Are you sure you followed the instructions correctly? Like changing the permissions and adding the text "ON"? I am also using the latest OMEGA V15 and siyah kernel but don't have these problems. Try to look again at your keystr file and check if you made mistakes or forget to add something.[/QUOTE]

thanks for ansering me.yeh am sur of that.i m using dual boot.primary rom is cyanogen and i have no probleme with it;secondery rom is omega and the keystr file is here with fixing permissions.i wonder if when i went upgrade my samsung from ginjerbread to ics i use one package rom without pit file.is the probleme come from here,?

Pit does'nt have to do with it. Have you tried factory resetting your secondary rom? You need to do a factory reset after installing omega if you came from an aokp rom. I'm also using dual roms; omega as primary, alliance as secondary and got no problems so far. Try resetting your secibdary. If problem persist, maybe I think an aosp and an aokp rom cannot coexist with each other? :D I don't know really. Just reset and give me a feedback :)

factory reset you meen a full wip data cache/dalvik?i did it already.i told you the pit file because i flashed my device using odin and stock ics rom and do full wip and installing keystr file but still no lock screen.however when i use cyanogen o resurrection remix all thing are ok.even with dual rom
[Galaxy S II General] bibek86:
I am on 4.0.3. But there is no noticeable difference than from GB. Probably because of touchwiz. That is why i wanted to try stock ICS apps.
[Galaxy S II General] kaizer216:
Hmmm. Have you tried having a stock rom as your secondary rom? It could be a problem with OMEGA but not so sure. I don't actually experience this problem. You don't need to include the i9100 pit file again since you already had flashed it. You could just stay on one rom rather than switching between two roms if you really can't stand having no lock screen on your omega. Sorry, but I can't think of any other options :(

---------- Post added at 12:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 PM ----------

Well then you could try installing the ICS camera apk or you could just download and install ICS Camera app from the google playstore which is almost the same as the stock ICS camera :D

Hi everyone. First time poster here & I seriously need help.

I got galaxy s2 m250k today and turned it into I9100 following everything in this post. It worked great but now my phone won't make calls saying "emergency calls only." It worked just fine before. Three things to note: (1) I used I9100XEULP5 rom from sammobile; (2) I performed a factory reset using the keypad command *2767*3855# after the first phone reset after the "conversion"; and (3) when I tried to revert back to m250k in an attempt to solve this problem, the rom I downloaded from sammobile for m250k got "MD5 hash incorrect" error on Odin.

Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance!

EDIT: I resolved the issue by installing a custom ROM (the wonderful	[ROM][AOSP][4.0.4][IMM76I][05-06-12] F1 GalaxyNexus | Pure Galaxy Nexus Experience for the record). Now it works flawlessly! Can't thank both Kaiser and Faryaab, the author of GalaxyNexus ROM enough! cheers

???

Sorry for dumb question. I'm newbie

1. Can I install i9100 ICS rom to m250* I heard that some features doesn't work, like lockscreen etc.... (is that true ???)

2. Does it erase my phone number ( i mean no network) if I flash CDMA edition ????

3. Where to download m250* roms ??? (exept for 250k I saw that samfirmware already uploaded it)

4. Does it works great if i flash gingerbread of i9100 ????

5. Does it erase unlock ???? If it does ? How to unlock it again ?????

SOMEONE HELP ME ?????
[Galaxy S II General] kaizer216:
1. Yes. Lock screen doesn't work at first but there's already a solution for that. Search this thread(posted by memorycontroller)

2. No, but sometimes you need to do a factory reset which deletes your downloaded apps, messages, contacts and call logs. Just do a backup

3. Check this site http://goo.gl/yDrx3 It's in Korean. Just use google chrome and use the translate command if you cannot understand korean. There are two kinds, the rooting version and the official one. Be sure to download the rom for your CARRIER. Like SKT or KT

4. Yes, even ICS roms or custom roms from I9100 are compatible to our SHW-M250

5. No

If you have any other questions, just post or pm me :D

---------- Post added at 12:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 PM ----------

You could either install an sms app from the playstore(Go SMS or Handcent) or install a European 19100 rom to your phone to remove the irritating sms limit. Again, you could try to install GO contacts ex and look for the ICS theme. The best way is to install an I9100 rom to your phone :D

You cannot remove this as LQ5 is a leaked firmware so this might be diagnosis info.I also had this so i flashed it with 4.0.3 XWLP8 firmware and its now fine.Flash it with 4.0.3 firmware and it will disappear

---------- Post added at 02:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:42 PM ----------

For lockscreen and power options you can solve this prob by folllowing this

1. Using a root browser navigate to /efs/imei

2. Create file "keystr"

3. Open it as text and write "ON"

4. Set permissions to rwx rwx rwx

5. Reboot

Samsung still hasn't released officially any 4.0.4 ICS version. IT IS STIL LEAKED. It means it is not official and you might brick your phone if you flashed the leaked 4.0.4 ICS. Be very careful

---------- Post added at 09:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:32 AM ----------

TO EVERYONE: Do not FLASHED the LEAKED 4.0.4 ICS ROM YET since it is not official which means you can get various problems from it. Like getting a display of your PDA PHONE ETC on your homescreen. You might also bricked your phone if you don't know what you are doing. Better install the latest 4.0.3 XWLPG than the LEAKED 4.0.4 LQ5, LPM, LPO and LPL. Wait till Samsung officially release the 4.0.4 update. (I'm hoping the samsung would release a JellyBean update to S2. Fingers crossed)

hi

i have flashed 4.0.3 gti9100XXLPX and also rooted it to get the lock screen and power options. Phone is running smooth and im loving it. thankyou for the members here for help!

But now i have another question for the koreans s2 owners and that is our phones comes with an external anntena which seems much like an tv tuner ariel. am i right? if so then how can we setup Tv on our phones? any application or any method for that?

That is a DMB antenna. It can only be used on Korea or any other countries which supports DMB. It is an application included ONLY on the Korean ROM. It is used to watch tv channels and radio. :D

[Galaxy S II General] kaizer216:
As far as I know, it is an I9100 rom common fault. If you look at the Galaxy SII General thread, you can see posts about this problem. It could also be the rom you are using as of now. Try changing roms or try to look at custom roms who had fix this problem.
[Galaxy S II General] sefrcoko:
True, but if you know what you're doing then you'll be fine. I'm dual booting on siyah 3.5, with LPO 4.0.4 as primary rom and CM10 as my secondary rom. Happy days :D
[Galaxy S II General] kaizer216:
Yup. As long as you know what you're doing. Same here, dual booting with LPQ as primary and Omega as secondary. All I can say about the LPQ rom is wow. My phone lasted maybe 1.5 times longer than the previous official 4.0.3 roms. It does well considering it's official with all the bloatwares here and there. If anyone here wanna try the 4.0.4 rom, after flashing the said rom, flash a custom kernel like Siyah because LPO stock kernel is the root of all problems. :D

i was on i9100 4.0.3 XWLP8 and battery life was max 15hours.Now flashed siyah kernal and its very good
[Galaxy S II General] Styka:
Hi evryone..

I just bought a 250s, and currently it is upgraded to ics by itself through KIES.

But i want to root it so i can remove all the bloatwares that seem to eat up my battery quite horrificly..

So the question is, can i just root it using the siyah kernel right away ? Or do i have to install another rom first and then install the kernel to get my sgs2 rooted ?

The problem is I couldnt see what rom is applicable to this shw-250s.

Im afraid i might brick the phone, i've read the thread about installing kernels and roms, but i couldnt get a grasp of having a different model, and if is it ok to root and what has to be in sync to be successfully rooted.

Ive found out in page 104 like kaizer has clearly explained..

I totally understand, but will these firmwares from samfirmware.com work ?

Im trying to use the firmware from my country.

Or is it the pit files from kaizer that is important, and not the firmware ?

And do i have to install the 9100 firmware first and then install the siyah kernel ?

Im still very lost on what steps i should take first :(

Thank you, im very sorry for the very noobish question.
[Galaxy S II General] kaizer216:
You can install a pre-rooted m250s firmware which can be found here http://goo.gl/wknk9. Use google chrome to translate the page to english if you can't read Korean. Siyah kernel does not support the ICS version of M250s(only gingerbread). If you want to install siyah kernel, better turn your M250s to I9100.
[Galaxy S II General] Styka:
Wow thank you so much for the quick response kaizer..

So if i want to turn my 250s into an i9100 like yours, can i download the firmware from samfirmware, and choose the country i live in now ? Or it has to be a specific country ?

So if im correct, what i have to do is..

1. Turn my 250s into i9100 like you explained in page 104

2. Install a rooted rom

3. Install siyah kernel ?

Are those steps right ?
[Galaxy S II General] kaizer216:
Yes. You can choose the any country carrier. You actually do not need to install a rooted rom. After flashing Siyah kernel or CF kernel, your phone will be rooted with CWM. If you would like, try custom ROMS. Some are great. :D

[Galaxy S II General] Styka:
Kaizer, i just finished changing my set to i9100, and installed siyah kernel..

All is well, but now when I'm trying to download ES Explorer, it failed to download.

So I did a factory reset, and now it wouldn't boot, it just stays black after the yellow triangle ?

What did I do wrong ?

So I'm now back to my original ROM with stock kernels, and all is well, but I can't get my lock screen and power button to work, that's why I followed your instruction on fixing it with the ES explorer..
[Galaxy S II General] kaizer216:
Try going to settings>applications>all>google play store>clear data ang clear cache. If it still persists, try using a different custom ROM.

Have you fixed it already? Your lockscreen I mean? If you have done it once, you do not need to do it again every time you flash a different ROM or kernel. Be sure that you are rooted and on the settings of ES, tick the root explorer,mount file system and the Up to Root.
[Galaxy S II General] Styka:
Yep, I fixed it now, i used the cfroot kernel and things boot up properly now.

I'm just trying to get siyah to work :D

but anyways, thank you so much kaizer, helped me tons !!

Im grateful for having your help from the start.

Wish there's more to just giving thanks :)

Light Sensor

Hi all,

I have a M250S. When running on Stock Korean ROM everything is fine. But when I convert it to i9100 (by wipping data and flash i9100 tar file with pit file), some of sensors don't work (proximity sensor and light sensor). I test with Z Device, it can read the sensor information (like name, vendor, power...). When using *#0*#, in sensor's section, I can saw the light sensor and proximity sensor but only the button, without value. When clicking on button, it does a force-close.

Any one met same problem? I try Siyah kernel for i9100 ICS lastest updated but no chance. I flash CM9-CM10 for i9100 but the problem still exist.

Thank all.

after replying so many PMes about various bugs of KOR i9100 when using INTL version's kernel/ROM...my tip to you guys is if you can find the INTL version of an Android phone, buy it - the KOR/JAP versions are usually (way) cheaper in some countries (notably here in Vietnam) but they don't worth your time and headaches solving so many problems

(this doesn't apply to the Nexus though, the KOR version of the Nexus is basically the same as the INTL one, except for the model number)

Hi. Hopeing someone can help. I can no longer able to enable usb mass storage on my m250k ics phone. Rooted. Was working before but recently Ive noticed when I plug in the cable the phone does not recgonise its plugged into a pc via usb. Charging still works. Ive tried different cables, factory reset, debugging mode on and off.. Still no dice. I found a solution mentioning to try *#7284# (gives the options of modem/pda) however doing so does nothing. Maybe cause we are using korean variant? My question is there another code to do the same thing or another solution I have not tried?

Also cannot flash in odin cause the phone does not recgonise usbㅠㅠ

Thanxs

update:

So I found how to access the setting: I should enter "319712358" then it asks for a password "774632"..

However, after changing from modem to pda, and vice verse, back and forth, also restarting multiple times. Still I can not access USB Mode. So, I decided to see if I can at the very least still use odin, and I can. So I proceeded to reflash the latest firmware. Still not working.. I again re-flashed firmware this time repartitioning. And still not working.

So Im at a loss, I know the USB works because I can use odin. But once Android is booted up I just doesn't see that its connected to a USB.
