galaxy s2 plus gt-19105 root
Hello everyone I hope u all have good time with this tremendous site ! and i wish u accept me a friend to all of u ....
fortunately i bought galaxy s2 plus a month ago and i like so much.... eventually i tried to root it cuz i like it to be in a smooth shape and performance
however those continous efforts to root the device hasnt come to fruition yet
this is what i did i installed a root file for s2 plus zip on my sd boot into recovery and tried to apply update from sd it started the operation but after 10 seconds i received a message saying that signature failed and stopped the procedure >>>
moreover i setup cwm on my s2 plus via odin program and tried again to take the risk but got the same lovely message again
actually it doesnt matter if i installed the cwm recovery or the android because i couldnt get to the cwm recovery each time i press the volume up button the power and home button i get to the android recovery unfortunately
please if someone seems to understood the trouble i am suffering from i am here encourage u to help me pleazzzzzzz without hesitation

hi,
I have a big problem, I need to reinstall the ROM for my I9377 ROM Haipai (after a week of use) ...
I tried to use this ROM that you've linked, but the system tells me "has no signature."
you could help me with a copy of your backup I9377? I do not know what do more... : (
Thank you very much...
*** I contacted the seller, but unfortunately he didn't help me either.

Hello,
could you tell us if the phone is working correctly (wifi, 3g, GPS) ?
Is it laggy or not ?
Do you have 1gb of RAM or 512 ?
Is it really android 4.1 (jeally bean) ?
Is the camera good ?
Best regards

Download this http://forum.frandroid.com/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_id=17527, and copy the needed files to system/etc
Although GPS is really **** at this phone
You will not find right rom. I had found one in chinese forum, but screen didn't work right. I sent it back to shop for refund

I found a semi-custom rom in the italian forum but gps isn't working any better.

[GT P5100]How to upgrade

Hi,
I own a GT P5100 running 4.0.3 android.
I had rooted it with the help of a thread on this forum.
Now, when I connect to Wifi, the Tab downloads JB update...but it is unable to install that update.
Can u tell me the reason?
Also, is there any newer update [official or unofficial] than JB?
How can I upgrade to it?
I'm fairly new to this rooting/flashing etc.
Thanks for ur help

temember that JB is 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 recently an update show up (in france) the 4.2.2 JB, this is (and will be) the last update for the tab,
im not an expert but maybe you can't update because the root, if you want to update you may unroot or use ODIN (but will not be root after the update, unless you port the root with an app)

thx for ur reply...
So whr can I find the latest update?
And how to go about UNRooting -> Updating -> ROOTing ?

As fabrihn said earlier 4.2.2 is the last update for galaxy tab 2 from samsung , but you can always flash custom roms like cyanogenmod to get the newest android versions (p.s. cyanogenmod 10.2 gives you the andoid 4.3 version ).
And to port root the best app is MOBILE ODIN PRO !!! It is actually a mobile version of the odin software and with it you can directly flash files from your mobile .It gives the option to root your new firmware while it is being flashed.

thanks kunjcool :good:
techack did you read the last link i let you? in there there is also a way to root after upgrade even over 4.2.2, and as kunjcool say there are also custom rooms that you can flash, in the http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1602 (android development section)

Thanks for your reply.
I have installed Cyanogen Mod 10.1 ... android 4.2.2
however when I connect my tab to PC, it doesnt get displayed as "Removable Storage"
Is it due to installing ADB Universal driver?
How can I correct it?
Also, when I POWER ON the device, the screen displays distorted colours and then starts up with CYANOGEN Logo...Is it possible to correct it as well?

That is happening because you haven't enabled USB DEBUGGING on your device. To do so you have to Go to developer settings, but by default it is hidden, to use DEVELOPER SETTINGS
Go to SETTINGS
ABOUT TABLET
and click BUILT NUMBER 7 times to unhide DEVELOPER SETTINGS option. Now you are done
And yes for the boot screen logo either use custom boot screen logo zip file and replace with original or try reading the forum post of that ROM which you are using and ask there.
Hope that was helpful to you.
