anyone have any idea how to fix this please ?

Try flashing 2.1 over again with flashtool.
That will delete all data and rooting status.
Keep posting if you need help.
Have you used flashtool before?

yes... i tried every single things with my phone (2.2-2.3)
i used to flash a lot but then i decided with the original firmware is the best
but i also having problems with other version..

My guess to your problem is that you had the wrong baseband for the 2.2/2.3 ROM you were running. Rooting shouldn't cause a reboot in your phone.

but this is from stock version.... how could it be wrong @@

[Q] Newbie - help wit firmware SGS2 latest

Hi all,
I am aware that there are some other posts about newbie and firmware questions, but I guess since I upgraded to the latest firmware - hope it is okay to ask the question.
I have recently upgrade the Android to 2.3.4 XXKG6 - but now when I connect to Kies it says that the firmware is not upgrade-able. did I do something wrong?
What is the most stable,useable, efficient firmware available?
my phone is :
Model:GT-I9100
Android Version 2.3.4
BaseBand: I9100xxKG6
Kernel : 2.6.35.7-I9100KG6-CL425236
Build Number: GINGERBREAD .XXKG6
It will be much appreciated if I someone can point me to the right direction on how to do the installation and where I can get the files.
Thanks again
i think its saying not upgradeable as thats the latest software isnt it? i believe it is so it is simply saying there isnt any further update CURRENTLY
xxkg5 was the official firmware that is upgradeable with kies.
xxkg6 is a custom that is cooked here at xda.
Cooked firmware does not work with kies as it is not recognized that is why you have to use either odin or cwm.
There is a warning at the beginning of the xxkg6 thread that tells you that kies will not work after installation.
Kies will pretty much never upgrade you from an odin flashed firmware, most of the time it will not recognise it as a valid version due to mixing and matching files.
Though, by the time you are odin flashing you will have gotten fed up by how slow firmware updates come anyway
But yes, KG6 is the current "best" stock firmware available.
Thank you guys.
This is a steep learning curve for me at the moment so bare with me
So, currently I have the latest Custom Firmware, is this correct?
Another questions:
* when I use the ODIN to flash the firmware to KG6 the option of "repartition" is not ticked. Do I need to re-flash it again and "ticked" the repartition option?
is there any difference with the "Repartition" option ticked and NOT ticked?
Thanks again
Sometimes a flash may carry a file called a pit file.If so the re-partition box will be automatically checked otherwise never under any circumstances should you check that box if you are not using a pit file.If it is needed the instructions will let you know otherwise never.If you are on XXKG6 and all works fine there is no need to do anything else unless you want to flash a ROM or something.That's up to you.
Sorry to be a big pain here but I am wondering if it is possible to down grade / RESTORE to the original firmware I had? (incase I want to)
it was
Android version is 2.3.3
build number is z2KG2
kernel is 2.6.35.7-I9100
I should have asked this before I did anything else.
thanks again

I did the stock firmware as stated in the :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
What I did was downloaded the ZSKG2 firmware and using ODIN I flash the firmware. Is this way to do it to go back to official GingerBread 2.3.3?
I didn't do any Root processes.
Do I have to do the Kernel flash as stated in the tutorial? :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
My understanding is that I do not need to do the Kernel unless I want to do Root. am I correct?
*** Reason for trying to go back from 2.3.4 XXKG6 is because my WIFI signal does not look as strong as the 2.3.3 (let me know if this is incorrect)
Thanks
kernal flash is to bring to stock that mean it removes the root only.
firmwares do not change gingerbread versions from 2.3.3. to 2.3.4 or 2.3.4 to 2.3.3..
you need an offical carrier branded version that does a wipe of your phone.

Hi all,
I have restart My modem and and my Phone but my WIFI is not improving at all, I am just wondering if any one can help on how to put it back to my original firmware
Thanks
Your phone has gone into whats called a boot-loop.To get out of it enter into recovery mode (menu-volume up-power button) wipe cache,wipe cache repartion,factory reset and reboot system.If that doesnt work enter in download mode and repeat the full flash following word for word the instructions and repeat if needed the recovery wipe.
use this to wipe your device and return it 2.3.3, then upgrade back to xkg2.
XWKF1
This package has: PDA:XWKF1| PHONE: XXKE7| CSC:XEUKD1.
This will wipe your device so do a backup!
Download: http://www.multiupload.com/9OTQ8C6O5D
XWKF1 Stock Kernel: Use the ZSKF1 kernel, it's the same kernel.
THANK YOU ALL!!!
I got out of the boot loop using : recovery mode (menu-volume up-power button) wipe cache,wipe cache repartion,factory reset and reboot system
Thanks Cooza for the info. I got to 2.3.3 now
Now that I am back to starting point again. I would like to hear from you guys of the plus and minus of upgarding (which I should have asked in the first place)... I am learning the hard way...
Thank you for your generosity and patient explaining to me.
Thanks

[Q] Kies doesn't recognize firmware

Hi,
Kies doesn't know what firmware my phone, how can I solve this problem without having to root the phone or change roms?
Thanks
Rooting is not required to change ROMs.
The most important thing is, what ROM have you on your phone?
If you have a ROM that is not a standard ROM (stock or branded) then Kies will not recognise it.
Its a stock rom.
Something got messed up with the last update, and since then kies won't recgonize the firmware..
What should I do then?
By the way, the new update is 2.3.4?
thanks
If something got messed up, then reflash the ROM you can use Odin and use the stock ROM in the ROM Developers section.
maybe an older version of Kies might help..try searching the forum cause yesterday the same topic as your asking came up and few suggested rolling back the Kies version...new one is having problems i heard
dont know if this help you but worth a try
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285544
Will reflashing the rom delete all the phone's data?
Thank you both

if your talking about apps and stuff i cant remember to be honest cause i rarely use odin but i think it does a complete wipe so i say yes you will lose data..
but as the guy above said try reflashing a stock rom and once your back up and running we can take the next step...
word of advice...2.3.5 officially has not been released in the UK..if i did not root i would be only updated to 2.3.4 the last few weeks...i do all my updating through custom roms or even by Intratech thread were he has all the latest releases..Kies for me is a no goes anymore....
so do your reading and if you ever need any hand send me a message and if i can help i will

You welcome.
i remember when i tried to change kernels from CF-root thread i could not get kies to recognize it...so tried to find the one that matched the closest and region i am and bam it worked..updated my firmware through kies and that was the end of it...but if you use a kernel to root and try and to update it through kies you lose your root...so my advice find a kernel that matches your firmware then by all means go ahead root and try flashing roms...you can always go back on stock if you want...
but do your reading and like i said you want a hand if i can i will help you
Why kies doesnt recognize my firmware
Yesterday i flashed my SGSII with I9100XWKI8 2.3.5 firmware, before that i had I9100XXKH3 2.3.4. Both Firmwares are European i believe. In both cases my Kies do not recognize it.
i installed the stock firmware no root at all
Is it because i live in South America?

Hi, I'm new here, so sorry for my question.
I just update my firmware with kies the root disappeared. I've got my phone rooted from the stock. Now I want to update to 2.3.5 and I need to root again, but I can't find the insecure kernel I9100BVKH1 to root. Can someone help me what to do so I can root my phone? And if I update to 2.3.5 (now I have 2.3.3) kies won't recognize the new firmware? Thanks!

[Q] How to change baseband?

Bought an S2 today. Its a UK Orange phone.
Here's what I did.
Installed an insecure BVKE2 using Odin (original fw was same)
Rooted it, then installed CWM
Installed HyperDroid
Now when the phone booted, it has the HyperDroid rom. However, the baseband still shows the old BVKE2 version.
Does that matter? How do I change that to a newer version? Will I lose root if I flash some firmware via Odin?
Please give a detailed reply

The baseband of your phone is nothing but the modem or the software that communicates with the network. It is usually flashed separately from the ROM unless it is part of the CWM update file.
All modems work differently with networks and you will need to figure out which one is best for your needs. Certain ROM's such as CheckROM come with kitchen apps that allow you to download and apply modems from within the ROM.
Check this link for more info.
Cheers!
Thanks a lot man So I am just gonna flash a new modem and that baseband will change, right?

Look on www.sammobile.com/firmware for samsung firmware.Telia is not listed, also not on check fus. So i think you need this rom http://www.hotfile.com/dl/163050326/a3cfdf1/I9300XXBLFB_I9300NEEBLF1_NEE.zip.html for the Nordic countries. Install Triangle Away (here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494114) first before flashing the rom with Odin to reset the flash counter. After you flashed the rom do a data/factory reset. Check first if the above rom i mentionedis the right one.
Was reading abit more (do not want to be stucked with a broken phone doing my vacation), found this is the I9300XXBLG6 the newest firmware and does it work for us on Telia in Denmark?

Better check on Telia`s website for the latest firmware. You might flash the rom in your post, however you may have to change the modem for better reception.

If i flash the new firmware again, do i need to root the phone again or does it "keep" the root i made earlier... Sorry for all the stupid questions i'm an old iphone fart. :silly:
I tried to search for a sammy wiki or something to become a little more clever about rooting, rom and firmware.
As i see it:
The firmware is kinda the phone bios, doesnt matter if you running a hacked version of the system or not.
The ROM is the "system" it might be stock or cyanogen etc.
You have to have a hacked firmware to be able root your phone.... Or am i totally wrong here?

If you buy Mobile Odin Pro and flash the firmware with that app you will keep root and you don`t loose no data. If you flash with Odin on your pc you will loose root and your user data will probably be deleted.
The firmware i just linked is it not possible to root using that and odin nonpro? Do i have to use an older firmware then?

Flash it with Odin and root with CF Root 6.4. You can flash that firmware although i wouldn`t do it, it is a British Telecom provider rom. I would flash the rom in the 2nd post (nordic countries) wich i recommended. For instructions see m signature.

[Q] Updated & Baseband Version is UNKNOWN!!!

Hi everyone
Today I updated my phone I9100-G to ICS using sammobile Firmwares...
The way I did it:
I was on cMIUI...I flashed old 2.3.6 official firmware (used 3 PIT,PDF and Bootloader files)
then I flashed Official 4.0.4 Using PDF file....
now my baseband version:Unknown and I can't register my device to samsung....
Have I done anything wrong?or what?
Thanks In Advance BTW
Guys Come on...
I need ur help in this one
1) No bumping threads after 90 minutes. This isn't your personal tech support forum.
2) Have you tried reflashing your modem ? When I used Miui GB the baseband used to disappear occasionally. Normally a reboot fixed it (made the baseband reappear), once I had to reflash the modem to fix it.
Also, check your IMEI. If you have the generic one (0044...), then there's your problem. Restore your EFS backup if that's the case.
