No you won't lose any phone data...
Just download correct version of kernel which is for 4.1.2 because there is another version in development for 4.3 android
Just download zip. Place it your phone
Go to recovery and flash it from where you have saved it..
That's it
Now reboot...
Nothing else required...

[Q] Help! How to remove CWM from S2

Hi,
I just got my Android and happened to Root it with a firmware containing CWM because I really had no clue as to what it was. Now I would want to be able to remove this icon CWM from my phone. I have tried flashing the kernel to no avail. Please help me with a step by step procedure to remove it since I'm absolutely new to Androids. My S2 runs gingerbread 2.3.6. I did check the web but am so confused with all the options provided.
Thanks in advance.
flash stock rom usin odin simple
It is strongly recommended to back up stock ROM before u give try to Custom ROM.
*#1234# - Check your Firmware version before u do Rooting and make a note some where
You can use those information to download your STOCK ROM from many website (google them)

Since you are rooted, use any file explorer with root access and delete the cwm manager.apk.
Second option is use root un-installer and uninstall the cwm manager

in some Firmwares CWM is included in system applications, so cant simply uninstall it, you can use Titanium backup application to uninstall system apps,
But before uninstalling better you learn more about Rooting and the functions of this app and other root apps. This is a very usefull app in the rooted and Clockwork mod installed devices, for rebooting into recovery easily, kernel flashing, backing up of the Rom ect..
you can have informations from below sticky thread as well as from my signature links.

Thanks guys for your prompt responses. I will try and flash the stock rom and let you know if it work. Thanks again
why do you want to remove it though? Its one of the most useable apps for a rooted phone

I installed CWM to test some custom ROMs on my device. What if for some i reason i have to take my mobile to service center.
Will they charge me (even if my device is under warranty) because i have installed CWM?
Do I really need to remove CWM? If yes, how??
Do you have a 3rd stupid question to ask?

Yes you will need to remove root so flash Sam firmware with mobile Odin and don't root. Now back to stock. :thumbup:
Or send it in and report bk

Thanks for replying andrewwright!! (you too "theunderling"!!:angel
I haven't actually installed CWM yet and came here to clear my this doubt.
Why Sam Firmware (if Sam = Samsung) while my device is XOLO q800? Can I take a backup of my my stock firmware in some way because XOLO is not a popular brand and I won't get much support(stock firmware) over internet.
Also, I read somewhere that particular firmware corrosponds to a particular chipset(mine is MT6589), is it true??
I would really appreciate if you can provide a link for reference where I can read further or otherwise some people will keep yelling here "noob......noob"

[Q] Assistance needed with first root of SG2 i9100

Hi guys. I have been a frequent visitor and learned alot about android and features. I am ready to root my galaxy s2 i9100
My details are :
Android version: 4.04
Model number gt-i9100
Baseband version: i9100XXLQ6
Kernal version: I9100xxlbq-cl911584
build number: IMM76D.XXLQB
I downloaded
ODIN 1.85
CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LQB-v5.6-CWM5
I am not seeing the original kernal file up for download for my version. What else do I need for my root? Is there any advice such as best method and such. Thank you kindly everyone. Mods, if I posted in the wrong section, please move my thread to the correct location.
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

Essentially flashing using a 4.04 firmware will brick the phone? or is it when I flash, it will be bad to flash using a 4.04 firmware? Sooo confused.
If anyone has the steps what I should do, please tell me. I am worried about bricking.
If I root the phone, when official JB comes out, will I be able to update?
any help guys? The thread isn't very clear what do I do if I have this kernal. Do I downgrade before rooting?
Insted of flashing that Cf root kernel with Odin or Cwm, flash Siyah 4.1.5.

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.
if I flash with the CF LBQ, what is my next step?

your phone will be rooted and u can then choose to install a custom kernel like Siyah v 4.1.5 on ur phone which gives u the latest CWM recovery thro which u can install any custom rom of ur choice(meant for i9100 though) on ur phone

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..
Hi everyone! I just rooted my phone and it was sooo easy.
Thank you so much. Your advice and help definitely made it much easier than I though.

Even though ur phone has got a insane chip, its safe for now since u have installed siyah kernel which is 'Brick Bug' free ma8
as for as leaked JB v4.1.2, its better to stay away from it, since its a test version not a official release by samsung
u can visit a cpl of rom threads in both the 'Original android development' section as well as the ' Android development' section, go thro the change logs in the main page of the rom threads, see the one that suits u best
then u can flash the same as per the install instructions on those threads and see

How do I install the roms then? Connect computer and phone -> download mode -> ODIN -> put the rom in there and start it?
or
Can I put the file into sd card and open CRW and then run the zip from e.g sd card?
Do i need to wipe anything before doing either of them? Will it brick my phone??

Downgrading from 4.3 to 4.2.1 and the No Network Issue...

Hello guys....
I am very thankful to the xda forum and all the members who helped me to get through a serious problem..
Recently I installed 4.3 Leaked version on my GT-I9300 and the ROM proved to be worst ROM of life. So I decided to go back to 4.1.2.
I installed the Stock ROM via Odin but I confronted a serious issue, when I was finished the installation I found that there was no network at all... Samsung's official told me that it is impossible to reverse the Android version...
I had no clue what to do. I flashed many ROMs but no solution at all. My IMIE was also kinda jumbled..
Many guys said it is EFS issue... But it is not EFS issue...
It is all because of different Modem issue.. all you need to do is just install a clean Stock ROM from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/ and Install the patched modem... you are done..
So here is the solution:
1. Download your desired Stock ROM for your Country from Sammobile...
Link http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/
2. Install the ROM via Odin
3. Root it and Install your favorite recovery.
4. Install the Patched MG4 Modem Zip in Recovery Mode. Link https://www.dropbox.com/s/geispctijpxqjms/Patched_Modem_I9300XXEMG4.zip
You are done....
This problem is all about MODEM version, so I don't think if EFS tricks are involved here.....
Finally credits go to all the XDA Members who put their heart and soul to present all the required guidance for me to be able to downgrade to lower Android Version.. I have only compiled the whole stuff into a single thread....
Thanks,,,

I can confirm that this method works. XEMB5 (4.1.2 stock rom) on top of the crappy 4.3 update, rooted it and then installed CWM. flashed the patch modem from the link he gave and the XEMB5 rom is working with network running again. but it seems like the battery is awful, 95% in just 10 minutes? lost 5 percent for that short amount of time -_-
then again, thanks for this!

Yes after flashing this modem the battery drains so quickly..

My problem is little different. I can flash any ROM via Odin[DO NOT FORGET TO CHARGE YOUR MOBILE ABOVE 80% battery level!]:
1. Goto recovery by pressing "vo upl+home+power" release when you Samsung's bootloader.
2. Do factory reset/wipe everything.
3. Remove battery for 10secs. Then put it back.
4. Now press "vol down+home+power" to bring it into download mode. Then follow odin flashing procedure. It will work for any Samsung rom. No need to intall any custum roms.
Now going to my problems:
A. My s3 shuts down when it's idle.
B. Bluetooth button does not work. It tries to go to ON position but goes back OFF after 2/3 sec.
After downgrading from earlier 4.3 [SWC] I have even upgraded it with latest 4.1.2 xxemh4 but no luck!
Every thing works network, wi-fi etc. except above two problems!
Help me please!!
I FOUND SOMETHING, WHEN I DO *#1234* IT SAYS CSC: UNKNOWN though my network is ok and wi-fi works fine. Lemme try patching CSC as featherknox suggested!
@featherknox, But your patched modem can not be flashed in recovery[stock] mode as it says "Signature verification failed". HELP ME WHAT I SHOULD DO?

first of all 4.2.1 or 4.1.2 ?
secondly have you wiped data/cache/dalvik cache and format system ?
Third did you try flashing any other supported kernels for your current android version ?

[Q] Trouble for rooting Galaxy i9100 !!!

Hello all
im having a trouble getting rooted my device samsung galaxy s2 i9100 internat model.
it has android 4.1.2 - baseband i9100xxls8 and kernel 3.0.31-889555 , build number JZO54K.I9100XWLSD
i have tried do root with odin and kernel of a specific rom but it fails in the end,says cannot write ,and is failed !!!
i need some help why the hell i cant root it ?
before this i sent to phone a zip of rom.booted into recovery and wiped cache,partitition but i couldnt see the walvik cache or advanced option ???
i understand that this may cause the malfunction of rooting ???
need help friends
You're not going to find "wipe dalvik" until you've installed CWM (an enhanced recovery) which usually comes bundled with a rooted kernel. You're also not going to be able to flash a custom ROM from the standard recovery.
The easiest method to root and install CWM is to flash a rooted kernel via the standard recovery.
Search XDA for PhilZ, follow the instructions and look for the kernel that matches your build.....good luck

http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/rom-optimus-rom-v4-0-t2360552
