This is for i9100. I am not sure why your model got "G"..

Don't choose those official which will WIPE your phone since you din't do any back up.

Or try wait for any sifu to help you and confirm it. smile.gif

i9100g is different. I don't think those will work. Problem is he flash i9100 rom/kernel onto i9100g.

@jetterz_tan Can you get into download mode?

Wow there is really very little info on this "g" model. Why is digi selling it instead of the normal i9100? Do you have any luck getting your device to boot yet?

hi, any one of u experienced the home button not so responsive anymore?

some times i need to press a few times to register the press, other times it would prompt the voice command.

wondering whether should i be sending it to service centre and check.
*
Our device home button got double tap function to activate voice command. So when you press once it is waiting and see if got second press. Thats why slow. And that is also why you get voice command if you accidentally press twice.

Try disabling double tap function in settings > motion.

If your device is rooted there is also a fix to increase home button response time in xda.

have you updated your phone to the latest firmware via Kies?

before you root, please bear in mind that root will void your SME warranty. but, as mentioned by other user, if you are lucky, the SME technician wouldn't bother to check whether your device was rooted or not.

please go through the 1st page of this thread. it will helps a lot..no need to do other research yet coz it will get you confuse. just read all the items in 1st page...

Hey, i think you better upgrade siyah kernel to 1.7.2 if you have not. A few people reported the same case on 1.7 where suddenly device hang when using. 1.7.2 suppose to fix that.

i9100g firmware is different. You got KH4 (2.3.4). Normal i9100 got KH2 and now KI2 both still 2.3.3.
Its best you install kies and see if there is any update for your phone. Maybe KI4 if that's how the numbering goes.

Well, i just feel very "beh song" when I saw my RAM getting less.
For example, after I have killed and stop the background sevice of GUN BROS, it keeps re-run at the background again. So, anyone know how to block that from happening (except uninstalling the apps which is Of course settle everything lah)?

Anyway, another funny thing. I was prompted with the update on youtube. However, when I click in to update, The message " this upgrade is not available for your country". Why is it so?
It's really annoying me!

Means your youtube app got new version but youtube app not available in Malaysia so cannot download. If you got root use market enabler/access.

Kies is the official program by samsung to update their phone firmwares. Its a PC program. No need root. But i remember your phone is HK firmware so dunno got update or not.

I was only provided with an official receipt with advance payment of smart plan and the accessories, the phone was not included. When i asked that guy he just said the phone is under digi automatically, something like that. But actually they were out of stock and they got the stock from another shop. Is there something fishy going on? Also when i asked about registering warranty he said i can just take back everything to any digi centre. But the box says the retailer should sms to samsung, which i think they have not done so.
*
There should be 2 receipts. 1 for the smart plan advance payment and 1 for the phone. The receipt for the phone got IMEI number on it. Better go back and check. The digi salesperson told me any problem go find samsung NOT digi. doh.gif

I just updated my SGS2 to KI3 (2.3.5) via Odin.

had to reinstall XP on my 6 year old laptop, thank god it's still working...

and guess what? the previous yellow tint on the left side of my screen (most obvious in low brightness) is GONE!

weird thing is market is back to the old market, and although I installed a non-wipe version, everything was wiped...
and somehow google sync did not restore my settings and apps... weird
how do i update market to the latest anyway?
*
It will auto update but dunno when. Fast way, if your device is rooted, find the vending.apk for new market version in xda and replace the one in system/app. Fix permission and reboot.

You should go back and demand receipt. Even if registered I think samsung will still ask for purchase receipt to confirm the date you bought.
