Going back to basic(s).... - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody.
I have rooted my phone , by pushing CWM.zip + SU+busybox.zip to my sdcard and installed those 2.
I have then installed various ROMS.
I have tried :
[ROM][4.1.1][JB] R25's JB AOKP Preview Builds 5.1 [16/8/12] -1st JB AOKP ROM *UPDATE*
[Rom]GT-I9100 Resurrection Remix JB v3.0.4[16/08][AOKP JB PRE](AROMA+OTA)
both very nice ROMS worked 100% thanks to developers.
But now I really need help going back to the state when I bought it.
The important letters I think is XXLPS these letter I have now.
And this letters was there before root and ROM installation. XWLPG.
I am located in Norway.
Please help.
I am guessing I have to do something in Odin and have read what to do there. But
I am not sure which and what file to flash with it. Can anyone help.
Currently running 4.1.1 on Resurrection Remix.
Want to go back to the start.
I have only followed instructions when I rooted phone and installed ROM so I haven't got so much clue what do to reverse it.
Kindly regards
Vidar.

well XXLPS is the baseband(Modem) u had earlier on stock build of XWLPG so goto 'Sammobile.com' or search for XWLPG stock firmware and flash the same using ODIN. for odin flash u can google for lot of Videos regarding the same on Youtube.

Well first of visit www.sammobile.com and go to firmware then choose appropriate firmware (4.0.3 recommended) then download triangle away and reset flash counter. This will wipe away any evidence that you ever rooted your phone! After that enter download mode and flash the .tar file you got from sammobile, using odin, simply plug in your phone, click PDA and choose the file you got and press start. After that's done reboot to recovery and wipe data/factory reset. There! your phone is now like you just bought it!

UPDATE-
I flashed a 613 MB big file I9100XWLPG_I9100XXLPX_I9100NEELP4_HOME.tar.md5 via ODIN in download mode.
Rebooted and cleared cache and dalvik + factory reset.
Now my phone is like untouched. I have never had any yellow triangles, but shall I do anything with the "Flash Counter Reset " ? It says only for experts My phone is now back to 4.0.3. ICS and I had 4.1.1 JB Resurrection Remix.

You can check your flash counter by booting into download mode and checking custom binary, if it says no then all evidence that you ever rooted your phone has gone!

try reinstall a stock rom, check if everythings is fine then reinstall CM9
Thnx for the quick response
I think the problem isn't cm9, when I was trying to install the from I couldn't boot to the cwm recovery because I forgot to root my device. Then I rooted my s3 with cf something root kit and then my signals were gone. I have the international version so my phone should be factory unlocked so I thought I should install cm anyway cuz that might solve the problem. But it didn't. I really like cyanogenmod and don't want to revert back to crappy touchwizz . The problem was there before installing cm9 but after rooting my phone.
Please any help. I really need to use my phone.
Thnx

You should reinstall everything from the scratch mate, so revert your device at stock (using odin), then flash the correct [email protected] kernel and finally if everything is working flash cm9.
Edit: if your device is locked i think you can unlock it easily, search in the forum you can find out everything you need for this.

sorry mate ..
i am a complete noob, i dont know how to revert to stock rom, stock recovery and unroot my device
Download original firmware for your phone from sammobiles and flash it using odin. If is good then root it again and flash cm9.

Okay,
I have downloaded my firmware file but i noticed that i need three tar files for the flashing precess through ODIN but i downloaded only 1 file *.tar.md5
no clue now what to do
Update: I tried to extract the file using splitfus but it didnt work.
Update 2: Okay now I have Installed my stock firmware and it seems to be working now.. But should I risk installing the CM9 again ?

- launch Odin
- load that ONE FILE on PDA section
- put your phone in download mode (volume down+home+power)
- connect the phone to computer, wait for drivers to be installed and ODIN to find your phone (you will see a message in Odin)
- click start
- don't touch the phone until it's done. It will boot alone
Also, it might be a good idea to wipe data / reset to factory before and after flash.
You could find all this info with google ....
On the topic, I have a similar issue. My phone was factory unlocked , and got locked after flashing latest stock firmware. Downgrading didn't solved anything. I am searching the forums right now, but it seems like all fixes are dated.
If anyone could point me in the right direction, it will be appreciated.
Thx
Hey rsndetre,
Thnx for the post, but sorry I already did that and it worked ..
Here are the method I used to get back my device back to normal and got my sim card working and again reinstalled cm9
1- Downloaded Toolkit from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703488
2- Flashed Stock Boot Image
3- Flashed Stock Recovery Mode
4- Downloaded stock firmware from http://fus.nanzen.se/
5- Flashed stock firmware using Odin (your method above)
6- Rooted the device again (using odin and CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4)
7- Downloaded and placed cm9 and google apps package in SDCARD
8- Installed Rom Manager from Play Store.
9- Downloaded and Installed ClockWorkMod from rom manager and booted to recovery mode using RomManager
10- Then factory resetted, formatted the cache and installed the CM9 and GAPPS V11
Then my phone was good to go.
My phone is up and running, thanks rsndetre, Arsaw and TecQuality for your replies. I appreciate your time
Thanks

Phone Messed up after installing custom ROM

Hello all,
i tried installing the JellyBam ROM last night and things went ugly somehow. I had installed the good old CM10 a weak ago with ClockWorkMod! it was running perfectly except i had antenna/reception problems so i thought i give another rom a shot. followed every step of the guide, booted into recovery and the installed the JellyBam ROM.
After that my phone never loaded pass the Samsung Galaxy S II (with yellow triangle) screen and for some reason i can not load into recovery anymore! loading to download mode works fine. I did some searching on the web and some people where suggesting installing ClockMod once again, but this did not help either!
i was wondering am i doing the right thing or my phone is just dead!

4. Fatory reset.
5. Reboot.
5. Enjoy.
6. Thank me :highfive:
Thanks a lot Sourabh007, that worked! and thanks Sun90 for the tip! yea i was really sleepy and made a really stupid mistake of installing i9100G ROM on my international SII (yea i know, dont say anything)!
But i followed through the instructions of Sourabh007 and it worked perfectly! Installed JellyBam AOKP, seems to be a little heavier and slower than CM10. and unfortunately just like CM10 im still having very poor antenna/reception most of the time. so i have to fix that somehow.
BTW im loving the Siyah kernal, going to give the dual boot option a try later.

[Q] Help me please.. Galaxy s2 stuck on boot logo...

I am a newbie from Nepal. I dont have much knowledge of flashing. A week ago i tried to flash CMW recover while i was in resurrection remix JB rom. Till then i am not able to start my phone because it freezes at "Samsung Galaxy S2" logo... Now i dont know the CSC, PDA and kernel version of my mobile. So please help me solve my problem, how can i make it work?
Boot into recovery (Turn phone off. Then hold home/power/volume up) & do a wipe/factory reset. Or if you have a recent backup (or any backup) restore that from recovery. I've done this a couple of times over the past few mths when my phone has spontaneously bootlooped.
didnt help

In that case flash any stock rom you like. I gather you'll be going back to a custom rom pretty quickly in any case (?) so it doesn't matter. Whatever you do tho, do not flash a PIT.

All I can do is download a rom which is in zip format, but i know odin does not support .zip but it supports .tar, so how can i download rom in .tar, also does it matter if I flashed the rom which is not meant for my region?(I mean I dont know my phone's PDA and I am not able to decide which firmware to download since every firmware has its own specific PDA)... Yes, I'll be going back again to custom rom after I make it work...haha
AFAIK a rom for another country wont break your phone, but be careful with 4.0.4 roms because of the brickbug

go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3 and choose the stock or even another stock rom you wish, download it.
Boot into download mode and flash the single .tar file through odin, flashing instructions can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
PD: if the downloaded file is .zip and not .tar, just extract the zip and u'll get the .tar

He means don't do a wipe/factory reset from recovery while you're running that kernel. Once you switch to a custom kernel you can relax tho.

Parameter is incorrect error can be caused by either of two reasons
1 . something is wrong with the file you downloaded try re downloading
2.Kies is interfering with Odin, terminate Kies from the background by using the task manager.

If you want to go from stock ICS to stock JB you have no need to root.
All you do is simply reboot into download mode (Power on using Volume Up + Home + Power) then flash the JB md5 file via ODIN.
Once you have flashed the file you may find system wont boot into rom (this is normal). Just reboot into download mode and flash latest version of Siyah kernel (.tar file) which will be Siyah v6 beta4 (or above). This will give you cwm recovery, better battery life, root access, SU etc.
Go and have a look at some topics/search etc, All the info you need is already on here and if you try and take some shortcuts you may run into problems or even possibly brick your device so take some time and learn.
PS. Yes the eMMc brick bug is part of stock 4.0.4 kernel so just dont go into stock recovery. You can also brick device by your flash process getting interrupted so make sure you have drivers installed correctly (install kies) and taht you're not running any other programs while flashing and also that you have at least 55% battery.
It's a very good thing you are reading before getting the bad boy you intend to flash.
See the thing about this bug is when you make a back up, wipe things up from the recovery, and flash via oding. Once you do the wipes, you are kinda screwed.
Now, you got a couple of choices here:
1) Your device arrives with 4.0.4 ICS, flash siyah kernel (I'll get you off the hook).
2) Arrives with 4.0.3, you are good to go, no danger.
3) You can try mobile odin, it flashes with its own kernel and, apart from being fast, it's easy.
4) If you get a gingerbread version, you good as well.
That being said, I'd advice you to play with it for a couple of days instead of flashing right away.
Check out some videos, read something about ExynosAbuse (It'll get you rooted with one click) and revolv around the q&a section looking for "not to do list".
good luck and remember, keep on reading.

What am I doing wrong?

Hey,
I have since become a S3 ... I have rooted it and wanted to play another Rome.
First I flashed my Carbon ... that was wonderful, but I had no wifi. Then I tried another Rom (with aroma installer). When I had WiFi, but since I have the menu did not like it and it was me too many Samsung Apps.
Now I have flashed me the Resurrection Remix, but the S3 boots constantly new to the CWM.
The same I have with CM11.

You need to install exactly like below don't miss any steps
-Installation-
1.- Wipe data / factory reset (mandatory if you coming from STOCK OR 4.2.X version or another ROM)
2.- Install the Main ROM
3- install gapps
4.- When you're back on recovery go to Advanced
5.- Wipe Dalvik Cache
6.- Fix Permissions
7.- Wipe Cache Partition
8.- Reboot
If it still not working flash TWRP recovery and use that to flash the rom
Hey,
I just did it. Then came the Samsung logo, phone restarts and I'm back in the CWM.
Have just flashed TWRP reboot (via CWM) Recovery and but still have CWM.
Grrrrrr ...... what for now
Better download official firmware from Sammobile and install thru Odin. Then Root and carry on with your favorite custom rom.
Yes I agree with KSKHH if problem still there return to stock with odin and start again..

Hey,
I have now taken me this firmware:
I9300XXUGML2_I9300DTMGML2_I9300BOUGMK3_HOME.tar
Odin started, specified in the PDA tar file, made ​​my S3 in the download mode, USB cable ran ... it was detected and was also flashed. Now I sit for at least 10 minutes and nothing happens.
The Samsung logo always changes its color and the LED on the top left light blue.
