc. To flash latest samsung do it via ODIN, to flash any other do it via CWM. All info you need is already on forum.
4. By flashing custom kernel via ODIN.
All your questions have already been answered countless times.
Thanks very much guys. I simply want a fast lean rom as some seem to be slow running.
Doesn't get better than this.
sendign the phone for warranty?
you will need to flash back the original rom and unroot your phone.
if they found your phone is rooted the warranty void, experience it before so be aware of this.
Let me thank you guys for advicing me. I am most grateful. I read your posts a bit late and in the meantime, I think i have bricked my phone as i've flashed Samsung's original FW (I9100PBVLP8_I9100PORALP8_ORA) from sammobile.com. I used Odin v3 and successfully flashed the phone, but it's simply stuck on the boot logo. I have even done the following:-
I've managed to wipe the cache partition, but the recovery menu has No advanced options. It says:-
ANDROID SYSTEM RECOVERY <3a>
reboot system now
apply update from ext' storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
test redband fota[FS]
But i still cannot get it to boot. I have also tried to use an old nandroid.md5 backup i made, but odin reports the file as invalid.
I'm desperate guys, please could someone help me.
Download Mode and re flash.
Are you sure you are flashing the right ROM right? Check under the battery to see the Device Model.
If it's i9100, then make sure you are downloading a i9100 ROM.
Thanks very much for your advice gastonw - i have managed to fix the problem now by going into system recovery and doing a factory reset, so thank you.
Although everything seems to be working fine, i would have preferred a more newer 4.2 jelly bean rather than 4.0.3. Oh well beggars can't be choosers and all that, lol! I guess i'll have to re-root it again.
gastonw mate ur a star! I've installed the latest JB rom u posted earlier and i'm very happy with it.
Now before i damage it beyond repair, how do i root it safely?

Hi You could try this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719 its quite safe so ether should work or wont, if don't no harm done as it doesn't need a insecure kernel.
I'm quite new myself @ this so plz use caution when trying it out.

Good to know man, enjoy it
About root, I've seen a couple of methods laying around the threads, I'm sure they're safe.
I still think that ExynosAbuse app is the fastest way to Root now (one-click).
Here's a vid. I never tried it tho.
Thanks very much for the links AnubuRe and Gastonw.
Gastonw mate, i have been playing with the rom you posted a link to. Don't get me wrong, it's great and very fast, but the downside is that it doesn't have a huge number of options to tweak etc. Now someone mentioned a rom called Neatrom, but i'm wondering what you can recommend? I don't want a bloated rom...i want a fast rom, but with some options to allow me more greater control over the phone.
Also, i know this is a bit off-topic, but can you recommend me a widget app, where i can quickly dial phone numbers i.e. by touching a person's photo?

[Q] Samsung galaxy s2 firmware problem

Hi there,
I have the galaxy s2 from about a year ago, bought it form Dubai. Anyways till now I still didn't get the jelly beans update 4.1.2 and I'm stuck with the 4.0.3. I'm starting to face some problems with my device and I think this is because bugs in the 4.0.3, the device over heats while charging or when I have my wifi or 3G on. I downloaded the "AOKP MR1 Milestone 1 ROM for Galaxy S2 GT-i9100 (Exynos)" along with "Gapps" but didn't install them yet:
The only problem is that in order to install the new rom I have to flash my device and root it and I'm not really happy with that. Is there a safe way to get the jelly beans update 4.1.2 without rooting my device. I tried the over the air update but it said no updates found, I also tried kies and still no luck. What can I do to get the new update without having to erase everything on my device.
Also can I take a backup copy of my ROM in case I format "flash" my device for any reason. I want to take a complete backup of everything on my phone including the unrooted original firmware 4.0.3 that it came with so that even if I install any other rom I can flash it and get back with my original one, is this possible.
Please help, looking forward for your repiles

I'm actually very new to xda, I've been searching for about 4 days now and currently I'm reading other similar threats on xda. But I don't really know where or what to search for. All I want to do is update my phone without flashing it, also if it's possible to take a backup copy of my original firmware please reference me where to start. Didn't mean to bother or bug anyone here, it's just that I'm very new to this
No hard feelings
You need to root to bk up what you have now mate. 4.0.4 is the brick bug firmware not 4.0.3 . Do you want to root your phone.? Do you want to put a custom rom or Samsung rom on your phone?
Just go to sammobile.com firmware page.

maybe iPhone is better for you

Thanks for your reply, how do I root my phone and after I root it what do I need to download to backup everything. I don't really prefer to have a custom rom on my device but I have no problem trying anything on at as long as I have a copy of the original firmware where I can restore it back.

Thanks I'll check it out, what do I look for so I can make sure that it's compatible with my GT-I9100 device, or are they all compatible depending on which region I choose. Currently I'm in Egypt So whats the best firmware to download
Get whatever ROM you want.
Worst case, flash a new modem.
Sent from the little guy
Lsw is the new one. Uk base but as gastonw said it dont matter just download your modem you have now so you can restore it later "apriliam3 for them". To root get a dori ics kernel and flash that either with odin "tar" or in recovery "zip with sig" put on ext sd and update in stock recovery and that will give you root and cwm recovery when you have done that go back into recovery and do a nandroid bk up there. Get titanium back up in playstore and bk up your apps with. I link my contact's with google so they restore easily.
Just see chow to flash ROM's witch odin and choose ROM from Samsung development sub forum.
Thank you all for your replies,
I managed to root my device and advised by all of you, and I made backup using the cwm that was installed automatically after I successfully rooted it. In the backup folder that was created I noticed a file called "system.ext4.tar" is this the original android version that came with the phone because as I mentioned above I want to be on the safe side and have a backup of my original OS that came with the phone in case of anything went wrong then I can restore everything including the original current android version. Second step that I want to do is to flash my phone and install the jellybeans. I found two version version 4.1.2 which I know is compatible with the phone and version 4.2.2 but I'm not really sure if it's compatible or not. So what do you guys suggest I should install on my device
looking forward for your replies

A special thanks goes to andrewwright I prefer stock but I don't have any problems trying custom since custom gives more features
If you would tell me how to do both I'll be more than happy. I think both are flashed in the same way but correct me if I'm wrong
For stock sammoblie.com.
For custom gooim playstore app. Have you rooted yet? Mr1 milestone is a good choice as is solid.

But that isn't 'pure' stock. Its rooted and deodexed. If you're looking to fix any problems by going stock that ROM wont work. The only place AFAIK that has stock ROMs is www.sammobile.com.

He said he tried sammobile… i just figured he could unroot by removing the superuser app… not that it would be needed and he could odex the rom if he needed… but i wouldnt know why.
does anyone know where I can find any odin image for any firmware that will work on the P7510 (p4wifi)? I screwed up my tablet and do not have a flashable zip file in the storage anymore, I need to odin to something.
any help is sure appreciated.
EDIT!!
I finally found a stock odin image here (in case anyone else finds themselves in my situation):

Thankyou to everybody for the kindly help.
Of course i had an issiue!!:crying:
I can access the device only in recovery, so as first tought i was thinking to flash stock ROM via Odin, but i was thinking better last night and read more on the BIG XDA resorce forum and i decide to use the clockworkmod "sideload" install a costum ROM.
thats idea was the goal!!
my tab is back to life with the brand new omni-MACKAY_ROM-4.4.2-20140215-p4:victory:
and i have adb working on my linux machine that is extra value.:laugh:
Thankyou again to everyone!
