Samsung model shw-m250k - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, my dad has a korean galaxy s 2(model shw-m250k). He wants to have JellyBean, since he has the old gingerbread one. The thing is, can i flash a i9100 jellybean ROM?. I mean the model are different, and i couldnt find a jellybean for shw-m250k model.
Also, are korean phones unlocked?. His device is from the company "Alleh" from south korea, but he can use a sim from personal here, in argentina.

Why not check out the discussion thread for ur device?

Yes it is possible. I have a M250S with i9100 firmware.
Afaik, you need to reboot into download mode and flash a stock JB firmware using odin, along with the .PIT files. That is you check repartition option. But I strongly suggest you ask in the appropriate thread. Messing up a flash when using repartion and pit file will brick your phone. Make sure to have a backup of your efs folder before starting anything.

Hi Gyus, where can i download a Jelly Bean rom por my S2 SHW-M250K. I want to install a custom Rom but i need install JB first! Thank You, i read a lot of post, and i dont find one!! See youuuuuuu

Good lord, dude. You give next to no details on what specific phone you have beyond the fact you have a "Galaxy S2", and are expecting someone to tell you what to flash to it. From the wikipedia article, I count nearly a dozen COMPLETELY different models of phones that are called Galaxy S2, and TWO that are similarly modeled, (GT-I9100, and GT-I9100G) but different enough that if you flash a firmware intended for one onto the other, you end up with a paperweight.
First things first: what the heck model phone do you have? It's on the label under the battery.
If (and ONLY IF) your model is "GT-I9100" (NOTE: NO "G" AT THE END), then follow the link that JJEgan posted. There are instructions in the first post. You can probably use the latest firmware in post #2.
If your model is something else (ANYTHING that starts with "SGH-"), than you are in the wrong forum, and DO NOT flash anything you get from any postings under the I9100 forum.

SGS II-I9100G update question.

Hi, my sis is using SGS II GT-I9100G, she wants to update to stock ICS (singapore) firmware. I found this (GT-I9100_XSP_I9100DXLP9_I9100OLBLP9_I9100DXLP9) firmware and im not sure can her phone update to this firmware cos the file name is stated "GT-I9100_XSP" instead of "GT-I9100G. So can anyone help me out here to confirm whether i can just update via odin or not? Or is there any other stock ICS for "GT-I9100G"? Thanks in advance.
GT-I9100G does not has ICS yet
If not sure whether there is a fimrware update available for your phone check SamMobile or use 'Check Fus'.

You cannot. That firmware file is for the I9100, NOT the I9100G.
I9100 and I9100G are not compatible for firmwares and kernels between the two phones due to the different CPU/GPU/SoC.
If you flash a i9100 firmware on a i9100g phone then you will brick your phone, go for a custom rom.
Nevermind
ok, thanks guys...so i guess i have to put on hold without choice...

Use a temporary recovery and then flash a siyah or dorimanx kernel (grab a good one for your android version)
or see below (alternative to above)

[Q] Update problems and some other stuff

Hi,
i bought via ebay a Samsung Galaxy S II. I discovered that is brand by H3G ( italian telephone company ).
I want to ask a few questions:
1) Why i can't update my phone to a new android version? Now there is the 4.0.3 and when i try to update via OTA it tell me that there are not update for my phone but i know it was released the 4.0.4 and the 4.1.2 for galaxy s2 ... also for H3G branded.
If i try to update via kies... kies tell me that i have to update kies and than update the firmware... but, when I try to update the kies , the program shoot down!!!
2) I lost my S II and i bought this one. The previous one , in the dropdown menu had more than 5 toggle... is possible to increase the toggle? Or is a feature of android 4.0.4 or 4.1.2?
3) Can I manually update the firmware ( i want to use the official firmware )? Or i must to root and crack the phone ?
Thanks

As for question number
1- If ur sure an update is available, uninstall Kies, reboot, download the latest version and install it. Then try again.
2- 4.1.2 comes with more than 5 toggles, but to customize them, u need to flash a mod or use a custom ROM.
3- U can manually update using Odin (smaller brother of Kies) by downloading the required firmware from sammobile.com. You don't need to root.
May I also suggest you read this thread.

1) Hmm...That's weird. Three has already released JB for S2 already. However, I have a strong feeling it is not working because you are in a different country( I presume)
2)I am pretty sure the old one had a custom ROM on it. On stock JB, there are 9 toggles.
3) You can and you have to use ODIN for that. I strongly recommend you don't yet, as you are new.
Go online, view threads about i9100 and its custom roms, kernels and recoveries, then start slowly flashing things. Never mistake an i9100 for an i9100G and Read, Read, Read.

So many thx for the reply.
For point 2, i don't want to customize the toggle... but i want the version of android with more than 5 toggles... I don't know what version i had in my "old lost phone"... and i'm trying to search that version to install it in my "new phone"
For other ponint... ok. Thank you.. i'll try! :good:
Like the previous posts said, stock JB has 9 toggles.
