[Q][REQUEST] Three UK stock ROMs & Kernels please GB/ICS/JB? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The old thread doesn't have the Three UK available. Can someone be kind enough to link me to the relevant site or thread as I've looked everywhere.
I would prefer JB but will also like GB if possible, thanks.
P.S I am registered to sammobile.com but I cannot see 3 UK in the options.
Edit: I downloaded a stock ROM from sammobile, made a 2nd ROM partition in recovery but it would not flash. Is this because of it being a 2nd ROM or do I need to flash via ODIN?

[Q] noob questions about firmware

Hi, i'm relatively new to this whole firmware thing and found it hard to work out what the newest and best stock firmware available is through odin and what the newest android firmware available is? I'm not interested in rooting my phone. Also i don't really want to wipe the memory off my phone while flashing.
If someone could post links to these, and what order i should do things in, that would be great. thanks.
I am not interested to Leaked/Beta/Unofficial firmwares, but if you ask about Stock firmware, then KF3 is the latest, and for some country like China, Poland, KG5/6 is available officially, which is GB 2.3.4. But worldwide 2.3.4 is still coming soon. And if you are interested in flashing Leaked firmwares via Odin, then you could search in www.samfirmware.com OR under Dev section here in Intratech's thread.
Regards.
at the moment the leaked firmwares from samfirmware changing every week. The last one is KG6 and it seems to roll out from Samsung over kies in the next time. The greatest thing that bothers me is the missing changelogs. So you never have a comparsion about the different firmwares.

[Q] Which Firmware do I need?

Hello dear XDA community,
I used litening Rom now for a while and I think you all make a good job in this forum.
The problem is, I forgot to look which firmware I had before I flashed my device (idiot). Now I want to flash the stock firmware on my device but I dont know which one I need. Is there a way to find out, which Firmware I had before I flashed my device?
My friend bought the same device on the same day and the same market and he has now ( after the update) this firmware: XXKI1
Can I use the same one?
Regards,
Anil.
Dont worry i did the same thing when i first rooted my phone..Forgot to bloody back it up. Anyway click on the link and you will have a guide with firmware how to flash it and what regions there from.

First, Thank you. Second: But how about the warranty. I mean if samsung see that the firmware is not that firmware which it should be, I will lost my warranty. And where is XXKI1 in the list? I cant find it.
first if you scroll down you can see in big bright red letters this announcement in the thread
All packages below this point have the old bootloader so you can safely reset the binary counter with a Jig.
so i will be honest i have not heard of KI2 firmware...how long ago did you buy your handset? what region are you from? take that all into consideration choose the area you are from and flash away.. and trust me as long as your on stock firmware and reset your counter with the jig you are fine..no worries nothing....so flash back to official use the jig and bam..and thats it your official and stocked again
Sorry I mean XWKI4. That was the firmware. You said I should look when I bought the product. Is that the build date, like in the stock rom list, because I cant find any other informations in the list that country and build date?

hi there!
i made the same mistake by flashing a new firmware on my sgs2 with odin and i was silly enough to not write down the version that was installed before.. now i have a fw with the telecom brand. that fw works fine so far but i want to have the original back if that is possible.
so i looked up ur link and found that i need a fw with the letters XX.
but there are a few fw's with XX
which one should i use?

Looking for an Official Rom... Please Help!!!

I have had my phone for 10 months and I have just started having hardware issues with it. There is a crackinling noise from the speaker during a call and now it says that my sim card is not inserted. i have established that these are 2 common faults with the early S2's so I want to send it off to be repaired before my warranty has run out. The problem I have is that I rooted the phone and I'm currently using Lightning 6.1 rom on it and want to revert it back to official carrier software but as Multiupload is currentl down i cant download the relevant rom from the thread in the development section.
As I am new i have to post my issue here, can anyone please supply me with the correct Official Orange UK Firmware. I made a note of the stock firmware which was on my phone before I changed it. --2.6.35.7-I9100xwke7-cl215725 [email protected]#2
So from what I understand i require a XWKE7 rom.
If anyone can help, either by uploading the rom for me or pointing me in the correct direction of a working download link I would be most greatful.
Cheers Guys

Try checkfus from the market as well.
It lets you quickly find what is the latest firmware from your carrier and then from the web site can download.
Check intratechs original carrier firmware thread and see if his links are working yet.
Good luck.

[Q] I'm Not 100% Sure witch stock I need.

Hello,
This is a fantastic site with very knowledgeable people. You are all fantastic (Please don't flame me for being a numpty)
My question is, I have a SG2 that I got from dialaphone in the uk. I understand that even though it's on O2 it's an unlocked rom (tried diffrent simcards) I've tried so many roms and such I was hoping to get back to stock for the official ICS update.
I've trawled through samfirmware and this site and google to try and find the correct stock rom/firmware I need but I;m getting confused by the different UK roms and firmwares on samfirmware.com
Can one of you fantastic folks please point me in the right direction of the official stock rom for my phone, preferentially gingerbread. If it is an older version that would be cool too as I could then easily update via Kies.
Thanks lots in advance,
Henshu
By the way, sorry for the spelling.

Do I use the open europe roms?

Use Check Fus (http://fus.nanzen.se) to find the correct stock firmware.

What do those letters refer to when talking about ROMS etc

I am looking to flash a ROM to my SGS3 but have to start again as a noob.
I have used mskips tool to root the phone ( i think ) In the tools menus it gives an option to download a stock ROM from samsung-roms i think and it gives some different versions that end in:
XXALE8
XXALEF etc, etc
What do these refer to and how do i find what is suitable for me/most up to date.
My carrier is T-Mob UK and the letters from my Device Info page is BVALE4...not sure it is the same thing yet but im guessing so. I am first looking to try a stock/rooted ROM and then i will probably move up to custom stuf once my knowledge grows a little...along with my confidence. Any pointers welcome.
Best Regards
LandUzu
