How come it's 506 MB?

Just downloaded and flashed this: http://www.multiupload.com/8QERBJT6P7

And it's supposed to be the same :confused:

Answer to the first question: Found that the link above is a .exe file, and then it's somehow compressed down to 261mb :).

Another question:

I've flashed one of the Non-frankenstein firmwares from this topic. Now when i connect to Kies it says: "This version of your device cannot be updated" How do i make my phone able to receive opdates through Kies again? Just flash the stock kernel or what?

Any help would be highly appreciated :)!
[Galaxy S II General] icsulescu:
Theoretical from what I encounter if you chose the default csc (with *#272*IMEI#) of the rom that you installed (like the one I have uploaded default is NEE) you will be able to see it there are updates available through KIES

CAREFUL!!! if you change the csc your data will be deleted so do not blame me!

Regards,

Me
[Galaxy S II General] copponex:
Thank you very much for the answer. Just got one more question, My default csc was XEF. And i can't find XEF when i look it up with the code you provided. What to do?

SOLVED:

Worked it out by setting the csc to the NEE(Nordic) Since I'm from Denmark. For some reason it was set to GBT(German) even though i downloaded the one that said NEE. But now after setting my csc to NEE I'm able to receive updates through KIES again.

Hope my troubles will spare others for their troubles :D

@copponex: How to change the CSC to another region?

@all: Is it possible to root the KF3? There is no CR-Root-Kernel and also no insecure kernel for use with S2 Root? How to root KF3?

THX in advance!

Is GT-I9100_SEB_I9100XWKE2_I9100XXKDJ_I9100OXXKE2 firmware or kernel only? If there is only one .tar file and that goes to PDA slot how will phone be refreshed?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
That's a full firmware package. Read the first bit of the first post.
[Galaxy S II General] wickedsaint:
Really dont know what to do!!

Hey guys... hello!! I'm familiar with odin and flashing and all (had galaxy S before) but my current galaxy S2's info is given below:

Via *#1234#

PDA: I9100UHKE2

PHONE: I9100UHKE2

CSC: I9100UUBKD1

I dont know what this CSC means! Found it in another thread that the CSC is from Trinidad and Tobago... this is where I'm really confused! my PDA and phone is from Chilie and the CSC is T&T... my question is whether i can use other custom firmware and root and do all the stuff.. whether CSC will be a big impact??

Please suggest!!! Thanks a lot!!
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Will do. The CSC package will be uploaded shortly and will be available in the Frankenstein section. :)
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
You can use any firmware you want with the device, just hard reset after flashing and then reflash the firmware again.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
XEF CSC now available as requested.:)
[Galaxy S II General] ahajdu:
OK, I read it, but it is still unclear if I just put the tar file in the PDA slot and that will do everything OR if I put the same tar file in the PDA, CSC and the PHONE slot.
[Galaxy S II General] Pyrone89:
Seems like Samsung is forgetting to push updates through KIES. The latest KIES version in The Netherlands is KE2. Why are they waiting? KF2 is ready, now push it through KIES and start working on KG1 with 2.3.4
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
As you where told to read .

INSTRUCTIONS POST 1

I would beware flashing until you are able to read and understanding the instructions . No point crying over a broken phone .

(If the package only contains one .tar archive then it will have everything, pda+phone+csc, in the one file )

Clear enough .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] ahajdu:
So I just put the .tar file in the PDA slot and that will update Phone and CSC? Sorry, for asking but I just want to be sure to do the right thing.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Yes, if you're using a package from the first post it will update everything even though you're only putting the .tar package in one slot, pda, in Odin.
[Galaxy S II General] otester:
Anyone know when/if new firmware is due?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:

[Galaxy S II General] otester:
That would be cool :p
[Galaxy S II General] mabmed:
are this roms deodexed?
[Galaxy S II General] apacheo:
no they are stock roms, and thus, replete with odex files.

dear all, i'm new here and have my version on XWKE1 i connect to kies but have a message that my phone cannot be updated although i see that my version is not the latest, so pls tell me why kies don't update and which version is correct for me to update to. thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II General] Sultan1993:
Wow. KF3 is for my country.(Kazakhstan) How is that?
[Galaxy S II General] Cladon:
Help me please!

Kies says that my firmware version is:

PDA : KE2

PHONE: KDJ

CSC: KD4 (COA)

In the "About phone" section on my S2 it says:

Android version: 2.3.3

Baseband version: I9100XXKDJ

Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKE2-CL187606root@DELL101#2

Build number: GINGERBREAD.XWKE2

Please tell me if I want to upgrade the firmware to XWKE7 which ROM should I choose from the first post to match my phone and if it is necessary to root the phone with another kernel after the firmware upgrade or is it possible to do the upgrade without rooting the phone?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II General] jenskristian:
Will flashing from KE7 (EU) to KF3 (NEE) cause you to lose data? If the answer is no, I will get it done today for sure :)
[Galaxy S II General] Sultan1993:
Download official KE7 or newer KF2 from this thread and flash it using ODIN. no rooting required
[Galaxy S II General] jenskristian:
I know that already :) I have already flashed KE7 using Odin, so that won't be a problem. Will just have to find the insecure kernel to use to get root access. What I'm wondering about is if doing this will cause data to be deleted from the phone (not the SD card obviously).

Edit: Does someone know which insecure kernel to use when rooting KF3 (NEE)?
[Galaxy S II General] buzmay:
If you only flash the KF# (NEE) then no lata will not be lost. The only moment you loose data is if you want to change the CSC, but in your case since you are Nordic then I guess you do not need to change the CSC. So just go and flash the generic NEE data will not be lost :)
[Galaxy S II General] jenskristian:
Thank you. When I flashed from KE2 (NEE) to KE7 (EU) I didn't lose any data, so it sounds right that I won't lose any flashing the other way either. Now all I need is an insecure kernel.
[Galaxy S II General] buzmay:
Can't you not flash Chain's insecure kernels?
[Galaxy S II General] jenskristian:
You mean this one? Will that work with KF3? I think I used that one when flashing KE7.
[Galaxy S II General] SkilletDesire:
Is KF3 Gingerbread 2.3.4?
[Galaxy S II General] jenskristian:
No, it's not.
[Galaxy S II General] Mixy:
Use any insecure kernel, and flash back to the official KF# kernel after youve rooted your phones. No problems at all :)
[Galaxy S II General] Cladon:
Kf2 or kf3?

On this thread it seems that KF2 is newer than KF3? Am I right?
[Galaxy S II General] geekaren:
Yes. KF2 has a newer build date than KF3.
[Galaxy S II General] jenskristian:
When you say any kernel, can you mention one that can be confirmed working? :)

I really do not want to screw it up and have to install everything from scratch.
[Galaxy S II General] ahajdu:
anyone know how to get device to be updated with KIES? Mine says that the software is not updateable.

I tried this: flash original KE2 firmware; factory reset; KE2 flas again, all this unto no avail.

I would love to get this to work.

Also, does the KF2 firmware change my CSC? I would love to keep my (PAN) settings but enjoy a better firmware.

One last thing, with KE2, did anyone notice WIFI being too weak? Any updates on this?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:

If you're looking for a change log that's who you need to contact for one. I'm getting a bit tired of people asking for change logs when the first post of the thread tells you that Samsung don't publish any.:rolleyes:

?????:confused:

You won't lose any data flashing any of these firmware packages apart from the one Frankenstein™ package that clearly warns you that it will wipe the device.
[Galaxy S II General] jvidia:
Where did I ask for a "change log" ?

I know that Samsung doesn't have/give that.

I asked for changes in the way of possible changes already detected by the XDA members that had tried both versions.

Everyone is very "jumpy" arround here this days. Jesus....

Will you upload this one, or only if the interest is high enough? Would love to have it as KF3 is the latest official Kies release here in Norway, but I'm currently on Frankenstein KF2 with XEUKD1 CSC.

I'm also interested in noticeable changes (not a changelog;)). Especially regarding the ability to change system fonts and to change themes in the MMS.apk. Really miss the mono skin on KF2 :cool:

[Galaxy S II General] PHiL_G4:

is there a reason that every Frankenstein™ package is with the XEUKD1?

Is it better to take the Poland OXAKF2 CSC for me (Germany) ?

thx!
[Galaxy S II General] samouri:
i flashed the JPKF3, should i flash the kernel JPKF3 as well or is it already flashed with the firmware, thanks
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Well, I posted the individual CSC packages so you can download the one you need to substitute it for the included XEUKD1 in the package. For Germany the CSC package you should use would be the multiCSC package.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
You only need the kernel if you're rooting the device.:)

[Galaxy S II General] ravian29:
hi,

i was using F2 and now i am on F3, i have baseband version KF1. i have problem with my wifi, whenever s2 sleep's after 2,3 mminutes my wifi went off, i do not know why, it does not show new emails or notifications etc but when i press home button and wifi sometimes turn on itself and sometimes it takes long time to turn itself on. Even sometimes i need to turn it off and again turn on by myself.

Is this normal ? i do not know why is this, it should show me notification as soon as i receive (for example email). :confused:

do i need to update my baseband ? i do not know which baseband is latest and how to update, any help please

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] ahajdu:
Intratech,

Were you able to find out anything about the KIES problem? It won't recognize my KE2 as an upgradable firmware. I did what you said flash, hard reset and flash and still KIES won't work. It is a HUngarian Telenor device and kies says: PDA: KE2/Phone: KDJ/ CSC:KE2 (PAN)

*#1234# says:

pda: I9100XWKE2

phone: I9100XXKDJ

CSC: I9100OXXKE2

Also flashing the official KF2 firmware, will I still have Multi CSC or not? If not, where can I download it?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
I'm trying to get hold of a Telenor firmware for you. Normally a flash, hard reset and flash again should debrand the phone and KIES should work normally again.

We can manually change your CSC to XEH which is Hungarian unbranded device csc by inputting *#272*Device IMEI# into the dial pad and selecting the csc of your choice and press install. It will reset the device. You can find the device IMEI by inputting *#06# in the dialpad. After this KIES should work.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
To be honest I haven't used KF1 baseband so I can't give a proper answer. You can just flash the baseband by downloading the Frankenstein package with a KF2 phone or download the KF2 modem from pulser's modem thread and flash that with Odin. Just be aware that KIES will not offer you update if you do this as it will not be an official firmware package on your phone.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Well I'll be in a better position to give a proper answer later today after using the device in a normal manner.:)
[Galaxy S II General] ravian29:
thanks for you answer, Frankenstein package will wipe my mobile and i do not want to waste my 2,3 hours to restore it back with all my data and applications.

Is there any way to update my baseband on stock F3 rom ? usin odin or something ?

thanks for helping me
[Galaxy S II General] ahajdu:
You are a genious Intratech, it did it! KIES now works. THank you so much.

Final question the latest official GT-I9100_XEO_I9100XXKF2_I9100OXAKF2_I9100XXKF2, does that have a XEH in the CSC?

Also, if you can, please continue to look for Hungarian Telenor branded firmware in case I need to rebrand. Thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
This package will not wipe the device or I would have put a warning that it would. There is only one package I've uploaded that will wipe the device and there is a warning before the download link for it.

Yes, the baseband is the phone/modem part of the firmware. You can download the Frankenstein package with it or from Pulser's modem thread and just flash it with Odin.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Happy days! :)

No, that firmware doesn't have XEH CSC.

When I get the Telenor firmware it will be posted in the carrier thread.
[Galaxy S II General] TJ!:
I've recently purchased my SGSII and successfully got CF-Root and VillainROM installed. The next step was to get the Norwegian keyboard layout along with dictionaries for the samsung and swype keyboards which where present in the stock ROM.

As such I flashed the MultiCSC OXXKF1 using ODIN and the CSC field, switched/installed to NEE and I'm left without a Norwegian Keylayout for either the samsung keyboard and swype, nor a dictionary for either.

And it's not only Norwegian missing, all scandinavian languages are missing when i select NEE. The rest of the european languages however seems to be accounted for.

Did I miss something? Do I need to flash a different kernel after changing CSC?
[Galaxy S II General] pipi9100:
Hi guys, I spent more then an hour going through all posts in this topic,

sorry but I am still confused:

I have an KE2 stock kernel and baseband version

(I9100XWKE2 / 2.65.35.7-I9100XWKE2-CL187606root@DELL101#2),

still unable to clearly

understand which is the latest update through odin for my SGS2 version

to be able to have root privileges?

KE2 or KF2 or KF4...uuuuhhh, confused
[Galaxy S II General] buzmay:
The latest update has nothing to do with having root privileges. You can root at any time using a insecure kernel. What this post is about is the latest firmwires available, which depending on the country you are from might not be available via Kies, therefore Intratech has done a fantastic job putting all the firmwares here so you can flash then with Odin, instead of waiting for Kies to let you do the same.
[Galaxy S II General] waveryf:
@Intratech

I did not check until today but I see that you added XEF CSC.

Thank you so much. It will enable french users (me at least) to get back their APNs when they flash stock Samsung roms with Odin or custom rom wipe versions.

Thanks again
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Dude the csc will not add these things, it only contains the softwares and carrier settings that are specific to the region or carrier. The firmware has to have these supported for them to work.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
No worries. :)

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byronczimmer:
I don't know that you can stop one of the 4 inputs from waking up the hardware, but...

You can define the 'n' button to do something that doesn't offend you and set your screen to sleep after a very brief moment (15 seconds).

Why do you want to change the hardward button behavior?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramiss:
Hi, thanks for answering. The reason for this request is because the screen keeps waking up as it moves around in my bag. Just lightly pushing on the case/cover I use will activate the button and leave the screen on until the timeout. I am surprised this isn't an issue for more people (or perhaps people aren't noticing their nook turning on.)

Lowering the timeout is not going to work since I do a lot of reading and having to tap the screen every 15 seconds would be a pain. Unless anyone has figured out how to get screebl to work??
