Rooting and siyah kernel are two different things. As you said yourself, you are new to this, hence stay reading in the stickies in general first before you do anything!

Gday,
Basically I've been reading through countless threads throughout the site involving flashing my Samsung Galaxy S2, I've came up with a very rough idea on how I'm going to do this and I am very sure I've got it under control but I've made this thread just to make sure I'm not going to ''brick'' me phone and and because I'm a noob.........
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2
Model Number: GT-19100T
Baseband Version: 19100TDULP4
Kernel Version: 3.0.15-19100TDULPB-CL710191
Build Number: IML7.DULPB
I do live in Australia and my Galaxy S2 was locked to the Carrier VODAPHONE but its been unlocked and now uses a TELSTRA sim....
Now my question I believe my phone is all stock and Ive chose the custom firmware I'm interested in using
[ROM][JB:CM10:HYBRD] PARANOIDANDROID [2.13,True HybridMode, Size&UI on PerAppBasis]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1619582
So for me to be able instal this firmware i need to root my phone ? to put a custom kernel on it?
Ive searched through the forums and haven't really worked out what kernel I need?
Is this what i need to use to install the firmware I chose ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399&page=617
Hhahaha
I know how to go bout instal the firmware its just the making the phone to let me is the problem????
Any help would be great!!!
And suggestions, i did think that maybe my model could not instal that firmware?
READ READ READ! there is no shortcut... but this is what I did...
READ READ READ! there is no shortcut... but this is what I did...
went Voda 2.3.3 to Telstra ICS using Checkfus to get .tar/.md5. Got sick of that, rooted with CWM. Then went NeatRom which has Siyah kernel. Crap data speeds, so pulled out modem from Telstra ICS rom (modem.bin), put that in which fixed data speeds... chucked CRT-off mod on for the hell of it.
1. You need to root your device first.
2. Then flash a custom kernel
3. Backup your present ROM
4. Download ParanoidAndroid and Gapps
5. Backup your important data
6. Flash ParanoidAndroid.
Done.
If you have any questions, let me know

the things you should always care about when downloading and flashing are:
1. Your phone model NO. Is it compatible with my phone? This is a very important question. Stuffs meant for GT I9100 are compatible with your phone whereas stuffs meant for GT I9100G are not compatible.
2. Your Android version
3. The base of your firmware or custom ROM. Unmodified firmwares are based on Samsung. Stock based custom ROMs are also based on Samsung. CYANOGENMOD, AOKP Miui are based on AOSP
4. Your Kernel. Most custom kernels are dependent on your Android version or the base of your firmware or custom ROM

As Jokesy said, just make sure you flash a ROM made for the i9100(T,M,P) and NOT the i9100G. It will kill your phone.
Also, if you flash a 4.0.4 ROM, make sure it has a custom kernel such as Siyah kernel. This removes the MMC_CAP_ERASE brick bug that so many have been hit by. It's associated with stock 4.0.4 Samsung ROM's, it just kills your phone when you wipe data/factory reset in stock CWM. Just a note for future flashing.
Sorry for the noob questions but IM just clearing stuff up before I go ahead with the flash.
Because model number is extremely important does it matter that my phone is GT 19100"T"

No mate, the i9100T/M/P are all linked with the international i9100. The i9100G has different hardware meaning the ROM's made for it won't work on the international i9100 and i1900M/P/T and vice versa. Good luck.
Yep all good so my Android version is 4.0.3 I just checked, I should be good to go I'll report back once I've finished thank you fellas ! IM not sure what that killa posted was talking about but IM just going to follow through with what you have said and hope it works

Modems deal with network signal, mobile internet and GPRS. Rarely need to change them unless you experience poor reception on your phone. Here is a link to a thread with a whole load of modems if you wish to have a look: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131950
Modems do not have to match your kernel version, modems will work on GB, ICS and JB. They don't have to match the firmware on your phone, just in case you were wondering. Any other questions, don't hesitate posting here and I'll do my best to answer them.

Just had a quick search and found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1227762
The third or fourth post says you can use i9100 methods to root the i9100T. However, it will change the product code to i9100 (don't think this is a problem, just more of would it annoy you)?
You can use CF-Root which is very easy to use. Please dial *#1234# and post your results.
Nah doesn't worry me at all, is this.what your after

2. how can i downgrade to 4.0.3
Download 4.0.3 from sammobile and flash through Odin. Then flash Siyah or Dorimanx kernel.
Sent from my potato running a potato.
You should spend a bit of time researching before you attempt anything.If you dont then youll be back on here whingeing about bootloop or Odin doesnt work....or bricked.
What is the point of telling you to flash a rooted kernel via Odin if youve not read the tutorials.
Or root,then flash a safe kernel using stock recovery>cwm.
And at the moment you are on firmware that could lead to a bricked phone if you do the wrong thing.

Thanks for reply i have a couple of questions:
There is written this in about my phone:
Baseband: I9100XXLQ6
Buildnumber: IMM76D.XWLPY
What does that mean? Cuz some roms have a different numbers like XWLS8. Can i still use it??
On Sammobiles website there is written different numbers like i mentioned below. Can i still use it without breaking my device?

Hey everyone, I just bought a used unlocked Galaxy S2 I9100 and I've been reading guides all day long about rooting, roms, flashing etc.
The phone came with Ressurection Remix and Siyah kernel, here are the full details:
Model Number
GT-I9100
Android Version
4.1.2
Baseband version
I9100XXLPX
Kernel version
3.0.31-Siyah-s2-v5.0.1+
[email protected] #6
SMP PREEMPT Sun Nov 11 12:25:24 PST 2012
AOKP version
M1
Build number
Resurrection Remix JB v3.1.2 by Westcrip
The question is how do I go back to the stock kernel and stock Jelly Bean 4.1.2 ? A lot of guides around here talk about backing-up your phone but I guess that doesn't apply to me since I don't have any apps/contacts ?
If I want to install a different kernel do I just apply it with Odin over the current one or do I have to uninstall it first ?
I might have more questions later so bear with me as I don't want to brick my phone...yet :laugh:

Hey Guys,
i was very stupid today...
I flashed my kernel and didn't write down the original kernel version....
I can get into download mode and CWM.
The device starts until the yellow triangle and then its it...
Now i am not sure which is the right kernel for me to get my device back started.
It's a german phone, not brandet and i baught it in august 2012.
This is the Product Nr: GT-I9100RWADBT
Dont know if i can do anything with it...
I tryed
CF-Root-SGS2_XW_DBT_LPI-v5.5-CWM5
CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEN_LP7-v5.4-CWM5 and
CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-PROPER-v5.4-CWM5
but all didnt worked for me.
I tryed the search, but i didn't find anything close matching mine problem yet.
If there is i am sorry is didnt saw it yet.

My Phone did the official Samsung update to 4.1.2 the last week.
So it runs 4.1.2 and its a i9100
OK forget about this kernels go for syiah5+ or dorimanx 8+ they give u root and some customization this 2 kernel are most worth flash kernels but personally I would go for dorimanx remember on stock 4.2.1 use 8+ not 9+ good luck
