CWM issues maybe a reflash? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to reflash a new Clockwork Mod recovery over the recovery image on my SG2?
What has happened is I flashed my Chainfires Root KF2 with CWM
Then I flashed the original Firmware KF2 over the top to get rid of the Yellow !
The CWM (as stated in the Chainfire post) may not work properly due to reflashing over it with another firmware (my 2nd flash)... I get this weird
can't access CSC system/csc issue... when i boot into recovery mode.
I was thinking if I could reflash a version of CWM over the top it might fix up the issue...
Any ideas? is it possible?
Cheers

Yes

Did instructions not tell you to flash kernel not firmware .
That fails do a wipe of phone put a stock full firmware on and start again is often the easy way as it clears all and even better if you format the phone before flashing .

Oh so if i do the process again, but instead of reflashing stock the firmware I reflash the kernal at the end to get rid of the !.
Sorry i am a newb, I come from a modding a motorola backflip... seemed so much easier...
Sorry my bad... I did Flash CF-Root Firmware
and then flashed the orginal Kernel over the top....
So i did it correctly the first time...

If you get rid of the yellow triangle, just buy a jig at ebay (around 5 €). After plugging the jig on your phone it will boot in download mode and all download count data will be deleted.
For me it removed the yellow triangle at the boot screen (Kernel: CF-Root 4.0 KF2).

[Q] Help, flashed wrong kernel on SGS2

So this is the case, I had a rooted sgs2 running on MIUI 2.3.16 and brightly decided to flash the kernel into siyah.
Obviously that didnt work out too well, and I ended up in a situation where the phone stucks at startup showing the sgs2 logo, and wont budge from there.
I have no clue what was the kernels "version". Is there anything that can be done?
Allready tried to search the forums, but didnt find a similar situation.
Boot into recovery & do a factory reset. If that doesn't work, reflash Miui which will reinstate the Miui kernel.
If you can't get into recovery, reflash stock firmware in Odin, CFRoot the phone, then reflash Miui.
I'm assuming you should still be able to enter cwm/recovery... just go in to that and re-flash miui

You should find out what kernel it MIUI used, else you can end up
try very many different hehe.
But no panic, I guess you have Odin on youre pc?
Just start phones downloadmode by volume down-home, poweron.
Connect to usb cable, fire up Odin, and flash kernel (PDA in Odin)
Good luck man
Cant get to recovery, Only thing that i can do is to use Odin, how do i get back to stock kernel, or, even better, anyone know the MIUI kernel?
Flash stock in Odin as I said, then CFRoot it. If you've got a Nandroid (CWM) backup, you should then be able to restore that rather than flash Miui. If not, flash Miui in CWM. Stock roms/instructions for flashing same can be found here, if links don't work search for stock firmware on Samfirmware.com.
What Siyah kernelndid you flash? I flashed beta6 over the latest MIUI and it just went to a black screen.
Just hold down the power button with vol up + home. It'll eventually boot to recovery where you can flash MIUI again.

odin -> bootloader flash -> wait for logo battery out -> odin flash stock -> odin cf root -> recovery flash ur miui and kernel again
Issue solved!
Thankyou for you all for your quick replies and help!
Good How did you fix it ?
managed to get to cwm recovery after flashing one of the cf-root kernels, and from there on, just flashed miui all over again...
Ahhh OK. Cool. Glad you got it sorted

stuck after cwm flushing

Im stuck after i flushed cwm5 through odin! i have just the yellow triangle but nothing after that! im able to get into recovery mode (the blue one) and download mode also but nothing else!
Flash latest official firmware, http://samfirmware.com/ via Odin and will be OK.
After that remember to use safe kernel.
No need to flash stock firmware since you can enter recovery. Simply flash a zip version of a custom kernel like siyah or dorimanx. That comes with a custom version of CWM recovery and should get rid of the softbrick. Thereafter you can flash a custom ROM or stick to stock based on what you want.

People are definitely getting stupider. Also its flash not flush.

I don't really understand why did you need to flash recovery, while it comes updated with the kernel. Basically you need yo flash a kernel with odin now that's compatible with your android version. Not hard to find. Your phone will boot no problem

Hmm.. triangle away has always worked whenvever i use it.
If you want to get rid of it that badly i suggest you go back to stock (to remove it) and then flash a custom recovery.. and then flash PhilZ kernel. It wont affect the triangle.

can you suggest me a custom recover and give me the link for philz kernel? thank you!
Depending your rom kernel code, you can find his thread here
Please help me. My Galaxy S2 show Yellow triangle on Start Logo.And then stuck at Logo.What can i do.
If your phone is stock & isn't rooted, boot into recovery - factory reset. If your phone is rooted & is running stock earlier or older than Android 4.0.4, boot into recovery - factory reset. If your phone is running rooted stock Android 4.0.4 or if the factory reset doesn't work in other examples, get stock rom from Samfirmware, flash with Odin in download mode.
'My Galaxy S2 show Yellow triangle on Start Logo.And then stuck at Logo.What can i do' doesn't even make it remotely easy to give you help. I reckon I've done a pretty fair job given that though. If you want help in future, you need to tell us everything about your phone (rom, Android version, etc) & what you've been doing with it recently.

[solved]Root installed, but can't replace 3e with cwm

Hi.
Im kinda new with root, cwm and roms. But I've stucked in with one thing. I've got i9100 intl. I've wanted to install CM10.2 but, anytime i try to replace 3e with cwm, after reboot still 3e starts, so I can't go any further. In mid 2013 I've replaced old 4.0.4ICS with noncarrier XEO (Poland) 4.1.2 Samsung orginal. I've used Odin, and everything works fine. But now I would like to learn more about roms, but can't, couse cwm won't replace orginal 3e. If I did something wrong, please point me.

install dorimanx kernel v8.43 via odin

Ok. I will try, but what if I would like to test cm? Is this mean I can't install cwm recovery at all? Im new, like I've wrote, but not new in Linux. I thought that, if I can install cwm recovery that I would install anyrom I wish. But I will try with dorinmanx anyway.
//edit
Kernel installed successfully. Does it mean, I can try to install cwm recovery or CM? How to remove yellow triangle which appears on the start?

Along with the kernel you should have a custom recovery installed, now, and proceed to mount any custom ROM you want to try out.

Q4: When I turn my phone on, I see a yellow triangle. What is it and how can I get rid of it?
It will appear if you have flashed a non-official kernel from download mode. If you flash kernels using CWM recovery, Mobile Odin etc. you won't get this yellow triangle.
The easiest ways to remove it are to use the app Triangle Away OR use a USB Jig.

Thanks for help. Installing dorimanx kernel with cwm gives me oportunity to test CM and many others. Actually I need to export/import full contact list and text messages from stock to CM or any other rom and lastly be happy to use random rom.
Thanks again.

[Q] yellow traingle after cwm :(

hi all,
i just purchased this S2 I9100 handset from one of my freind..he had rooted and installed some kitkat resurrenction mix custom rom which i did not like
i flashed cwm through odin but when it rebooted in yellow traingle..i cna go into cwm recovery mode by presiing (vol up+power+home), yellow triangle appears briefly and then cwm menu appears..but when i select REBOOT SYSTEM it again goes into yellow traiangle..
i have searched on net and right now downloading stock rom from sammy I9100XWLST FOR indian s2 i9100LKAINU

hmm... your phone is soft bricked....flash the stock rom, root your phone, install and execute triangle away, this should fix your problem
sorry for bad english
If you still want to, you can remove this triangle. But it's not doing any harm, so you can leave it like it is. Just so you know.
