Well your phone is i9100g... You sure you flashed ROM of i9100g and not of galaxy s2 i9100...coz many people make that mistake..
Post this in the i9100g...idk how much we can help you with this..
Anyways, try factory resetting the phone...if no luck take it to Samsung customer care...it can be a hardware problem. ..
And ya, which ROM are you flashing? The official stock ROM or custom ROM?
Custom ROM do have many bugs and vary from phone to phone. .. Try going to stick for one and check if problem is still there. .
Press thanx if I helped...

cannot post on i9100g dev becoz my post still under 10...
im sure i flash the right rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679636
ya..done factory reset but still got the problem...
like i said before..the touchscreen work fine if i plugin charger or connect usb to pc/laptop...
i dont think it becoz hardware problem since it work perfect on stock GB, stock ICS, aokp, CM and 4-5 other custom ROM...
can it becoz of battery? i use 1650mah...i have try 1500mah and touch screen getting more worst...
i still cant find any solution for my phone..
already try many method like
- using re-partion on odin with pit file
- format data, system, cache, emmc
- wipe data/factory reset/dalvic cache
- flash using odin/cwm
- root/unroot
after done all above..touch screen laggy and still make dash line on drawing...
after my last post...i have try most rom on Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development Section and my touchscreen on all rom are working perfect except official stock JB or custom rom base on stock JB...
forgot to mention that the day on my 1st time installing stock JB i accidently flash Galaxy tab 2 p3100 firmware and got softbrick
but successfuly unbrick then done flashing stock JB...dunno if this incident can damage my phone...
or is other way to make FULL FORMAT internal SD? to make sure the file that i accidently flash completely remove...

you could try Blazing Kernel, it can be flashed via stock recovery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2113545.
Or you could also flash original GB and upgrade to JB either through OTA or KIES.

I have tried that two methods, Flashing GB (everything works great), flashing ICS (everything works great too), and then JB trough OTA and the touch screen doesnt work properly. I have tried the last Blazing Kernel too without success.

We have the same problem dude, touch screen not working properly after stock jb (xef) flash but working flawlessly when phone is plugged. I can't have a custom rom above 4.2.1, else I have the problem. Now I'm on CM10.1 4.2.1 and can't leave it because of this, the official rom I want is the official.
Did you got the screen of your phone replaced ? Because mine was and I was wondering if it was that.

Not sure if it was replaced because I bought it used on ebay.
But are you using CM10.1 4.2.1 without touch screen problems? Can you tell me the date of the release so I can try to flash my phone with that ROM?

I've spent the last 2 days trying to fix my mistake. I have the GS2 ATT version, and I didn't realise there was a difference between that and the GTI9100 S2.
I wanted to give some tips I learned on how to recover your phone if you make this mistake.
First, here are some posts you'll want to look at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432 - Stock firwmware
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285823 - Clockworkmod for the ATT
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286192 - Cyanogenmod for our phones.
Using Odin and the stock firmware, you can recover your phone to a 95% working state. Once I got my stock firmware on there, I found that while making calls my phone made no sound, and the mic didn't work. The mic did work when I wasn't making calls though.
I reflashed the modem.bin file found on the stock firmware, not sure if its required but that is what I did first. Then, I unpacked the rooted stock firmware, and flashed JUST THE zImage file. After doing this, I rebooted, and my calls were working again.
After that, I installed the correct version of Clockworkmod, and then CM7 nightly. Now everything seems to be running great on my phone.
Hope this helps someone out there,

I flashed a KE7 I9100 build to my I777 and saw no ill effects other than incorrect capacitive button mapping. Which build did you flash? Did you make sure to wipe data factory reset afterwards.
So you are saying that you wre able to flash Euro ROMS and your phone booted just fine? Mine didnt boot at all. Did you flash the KERNEL for ATT on top of it ?

The simple thing would be to change out the sec_touchkey.kl with rootexplorer and take the sec_touchkey from system/usr/keylayout should fix the i9100 rom to work with the i777. Seeing as how this worked for the Captivate *i897* for jvr, jvs, and jvt darkyrom releases and I would assume that it would work.

Personally I would think that you had a bad flash? Did you flash through Odin or CWM? From what I have been reading the gb bootloaders between the i777 and i9100 are different and I can see if you used a custom i9100 rom flashing via cwm could cause that. Since I am not too sure on the sgs2 if the differences between the euro models versus the carrier locked, the Kernel will not fix the button mapping, I learned this with the captivate when I switched over to using DarkyRom jvr and jvs builds since they were the most stable of GB for the i897 captivate. Plus if you are going to run a i9100 rom, I am sure the modem will not work with the att kernel. Especially if the situation with the cappy is any indication that att kernel needs att modem and i9000 kernel needs i9000 modem. I will be able to know more as soon as I get my i777 tomorrow.
HTH,

Some people need to wipe or also flash the modem for 100%.
Also, people who managed to flash a bootloader without hardbricking can't get back to stock with any confirmed method.
I have posted bootloader dumps, but no one has flashed them and I'm not messing with trying to flash them. They are dumps from my device and that is the ONLY guarantee I provide for them.

Hey fellas, i'm looking to send my phone to Samsung for servicing, but obviously i cant let them see that i'm running ICS because it isnt out in Singapore yet.
so i've download DXLP7 in hope that i could flash my country's firmware before returning my phone.
Download both the kernel and the 7zip file that is 310mb in size.
opened the massive file to only find one tar file, so if i flash that via odin, my phone will completely return to stock?
as in a condition that the service centre wont suspect?
what about the kernel that i downloaded, do i have to flash that as well?
Much appreciate some help.

Shawn.

Look at the battery status wich app is draining your battery.
Yesterday i didnt use my phone for 2 hours, before my battery was around 50% but after the 2 hour my battery was only 18%. I looked at my battery report/status and it said:
Xda 29
Screen 27
And some things like
Bla bla 7
Bla bla 4
...
Mostly my screen haves around 60% so, now xda is the same value but the screen didnt use more or less energy so.........
Thanks to the xda app my battery drained 2x so hard.
I gues (how do you spell that?) you also use the xda app and it alsobis your problem.

Hello All,
I am a noob.
So I am looking into going back to GB 2.3.5
I have flashed stock ICS Netherlands XWLP7 and I have downloaded the firmware of my country.
Which is: GT-I9100_EGY_I9100JPKJ2_I9100OJPKJ1_I9100XXKI4.tar.md5
And kernal: Kernel_I9100JPKJ2.tar.md5
I have a question, it has been explained to me that I need to flash these files using odin+flashing a PIT file and using re-partition.
I could not find a PIT file? where do I get it from to go along with my firmware?
And, do I need to flash a Modem?
Is it possible for the kind soul thats going to answer my questions to put it in 1,2, 3 steps so I can understand what do to first?
I.E
1- Flash kernal
2- Flash firmware
or what?
Thanks a lot!
@ Sn3aks:
What is the reason you are downgrading to GB?
What is the condtion of your phone now?
Who advised you to use pit file?
---------- Post added at 10:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 AM ----------
the firmware package you have mentioned already contains a kernel, no need of flashing kernel seperately..that is uploaded in the thread for future use when you needed to flash after rooting.
Thanks for your reply.
I am downgrading cause GB is more stable than ICS. Music player lags with some songs
Random crashes
I can not modify the in-call headset/handset volume from the servicemode. If you click Audio it doesnt come up with anything. And the in-call voice through earphones is really low
And other stuff that annoyed me and I couldnt remember.
The noticeable improvement in ICS is battery life and performance is fast
What is the condtion of your phone now?
My phone is ok, working fine, making calls, going over the internet normaly, IMEI is valid. Not rooted. Binary count = NO
Faryaab advised me to use a PIT file. I checked the guide in your signature and I read that anyone who asks about PIT file is a moron. Is this my case?
I dont think PIT file is required in your case,
You can try without using PIT first.
GT-I9100_EGY_I9100JPKJ2_I9100OJPKJ1_I9100XXKI4.tar.md 5
select above file from PDA of ODIN.
Do a factory reset before flashing...
First of all i apologize if i don't post this thread in the right place and if there's already a thread about this but i looked a lot and found nothing.
My problem is that i cant make my phone boot in stock rom ics.
I tried with lots of stock roms, not just from my country, but also from anothers, but i can use JB rom (from Poland right now, in omega rom) without any problem.
The phone is stuck at bootloader, and if i wipe data/factory reset, it get's stuck in the language selection screen and if i touch it, anything happens.
Also i tried to flash roms like cyanogenmod and aosp rom and they just stay on bootloader and nothings happen if i wipe everything.
I appreciate if someone helps me and sorry for my bad english.

I've always used custom roms on my galaxy. I was even using in dual-boot, a Jelly Bean Revolt and other stock. I was testing a new stock, and flashed it with Odin Mobile. I ended up losing custom. Since then, I can no longer flashing custom roms, even having problems flashing a new kernel. I use the CWM, do the wipes and flash the* rom, but after the reboot, it starts a boot loop with the galaxy s2 logo. The phone is inoperable. At least the download mode works, and I ended up going back to stock a few times. I even tried and flash another custom roms, but the same problem happens.

I even used the "emmc brick check", and it shows "YES. Insane chip".
I flashed now a 2.3.6 stock rom. But i haven't tried to flash another custom rom yet.
Should i proceed as you say???
And sorry for my noobness, but what is a 3 parted stock rom?

it contains a .pit file for re-partition and 2 other files,but u should be carefull in using the .pit file though, since it could potentially hardbrick ur device ma8
instead try updating ur device from GB 2.3.6 to a stock v4.0.3(do not flash any 4.0.4 ICS firmware) ICS firmware either thro 'KIES' or 'ODIN', then root ur phone and try installing a custom ICS rom of ur choice and see

I'll try what you're saying.
I'm updating to a 4.0.3 through odin. After root, can i install directly a Jelly bean rom?

I've already updated to 4.0.3
If i'm flashing Jelly Bam Rom for an example, do i need to install these kernel before, since the rom already has it in the AROMA installer???
And should do the wipes before it/??
Thanks!

Thanks.
It only worked with with previous instalation of dorinmax kernel. So i had to use Revolt Jelly Bean Rom.
When i tried to flash Jelly Bam Rom, got into galaxy s2 loop, after reboot.
At least, i've got one custom rom.
Now it's so much more difficult to install a rom on my phone. Only because i used that 4.0.4.
There's no way back, right?
My warranty ends in November 30th.
:/

That's why I said to completely go back on a stock firmware with Odin.
But 3 parted (and for sure with .pit-file then, forgot to say this) and check repartition.
But u have to choose... A phone which turns screen on an just looping or a chance from 80% to 20% for getting phone working again or bricking it.
I personally hadn't any prob til now, but only went back 4-5 times ins 2-3 years (also did the same with SGS before SGSII)
So u got my answer u have to choose.
Anyway u can send it back because warranty and if they fix it, it's fine... If not u can try it by urself anyway
CHEERS
Send from my SGSII-i9100, running RootBox nightly with Dorimanx Kernel.
My phone was rooted (very recently) and I reset the counter to 0; all was working fine - stock firmware Jelly Bean from ICS. I do not use custom firmware.
I reset my phone and since then my phone is constantly going through boot loop. I re-flashed a few times with success in odin the stock firmware however even after success the phone remains in boot loop. I cannot get access to the recovery console but the phone does enter download mode. As an idiot I re-flashed the root kernel again since flashing the firmware would have wiped the root (?) to see if I could now access the recovery console - made no difference but this has triggered the counter to 1. I have Googled (including this site) for a resolution to this problem and the only option I seem to have is to flash PIT file:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1760107
and
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667886
I have the international version (factory unlocked XEU S2 16GB) and and I'm not sure which PIT file to use.
I am reluctant to try this method in case I damage the phone.
I am new to all this and can somebody who is knowledgeable advise me what to do next. I would be most grateful.

Thank you for your reply. This is what I have flashed. First JB then ICS. Stock firmware from this site. The boot screen did change however from JB to ICS when I falshed back from JB to ICS but to no avail; still boot loop.

Thank you once again for your reply. I am sorry for the misunderstanding, as mentioned before I am new to this. Thank you for your patience but would it matter what stock kernel I use or can I use any stock Samsung kernel with XEU. The repair center has my phone at present and they are looking to charge me saying I rooted. Counter was 0 (even fault already occurred by this time) but when I flashed Siyah kernel successfully still no recovery console. Re flashed firmware to stock a few times (always at stock) but counter as stated before went to 1 - couldn't get rid of this. Due to this they want to charge! Many thanks

Tell em to f*ck off, get the device back, you'll get it working, and not via pit file.

It's just a bootloop, you can nuke it up and all.
I'd advice against any forum aside from xda tho, just report here and we'll get you up & runnin' in no time.

Many thanks again. I'll keep you guys updated!
Got my phone back. After much disputing the phone has been repaired by the service center. I had to pay them but the retailer paid me for the repair - tried to cancel the repair but it was too late so I could go about fixing it myself. They have left the counter at 1. I have now got rid of this (rooted (siyah) - triangle away - re flashed back to stock ICS 4.0.4). All worked well.
However I am having difficulty finding the stock kernel for the handset just in case the above happens again when I upgrade to JB again. It has been a great (although stressful) learning curve and I am learning an enormous lot from this site amongst others. Seem to have got the bug for this...no programming experience though!!!
Details on the phone are:
Kernel Version 3.0.15 -I9100XWLPT-CL941023
Hence kernel XWLPT, so the question is, which stock kernel am I to download? Looked in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
but cannot find it.
Many thanks

You got lucky there, they must have missed the binary count.
Here's what you need:
Mobile Odin Pro:
- Lets you go back and forth with stock ROMs.
- Roots the ROM while it flashes it (optional)
- Flashes with own kernel (GB based) so no brick bug danger.
- Easy, fast and reliable.
- 5 bucks (well spent)
LSJ:
This is JB leak, it's great ROM to get you out of trouble, no bootloops and stuff, and works as a step stone for official JB.
Flash Code, Phone & CSC only.
I9100 ROMs:
Bunch of 4.0.3, 4.0.4 & 4.1.2 ROMs.
Online Android Backup.:
Awesome tool to back your current ROM for a rainy day.
No, no. They spotted the counter at 1. Retailer refunded; disputed root. Service center were b*****ds. Will try your method in future, but is there a stock kernel for XWLPT, or which one is the closest? Thanks for your help so far!
UPDATE:
Found it thank you. Viewed that page (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487) before bust missed the kernel bit below!!!!
