Worked in 211 firmware
Are you telling us or asking us ? :P Lol
Will it work on JB .211 also ?
"fastboot flash boot S_DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel_FW-200_v2.elf".................. I tried this command and found it to be not executing........ it showed some errors..
then i found it is written "v2" in the command, so i changed it to be " v1" in accordance with the file name "S_DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel_FW-200_v1.elf"...... then in some seconds the command window stoped running and stated "finished totel time:2.635s"......
my phone is XSl and it is running the first official JB update.... bootloader was unlocked....
BTW, my phone wasnt rooted.....
