So chainfires KE1 insecure kernel is ok with this?

Edit .. Sorry i should actually read things.. It is.. Lol

What about supercurios auto rooting kernel?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Read the first post. There is no insecure KE1 kernel from what I remember.

Don't know about SuperCurio's kernel and this firmware version, someone will need to test that.
[Galaxy S II General] jangomango:
Right.. Ill get on it..
[Galaxy S II General] amolin32:
And then:

this XWKE7 generic XEU can be root with method post 1?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Maybe, seems to work for me and everyone else posting in this thread and in the others.
[Galaxy S II General] jangomango:
Noooo epic fail.. SC's KE1 autoroot kernel has no effect on this one.. still worth a try..
[Galaxy S II General] kr00t0n:
Not wanting to be a noob, but have I got this right?

Unrooted KE1.

First I flash to the new firmware.

Then do the root with the insecure.

Then flash again with the stock kernel from KE7?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
That's what all the cool kids are doing. :cool:
[Galaxy S II General] manuvaidya:
@Intratech, should i have to flash only the KE7 firmware or should i flash KERNEL file before/after the firmware ????

i am confused why u have posted both kernel & firmware...

i am on KE2 now....

becaus ei tried to flash KE7 KERNEL onto my KE2, but it never progressed. halted at zimage sign in ODIN forever...

thats why i am asking this doubt...
[Galaxy S II General] spark001uk:
Any stock rom from page1 of this thread will be fine, look under Official Firmwares and i suggest XWKF3 which is the latest. Pick XEU version for generic, or CPW if you want the carphone warehouse variant. There's not a lot of difference between the two.
[Galaxy S II General] gurpreet3579:
thanks for these links.

i had one question if i flash official kernel root will be gone?

Why have they released 2.3.3 after a 2.3.4 release? KH is newer than KG but goes back to 2.3.3...?
[Galaxy S II General] Montala:
I have just updated mine to KH3 and it definately shows 2.3.4 ... what makes you think you are still on 2.3.3 ?

Did you do a full factory reset after the flash, and reset your CSC etc?
[Galaxy S II General] marc.knuckle:
one problem i have come across with the kh3 i put on.

when i move apps together into, say, 3 app pages rather than having them spread across 5 app pages they used to stay like that on ke7. now, each time i restart the phone they go back over 5 pages which is rather annoying.
[Galaxy S II General] tibrocks:
I have no problems at all, currently running on kg5 2.3.4 but I wondered why, (according to the first page of this thread) Samsung released the KG5 on 27 July which is 2.3.4 and later, on 5 August the KH1 which is 2.3.3 although is newer..

why getting back to .3?
[Galaxy S II General] _JKay_:
Anyone got XWKH5 for download? I hear its 2.3.4.
[Galaxy S II General] Montala:
Why worry about KH1 now that KH3 is available, which is definately 2.3.4! :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] spark001uk:
To answer your question, the KH1 you refer to is JPKH1, which is an asian market release, it's possibly the case that there's still issues with 2.3.4 in those regions.
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
There is a KH5 that has been released, is this the European build of 2.3.4?

[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
That's because it's not available ANYWHERE!!!

Sounds like you two have driving mode enabled in the voice command app. Start it by double tapping the home button and then cancel the first screen and in the following screen turn off driving mode.

Dunno how to help mate, I don't use a Mac or any other apple products.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:

Hopefully it (KH5 that is) will appear on the first page of this thread any time now then? ;)

My friend just got a SGSII from Claro Brasil and he wants to remove the whole Claro bloatware from it.

Can I just install the latest XXKH or a XXKG firmware on it?

His current phone info is:

CSC: I9000ZTAKE2

I've downloaded the Brazilian UHKE4 from this thread, but the CSC is ZTOKE2. Is it any different from ZTAKE2 CSC?

I want him to keep the exact versions from his phone, in case he needs to send to repair or something.

[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
Use Odin and flash latest KH3.
[Galaxy S II General] Montala:
Because it is the latest 'unbranded' version currently available, which we assume is the one you would like to have.
[Galaxy S II General] spark001uk:
I think with things currently the way they are, none of us should be using their products!! :D :D

anyone... just to reitterate, if i condense my apps in the app drawer to 3 pages by moving them all into 3 pages rather than 5, if i then restart they spread back over 5 in random amounts per page. also i have noticed the buddies widget which i use like a quick dial page lose their respective people that i set them as.

any ideas? is kh5 available yet that may fix this? if so is kh5 the offical uk one maybe?

please try and help me with these guys, thanks, marc

Hi Guys,

Quick question: I have to roll back to stock ROM because of RMA (faulty screen). I have an unbranded phone bought in The Netherlands. I'm not totaly sure which ROM/kernel to pick? Who can help me out?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] Montala:
Did you do a full Factory Reset after your update, and reset the CSC code?

If not it is worth doing so.

KH5 is not available yet unfortunately, but we are hoping it will be before too long! :)
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Well I would assume that since it was bought in the Netherlands then it would have Netherlands firmware but that is just the way I see it.

Hi again,

I'm itching to flash however I don't want to unless I have this kernel backed up. Is it at all possible for anyone to please advise?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
The South African firmwares are not on the server for whatever reason. Looks like you'll have to wait for an update to be released before they will put it on the server.
[Galaxy S II General] ledpepper:
Thanks Intratech,

What a pity, I think it will probably be best though to wait until a kernel is released before I flash over it...
[Galaxy S II General] cjimenez1010:
I got a Vodacom one as well (GT-I9100LKJXFV), I backed everything with nandroid, the only problem is that i coulnd't keep the original kernel but i don't see a problem since i got the same kernel from this forum. The only problem is with the modem, the nandroid doesn't backup it up and i cannot find it any where. Anyone here have any idea where to get it (I9100JCKE1) ?

Also, when the new version comes (2.3.4), which code is going to have? the same one?

Thanks

thx montala. i did a factory reset right before the flash as i was trying to change the csc code to xeu on the old ke7 i was using. then i flashed but no reset after.

i did the factory reset through the cwm recovery and it seems so far that the app drawer problem has gone away as long as i havent spoken too soon. however, the buddies widget which i use a lot still loses its relevant contact. also the battery seems VERY poor nearly running out today in 1 day whereas it lasted 4 days before with light use. it mainly seems to be the display so maybe the auto setting is very poor.

should i go back to kg5?

Quick question:

Just reinstalled the official ROM for RMA. I only flashed the ROM, no kernel. When I rebooted the yellow triangle was gone. Will the Samsung rapeir guy see the phone as fomerly rooted or is this impossible to tell? DO I need a JIG to remove the last evidence? ;)

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
Go back into download mode, it will tell you if any unofficial images were flashed, if you see number there, then you would need a jig to reset that counter....

Hmm, KH3 battery life definitely not as good as KF2.
[Galaxy S II General] marc.knuckle:
agreed. i was at 87% last night when i turned the screen off, no connections on. this morning down to 60 something, just now before charging it is at 20% odd and i havent really done anything with it. even turning most things off, screen to auto brightness etc, thats terrible.

i am currently trying a battery calibrator in case that helps, i have removed 2 widgets off my homescreens as they can apparently suck juice and i'll report back. shouldnt really have to that though just to get more than a days usage.
[Galaxy S II General] shayne77:
I just wanted to run an idea past the "experts".

Ive just come from a Desire and I flashed numerous roms over the past 2 years but generally speaking, I used MIUI for the last few months until... I bought a SGS2 here in Australia.. I'm not a "noob" when it comes to custom kernels/ROMs even though I have noticed the process is a little different to my old Desire...

Now it looks like Intratech doesn't have a stock firmware just yet to suite my network provider but I'm not too worried about that... all I am worried about (like everyone else) is maintaining the warranty...

If I were to make a warranty claim (heaven forbid) for say a faulty screen, my warranty claim would be back to Samsung, would it not? meaning, they don't care which "Stock firmware" I use, as long as they see "Stock" right? I know they employ a counter to detect how many times youve flashed the device but I have read this can easily be reset...

What I am getting at is, I'm keen to at least root this device so I can A) Stop AD's by using Adfree and B) Get rid of my network providers bloatware on the device as half of it doesn't work anyway. From what Ive read, if I flash the insecure firmware to get root access, then flash "any" (or the latest) Stock firmware, I should still have a useable phone, right? With the Stock firmare/kernel, should I have a warranty claim, I have stock, so all I need to do is reset the counter, and send the device off? I wouldn't have to make sure I put back on my network providers firmware would I?

Thinking about it while typing, I think Im looking at wrong... you only flash the insecure firmware dont you, the "bloatware" can just be moved out of the apk directory and moved back if I need to send it off after I install the stock firmware?

Sorry for the essay... any advice would much appreciated...

If I got a phone with KF3 (i.e. europe) can I flash any other kernel from the list or do I have to stick to the kf3 variants?

i only ask as others cite that different kernels produce better results i.e. wifi coverage?

Also to get back to cwm after flashing these stock on a cf-root device, I just follow the standard root guides again to replace this stock kernel with the cf-root (or straight cwm kernel) via odin in download mode?
