Hi People,
After being a long time lurker on this board, I finally thought it was time to signup now that I'm in desperate need of some help. The girlfriend has been complaining about the poor battery life of her phone ever since she carried out the latest update. Now with that in mind, I thought I'd do what I've done with my ZTE Skate and that's change over to good ole' cyanogen mod.
So I downloaded Odin3 in the hope of unlocking my phone but when it comes to hunting around for the most appropiate Kernel, for one reason or another, I can't seem to find the one I'm looking for. The details are the following:
Model Number GT-19100
Android Version: 4.1.2
Baseband Version: 19100XXMS2
Kernel version:
3.0.31-1211311

Could anyone please point me in the right direction? I've tried searching high and low but have came up short each time I've been looking. Hopefully, if there is one out there, I'll be able to use CF-Root 5.6 or something similar to change the Kernel so I can swap out the rap to something a little less resource intensive.
Any help would be much appreciated. I know this is my first post but I hope this isn't enough to put anyone off from helping me out. This is an awesome community and before creating this thread, I did search high and low but came up with nothing.
Thanks very much people! :good:
You're asking for a recommended kernel at the same time as saying you want to flash CyanogenMod (and "unlock" the phone?). Before you do something (else) stupid, you should do some more reading. Especially on the difference between a ROM and a kernel. Everything you need to know about CyanogenMod is in its own thread(s).
Apologies for my stupidity! Just when I thought I knew what I was talking about, I end up shooting myself in the foot. I'll take on your advice and do some more reading!
I am also confused about what exactly you are planning to do... What do you mean by "unlocking", and how are you going to use Odin for it? Is your gf's phone completely stock, i.e. not rooted? If so, the easiest way to me would be to flash PhilZ kernel and recovery straight from stock recovery (you don't need Odin for that, and it will not trigger the yellow triangle). This will give you root and a very nice touch CWM, which you can then use to flash CM (if that's your intention), or anyhing else you want...

Thanks very much kt-Froggy! I think I was confusing myself when I wrote my original post but somehow you managed to make sense of exactly what I was asking. Her phone is completely stock and I was looking for the appropriate kernel to flash. I'll give this a shot and see how I get on. With a little luck, it should be plane sailing! Cheers! :good:
No problem! Just make sure you get the right PhilZ version (the latest XWLSW) to match your current ROM. IMHO, it's by far the easiest way to get both root and CWM on our phones.

Hey all,
I'm a beginner in this rooting society, moving over from jailbreak development on iOS. I am wondering how I would be able to root a Galaxy S2 with model/kernel number ZSKF4 running 2.3.3.
Not sure if this is the proper place to put this, but I've searched everywhere and no place is providing an insecure/original rom for rooting with this kernel number on the file name.
Can somebody help me?
Many thanks,
Nicholas
UPDATE: Anyone know how to root ZSKI2 running on 2.3.5?
Root + CWM .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
Read the post in regard to versions /kernel matching first .

Thank for your reply.
Many guides like the one you gave me, requires kernel matching first, but really, I'm entirely lost in this matching process. Can you give me some heads up on what to choose using my specs I list below?
My Galaxy S II:
Model Number: GT-I9100
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband Version: I9100XXKE4
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-I9100ZSKF4-CL280225
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.ZSKF4
If you can help me, I will be very grateful.
Thanks a lot!
Nicholas
Instructions in the post are .
Don't worry too much, just find the matching download and use it. What if there is no matching download ? You can ask me to make one, but I can tell you right now, I very very rarely make CF-Root's for kernels on request, unless it is the very latest kernel that has been released by Samsung. In the latter case, be sure to let me know. If there's no match and I'm not making one, try finding the closest match. You should treat "KG1" as a number, but instead of 1-9, we have 1-9, A-Z (where A would be 10, and Z would be 35). "KG2" is really close to "KG1", "KF1" is not close to "KG1" at all.
You want then a KF4 kernel from post 5 .
jje
This one from post 4 should do it: CF-Root-SGS2_ZS_OZS_KF4-v4.0-CWM4.zip
You have a HK/Taiwan phone? If you install Kies you should be able to upgrade to the official ZSKG2. Although that is still 2.3.3 so not much difference there.
Yes, I have a HK/Taiwan phone,
Thanks guys,
So if I have ZSKF4 right now, I'll use "CF-Root-SGS2_ZS_OZS_KF4-v4.0-CWM4.zip"?
If I upgraded to the latest ZSKG2, will there be any difference comparing to ZSKF4? because you said its the same 2.3.3.
Okay, well after looking at the instructions, I got a little freaked out of how long it actually is, and was pretty worried if I do this, I would get a triangle at boot because I'm using Custom Kernel? Also I heard that many people don't want to use CF-Root because there's a higher risk of bricking comparing to SuperOneClick that I used to root my Galaxy Tab 7. So, I checked on something else.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125414
Thats a one click rooting app for the S2, but what is this "Flashing an Insecure Kernel" and how do I get this kernel for either ZSKF4 or ZSKG2? I prefer the most easiest way so that I wouldn't run into a huge risk of bricking this device. Thanks for all the help on CF-Root above, but would you guys happen to know what exactly is going on in this link?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671
That contains all the insecure kernels for the S2 one click rooting application. Which one do I choose if I have ZSKF4 or ZSKG2?
Thank you everyone for helping me,
Nicholas
Rooting with CF-Root is very easy, just start up Odin, click the boxes like it says in the instructions, and it's done in less than a minute. You can use the other method, but if I were you I would just go with CF-Root because 1) so many people have done it and 2) at least you know one person (me) who did it on their HK/Taiwan phone and came out fine (and I was a complete root noob at the time).
I think whether you upgrade to ZSKG2 first depends on why you want to root. If you are rooting so that you can install a custom ROM, then no need to upgrade to ZSKG2. Just root your phone and install the new ROM and you're good to go.
But if you want to keep the Samsung firmware and only rooting so that you can run certain apps or do certain mods, then upgrade to ZSKG2 through Kies first, then root. There is nothing really bad about the Samsung firmware. I run Cognition 1.5.1 + SpeedMod, but it's mostly just for the fun of it. I don't do anything on it that I couldn't do with rooted 2.3.3 Samsung firmware.
And yes, you do get the bright yellow triangle at startup. There are ways to remove it, but I haven't tried. I like the triangle, it's like a little badge of honor for power users.
Yeah, I'm only rooting for just certain apps that require root/superuser requirements. Other than that, I won't put a load of mods on.
So, if I go to Kies, upgrade to ZSKG2, then I begin rooting, would I be using:
CF-Root-SGS2_ZS_OZS_KG2-v4.1-CWM4.zip
But the thing that scares me is that it says "ZS_OZS_KG2: Untested", does that mean it would be risky to do it?
Hey just noticed in the General forum that the official ZSKI2 is out - and its version 2.3.5 to boot. Check it out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1281717
Yeah the "untested" means the author did not try it personally (can't really expect him to test every kernel from every region). I used it and it worked fine -- that's all I can really say.
Oh wow, that looks pretty cool....
I'm sure I can update to that, which I will, but, does this mean I have to wait for another rooting procedure?
I have a crazy "OCD" that I have to always stay up to date haha. So yeah, if I do this, logically if the CF-Root is able to root it, I will have to wait for a person to make the ZSKI2 kernel insecure version?
Actually, okay, when I upgrade to ZSKI2 kernel, which "CF-Root-SGS2_ZS_OZS_KG2-v4.1-CWM4.zip" do I use? I don't see a ZSKI2 kernel anywhere...and I'm assuming I can still use CF Root to root at 2.3.5?
You can use a version that is close -- in this case I think XX_OXA_KI3 is the best match. It will probably work with the ZSKI3 firmware -- but I have not tried. (Sorry I mistyped the name in my earlier post, it is ZSKI3 and not ZSKI2.) If you want to be safe then yes you will need to wait until there is a rooted ZSKI3 kernel that you can use.
If you plan to install a custom ROM, then it does not matter what kernel you use for root, since the custom ROM will generally come with its own rooted kernel and it will replace whatever you had before.
For some reason, Kies isn't letting me update.
It says: "This version of this device cannot be updated"
Do you know why this is happening?
By the way, I noticed when I plug in my phone to Kies, I see under CSC, in brackets are (KOR). What does this mean and does it affect any rooting?
UPDATE: I know what KOR means, it means it's a Korean region based device. Is there any difference to what I may be able to update to in Kies or any rooting differences?
hi guys - finally decided to take a look at rooting and getting cwm on to my s2 to give it some custom loving.
need a little advice on what cf root version im needing as some of the numbers etc look similar to each other with varying letters that im not sure of.........
phone details are:
gb 2.3.4
baseband i9100xxki1
kernel 2.6.35.7 - i9100xwki4
build xwki4
i can see variants of xwki4 (ie nee v4.1, 42 v 4.2 etc etc) but id rather get it right first time as il get hung by the mrs if i screw it up lol
cheers in advance and if anyone wants to suggest a rom
scotty
I don't know about CF-root. I used superoneclick, but I suggest to use cm9 if high battery consumement and some bugs aren't bothering you, if they are, I suggest to use GalaxyZerox if you want to get nice ics look
I don't think it really matters what kernel you flash to root it. I think its just advisory to get one that closely resembles your original one when first rooting. As once its rooted, when you flash a different rom they come with a kernel anyway and most people on here seem to always be experimenting with different kernels.
Hopefully someone else will confirm this.
I'm fairly new to this but it really isn't that hard as long as you follow the instructions from wherever you get them from.
Mark
cheers guys - all done! just went for it and alls good.
appreciate the responses.
rom time yeehaa
Hi Guys, I've been searching and searching for several days now, and trawling endless requests and information about what kernels are compatible with what, but [blank look] huh?
Being an HTC user for the last 5 years, this all seems overly confusing, just when I think I have the info I need, I read a contradiction, then the thread dies!
So my question, and I apologise so much if this has been (and I'm sure it has) asked before:
I have a KH2 orange branded SGS2. I've flashed a new kernel (KH3) CFRoot, didn't put the original one back on because I don't want to lose CWM - it was invaluable on the hero, g1 etc.
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband: I9100BVKH1
Kernel: 2.6.35.-I9100XXKH3-CL479037 [email protected] #2
Build: GINGERBREAD BVKH2
But I still have the old Orange Firmware / Rom on the phone. I want to try some new unbranded ones, and check out how cyanogen works (and hunt out villainRom! My fave), but worried that if I use a rom with the wrong code (i.e based on XWKL1 or IML74K) I'm going to end up with an expensive (but very pretty) paperweight.
I see KH1, KH2 and KH3 in my phone info and I'm starting to get a little nervous that I messed up! lol
As far as I'm aware the code (XXKH3) (XWKL1) refers to the kernel?
The baseband would be the modem? If so, is this flashed with the rom/firmware?
How on earth do you decipher those codes?!
Thanks, and again, apologies if this is not a unique question but I'm sure the search feature is beginning to wear out now. If I had a touchscreen pc, there'd be a hole in the screen from pressing it so often!
The "codes" as you call them are just firmware version numbers
(Year)(Month)(rom number)
So KK5 would be a 2011 rom released in the 11th month and its the 5th rom built this month.
BVKH1
Bold: Country code
Underlined: Rom version
Baseband is the modem, you can mix/match any modem with any firmware (also our modem is almost unbrickable, had someone flash a i9000 modem and it was fixed by flashing a correct one ontop, but still be careful), there is no "best" modem, just find one that works for you.
Its best to keep your kernel and rom version the same, but it wont hurt to much if they dont match.
Recovery and kernel are fused together in samsung devices, so when you flash a kernel you flash recovery, so in order to get CWM you need a kernel with it (glad to see you worked this out!)
Dont worry about the base version, you can flash any i9100 rom on your i9100, the code is just a version+region code.
Also you dont need to worry about the region code, it doesnt have to match your region.
Also, this is a very good guide
ps make sure to backup your EFS asap, read that guide for more info!
Thank you very much!!
That's so much clearer And now I'm not terrified of turning my SGS2 into a plastic poptart let the fun begin!!

Stock roms: clickme and howto flash guide
Hello everyone.
I am the noob in the video when you create a new account. And I do want to apologize for burdening you with my problems, and also let you know that i appreciate a lot your help. I am still in shock how much info this forum has.
Now to get started and keep it short.
Got a galaxy S2 from 3 UK
with the help of a friend i changed the stock software ( the rom i think) and unlocked it. but i always wondered if the new OS release is better than what i have now.
so, here are the stats i know how to give ( if more are needed, please call me a noob and tell me where to get them )
Model : T-I9100
Android v: 2.3.4
Baseband: I9100XXKH3
Kernel V : 2.6.35.7 -I9100XXKH3-CL479037
Build No : GINGERBREAD.XXKH3
Also I need to tell you that from what i gather from my friend he used this website to get the tools and instructions to do everything.
The phone is rooted (if I didn't say that already). I have:
CWM Manager v2.0
Current Kernel: CF-Root 4.1
Superuser app - not sure if i should write something more
and the rest of the apps are not related.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What I would like to achieve (on top of learning more - been reading them tutorials and slang and how to's)
It will take me a while to learn how to do stuff on my own, been using the search button, I know how you guys insist on that . A LOT of the tutorials are about how to go from stock, just wondering if from already rooted is any different. Should I root again, when is the rooting part coming, etc.
And also without practice or trying myself I would never learn, or it would take me a long time.
I very much like the cyanogenmod, although I would also like to see some alternatives. The differences and/or the improvements the other mods bring explained in laymen terms (or easier ones, although i don't think i'll find that).
And here I get confused. As for firmware, does cyanogenmod have a kernel or do i install that separately. Don't understand the connection between CF-ROOT, XXKH, Kernel and ROM. What I'm trying to say is that i can't make the connection between this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 and the cyanogenmod. I am looking for a good Kernel/Rom combination. Any advice, I really need your help here.
And as a last note, brand new installed kies with troubleshooting and reinstalled drivers, won't read my phone, although i'm pretty sure i'll search the forum and solve this problem fast.
Also if possible, I would like only LINKS, to how to's and tutorials; although I would appreciate your help any way it comes, I'd like to read myslef, as it is a better way for me to retain information. If you can point me to a thread i can find info that i skipped over would be brilliant.
Thank you first for taking the time to read all this, even if you can't/don't want to help me, I appreciate you giving me time, something you can't take back, very grateful for that. Apologies for my broken English and awkward writing style.

Well that is due to you not reading the FAQS and GUIDES .
Kernel is the bit between OS and hardware .
Rom is the full firmware package of kernel modem and OS .
Kernels are in the DEV section .
Combo is up to you read look learn try are the XDA rules .
Whats best rom kernel posts are banned this is a developers forum you are required to do some work .

Understood. Will follow your advice.
Before installling ROM + Kernel + Radio. Advice sought
Right, so after a couple of days reading up on stuff, I have decided to go for it. So before I actually install something I want to post here what I've decided on and ask your opinion on it.
At the moment I have:
Android: 4.0.4
BaseBard: XXKH3
Kernel: 3.0.30 - NETCHIP -some more numbers and stuff
Build Number: IMM76I
Mod Version : HyDrOG3n - ICS -more numbers
--------------------------------------------------------
And I decided to install:
Radio: XXKE7-Rev_02 (as I read a lot of people were pleased with it, so i want to try it)
And here i have a question: I've downloaded 1 that has 4.7 MB, and a MD5 that has 12 MB. Any help to understand the difference would be appreciated.
ROM: Insanity II ICS 070 - from his official thread I also got the missing fonts and sound pack.
Kernel: Here is where I had most problems being a noob and all.
I was planning on getting Hellcat's Root Kernel v1.25. But here is where i get lost. And believe me i tried to read on it and understand it.
Kernel version must be compatible with ICS rom? That's how I understand it.
Kernel A - Only for GB
Kernel B - Only for ICS
(where A and B are different versions or something, can't figure this one out)
So at the end I would have: Radio XXKE7 + Insanity II ROM + Hellcat's Root Kernel.
Is this a viable combo? Any opinions.
I UNDERSTAND THERE ARE NO SUCH THING AS BEST ONES. I am only trying to find out if anyone tried this combo before and how did they like it.
PS: Although I don't understand Kernels yet, I take any kernel on this forum and then pick every technology they have and google it each one at a time. That's my method of understanding what stuff do. If you can recommend a better one, PLEASE PLEASE DO
PPS:I am really sorry for the long post and the wrong title, I changed my mind, this forum is mind numbing vast and exciting and complex, and I am just a little noob discovering the biggest candy in the phone department.
Thank you all for the time to read this, and thank you in advance for your help
EDIT: I would also like to try [ROM][XWLP9]★ Dynamic v1.4 ★[ICS][Slim][Performance & Battery life][25April] in case the Insanity II is not compatible. But if I'm honest I would like to try it anyway, when i fancy a change in the future.
If this :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182922&highlight=hellcats+kernel
is the kernel you are talking about, it will not work with the ICS rom. Checking the kernel thread, it does not show its for ICS, but just GB.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576355
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1555259
Are good options for kernels, but there are more so check it out. You just have to make sure the kernel is compatible with AOSP. Speedmod kernel would have also been a good option, but that is for samsung roms only, not AOSP like Insanity II ICS.
Would you like us to stand beside you next time you take a leak & shake it for you when you're done ?
I.E. Experiment. Try stuff out. As long as you can read/follow instructions you shouldn't brick your phone. If you need to run what you're going to try by anyone on here you're probably in the wrong place.

I have people to do that already, they watch me take a leak and shake it. To make sure I don't shake more than three times. We all know that if you shake more than 3 times you're playing with it.
But what I asked is no different than when people release a new kernel/rom/etc, and 3-4-5-6 posts after that are questions on how it works.
I did not ask for the best combo or something like that. I asked if anyone tried that combo. Granted i screwed it up since I wasn't aware of the compatibility thing. I will check now the compatibility between roms and kernels, although sometimes for a noob like me its not that easy to tell with all the acronyms and versions and numbers. If my posts bothered you soo much, ignore it and you'll be a happy bugger

But that is failure to read the guides and understand and a fail to read the change logs for the different bits .
You would be far better off gaining basic understanding by just flashing a few custom roms rather than attempt to build your own version .Following the rom threads instructions for add ons different kernels etc.
Modem KE7 is very old for starters looks like you have read a few bits from varying places someone says thats good and are attempting to build a mixed up rom with non compatible parts ..

Although KE7 is very old still it emerges as one of the top modems...
recently I tested it with many ICS roms versions, and currently using, very battery friendly, stable and fastest 3g data download compare to latest Modems came with ICS versions.

A good starting point for this S2 variant is HERE(Australian S2 help guide). A lot of your questions will be answered there, just have a good read. The "T" version has the same basic hardware and can run the same roms as the international version. Also there is a cwm that is touch: Philz. Unfortunately both philz and cwm are no longer being updated, although at the moment the latest versions are still good.

A good starting point for this S2 variant is HERE(Australian S2 help guide). A lot of your questions will be answered there, just have a good read. The "T" version has the same basic hardware and can run the same roms as the international version. Also there is a cwm that is touch: Philz. Unfortunately both philz and cwm are no longer being updated, although at the moment the latest versions are still good.
