Hello community,
I want to root and flash CyanogenMod 10.1 to the s2 of a friend of mine. I already did it on my phone but this time I'm not sure which kernel I should use...
The last time I used CF-root because it was clear which version to use. This time there isn't even a close match to any of the version listed there.
Here the phone information:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It's a German phone so the information is also in German.
Basisband = baseband
Nummer = number
So there aren't any letters in the kernel version and I don't know which kernel to flash now..
I posted this here because I'm not allowed to post anything in the cf-root thread. Sorry for that

AFAIK there is no matching CF root for ur LQ6 kernel ma8.
Hence try rooting ur phone using Siyah kernel v5.0.1 (tar file for ODIN) using 'ODIN' to get CWM and SuperSu installed with it.
After that reboot to siyah recovery and make a Nandroid backup of ur phone.
then install the CM10.1 official nightlies and boot ur phone, once done u can change ur kernel to latest Dorimanx v7.33

Choose a firmware to download from his thread posts, then follow the guide to flash a firmware through Odin.

My current flash is the Frankenstein XWKJ1 from the above link, and I then flashed the Siyah V2.1.1 kernel, all with no wipe of the phone.
Just follow the instructions on the post.

can i use this on my phone which is running xwkf3 android 2.3.3..its from the frankeinstein:-
XWKJ3
Android 2.3.5
This package has: PDA: XWKJ3| Modem/phone: XXKI3| CSC: XEUKH2
i hope incase the answer is positive i can use odin to flash it
i extracted the firmware and i only see firmware.tar.md5 as agianst seeing those 3 files..how do i proceed? can i use cwm on my phone to install it?
Sorry - I didn't answer your main question. The answer is yes, that was the initial upgrade I made with mys SGS2.
With the file you are talking about, you need to use Odin to flash. You cannot do the .tar.md5 file with CWM. Follow the instructions on the post where you got your rom file from, but essentially you just need to flash it from the PDA slot in Odin.

ok i got it working using odin..any tutorial for installing icecreme sandwich on s2

Hi,
Sorry if its a rather simple question but can someone please either explain or point me in the right direction on the different terms used on Android phones especially when it comes to custom roms, kernels, firmware etc
What do these terms mean, what do they do and what can be updated individually or what comes part of other software/firmware/ROM etc..
Also which terms are used interchangeably but mean the same...
Apologies for asking this simple question and thanks in advance as I'm confused to what exactly i can update, in what order etc! BTW I'm using an old miui build and i thought i was running an old siya kernel? I still want to stick with miui ROM....

basical the following is:
baseband = modem is the radio that allows you to make calls.
kernal = firmware which contains the apps and other controls.
build = Rom is firmware, modem, bootloader all under one file.
Kernel the very base of the OS communicates between cpu etc and OS .Same as Linux or Windows kernel
Firmware usually a full package includes apps kernel modem OS and csc .
Modems are interchangeable for most country's
Kernels are interchangeable .

Holy crap? Has the price of the SGSII fallen to where monkeys can now afford one?
Huh??? Noob??? Must be a special noob to get your SGS2 rooted and installed with a ROM.

Hello.
I have noticed a weird problem on my Galaxy S2 phone when I flashed it with an official nonbranded "XEO" rom 4.0.4 from sammobile.com
PDA I9100XXLQ7 and now i have no image when I use my camera (but when i press button i have a picture on galery).
Is that something wrong with that rom or something else happened?
I have modem: i9100XXLQ6 and version number xxxx.XXLQ7

You can either extract the kernel from the firmware you downloaded from sammobile and flash as below. or You can use Philz's kernel.
What kernel to choose:
The important part is the Kernel code:
XWLPX-NEE
Kernel code is in red (LPX), for this example, you need an LPX ROM. However, often, you can mix kernels when they are close: LPF kernel with LPG ROM...
NEE code doesn't matter at all, I add it for reference. It is the CSC
XW: mixed, often doesn't matter for close regions. For example, XW and XX are often interchangeable. However, mixing a BU with an XW ROM or inversly, sometimes works, but often ends in a bootloop. In that case, either boot into recovery or download mode to reflash
boot into download mode
start odin3 and configure it as in picture below
connect phone in download mode to PC via USB
press start to flash the tar.md5 package

Just flash the Rom for your country. For extracting kernel you can ask in newbie thread.
Hope it help

OK, I have a galaxy S2 I9100 (to be rooted) stock ICS 4.0.4 baseband version I9100DDLPC and build number IMM76D.XWLQ2.
+ I have an insane chip
I have gone through a lot of threads and I am confused.
I found the root guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28178105
I want to follow the first step (for phones with brick bug).
After doing that, i want to get rid of my stock kernel. Can I flash the Siyah kernel through stock recovery? Which version of Siyah kernel is the latest while being safe from the brick bug?
Just flash a custom kernel via Odin and you'll have root access and you don't have to worry about the brick bug anymore (Siyah is safe). Check www.gokhanmoral.com for the version you need for ICS.
Thanks...

Thanks for the quick reply!
One more thing, after flashing Siyah suppose I want to install cm10/10.1, I just have to full wipe in cwm and flash the cm10 zip file right?
And is the CyanogenMod 10 kernel safe from the brick bug?

Read the thread for the particular version of CM you want to flash; read the first page for the instructions (which will be very clear) & follow those to the letter, then read the last 10-20 pages to get an idea of people's experiences with that version so you know what to expect.
Simple.
And yes, custom kernels are safe from the whole brick bug-thing.
Ive got to say that the brickbug only applies to 4.0.4 stock firmware.
Its not a case of flashing siyah etc and the brickbug is gone "forever".
Its only gone if you dont run 4.0.4 stock ever again.So if you have to revert back to a stock rom, pick GB or 4.0.3 for your country etc and you wont have to worry.
Only saying in case you dont know.
you could also flash official 4.1.2, that should not contain the brick bug.
