Today i`ve got a new galaxy s2 , white one now heh , after hardbricking the last one , one week ago...aaand ofc i cant help myself but to try and root it again. Now , i have found this site http://www.unlockroot.com/unlockroot.html and downloaded that program and everything .. the question is , is this safe to use ? No hardbrick on it ? What do you guys think ?
Ooor can someone show me a 100% safe way to do it ? I dont wanna kill another phone lol and now im kinda scared to just try anything i find D:
There are hundreds of threads about rooting your phone on xda, so why are you posting about using another method on a different site.
Maybe you could send a PM to theathiest and ask him to flash that on his phone to find out if it works/is safe. ........LOL
Maybe because i have ****ed up an sg2 before trying to install something from this site and now i want it to be 100% safe ? Anywayz , apparently im on the 4.0.3 version and that seems to be hardbrick free right ? If thats the case , that means i can root the phone using any method ?
Mate just flash syiah 4.0+ or dorimanx 5.92 via Odin and u get root or just update to jb via kies or download and flash via Odin then root u got few kernels for jb with root and jb is brick bug free kernels too good luck

Don't repeat your mistakes again - learn to understand what you're doing before doing anything risky on you new phone. No one can prevent you from bricking it, only you can, by knowing what you're doing.

That's way before u do anything learn how to do u know that that's best way u know since first day I got my s2 I root and went custom and from that day I read to learn before I do that's best way to avoid problems

Just use a "safe" Kernel and everthings okay. But check if the Kernel is the right one for your Firmware Version...
Aight , thanks for the feedback guys , i`ll think about rooting it again , keeping in mind that the official 4.1.2 its gonna come soon and it will pawn , so i guess i wont need root and a custom rom ... maybe only for deleting those god damn stock apps.
It is almost impossible to brick your phone if you stay away from .pit files and ticking re-partition in odin.

One last question guys , im from Romania , if i use lets say , the Russian Jellybeam version will it really matter ? I mean will it be any difference between the Russian one and actually waiting for the update in my country ?
it'll work just fine, it's not about the firmware, it's about modems.
You got people from brazil flashing russian jelly bean and they do just fine.

How about that you read the sticky threads, references in there and stop asking questions that have been answered about zillion times? This board has about half million of active users, if everyone starts posting similar junk, we are seriously doomed.

Warranty is always void, if u use custom rom,root, recovery etc.
I am using the same Gingerbread and my sim/data working fine.

Go ask your lawyer. Flashing an official FW does not affect warranty in countries with sane legal system. Nor does flashing whatever piece of junk void your warranty for HW defects (again, in countries with sane legal system.)
Just wait till monday! . Mik is coming with a new release today or tomorrow. It's going to reveal some very good things. Also Mik will hopefully release two patches to resolve baseband issues in a few days. That will nullify the need to flash baseband if users don't want to flash baseband.
If you can't wait this much, flash official gb via kdz or lgmdp while following the instructions carefully.
Rooting, flashing voids your warranty. One should be very careful while reading instructions. If one follows instructions carefully, chances of brick are less than 1%.
If you are plain unlucky and brick your device somehow, you may go to service center and act as a noob and just tell them you tried to upgrade from lg pc suite and something wrong happened. Here there is 90% chance that you will get a replacement.
Keeping all these things in mind, you can take a decision.

Rude? WTH. You are asking in the wrong place. Again - you need to ask someone who is familiar with your local legal system to answer questions about warranty. Not here. N.B. that manufactures' claims about voiding warranty are often illegal and have no effect in reality if people are really willing to assert their rights.

He is not rude in any way but i believe i can use some other words to explain you. Ans beauty is he has explained you quite well though it different manner.
Flashing any ROM and rooting can affect your warranty, but those are country specified. Like in India we can't have warranty after rooting(Lg people are rally don't know what is rooting and all they just keep replacing hardware and some time whole device) but doktornotor said they have at least hardware warranty even after flashing custom ROM.
If you care so much about the warranty, you should not have joined the xda community in first place. Stuck with the old official ROM with no root and enjoy the laggy, less performance and less battery.
If you need best ROM, best performance and no lags- Stop worrying about the warranty.

I have been using all day to try to update my sgs2.
I unrooted the device and uploaded a stock firmware to the phone, and thought kies would help me now..
but kies says that this device does not support updating with kies ???
I am currently running :
PDA:I9100XWKF3
PHONE:I9100XXKE7
CSC:I9100XEUKD1
2.3.3 android.
I would like to go for 2.3.5 or newer .. but i dont know what file to use... as im not sure what is right for me.
Im located in denmark/Europe..
Dont mean to be rude, but Come on man... go to development thread and read a bit first. This way you would know how to update/fix ur device if sth goes wrong and not wait for help from anyone
It took me 15 min to read then flash new room, root it and feel great that i have learned something

I couldnt agree more...
But i have been reading all day long, and im not sure if its ok to flash the I9100XXKI3 file into the phone ....
i dont see anywhere it says how to determine what file is safe for the ohone going from one firmware to a newer version..
i KNOW that my firmware is XWKF3 ... but the new... must it just be named something hihger like KI3 ? (i is higher than f) ..
Im so tired of spending all day with this ... i have earlier made LOTS of Wii softmods, xbox mods, etz, so thats why its so confusing spending all this time on this..
please just help me get the newest dk / european file for my phone, mr teacher
Once again all is safe if you read and follow the deatails.

What is the brick bug??
According to my readings, this is related to ICS leaks flashing for sgs2 and galaxy note on roms and based kernels...and u can hardbrick ur phone when u do wipes / resets erasing partitions on the emmc.. kind of..
Masters like Chainfire and many others (my bad i forgot their names but they know who they are).. have provided explanations and links to this info. 1+ to KennyLegend for posting the link I read in the other thread.
So, after checking my s2 with Chainfire's app. I got the damn 0x19 chip which means I have the bad one but reading and reading it seems that for kernels based on the 4update source its kinda safe... But as I am not a developer and just and user Im still confused a lil bit about this...
And I know there is info missing for the readers on this thread... Im sorry really .. Im still confused and Im opening this thread with the intention of understand better the issue, so that I beg to the real masters that please clear all our doubts..
I.e. : what are the safe kernels based on the safest update?
And are we safe running xxlpxxx stock rom??
What flashing junkies need to know??
Is it possible to brick our device now since this bug was found on may??
And many many more doubts that will come up...

you mean the one whereby when you are using a kernel with the brick bug in it and you clear data, cache, you will brick your phone in the process right?
Hi
I've got the same (maybe) Problem here
Also i have that
VYLOOM
Revision 0x19
eMMC Chip on my GT-I9100
I have the free German Version (Country Code DBT)
And currently using the Polish XXLPW ROM (Kies Release) flashed with Odin over the official XWLP7 also from Kies. Using Chainfires CF-Root for LPW.
Reading this thread in the Epic 4G Touch General Section
it seems that some of the Devs Kernel don't have the 'workaround' that samsung has in some of his kernels.
Maybe of my english or because i haven't the time to read all the 47 Page so far, i do not clearly understand if this bug is only happens if you use factory wipe from the CWM or could it also happens if you use the Option from the normal ROM Settings under ICS.
I will read on and seeking in other sites for more information.
regards
Christopher
We do not have to worry if we are using the international sgs2 (i9100). I think it was for the korean version of sgs2. There are people who hard bricked their device using a custom kernel where they wiped and the phone never came back (it's in the general section). It's really not the fault of the kernel developer but by samsung. So no need to worry guys.

Relax. There's nothing to worry about. If this happens to you (very unlikely), it will happen suddenly, and there will be nothing you can do to stop it happening. If the 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000001% chance of it happening bothers you that much & you want to be absolutely sure that it doesn't, leave your phone on stock & don't mess with it.
This is probably the least responsible piece of information/firmware/app I've seen released in the 8 mths I've been coming here :-|

check the attached images i m running 4.0.3 ics Aut Switzerland
tell me its brick bug i many tym wipe/ factory reset with cwm nothing happen but chainfire app say brick bug exist
The brick bug is only present in ICS 4.0.4 firmware with Samsung kernel (or stock based kernel such as CF-Root) and it's only an issue if you wipe using CWM.
If your phone is stock and you have stock recovery then you're fine. You can delete/wipe cache, factory reset as much as you like. No harm will be done.
In short: 4.0.4 firmware + CWM = Brick.
Unless you flash a 'safe' kernel such as Siyah or NEAK or Speed mod
Brick bug x19 vyloom on my sgs2
hi im new to this forum
i have vyloom x19 emmc bug on my sgs2 so just wanted to ask can i change the firmware to other region or neat firmware over that via odin is it possible?
So I'm about to root for the FIRST time ever.. and am scared as hell.. so I decided to try CF's Root method this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
but the kernel part has made me go all nervous.. my Kernel version is JPKH1 and to my senses I guess this is the correct kernel :
(CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KH1-v4.1-CWM4.zip) because I see there is a KH1 in there.. and only there.. so can a senior help me out here ^^"
Thank you so much for your help and time.
-Edit-
Rooted Successfully,
Used GS2 repair app to fix my EFS folder Successfully
I humbly thank this forum <3
Mmm from the information supplied I would say yes that's the right kernel. Are you on ics 4.0.4 or 4.0.3?

Yes because I thought it was better to stay on it because I've heard there is no flash support on ICS and number of bugs.. so I'm definitely am not going to upgrade soon..
The reason I'm rooting is to fix my EFS folder which got corrupted I have no idea how, I didn't update the phone or root, I just put it in flight mode and it never got back on again, what I've gathered so far is some stock app or app I downloaded must have corrupted it or its faulty by default what Odia told me, but unfortunately the service center here is not willing to fix my phone so I finally decided to do it on my own.. I just hope GSII repair works for me.. or I'll simply live with a generic number.. at least I'll have a working phone.. its been 4 months now NO PHONE and so much quick battery drain.
*teary eyes* Okay did everything and guess what guys I FIXED IT!!!! XD

do you still have warranty on your phone?
if it has, follow this guide so that you dont have to pay any fee
1. flash stock firmware and root it
2. after rebooted connect usb otg cable with usb mouse attach to it so you can navigate the screen on your phone.
3. install triangleaway and reset the binary counter on download mode.
4. after resetting the binary to no or 0, unroot your phone using supersu.apk and uninstall triangleaway
5. after unroot factory reset your phone.
6. you have to use again the usb otg to pass the welcome screen after factory reset
7. you are now ready go to the shop and claim warranty.

Ok i had this problem days ago, unfortunately after putting the wrong file for rooting, the touchscreen doesnt work at startup screen.. This is harfware problwm u have to change the lcd and difitizer... Hard to believe but its true after wrong rooting seen blue flicking, i think it damages the chips oh well it made my pocket burn replacing one lol.
I finally get back my charming s3 with the warranty claim! Tq very much chris.
Ironically,i ask my friend about my phone problem,he say that its not about the hardware damage,but software,specifically,kernel.he said that i can just flash stock firmware through kies (not odin) to get thing back normal again.i did not do this method coz i already got my repaired s3.. so anyone encounter this problem maybe should try the method,perhaps?

I finally get back my charming s3 with the warranty claim! Tq very much chris.
Ironically,i ask my friend about my phone problem,he say that its not about the hardware damage,but software,specifically,kernel.he said that i can just flash stock firmware through kies (not odin) to get thing back normal again.i did not do this method coz i already got my repaired s3.. so anyone encounter this problem maybe should try the method,perhaps?

yes try the kies method first before sending for repair.
but i dont think it will solve by kies update if you got the brick by flashing wrong cfautoroot.
maybe if you got the brick from flashing rom maybe it can be fix,

you dont have warranty on your phone? if you have, you dont have to pay for service repair for it in claiming warranty.
