So i think the update doesnt unroot ur phone, thats good smile.gif
MyGKernel is a custom kernel that support CWM (Clockwork Mod)
Ya, the orange theme is a custom rom~
So if u wan to install the custom rom, flash MyGKernel via ODIN (enter downloads mode Vol.down+home+power)
then flash the custom rom via CWM (recovery mode Vol.up+home +power)
Then u can enjoy a rooted i9100G v Orange custom rom but with the yellow triangle logo on startup~
(can use usb jig to clear it i think, correct me if I'm wrong)

SuperROM is not by juffo, its by superatmos. juffo ROM is by Homam Ageel (aka juffo).

I'm still using SuperROM v1.0 with superatmos kernel v1.1. All is good, so no plans to change.

if you rooted i can teach u . .  i just tried a method by replace the original apk and over 3 day with camera playing random shot haven get camera fail..
2nd solution update the latest firmware via kies.. most of them say it fixed the bug..
i see... it wont wipe your storage.. if not mistaken it wipe system file.. not so sure.. u need ask earlier those people who posted and updated

hye, i'm rooted and mine on 2.3.6 I9100GDZKJ2
