Hi,
I bought a Samsung Galaxy S2 couple of years ago alone, without any operator.
It worked perfectly and I upgraded it number of times.
The penultimate time it was the 4.0.3
An hour ago, I did the migration to the 4.1.2 (I9100XWLS8_I9100FOPLS3_FOP) with Odin3-v1-1.85.
It worked perfectly and said the it was successful.
However, after booting, the Galaxy S2 asks for a code to unlock the network ("code de déverouillage réseau").
I typed-in the PUK code given by the operator, but the phone told me it's a wrong one.
I'm used to upgrading Samsung phones (S1, S2 and S3), but its ths first time I have this problem.
Can anybody helps me?
Thanks.
Android 4.1.2
I9100XXLS8
Kernel : 3.0.31-889555
Version number: JZO64.I9100XWLSD

Hi,
I read the "[Newbies][Recognized Contributors] New members friendly Q&A thread" thread to the page 12
Sorry, but I can't find an answer.
Maybe my description is not accurate.
Do I need to cancel this post and write it in the post?

Hi
I'm sure you get this a lot, but I really suck at this. Its my third week surfing these forums and I still can't put a step by step guide in my head on how to root it. A lot of the phrases are out of my understanding, so I'm going to ask and hope someone replies
Here's what I got : Samsung Galaxy S II GT-I9100. Android 4.0.3 , Kernel 3.0.15-I9100XXLPS-CL294511, Build number IML74K.XXLPS
The question is this : Can I root it with 1 click? Truly, without searching for some drivers and stuff I'm not sure I'll find.
Please be aware that I really suck at this, and that I'm basically rooting my phone for Market Enabler and to remove that thing that pops when you double tap center key, the voice command thing, drives me nuts.
Thank you and have a great day!

Use the XX_OXA_LPS CF-Root kernel to root. (find it by doing a "find on page" on the thread) Follow the instructions in post 1.
You will need Kies installed, but not running, for drivers. (or the standalone Samsung USB drivers) Both or either can be found easily with a Google search.
Hey,
Thank you for your quick reply! I do have Kies, as it came on the phones SD card
I will give this a go right now, thank you again for saving me moar weeks of search <3

?? Your phone's SD card?
You know I meant Kies to be installed on your PC, right?
Hey,
Yeah I know. When I purchased the phone I found Kies installation on the SD card, and installed it on the PC. Was the same with Desire HD, I found HTC Sync installation on the SD card. I thought it was normal

That method does not work for newer releases of 2.3.6 or higher. That includes ICS. Which the OP is on. So it would not work for him.

I didn't download it to check, but just watching the video, (at 3:02) the command window that pops up clearly says "Easy rooting toolkit (v2.0) created by DooMLoRD" up at the top, followed by "Modified by Max Lee @ GalaxyS2Root.com". (I believe Max Lee is zedomax, but I don't know for sure)
I don't know what this Max Lee fellow changed, but I'm willing to bet that the actual exploit used to gain root is exactly the same, yes.
Hey just a quick one
Where do I get odin? And how to put my phone in download mode? Is it power, home, and volume down?
Thank you!
EDIT : Made it, but nowhere it says about USB debugging? Should I put it on or off?
EDIT 2 : Made it Ty all!

That's because it doesn't matter if USB debugging is on or off for Odin flashes.
Hi to everybody, and sorry for my poor english.
I'm using Samsung Galaxy S II running ReVolt 2.6.
I got message for upgrade the rom to version 2.7. I follow the upgrade procedure found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28380395.
But when phone restart it doesn't recognize operator sim. It always reboot itself when I unlock it and put the pin code.
If I use phone with airplane mod all works fine.
Any suggestion?
Thank you in advance.

I heard using the phone sim lock was the problem, try removing that and start the phone and I joined on December 3rd, anyway please note that nobody is inclined to give you an answer, so there is no need for sarcasm.

That is absolutely ridiculous.
Look children, this is what happens when you cant be bothered to search, you go and pay some idiot to do what you should have done in first place, ie search, read, learn and do.
If you had search you would have found many topics that recommend various unlocking apps from play store or on xda and unlocked you device in seconds.
Thread Closed:
Questions like this have been asked before and can be answered by doing a little research (searching).
If you plan to advance in your knowledge of android you are going to have to learn and not just expect help on already answered questions.

first of all sorry if this is a repeated thread, very new to this site and no offense intended. please point me in the right direction if this is the case.
phone is very unresponsive with either a battery symbol (with circle inside - frozen) or galaxy s2 load up screen with triangle. I have previously rooted the phone with a litening rom through odin v 1.85. i was running a version of ICS on it and this morning i tried to upgrade to jellybean as a forum on this site had said it was possible. firstly in clockwork mod (holding power, vol up and home button) somewhere through the process of putting the file on the phone (instructions said to carry out the process through the clockwork mod) i have made a grave error. If I was able to get the phone to be recognised by the laptop I would be able to flash another stock kernel through odin to at least get me back functional and worry about tweaking later. Currently the phone won't recognise as a drive to the laptop though. Any advice people? Perhaps a suggestion also of a location of stock kernel for australian samsung galaxy s2 (using the virgin network).

Hi (newb alert)
First of all thanks for all the info - followed the pistacchio thread to regenerate phone, that worked great. however, now once the phone is going again, repeatedly getting an overvoltage error message (did not have before) and the battery dying very quickly. I also cannot access the 3G network, but wifi is fine.
Can you recommend a course of action for this, not sure if i have flashed back to a complete stock rom or not, does that mean that the phone is still rooted? I would like to flash another rom if possible, but am not asking what one to use (have seen the rules of the site Sometimes the battery is even flashing . kernel version is 3.0.15-I9100XXLPH-CL118559 and build number is IML74K.XXLPH.
Any more info needed I am happy to provide. I was really happy with the slim ICS rom and would like to stick with that in the jellybean option if possible.
thanks
Go as stock as possible before going custom again.
See if issues persists.
Make sure you flash the right ROM for your device, noticed you're on I9100 ROM and you've only stated you own an "s II" , so, I cannot recommend any specific ROM because of the variants.
