Good evening ladies and gentlepeoples! I guess I'm the new kid in town and I'm in need of a little assistance.
As the title of my post states, I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Stratosphere 2 (SCH-I415) which has been rooted and I think my Kernel is a skootch outdated & I'm not sure how to update without messing anything up.
Just to make things easier, here is my setup:
Model Number:
SCH-I415
Android Version:
4.1.2
Baseband Version
I415VRBMA3
Kernel Version

Sorry for such a long post, but any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you for your time.

the kernel is part of the system(firmware), if you update the firmware, the kernel will be update too
but, if there's a custom kernel for your device, you can change it, but you have to rooted your phone first
Well, my phone is already rooted. I just want to update my custom kernel without accidentally bricking my phone. OTA updates no longer work. I try and I get "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped".
Bump/Update
Now sometimes my phone will randomly shut itself off when I'm in the middle of doing something like web browsing or listening to music.

I know this is an old post but I am in need of a stock ROM or a flashable custom ROM for this phone. I am on MA2 or MJ2. I will have to look at the phone again but I know it's 2 for sure. Is there anyway you could upload a copy of 3 for me and other users? Thank you

Hi, I'm new to this website and was wondering if you can help me. Ive got an android phone with FROYO 2.2. Ive search all over the internet for custom ROMs and updates for my phone but no luck. By the way, my phone is called Cherry Mobile Candy.

If I'm missing something please feel free to suggest anything. I really want to try out some custom roms for my phone or updates to boost it up. Thank you.
I don't think you can find any custom ROM for this device, it's a low category Android Phone. But the best quality of Android it's his portability, so you can try to give some informations on porting Android for this device.
Yes your'e right its a low end phone. What benefits i can get if do that Android porting your'e saying?
so can i get an update with this phone?
Porting is a sort of manual building of a ROM for your device. For example my Gio support Gingerbread but not ICS officially, but there are guys that are working on the source of ICS and build the ROM for my device.
Android is open - source, so anyone can do this, whit the right skills.
Hey men, i really need your help!!. So this is how it goes,
Ive Downloaded Rom Manager. ive explored all of its contents, and i bumped to this Boot into recovery option. I tap it without knowing what will it do to my phone. Then the recovery screen appears, i scrolled down to clear all caches and then i choose yes, my phone turns on with no problem, But the thing is when i slide the unlock panel to unlock my phone, i just see a complete black screen, with the notification bar,(with time and the signal indicator) im not sure what to do with this.
As i search through the internet, my phone is not yet bricked, It can boot up to recovery mode, and the test mode. The dumbest decision ive made though, i did not make any backup of my system.
can you help me,sir? thank you,
Try factory resetting the phone.

Hi all,
I just have updated my SGS 2 to version 4.0.4. It's very nice but now i wanted to root my phone again as always.
Normally, i would use the software of Chainfire (thanks!) but i have an strange kernel version or i do not recognize it...
Some information on this:
android-version:
4.0.4
baseband version:
I9100XXLQ6
Go to Settings -> About phone -> Kernel Version. Note the string present there:
2.6.35.7-I9100XXKG1-CL349526
What matters most (KG1) in this case, is in bold. Try to find the matching file under downloads:
CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG1-v4.1-CWM4.zip

Hi,
I have read the warning but all is working well. I do not want to be disrespecful but i'm only using the "root" function of the software. So, i'm not messing around with mods and other stuff.
I do run andriod 4.0.4 (official) and it is working fine (I even reset it to its factory defaulls using the three buttons (power-home-volumeup buttons)). Except for one thing but i think i need to start a new thread for this. My camera (both photo's and film) do not work (also youtube).
In anyway, thank you for the warning. If i really need to downgrade my phone, please tell me.
Flash Siyah kernel. It works on 4.0.4 without any problems.
Hi all, i need to ask you for advice. I am confused. I have problem with stability of signal on my I-9100.

Hi CM9 is a really old ROM.Try CM 10 or 10.1.But if you don't want to,then search for XXMS2 modem.There are many guides how to flash a modem here on XDA.

Thank you guys! I wrote PM to sadekmefti with more Q about his answer and soon as i will know exactly what i should do, i amke reply to this thread. In final i want to make brand new CM 10.1 flsh with JB. I wait impatiently to stabel version, because i use phone every day and i need him for work. I cant risk, that nightly will be corrupt with saome undetect problem. Correct me if i am wrong, but theres no newer stable version of CM then CM9, is it? I cant find it on CM download center. All i see is CM 10.1 nightly for i9100.
EDIT:
I look a while ago for brand stock version of roms nd i found this czech android forum with link to XDA.

I know, but stock roms with all the crap from operators and manufacturer is unuseable. Now, i work with the old CM9 prety well except signal loses and poor tvoice quality :/
What about rooted stock (so you can get rid of all the bloat) ? That way you have the best of both worlds (remove all the crap and it 'just works').

That is one way and my original point in which i decided yeras ago to do first flash. Then i wanted to test CM and its futures. So yes. Steps after steps if secure baase function even with stock JB rom. If is posible to use for example CM10.1, that will be great, but not conditions. I must admit that i am very nicely lost know. I dont know what exactly should i do next to get proper function of signal - phone signal, net, gps etc... GPS problems was oone of the reasons why i wanted to try new roms with all the hooks ways for better gps signal.
Thank you guys... yesterday i flashed xxms2 modem with RIL and works fine. Couple of my contacts who complain on quality of my voice in the past confirmed, that xxms2 sounds much better. Thanks again!

now basically I've gone over threads, tried to learn how to root my device and get a custom recovery so i can install an MIUI rom but It seems that since the days of owning my first Optus S2 the whole process(s) have gotten much more difficult, confusing and complicated...
So I know its noob to ask but I don't care, can I get some help with rooting and gaining cwm recovery or something like that on my device so I can flash a custom rom please?

Which damn files do I actually need, because I can't figure it out -_-
If you still can't figure it out having read those two threads, leave your phone stock. They're self explanatory if you actually take the time to read them properly (as opposed to merely skimming them; taking shortcuts will probably lead to a busted phone).
Hello,
So I've just rooted my SII and have even recovered it from softbricking it when I installed the wrong kernel... Now I am looking for a custom ROM to finally get the type of customization I want from my phone. However since I have softbricked it so easily, I am now weary of installing any ROM that might fit my phone's specifications.
I am a rooky in rooting, but I have noticed that when selecting a new ROM you have to bear in mind the current kernel version, firmware and android version of my current phone. However I do not know what to look for to see if this ROM fits my phone's preferences and I was hoping one of you could help me with this issue. I'm looking for a highly customizable ROM that will speed up my phone and give me improved battery life. The one I thought would do the trick is: NeatRom.
Can someone tell me what is important to look for when selecting a ROM and if the NeatRom I selected is fit for my device.

You can use NeatROM for your device.
Look in the op of that thread and follow the steps you need to do.
On second hand. You need help with rooting? Because you said that your phone is rooted.

Thank you for your reply!
I have just succesfully installed this ROM. Pretty happy with the result untill google apps decided to start downloading all the bloatware back onto my device! Now there is no way to delete it. Not having bloatware was one of the reasons I decided to root my phone and install this ROM. I recon it is because I sync my Google account with my device so its starts downloading al the crap as soon as the installation is done.
Do you know how to undo the installation of the bloatware? Or some other way to prevent google apps from downloading all those horrible apps?

You flash gapps after you flash the rom. So it's probably updating those apps. Maybe there other gapps packages for neatrom.
For instance my gapps package for slimsaber is only 56mb.
To uninstall these apps there are 2 options.
1. Settings - apps - slide to everything - here are all you apps. Most bloatware can be deleted.
2. apps are in /system/app (system apps) and /data/app (user apps) here you can deleted the apk's. But be very carefull because removing the wrong apk can make your system unstable.
My opinion is if you don't know what all apps are and what there for/doing, stick to option 1.
Mod Edit
"Best" ROM/kernel threads are not allowed on XDA.
Please test these things for yourself.
This is the only way you will get an unbiased opinion,and then, you can decide for yourself if it meets YOUR needs.
