[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efraip:
My question is fairly simple.

I have installed various ROMs and kernels, and have used CWM of various different model numbers (which some work and some dont) and now I am quite curious what the ACTUAL hardware model # of my phone is.

I am not talking about checking what the model number is INSIDE THE PHONE SOFTWARE OR UNDER THE BATTERY! (my phone is GT-i9100T btw)...because this is only dependent on what ROM/Kernel you install and can change.

Originally when I first got my phone it said the model number was GT-i9100TxxKJ1 - the small "xx" is actually something else

that I cant even remember anymore

.

When I tried to install a KJ1 CWM over it to start rooting it - IT DIDNT WORK. So, I got a KJ3, KI1, and KI3 all of which worked fine. However, they also changed my phone's "baseband" version when looking up info about phone in settings to the same letters, respectively. Also, they removed the "T" from the main model number ie: GT-i9100 shows up at boot, and no longer GT-i9100T.

Now I am trying to install a very good ROM/Kernel that will improve battery life and remove all the bloatware apps (I've tried to do that with hyperdroid, CM7, Villian, and many others, but apparently bloat is still there, and/or battery is still fairly miserable). The problem is that I dont really know what my real phone model is. I also want to install the correct version of CWM and I'd really like my phone to use the correct drivers.

So my final questions are:

How do I determine what actual model #'s my phone has??

(ie: UXKJ1, UGKI3, ZVKG2, etc.)

And----

Is it even important/necessary to know the exact phone's model #'s or can I use more recent updated pda/modem/csc firmware that perhaps even give better performance?

Thank you very much for help, in advance.

I also followed up and googled the suggested "morfics kernel thread" to find info regarding this issue but found nothing.

Thought I'd mention this, as this is also my first post here. ;-)

To find your model take your battery out and its under there. I cant comment on the T variant as im not sure if its different like the G version is different.

I9100T is the same as the I9100 for all intensive purposes. Slight difference in power of radio or something from memory. No difference so far as roms/kernels that can be used tho (Has same processor as I9100, etc).

Are you sure you are flashing a root kernel as they cannot flash a modem .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
You most likely have the i9100T. Basically flash anything you like, but if reception is bad flash a i9100T modem over the top of it.

As ricey1986 pointed out, the only way to be sure is to check the sticker under the battery.

Wow, seriously???

NOT ONE OF YOU ANSWERED MY QUESTION!!!

I Made it EXPLICITY clear what my question was and that it was NOT a question simply to ask if it was i9100T, or i9100, or i9100G...I dont care about that.

I want to know what my ENTIRE MODEL number is....How is it possible every single one of you missed that when I repeatedly made it clear that is what I was asking and NOT asking about the above single T/-/G variant. Information on that is widespread and easy to find and I already know it.

For a forum so dedicated to having people avoid asking questions already asked - MANY OF YOU APPARENTLY ANSWER QUESTIONS WITHOUT READING THEM!!

Once again: I want to know if my base phone is LUXKJ1, or XEOKI3 or etc etc etc....this is what my question asks!

PLEASE READ THE QUESTION BEFORE ANSWERING AND CLUTTERING UP A PERFECTLY GOOD QUESTION THREAD!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
I can almost guarantee you won't get the answer you're looking for after posting like a 3yr old. Notice how your thread has been ignored for the last 90 mins ?

There's a hint in that for you champ.

Edit to add - I've got a couple of nephews & nieces under 5 who behave better than you. But I know how kids can get sometimes, so I'm going to cut you a bit of slack. You might find what you're looking for in this thread or this thread. You're going to have to work the rest out on your own tho.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricey1986:
What a complete douche. If you would of had the good sense to write down your phone settings before Modding you wouldn't need to ask. Not only do you post like a 3 year old seems you have the intellect of one as well.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
Man, the reason you got so many varying answers is because no-one actually knows what the hell you are asking.

To be honest, I don't think you even know what you are asking. Or at least you haven't got a proper grasp of the terminology for the phone which has led to this confusion.

In the first paragraph of the OP you ask "and now I am curious what the ACTUAL hardware model # of my phone is".

Very simple, its a bloody i9100T.

Later you claim to have flashed various kernals which changed your baseband. Baseband only changes when you flash a modem, which for you is now most likely an i9100 MODEM which is not optimized for your phone.

Later you state again you don't know what your real phone model is (its an i9100T by the way) so that you can install the correct version of cwm and so your phone has the correct drivers.

Well, that's pretty confusing but the correct cwm version (or cf root version) for you is the version for whatever firmware you currently have.

Again in the final paragraph you ask what your actual model number is but provide a list of firmware versions.

Finally, based on your final sentence of the OP, yes it is very important what your exact phone model is but I suspect you meant firmware version because you talk about pda/modem/csc. You can flash pretty much any firmware version you like. And yes, generally the newer the better.

Now again in your reply you ask " Once again: I want to know if my base phone is LUXKJ1, or XEOKI3 or etc etc etc....this is what my question asks!"

Well, how would we know what firmware version you phone came with, you obviously flashed over it already.

Maybe explaining from what carrier / country etc it came from then maybe people can help you.

Anyway, that all means ****. You have an i9100T and you can flash whatever you like but may need to flash a T modem if reception is bad.

Over and out, and grow up. You wont be getting much help if your react that way to people at least attempting to answer your " PERFECTLY GOOD QUESTION THREAD'.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efraip:
tl;dr and double post....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efraip:
Thank you, very much.

And yes, I am not an expert at this, hence my presence here in Q&A. I've spent 2 days searching for answers before posting here.

Yes that also does mean my question might be a bit off. I'm an engineer though so have alot more technical ability than most, so its going to be very apparent that others might have this same issue/question.

1) I'm not concerned with what firmware my phone shipped with originally - but rather what actual hardware it is.

2) I know the difference between i9100, i9100G and i9100T.

3) I wasnt aware of the differences between all the various hardware #'s such as XWKJ1, ZVKG3, etc. -- apparently I was wrong anyway and those are simply firmware ID's and not hardware ID's. That clears alot of things up.

4) If I understand correctly from your answer - it doesnt matter what firmware I use, as long as it works. I can use any ROM or Kernel I want as long as they match, and can flash any PDA/Modem/CSC I want as long as they also match/work in my phone. As you said, the newer the better.

This is the answer I was looking for, thanks for clearing it up.

I am putting on ICS and CM9 now, and will also try out the other ICS builds. I was simply worried that I might use a modem firmware or something that is made for a different hardware piece which then could cause some damage in my phone.

Last phones I did development for were WinCE and java based, over 8 years ago, as I'm mainly a software engineer. This is the first smart-phone I have.

Thanks again for your answer and I had no intention to make it confusing, there were simply some terminology and such issues I wasnt clear on.

That also makes it more clear as to why people were confused on my question. So I appologize for that.

It seemed to me that nobody read my question as I explicitly said I am not asking for whether it is an i9100/T/G because thats fairly obvious and imprinted on the phone (physically).

So the moral of the story is Google Google Google:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
Hey man, glad you now understand why so many of us weren't able to answer you correctly, but really it came down to your tone in the reply. Anyway, we are a pretty forgiving community so let's forget about it and move on.

With the i9100T you can flash any i9100 rom from whatever region etc. Yes some things do need to match but I don't even bother with csc because for me it makes no difference. It really only helps if you want to receive your carrier upgrades from kies which I dont even use anymore. Csc also can include carrier bloatware but I prefer an unbranded phone. So if you want your carrier's crap, then csc is important.

And yes roms and kernals do need to match but in some cases you can use 1 kernal across multiple roms, like the siyah and speedmod kernals. Cf root on the other hand most often need to match the rom. With the Samsung ics leaked roms, I think kernals can also be mixed and matched so long as they are Samsung ics kernals. Anyway, all custom roms come with a functional kernal built in so no need to change it, unless you prefer another one.

For me, also with the T version, the only thing I have to worry about is the modem as the i9100 modems give poor reception for my carrier. So basically if I flash stock, custom, miui or cm roms, I need to reflash the T modem for better reception. I been able to use that modem on any firmware I've tried.

Hope this clears things up a little. I see you are now getting a hang on the terminology but yeah, at first it can be quite confusing.

Is it possible that you can change your android OS to IOS or Android OS to Windows?

I can imagine that apple has invested a lot of time and money into making sure that iOS remains firmly on the devices it wants it on.

I don't know about windows, I'm sure somebody somewhere is clever enough to do it. Don't know why you'd want to though, it'd be horrible.
[General Questions and Answers] f0rex:
One word: No.

That is impossible. iOS and WP7 are close source so it can't be ported, because no developer but Apple and MS know how to write the drivers etc. etc.

if you really want it, you should get a custom launcher from the market or buy another phone.

MIUI or CM7?

Im confused.

I just want a ROM for games, music, books, movies. etc.

Which one is better anyway?
[Kindle Fire General] damianarnold:
Personally speaking I'd go for an optimized stock or CM7, MIUI is not a tablet ROM, IMHO it's a poor man's iOS copy.

CM7 is faster and funnily enough more reliable, however the draw of the Amazon side of it has brought me back to an optimized stock.
[Kindle Fire General] ontwowheels:
I think I agree about optimized stock. I have been checking out the ICS ROM, and it is pretty slick....but for every day use I think I am staying with optimized stock.
[Kindle Fire General] huchman:
MoDaCo gr6 with go launcher is a great Combo.
[Kindle Fire General] aidanklenk:
I am using CM7 and i love it. I didn't like kindle stock, though. so if you like that, i would just get an optimized stock.

CM7 is more android tablet, like.

as far as i know, MIUI is pretty much iOS but for android. it looks cool, but CM7 seems to be better.

But, when ICS finally works, it's going to blow the others out of the water.

It's in beta right now, and has some bugs, but they're going to fix those before the final release.

if you want to try that one, it's a good idea.

it's very pretty, and the most Tablet-like.

I'm switching to it the second final release comes out.
[Kindle Fire General] Astrobrewer:
I like CM7 for every day use. Modified stock was good, but would not connect to AD-hoc wifi wireless tether running on my phone. ICS looks and feels great, but still has some issues.
