Kies will display that error message if you have a custom rom. As for lack of root access, maybe someone unrooted it after installing Cyanogenmod.
What is it that you want to do with it?

First of all, do u know how to enter download mode? Can u check what ur binary counter says?
You can download a stock firmware for ur phone from sammobile.com. Then simply flash it via Odin.

That means ur warranty is void. Since the phone would have been out of warranty by now, it doesnt matter.

If u want ur warranty:
- u have to reset ur binary counter
- have a stock firmware
To reset ur binary counter, u need to be rooted. And you have to use Triangle Away app.
I recommend you follow these steps:
Since u are on JB now, root it using Philz kernel and then use Triangle away app to reset ur counter.
Then, do a factory reset and flash stock JB again.

Hi there,
I have a I9100 which was running the samsung stock Android 4.0.4 on the 3 network in the UK which I installed CWrecovery on and rooted. I downloaded an official update via the system update function yesterday and continued installing the update not thinking the root would effect anything, however the the install got stuck on the install screen (like the image attached) while constantly flashing on and off every 3-4 seconds, I pulled the battery after and hour or so. When I power on now it just shows the samsung sII logo along with the triangle and then goes straight back to the android install screen, I also can't go into recovery.
What would be the best thing to do in this instance? would re-flashing a recovery program work?
Thanks for any help!
Whatever happens, DO NOT WIPE DATA OR DO A FACTORY RESET! 4.0.4 is prone to the notorious eMMC brickbug!
Try downloading the new firmware manually and flashing via Odin.

U mean using CF Root kernel to root?
For JB, u can root using a custom kernel like Siyah, using Odin. This will install CWM recovery also and give u root access.
Or u can try the Universal Method to root without installing CWM recovery.

Universal method is intended for those who only want rooted stock firmware, but donot want to flash custom ROMs (no CWM recovery).
Some people have reported issues with CF Root for JB, so Siyah is an alternative. I don't think there are any particular advantages.

Hi, I recently updated my Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 from Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0.4) to Jelly Bean (4.1.2). I have been using the new OS version for a while now and don't like some of the changes that Samsung have implemented. So I was wondering if there is a way of downgrading the OS back to ICS 4.0.4 (the latest official release). Is there a way to select a custom version in Kies and simply update that way? Or am I stuck with Jelly Bean and will just have to adjust to the changes

Hello, noob here D:
Here's the story.. I recently got a Galaxy S2 i9100. It's updated to the 4.1.2 thingy.
Tried to root it, used odin and CF-ROOT v5.5 in the process. Odin said it was OK but I got stuck on the yellow triangle.
Found a guide, guide said to install Stock Rom.. so I did. (Stock rom is I9100XWLPU_I9100XXLQ6_I9100XEZLP3_HOME.tar )
Now there's no yellow triangle but it's stuck on the flashy S screen.
I never had a smartphone, and I don't understand most of the words people use here (mainly that 'flash it' thing xD )
I tried to look for a post or anything to solve this but kinda failed..
Help?
What you have is called a 'bootloop' mate.. it can be sorted out.
Which android version do u have now? Its 4.0.4 right? 4.0.4 is subject to risk of eMMC Brickbug.
So, I suggest you download another stock firmware (other than 4.0.4) and flash it via Odin.

If it still bootloops, boot to recovery and do a factory reset.

Flash Philz XXLPP kernel for I9100P in CWM recovery (not via Odin). This is a stock kernel and hence your buttons should function again.
Please wipe cache, dalvik cache and Fix Permissions after u flash this. And remember, the first will takes a long time!

Yup..
Only look for the section 'Flashing firmware with odin'. Don't follow anything else or download from there.
If ur scared to do that, use this guide:

1. Just download the firmware version you want
from the second or third posts and extract
the .tar or .tar.md5 file in the archive and save it
somewhere
Thanks a lot mate. I really appreciate. But where do I download it from..... Sammobile? Sorry for the annoying questions.

Hi bruv. Thanks for all the reply. Wana ask one last question. While I was tryna upgrade my phone from gingerbread to jellybean. I downloaded an official jellybean firmware. Can I use that firmware to flash with odin?
