[Q] A little help please - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, I got my SGS2 a few days ago and have done CF root, but I am a little confused in regards to the different kernals.
Mine has the KE2 but what would happen if I used a different one like KF1?
Would just like to clear that up as I would like to try and flash a different rom and there doesn't seem to be that many that work with the KE2?
Would it hurt to flash a new rom that was designed for the KF1?
Cheers for any help in advance.
Pete
PS Sorry guys I just posted this in the wrong place. will re-post in the Q&A Section

Just flash the rom your going to use and follow the roms guidelines reffering to kernals..
If its a kf1 rom use kf1 kernal..just so everything is running good.

This is in the Q & A section. I'm sorry if this sounds like I'm being ****, but I was only asking for a suggestion as in "has someone used a rom that they think is good and works well?"
Cant people ask a question anymore without someone jumping down they're throat.

[Q] Need help to help my self :)

Hey, I am new for the Android phones, before my samsung galaxy s2 I had iPhone 4 and things were very simple, now I'm lost in all the terminology and don't know what should I look for in Roms and tweaks. Can some one guide me to some noob Faq tread which will explain the differences in roms andhow can I determine what's best suited for me?
I found the root faq and understood how to install roms, but I can't choose one
Tnx for the help
still need help

If after reading you cannot work out what YOU want then stay with stock until a basic understanding is acquired .
Most users start with the question i want xxx and find a rom to suit rather than ???????????

Flashed Wrong Kernel Maybe? Help Please!

Hi everyone I am Sean, and I just got my ATT SGS2 Yesterday. I think I followed a rooting guide for the non ATT one. The rooting was successful but my WIFI is down with no MAC Address, also I cannot seem to get any custom rom working.
Is there a way to get the Stock ATT Kernel so I can flash and start over. Is there a rooting guide specificly for the ATT version?
Thanks ahead of time!

If u flashed the wrong kernel, go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1294574. Not trying to be mean, but it took me less then a minute of skimming over the Android development section to find this.
Here is the normal rooting guide, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1301682.

Please read *before* you post a question. There is a lot of information available on the XDA I777 forums. Please read all the stickies in the general section, as well as the library sticky in the development section. You've been on xda-developers for several years and made many posts, so you *should* know the forum rules. People here will be glad to help you if you do your part first, but if you are looking to have your hand held, you will probably get little help.

It's just that your questions are already answered in sticky posts in both the general forum and the development forum. I thought it would be better if you wnet and read the answers there rather than taking the time to write the answers all over again.
You clearly didn't read if you went and flashed something not meant for your device without VERY explicit instructions on what is OK to flash and how to flash it.

Actually as I have already explained I did read plenty, I found nothing in the Q&A Section, which is where a solution to a "Question" should be.
And the Guide I followed which was from XDA never once stated that it was only for the International version. Nor did it say it would not work for the AT&T version.
I have been with this community a long time and have never had someone as rude or unhelpful as you. Please do not reply to posts if you are not helping in anyway.
Even though you may have read threads in the Q&A section, a simple search would have pulled up the IMPORTANT threads taht are located in the Dev section that would have answered your questions... and why are they in the Dev section you ask? Because, when flashing anything to your phone like a rom or kernel, its considered DEVELOPMENT and you would have know that if you would have read.
Now go read some more and search. Thread closed.

This is the I9100 forum, nothing to do with your phone.

Another person didn't read the instructions, didn't do their research, and flashed an I9100 modem.
Lucky you didn't hardbrick by flashing stuff without doing your research first.

Same happened to me. Install a UCKH7 modem.
So yer telling him to flash a modem that wont fix his problem, which is the voice calls? Did u see he flashed an ics rom?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
These threads should be closed immediately just on general principle.
Any rom that removes voice is best characterizd as a downgrade, not upgrade.
The only ics Roms that work on our phone is in the ported development threads. Other than that, read read read. Good luck.

An yet it is still a dumb thread that could have been answered with some searching and reading.
I have been searching and reading and cannot find the answer to this problem. If someone could please point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it. I would not consider myself a "noob" as I have flashed 50ish roms on 4 different phones (total). This problem is driving me crazy. Please share your helpful input rather than trolling back. Thank you.

difference between android development and original development is simple. android development is roms basically with a slap on theme on it and original is well original.
read this thread here for better explanation between the two
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1175660
as regarding unlocking bootloaders you do not have to as it is already unlocked..all you have to do is flash a cf-root kernel from chainfires thread.
here are links to help you better
