rooted my sgs2..

few noob question (YES, i have read the first page, but still..  blush.gif ) :

i want to remove the yellow triangle warning sign. tried to follow >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399, but it said "extract the CF-root file until u get the zimage file": I COULDN'T GET IT. after extracted, i just got only 1 file CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OJV_KF1-v4.0-CWM4.tar. where is the zimage? need to re-extract the .tar file? but using what software? apparently my PC cant extract .tar file.  blush.gif needed to push the zimage file into SD card....

and, in order to remove the yellow triangle also, will need to flash stock kernel. so i downloaded : I9100XWKF1_OLBKE5_DXKF1 zip file, then extracted it, i got 4 different files. i recognized them as KERNEL, CODE, MODEM and the other file i dun really knw what its stands for >> GT-I9100-MULTI-CSC-OLBKE5.tar.md5. as mentioned in the guide, using ODIN, flash the stock samsung kernel. does this mean, in ODIN, i have to check on PDA then select the file with the KERNEL name only, then start flash??

last but maybe not least  biggrin.gif , about nand backup. im not really clear about the term. please correct me if im wrong, to perform a nand backup, go to CWM> backup.. just that? the backup file, where can i find it? should it be saved somewhere else?

to all sifus, thanks in advance.  notworthy.gif

1) just flash the .tar file..no need extract..use ODIN tick PDA...open from pda..

2) yes..check on PDA flash the kernel only..

3) yup..it saves at clockworkmode>backup> (the name of your backup)..

use CWM do to a backup  smile.gif
the only problem i faced so far is the battery indicator doesn't show the actual percentage like lite'ning rom  unsure.gif
i use cwm to do backup before wipe it, and after flash to villain wat i c is most of my apps are restored automatically. only afew need to redownload again from market there, but not a problem since i can access to them in my apps there.  brows.gif
one more thing, my zenonia 3 data all gone mad.gif  start again at lvl 1  cry.gif  cry.gif

Download 7-zip to extract .tar file. the zImage file is inside the .tar file. Not sure if flashing from the .tar itself will work. I myself bought the jig to remove the exclamation mark.

I believe if you put brightness low and data & gps off, you can save ALOT of juice...just my thoughts though.

thanks for reply..

I just tried this out of curiosity:

I JUST FLASH THE STOCK KERNEL FROM ODIN, in ODIN, click PDA, choose the stock kernel only, then start flash. phone reboot, THE YELLOW TRIANGLE GONE! no extra step, thats it. DONE.

so i wonder why there are extra steps in the guide to push zimage into sd-card and flash it thru CWM. << in my case, NOT NEEDED TO BE DONE
