Hi all,
I have the following device:
Baseband version I9100PBVKI2
Kernel Version 2.6.35.7-I9100PBVKI3-CL608158 [email protected] #2
Build number GINGERBREAD.BVKI3
It looks like there aren't that many discussions on the P variant, and i haven't been able to track down the official stock rom/kernel for this model, can anyone point me in the right direction please? I have checked the official rom page but there isn't anything for PBVKI2
I have used Odin to put on clockworkmod 4.0.1.5 as i was doing some experimenting, i'd like to put the device back to the way it was if possible.
Many thanks!
Try CHECK FUS post .

Sorry, forgive me, i dont understand, what does that mean?

Search XDA for the post entitled CHECK FUS and read it .
Or check Samfirmware.com
If you want to find firmware that is not in the stock or provider roms posts .

Hi jje, i follow now, sorry about that!
I've checked Fus (windows) and fus (market) both are identifying my device but aren't able to find the I9100P UK Orange firmware to download, only I9100P France . I've mailed the developer but i'm guessing its not there as noone has it yet? Or something? i'm a bit lost
sammobile oinly has the french one too
Update:
Developer has kindly added the UK Orange I9100P firmware to Check Fus

Hey Spoonflames,
have you been able to find the original kernel for this? I've get the FW but the kernel would be nice to have...
Cheers

Thanks! I didn't know you could "dump out" your own kernel, is that difficult to do?
So your original kernel that you have extracted and now shared, is that in french or specific in someway or something or are these kernels generic for all GT-I9100P?
I'm about to root mine and as such I need to put a insecure kernel in first but then I would like to put a stock kernel in again, can I use your or should I try and extract my own. My GT-I9100P is on Orange but here in UK.
Thanks for your help!
You can use that one you have now..
also u can use HC-KTOOL from market to dump ur own kernel

Hi,
You're welcome
i've use HC-KTOOL (as Nyssa1104 say), but it doesn't work on ours GT-I9100P.
You need to edit your ro.product.model=GT-I9100P to ro.product.model=GT-I9100 , so without "P", reboot, and now HC-KTOOL work
Also, you can use my dump to flash yours , as you have the same original kernel.
Hey guys,
I have the Orange UK 9100P also. Can you list the steps you've taken/will take to root it? What custom ROM are you planning on putting on it or are you just after ROOT on stock atm? I've spent the past 18 month playing with HTC's and this just seems foreign to me atm...
Model Number: GT-I9100P
Android version: 2.3.4
Baseband Version: I9100PBVKI2
Kernel Version: [email protected] #2
Build number: GINGERBREAD.BVKI3
Thanks and sorry to be such a pain!

I'm being such a paranoid moron today - sorry guys
Just starting to get my head around the 101 different kernels. The Desire was sooo much simpler to root and S-Off
So in short - if I download the 9100PBVKI3_insecure kernel and follow Odin's rooting guide I will get my stock ROM, rooted, with busy box/SU and a yellow triangle on start-up... correct?
I can then take the Kernel listed above and replace the insecure one and the triangle goes away but the root persists?
Can I then use ClockworkMod to install ROM via recovery as I did on my Desire?
So many stupid questions I apologise... I will give the knowledge back to the community I swear
Also, which ROm on FUS is the UK one... there are several French ones and several that say (Made by user)... I presume the made by user would be the one requested earlier in this thread? I could then use this stock ROM to return the unit to "normal" for say warranty returns etc?

Looking for exactly the same information , and also coming from a Desire , which was simples ! and sharing a small amout of paranoia ! lol
Hi guys. I am new on forum and I own a new GT-I9100P Orange France. I have it for a couple of days and I think of a root method. This is my first Smartphone, so I am a beginner. I found this thread from google, I managed to learn something about rooting, but I still have problems. Let me explain what I understood and correct me if iI mistake.
So, GT-I9100P's kernel can't be rooted. I found on a thread here a page that talks about kernels and I managed to find an insecure kernel and a quick root .cmd file, thanks to Nyssa1104. If I falsh with Odin that kernel and then I run the rooting proccess, it should end successfully. But, besides the stability problems, a red triangle appears on boot. So, I understood that, after I root the device on a insecure kernel, than I must change back to the original (you named this "stock" I think) and it will be alright.
I have some questions too: can I find exactly the stock kernel??? If I change it, will the phone remain rooted??? Before I launch the root.cmd, the phone must be in downloading mode??? And this change will affect it's performance and stability???
Thanks a lot for attention and sorry for my bag english!
Please help me! Anyone here..?

Yes to root turn fone off once off press volume down(-) home & power buttons all together. look for your stock kernal and reflash and you be ok and yes root will remain.
original http://www.filesonic.com/file/4305715615/GT-I9100P_BVKI2_original.zip just make sure double check ok main link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671
So, to run the automatic root procedure (root.cmd), the phone must be turned off and in download mode, thanks for answer. After it finishes, it will restart, won't it....
And after root I need to return to the original kernel. Just 2 questions:
1) How long does it takes to reflash wih Odin and I must wait some time before reflashing it?
2) This change will generate stability problems? What are the risks?
Hi again guys! I read about the CF-Root Kernel, which comes with root preinstalled. I think that I will flash this kernel because it's easy for me, a beginner, to root the phone. But on another forum I heard that GT-I9100P can't accept much kernels because it will lose it's NFC capabilities. Can you recommend me a kernel which is safe for my phone? Please, help me!!!

Something else: my phone kernel is BVki3, not BVKI2. So this means that the phone will not work with this kernel?

if you wan't to upgrade you don't need to unroot, just flash firmware trough odin (addicted to your country)
also to unroot just flash with oding (stock firmware) and wipe data/factory reset and done,
threads are everywhere in general just look around

Since this topic is started might aswell use it instead of making a new one...so my question is:
From what I've read, in order to install CM7.2 on a Galaxy S2, you also need to install a custom kernel...so if I did all that, and want revert back to my original ROM and kernel, I just flash a stock ROM from Sammobile? Or the Kernel will remain the custom one (if so, how do I change it back to the stock one)?

Nope your kernel won't be left until you flash a Rom which has no kernel, but all Samsung roms out there have kernels inside the flashable tar or zip, you ain't smart if you don't provide a kernel which is made specially for the Rom

(1) read guides & stickes
(2) better flash Philz recovery, not sure if CWM is alread updated at all for SDS fix, Philz surely is
(3) Use the tool of your choice (Odin, Mobile Odin, Recovery) to flash the appropriate rom
Hi everybody! I've got an S3 NoBrand rooted, mounting PAC rom with kernel stock (tryed also googy's kernel) and stock modem.
After installing the first coocked rom 1 month ago (the CM10.2) I found a "secondary" problem to which I have never given much importance but now I would like to solve
From the first boot with the new rom the phone marks me as there is no signal. In fact, although there is network and you connect to the Internet without any problems, the strenght signal icon remains "empty" (see picture to understand better).
[Can't post image because of limited powers of new users]
I have found out that did not depend on Cyano as it lasted one day before I've changed it with the PAC but this issue has remained unresolved ..
I have already tried full wipes data,cache, devilk and cleaning then changing the kernel!
Sorry if I used a bad English but I've already asked on the Italian forum but unfortunately without success!
I'm counting on you!!
THANKS! :good:
(sorry made a wrong post and can't delete it =S )
UP!!! HELP PLS :crying::crying::crying:
Help please!!

Anyone knows why is giving me such a problem with the other ROMs?
Can't I do anything about it?
