Odin is not official. You can flash anything with odin if the rom supports it.

rephrase my sentence, the so call "official" here mean not beta or trial version.

I dunno where you getting at but the ONLY official rom from Samsung for Galaxy S2 in Malaysia comes through kies. The latest is KH2 (2.3.3)

Any other ROM whatsoever you flash through odin is not official for Galaxy S2 in Malaysia. It maybe official in some other country (or XDA) but not in Malaysia.

I do get it from XDA. Does this flashing will void the phone warranty?

You ask to late. Warranty already void. Just remember to flash back official rom if you ever need to visit samsung service center. Also clear the flashing counter if possible.

That is the local official version. It is not latest
It is korean poor english meaning no newer update availble
Unroot phone to recieve official update thro kies
Since rooted why bother. Just download latest from xda or samfirmware n use odin to flash

But my 2 SGS2 rooted with CFRoot can update to DXKH2 using Kies. Weird sweat.gif

lol it is kinda slow to wait for kies official update. the default stock rom the more u explore the more u find the limitation there. I believe majority of the user are flashing it.

Use the JIG - read page 1 accessory section post#8

Also read post#6 on jig issues you need to know

Simply if you flash n try to revert back to stock rom, remove traces of flashes if the tech want to void your warranty he can still do it. So once you embark on root/flash rom be mentally prepared warranty is void. If you get foc services than is a bonus.

Benny used alot of time to setup the guides, tips etc. on the first few post. The most you can do is read them as a way to thank him.

Anyway look at post #6

Since not rooted use mybackuppro to backup your
3rd party apps only. All data associated with the apps cannot be backup unless phone is rooted
This app also backup your contact, calendar, sms etc
There are 2 backup options

Just find a wifi spot with good speed download. Gameloft data download is slower than others. Your download will resume when you get cutoff. Patience is all you need
