First of all: it's 'rooted', not 'rotted'
Some roms come with a new modem, so if you want to change it, you can flash it through Recovery. Some others don't, but you can check it of course in Settings -> About phone.
About your request for a JB rom: even if you're from NZ, you still have to try them for yourself to see which rom perfectly matches your preferences.

Hey guys,
I'm from Israel and I've decided to ditch my current mobile carrier (Orange/Partner).
I usually prefer to stick to the official stock ROM so, naturally, I plan to flash my GT-I9100 device with the ROM of my soon-to-be carrier (HOT Mobile).
Thing is... The official ROM bears the "GT-I9100T" model and I'm not sure if it will work or it might brick my phone.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot!

Thanks for replying.
My phone is not locked by my carrier. I purchased it from a private store. It simply has the official carrier ROM installed.
I plan to replace my carrier and install the new carrier's official ROM.
The only problem is that this ROM is intended for the I9100T, while I have the I9100.
I'm just wondering if anything can go wrong while flashing?

There is a slight difference between the 9100 and 9100T. Not in hardware, but software. The specific T modems are generally more tuned to the 850MHz band than others due to different SAR levels.The firmware for i9100T are not compatible with i9100 .

Hi, I have given my wife my old white S2 after deciding to get a black one for myself (from Amazon UK). I had managed to root it and put on an aokp 4.2.2 rom (aokp_i9100_jb-mr1_build6 )which works great although I can't remember which site I used for the instructions. So I get my new black one and start thinking about doing the same...
I thought it would be a good idea to update it to latest stock version to start with but OTA update says my phone is up to date.
KIES finds new firmware but it hangs at 100% complete and goes nowhere.
Here are some numbers:-
Version 4.0.4
Baseband Version i900 BULP8
Build No. IMM76D.BULPG
This BULP8 version looks a bit odd.
I would appreciate some advice on how to proceed...is this a "funny" version?
Here's hoping, alfie

To Root you device, flash one of these Custom Kernels: CF-Root (the best) - PhilZ - SpeedMod
To install AOKP 4.2.2 ROM: Flash Omega v12 or Android Open Kang Project or JellyBAM
To install AOSP 4.2.2 ROM: Flash CyanogenMod 10.1
And don't forget to hit the thanks button
Also....while you're running 4.0.4, DO NOT wipe data, cache or dalvik....
Search "emmc brickbug" for why....
Sent from my Rooted, De bloated Stock JB powered S2 via PhilZ kernel and Tapatalk 2....
Yeah, you csn run gotbrick bug from playstore to check your chip. If it's sane you're good, if it's not I advice you to flash a safe kernel (siyah v5).
And then you'll be good to go for flashing CM and s#!t.
Also, stick to xda, not other sites.

At times even the so called 'Sane' becomes 'Insane', so flash a brick bug free kernel like 'Siyah v5.0.1" from 'ODIN' to ensure safety on recovery wipes
I'm feeling a bit confused and dim...I've read so many threads...
I found these Philz files
PhilZ-cwm6-BULPG-ATL-3.99-signed.zip
PhilZ-cwm6-BULPG-ATL-3.99.tar.md5
The BULPG seems to match my phone - but which one do I use?
Or, if I going to use siyah I need more detailed instructions... argrrh..please help
First is for recovery second for odin

May be its time for u to do some Reading in the first place ( since ur confused for now to choose a kernel properly to flash )
Head to the link below and start reading the same for now

Good luck !
hmm reading I've done, it's understanding that is the problem.
I thought I'd managed it, I had it rooted with the Philz file and tried installing the aokp 4.2.2 rom but now it won't boot at all... I fear I've done something terrible.
I can boot to the "Philz Touch 3" recovery screen.
EDIT : Update Re-installed the ROM and now I'm up and running thanks everyone, alfie

Yeah you can until you can access ODIN/Download mode, just flash the ROM from there and it will be fine.
If you could root your phone I'll suggest you to try out neatrom as its very fast and smooth, I had GB but I never got experience like this ever before. :thumbup:

No no Sir I din't mean that ICS/Jelly Bean are not user friendly... They are very useful and user friendly but I comfort very much in Gingerbread. Last U used Galaxy R gingerbread os and now I used SGS2 Jelly Bean but I face some minor issue, 1) like phone does not lock power key or automatic option if enable, I mean to say that my phone does not lock, 2) One folder in SDcard name Ringtone & alomost 30 ringtone are their but when I play all of this or play one by one then its play but like name is another and play another ringtone and same thing happended when I go settings and selecting ringtone but this problem is only in this folder but oher folder are fine, name given another and play another and I don't like file manager cause its always enable file selected mode not like gingerbread,when U need then its show selected one not always but its not a big deal or prob but my main 2 problem is locking or display 1 name or play 1 file.
Thanks hope U can understand...

Really sorry for that won't happened again that was urgent that's why I did.
Hi I'm trying to look for the stock 4.1.2 kernel for the international version GT9300. I have the original ROM but decided to change the kernel to Yank555 but since i would like to update to 4.2 would like to do it through the samsung Kies (if you have better suggestions, they are welcome, since i dont want all the samsung crap which took very long to get rid off) Otherwise I will have to jump again in the world of looking for a ROM
on a side note, anyone knows which kernel would be best for the MIUI rom? i tried it last year but i had lags and some things didnt work.
Thank you!
