Help, Question.

Idk if this is the right place, but, I want to flash a T rom on the Optimus T. But I don't know where to start as the Basebands, new/old, and the p509 or p500. I don't what to end up bricking, please and thank you.
This should be in the general thread. Btw is your phone rooted?
Errr.. no, this is not the right place I guess!
Fast replies. I like that.
But can someone PM me? Usually no one answers a question like this. o-o

People answer questions in threads with descriptive titles and enough coherent information to figure out what the poster is trying to do and what has already been done. Since you say you are not used to XDA, this intro may help understand the culture here.
On your Opt T aka p509 or the Optimus One aka p500 you can do things like this (using adfad/CM as an example)
old baseband + (A- or F-series adfad).
new baseband + (N-series adfad or CM official nightlies).
If the latter fails data you can do old baseband + (N-series or CM nightlies) + aspee's baseband fix. If you stick with the above scenarios you won't have to worry about kernel versions at this stage of the game.
I believe you have already been pointed to the baseband flashing thread. Once ya know 10e=old, 20g=new the flashing thread will get you where you want to go.

What do I do if I flashed the CM N series, and baseband fix, but still got no data?
If you want to use a ROM based on new baseband (like nightly CyanogenMod) you need to flash first a new baseband stockROM (stock Gingerbread), but if you want to use a ROM based on old baseband (like CM based on mik_os work) you need to flash first an old baseband stockROM (stock Froyo).
First at all, Are you using Froyo or Gingerbread? (stockROM)
Use baseband patches is only recommended if you won't change baseband (using KDZ Firmware Updater or LGMDP)
I think that P509 haven't stockGingerbread, if you don't flash P500's stockGingerbread you only have old baseband, and, for signal reasons, you can't use new basebands ROM's (GSM don't work properly).

Because i want to change to Cyanogen

Of course i was once a noob but one who thought that following the instructions would be better than bricking a phone and looking like a **** .Even worse would be posting on a forum and asking how only to be told read the instructions .
Not that you are alone it seems to be the norm for many noobs.

But the instructions are in the very first post of the CM9 thread. I find it hard to believe nothing came up.
EDIT: I'm not trying to be a ****, and I don't think JJEgan was either; but it's a frustrating thing to see a bunch of posts asking questions that are already answered - many times in the very first post of the thread that contains the subject matter the person is asking about. If the thread was read thoroughly, then why is the question being asked?

[Q] GT-I9100G 2.3.6 CF-Root [Build XXLB1]

Hi
I got hold of a S2 and would like to know if there is a CF-Root option for this phone ... details of the updated phone:
Model: GT-9100G
Android:
2.3.6
Baseband:
I9100GXXKL4
Kernel:
2.6.35.7

No. If you flash I9100 firmware (rom or kernel) on your I9100G you will brick it. Try this thread.

You mention your links ... but all I see there is:
GT-I9100G_DZKI1_insecure
GT-I9100G_ZCKHI4_insecure
How is this relevant to my version?
How would I know exactly what kernels are in that thread ? Have you read past the first page or searched the thread ? Thought not Have you bothered to search for yourself ? Again, I doubt it.

It's nice to blast when you have the answers ... the forum is for questions ... even in the last few pages in your thread (as this is one of the latest builds) ... people are asking the same question on the version with no answers from you ... so that is why I asked the question.
If you were looking for a version and didnt know where to find it ... Im sure you would love getting a response like this? ... And I have flashed and rooted my tablet and sgs1 ... for this specific build on the s2 I didnt see it ... so perhaps if its not the biggest amount of brain-drain for you ... please could you provide a link maybe? ... It would others find it fast too ... you do have an extensive number of posts ... and a 1st page find for a new version just helps people looking for it .... what you think?
Me provide a link after that little tanty ? Um, how about no ? Not going to happen.

I actually have been searching on the build number and have not found any answer on it. I wouldn't have asked the question if I found the answer. Previously I have found all the answers for my tablet and sgs1 here with no need to ask as I could fine relevant version to flash them and root them. If I don't need to talk to anyone about it I wouldnt ... just with so many versions of phones even the sgs1, it is a risk to get hold of the wrong versions.
Anyway .. too much tıme and effort wasted already just writing the comments on this question. Thanks for showing interest

I have the same exact setup as you. Were you able to find out how to root your phone? I search all through that CF-Root thread but can't find a matching kernel... maybe we should try to do a request in that thread for XXKL4?

Hi .. yes I got it sorted (but not wıth the help or direction from the guys above) ... I now have the g version rooted and flashed (althought I have the yellow triangle on boot - Im not worrıed about that, root more ımportant). If you have pre v 2.3.6 then you can root it without using odin. Odin causes the triangle. If you have not udpated to yet and are on 2.3.5 or earlier let me know as there is ways to root and get the Clockworkmod Recovery loaded without using Odin, thus not increasing the binary counter.
I also have the international version which was pre 2.3.6 so I got that rooted etc all fine this way and then flashed it (from the internal SD to ICS 4.0.3 without increasing the counter).

Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately my phone is brand new (1 day old) and I installed the latest Samsung OTA update already (stupid, I know) so I am on 2.3.6 with kernel 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #2 and build XXLB1.
I want to get an ICS ROM running ASAP but I'm only familiar with HTC phones and not Samsung root methods. I'm not sure if I can use SuperOneClick or if I have to use Odin (and which kernel to use?) ... there's a lot of info out there but it's really hard to find someone with my exact model/rev and I don't want to brick my new baby!
It sounds like I should use Odin, but could you explain what kernel you used when you rooted? Thanks very much!!
EDIT: Not sure this matters as far as which kernels I can flash, but my baseband is I9100GXXKL4.

Hi ... I had the same concerns ... 1 day old and how not to brick it ... In the end I just decided to go at it and get it sorted. I downloaded the following ROM to flash with ODIN (I9100GXWKJ2_I9100GODDKJ2_INU.zip) ... you can get it from hotfile.com (http://hotfile.com/dl/147046000/0697ece/I9100GXWKJ2_I9100GODDKJ2_INU.zip.html) ... I loaded it in Odin (phone in download mode) using the PDA option (if the zip has a password, just use the following as the password: samfirmware.com) ... completed and phone is back ... go back to download mode and get the following kernel (MyGKernelV1.1.1_CWM5 i9100G) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1327509
Enjoy
just sharing on how we can remove the yellow triangle on boot of G s2..
>Assuming you have already rooted with any rooted kernel (ex: myGkernel/superatmos kernel)
>Run “HC-ktool”. Tap "Dump current kernel", then Tap "Reboot to Download Mode"
>When in Download Mode, start Odin, connect the phone and flash any stock Samsung kernel. Phone will reboot itself after that.
>Run “ktool” again Tap "Flash kernel from /sdcard/zImage" (zimage should be the zimage file of ur rooted kernel...copy this zImage in sdcard), then Tap "Reboot"...done
thanks for the info everyone, unfortunately i had issues with my gs2g (mp3 player skipping, gps not locking location well) and so i returned it. it's a beautiful phone but i thought it was too expensive for me to deal with any issues. now i'm hoping for the HTC one x soon! b
best wishes !

He wasn't rude, he was just trying to tell that you didn't give as much info as it was needed.
About your problem, download flashtool and download .ftf (I suggest Nordic region) and flash it. Everything can be found in dev sections, or in sticky thread in general section.

Flash it with correct firmware, get the fw's from sticky thread in general section.
btw. edit thread title to reflect your problem, as current one is so generic that it can be used on 90% threads here

What is the filename of the file you are flashing to your phone?
Did flashtool reported any error or everything went well with flashing?
---------- Post added at 09:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:41 AM ----------
Why are you sending PM's, we have forum, there are smarter people here and will solve your problem faster if more of us discuss about it.
First you said that you have problems with keyboard, then you said you followed this instructions: http://theunlockr.com/2012/10/08/how-to-root-the-sony-ericsson-xperia-neo-mt15i/
On those instructions I only see how to root your phone, which includes flashing MT11i kernel.
Now hear this. If you said all this info before, you would get your solution by now.
Flashing MT11i kernel on MT15i gives that error. And I would have told you that if you gave all the info you have. And no need to go around the web for instructions, everything you need is here, if you had checked this (sticky) thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678690 you would noticed that flashing only kernel cause errors.
For start flash your phone with correct fw, to solve your initial question, then go on next exhibitions
And please use forum, it will be faster
nah sorry for all the issues and problems im done forget this thread please and delete my account im not doing this.time for a new phone.peace

i know their many roms out there and im just looking for something more recent, faster and that battery might last a little longer, in terms of roms what is good out there at the moment?
Thanks
This should help. Its a sticky topic at top of this forum.

You need to install and check all the ROMs for yourself...
Everyone has a different preference and view point of things...best ROM for somebody else isn't the same for you..
Plus it depends on how and what tweaks and mods you want on the phone...
(I like the lockscreen torch/Overclocking)

Yes and that was already explained in the link I gave him directly after his question. I dont see the point in bumping thread just to repeat what is already said in 2nd post of topic.
