Hi! Thanks for making this thread i've been looking for something like it all day!

I have the SHW-M250S from SK telecom that I'm trying to use on Rogers in Canada but Im running into some problems.

firmware version: 2.3.5
Build number : gingerbread.ej04

1. I can't seem to update to ICS via Kies (says device is not supported by kies..)
2. I can't connect to 3G internet, it only shows as G
3. can't send/receive MMS

would flashing my phone with another ROM/firmware be able to fix any of these problems? i read around and some guy mentioned that SHW-M250S uses a distinct SK-MMS system that other nations dont use (OMA-MMS?) so it won't work anywhere but would flashing the phone be able to reset any of these so that it'll work with Rogers in Canada?

Thanks for the help in advance (i just about gave up and thought of buying a new phone as a broke college student)

Hey guys,

I recently received a SamSung Galaxy SII model number: SHW-M250S that use to work in Korea with SK telecom.

Now Im in California and would like to Flash this so it could work with Tmobile.

Before I begin my adventure, I wanted to ask the experts if this was even a possibility?

Thanks so much in advance!

I dont know what's happening with my m250s, I returned it to stock rom, included pit file, it boot with SKT logo, and i can see Phone information with M250S model + baseband ud18, all of its is M250S. but even though i try to connect manually to SKT it out of my order.

How can i fix my problem? Is there any way?
Thank you.

Hi!

I have galaxy s2 M250L running 4.0.3. I am experiencing bad battery backup and sometimes phone heats up very much.

I read that rooting improves battery very much. So is it a good idea to root my M250L if it is at all possible?

Help

Have you tried ticking re-partition? Also, fill only the PDA box leaving the PHONE, CSC and BOOTLOADER. Importantly, did you include the pit file for I9100?

You can try downloading a pre-rooted firmware from here http://goo.gl/yDrx3. Use Google chrome to translate the page to English if you can't read Korean. Use Odin when flashing and fill only the PDA box.

Rooting really does nothing on itself other than giving superuser permissions to apps that requires modifying the root of the phone. The rooting applications are the one which can improve battery life by underclocking cpu and things like that. For example is SetCpu. Also, if you do not want to enter the world of rooting(which voids the warranty and can SOMETIMES brick your phone if you don't know what you're doing), try doing a factory reset of your phone if there is no any other way. There might be some apps which causes a huge drain on your battery causes kernel wakelocks. Heating of phone especially the camera part is normal if you are playing games which uses huge memory and cpu usage like GTA, DeadSpace. Also, playing your phone while charging is really bad for your battery's health.

You can try flashing an I9100 official Canadian ICS rom(dowload on samfirmware). This might fix the problem.
