Hi there all,

a noob here trying to understand what you all are saying...after reading all the pages, many question marks pop up in my head and hope some kind soul can help me in understanding more...

1)I saw many of u recommend to do a full wipe before flashing to ICS.....full wipe means restore the phone to the condition as u buy before right?so does that means all the thing below will be wipe out?
-contacts
-message
-song
-picture
-game
-application

and how do u all do a full wipe?isit by setting->privacy->factory data reset?

2)To flash to ICS, basically I'll need to download the official ICS firmware from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487, right?

and then what should I do?I cannot seem to find a matching kernel version for my phone which is
2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF1.....

sorry for all the noob question.....I nvr root my devices before and already read all the info at the 1st page but still hard for me to understand those thing..

nope...my phone is not rooted....

Sry all...OT for a bit....what do u guys mean by FC?

I try very hard to come to term of FC but seems like not right....>.<

ah...ok..ty(looks like i were correct from the start..lol)

anyhow...still dun quite get it after reading all the post in here....guess I must try on hand only I'll be able to understand how to flash to ICS....just another quick question, isit possible to brick my SGS2?

which steps is the most important/crucial in order not to brick my phone?

aww....thanks for ur kindness....well last time I did try to pm some1 but in the end all I get were some insult and humiliation.....so since that day, not very dare to pm any1 anymore(even post something in here)

anyway, I'll read and understand all the thing 1st before I try.....
