updating firmware - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello, radio update is firmware update?
in case radio = firmware (like in htc sensation xe - latest firmware 3.33):
i have 4.0.4 unofficial rom on my gs2, and i want to update my rom to x-tream rom (android 4.2.2) but all those firmwares are 4.0.4.
should i update firmware before i change to the new rom or it doesnt matter? could you please give me the link to a guide of how to update to latest firmware?
thanks in advance

You can update directly but emmc brickbug is present in 4.0.4 and you should update to 4.1.2 or downgrade to 4.0.3 then flash what do you want
Send from my SGS2 I9100 with HassanROM and latest DorimanX 8.xx kernel

sorry i didnt really understand, update rom or firmware, and what firmware should i use?

ROM = Firmware
Which firmware? Anyone you want, it doesn't matter.
You don't even have an I9100 do ya?

Just wondering if its safe to flash a rom like CM9 or even a gingerbread rom after updating the offical 4.0.3 update through kies. Thanks
You need root
You need cwm
use custom roms for your model only.

[Q] Latest stock & CM ?

Hello everybody. I have a i9100 with pda: xwlpy, phone: xxlq6, csc: neelp6 on stock 4.0.4 and Dorimanx 5.92 kernel.
Untill now i didn't want CM because of the dialer (really like the Samsung dialer) and other small things, but now i want a clean, fresh install and start.
So i was wondering, can I install this stock LSJ 4.1.2, then root it (or should i install it with mobile odin and try to keep root? i preffer via pc but root is a must), then install Dorimanx 7.26 kernel with mali and then as a second rom this CM 10 4.1.2 ? Then i'll switch dorimanx to battery mode because i'm not that much into gaming.
Are this the latest releases? Any advice before i start working ? (now i'm downloading for ages the stock 4.1.2)
You can root LSJ but not with Dorimax kernel.
You cant use dual boot option (yet).
Yes XXLSJ is latest release.
ok, is that 4.1.2 stock recommanded or another download

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
that stock 4.1.2 is a leaked test version and not a official samsung release for u
hence try some other stable Stock ICS 4.0.3 versions for now, till a official JB released from samsung
hm... any eta for that ? that would be great but i'm afraid i'll have to wait some months and move to another country, so i'll have little access to a pc to get in download mode and everything to make a really clean install

[Q] Firmware Question - Pakistan

Hi,
I am currently in pakistan and wanted to update my device to latest firmware (Stock Only) , i am not getting good battery life on Jelly Bean so i would wait for the official release
When i go to sammobile.com , there i can find 4.0.4 firmware when i search for pakistan firmware , but when i flashed 2.3.5 from sammobile for pakistan and applied the OTA update , it updated the phone to 4.0.3 , i wonder the firmware on sammobile , is it leaked or official because i am not getting that firmware from OTA update , My phone originally came from UK (Three Network) but its unlocked but i like stock roms so i just wanted to know whats the difference in updating from OTA to 4.0.3 or just flash 4.0.4 from sammobile ?
Shall i flash stock firmware for H3G network , will that update via KIES or OTA update to Jelly Bean (When its released)
Anyone can help please?
Thanks in advance!

I was wondering If it is safe to flash a 4.3 stock Firmware via odin on my I9300 4.0.4 device.It's baseband version is I9300XXLH1 which hasn't recieved any OTA updates so I'm going to flash one via odin.And I also wanted to know if any fullwipes will be needed after flashing new firmware cause for my I9500 which I flashed a 4.3 firmware on a 4.2 one I needed a fullwipe in order to fully boot the device...

i9100 2.3.6 gingerbread firmware for downgrade s2

I9100XXKL1
firmware original
Link valid please
Not sure why you want this as it's very old, official 4.1.2 is out, and we have all android versions available for our device from 4.1.2 to 7.1.1 in custom roms....any way:
