I have my I9100P running 4.1.2 xxlsq (baseband I9100PBVLS2), and I want to change the firmware to supernexus, but I can`t find how to root it with a kernel that suports very good supernexus, can someone teach me all of the steps. I don`t have CWM installed, so I need a full tutorial. Thanks! I really appreciate.

Ok, but it doesn`t matter what kind of siyah do I flash? Can you give me a link to a siyah for my I9100P with my baseband? And after all, Does it matter what 4.1.2 do I have? Or what?

Yes it matters which one you flash. Go to gokhanmoral.com and download the one that matches your phone and android version.

I Know how to flash the kernel, but what I don't know if it matters what kind of 4.1.2 I have... So, does it matter what kind of stock JB do I have? Or I can flash siyah no matter the version of 4.1.2? And of course no matter I have I9100P?
It doesn't matter.
Wanna play it safe? Flash I9100's jb and then flash supernexus.

Which version Siyah, and which version VK?
Perhaps you were trying to install an S3 version of Siyah? Or an ICS version of Siyah to a Gingerbread version of VK? Or a GB version of Siyah to an ICS version of VK?
Can't answer the question without knowing versions. (or filenames of what you downloaded)

Hi all,
I stupidly started messing around with flashing kernels onto my SGS2-P, and then found out about this emmc bug.
My device is one of those affected, and I want to go back to my official kernel, mainly because of the emmc worry and
also the G-sensor for orientation doesn't work anymore.
The kernel I flashed was 3.0.15-I9100XWLPT-CL941023.
Does anyone have the official 3.0.15-I9100PXXLPH-CL378510 [email protected] #3 kernel? I have searched the forums but only found a ROM and not sure how to extract just that kernel to flash it.
Please please anyone, if you can help I'd be very appreciative.

That's all you need mate. This kernel is declared safe by Chainfire but as any 4.0.4 kernel should not be used to wipe data because of possibility of emmc cap bug rendering your phone bricked. Root with this kernel but make sure to switch to custom safe one before attempting to wipe data.
Best of luck

If I root the phone, when official JB comes out, will I be able to update?

I actually have the same HW version in my new SGS2 and I have checked with eMMC check (downloaded from Google Play) that my chip is safe from "brick bug" :laugh:
Now the question is: which kernel to choose, CF or Siyah ? I'm planning to use CyanogenMod 10 on this phone, does kernel version matter at all in this case ?
/edit:
ROM will be either original CM10 or one of the variants (like HellyBean for example)

If GotBrickbug app by CF said your chip is safe than it shouldn't matter what kernel you use. Safe hardware.
Personally I always prefer rooting with CF kernels that match my FW version. Then if you're still unsure about the chip... flash siyah, go to advanced (while still in recovery) > reboot recovery. Then wipe data with siyah kernel just to be on the safe side. I always keep siyah 3.5.2 (the first transisiontl ics/jb kernel) for those purposes. CM10 built in kernels are all considered safe so that's the last time you'll ever be worried about it.
Best of luck, man
Thank you very much, I ran emmc check and I have a sane chip.

Samsung releases firmware in various regions and with varied carriers. So I bet that till it is officially released it will take time but when it does you will get OTA if your are on 'STOCK' ROM. but if you move away to custom rom then you will have to update manually.

To revert back assuming you didn't do backup before, download 4.0.4 firmware for your region on sammobile and flash it using odin.. Then to upgrade it when official update are up just hit OTA, kies, or flash it via odin the same way like you flash 4.0.4..
If you don't have idea how to flash then google it, theres plenty much tutorials out there.. hope it helps
Ohhhhhh. I get it. Flash using CF, or CM 10, use triangle app to remove warning triangle and if I need to unroot, flash with 4.04 (my region) using odin? Sound pretty simple. Am I missing any steps?

Actually I get confused myself hehe, by "Flash using CF, or CM 10" you mean flash what? The rest are ok..
Well, let's put this simple, Flash the CF-Root for your phone then you're rooted now, if you want to flash custom rom such as cm10 then flash it (the cm10 zip file to be flashed on recovery mode and don't forget to read the cm10 instruction before & after flashing), if you want to get rid of the triangle then do it with triangle away, finally to unroot and revert to stock, just flash stock firmware via odin..

Yea, its pretty much safe to use this Kernel with Samsung Stock ROM 4.0.4 to get rid of brickbug. I've tried it and its working fine.
Now I'm going to try one of those custom ROMs available here
as I can't wait anymore for Samsung to provide me the latest Jelly Bean ROM.
Go ahead with flashing Siyan v5.01, its safe.
