This says to back up EFS before thinking about flashing. To do this you need ADB go here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1068193

To install ADB, it requires BusyBox. (This phone does not appear to have anthing labeld BusyBox) To install BusyBox you must Root your Phone.

Ok Skip EFS backup.

WHAT FILE DO I USE???

In this thread Chainfire uses an example which does not match mine. The description he gave what slightly modified kernal sounds good.

MY KERNEL version is 2.6.35.14-Siyah-v2.6.2+gm@ubuntu #109

I don't see any letters to match! I don't want to pick a foreign one as it may not be the right language and/or frequency.

Following second link from Wik22 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1126522

I have tried the Volume down, home and Pwr button. Careful not to touch the pwr button first. The phone only shuts off cable plugged in or not. There is a download mode inside CWM Manager v3.0, should this be used? does this restrict choices for a Root or Kernal?

Summary. Don't have an EFS backed up, no busybody or ADB, both apparently, both need a root and all roots don't seem to be equal. Since there is an unknown number of roots or kernals done to this phone, the last version may not be the original version to revert to.

Goal working phone near stock on a path to IceCreamSandwich if it matters. I need a boot into download mode which is NOT Volume down, home and Pwr button as it does not work.

What root/kernal do I need? (no don't refer me to that same page)

Please post a link to a file I can use for ATT and US in English.

If a Moderator or a group endeavour to compile a concise page tree to explain all of the different paths to root or flash variations and which to choose for stable releases, somehow the noob Droid world would owe you a debt.

I want to Thank Ctomgee for following and answering even though I haven't figured it out yet.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
This is a VERY long reply... make sure to read the whole thing before you do ANYTHING.

You won't find for USA or ATT, as the international version was never released in this region, for any carrier. ATT has their own version.

Based on what you said in post 26, chances are, you have an unbranded international I9100. You want to go to this thread for the stock unbranded firmwares.

I meant the one in General of S2 below, yes.

Yes, you can skip this for now.

This is mostly useful reference.

The reason it doesn't match yours is because the previous owner of your phone already installed Siyah kernel, which is a custom, non-Samsung signed kernel.

The thread for Siyah is here.

If you want to go back to a CF-Root kernel, you will need to find one that is most appropriate for your firmware. Since you are on a custom firmware right now (CriskeloROM Gingerbread v34), you should FIRST flash back to a stock firmware before worrying about CF-Root.

Sounds like you're trying to do this when the phone is ON. You need to turn the phone OFF, then do Vol-down + home + Power.

You can use this when the phone is on to get to download mode easier, yes.

No.

Again, do this when power is OFF. It does nothing but turn the phone off if it's already ON.

If this does NOT work when power is off, then you need a USB jig to get to download mode. Google them, you can find them on eBay for $3 or less.

Ok, order of operation is important here. You're going 'round in circles, but your starting point is somewhere in the middle, so it's easily confusing.

You want to get back to stock, yes? Before you start, I'd recommend a full wipe/factory reset.

1. Go to Intratech's official unbranded firmware thread.

2. Choose one and download. I'm on XXKI3 from Poland, but this is an older version. I just haven't had a reason to upgrade yet. You can use XWLA4 from Germany, this is the latest one. Download the line that says "DBT (Germany):https://rapidshare.com/files/9058959...I9100DBTKH1.7z"

3. In that same thread, follow instructions in post 1 under the heading "Flashing Firmware with Odin" (but I'd recommend reading ALL of post 1 for full understanding)

If you don't want to root, you're done. If you do want root:

4. Go to Chainfire's CF-Root thread.

5. Find and download the kernel appropriate to the firmware you used in step 2. (It is explained under "Help! What file do I use ?" in the CF-Root thread. If you used XWLA4, for example, then download the LA4 insecure kernel - CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXA_LA4-v5.0-CWM5.zip)

6. flash using instructions in post 1 of that thread under heading "Instructions - ODIN (long)"

Hello,

I try to downgrade from ICS LPB 4.0.3 to Gingerbread LA4 2.3.6 with Odin and the file from this topic.

When I, in the Setup Wizard a "Force close" error apears and I can't pass this error. :(

Any solutions?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Try a factory reset.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apashi:
I can't pass Setup Wizard at all! So I can't make a factory reset! :(

Other ideea?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Boot to recovery (vol up + home + power), wipe data, wipe cache.

Although, sounds like you're describing exactly what moseus was getting after his first boot. He said above he had to power off once, and it didn't happen after that. Have you tried that???
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apashi:
I tried power off and on, nothing new! :(

I put back ICS and worked just fain!

...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
You're not giving many details. I have doubts you're following all the directions.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apashi:
Back with details:

- download LA4

- downgrade from LPB to LA4 with ODIN (forget SIM inside :( )

- everything went well, until de Setup Wizard, were I can't pass cause all the errors that appear

- power OFF, power ON, but the errors perssist

- reflash with LPB and everything is back normal now

The problem is that I need GPS, and in ICS it does not work yet!

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Flash CF root for LPB if one exists, enter recovery wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache, then enter download mode and reflash LA4.

:confused:

Ok hello everyone i got a huge problem in my hands. I bought a HTC HD2 for my girlfriend and proceeded to go through the awesome process of flashing all the recoveries and what not.

Its currently sitting with latest MAG/HARDSPL and latest MIUI rom working great.

The biggest issue i have encountered is the fact that the signal is horrible, wont go over 2 bars EVER, unless it drops all the way down and switches over to Edge then has full bars (witch i don't get) She gets a connection to H for maybe 15 seconds then drops to 3G then drops to nothing.

Funniest thing is once you pick it up you can see the bars just go way down, i have goggled like a madman, researched the most i can, tried different Radio and Rom combinations.

We both are under the Simple Mobile network and i have a G2x and the signal is perfect on my phone her struggles wherever we go :(

I've been reading this guide and i might decide to do this, unless someone with the same issue has found a different solution to the issue.

I figured I'd make a wish list for the perfect phone that I would trade my og evo for.

A build like the tp2... Yes a physical keyboard

no need for a kickstands with tilting screen

Front camera

dual core processor

gig of ram

expandable memory up to 32gb

Sense 3.0

3d not necessary but cool

Unlocked bootloader

And I'd be happy

what would you trade your of evo for?

[EVO 4G General] sharkboy0901:
My perfect device is:

Same build as evo 4g

With power button a little bit popped out more and volume popped up more as well

1080 resolution super amoled plus screen, kickstand,4.5in,dedicated camera buttons, quad core processer with intense graphics capabilities for gaming, 16 gig internal, 4 gig ram,8meg camera(dual for 3D), 3meg front facing camera, expandable 32 gig SD,sense 3.0 ,radio that can handle every carrier like wimax,LTE,edge etc. And unlocked bootloader.

Edit: add Dolby digital sound with hdmi, gorilla glass, and music player with advance equalizer And digital dj, and that can unlock only with your retinal signature meaning by scanning your eye.

[EVO 4G General] hercules rockefeller:
I like the TP2's form factor as well. That might get a little big for my ideal phone since I'd be looking at around a 5" display, but I personally don't mind carrying around a bigger phone. Everyone said the TP2 was too big whenever I showed it to them, until the saw me play movies on it. And lots of reviewers thought the EVO would be too big before it was released. Nowadays it's almost the default size for a top of the line smartphone.

Other than that, I'll go with the suggestions above but add one feature: dual micro SDXC slots, with at least one of them accessible without removing the battery. SDXC just because my 32 GB SDHC card is getting full, and dual cards to make it easier to move files between devices and maintain spare data capacity. You could keep all your apps on one card, and any files / media that you might need to move around on the second one. That way if you've filled up your phone with music / movies / tv, you can carry a spare card in a micro SD reader on your keychain and have nearly as much media as you want with you at all times. and if you want to share with a friend, just swap out your micro SD cards and copy to your primary card.
[EVO 4G General] Crossrocker:
How about something possible? ;D

Super amoled plus 4" screen

Gorilla glass

Aosp(Google phone)

8 or higher mpx camera(REALLY, REALLY good camera)

Dual led flash

Dedicated camera button, solid like evo 3d

Physical buttons, instead of capacatative

Chrome back

1.2 dual core Sammy chip

Sammy gpu

1750 mah battery

Rectangular phone(no curves)

Front facing 2 mpx camera

USB/HDMI port

SD card slot, accessible without removing battery

1 gb ram

And that's about my perfect phone. Closest I'm gonna get is sgs2

Btw is it possible to have retina resolution with super smiled plus? If so, I'd also want that

Deck's + SZ + SuperCharger script + ViperMod script.

(like Nokia N8) 12 megapixel back camera sensor (backlit) with Xenon flash and MyTouch 4G Slide's Instant Capture technology

3 - 5 megapixel front facing camera

AOSP Ice Cream Sandwich

Tegra (Wayne Series) clocked at ??? with its amazing GPU

SD slot accessible without pulling battery (SDHC-capable)

2-stage camera button

1750 mah battery

Capacitive/Physical buttons are rendered useless in ICS, so don't need them

Industrial design - no curves, looks like a beast

Made by Motorola - metal/metal designing, no squeaking or light leakage, great build quality

Kickstand: stability of the Photon's (you can flip it over and it works) and the thickness of the Thunderbolt (I don't want some skinny little kickstand - peace of mind)

On Sprint.

Unlocked bootloader.

5. Build quality like the sensation. Rounded, solid, somewhat elegant

6. 12-16mpx camera 4x led flash with all the nicestuffs built into the software (panorama, macro, hdr etc) 3-5mpx on the front. With all the nice stuffs also. And front flash

7. At least twenty or thirty hours battery stock.

8. Nfc 2.0, Bluetooth 3.x, wireless n extreme with 5ghz, lte, a really damned good 3g radio, fingerprint/ face recognition,

9. Dual noise cancelling mics and a third on top like the 3d, stereo speakers,

10. 10gigs internal with a stock 32gb micro sd class 10

Call me nuts but I honestly think this isn't far off. If i went back in time and showed my self my 3d when I had my g1, I'd be in awe.
