So i rooted my GS2 I9100 phone , i want to make sure how i can get my warranty back and what procedure i would like to follow..I am new into this so pls give me full step by step explanation for this..thank you...
Model No-i9100
Android-4.1.2
kernel version-3.0.31-Jeboo_Kernel_v1.2a+
Re: [Q]
If u get a yellow triangle (on booting) after rooting, and/or ur binary count has increased (in Download mode), then ur warranty has been void.
To get ur warranty back:
1. Flash a stock firmware (or a stock kernel if u already have a stock firmware) to get rid of the yellow triangle.
2. Use a USB Jig or TriangleAway app to reset ur binary counter.
Note: TriangleAway app can also remove the yellow triangle.

Try an app call "trangle away", it can reset flash counter of your phone so that you can get you warranty back.

U can get all stock firmwares from sammobile.com. Just download the correct firmware and flash via Odin.
Be warned that u may lose ur user data while flashing.

Ok then NOOBs . There has been foul language, blatant use of the "N" word (noob, not the other) and now discussion on genitalia size.
This thread is cleaned and I can't understand why it has de-evolved into such a fracas so quickly. Help out if you want or not. If you don't then move on.
Also OP, Rooting your phone has nothing to do with instability. It is what you have done since rooting it that has caused these problems. Either installing something or deleting something is the reason. Root in itself, did not.
Thread Cleaned, so let's start over.
btw Triangle Away app can be found here.
Enough!!! Move on

By searching/reading/learning. Guides/tutorials.
Welcome to XDA! Please search this forum first. There are many threads here that will help u to root.
Remember to read everything carefully, otherwise you may end up in trouble!

Before you even consider rooting, as you're running 4.0.4, do a FORUM SEARCH for eMMc brickbug.....it'll let you know whether you are going to turn your SII into a paperweight or not......
And when you've done that, head on over to the "general" I9100 section and look at the "sticky" threads.....you'll find all the info about rooting you could ever need.....

Search for CF-Root kernels or custom rooted kernels (like Siyah/Dori)..
There is also a "Universal Rooting method" too. You can also find a method to 'Root stock ICS without flashing insecure kernel'..

So sorry mate, but I won't be there to answer every question you might have. I can only guide you. You need to do the reading and learning part.
Here's a good place to start.
Read this also.
Be warned against doing stuff without reading about it first. You might end up bricking ur device. :thumbdown:

Maybe there should be a new rule for newbies who join XDA.. attend a short test or exam perhaps, with basic questions related to rooting and stuff..

Nah, let em learn the hard way. Much more fun to watch. I can count the number of people I've seen on here over the past 18 mths break their phones through bad luck on one hand. It's invariably their own fault. And it makes no difference how much you warn most of them. You can spot the ones who are going to bork it a mile away most of the time.

EDIT: Im running.: 3.0.31-Siyah-s2-v6.0b4+ GalaxSim is needed to pay - I dont have option for that, Galaxy S2 Sim Unlock - Dont work, Galaxy S Unlock - also dont work, in step 2 ( Im think ) show message code is found but this is some black boxex and questionmarks instead of numbers, and following all steps dont unlock phone. So nothing for now
Check ur kernel by looking under 'Kernel Version' in "Settings - About Device".
GalaxSim Unlock is free here on XDA I think. Search for it. And don't forget to thank the dev.

Hi,
I have a Galaxy SII I9100G. Last night I tried to update my firmware (OTA) from ICS to JellyBean.
As soon as the update started, my phone froze (Its like me entire screen is filled with tiny green, red,blue, grey bugs) and nothing is working since then. I cant see anything on my device after i try to restart my phone.
I tried using the Vol Up+Home+Power button. But its still the same
I know that my display is working because the welcome screen on my phone appears without any problem. But after that I start seeing those bug like spots on my display.
Could someone please help me on this
Yours is an I9100G right?

When ur phone doesn't turn on at all, its called a 'brick'. When it turns on, but doesn't start up, its called a 'bootloop'.
In ur case, its better to flash the upgrade manually, then do a factory reset.
Can u get into recovery or download modes?
