[Q] How to update to 4.0.4 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I want to update my SGS2 to 4.0.4 I'm on 4.0.3. Which is the best stock room with 4.0.4? I bought it unlocked.
There is my room:
Model: GT-I9100
Android version: 4.0.3
Baseband version: I9100UHLPE
Build number: IML74K.UHLPE
Kernel: stock.
I dont know which region is my room, so I dont know which version of 4.0.4 is better for me.
If I change my region, I will able to receive OTA updates? or via KIES?
Thanks in advance.

Firstly its "Rom" not "Room".
Second, there are plenty of topics on stock roms and how to flash the. Use search or browse button.

[Q] Flashing official samsung firmware on GT-i9100P

Hi,so I've got my first android phone, an UK Samsung galaxy S2 GT-i9100p with NFC, and I want to get rid of all of the orange logos and apps. Can I flash an official GT-i9100 firmware on my GT-I9100P and then enable Signal boost and NFC? If so, can I get a guide on how to do it as I am scared to brick my phone.
here are my phone details:
model number: GT-I9100P
Android version: 2.3.4
baseband version: I9100PBVKI2
kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100PBVKI3-CL608158 [email protected] #2

Thank you. One more question: What firmware should i choose as there are hundreds of them?
I don't really have one to recommend, but generally the latest (non-unstable ICS) would be the most wise choice, which is probably the "frankenstein" XWLA4.
So generally i just download the Frankestein XWLA4 firmware and flash it via Odin? Sorry for asking noobish questions.
Yes thats what will work .

Thank you guys so much! I finally got rid of all that orange crap!

Have a look at this thread, they are all stok roms you need to download Odin and find the rom that fits with your country http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 try the 3rd post for 4.0.3 roms download the correct one and flash via Odin. After flash do a factory reset to clear out any old 2.3.3 stuff. Remember to backup your apps contacts etc first.
XWLPF appears to be the most recent one for you just confirm you are using a Samsung i9100 and not i9100g.

Really need Pro help!! ;(

Hi guys,
I'm new here and I had a problem with upgrading my Galaxy SII version.
I dont know how to upgrade it because now there is new version 4.0.3 or more latest..
But mine version 2.3.6.. ;'(
What I know is using Odin or kies but I'm not sure what version I should use to upgrade it
Can someone teach me how to upgrade it.. plzzzz.....
I live in Malaysia
This is my version:
Model: GT-I9100
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband version: I9100XXKL1

Build number: GT-I9100-eng 2.3.6 GINGERBREAD XXKL1 test-keys
1) Read the Stickies.
2) Get the PC version of Checkfus & use it to download the latest ICS stock rom for your phone model/country/carrier (assuming one is available). This is firmware you'd normally get via OTA update.
3) Flash the rom package you download with Odin following instructions here.

You can upgrade to ICS 4.0.x if you want. I usually flash stock ROM via Odin, this way is faster than Kies. Why do you try it by your self? it's very interesting when you're complete.

What do you mean by nearest version?
And you can very well upgrade to any version you like 4.0 or even 4.1 and also revert back if you are not happy...
The process is same for any version you want to upgrade to...

Hi, have followed your advise, have another question.
Based from my phone info below, can i upgrade it to ICS PDA: I9100DXLP7 and CSC: I9100OLBLP7 from another country. I think XW is not from our region that's why i can't upgrade it via KIES. Now, if i want to upgrade it, i'll use PDA: I9100DXLP7 and CSC: I9100OLBLP7 which is from our region. Can you advise me on this? Thanks in advance...

You can always search this forum for 'stock jb firmwares' like I did, and your questions would have been answered already!
The official jb update for india has not yet been released. But you can dowload firmwares from other regions (available in this forum or at sammobile.com) and flash using Odin..
AFAIK Superbrick bug only affects phones running leaked firmwares, like some 4.0.4 firmwares. If you're updating to an official firmware, there is little chance of being affected by this bug..
Sent from my SGS II
Actully the eMMc brick bug is only on 4.0.4 stock kernel and is only triggered by backup, restore, flash etc in stack Recovery. Bottom line, you don't ave to worry.
And you are flashing via Odin so there isn't any chance of bricking your phone by the brickbug.
