Cheap JIG that works

[kvl19]

I bought this jig for less than $2, and it worked. The shipping took about 2 weeks.

Just grabbed one, thanks for the info.
Now I won't be as nervous when trying experimental ICS roms/mods when it comes to that time.

Wish it didn't take 2 weeks though...

Just remember all jigs only work if you have the old bootloader

Wait, so if I went from stock GB 2.3.4 to UnNamed 2.2.1 (includes GB 2.3.6) I can still use this since I don't think it includes a bootloader if I am not mistaken.

If it does include a new bootloard which can I do...

1. Remove Triangle?
2. Download Mode?
3. Reset Flash Counter?

It's only $2 so its not the end of the world, I spend more on junk food at work.

Should still work. I think what he means is if you install the ICS bootloader it wont work.

I tried, and it worked

What I mean is if you flash the stock 2.3.6 from AT&T/Samsung, you will have flashed the new bootloader. All the custom roms that are 2.3.6 are running the old bootloader as far as I know. Nothing to do with ICS.

BTW, anyone figure out how to put some sort of keyring or somthing onto the jig? I'd love to clip it to the rest of my important thumb drives to keep it all together.

I could not find one with free shipping. Any luck on finding the link?

I bought a jig. and I wanna test it first before plugging this bad boy on my galaxy s2. yes I'm a little paranoid because I can't afford a new phone if my galaxy s2 stop working(imma student and I don't work). I do have an old vibrant and can I test my jig on the vibrant first if it works or does vibrant uses diff jig?

This is the cheapest one I found with SGS2 specific to the I777 and other S2 phones.
