That makes no sense hmmm.
[Member-Found Deals] moe3754:
I just tried and it says $649.99 to upgrade, guess only a lucky few!!
[Member-Found Deals] come at me bro:
it said 300 but didnt give me the option to upgrade just a new line
[Member-Found Deals] Auxilium:
According to the sales rep it's not a mistake lol

I'm 10 months away from my next upgrade so the 6 month discount thing is still a pretty far away.
[Member-Found Deals] eowyn:
I just made a line upgrade last December but was able to pre-order the White Note with the flip case for Note for $ 299.00 the case not sure if $ 50.00 last Feb 7, order is under process, not sure if its a glitch.
[Member-Found Deals] SII 2 Envy:
We should get enough people to call and complain some of us can't get that price lol.
[Member-Found Deals] :
Yes it is. Same for me! Fing lame. I wanted to get a refurbished sgs2 fro 10 bucks but it was only available in consumer store and we have to go through premier ... same with the note! Stupid because if I'm premier and want something from consumer store it should be available to me!

Excuse me sir but how does that make no sense?

Just for the sake of proving you wrong, I got the phone December 15th. We can all agree that that is the middle of the month.

Fast forward 30 days, you're now in the middle of January. My 30 day return window expired then. It is now February.

If you're talking about "Does anybody know if this offer will remain even after the pre order is over? I don't have the money now but would really like to get one of these", it's pretty plain english.

I'm asking if the $300 deal is only for pre-orders or if it's available after the pre-order

Example: I can go to the AT&T website in March and I can order it for $300 even if I'm still on contract.

Please elaborate more on how it makes no sense?
[Member-Found Deals] SII 2 Envy:
Thanks for writing an article was that really necessary? I misunderstood your first sentence that's all. You can call AT&T for your answer since none of us have the phone yet remember its only pre-order those questions can be answered by customer service... have a nice day :)

I had the same problem. I was on a business plan because I work for the US Navy and was getting a small discount. I canceled that so that I just had a regular plan and 15 min later I went in and bought it for $299.
[Member-Found Deals] :
How small a discount . I hate how premium keeps you from the regular deals that's so stupid. But my employer discount is 30% so I'd rather have that almost ....

Sorry man this is only during pre order. I upgraded in November and I too have a $299 option so of course I got one. But this happened last year with the Atrix and after launch day I checkedmy wifes line (which previously showed the $199 also) showed full no commitment pricing. If I were you I try and get $321(tax) as fast as I can. Just my two cents!
[Member-Found Deals] :
Normally i would but my infuse is serving its purpose for now and i have an upgrade in may or june so the note hopefully will be down to 199. Though the fact i can save that upgrade and still get the 299 now is tempting ....

Dayum. So if jm not eligible for an upgrade, I can get the note and 2 years will not be added to my contract?
[Member-Found Deals] CyberGhos:
Be careful, if you don't go thru upgrade, you still can purchase the phone @ $299 but your rate plan will change including loss of grandfathered unlimited data plan.

I have Premier and it still wants to charge me $650.00 for the stupid pre order, I will just stick with my Skyrocket!!!
[Member-Found Deals] Kant Phaze Me:
You eligible for upgrade? Cause if you're not you have to pay retail.
[Member-Found Deals] :
Only have to pay retail If you are premier it's dumb other users not on premier with no upgrade got 299 price. Buy premier with no upgrade and get retail wtf att

Guess it also depends how long you been with them. I just opened an account less than 60 days ago but go figure.
[Member-Found Deals] nibras_reeza:
You people should buy as many as possible for 299$ and sell them off to make some cash. =P
[Member-Found Deals] kirdroid:
But you have to sign 2 year contract on each line you take. So I don't see buying as many as possible is useful or profitable :)
[Member-Found Deals] nibras_reeza:
There are people who actually need the lines out there, aren't they?

Plus, you can sell it at maybe 499$ for upgrades as opposed to 699$ other people would get together with the line itself.
[Member-Found Deals] eikiel:
I just tried it yesterday, went through fine, and got an email back today that I exceeded the number of lines I can purchase online so I think it is a no-go for me!

Too bad, it would have been a great deal.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhxkinMassacre:
Right so I got the new radios and the battery is terrible compared to the previous radios. So can I just flash the old ones and everything will be good? I'm just asking because I know in calks thread it says some radios are not able to be downgraded and I don't want to have a second bricked evo...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] {ParanoiA}:
I'm pretty sure you can change to whatever radio you want. In that thread, the only things that say not downgradable are hboots. I would flash any radio the bootloader way and never ever do a battery pull during a radio flash.

Not Sent
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m20120:
I just went through the same thing. I upgraded to the radio and kernel from the latest OTA and I was seeing much less battery life. It could be just my imagination but I downgraded both to be sure. You could just downgrade the radio but you may want to reflash your kernel even if you are not downgrading the kernel. He has a note there that a radio flash sometimes required a kernel reflash. Then wipe cache and Dalvik as always before rebooting.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NateWnz:
I did the mistake of attempting to install this pre rooted kernel: STOCKPLUS-GT-I9100-XXLPB-KERNEL-ROOTED through Odin.¨

I couldn't find a version that matched my kernel gingerbread.XXKL5 so I thought it would be okay to just install any kernel with the same android 2.3.6 version.

All I wanted was to root my phone, now my phone won't even boot. I think it's stuck on a bootloop ? It goes to the samsung warning triangle screen and stays there.

My phone doesn't seem to be able to enter recovery mode. However, it can enter download mode ..

I'm finding this whole rooting business slightly difficult. I'm in over my head. Please, assist me.

Kind regards,

Nate.

* UPDATE: Managed to reset my phone using the steps detailed by Ctomgee (my hero) I thought my phone was done for. Again, thanks everyone for the invaluable assistance you guys have provided! I even got back all my apps and data :D

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: Back from the dead.

Now I'm kind of scared to try but if anyone could explain exactly how to root the i9100G version I'd be much obliged ..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
Surely STOCKPLUS-GT-I9100-XXLPB-KERNEL would be 4.0.3. rather than 2.3.6?

If you're a noob, why ignore all the stickies and FAQ and jump straight for some random kernel?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NateWnz:
I was reading a lot of posts via xda dev forum and someone linked to that kernel and I dunno what I was thinking. Apparently I wasn't thinking at all. SORRY. Now how do I fix this? =(

Before you make things worse, are you even sure you have an I9100? A quick search for XXKL5 revealed I9100G as more likely.

You can try KL3 from Chainfire's CF-Root thread. Should work. Or just use Siyah or Speedmod, and be done with it.

I really appreciate your assistance guys. And if I ever recover this phone I vow not to do stupid uninformed mistakes like this ever again :P
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Yup. There are MANY different SII's... Most have completely different model numbers. GT-I9100 and GT-I9100G are similar, but have different chipsets, so are not compatible for firmwares. Take very good care you only flash things meant for the I9100G.

---------- Post added at 05:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:36 PM ----------

That is forced download mode. Means you have to flash something to get it working again.

As long as you can get to download mode, it's not hopeless.

Try this.

Thanks! Just completet step 2. Repartition with Odin successfully!

I experienced it last weekend. Bricked!

Having the same issue mistaken I9100G for I9100 and flashed Kernel based on I9100. Initially hanged at the Samsung logo with Yellow Triangle when reboot the phone it shows Phone---Exclamation----PC.

Searched and tried almost everything except sending to MobileTech.

After days of trying I resend it back to Samsung Service Centre claiming got the Logo after updating new FW from Kies.

With no questions asked from Service Centre, they restored my phone the next day.

I would advice you to send it back to service centre if you run outta options.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Probably not... The G variant was only sold in those regions you're finding, as far as I know. Just use the I9100GOLCKL3 Malaysia one, it looks like the latest one. They'll all have english.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NateWnz:
Strange, since I purchased it from a swedish online retailer. But thanks will try the Malaysia firmware.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NateWnz:
I actually feel slightly cheated since the product advertised is clearly the S2 with dual core see

http://www.bazula.se/Samsung-Galaxy/Samsung-Galaxy---mobiler/Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-i9100.htm

Read " Dual Core Processor på 1,2 Ghz "

According to my knowledge, the i9100G is actually limited to single core and is clocked at 1Ghz ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
It is dual core, 1.2. Just a different processor. Tegra instead of Exynos. Different GPU as well. Power VR instead of Mali.

EDIT: This is actually why firmwares are incompatible between the phones. The different chipset.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NateWnz:
So I shouldn't feel cheated for paying for an i9100 phone and receiving a i9100G ? I mean isn't the G inferior?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaze105:
If the place you purchased from clearly indicated i9100 instead of i9100g, then you should 100% feel cheated. If they just said its a SGS2, rather difficult to say you were. It would have been best to check the phone and see if you had the i9100. Possibly returned the i9100G if you didnt flash anything yet, but I guess its too late now.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NateWnz:
It specifically says i9100 on the product page (false advertisement!).. this is also the reason I tried installing i9100 firmware instead off i9100G in the first place so technically it's their fault? .. how much difference are there really between the two? is it worth sending back now that I already familiarized myself with the phone? I mean if the difference is considerable I will damn well issue a claim with the Swedish consumer relation's board :P
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
I just told you above what the difference is...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaze105:
Difference is hardware, primarily the CPU and GPU. Considering flashing custom roms voids warranty, it would be your fault sadly. I dont know how your phone provider checks, so I cant say if they will accept it back or not, but if they do check the counter, I dont think they will accept it back. If that is the case, you will need to buy a jig from ebay or something. Do you have the link for this product page from where you purchased it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NateWnz:
Yes, I do but it's in Swedish. Though you can clearly make out that it says i9100.

http://www.bazula.se/Samsung-Galaxy/Samsung-Galaxy---mobiler/Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-i9100.htm

Sure but that is a separate issue don't you think? They can't sell i9100s and then deliver i9100Gs that's fraudulent business practices .. Besides I managed to restore the cell phone to working order no triangels or anything .. do you really think they would do invasive testing if the cell is working and it's just a matter of incorrect model being shipped?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NateWnz:
I know you did, however I was asking more in terms of user experience .. would you notice a clear difference e.g. smoothness in scrolling menus, videos, games etc?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Performance wise? I honestly don't know. I've never even held a G variant. Supposedly they bench just slightly under the standard I9100 though... Which implies that performance difference is negligible.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaze105:
Best to contact them first saying you have the i9100g instead of the i9100. The i9100G may slightly under perform compared to the i9100, but its really hard to notice it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NateWnz:
I did do some reading but no method worked for me so far. So I was just wondering if anyone have rooted a i9100G personally .. Don't be so confrontational. =)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
I'm glad you got the phone working again... but oinkylicious has a point. That link I gave you? I found from a search. Again, I've never even held an I9100G.

Searching is easy. You will more often than not find what you are looking for long before someone replies to something you post.

Heck, you can even use google to do your XDA searching for you if you don't like the search engine built into XDA. Just include "site:xdaforums.com" before any search term, like "I9100G root", and there you go.

Make sure to include your firmware version in your search string to give you better results.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NateWnz:
True. Your points are valid and I will take them to heart! People, respond much more favorably to people like you though - people who are more diplomatic and genuinly try to help in favor of scolding people who are inexperienced.

That's a great tip. I will use those search parameters with google in the future ;) Thank you.

[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] purcellage:
Hi,

Long story short, a while ago I broke my screen, so I took it to a local phone shop (not vodafone, a small company) who did repairs. They charged £50 for the screen and to fit it etc. But since they've "repaired" it, the screen no longer sits flush in the body of the phone. The top let hand corner or the screen hangs about 3/4mm out of the body and is "squishy" (best way I can describe it really, I can push it in to where it should be, but it doesn't sit there, it comes out (as if it is being bent around something)). Due to this, dust seems to have gotten inbetween the screen and the digitizer? I can see the dust, can't remove it or touch it though... The case doesn't appear to be bent or out of shape in any way either. The mesh covering the speaker is mullered though, the technician at the shop reckons that it was neccessary during removal and replacement of the screen (true?). They also say that the reason the screen won't stay stuck in (all 3 other corners fit flush and do not move). Just wondering seeing as they aren't exactly much help if there is anything I can do to fix this. I am willing to take it apart myself and attempt to deal with it that way, as a last resort though. Screen works fine, no problems what so ever apart from the squidy corner and dust under the screen.

Have looked but haven't found this problem anywhere else and was wondering is it a physical fault or have they just put it together wrong? I'm seriously lost for what to do here... And on another note, phone won't connect to the computer as disc drive, but is fine for charging (although during mains charging it registers as "Charging (USB)" and sometimes doesn't register fully charged until it's soft reset which it then says it's completely full (although this isn't persistent, only some mornings...)

Sorry if this has been asked before and I haven't seen it or if I'm in the wrong area, didn't see a tech section.

Many thanks,

Joe
