there are different models I9100 and I9100G be sur that your phone is the I9100G model to be able to flash ROMs on this section Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development, if it's not a I9100G model but just I9100 go to Galaxy S II I9100 Android Development. If you flash a ROMs developed for G version on the international one you'll soft brick your phone
Problem with restoring my nandroid backup.
When I restored my nandroid backup all my apps are not restored and also SUPERSU was not there.
After reboot many other apps got deleted like YouTube, maps.
I used online nandroid backup app.

Any reason not to buy this phone ? Major bugs ?
Hi there,
I am planning on buying a used 9100G for 200EUR / 260USD and flashing CM10 or CM10.1 .
Are there any major bugs that I am not aware, like Bluetooth not working, not pairing with car, horrible voice call quality, etc ... ?
Right now, i have CM10.1 i9000. But the missing flash and the bad camera annoys me so much.
I need something that runs quite stable and reliably and has a better battery and more space than the Nexus4.
Thanks for your comments

Thanks for your reply.
I am aware of teamhacksung's known issues page. But I am not sure how complete it is. And they don't write things like "battery life just half of stock" or sound "Bluetooth audio crackling cash register " . That's why I was wondering, if people who use this phone on a day to day basis, got annoyed by something.

Battery life is individual in each phone mate. You can't say anything related to battery because almost always isn't related to ROM.

Battery life is great.
Bluetooth works
Pairing works
Dock doesn't work
3g video call isn't supported in aosp
No audio crackling unless you're listening to music and GPS at the same time.
My colleague is using a i9100g and i'm not sure how to help him to flash into the latest jellybean release.
I have tried to update his phone from gingerbread into ICS/Jellybean through OTA but somehow the update fail. I soft bricked the phone but somehow able to overcome it by flashing stock GB 2.3.6 rom from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1619571
Now I just wonder the safest method to root the phone and so that I can flash the official jellybean XXLSR safely into the phone, as the root method mentioned all for ICS/Jellybean based ROM.
I did try flash the custom kernel superatmos kernel into the GB rom but somehow the CWM is working weirdly. I could not go into "apply update from external storage" when I press the power button, from the source in the link below.
http://www.androidauthority.com/gal...d-2-3-6-root-clockworkmod-recovery-cwm-92295/
p/s : I will try another method, flash the latest official firmware using ODIN, and see if I can root from there.

You could download the jellybean firmware from sammobile and flash it through Odin. Its way faster than using kies.
I hve download it and its working. But i dont know why cmd cannot work.

There has been a issue of vibration in my phone since I upgraded to ics..
My phone vibration stops after a reboot.
Then after taking out battery vibration comes back...
Is this a common problem in this phone?
Any solutions?
Presently using pacman rom...

7Please Help,
I have a Bricked I9100g. It is totally dead. it seems that it's called Sleep Cpu Mode.
Can any Box / JTAG Repair my phone?
What is the solution?
have you flashed any rom??4Actually if you used the app by Chainfire, it does report our chipset as faulty...but so far none bricked their phones because of this...and since codeworkx already disabled MMC cap erase in his CWM kernel (other devs did the same), so it is perfectly safe to factory reset using those kernels...but it is different for temporary CWM as the source is unknown...better to use permanent CWM...4Sup guys
Recently purchased galaxy s2 i9100g upgraded to jb n I have rooted it.

Fast n stable.
Thanks in advance

Hey. It's really a matter of choice which ROM. You decide to go with. I can't tell you which would be the best for you, but I can tell you which ones I like.
First of all there is MIUI v5 android 4.1. It's polished and beautiful. And is based on stock samsung ROM. It's quite good but, in my experience' unfortunately less responsive than android 4.2 ROMs.
Secondly there is Cyanogenmod. it is Rock stable and very fast. Most of the other ROMs are either based on this ROM or at least use a part of it. It has the most number of users globally.
And finally there is PAC (parandroid - AOKP - Cyanogenmod). It's a mash up of all the best ROMs. It's fast and filled with more features than you can figure out in a day.
My opinion, keep things simple for the first time you flash aROM. Go with cyanogenmod. But don't install the new 4.3 ROMs. They are mostly in beta stages right now.
There are a lot more ROMs that i haven't tried. And these three are the ones i like.
Noob guide:
1. Download the ROM u want.
2. DOWNLOAD the Gapps (Google Apps)
Put them into the sd cart of your phone.
3. Turn your phone off.
4. Boot into recovery mode.( hold volume up + home button and then power button for some seconds and then release)
5. Take a back up (optional)
6. Factory reset
7 wipe cache
8 go to advanced - wipe dalvik cache
9 install zip from sd card - choose zip (it goes into a file system mod where you can see your files and find the zip you want to install)
10 INstall the ROM
11 install Gapps
12 factory reset - wipe cache - wipe dalvik cache
13 reboot phone
Usually the first booting takes a little bit more time. Wait for it.
Note:
First, make sure to read the installing instructions for each ROM at the first of the ROM thread. Read as many pages of the thread as you can to find everything you want to know.
P.s: there are hundreds of better guides on line. Next time you need something just simply google it. It's probably already out there. And remember, rom choosing is highly personal. So try the Rom, don't ask questions about it.
Good luck3
