Why do you need a cwm and root shw-m250s? I suppose you can update your shw-m250s to 4.1.2 by the Kies software. Or if you really want to convert your device to GT-I9100 4.1.2 (I can't understand why everyone wants that) you should download firmware for the GT-I9100 and use Odin software for the ffirmware flashing.
[Galaxy S II General] thirdzcee:
http://dabinslab.blogspot.com/2013/03/turn-shw-250sk-to-gt-i9100.html?m=1

This is what I used to convert and was succesful

Probably cause i9100 kernel won't boot on shw, happened to me and flashing i9100 firmware without repatitioning didn't work either... Only with repartition made it boot... Probably due to mount point differences in shw and i9100 firmwares
[Galaxy S II General] AlexBocman:
[

Probably that's a reason, you should have a PIT file for the converting.

In my case phone was converted to GT-I9100 already, but I converted it back to SHW-M250S without any repartition and it boots w/o any problems. After that I updated the firmware to the latest accessible version under KIES.

Gyroscope bug fix

To all of you people having the "gyroscope" & "compass" issues... Go to this link.. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2428779. Read it thoroughly.

That is the exact library file needed for our sensors to work. Unzip it. Push it into /system/lib/hw & change permissions to rw-r--r--. Reboot.

Works with Jellybean ROMs only... Supposed to work over all Jellybean CMs (10~10.2).

ICS users, get a SHW-250* ICS ROM, unzip, copy the sensors.smdk4210.so from the ROM into ur current ROM & Enjoy....:good:

Help?

Can someone please link me to a stock M250S ICS rom? M250K or L will not work for some reason.

I can't connect to Vodafone in India on my current rom, I've tried flashing about ten other ones. It's stuck on 'Emergency calls only'

I want a stock ICS rom so I can update it using Kies.

Is there a Cyanogenmod rom specifically designed for m250 ? CM10.1, 10.2 or 11

I just bought a m250k in Korea and flashed a i9100 rom to it, then CM10.1.

The gyro is behaving badly, and I guess I lost NFC and DMB.

Also my battery is being eaten very quickly by the media server. Any suggestion ?

[Galaxy S II General] iyengar:
Answer is NO: Designed for Intl version I9100. you may have to change the some of the .so files to get that working. Simple you have to turn in to I9100 using pit file

Battery: No comments, depends on usage, still stock is the only answer for battery issues

---------- Post added at 12:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 PM ----------

Load the device with KIES and update, else download the right based band from samfirmware.com (region based) and lot of links shared in previous page too.

Flash it with odin or run it though ODIN

[Galaxy S II General] RaphaelBarros:
Hi there guys! New user of m250k here!

After some hassle I were able to install CyanFox 2.0.2 (Android 4.4.2). Everything seems to be working very fine and dandy, except for a really important thing: the calls. It seems to recognize that my Simcard is from KT, but it says it can only make "Emergency Calls". The phone was doing calls fine before I installed the rom (actually I installed a stock i9100 rom before it, and in this rom the calls were also not working, but since they were a means to an end, I didn't care). I removed and put the Simcard again to no avail, and I also tested it in my galaxy S and it is working fine.

Any idea about how I could keep this rom and still fix this problem? This rom seems amazing, lots of features and extremely fluid, but this problem makes it unusable for me.

Thank you :)

[Galaxy S II General] siemer:
Korean modem _is_ different from i9100!

Hello everyone!

I have an SHW-M250S. I had it running for months with an original i9100 modem XXLS8 and it worked fine in China (China Unicom 中国联通) (Cyanogenmod 10.1 Nightly with Dorimanx kernel). That modem was from the i9100 ZSLSJ package (ZS is Hong Kong), and yes, I’ve seen that with a bunch of i9100 HK firmwares that actually include the “international XX modem”.

In Hong Kong, my phone stopped working properly with data. I use the operator Three 3 HK. It seemed that almost every cell handover hosed the Internet connection permanently. I had to reboot, regularly even twice to get the data connection working again. SMS got also stuck. Sometimes I could send SMS, but not receive after a while. The signal strength indicator turned unreliable. It sometimes showed the empty triangle, but coverage in the area was good. The indicator for data showed that the phone is sending but not receiving packets, when the problem turned up. But not always. Once I had the empty triangle with no data indicated, but Internet was “still” working.

I tried a bunch of i9100 modems, for example XXKH3, XXMS3, ZSLPG (really announced as that) and XXMS2. All have the same problem with Three 3 HK.

I once tried to replace the RIL libraries off the system. The definitively matched the modem, but not the system. I guess they could not even be loaded by the dynamic linker, because everything phone related stopped working. Not even calls could be made, the phone-app got stuck in a call-attempted and could not be convinced to hang up.

Back with the former Cyanongenmod RIL, I got the idea to try a M250x-modem. Worked. Flawless. I tried KSJME1 and KKJME1 (for M250S and M250K, respecitively). Both worked perfect. I didn’t try a M250L modem, because I never downloaded one and we all know that _that_ modem actually has different network connectivity and not “standard” WCDMA.

This leads me to the conclusion that the modems (the hardware) on the M250x are different from the i9100. I don’t know of any hardware difference between the M250S and M250K models yet.

Let me also state that I saw a bunch of second hand i9100 phones, where I got my i9100-modems-to-try-list from. I also bumped into a dumb dealer which insisted Korean S2 are inferior and don’t work in HK.

I had it running now for three weeks, I use it a lot, even tethering (USB; wifi didn’t work once), GPS. I didn’t try bluetooth. (I don’t even believe they require the modem.) I had two weeks the ...K-version now I’m on M250SKSJME1.

Tomorrow I enter China mainland again. I guess I can leave the modem, but I’m ready to flash the i9100-thing from before.
