[Q] CF-Root for I9100GXXKL4 - General Questions and Answers

hi there.
have a new galaxy s2 with the baseband-version mentioned in the subject.
i want to flash cyanogenmod 7.2 with heimdall on ubuntu, so which cf-root-kernel do i need?
so if i am right, i should get an kernel which works with my current rom, but does it matter which kernel i use, when i want to flash cyanogenmod 7.2 after that?
anyway, i do not see cf-root in chainfire's cf-root thread for:
GT-I9100G
I9100GXXKL4
GINGERBREAD.XXLA1
which kernel do i need for my little journey?
i've read, but i couldn't find anything.
if somebody has a better solution, please let me know.

In the I9100 section you'll find how to ROOT "G" I9100 its not with cf-root but there are insecure kernels for the rooting of the "G" version there different hardware so even custom ROMs are specific to "G" model. I'm mobile so no link but not even having "G" model have seen threads on the topic...

Any solution?
Did you find a solution for rooting this firmware? I'm having the same problem

I've managed to flash my device with the stock rom & kernel shortly after the post. For solutions and the software just look here or here.

my i5800

hi guys im a UK based gt-i5800 user currently using a custom rom and kernel.
im just wondering where can i locate the original 2.1 eclair kernel and rom from this fone.
i know it sounds crazy going back to eclair but i just wanna start from scratch.
can you guys please tell me what the UK rom and kernel were for oct 2010 please and also links to the specific files if possible.
i have tried searching through the website and even found roms on sammobile.com but they all confuse me. any help is much appreciated
it should be here somewhere
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I5800&r=1#regiona
thats where i was looking all i need to know is what kernel site has original kernel
All stock ROMs come with stock kernels. I believe the version you need is I5800XXJK1, because that is the latest XX version of eclair (I have also installed it once and the local product region in build.prop was GB). There is a tool on sammobile which will tell you does this version fits your smartphone, so first check out there.
here is the link for the stock kernels

i dont think in the above link has stock kernels/custom ones for ecliar

[Q] A question regarding flashing ROM

Hi all. I'm sorry if this has maybe asked before, but i've read several guides and topics and didn't quite get it. What is the difference between flashing a rom via Clockwork mod and odin? Currently I have Lite'ning Rom v6. 1 XXKH3, KERNEL version [email protected] #20 and I was wondering what are the right steps to change to another custom rom(I have a galaxy s 2 and i was planning to try a ics rom). Thanks in advance
from what i have gathered through flashing roms on my sgs2 odin if for official samsung roms and CWM if for home made roms but i may be wrong
Thank you for your reply. So if i want to go back to stock firmware I shall use odin and clockwork for custom roms? Anyone else can confrim this?

You should be able to find several kernels suitable for your SGS2 right here (XDA). Search for 'kernel collection sgs2' on google. The 3rd link from the top should be useful and have current ICS kernels (which are compatible with your device).
To name just a few:
N.e.a.k.
Siyah
CF-Root
Phenomenal
Make sure that, whatever kernel you decide to try, it's compatible with your ROM (in your case ICS 4.0.4).

[Q] shw m110s

good day to all..
im new with this phone..this one is a korean version of galaxy s1(shw m110s)
im confused with how to install custom roms here...
what do i need to download..a kernel or a custom rom?
thanks xda
Moved to General Q&A.
The kernel allows the ROM to communicate with the hardware specific to your device. All ROMs have a kernel build-in. If the custom ROM is designed fir your phone, it will work fine. If the ROM was intended for a device in the same family as yours, you can flash that ROM, then flash the kernel for your phone, & it'll work. If the ROM was designed for a completely different device, nothing will get it to work.
Remember to always do a nandroid backup before flashing stuff!!

[Q] Help Please! SGS2 - ROM - UHLPG

Hey guys, sorry but I cannot seem to find any information on this.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2, i9100, and I want to root it.
The problem I am having is that I am a [noob] yes I admitted it, but I cannot seem to find the ROM for my device.
I attached a screenshot of my device's about section.
Now I know that the steps are to use ODIN, and then download a CF root, but I can't seem to find my ROM. I am from an island called Trinidad & Tobago (Caribbean) and I have updated my device to ICS.
Can anyone please explain to me, what the hell do I have to do to root this device? I want to install a custom rom, if anyone can vouch for a nice smooth rom that looks great!
Thanks in advance!
Cheers!

This method needs to have an external card to your sii. Put the files both in external and internal card too. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719

Now if u want to install a custom rom install first a custom kernel for samsung ics 4.0.3 (not aokp aosp) from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1702166 and after install rom. U can do this using the temporary cwm u downloaded before. Is the safest way this because custom kernels had injected cwm and not using temporary cwm. Read well the instructions of the developer before installing , also check before installing a custom rom if it has a safe kernel because excists a brick bug at samsung roms 4.0.4 and +.
