I foully wipe already no OS in phone so cannot boot up normally, stuck at yellow triangle screen except in CWM.

Found that I can mount USB in CWM so copy the zip into SD card (internal memory). Problem solved. Thanks
You never should have to wipe /system by yourself. The rom will always do that for you (if it doesn't, then you shouldn't be using that rom). The most you have to wipe manually is /cache and dalvik. :D

KH1 to KH3

Okay tried ki1 for a full day.
In comparison with kh3, I prefer kh3. Somehow, kh3 is able to let me send/receive even in tunnels or at rare occasion, in the lift. For ki1, train moves at a higher speed, the connection like too hectic. Keep switching back to 2g/3g,frequently seeing 2g than 3g De.

Hi. Do you have the download link for KH3 ? Just tried KI1 yesterday. It was okay outside, but it was crawling when I was at work.

Would like to try KH3. Thank you much. Really appreciate it.. :)

Sorry bro.

Sorry bro. Already did a Google search and I had like 3 downloads from 3 different links. And they were from UL sites like Rapidfire and FileSonic. Not really the easiest sites to DL.

Just wanted to be sure I have the right file actually. I mean if it's tried and tested by users, just want to be sure I get the same results by using the same link.

No offense though. Still appreciate the help. Thank you.. :)

Stock ROM

Hello all.

Just got my S2 yesterday. Not going to root or flash ROM yet, wanna see how the battery performs. But, thought I chime in the current stock version that Samsung has started distributing on the new batches of S2:

Android: 2.3.3
Baseband: I9100DXKI1
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100DXKI2-CL564948
Build: GINGERBREAD.DXKI2
Swype: 3.23.89

Thanks to all the contributions, this thread has been very informative.

When does it switch? If I'm not wrong, the phone only switches to H+ when there is a download/upload going on. When the phone is just idling (even with screen on) without any data to process, it is supposed to drop to 3G.

It switches to 3G even if I am browsing or in a game that requires internet e.g. words with friends....it takes ages for it to send a word over.

EXAMPLE
Send a word
H+ - send send send, oh wait gotta save batt
3G - continue to send but cannot get through, oh yea let me try H+ again

Rinse and repeat 3 times.

is there anyway to back them up totally? then reinstall everything back in one go after the firmware update?
