I am attempting to flash the cognition ROM w/ninphetamine kernel for the i9100 onto my i777. I was wondering how I would go about changing the modem within BEFORE flashing. Assuming I have only worked with ROMS and never kernels, an answer assuming I don't really know anything about unpacking and repacking a kernel would be great! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Serendipity 8 isn't letting me make calls.. bad modem?
Flashed Serendipity 8, and it works fine. Except for one big problem. The modem is 1900XXKH3 and I got a feeling this isn't the right one. I know there is a flashable update around here some where. Anyone got a link?
Found the link..
Download Entropy512's Return/Unbrick to Stock, Kernel + non-rooted system package from here
Download that zip, and flash the modem.tar file under the "phone" browse in ODIN and that should fix thing so your phone now works with Serendipity 8. Probably will work the same with other international ROMS.
Find all the good stuff here: Which is the Samsung Galaxy S2 recovery thread.

First of all, this is the thread I'm referring to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233328
Am posting here because I don't have enough posts to reply to the thread. Really doesn't make sense that the forum requires 10 posts before I can reply there.
I'm really confused with all the links on the OP. The instructions aren't clear enough for a noob like me. Would appreciate any help here.
Basically I want the fastest/smoothest experience, so no TW for sure, and OC if possible. Am not really sure what deodex does for me so not sure if I need deodex or broodcomb...
So correct me if I'm wrong here.. Never done this before so I'm just picturing it in my head(getting my tab tomorrow so just wanna make sure I get things right) this is how I should do it..
1. I will need to download this and install through odin no matter what... Hmm what does CSC: CPW and XEU mean anyway?
Stock Rom [ODIN] special for XDA Members only ( CSC: CPW and XEU )
2. This is where I get lost. Do I choose between these 3? If yes, what's the differences between them? And where's broodcomb?
CWM KH7ROOT
Stock Deodexed Rom special for XDA Members only
CWM Rom by mabalito
3. Install the non tw update/ themes/etc..
4. where in all these do I fit in the installing of pershoot's kernel? Can OC be done only with pershoot kernel? Does 3G work with pershoot's kernel?
I appreciate any help you can give me. perhaps someone can do me a favour and post this up in the thread so that others can answer it.
Thanks
Ryan
any kind soul out there? I just need someone to help me copy paste my post over to the thread so that others can answer it.
I'm running the stock KH7 rom and it's much better then the KG9 that i had before.
As far as i know, there is no rom for p7500 that doesn't have Touchwiz. In that thread there is just a theme that looks like vanilla Honeycomb, so it doesn't give any performance boost.
Besically you need to install the stock KH7 first (using odin) and then install custom recovery if you want to root or use other modifications posted there.

I've got my tab now and have been messing with it for awhile without much success. I tried this...
1. reboot into cwm recovery
2. install deodexed stock rom via cwm
3. install cwm non-tw (from the thread)
and that resulted in a reboot-loop. So I can't go straight to cwm and have to install stock using ODIN first? okay help me out here a little, I'm still not sure what or where ODIN is...
okay I managed to get it to work after many tries. I used odin(which i think i didn't need to).. then installed the deodexed stock rom, pershoot's kernel, and non-tw..
Like i already said, first you need to install stock KH7 using odin.
Glad you got it working.
I need help in flashing this rom to my att sgh-i777. Im new at this and i don't want to brick my phone. If anybody can give me a detail (link, downloads) list step by step it would be greatly appreciated. Im running on Unnamed rom v1.1 right now. thanks a lot

If you're on Unnamed, you already have CWM, so all you need to do is reboot to recovery, then follow the steps given in the Hellraiser post.
Keep in mind - this is in essence a "mod" for I9100 ROMs that lets them run on our device - it's not a "mod" for Unnamed or any other I777 stock-derived ROM. You could flash it on Unnamed, but it'll do nothing because it replaces files with ones that are already there.
Since you are worried about bricking, you may want to stick with ROMs that are confirmed working in the Hellraiser thread, such as SensatioN or VillainROM. (CheckROM Revolution has been used but some people report wifi problems.) The only way to hardbrick one of our devices is to flash a bad bootloader, so if the ROM has no bootloaders (It is very rare for ROMs to include these), you basically can't permabrick.
thanks a lot, can you tell me where i can find the sensation rom?

you can find it in the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 Forum in Android Development, there will be a post, just like how you got unNamed except in a different forum..
I'm going to add links to ROMs I've tested later.
ok so i found sensation rom, i went into cwm did a backup, then wipe/factory reset. Installed sensation from my sd card. right before i was about to flash sensation i got a call and notice i couldn't here anything. could this because I'm using a I9100 ron on a sgh-i777? Helppp I'm half way to hell i don't want to go back to unnamed
also when i flash in Rommanager do i flash as a att sg2 or i9100?
Flash in CWM, don't use ROM Manager. Use the three-finger trick from the CWM kernel thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285823 - the procedure for entering CWM is the same for ALL CWM kernels for our device.
And how did you get a call while in recovery? You're supposed to flash the ROM, then flash Hellraiser without rebooting out of recovery. In your case, you should be able to just go back into recovery and flash Hellraiser. SensatioN might include an older CWM version (4.x), but that should still be able to flash Hellraiser.

did you read anything in the hellraiser thread? or anything in this thread for that matter?
hellraiser is a MOD to make the i9100 rom work....if you didnt flash it after flashing the rom, then your flash is INCOMPLETE
you shouldnt be using ROM Manager at all either....you need to do some reading here
Hey guys
Sorry for the noob question but I want to double check something before I accidentally brick my phone.
I rooted my phone and flashed the Resurrection Remix ICS 9.7 rom and have had a play with it for a few days and want to go back to stock.
It's using a custom kernel and obviously custom rom.
To flash it back to stock using Odin, how do I get a stock official ICS kernel for an official ICS rom (such as one that you download directly from the Samsung server using CheckFus)? Also does anyone know of a guide that specifies exactly how to do this?
Thanks
You can extract the kernel (zImage) from the rom tarball you download via Checkfus with any program that allows you to work with tars (IZarc, 7Zip, WinRar, etc). No guide necessary, easy as. Open the tar file with said program, find the zImage, extract it. Done.

Need ROM to roll back to
Just got a i9100 with 2.3.4:
PDA:I9100XWKH4
Phone/Baseband (modem): I9100XXKH3
CSC: I9100OXXKH2
I don't find this rom on the roms page, and I understand I need it to be on my PC ready to flash with Odin, in case by flash to 2.3.6 doesn't work out (that's the only way to roll back, right?)
Where can I find this rom?
Thanks!
I got a Telus Note today, and of course first thing I do is try to root it. But I didn't read the directions well enough so wound up flashing a GB kernel and softbricking my phone.
I couldn't find a stock ICS kernel, so I downloaded a stock rom and extracted the kernel. If anyone needs it, here it is in an odin flashable tar so you don't have to download and flash 500megs of firmware...
(Hope this isn't in the wrong forum, if it is let me know and I'll move it)

Hello do you still have the original ROM or the link to it? I'd like to flash back to complete stock. Thanks!
[SOLVED]
Hello! I have been rooting and flashing roms for a while now, and after sticking with a cm mod for a while i decided it was time for a change. I foolishly didn't back anything up and just flashed a rom to check it out. I have a Galaxy s3 19300 unlocked version (i have it on a plan for cricketwireless). I cannot get odin to work for me to flash a new custom rom, a stock rom, or even begin trying to flash. Odin either gives me the nanad write error or the program stops responding. I have samsung drivers installed and really need some help. I'd appreciate any help on getting me one step closer to a working phone. Thanks!

Try with a pit file and other version of odin.If it still persists then use cwm to flash touchwiz based rom.

Could you link me with the correct pit file, I haven't been able to find one for my Galaxy S3 8Gb 19300. And I have tried all versions of odin so far so Ill give each one a shot when you give me the link for the pit or I eventually find one. Thanks for the fast response by the way.

Another question, should I be flashing the pit file (if you or I can find one) with a custom/stock rom or without a rom. Thanks in advance.

yea its 16 gb just 11 gb available and 8 gb available after firmware its stupid but w/e. anyway i got it to work by formatting sd card which got rid of corrupted custom rom and made it just a normal stock bootloop so i flashed stock firmware for a random region and then cf auto rooted and flashed a custom rom. All good now but ty for the help i wouldnt have looked into pit files which led me to the stock file and made me try it. I guess if ur willing to format sd card it gets a lot easier.
not sure how to close a thread but i guess this should be good enough for now. [CLOSED]
