Hi Guys.
I had my galaxy s2 replaced about 6 months ago after it got stolen.
I had 3 replacements until i got my last one which i still have.
The details:
Network: Three UK
Originally received the phone on: 2.3.6 XWKK2
At the time i tried to upgrade the firmware to ICS, but it wouldn't let me saying none was available either over air or through Keis.
So i took to the forums, and found that the firmware for this version was listed as Opus Australia.
Eventually i found some fware that worked: I9100XWLP7 Baseband Version:I9100XXLPS. Android 4.0.3
I have recently been having a few problems with my phone:
1. It crashes sometimes when i try to type a message: Unfortunately, MAPServiceSamsung has stopped,
2. When i try turn the wireless on sometimes it doesn't come on, the screen doesn't come on again and needs restarting
3. When i try turn wifi tethering on it needs a restart?
So, i was initially thinking of a version of ROM that was generic UK 4.0.3 , so that i can naturally upgrade to 4.1.2 when it finally gets to the UK.
Then i found 4.0.4 which i discounted because of a thread that said it could brick the phone if i used the wrong kernell (i am no techy).
So does anyone know of a good rom i can use that is generic UK either 4.0.3 or 4.0.4 that i can fix my phone with?
Also how do i find out what CSC my phone is on? so i can replace that too?
Thanks

Hi thanks for your response. I have looked on there, but cant seem to find the correct 4.0.3 version.
There's a thread in original android development with many stock ROMs.
The OP is from the supernexus dev.
You can find it easily by looking at his threads.

Yep, they are still there.
I installed new one by calling the helpline. they told me to restart my phone afterwards. i did, but still cannot connect.
Is it possible that marketenabler app is causing the problem? i know that when you switch sim ids (from local to US etc) u cannot connect 3g.
but even if i try to connect with local sim id it does not connect
Man, just Google for your provider apn details for android. As far as I know 3g etc should work the same on all firmwares unless your phone is not the international version.
I have the i9100t which has a different modem. When I flash any rom I reflash just the modem and all is good again. But first make sure your apn is correct and you have selected it (should have the green dot beside it).

Hi all,
First time poster, long time follower!!
I'm hoping someone can help me here because i have a real headache with my galaxy s2. I live in Rep. of Ireland.
When i got it at Christmas everything was perfect. But two weeks later i suddenly lost my 3g. Phone works fine on 2g (except for the slow speed), but i contacted my carrier 3Ireland and they said everything is fine on their end. My APN is perfect, i've tried toggling airplane mode, entering codes, data package checks. You name it and i've tried it.
When i force my phone to select 3g it looses all signal and i have to restart my phone and quickly go back into settings to choose 2g or i will loose signal again.
This is the following on my phone.
Android version 2.3.5
Baseband version I9100XXKI4
Kernel Version [email protected] #2
Build number GINGERBREAD.XWKI8
I've being reading about modem/radios lately, is that just the baseband? Could that be my problem. I'm a noob at this kinda thing.I just want my 3g to come back.
All help is greatly appreciated. Look forward to hearing from you all.
Thanks.

sxi200 makes an excellent point. Make sure what your model is - GT-I9100, GT-I9100G, GT-I9100T - it WILL make a difference.

Because I've flashed an international firmware, when the phone boots up it shows i9100 and in settings / about phone it also shows i9100.
The only place it shows as an i9100T is on the sticker under the battery. So remove the battery and check just in case.
EDIT: you say you flashed an Indian firmware. Aren't Indian models the i9100G. Maybe you need to flash the international firmware if you indeed have an international model.

Well, i did go back and flash the jpkj2 2.3.5. and still no connection.
will try from an open place again later.
i have an issue with my internet connection too. i got an I9100(international version) and things were perfect till i switched to 4.0.3 and since then, my internet just refuses to connect although i have full signal strength and 3G or H displayed. but there is nothing going through.
it works again after i switch to airplane mode and back. i have no issues with wifi.
i have tried many modems and roms. i am currently using the KI4 rom and it still gives me issues.
please help.
update on situation
Hi guys,
just an update on my situation. Had the phone sent to Samsung twice for a check and bothe times it came back perfect with test sheets showing all was perfect. I decided to have another check done on the phone and it now says that the phone is blocked!! What the hell!. When i checked first weeks ago all was good and now it says it's blocked, but i'm getting 2g signal, surely i should be getting nothing if it's barred.
I have no idea who the origional service provider was of the phone, is there any way of finding out who the origional provider was or is there any way of removing this barring?
Thanks
Hi,
I'm desperately looking for the stock firmware that came with my phone that I got from Virgin UK back in Novemeber 2011 as I foolishly flashed the Non-UK ICS the other day without making a note of the revision I already had.Kies then didn't recognise my phone. I've installed a CPW (Carphone Warehouse) ROM for now as I know it supports the Virgin network but I know for a fact that wasn't the same one that was originally on the phone. As when it was connected to Kies, I specifically remember there was a lot of X's in the string displayed as well as an XEU at the end (I think). The CPW ROM string doesn't have either. Basically I believe I had some sort of unbranded UK firmware that was also supported by Kies for future downloads but when looking on FUS I can't find anything from the UK except branded fimware and the CPW one.
I've learnt my lesson but would really like my phone back to it's original state before the official UK ICS update becomes available on Monday. So if anybody currently has a unmodified Virgin Mobile from around that time could they please point me in the right direction in terms of the Gingerbread version revision number they currently have?
Thanks in advance guys. I'm new so please have a little patience.
You can use the PC version of Checkfus (search for it on here/Google) to determine what firmware came with your phone, then search for same on Samfirmware.com.
Thanks. But as I said, I've already tried searching on FUS. And can't seem to find any of the ones I'm looking for. Also all the Intratech links on the sister thread don't seem to be working anymore. Almost as if the site Multiupload.com has been shut down?
I'm ideally looking for firmwares such as these:
PDA: I9100XWKF3,
PHONE: I9100XXKE7,
CSC: I9100XEUKD1
PDA: I9100XWKI4
PHONE: I9100XXKI1
CSC: I9100XEUKH2
Why these? Because I now know these are what come with Virgin UK contracted phones from around the same time. I finally only found this out a few minutes ago via a Virgin Media forum and seeing what people where posting. And if I'm 100% honest, it's the bottom one that's looking the more "familiar" to me before I started messing with my phone.
Again, thatnks for any help offered. Much appreciated.
Re-read the last 7 words of my post Actually, read the whole thing again. Particular emphasis on the last 7 words.
A simple method would be to wait for Virgin to update the firmware and download via Checkfus .
I doubt if the ICS upgrade on Monday will be any roms bar stock .
In which case even with original firmware Kies has no update for you .

This is original virgin mobile information which i saved before messing around with ics roms. My galaxy S2 is only 3 months old from virgin here in he uk!
Hope It Helps!

Thanks MistahBungle. I have and niether of those packages are listed on the site. JJ yeah I've got the same feeling to be honest. It seems to be the generic European firmware that I had the same as Ezy's. I actuallyy think I've installed this a couple of times via FUS and Odin but always seem to get the "your device cannot update from Kies" message though. Strange as I never had it when it was originally installed. Just "this is the latest firmware". Chaotic! lol
Update: It's worked! I installed Ezy's XEU one last time. I forgot to do a cache wipe before and aftewards on previous tries. It's back to it's original state and no upgrade error message in Kies. Thanks again for helping me out guys.
So JJ, come Monday when UK ICS gets released you recommend not downloading it from anywhere and waiting about 6 months for Virgin to get there act together?

Personally i would not bother as long as i had a copy of old Virgin firmware in case of warranty . I would just install a stock UK firmware with CPW CSC if possible once UK ICS is released if i was of a mind to go down the ICS route .

Ok thanks. I'll bare that in mind as I don't intend to go through all of this ever again. :-\

Hi all, I'm new to posting here but a vet over at samdroid.
I've looked around quite a bit and my problem seems to be unique...annoyingly.
I got my S2 on contract from O2 about 4 days ago, instantly went home and found out I was eligible to upgrade to ICS officially via kies. I have been on kies and connected my phone every day since, and I keep getting told I have the latest version (2.3.5), even though I've seen countless threads/comments of people delighted about the fact they upgraded through kies!
I was thinking of trying odin (i was a pro at updating roms on my spica), but don't know if using an offical update through odin instead of kies would void my warranty etc. NOTE: I don't want to actually root my phone (yet)
I hope that all made sense and any help would be much appreciated
Thanks,
Oli

make sure you got i9100 not any other varient
does other O2 in your area got ICS via KIES
odin is fine and will not void warrenty aslong you dont root and flash back the ROM you have now. you have to find this ROM first if you want to go back.

also is there an official rom for my particular S2 that can be updated using odin? or even an unofficial one that wont void warranty?

This Thread has instructions and official ICS.
Plz note that this is official and will have TouchWiz and does look extremely similar to Gingerbread and without root and custom theme you will not get that ICS feel. You will however get most of the goodies that ICS has to offer.
I got my S2 on contract from O2 about 4 days ago, instantly went home and found out I was eligible to upgrade to ICS officially via kies.
Well that's not exactly true you upgrade if their is an upgrade for your exact phone .
Kies has firmware for GT-i9100KAO2U product code .
I have been on kies and connected my phone every day since, and I keep getting told I have the latest version (2.3.5), even though I've seen countless threads/comments of people delighted about the fact they upgraded through kies!
But not for your phones product code which obviously does not match the released O2 firmware .O2 may well and probably over twelve months had more than one phone for sale unless contract has different codes to PAYG .
Standard older O2 UK firmware for xxx Product codes is on Kies its also on this forum in a legitimate flash via Odin .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487
legitimate O2 firmware not stock Samsung tested and works on O2 .
Or you can go to Google find CHECKFUS and try to download from your codes .
jje
you still didnt confirm if you have i9100P which i think you have but i could'nt find the Stock ROM your running now, so you can go back to it later if required.
if you have i9100P this thread has good news for you though the actuall thread is stupid and useless...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24030713
i think what happened to u is you got the model which is i9100P not the usuall i9100, thus all on normal model are on ICS and you still on GB. you can wait for it to come or use the i9100 ROM's but please search if that is actually possible.

finally, if i update like this, will i be able to update officially through kies when the update is finally released for me?
no im not covering my self...... i tell you in points....
1: you got I9100P on O2 for which i cant find a firmware for.
2: because you cant go back to your old firmware which is O2 you will get into warrenty problems

here are your options if you still want to continue.
1: you can flash stock firmware for i9100.
2: you can flash custom firmware
3: you can flash O2 branded firmware for i9100.
but in all cases NFC wont work by default.
plus now you cant go back to O2 i9100P firmware as it cannot be found anywhere... atleast by me.

Many months ago I rooted my Galaxy, mostly for something to do, but I stupidly didn't take down any details on what baseband or kernel the phone was running initially. When the leaked versions of ICS came out I upgraded to them, hopping to the latest one as it came out.
Now that the official T-Mobile release is out I decided that it was time to change to it, to make my phone "legit" again, however this doesn't seem to be the case as in Kies I get the tell tale "Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies".
In the "About Phone" I have...
Baseband Version - I9100BVLPB
Kernel Version - 3.0.15-I9100BVLPB-CL310231 [email protected] #3
Through *#1234# I have...
PDA : I9100BVLPB
CSC : I9100TMULPC
Phone:I9100BVLPB
Is there any way for me to find out what firmware should be on my phone? I've got a sneaking suspicion that my original firmware etc may have been unbranded rather than T-Mobile. I don't remember having any "Web & walk" icon or any T-Mobile logos etc.
If I just install the stock unbranded ICS firmware via Odin does that automatically change the baseband & kernel at the same time?
Thanks for any info
Try CheckFUS.
Thanks, I gave that app a go but it wouldn't update the phone types for some reason, it would just hang while updating.
I've managed to sort it out though, turns out that I was given an unbranded phone. The stock unbranded ICS firmware allows connection with Kies. The one downfall is that it would keep crashing after updating, I had to do a format to get it to work properly.

Hey all..
I had a weird thing happen to me today, my s3 GT-i9300 wont register the sim at all it all started when I flashed 4.3 from 4.0 today I've tried everything possible to get the sim to register. In all honesty, I've become discouraged and would be happy to just get back to stock rom... at least the network was working. lol
Originally I bought this s3 in HONG KONG, the baseband version that I flashed 4.3 is from Kazakhstan.. So I went over to http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9300 and found that TGY (Hong Kong) has 3 firmwares: I9300ZSUBNB1- 4.3- 26.02.2014 and I9300ZSEMK3- 4.1.2- 06.11.2013 and I9300ZSEMC1- 4.1.2- 11.03.2013
Question: Which one do I use? and what would be the steps in fixing this problem?
Heres my info:
IMEIs match on BOTH in status of phone and on the back of the phone
Im currently on 4.3 Android Version
Current Baseband version: I9300xxugna8 [Kazakhstan]
Cell phone carrier: Mobilicity (Which is owned by Rogers)
Thanks for all the patience and help in advance.
Cheers.
Nevermind gents, found the solution. ANDDDDDDD the best part is.. I can stick with the 4.3... [sarcastic YAY]
Solution thanks to the folks at AndroidVeterans
Maybe the ROM you used is not Stable 100% that's why u faced that problem. So the solution is to back to your stock ROM with the official baseband that it was installed before you upgrade. in my opinion if you flashed a stock ROM with the wrong baseband can make your device unsupportable to the network (even you flashed many ROMs the problem will still exists)

Hey all..
I had a weird thing happen to me today, my s3 GT-i9300 wont register the sim at all it all started when I flashed 4.3 from 4.0 today I've tried everything possible to get the sim to register. In all honesty, I've become discouraged and would be happy to just get back to stock rom... at least the network was working. lol

Don't panic bro ,international S3 had this problem on updating manually , not for custom roms only for stock 4.3
The only solution is z3x box , it can be only done using that box :good:
You have to only repair network from it
