What do you mean by "useless" ?
If flashes do not really take place using Odin 3.0.4, have you tried using Odin 3 v1.85 or v1.87 ?

one more issue .......it didn't find network too....no call from my phone at alll....its very bad ....please please help me ...XDA DEVELPOERS

First check if you have a valid imei. If yes root the phone using Philz kernel and use mobile odin to flash a modem.img. You can get the modem file from the rom you download. Open it using 7z and you will see modem file. Transfer to phone storage and use mobile odin. Phone will reboot and you should have baseband

thats samsung's new update policy for u
The ROMs between SGS2 and SGS+ are totally different. The numbers can be the same, but it doesn't matter. You can check other Samsung's stock ROMs just to notice they are all quite similar.
Do not in any case try to flash ROM from different phone.
Thanks. Is there a 2.3.5 firmware available for mine?

Some potential bug fixes, like camera or so on. Battery life and performance seems a bit better. There's also 2.3.6 (ZSKP6) But includes only few asian languages and English UK and US
I know it is a bit of a cheek but do you have a link for the 2.3.6 firmware?

Need some help here u guys....
I dont want to open up a new thread for this so i guess it'll fit right in here...
I downloaded ROM Toolbox recently which btw ****ED UP my phone, sonetimes the phone gets stuck now and many apps (also some I've already installed before) cant be downloaded via marked cuz now they are marked as not compatible with my device...
so before i play arround like crazy theres one question :
Is there a ROM out there which is like an enhanced version of the stock rom ? Many roms dont look very good (talking about the appearance), and an enchanced version of the stock rom without all the sync bs of google and stuff would be very cool....
this rom toolbox is such a crappy tool for sgs+....
i really need some help here this phone is starting to piss me off and i only rooted it and never flashed a new rom to the sgs+ (to no other phone neither)..
Can u guys give me some advices here plz ?

Oops Sorry mate
Are these all the stock roms available ? im looking for my original Stock rom which was i9001XXK13 which is 2.3.3 Gingerbread, i just need this to fall back on if any problems arise and i need to claim warranty.
Thanks
EDIT:Oops sorry wrong thread
Yesterday I rooted and flashed the "Install Android 4.0.1 ICS Custom ROM on Samsung Galaxy S2" to my
GT I001SGS plus and I am success full.
The only difference in adoption was I copied the 4.0.1 ICS Custom ROM to my external sd card and used the recovery mode
now my S plus is
Model GT-I9001
Firmwire version : 2.3.5
Baseband version: I9001XXKPF
Kernal version: 2.6.35.7-perf

Not able to update to 4.0.4

Hi.
My phone is running ICS 4.0.3 on SpeedMod k3-11 kernel, Baseband version N7000DDLP4.
Recently, the Indian Galaxy Note users recieved a ~100mb update to 4.0.4 but for some reason I am not able to download it. I've recieved the update notification 3 times but everytime I run it, it loads for a few seconds and then it says "No update found".
I have not been able to check update via Kies since my laptop is totally busted.
Could the problem be occuring cause I have a custom kernel installed? If so, I would really appreciate someone giving me the link to flash the stock kernel so i may upgrade to 4.0.4. (I have searched around but couldn't find it)
If its some other problem please do let me know too!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Since your laptop is busted, so you may use mobile odin to flash stock kernel, you can find kernel for your ROM in this thread- Kernel for your ROM is DDLPA one .. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371007
If you are going to flash it with mobile odin then extract the .zip or .tar till you find zimage file without any extension and flash using mobile odin, thats how I do it. You can flash .tar too

[Q] Kies claims my phone unable to update firmware.

Hello everyone.
Allow me to start by saying that i did tried to find the answer by searching the forums/ google but couldnt figure out most of what i stumbled upon,
So if this issue has been resolved in the past please recive my apolgies, i do not wish to bother anyone but i feel total lost, i saved each penny i could for this phone for a long time and im really scared to screw it up.
Now to my problem:
I own a galaxy note n7000. Never been rooted or something like that.. He stays exacly as i got him from the store.
The thing is im pretty sure (from what ive read) that i should get the ics 4.0.4 update, but when i was searching for updates in my phone
I found none. I tried updating from Kies but found out that my phone "does not support software update via Kies".
What i do know (or so i think...):
There could be some problem with my CSC? It dose not much my phone version or something like that?
What i think you need in order to help me:
Model number: gt-n7000
Android version: 4.0.3
Baseband version: n7000XXLPT
Kernel version: 3.0.15-N7000XXLPY-CL474507
Build number: IML74K.XXLPY
(I have no idea what my CSC or where to find it)
Any help would be welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Hi lee yun khong, thanks for your reply!
I saw dr.ketan guide but didnt fully understoond what i should do pre-installing the rom.
can i just install the new rom "over" the current rom and it will work? I dont have to do anything else?
Thanks.
no just download the rom u want ... put the phone in download mode and connect it to pc.. open PC odin and select the .tar.md5 file in the pda tab and flash it.
dont change any other settings in odin./
Yes. No prob at all. But some of the rom is non wipe. That means your all app, contact and message will remain after flash the new rom.

I got odin from dr.ketan guide and im right now downloading the 4.0.4 open germany rom from the list he supplied.
I want to refer to what dr.ketan wrote in his guide:
"Don't wipe anything from stock ICS recovery
Don't factory reset/Hard reset on stock ICS
Don't flash any Wipe version of ICS ROM"
I understand that the roms in his list are non-wipe so im good there.
But Since my current rom is stock ics 4.0.3, should i be worried?
Thanks.
No problem mate.

Well, that was easy.
Update went smooth and the phone shows im on ics 4.0.4, all system functions work as they should.
So as i understand it as long im just upgrading from stock to stock roms without wipe its a walk in the park.
What can i say?
Thanks a lot for taking the time to guide me Through this process and to answer my questions
With kindness and patience.

[Q] Rooting and upgrading to Jelly Bean

Hello,
I'm sorry if this question has been asked before, I am not good at this and very nervous of doing something wrong and destroying my mobile... If you could please help me?!
My Galaxy S is:
Frimware version
2.3.3
Baseband version
I9000BWJV2
Kernel version
2.6.35.7-I9000XWJVH-CL184813*[email protected]*#2
Build nr
Gingerbread.xwjvh
The mobile is very very slow and very difficult to use because of this. I have seen that I can root the mobile and upgrade it to Jelly Bean, and hopefully my problems will be resolved...
I am just not sure what kind of programme I should download to root it... also I'm very nervous about in what steps I need to go about to upgrading to Jelly Bean and what I need to download and in what order to do this.
I'm not sure what I download to my laptop's desktop and what I need on my mobile itself...
If you could help me with a step by step guide I would be eternally grateful.
Many Many Thanks
Wishing you all Happy Holidays.

Sorry for bothering you, I can only say I never done anything like this before, and am not skilled at this. Being an older person, I can't believe I'm even going try this on my own...

HELP!!!!!
I've done everything and am now updating to ice cream sandwich (thought I do this before I go to jelly bean)
I moved the two last programmes to my mobile, but now when I am about to select 11. Select cm-9.0.0-galaxysmtd.zip only gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip is showing!!!
What do I do, the other zip must have not been copied to my mobile, can I turn it off and try to put it on again or what do I do!!!!
I hope you can help me or I don't know what to do.... what do I do help.
Many thanks!!!
Is it normal for it to take over an hour for this??
Solved the problem with some thinking and restored the settings and re-did things and now the ROM is installing... so I think it is all going well!
I have beeen waiting for Select cm-9.0.0-galaxysmtd.zip this to finish, and it has been going on for an hour now, is this normal??
Thanks.
is not normal try redownloading the rom and try again to flash it... are you sure you have the i9000 and not i9000B ?
Flash?
Hi Thanks for replying,

I do have a i9000 definitely.
I will try to re do this stepp.... not good with this never done this before, I'm just trying to follow the thread on how to...

Bricking an i9000 is rare, unless you flash firmware for a different phone or pull the cable halfway.

Basically what you're doing is flashing the newest GB firmware for your phone using Odin and then rooting it, also using Odin. After that you have access to " recovery mode", from which you simply choose a zip file with your ICS or JB ROM and flash it.
If your phone is normally working now, I suggest you retry. This process is fairly simple, given you follow all the steps.
Edit: wait, looks like you have a Brazilian i9000.
Since you're using a Brazilian I9000B, disregard what i wrote above, most ROMs aren't compatible, read this

Basically what you're doing is flashing the newest GB firmware for your phone using Odin and then rooting it, also using Odin. After that you have access to " recovery mode", from which you simply choose a zip file with your ICS or JB ROM and flash it.
If your phone is normally working now, I suggest you retry. This process is fairly simple, given you follow all the steps.
Edit: wait, looks like you have a Brazilian i9000.

Baseband version
I9000BWJV2 <--- there isn't one exactly the same as mine, I don't know which one to chose...
UPDATE:
I went to that page to see if I could ask for the right one for my mobile and ended up on a page that say :
Announcement:
For safety reasons Sammobile has stopped ALL Samsung Series firmwares (for example: S-series: S5260, M-series: M610 and E-series: E1230) untill further notice! Plz do NOT post any request or start any thread asking where to find Samsung Series on Sammobile's firmware section!
TIA

If your build number is the same then it should work.

I live in the UK I'm a bit surprised that I have an Brazilian i9000... I can't read Brazilian
Operating system is Google
on that page http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-I9000B&pcode=0&os=1&type=1#firmware can I use anyone of those firmwares that has the number 2.3.3?
I was looking at the base version number... that is what I didn't find... sigh
I can download something tonight if I just get the right files to try this again.
If I can flash the mobile with the right firmware,
When I checked About the Mobile this is what it said
Frimware version
2.3.3
Baseband version
I9000BWJV2
Kernel version
2.6.35.7-I9000XWJVH-CL184813*[email protected]*#2
Build nr
Gingerbread.xwjvh
That is all the info I have since I can't get into the phone now...
I can't get into recovery mode only Download.
I don't understand where to go from here... can I somehow go back to my original and then get the correct firmware, ROM etc?
I'm very confused. I bought the mobile on the internet so that might explain it...?

If you don't care about the data you have now, you could try flashing the semaphore GB kernel and then flash whatever ROM you want or, you could download the latest firmware from Samfirmware and then I'll help you further!

Thank you for the reply. I don't care about my data but could please be more specific about those ways you mentioned, as i said i am not very familiar with XDA forum and sometimes it's confusing because there is much information.

Hoping you know how to use Odin, and also what a kernel is, Semaphore is a kernel which has CWM. At the moment, let's just aim for CWM. So you will have to download this file and flash it via Odin in the PDA tab.
Does my phone have to be in download mode or not while doing this? Different guides show that it has to and others that not.

The file I gave you has to be flashed via Odin. So the Download Mode would be a critical yes
