They are all stock tw4 roms.

They all come from samsung, leaks.

K is the year, E G H etc is the month of releases.

H august, G is July, and so on and so forth.

You will lose any random bloatware o2 added.

The guide in the cf root thread and in the thread with all the stock roms, see my first post with both links.

Hi,

Right, have flashed XXKG5.

But I now see these in my firmware info:

Baseband version:

I9100XXKDJ

and

Kernel version:

2.6.35.7-I9100XXKG5-CL420550

se.infra@SEP-41 #2

Build number:

GINGERBREAD.XWKE1

My question is, should the baseband or build numbers have changed?

Only the Kernel version has changed. ???

Thanks,

D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dman2011:
Ok, sorted that last thing, I booted into the wrong mode.

Done a flash again with the KG5. Now, I see this my my firmware details:

Andriod Version: 2.3.4

Baseband version I9100XXKG5

Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XXKG5-CL420550

se.infra@SEP-41 #2

Build Number: GINGERBREAD.XXKG5

Are these all correct?

What different / new in KG5 to KE1 (which is what was on the phone)??

Assuming this is now all correct, what's the easiest way to root this phone now?

Which zip do I need to download for the rooting (I don't know which link to use??)

Do I need to download just the kernel for KG5 too??

I apologise if this is already in instructions but I have a learning disability and find some of this hard to follow.

And do I need to do something to remove a yellow triangle or something!???

Thx

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
Yes thats fine, KG5 isnt the newest, but its better than KE1.

Since KE1 they have fixed some of the battery drain issues with stock apps, seemingly improved performance, android 2.3.4 over 2.3.3.

Samsung dont put out changlogs so we dont know what they changed, just what we can see that's different.

To root flash this kernel (direct download link) in the PDA section of odin.

Yellow triangle just means you are running a custom rom, in this case kernel. If you dont mind if you dont need to remove it.

The easiest way to remove it is to use a USG jig, they sell them on ebay.

Or you can flash your stock kernel back, from here (direct download link) password Password: intratech@XDA and taken from his thread.

You wont lose root but you will lose CWM recovery.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dman2011:
Ok, I followed the link to get to a further link: [17.08.2011][CF-Root v4.1] KE2/7/8, KF1/2/3/4, KG1/2/3/5/6/7, KH1/3 - su+bb+CWM4 - xda-developers

First, is this correct?

Second, in that thread, it says:

"Instructions - ODIN (long)

- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!

- Unzip the attached CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.zip"

But I can't seem to find an attached file?? Don't know what/where to get this?

Also, will I need to use SuperOneClick - and which version should I use?

Thanks,

D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
See my post just above with direct links to the correct files.

You dont need SuperOneClick.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dman2011:
If I get a USB jig, will I still lose CWM recovery?

Do I need to keep CWM recovery?

Thx,

D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dman2011:
...would I definitely lose CWM Recovery if I only reflash the kernel - not the entire firmware?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netchip:
The best way to root is CWM kernel from codeworkx, or Hellcat kernel from HellcatDroid.

I dont have my SGS2 rooted but CyanogenMod is very nice!

Few issues with bluetooth and a minor bugs, but it is awesome!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dman2011:
I've updated firmware to KG5 but am experiencing some problems and have some questions.

First off, here are the problems I am getting (I did *not* have these in my original firmware, KE1):-

- Performance issue, notable delay/lag whilst loading the Android Marketplace app and other apps

- Performance issue: battery usage shows display using around 44%. This was nearer 33% in KE1.

- General battery performance has worsened

- Messaging app has crashed more than once

- Buddies/Buddies Now - buddies on home screen keep "losing" assigned contacts & images

- Screen keeps lighting up at seemingly random times when it's just on the table, without touching or moving it, but with no notifications (why??)

Now for my questions...

- Although there was no mention of this in the instructions I followed, should I have done a "full wipe" before upgrading the firmware?

- After doing the upgrade from O2 branded KE1 to generic KG5, are there any settings I need to change or apply?

- It struck me that, surely the android O/S uses some form of temporary files. Should these not be wiped/cleared in a new firmware has been flashed? Is there some sort of temp store or cache?

In recovery mode, this is what I see:

-- Copying media files...

Successfully copied media files.

# MANUAL MODE #

-- Updating application...

Successfully updated application.

-- Applying Multi-CSC...

Installing Multi-CSC

Can't access to '/system/csc/O2U/system/'.

Successfully applied multi-CSC.

​

Is what I am seeing correct?

What about the 'Can't access' line?

I have been searching the web a bit and seemed to have found quite a number of people who have had problems post-upgrade - not just to KG5, but flashing other firmwares too. There must be some reason for this and these problems.

I would appreciate any help or advice anyone can offer.

Thank you,

Darren

Can I still just flash KG5 or KH3 in the same way as I did before?

Do I need to do anything on the handset before flashing again now?

Is this still using Odin & c-f-root?

Do you know which files/link to use for KH3 & c-f-root for KH3? I'm not sure which ones.

Do I not need to then flash the KH3 kernel again, to get a stock kernel back? (I'd still have root wouldn't I?)

Today, two apps have just 'stopped' again (crashed I guess) - one of which was just a live wallpaper. Something can't be right for apps to be stopping like this surely?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dman2011:
How do I do the factory reset on the phone and what will that do? (i.e., what will it reset or wipe?)

Will it affect the SD card? What of the O2 settings etc, settings for mobile network, internet & mms etc?

If I flash KH3 as described above, can I still revert back to an earlier version afterwards? If so, how hard is it to do that?

Apps are crashing still (seemingly at random). Had 3 in total today stop.

The battery life is literally being eaten, and I've only been using the phone for texting today. Definitely wasn't the same on the original firmware. I'm just a bit concerned about it.

personally i am not very anxious for the latest firmwares for OTHER CSC.

so i update from KIES (KF3) in my case.

then flash an insecure kernel KF3 via Odin.

root it thereafter... superoneclick etc...

this way whenever next update will show up in KIES will install that..

get the insecure kernel for the same and life goes on...

i use root explorer for fiddling with the default apps..

I received a notification from Rom Manager about an update of the ClockWorkMod. It says that 5.0.1.0 version is now available!

I have a 3.0.x.x version, tried to update but...no way to boot in recovery mode!! So I'm back to 3 version.

Anybody with the same issue? Should I first update to 4.x.x.x version for update correctly? Or Should I perform a wipe first? :confused:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roscopcoletrain:
In Rom Manager down the bottom under All CLockworkmod recoveries, flash an older version of recovery, then after that, at the top, flash the new version. You should be good after that.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gioyann:
I already had a 3.x version...and down the Rom Manager Menu there is nothing between 3.x and 5.0.1.0 version!! I have already flashed the 3.x version from the bottom menu...re-flashing the new version from the top sounds to be the same action I did at first update!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roscopcoletrain:
I beleive its just the order that you do it.

I flashed the 3.0.2.4 at the bottom, then the 5.0.1.0 at the top and she goes into recovery just fine. However when I updated from the old version directly to the new update, I lost recovery, like you.

[Epic 4G Themes] shane6374:
It would depend on which rom you are using. On Deca's you need to extract the framework-res.apk on your card, then copy it over the existing apk in the system/framework. Your phone will automatically restart, and look a bit weird while doing it, but it will start and the bat mod will be there. I used root explorer.

The flash method worked fine for me on crawrj's odin rom just not on deca's.
[Epic 4G Themes] Shinydude100:
Yeah I believe I'm on deca's.

Just did a copy over using super manager. Root access and all. No reboot..copied frame work-res.. No dice.

Just dalvik wiped 3 times, still no dice. Now checking if I have 2 copies if framework res in system app.

There's dice!!!

(Though you can tell half of the following by checking out my sig. Lol)

I'm on EH17 obviously. Deodexed. Deca's version of it. CWM Flashed this, only CRT worked. I flashed Shane's Battery Mod, no dice. Until I copied the framework-res from this zip, (which includes shane's batt % mod,) and dropped it in system/framework. So both CRT & Batt % Mod work. With root access obviously. I now understand that peeps are getting no dice on the mod wtith Hurricaine's Rom. I'm on stock.
