Baseband is your radio/modem. You can flash in recovery another. Just find that is best for you!

It remains the same(because many devs don't include it in main from) flashing a Odin rom changes it...

As you are using cm9, go to cm9 thread you will have the list of available modems, download it and flash via cwm

How do you have CM9 working without ICS bootloaders? Unless you flashed the resurrection edition?

[Q] ICS Root? Want to install Cyanogenmod

So i have a Samsung Galaxy S II and earlier today i were thinking about rooting it.
So i were preparing for the root and installed the Samsung drivers.
When it had installed it popped up a message about new firmware(ICS).
So i installed it, and i dident like it.
So i were wondering, is there a root for ICS 4.0.3 yet?And if it is, can i install Clockworkmod and Cyanogenmod 7 (or 9) on it?
Thanks in advance!
(Sorry for my bad english,Im from Norway )

You don't need root to flash a ROM. Just enable usb debbuging and reboot in recovery, then flash whatever rom you want.
Easiest way to root your phone is to flash Siyah kernel (my opinion )
Cm7 is Gingerbread, Cm9, which is still nightly release, is 4.0.4. Cm9 comes rooted (I'm not sure about Cm7 though, but I think it's rooted too).
I personally use Cm9 with Siyah kernel because of the CWM and better recovery menu. Otherwise Cm9 comes with integrated Rom manager, so Siyah is not necessary.

YES CF Root for one
Root + CWM .

And if it is, can i install Clockworkmod
See above link .
and Cyanogenmod 7 (or 9) on it?
That depends upon the instructions posted for the roms .

Cyanogenmod 7 is based on Gingerbread and it's the only STABLE Cyanogenmod for Galaxy S2 so far.
Cyanogenmod 9 is still in nightly release ("nightly" means beta (or alpha?) release: may contain bugs, crashes, not working/included apps etc.) and it's based on ICS 4.0.4.
-------------------------------------------------------
Cyanogenmod 9 comes with integrated ROM Manager which is practically CWM with other name and more functions. With ROM manager you can backup/restore current rom, partition SD card, download and install ROMs AND you can flash latest clockworkmod recovery from where you can flash all kernels/roms/updates that you want (with clockworkmod recovery I mean the volume up-home button-lock button thing It changes the default recovery and gives you more options lol)

Lol. Chris Walken for the win. To the op-these threads are discouraged. Just try for yourself. We try not to compare Roms here as everybody like something different.

Kinda Noobie here
hello,
2 month back i brought unlocked i777 from ebay. It got rooted and unlocked with Android version 2.3.4, baseband i777UCKH7 and kernel version 2.6.35.7.
It got super user app (so i think its rooted). But the CMW is not installed. i checked in recovery mode (it show some android recovery).
So now i m thinkin of installing the latest AOKP ROM (with siyah kernel) but not sure wat to flash first.
should i root again first (root + CWM) then install AOKP. then change the kernel.
or root then kernel then AOKP ?
also i m confuse which root method should i use for installing CWM in gingerbread .

Please make sure you're running a safe kernel otherwise you'll brick your phone.
i read that guide thread .. as my phone got Superuser, i m using the Mobile odin method [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1311081].
As i m on gingerbread, i need to use gingerbread kernel to install clockwork model. i.e Entropy512's Daily Driver or Siyah 2.6.
but i wanna intall ICS rom , so after installing siyah 2.6 should is flash with latest AOKP on it ? will siyah 2.6 support the latest AOKP ?

Install kernel with cwm.
Boot to recovery and install aokp rom
Done
Every rom install contains a kernel that works with the rom. Doesn't matter what you had before.

When you flash the custom kernel with CWM, you can then user CWM to flash whichever ROM you wish. I.E. AOKP

[Q] Flashed Wrong Kernel?

Hey Guys,
i was very stupid today...
I flashed my kernel and didn't write down the original kernel version....
I can get into download mode and CWM.
The device starts until the yellow triangle and then its it...
Now i am not sure which is the right kernel for me to get my device back started.
It's a german phone, not brandet and i baught it in august 2012.
This is the Product Nr: GT-I9100RWADBT
Dont know if i can do anything with it...
I tryed
CF-Root-SGS2_XW_DBT_LPI-v5.5-CWM5
CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEN_LP7-v5.4-CWM5 and
CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-PROPER-v5.4-CWM5
but all didnt worked for me.
I tryed the search, but i didn't find anything close matching mine problem yet.
If there is i am sorry is didnt saw it yet.

My Phone did the official Samsung update to 4.1.2 the last week.
So it runs 4.1.2 and its a i9100
OK forget about this kernels go for syiah5+ or dorimanx 8+ they give u root and some customization this 2 kernel are most worth flash kernels but personally I would go for dorimanx remember on stock 4.2.1 use 8+ not 9+ good luck
