KK2 / KK5 does not wipe any data

Flashing the KK2 / KK5 Frankestein will not wipe any data from my phone right?
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
It should only wipe it if you change the csc. :)

Problem in WLAN with TLS authentication & certificate in KK5?

As can be seen in my signature I use the KK5 package from Telia with the CSC from DREI-Austria.

Question 1.)

I am not able anymore to login to our company Network via Wifi. We use TLS authentication with certificates. Worked on KI4 and KI8. Formerly I used Modems XXKI1 (on KI4 ROM) and NEKI2 (on KI8 ROM), both worked.

Also the certificate still works on my Nexus S (Stock - Company phone)

I tried to reinstall the certificates as well, reboot several times.

Could this be an issue of Modem XXKI4??
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Definitely not a modem issue, wifi is controlled by drivers in the kernel.

[Galaxy S II General] rustyx3:
I notice 3G connection quality degradation after upgrading the modem from XXKI3 to XXKI4. I.e. it just disappears sometimes. Did anyone else notice this?
[Galaxy S II General] :
NEKI2 worked definitely better than XXKI4. i also have the impression that "starting up" data transmission takes longer at DREI AT with XXKI4 than with the ones I used before. But I have no measurements that proof this suspicion ;-)

---------- Post added at 04:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:44 PM ----------

Thansk for feedback. Good to know.

in this case: Anyone expirienced WIFI problems at Wifi's using TLS & a certificate on XWKK5?

EDIT: Personally I returned to KI8....simply works at the moment
[Galaxy S II General] cmorelm:
what about XWKK5 when is it comming

Ive downloaded from another site but get a bunch of files in the rar, I prefer your method of onli une file without .pit or any of that.
[Galaxy S II General] jim-bo:
Already there - has been for ages - remember that there is only a frankenstein build so far, since there hasn't (yet?) been an unbranded release from Samsung.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:

can someone help?? very urgent for me..
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
Please describe again - in detail - what you've done so far and what is the issue.

Does Recovery mode work, does Download mode work?

Have you made a factory reset?

Attach a screenshot of Odin's failure message.

Maybe someone in this thread can help, if you put all needed information together in one post.
[Galaxy S II General] sayem_unlimited:
Thanks a lot.

I understood. I'll follow your instructions and will stick with JK3 for now. I'll root and flash speedmod kernel as you described. Hopefully, everything will be alright.

Thanks you so much. So please wish me luck for happy rooting. I'll give feedback when i'm done.

I've already said the version I have is officially for Telia Denmark. Telia is a carrier in Denmark and we have a thread for carrier firmware so therefore it follows that the untouched firmware (unmodified/stock) is found in said thread. :)

There is no XWKK5 modem. :(
[Galaxy S II General] dan1431:
I flashed the KK2 firmware and on my GT-I9100 it was slightly laggy and my reception was nowhere near as good as the prior firmware which came pre-installed on the phone.

I flashed back to the old firmware and things are basically back to where they were before I started except for two things.

1) The user experience does not feel as buttery smooth as it did prior to the upgrade (could be me as I am now paying very close attention to the way in which the phone operates).

2) I got this message that it could not flash multi-csc (or something like that) but then said something about being okay...not really sure what that is about.

[Galaxy S II General] timberwolf60:
1) xwkk5 was as good as the previous firmware,run smoothly for me.

2) I changed from OXXKJ3 to CSC multi CSC OXAKI3 without any problem.

Flashed to Criskelo V32 ROM now and enjoy.

I'm on Bell 2.3.3 so if I want KK2 , can I just flash KK2 with Bell csc ?

Also any diff between KK2/KK5?
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
IMO no big difference.

On my phone, XWKK5 has a slightly better performance (speed) - but both feel smooth.

For my "normal" usage (synch of three email accounts, calendar, news, wifi on, Google Talk and Skype active all the time), XWKK5 has a better battery life too.

But this depends on many different things ...

... you may want to test both ROM versions, as they are non-wipe.

Good luck !
[Galaxy S II General] GDF01:
Thanks for your response, I will test them out. As for the csc file, is it important to flash the bell one or not?
[Galaxy S II General] diddsen:
@intratech

i have o2 germany... so which csc could be right?

flashed your kk2 frankenstein and theres only xeu, what means XEU = UNITED KINGDOM :(
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
Try to use the pre-included CSC, which is XEUKH2 for Frankenstein ROMs.

That includes your languages (English and German ... and many others), and works fine with O2.

If it work for bell one, everything is fine.

If not, just check Intratech's carrier branded firmware thread.

But I think that some already posted that bell one work fine too.

IMO no need to flash a special/different CSC.
[Galaxy S II General] Fox05:
Hi,

I just wanted to ask if the Frankenstein Firmwares are stock roms too? If not where is the XWKK5 rom available from? :D

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Yes, they are the same stock firmwares. Just might include a different modem sometimes or a different csc.

can't root KK5 with Easy Rooting Toolkit, it goes to all the process and reboots but I don't get root access. I was rooted on KK2 before flashing KK5. used the insecure kernel for this but don't want to go through this process again

Any sugestions? thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
You can try to boot into recovery mode (Volume UP + Home + Power, press the keys until recovery menu appears), do a factory reset and reboot.

If that does not help, you might have to flash the stock ROM again.

Good luck !

---------- Post added at 05:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 PM ----------

Having read some posts before or the last posts in zergRush exploit thread, you would have known that.

But, lucky you ;-)

I have a suggestion:

Just flash Chainfire's CF-Root kernel for XWKK5 in PDA section of Odin.

How to get rid of the yellow triangle is described in the second post of Chainfire's thread here => http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1103399&highlight=CF+Root

There are some other rooting methods, such as flashing another rooted kernel (I use SpeedMod kernel), flashing an insecure kernel and use SuperOneClick (as described by Intratech in the first post), restore last system backup with rooted ROM before, install Mobile ODIN Pro (paid version from the Market) and flash the latest stock ROM again with EverRoot option by using Mobile ODIN, ...

It's your choice.

Good luck !
[Galaxy S II General] Fox05:
Does it matter if they have different Modems or CSCs? :)

Thanks.

[Galaxy S II General] superarnab:
Hi...

Will it work on I9100??
[Galaxy S II General] lrcquest:
U can opt for 2.3.5 or 2.3.6. As the latter is the latest. Look in the Frankenstein section (post no.3 ). Search for XWKK5. XWKK5

Go for the CSC for your region. For this dial *#1234# on your dialpad & note the CSC. Go for the closest one in the CSC listing @ the end of post 3. I have seen Hongkong csc in the listng, but u r the boss.

Extract Put the first file in the PDA & second file in the CSC in odin.

Flash & its done.

Follow the procedure for Odin & U r done!

Rooting process also is mentioned but is optional.

Also, since u r from old fw, a factory wipe is recommended.

Thanks a lot again. Downloaded both files. Also, can you please give me the CSC file separately? Or is it in these rars itself? Sorry for my n00b questions, I am not sure how exactly CSC file looks like.

What I want to do is keep the Indian CSC file with me from this FW, and if future stock updates are released for other countries and not for India for I9100G, I can use this CSC files and their FW to flash my mobile. So, please tell me which is CSC file.

Hello -

I seem to also be stuck in a boot loop when attempting to restore to factory.

I recorded this prior to custom roms:

Kernel Version

2.6.35.7-I9100XXKH3-CL479037

se.infra@SEI-15 #2

SMP PREEMPT Fri Aug 12 11:36:56 KST 2011

I have odin 1.85 installed. Based on the above, I download the stock ROM GT-I9100_XEO_I9100XXKH3_I9100XXKH3_I9100OXAKH3. The KH3 matches the KH3.

I opened ODIN, and select the KH3 ROM for the PDA and hit start. All goes well except it's in a bootloop at the Samsung I9100 screen.

Any ideas? Thanks.

** EDIT **

Never mind....I forgot to factory reset first. Just did it and now back to the beginning setup screen.
