hello friends
I am not able to install any ROM on my S2. I tried to download miui rom but after downloading when i try to install through ROM manager premium it is rebooting in recovery mode and not able to verify signature. i updated S2 with XXKG6 kernel recently. before that i has KG3. I n any case i am not able to put any ROM.
Anyone can give any resolution?
You need one of these kernels http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399 then you can boot into recovery and flash the zip.

Hi guys
so after some days of trolling the forums looking for an answer i am finally creating a thread.
I rooted my galaxy s2 using oneclick than i wanted to install CWM.
couldnt do it from rom manager so i flashed Cf-root.
chainfire says that rom manager is not compatible with CWM yet cynagen mod7 for galaxy s2 says you can install the ROM from rom manager premium.
Than there is this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118693
where people who have flashed the kernal say that some of them could use rom manager
so can you use Rom manager if you have flashed a CWM kernal other than CF-Root?
it didnt work for me using rom manger + chainfire's kernel + flashing back stock kernel
after installing cm with rom manger i only got into android recovery which gave me "signature something failure"
i reflashed chainfire kernel (dunno if that helped)
used cwm to flash cyanogen
profit
how is cynagen doing for you so far?

Download the cm7 nightly zip, put it in your internal sd card, flash codeworx's kernel, flash the cm7 zip from the recovery, flash it under install zip from sd card, if the sig verification fails you may have a bad download.
If you get stuck at the boot screen flash the zip twice

yes, you can use rom manager with CM7 (cm7 uses codeworkx kernel with cwm 4.0.1.x), works perfectly.
that answers my unasked question that if CM7 has CWM thanks guys gonna flash tomorrow maybe
i can confirm that rom manager works with the kernel i posted above
you can flash the kernel using the CWM manager and than use rom manager
I had a Optimus One earlier and the way it worked there was flash CWM through ROM manager and no matter what kernel you use CWM would stick.
I wanted to know why in SGSII kernel comes with CWM inside it and does not work
standalone like it works in many other devices.I tried searching for answers but could not.
Thanks.
You can't flash cwm through rom manager because the stock kernel won't allow non-signed zip's, so signature verification has to be disabled in the kernel, i guess the dev's then figure what the hell lets throw cwm into the kernel while we're making a kernel.
Hope you can help me. I rooted my friends phone via odin. When i was about to flash a rom via cwm recovery mode - its opening to a "manual mode", im unable to flash the rom. Hope you can help me with this. Thank You
which rom are you trying to flash via cwm?
did you copy the rom to your internal sd card so that cwm can see it.
I have root my SGS2 and I put on it ICS Rom. Now I can go in clockwork mode with Rom Manager but not with the bootons options when the phone is off. Can someone help me please?!
What happens when you do it?
flash another kernel/rom
Root but does that mean you also installed CWM ??????
jje
It seems you have flashed a rootless ICS version - flash a corresponding CF-Root kernel for your build and you will have CWM available from cold boot.
Respect members,
I recently decided to upgrade by Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 from default 2.3.4 to "PACMAN Custom Rom" which looked amazing to me. I haven't USB cable so after a bit search, i found "Framaroot" and rooted by mobile. I have downloaded the "PACMAN Rom" but the only problem i have is that i am unable to flash "CWM recovery" without USB. Is there any solution? And if Once i flash "CWM recovery". Should i install "Dorimanx Kernel" as suggested by "bluefa1con" ? Dorimanx Kernel in its thread clearly states that you shouldn't flash the kernel if you are using GingerBread. Then how should i update? Should i just let the PACMAN Rom use the Stock Kernel.
Please don't mind if it seems kiddish because i am completely new to this.
Your Help is Appreciated.
You can flash cwm recovery without usb, you just need to find to correct package and flash it via stock recovery, i think you will need JB bootloader too tho. But, i don't recommend first time flashing without a USB cable, if something goes wrong you can't use odin to go back, so just borrow one or buy one, they aren't expensive, and you can flash JB stock via odin and then flash a custom rom, that would be better imo.
Either use the appropriate CF kernel to root and install CWM, or upgrade to JB/ICS using Odin and flash Siyah/Philz kernel. Then, once u have CWM recovery, flash your desired custom ROM.
why my device always gets stock when i try to install CWM recovery for my GT-I9100? i try to install the version 6.0.2.9 using odin but my device just boot with the start up "samsung galaxy I9100" then i hear a start up tone but the screen is just black then nothing,i just flash stock rom to back my phone to its normal condition but still want to have a CWM recovery on my rooted device please help me guys.
heres my device>>>>>
AFAIK, you can't just flash only cwm. It comes bundled with a custom kernel. You can try philz.

Haven't tried it myself ever, so read it carefully before acting on it.
