So if I go to KI4 will I still be able to use Odin (3rd party software) etc.?

What about ADB?

Just trying to work out what exactly won't work.
[Galaxy S II General] abhiwltya:
Yes and Yes... :)
[Galaxy S II General] adancau:
And how do you enable that? Is it available for the end user?
[Galaxy S II General] otester:
So what exactly is everyone going on about then?

I read Chainfire's post but it seemed a bit vague.

general question on csc flash.

As usual most multi csc firmwares dont seem to have FOP for spain so i was gonna flash the FOPKD2 file from the frankinstein list.The only problem is im on 2.3.4 and from what i see the "KD2" part is 2.3.3 so thats the worry.the last time i accidentally crossed the 2 i bricked.So i know its only a csc flash and not a PDA but still its 2.3.3 as far as i can see.Safe or not?.Thats my worry.Any one....?:confused:
[Galaxy S II General] Mastermnd:
I'm with orange spain using the OXA poland CSC and all is well. (official KG5 pack from this thread). Just don't use frankensteins :) [from stock I had vodafone spain KE2 with ATL CSC btw].
[Galaxy S II General] samouri:
Dear all, i flashed the KI1 rom with the full files, the modem the pda and the boot, after flashing i faced a problem that the auto rotation and the tilting doesn't work at all, kindly help
[Galaxy S II General] abhiwltya:
XWKI4 is the latest i installed and it appears to be highly stable and visibly faster.

The best feature is that video player has an inbuilt editor(trimmer to be precise) .

Switching windows in browser has a faster animation.Improved battery life(i come from from kg5).

No display background effects option.I think they just set it to dynamic.

2 row power widget.

Music player feels louder and better sounding(or is it just me?)
[Galaxy S II General] otester:
"You can still connect USB sticks and whatnot, but 3rd party software can no longer control random USB devices (aside from reading data)."

I am currently developing a game with the ShiVa engine, the compiler sends an APK to the device upon completion, I just wanted clarification as someone then said everything was fine, confusing the matter.

Although this is all largely irrelevant now since Intratech has kindaly stripped KI4 of new evil bootloader.

KI1 was reported as buggy by some users, flash KI4.
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
I do have those 3 options in KI4
[Galaxy S II General] samouri:
Thank you, i will try then

But i just have a question, wd the KI4 come with also 4 files? thats to change the full of what i done, thanks
[Galaxy S II General] Krizp0:
Here's my list of new discoverable things in KE7:

- Faster wake-up (plausible... if you let it rest for 5 seconds first)

- Maybe faster charging (needs confirmations)

- New 'Music Hub' icon

- New image in 'Background effects'

- Can now choose lockscreen images from wallpaper selection in additon from the gallery.

More?
[Galaxy S II General] Krizp0:
Do you know if there are any improvements with this CSC for us who live in the nordic countries? The APNs are working fine for me also in XEU.
[Galaxy S II General] lgkahn:
have they finally fixed the csc install and put it in the correct location.. or do you still have to manually move the files around?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
not fixed. :p

Wiping cashe didt help.

But after wiping data/ fctr reset i flashed ke7 successfully :) o2 carier.

No more force close but required wiping data.
[Galaxy S II General] manuvaidya:
is this KIES version or ODIN version ??? becaus ei saw .zip extension at the end of thiss file. usually, samsung firmwares end with TAR right ?

man, is it okay if i flash your file ???

because i have already started downloading & i am in the halfway... & i am on gprs connection.... at that time Intratech was uploading the files....

if ur file proves to give me error, i will be disappointed a bit.... because i may have to download it for another 8 hrs....:(

is it suffecient to flash this file as PDA in ODIN or after this should i have to flash the kernel also which u have posted the link few posts before ??? i tried on KE2, but nothing happened, it just stayed at zimage forever.... no idea whats wrong.

pls help me man.... i am waiting for ur response.... i even went to the host site where only PS3 discussion is made & no mention of SGS2..... i thought i could read the changes /procedure on how i install this....

any input regarding the clarification of my doubts is much helpful....:D
[Galaxy S II General] pigglett:
yes done that even tried few version of super :(

I just get waiting to connect to phone
[Galaxy S II General] mika34:
have you tried wipe data/factory reset?

ps. light sensor still very bad on KE7. When you cover the sensor with your finger your screen only around 7sec will be darker. When you take finger off the light sensor it needs aroud 5 to make it brighter. Thats very bad.
[Galaxy S II General] t0ph0id:
I had this FC error too, factory reset fixed it.
[Galaxy S II General] pigglett:
sorted bloody win 7 x64 .. rebooted few times finally worked :rolleyes:

ty for help
[Galaxy S II General] orreborre:
Hello guys!

I'm currently on the swedish/nordic stock ROM. Can i flash this and then flash back to stock (have that downloaded) through ODIN if something happens and I need to use my warranty? (I guess they don't want me to flash a ROM that's not official to my area?)

And also, will the counter in download mode increase by flashing this? Going for a jig later, but would really like to try this :)

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] guest member:
For the invaluable goodness that is this thread, I just bought you a beer Intratech (or two or three, depending on where you drink (assuming you drink (I don't like to make assumptions))).

Just flashed, rooted, kernelled - all good.

I THINK the counter only goes up if you root or flash a non-standard kernel - so if you just flash KE7 and don't root I don't think the counter will go up. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
[Galaxy S II General] jangomango:
Please ignore... Fixed it..

Sent from the best phone in the world...
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
The counter will increase if you flash an unsigned kernel so if you root the device using the insecure KDD kernel the counter will increment by one each time you flash that kernel. Using the USB jig will reset it to nil. :)

Cheers, I do drink occasionally. Probably buy Omega 3+6+9 supplements though as my joints take a pounding during training. :)
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
lol, I was just going to suggest trying another PC. :)
[Galaxy S II General] BoostedSR20:
Thanks for staying on top of these updates. Will flash tonight after work.
[Galaxy S II General] dyallo:
No - not really :P
[Galaxy S II General] stoney73:
Try reading the first post of this thread. all your questions about instructions are answered there.

As for the zip, extract it. The Tar file is within.
[Galaxy S II General] walda:
@Intratech: Thx for your work!

Could you please add md5 (TAR or ZIP) and Filesize at #1 in the future, or even for KE7.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] mi3x:
@Intratech - nice having you in the SGS2 board! Thanks for your work and thread. Re-flashing new firmware now!
[Galaxy S II General] dartoumi:
How do I know if the phone is branded or not? And if it is, does this have any consequences for flashing firmwares? Thanx!
[Galaxy S II General] samouri:
i flashed the KI4, but the phone keeps looping the bootanimation and doesn't work, help plss
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
Factory reset will do the trick
[Galaxy S II General] cooza:
dude thats the one.Im one kg5 OXA also but it doesnt have FOP.I saw on another thread that some-one advised some-one else who was on KH3 to flash the FOPKD2 frankinstein file but "KD2" is 2.3.3 and that to me cant be a good mix.The thing is now i cant find the thread to ask him how it went.Hope he didnt brick his phone.Think ill stick with KOR as it doesnt give any problems although it would be nice to have the one which goes with the country.cheers.
[Galaxy S II General] bluzes:
can you still update via kies later if you did an update using odin????
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
Depends at you region. Why use Kies? Odin is much better.
[Galaxy S II General] mbevc1:
well, depends wich FW you choose in Odin. If you use official stock you can. but if you turn tu frankenstein or other combinations you have first return to fresh stock an you're back on track ;)
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
I do not think you are quite right
[Galaxy S II General] mbevc1:
well, I could be wrong, but as I know Kies only checks combination FW+CSC+modem and looks up if there is newer avaliabe... correct me if this is not the case.

i am currently on XXKH3, is there any benifit in flashing XKI4
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
Not really...
[Galaxy S II General] turt:
Hi,

I currently have KH3 installed. I have a very strange issue with Polaris Office: it works flawlessly, but whenever I try to open or create an Excel file, the application force closes, with the message that the "com.infraware.polarisoffice" process has stopped...

Word, powerpoint or pdf files work just fine! Has anyone else faced this issue, and know how to solve it?

I've tried updating the app within the Parameters menu but it says I have the latest version...

I'm posting this here since this app is part of the ROM and can't be retrieved from elsewhere...

EDIT: I'm answering my own question, in case someone else faces the same issue. Just go to Settings>Applications, select Polaris Office and "Clear Data" => now it works! :D

Thanks to this thread on XDA ;)
[Galaxy S II General] MeX_DK:
Intratech,

Please make it so that your version of CWM saves the backups on the external SD please. Im not fond of using InternalSD
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:

Indian Official ROM version

Hi Guys,

I want to go back to stock rom. Please let me which ROM i need to install for indian based model.
[Galaxy S II General] dsmaori:
I tried to flash kh1 this morning from Villain 2.5 but it got to the 'touch the andriod to begin' screen then got fc's and couldn't get any further. Do I need to do full wipe, dalvik wipe then try again?
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
Clear cache and dalvik in recovery should resolve the issue.
[Galaxy S II General] dsmaori:
Ok, thanks. so not a full wipe, just clear cache & dalvik?
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
Start with that and if it doesn't resolve the issue then perhaps Villain ROM does require a wipe flashing to stock IDK as I've never use that particular ROM.
[Galaxy S II General] timberwolf60:
It have AUT Embeldef in it. XWKI4 ROM have XSK, XEZ, XEO, XEH, XEE, VOM, VDH, TRG,TPH, TMS, TDC, SUN, SEB, PAN, ORS, ORG, ODK, NEE, EUR, DNF, CYO, COS and AUT. it was a multi CSC. without XEU and XEN
[Galaxy S II General] dsmaori:
Hmmmm...... not sure what I'm doing wrong? I've tried again and still no joy. Did wipe dalvic and cache then flashed via odin and didn't work. Then tried full wipe, then odin and still didn't work. What am I doing wrong? I've flashed lots of stock firmware before and never had this problem before :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] TKLex:
Hello XDA :)

KI4 works fine except that some menu are not translated while using another language than english (French in my case). (Power Saving for example).

Is there away to fix this ? Is it because it's a XW version ?

Thanks for your help !

This might sound stupid so I apologise in advance, I have searched for firmware for my phone, but all I can find is for 2.3.3 which I already have, where is 2.3.4?

Maybe on the first page
[Galaxy S II General] Somel:
Hi guys,

Hope you can help me.

I had a Vodafone Ireland device. I updated to XWKF3 General UK. Which version should be the follow up version? XWKI4?? Kies says my current version is the latest.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
You can choose anyone you want.
[Galaxy S II General] Montala:
Don't forget that Kies will only look for officially released firmware, and will not recognise customised or pre-release 'leaked' versions.

Have a look in the first couple of posts for some stable, but 'unofficial' later releases.

where's the link??
[Galaxy S II General] miswu0129:
if now install 2.3.5, it can root??
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
It's coming soon. Due to certain circumstance I cannot release what I have until it's leaked on the net already.

Please respect my wishes and don't post links to packages from other places. When I do not know where they are from and what has been done to them I wish for them to remain there. There is already a thead in the General section with links to samfirmware files.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Please remove these links mate.

Thank you for respecting my request. Top man. :)

[Galaxy S II General] anshmiester78900:

[Galaxy S II General] serch826:
Firmware version: I9100XXKI3.

XX = Europe.

K = 2011.

I = September.

3 = Version.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Leaked build. Different regions. Strange fish. Samsung.
[Galaxy S II General] Edwrib:
Liked/found bugs? :-)
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
No really obvious issue but I've been working and training so haven't really had time to check anything out. It hasn't crashed or done anything funny so far.
[Galaxy S II General] petsasj:
Intratech, if i get it straight, your version differs from what's on samfirmware. Your version includes OXAKI3 CSC and KI3 modem.

You don't want to be the one leaking that version, so you want it to be leaked on the net first, then upload it, am i correct?
[Galaxy S II General] bluzes:
Any way you can also have a copy of 2.3.5 with the boot loader that is comes with??? when your ready to make it available?

2. Full package with old bootloader

3. Frankenstein™ non-wipe version with XEUKD1 CSC and old bootloader
[Galaxy S II General] radiobicho:
Thanks, INTRATECH. You are the man!!! :) XXKI3 + CF-ROOT XWKI4 works ok for me.
[Galaxy S II General] jenskristian:
Does anyone know if flashing KI3 (the non wipe Frankenstein obviously) coming from KI4 will cause any problems? Like it did then going from KG5 to KG4 (if I remember the firmware names correctly)?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
I went from KI4 to KI3 without any issues:)
[Galaxy S II General] davidoff08:
I got a bad lag in Application management which is a shame cause it has some nice touches... i tried to wipe but no difference i like the blue effect,and the new notification on silent.....
[Galaxy S II General] Rubin85:
quadrant for me is less then 2500 every time (based on KI3)
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Dunno what's wrong with your phone guys, no lag here. I've used both the Galaxy S II TWLauncher and the Epic 4G TWLauncher and both are smooth

KI3

is the KI3 rootable with usual way?
[Galaxy S II General] stegmuellerm:
i do not think so that it is possible now because i have the same problem.

i can not root it again in this moment.

i try really a lot of different ways
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:

Is it possible to extract the XXKI2 CSC from the latest official samsung build and use that instead of the older MultiCSC?

hello Intratech thanks for KI3 upload :D

running perfectly till that moment,

I got 1 little question just checking if my info is correct, Jordan CSC is LEV am i right?

with cf-root ki4 kernel my phone will not boot

the bootloader is locked i think

i try also the old bootloader

nothing happened

after i flash again with the stock kernel and my phone boot but it is not rooted

i test it also with wipe

superoneclick will also not work
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
I'm not 100% sure but from guessing from the CSCs in the middle east firmware it looks like it could be.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
It does. Read the first page of this thread.
[Galaxy S II General] NitroOnTheRocks:
I really admire your patience and willingness to reply to EVERYONE'S (same) questions.

Also thank you for all the official ROMs (that you upload so fast), so I can cook my own custom Roms in my kitchen. (cause I'm a kitchen/flash junkie...)

Thanks for the ki3 intratech..:)

rooted it with cf-root XWKI4 kernel no problem here..

now with ninphetamine kernel..
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
If you're coming from a custom ROM you'll need to do a factory reset from recovery after flashing. After flashing it can take a while for the first boot.
[Galaxy S II General] daddioj:
thanks for the reply. i never used custom roms. i just root stock roms. wiped the phone mutilple times. even used the 3 files including pit to fully restore the phone. i get stuck at boot with the triangle only after flashing any kernel unsecure. CF etc. not the S boot screen. but if i restore the phone and leave it alone without flashing any kernels i am golden and phone works great
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
Please don't mention pit files to Intratech! lol
[Galaxy S II General] LonelyJourney:
Total noob here so apologies if this sounds dumb. I just bought an unlocked SG2 on Amazon, I rooted, installed a Rom but it's killing my battery life. I want to go back to stock but I'm not sure which is best to flash back to. I'm on ATT in the United States. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S II General] netcitizen:
Battery drain can be caused by several reasons. Rogue Apps waking up the system , modem not suited for your region, battery not calibrated and so on. First install better battery stats app and check which app has more wake locks. The rom you installed may be buggy so you can flash the stock roms available in this thread. Refer first page for steps to install. After flash charge till 100% and then use battery calibration app to calibrate it. Give it 3-4 days and see how it goes. If you have signal problems that can cause battery drain too. Try installing other modems and see if you can find some improvement.

[Galaxy S II General] jetshinoda:
quick question for @intratech:

if i came from a custom ROM and want to flash the KI3...which version should i flash with odin without factory reset ( if it's possible though) ?

the non-wipe package or full wipe package ?

just curious...or i HAVE to do a factory reset after all ?

oh 1 more thing..did the KI3 come with GTalk with video?

thanks in advance

Hi. Does ki3 break usb host to work for memory sticks only?
[Galaxy S II General] dajumper:
be warned! i did also reset the counter it is now on 0!! but when i try to flash a custom kernel it won't boot!! it is stuck on yellow triangle! so there is a second counter, and after 25 times flash it is still locked after the normal counter is on 0! :(
