ReplyDeleteGreat Tutorial! Works fine. Thanx man!
ReplyDeleteits work!!! I installed the old bootloader with ODIN, and works so great.. thanks
ReplyDeleteMy Jig isn't working either with criskelo rom, Gingerbread 2.3.6.
ReplyDeleteSo after flashing an old boatloader I can remove the triangle.
But when I install Criskelo's rom again the triangle will be back again?
Does this mean you can't run a new rom without the triangle?
why you flash custom ROM again after removing triangle by using old bootloader.
Deleteyes... you have to remove yellow triangle everytime you flash a custom ROM or root the phone
Hey,
ReplyDeleteI have a S2 on 2.3.6. It suddenly got bricked and I tried to use the jig I bought from Amazon to bring it to DL mode. However, it didn't work at all and when I plug the jig in, the black screen of death appears as before.
Please help me!
make sure your battery is up and also try it on some other galaxy S2
Deletethe usb jig is not necesary to remove the triangle. just flash a secure kernel in and thats all. the jig is a maust have only to reset the custom rom download counter.
