I'm lost, I9100p or I900p?
If it's I900p, what phone is that?
If it's I9100p flash any I9100 ROM / kernel.
If you don't wanna lose NFC, there's a couple of threads with a NFC enabler laying around here somewhere.

i guess it's about a i9100p
don't think a i900p exist....he wouldn't be posting here
and yes - any kernel would do the job (as gastonw says)

This is the jelly bean ERA, gingerbread is long gone.
Unzip that and you'll get a single file containing Code, CSC & modem.

Just wanted to thank you Gaston for all your help
I updated the jellybean rom, then rooted it as i had to unlock it again due to the rom change lol
now it works fully, still have the sound issue tho so maybe the incall speaker is kaput, i will replace this and see if that makes any difference
thanks again for taking the time to help!
