[Q] *#1234# is not working on I9100 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have currently installed a ROM of Cyanfox on my Samsung Galaxy S2 (I9100). Thats why my *#1234# does not work. I want to know the information like PDA,,,,, etc. What may be the solution?

That code won't work because the ROM you have on now is not Samsung based. Why do you want to know those info?

[Q] Downgrade Samsung Galaxy S2 from Jelly Bean 4.1.2 to ICS 4.0.4

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

Since you are obviously new to rooting and flashing, may I suggest you read:

Recovery and Download modes
How to flash stock firmwares using Odin
Also read about 'eMMC Brickbug' issue on 4.0.4.
And don't forget to take an EFS backup too!!

If u only want root and not CWM, try zergRush exploit method.
If u want CWM, post ur 'About Phone' details here and let me know.

[SOLVED] [HELP] No Mobile Data in SGS2

Hello folks, this is my first post Hope to have a solution for my M250S converted to Galaxy S2 which I'm having a problem with.
I'll get to the point straight.
The problem that I'm with S2 is that I'm not able to use mobile data. Even though I've enabled mobile data from settings, No mobile data icon is shown in status bar. I've set up APN settings correctly as well. Did try with different network SIM with correct APN settings. But no luck. I'm talking about either EDGE, HSPA or 3G icon in the status bar (like in attachment below).
But internet via WiFi works fine. Tried flashing a new stock ROM, custom ROM, wiping out cache, factory resetting and turning on "WCDMA only" as well :crying:
Could this be a hardware fault? Or firmware issue (like csc or modem)?
Note : On the first day I purchased the phone, mobile data worked (and it was already converted to i9100). But backside of the phone near camera got overheated. Then I turned mobile data off and switched to wifi. Afterwards I can't remember that I could use mobile data.

So you can make calls and no data. Just try a restore of your efs. Its a very bad file that can be curupted so easy. Most will have no call but data. See were im coming from on this. Worth a try.
