Samsung Galaxy S II :: How To Reinstall Stock Firmware
Dec 18, 2011
first off is my problem with ics which i installed the other day after watching a "how to install" video on Internet. got it installed and working fine but as you may or may not know its not official update so there was alot of issues like the phone would turn itself off and other annoying things.now i want it back to stock (not bothered about the orange bloatware that was on it). i am new to all this flashing/installing.
I have a SM-G920F phone and I recently flashed the UK version of Lollipop to be able to participate in Marshmallow beta program. I didn't like it because it didn't support my gear VR and I went back to Lollipop. Now I have the UK version installed on my phone and I can't get rid of the Android 6.0 beta OTA software update notification.
So I would like to flash the Nordic countries firmware but my pc is broken and I don't have admin permissions for my pc at work. It there a way to flash it without a pc?
Anyway as usual I don't do lot of research (I'm stupid I guess), so first I flash CF-Auto-Root via Odin and... surprise phone is stuck on boot logo, so I don't panic too much , I install TWRP via Odin and everything is ok, then I download a stock firmware 3483.1 MB and try to flash it via odin but oh surprise, it fails, on the phone screen say
W REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 2 BINARY: 1
and on odin :
Odin engine v(ID:3.1005).. File analysis.. SetupConnection.. Initialzation.. Get PIT for mapping.. Firmware update start.. SingleDownload. sboot.bin NAND Write Start!! FAIL!
I have the S6 with 5.0.2 and CSC ITV (AP:G920FXXU1AOCV, CP:G920FXXU1AOCW, CSC:G920FXXU1AOCN). Since I leave in Greece, I tried to flash through odin the Stock firmware with CSC EUR but I had fails all 4 times. Tried with both odin 3.0.9 and 3.10. The problem seems to be the hidden file in the end, because everything goes fine until that moment. The result is soft brick. What should I do?
Just updated via Samsung Apps the camera firmware to a CDE11 or something version. Took 4 minutes to update and flash this firmware. I wonder what exactly it changed in the camera firmware? Hopefully improved things or bug fixes.I will test a few videos and see if the bitrate has changed or not.
Just noticed but my stock music and video player and stock photo gallery don't have access to the pictures music or video stored on my phone. I downloaded several third party apps and can still access the content.
Im having an issue with MP3 playback on a stock galaxy s2. Music plays for almost an entire track, then crashes (phone plays notification tone, the signal meter shows a circle with a line through it and the media scanner starts up) Does anyone know how to fix this?
I was using Enhanced Email, which caused my phone to reboot and the keyboard to become unresponsive. I know it was built using the stock app. I wonder if when I uninstalled Enhanced Email it took a toll on my stock? (I have another thread trying to figure out why I can't switch between accounts)
Is there anyway to reinstall the stock text messaging app on the Atrix 2? Since day one the app will link to the wrong message from the preview, either in the Universal Inbox, the Notifications, or the Text Messages list. A reboot of the device corrects the problem temporarily, but it always returns.
I noticed in my i9100 (bought recently) that the ringhtones had some Hindi names in the stock ringtones - 'Jeeley har pal', 'Umang', 'Saavan'Do they come with the stock SGS II i9100 ringtones or maybe some app has installed them.Need to confirm this to make sure I have not been ditched by the vendor and I am not using a second hand phone PS: If it helps, I am from India and need to confirm the stock ringtones that come with the Indian version?
just picked up an S2 from sprint as a replacement for HTC Evo.Great phone all around, however i`m having one issue. HTC Sense UI has an option to preview messages(2lines) and missed calls right(who and time) on lock screen. This is really handy option with small kids around you dont have to unlock your phone.Since S2 is missing that I've downloaded Notify App which works great.However - I cannot turn off stock notifications - they still show up - so at this time I have to clear notifications twice - once in App and once in Notifications Bar. Is there a way of turning off stock notifications (without custom ROM)? On all other phones i had - there was an option to go to Settings Privacy and uncheck the notifications. This is missing on S2 - all i can see under privacy is Reset to Factory.I really like the phone and how smooth it is. At this point i really dont want to do a custom ROM (`ill root it if need it)
1. I have knox tripped 2. When i flash stock with smart switch i get stuck on samsung boot logo 3. Same thing with odin....stuck on samsung boot logo 4. To get the phone working and boot to desktop i flash custom kernel like unikernel 5. The problem is i want to use stock kernel i want to flash with smart switch and i want to get updates from samsung like i was before because when i use unikernel and i try to updates phone said your rom is modified...
Is there any chance to bypass samsung logo without flashing custom kernel...
I have a question, as above. I like to look back and check sometimes when I responded to an email but can find no way of checking sent mail. I have checked lots of forums, the settings on my phone, etc, without success.

My blackberry Pearl 8110 is dead. It was spinning an hour glass continuously. I took out the battery and waited for a couple of minutes then put the battery back. Now I only see the red light flashing. What should I do the rescue?
i am trying to play cityville on the samsung galaxy sii using the stock internet browser. i can open facebook without any problems but when i click on the cityville link, the loading bar at the top just keeps refreshing every time it gets to the end and the page doesn't ever seem to load. there are android cityville apps but you can't use them to play the actual game, just check and collect bonuses.
I have been having some 'memory leak' problems with my Nokia e71 recently so took the opportunity just now to attempt to reinstall the firmware via the Nokia Software Updater programme on my PC.It got so far (presumably to the point where it had deleted the previous version and was about to start installing the new copy) when the computer flashed up a message saying that the USB connection had been lost and that I should turn off and then on the phone again and then reconnect the USB cable to finish the job.Problem is, the phone is in a blank screen state due to being halfway through the reinstall and no amount of pressing any button turns it off, on, into any kind of useable mode and that means at the moment that I am a) without a phone, b) uncontactable and c) hugely annoyed.Putting the USB into my other computer (or indeed, restarting the initial one) doesn't do anything because with the phone to all intents and purposes 'off', neither PC detects
S 2 firmware I'm looking for some help i have just had my phone replaced after it was stolen. I'm wanting to updated the firmware with Kies but it says.your current device's firmware version is not supported to update firmware via Kies.

samsung galaxy s ii a month ago and i noticed 2 bugs (i hope not faults).the first bug is the notorious pink spot.even after 2 firmware upgrades,it`s still there.the second bug and the most annoying is the fps drop.in low light conditions (and i mean inside or night),when autofocusing,the fps drop dramatically,like in this video (http://www.Internet.com/watch?=wkqe_62ee6y).again,after 2 firmware upgrades,it`s still there.i really don`t know what to do.i searched various websites and forums and the only "solution" i found is for the pink spot [the solution is updating to ke7,but my version is kj4 (the latest in my country and above ke7)],but still no luck with that.
I am very new to Android OS and I have just recently purchased SGS2. I have been trying to read as much as I can but I can not understand it.Where do I actually start? Rooting, Firmware upgrade? Custom GingerBread? customise the battery to last longer? able to install cool apps available? able to connect and optimise Wi-fi feature
My N900 was failing to detect the PR1.2 upgrade over the air so I installed the latest versions of Nokia PC Suite and NSU and tried to do an upgrade that way. The new upgrade wasn't detected but NSU offered to allow me to reinstall the existing firmware which is Version 1.2009.42-11.205.1 so I did that and it appeared to do so successfully. N.B.
I now have a phone which doesn't detect the SIM and (even though the drivers appear to be correctly installed) PC Suite and NSU can't detect the phone via USB in PC Suite mode. I can still connect to the hard disk in USB Mass Storage mode and the general phone functions seem ok. What's my next step to get my phone back to a useful state and what did I or NSU do wrong? I would have been confident of using the flasher until NSU messed up my phone.
I bought a Nokia N97 Mini phone, but it has some custom software version. I wonder if there is a way for me to reinstall the original Nokia software and if it can be found on the internet?
