1. Simply flash stock firmware via Odin. No need of special files.

2. Root it by zergRush Exploit method.

One more thing - this is the general section. Please post questions in the Q & A Section.

1000 Thanks immortalneo :D

I would just like to ask if I need to select Re-partition in Odin or just leave Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time in the flashing options.

Sorry for the follow up question, but in some tuturials they use special pit files and csc files to revert back and I just want to be sure that I don't screw this up. :p

Edit: did you notice that the phone is actually a i9100P with a i9100 4.1.2 firmware installed?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
Yes, I did notice that. But its ok. :D

Just don't change any options in Odin. Leave them at their default settings.

Do not tick 'Re-partition' or use a PIT file.

For more info, read about flashing via Odin.

Thank you I was able to revert back to 2.3.6 and now the phone is working correctly again. I had some problems with not registering to the network. Now for the root I am not sure why but it did not work out, It looks as if it did work, but after the reboot I still don't have su installed and all the options (usb debug. and install outside sources are checked).

I will try to update it to 4.0.3 official and see if that helps to get root.

If I can bother you with one last thing, do you know if there is a I9100P 4.1.2 stock,rooted ROM? Nothing fancy just something light, bloatware free and rooted with the latest JB features and a usable NFC chip.

Thanks once again for all your help.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
What 'options' are u talking about mate?

And have u checked for root access using 'Root Checker' app from the Playstore? :confused:

There are currently no custom ROMs for I9100P. But you can install any custom ROM meant for the I9100!

Of course, you will lose NFC capability after that. To get back NFC, re-enable NFC using this patch.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johev:
Dear immortalneo,

Thanks for all your help. The reason why I wanted to revert back to 2.3.6 was because I had a problem with the phone not registering to the network. Everything worked perfectly on the phone, but the phone would refuse to register to the network. After trying different SIM cards I even thought that I had a blocked IMEI, but as soon as I reverted back to 2.3.6 the network started working again which probably means that the IMEI is fine. (please comment)

Then I upgraded to 4.0.3 stock ROM and I get the no network problem again (it even showed Safe Mode on the bottom left side of the screen of the phone), but as soon as I try to root it with your suggested program I get the the network working (after it rebooted).

What a strange problem. So now I have a the stock 4.0.3 (full of bloatware ROM) which I can't root with zerglings. I checked with root checker and I get the message "sorry your phone is not rooted".

The objective is to have a stable working 4.1.2.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: reverted back to 2.3.6 for root but still can't root the phone. Please see the print screen with the end result.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
Ok, I get your frustration. :D

U need a debloated stock rom, right? Try NeatRom Lite.

But since it is for I9100, u will have to use NFC Enabler patch also.

That will do..:)

For rooting ICS, CF kernels or custom kernels are better than zergRush exploit method.

Just flash Siyah v5.0.1 kernel via Odin to get root on ICS 4.0.3. :)

Then you can flash NeatRom from CWM. :D

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johev:
Thanks for the suggestion of the ROM. Downloading it now.

Now any idea how to install this on a stock 2.3.6 which I can't root? Any way to get CWM on it without root?

Please see the annexed image in my last post.

EDIT: Perfect will do what you have suggested, I'll let you know how it went. ;)

EDIT2: Got it working as intended, registering to the network without any problems (so far), and very smooth ROM. The only thing I could not find was a way to add the Samsung Account (does not appear in the account options), as in case my mother looses the phone, the tracking and locking options will come useful.

But all in all it is working well (knock on wood).

Thanks once again for all your help. ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
Ur welcome!

U can ask about the samsung account issue in the NeatROM discussion thread. They can assist you in that.

Thanks once again for the advice. I used search instead, found out that the lite version had it removed, downloaded a zip file with all the removed APK, I have extracted it and installed just the one that I needed and problem was solved.

So if the question is there, I normally find it without the need of bothering people.

Thank you for all your assistance with the not so famous version of the GSII the i9100P :). Hope to help you one day as much as you did help me.

Have a nice week. ;)

Stock 4.1.2 no root what's going on??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tony yayo:
I just got 2 and a half days off my new Anker. Try clearing the ram in task manager. Will help kill rogue apps. For some damn reason if I use slacker for 5 minutes even it will stay running for like 8 hours, even if I'm signed off. Something is draining your battery you just have to figure out what it is. Apps can get stuck running and kill your battery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dmwitz:
Something seems to be wrong, very wrong. How many hours has the screen been on? Unless the screen on time is +4,5 - 5 hours you need to find an app that more closely checks battery usage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] RonnieRuff:
That is the missing link. Note the game use. 3-4 hours of game play and this is just normal.

Up where it shows the % left and says discharging, tap on it and down at the bottom of the graph, does it show your phone being awake more than the screen is on? Maybe post a screen shot. Also, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2133436 Have you tried BBS yet? What does it show in your kernel wakelocks? And as stated, heavy gaming=heavy battery discharge...what is your screen on time?

Thanks for the replies guys and I only played real racing 3 for 30 minutes only. Screen time is less then 2 hours I constantly have a good signal, I looked for a battery drain app but it said it'd take 3 days to show actual results. And I can't read BBS.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gedster314:
You may want to get better battery stats from the store and look at the partial wakes and see if an app preventing sleep.

I was getting sucky battery live too, not that bad though. I ended downloading the latest stock rom for the N7105 (XXXDMB6) stick with the stock Tmobile modem. I'm running saber kernel 17. I then use Setcpu and select pegasusq and zen options on the main page. Battery life has been much improved. Everything I have tried that is built on a TMobile rom has sucked in battery life for me.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JesseMT4G:
You must have some crazy wakelocks going on. Like other guy said, check you battery and where it has that graph on it, click it and compare the awake with on-screen times and if not matching up and see more awake hash marks, then have a rouge app keeping the phone awake, which will hit on the battery.

Can do the Ram issue, however will come right back.

Honestly best way to do it, is reset phone/wipe and add one app back at a time.

I have wakelocks too, but nothing crazy. That and have an extended battery, so don't care to wipe yet.

Kind of a hassle, but probably your best option.

Until you post screen shots of the individual app times along with the general battery use no one can help you. You started a couple thread about this same issue and we told you to download the better battery app to better diagnose the issue.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tony yayo:
I agree. This is your FOURTH new thread related to battery? And in evey one you are told to get BBS and report in their thread yet you don't do it. All you are doing is cluttering the boards.

This is your answer to each and every battery thread you've started. This has been told to you each and every time. You have never done it.

Next time you have a battery related question go to the BBS thread and post your log. I swear, I hope i never see you post another battery thread again.

EVERYTHING! People give you solutions to your problems and you don't listen! Then when people tell you you don't listen you get all pissy. How many people have to say get the BETTER BATTERY STATS app and post a log in their thread. You have now made 4 threads on battery that could have been solved by you posting in an ALREADY STARTED thread! But even if you did that you wouldn't take their advice either probably so...

FYI: People are not stalking your threads, hard to avoid when you have 3 of them at the top of the page of every section because you don't know how to read and search.

Ok Thread cleaned due to the infighting. [MENTION=4564414]horr1blek1tten[/MENTION] people actually tried to help you stating check wakelocks among other things. I suggest you do that. Battery life is very dependent on user. Check wakelocks, try other modems kill syncs etc.

I have Qtek 1010 and I have flashed ATT new released A.30.09 ENG. Generally it works fine.

Sometimes, and I am unable to observe when and after what operation, it just searches and searches for the network (that is the indication I get at the bottom of the antenna icon). It never finds the network, the "turn off phone" or "turn on flight mode" function also does not work. Soft reset does not work. It becomes terribly sluggish. The only way out is hard reset.

Has this happened to anyone? Is it a radio stack problem or the OS problem? It has happened to me all the time: when I had original Qtek ROM (I think version 3.14, after I changed it to version 3.16, with 4.00.05, 4.00.11 (cooked).

One more observation: Sometimes everything else is working fine, but the GPRS does not connect at all. It says the remote modem is not responding or something. When I turn the phone off and back on, it starts working!

It's not really a big issue but it is certainly annoying. I have bootloader version 5.15 and Radio Stack version 3.23.01
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
Try the GSM menu in the bootloader and select "Reset GSM" ... plz do NOT select a different band!!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] samohile:
Thanks for the suggestion. Sorry, I forgot to mention that phenomenon - If I enter the bootloader, I don't get the usual "GSM OK" prompt and hence can not access any menu under bootloader.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
maybe you need to reflash or change the RSU, but since it's the most risky tasks, I wouldn't recommend doing that except it's really annoying, and your better do it through your operator or qualified place.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] samohile:
Thanks.

That is exactly why I am avoiding doing it. I have read so many sad stories about crashed devices while flashing RSU (though I have done it once and it was successful - but I would think a million times before doing it again).

First and foremost, I must know that the problem IS indeed associated with RSU. Next is, what RSU upgrade is suitable for my device? Our service provider has no idea whatsoever that this type of device does exist! I had a tough time finding out GPRS settings for my device. They do provide and it does work, but they are more familiar with people using laptop computers with mobile phones as their GPRS modems.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
I believe the best RSU for Qtek for Asia is 3.25.01 ... I had it before changing the mother board and it was pretty stable ... http://www.carrierdevices.com.au/do...ic&PHPSESSID=36cb61b97c050374d946824d537f3af5

Hey guys. So I've been having serious issues with my Verizon lumia side I've had it about 3 months. Constant issues with mms.. incoming pictures never come through. Freezes and reboots often. Phone keeps corrupting sd cards. Every time on boot up, it gives an error message staying to fix the sd card.

Gone through ton of tech support and nothing. Just went to Verizon store and they basically said there's nothing they can do because the phone has known issues. They also stated that because we were using a Samsung sd card instead of a 'verizon' one, that that is the issue with the phone. Obviously just taking to a saleswoman who has no real tech knowledge.

So I'm looking to call Verizon direct and replace the phone, and wondering if others here have done this and what I can expect. Personally I'm used to dealing with AT&T and know that they'll give in to what I need if you're persistent enough.. I've never really felt with Verizon before.

Just looking for advice and suggestions to get this phone replaced or a replacement model.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinister1:
Actually no, my 822 has been working fine with the exception of that annoying black screen that flashes when I'm trying to make a phone call. If you got the insurance you should be able to take it back to Verizon and get a new one. If you happen to go to the store and they are clue less you might have to call Verizon directly at one of their 1-800 numbers, have tech support trouble shoot it and determine the next steps.

They usually go through a list of troubleshooting steps and ask you a few questions like the last 4 digits of your SS, address and so on so they can verify our account.

At work when a phone goes crazy like that, Verizon usually sends a replacement, granted that you have insurance on the phone. Once they send you the new phone they will send you a return label and you have to ship the old one back before 5 days or something like that or they will charge you for not returning it.
