I have got a Galaxy S II . I bought it around a year ago . It was using gingerbread . Over the year I have used "I9100XXLPQ" and "I9100DXLP7" .
Yesterday I have Downloaded "GT-I9100 - I9100XWLPX" that I found here "http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1544487" and rooted it from here "http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1877270" .
And guess what ? I am reading all about eMMC Bug Now !
Now I am reading that it is a possibility that I may hit the eMMC Bug somehow but I don't know what I needs to do to avoid it . First I read it here "http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1756242" Which doesn't say LPX exactly and the log from PhilZ Root "http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1877270" Looked promising . But I have downloaded "got brickbug ?" app and it says : DANGER ! This eMMC chip is *Known* to have the brick bug !
XWLPX is based on android 4.0.4 and it is a lot faster that those previous 2 firmwares that I had and I am loving it but I yet to test the battery .
I believe you have to do a "nandroid" something to hit the bug and I don't know exactly what it is . What I usually do is Download the Firmware . Load it as PDA in odin3 v1.85 and click start . And something about CWM recovery but I know this much that it comes with some roots and I had it before but the new root doesn't install an app for it called CWM Clockwork mod (I think) . and let me add I did a factory reset and sd wipe when flasing from gingerbread to ICS but not from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 . What I understand is I don't brick my phone unless I mess with some sort of stuff which is ok for now but I want to try Jellybean if i found a good one or an official release . Correct me if I'm wrong .

Help Me Guys , it is an expensive phone by my standards , and there is no return policy where I live .

Edit : I actually did some more reading and found out Clockwork recovery mode is what when I press volume up & home & power . And I had it before and with the new root it has changed version to Clockworkmod v6.0.1.4 recovery . At page http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1794758 it suggests the people who are unsure to flash clockwork mode which I think I already have . I quite like to change ROM and try speedmod and CyanogenMod 10 and siyah . Can anyone confirm I am past the brickbug ?
