That is a very good ROM you've chosen. Have you got root? If not search around the Q & A there's loads of guides for it. Also you're on v 4.0.4 which has the emmc brick bug so flash a siyah or dorimanx kernel asap

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?

Yes. That number is simply the build number of the rom.

Model: GT-I9100
Kernel: 3.0.15-I9100XWLP7-CL340913
Android Version: 4.0.3
Build Number: IML74K.XWLP7
This is my phone information and I'm trying to root with the latest odin3 and s2root and using the following kernels
Kernel_I9100XWLP7_INSECURE and Kernel_I9100XWLP7
I can install the insecure kernel ok and phone reboots fine. When I run s2root it tells me I'm not connected with a Samsung device. Any suggestions?

Do I have to flash the complete firmware (the same as I already have installed) or can I just flash with the correct, rooted, kernel?

I buyed used i9100 3-4 days ago, he's old 20 days and everything is working, phone is rooted too, i think with CF-root method, before that i was reading a lot about s2, and android, i have good knowelage in android and phones but much more safer is to consult with other peoples unless i'm not 100% shure about what i'm doing, so my question is:
i want to do factory reset so i can customize phone how i want and delete all pics, musics ... i should go to Settings > Back up and reset > Factory data reset, it's easy but i have question: i know for emmc bug, but i'm not 100% shure what he's doing, i know he is on stock 4.0.4 kernels, i have Model: i9100, Android version: 4.0.3, Baseband version: 3.0.15-I9100XWLP7-CL340913 [email protected] #3, Build number: IML74K.XWLP7, is safe to do factory reset ? and do i have emmc bug with that kernel and stock 4.0.3 rom ? Thanks and sorry if my english is wrong

If you're on 4.0.3, you dont have the emmc bug. but you can always download the got brickbug app from the playstore and check, just to make sure.

I don't get that, my old s2 is on ics rooted with c.f. root. I've checked & the brickbug app says I have the bad chip but you say 4.0.3 is safe???

To be 100% safe, first flash a custom kernel like siyah via Odin. Then you can factory reset your phone without worrying.

From what I'm given to understand the app just checks the firmware and compares it to a known list of 'bad' chips.
If you're on gingerbread you surely have nothing to worry about.
However if you plan on rooting your phone don't directly flash siyah. There are guides in the general section. Look through those.

My phone is already rooted and the thread in post 5 is talking about 4.0.4 firmwares. isnt there anyway to solve this emmc bug problem?
brickbug ONLY applies when wiping data on STOCK 4.0.4 kernel... If you are on gingerbread or ics 4.0.3, you wont be affected.

I want to flash siyah kernel, what is a better way, to flash it via odin or to install it via recovery?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Flashing via recovery won't increase custom binary counter.
I dont care for that because my flash counter is already increased so i have yellow triangle but im ok with that, if i flash siyah v4.1.5 can i back to samsung stock kernel and how?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Sure, by flashing stock firmware via Odin.
i am beginer on samsung galaxy s2 (4.0.4) and i want to root it, can you please help me.

There's lots of guides on rooting you should always search first.
One thing: downgrade to 4.0.3 before doing anything.

Thank your for your reply.
yes i found a lot off guides for different version for android that's why i am confused.
1. can you please suggest me a detailled one for my version:
GT-I9100
4.0.4
I9100XXlQ6
3.0.15-1060868
[email protected]#3
IMM76D.JPLPJ
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.

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!

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:

Or you can just use a recovery to flash another kernel/rom.
