[HELP] problem with flashing Samsung I9100

HI,
I need help in restoring my samsung galaxy s2 to stock
it is from Germany unbranded and i need to bring it back to stock OS ROM so that it can get software updates from KIES in future as i am giving this phone to someone with now flashing knowledge
tried flashing many files from samfirmware.com and XDA guides but everytime i connect it to KIES it says "This version of the device cannot be updated"
please help me in bringing galaxy s2 to german stock
Thank you

First of all keep calm.
You will need to use odin to get your phone working back.
See for docky 73's thread in dev section (sticky one). Download your regions firmware and flash with odin. You will get everything there. For how to flash with odin read second post in that thread carefully or read in deadly's guide in general section (it is also sticky)

You can any of those listed for your country/region.
Anything from outside should cause problems like data network not working etc.
You will need to flash csc of your region from odin again to fix that.

I didn't get what you mean.
Your phone is working again?
If yes you can still flash custom kernel/rom and flash back to stock rom via odin anytime.

[help]!!! Help the newbie here!!

Hi everyone, i encounter a problem earlier. Basically i rooted my phone days ago and i m still using stock rom without flashing custom roms. So i eager to try out the mod from Omega thread and install the Omega file from google play. After downloaded the mod (for omega rom) of scrolling wallpaper for TW and i flashed it. Booting up my phone with TW not responding, force close. Try again and again still cant boot into menu. I know i m stupid that didn't do a NAND backup before flashing it, and now i m stuck at this force close thing. So i found out out there there is a stock official rom XXUBMEA, i was previously from XXUAME2, can i flash this rom with odin?What is the complete process i need to do to flash this stock rom? Appreciate that you can help me so i can get back my phone!!

It will not delete the setting apps data etc since u are flashing with odin
However after flashing u make whatever data backup u need and reset the device completely so that the csc will match the new firmware and will work with kies

If you are rooted use Triangle Away to reset the flash counter and after that go straight to download mode and flash a stock rom with Odin. After the flash do a data factory reset and you have the phone as you initialy got it

How to use Odin see this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1372414.
Samsung oficial firmware see www.sammobile.com/firmware, you have to register first before you can download!
After this you are full stock if you flash the rom of your country/region and you will receive all OTA`s again.

hi all. I will be thankful if u can help me.
i have 9505 and when I connect it to my PC via USB instead of being charging , it will be warm and charge become decrease percent by percent. I have Stock Rom.whats Wrong with it??

Have you got the correct drivers installed by Kies? Tried another usb port (no hub)? Are you using the original usb cable?

Its not as hard as it seems to use Odin:
1. Close Kies, also in windows task manager!
2. Enable usb debugging on the phone.
3. Open Odin 3.04 as administrator
4. Place the downloaded rom that is unzipped ONCE and shows a .md5 file in PDA
5. Phone in downloadmode (after you used to reset the flash counter with Triangle Away)
6. Connect the phone with usb to Odin (IDCOM should light up and show a com number)
7. Press start and flash the rom.
Reboot and data factory reset in settings/accounts/reset
Done

Best answer.. easy to understand.. thanksss

BTW sir,.. i cant find any model of Samsung galaxy s4 GTi9505
can u help me to find th original firmwares?

You can try this rom with odin
http://samsung-updates.com/details/12205/Galaxy_S_4_Snapdragon/GT-I9505/XEF/I9505XXUBMGA.html
it's the last official rom from France. the only issue if it's not the right region code for your country is to had just issue with carrier network
why i choose the link from france ? cauz no specific region code for turkey and france is close to france (in geographical situation).
but if you remind the region code of your first stock rom i can try to find a link for the it

this is the easiest way to unroot and go back to stock and official galaxy s4 with TW.
follow this simple guide .

yeah i know that, you don't get me ..i have the drivers. i also went to download mode(recovery right?) when i'm about to flash that firmware (S5360_DXLL1_OLBLL1_DXLL1), it was all blank. to clarify is it a stock rom? i clicked pda,scs etc and find it but i didn't see anything to flash thru ODIN. hmm..
and the firmware old or new is there a diff? and what it is ?

where did you download the firmware from
if its from sammobile you will just have a single tar.md5 file which you place in the pda section
however not all phones can support single file flashing
you need to split the firmware into odin flashable parts which you can do with splitfus2
links to pre split odin flashable firmware and splitfus2 to split your own firmware can be found on my firmware thread which you can find either by clicking the link in my signature or by looking at the top of the 5360 dev section

hmm

thats fine but in that screenshot you have not extracted the files (they are still in a zip folder copy them to say the desktop or a folder)
put csc in csc
put phone in modem
put pda in pda
make sure odin is connected to your phone - it will say com then a number in a coloured box under com:id on the left hand side
then just flash it
I dont know what you mean by new and old firmware but obviously new firmware has bug fixes and later firmware has a new kernel ramdisk but in terms of flashing new and old firmware there is totally no difference
