need help identify phone - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Got a GT-I9100 According to phone info in settings.
I vaguely remember something about a S2 galaxy plus? I think this might be one?
Would I need to look for a rom on the normal S2 i9100 android dev forum?
Or on the s2 i9100 G android forum version?

If that model is right (GT-I9001), and the baseband (i9001 BUKP1) is also right, then you don't have a Galaxy S2.
GT-I9001 is the model number for the Galaxy S Plus.
EDIT to add: the Galaxy S Plus doesn't have it's own forum, but does have a sub-forum in the Galaxy S forum.

Dude, why are you still in the I9100 forums?
Go to the I9001 forum I linked for you. Before you accidentally install something that will permanently break your phone.
EDIT to add: Again, since it's a small device variation of the i9000, there's not a dedicated Q&A section for your device, but there IS a Q&A thread for the I9001 that is located in the I9000 Q&A forum.

It's probably better no one did.
This post is currently in the Galaxy SII I9100 Q&A forum. If you are a Galaxy Wonder owner (Galaxy W I8150), then I'm pretty sure those files from a Galaxy SII (GT-I9100) wouldn't work for you.
You would probably be better off asking for these files in the Wonder forum.

HI, Can you post Phone Apk for Android 4.0.4 here.
I recently Upgraded My LG P990 to Official ICS. But, it has issue with Phone Calls (Black Screen).
Please Post Stock Phone App for ICS 4.0.4.
Thanks.
You're in the wrong place. Samsung's apk is not going to work on your phone.

You're posting in the wrong forum section. This is for the Galaxy S, not the S II.
You can find the Galaxy S II forum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2
What version/model do you have. Is it an i9100. Check on back of the phone under the battery

Apparantly the thead has been moved to the correct section
You had posted it in the I9000 General section but them mods silently moved it to the correct section
At this moment this Google search shows the original location of your post.
Good luck getting your device rooted!

There are several s2 phones, and before we begin dispensing advice, it would be helpful to know which s2 you have.
The best way to find out is in system settings: about phone: model number.
If you remove the battery, the model number can be found there as well.
In this page you can find a good way for root your s2 It worked for me.

[Q] GT-19100M Cyanogenmod Compatibility

Hi all. First post here, looked around a bit but couldn't find anything specifically relating to my question.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-19100M (Bell Canada) and I'm looking to root it (first time doing this) with Cyanogenmod. Unfortunately there is no dedicated version for that specific model. I thought I saw somewhere that you are to use the international version (GT-19100) instead in this case. Obviously I don't want to brick my phone or anything so I was a little weary. Has anyone with the same model as me done this successfully or have any advice.
I appreciate any help you guys can offer. Thanks.
Didn't saw a cyanogenmod specifically for your version. Which processor does it have? Which motherboard? If its identical with any of the versions that has cm here, then it might work.
Edit: Did a quick search and here you go: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II/GT-I9100M
"See Samsung Galaxy SII International. It is the same model"
