I decided to update my rooted x10a from generic 2.1 to Wolfbreak 2.3.3. I installed xRecovery and Busy box couple weeks ago. I made a backup of my 2.1 ROM with xRecovery. Yesterday, I put 2.3.3 on and flashed. Everything was fine except I had no contacts and whatnot on phone as usually happens. Had trouble getting into Market and even tried creating new account, no luck. I rebooted then and went into xRecovery thinking I could restore certain data. I chose the wrong Restore and it started and said Checking MD5 sum, then it was putting my previous backup on phone. At this point was like "oh no" and driving car to work. Now its at the SonyEricsson screen and keeps rebooting. I've gone back into xRecovery and tried Factory Reset, Wipe Cache part. and Wipe Dalvik. Then to Install custom zip, I choose from SD card and WolfGB2.3TWv3.5.
It says Installing: Finding update package... E:Cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (Device or resource busy)
E:Cant mount SDCARD:WolfGB2.3TWv3.5.zip Installation aborted.
Tried hooking up to computer today and even when trying to get into Flash mode it goes in but after 2-3 minutes, it reboots.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as at this moment I have had to go back to using my SE w810i (good phone but no android)
Can't you use the flashtool and flash SE 2.1 firmware? Or SEUS? You said after 2-3 minutes the phone (seemingly automatically) reboots, but does it reboot even when you are in the middle of flashing a ROM?
You should be able to start from the beginning as long as you can get the phone into flashing mode.
After playing some games on computer, went back and reflashed it to 2.1. Now hopefully will be able to get back to 2.3.3, this time wont be a bonehead. Thanks for help dude!

Hey all,
I am able to flash new roms, and after it does its looping i can get everything up and running, service, 3g, etc. Once i do a reboot and it loads up the rom again, i get no service, and a FC error saying "Process system is not responding"
Does anyone know the cause or how to fix this?
More info: i started on bb55 CM6.1.3 v4.5.7, upgraded to v06 and got this error
THEN i had to repair via sony pc companion, back to Rogers rom. then installed tripnmiui final, everything worked. once i rebooted i got no signal and fc msg.
Only thing i can possibly think of is your making some kind of error in the installation process of your ROMs. Repair your phone once again and follow the steps carefully on flashing new ROMs. Sounds like it could be a possible basebrand problem as well because Tripnmiui runs on basebrand .49 and .52. Should have a clean installation if you follow the steps carefully =)
thanks for the reply!
for the installation of tripnmiui i installed the rom and then changed the bb to 52. The rom was up and running, and i was able to get all services, but once i rebooted, nada...

seems like the baseband is giving me problems, the phone was working the whole weekend on 2G, without mobile data connection, now i entered the APN´s, and switched to 3G and it reboot over and over, doesnt letme change the connection mode to 2G again
Hey guys,
need some help here. Some time ago (about 4 weeks), my phone started to crash randomly. Example: I was listening to some music, suddenly the music stopped. I thought I accidentially unplugged my earphones, but instead, my phone rebooted, without any further notice. Since then I got those reboots several times a day, not only while listening to music, but surfing the web, doing literally nothing (during work, I suddenly hear my phone reboot while idling in my pocket) or accessing any app installed on my device.
I am rooted and use a custom kernel and a custom rom. At first I thought, maybe there's something wrong with your kernel/rom, so I updated those. (Was on LeoMar75's Revolution Rom 2.5 -> installed 2.7.1; updated to latest Siyah kernel, I think it was 2.0.1 or something) Of course, I did a full wipe, but it didn't help at all. The first day everything looked fine, but then the phone started crashing again. After some more time, I changed to CheckROM RevoHD 2.0 and then 3.1.1. and changed kernel to Siyah. 2.1.1. then DK-kernel 2.1. Always the same results, always random reboots.
In the end, I thought to myself, that custom rom/kernel might not work properly on my device, so I went into cwm, wiped everything, installed stock kernel and flashed original rom via Kies. But, I STILL got those reboots.
Just for the record, when I say "wipe", i mean going into CWM and wiping cache and dalvik chache, batterystats, doing a factory reset and formatting /system, /data, /sdcard and /emmc. But the last time I did this, I noticed that i could not format /sdcard, I could'nt even mount it. I'm on CWM 5.0.2.7. now.
After that much of annoying text, my question is: Am I doing something wrong or is my phone broken? And if I'm doing something wrong, please tell me what, 'cause I'm kinda desperate here...^^
Looking forward to your help
Check to see if any apps are installed to external SD. If so, move them to internal storage. Also, in my experience, uninstall Dolphin HD if you have it on your device.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Hi SaneinOne,
I have no apps installed to my external_sd. I only store some music there. Additionally, I delete all android related folders from my external_sd before inserting it into a freshly flashed phone.
About Dolphin HD, already heared of that, tried it, didn't help.
But thanks for your help
No clues? C'mon guys, please, I'm desperate.
Maybe it a hardware problem ...
Try using warranty.
Dont know what your rom is but .
I would clean phone and start over .
Boot recovery
Mounts and storage FORMAT cache sd card data system
Remove battery
Boot to download mode flash stock rom via Odin .
Clear Custom rom counter with USB jig if needed .
Return to service centre .
jje
tEsT_MaStEr, JJEgan,
thanks for your replies.
I flashed everything back to stock and reset the flash counter with my friends' jig. I returned the phone to my store, they said they'll send it to Samsung to check it up. Let's see what happens...
Yay, 6 weeks without smartphone...
Hi there, ive looked all over online and on here for about a week solid now for a solution for this and cannot find one anywhere! My situation is.. im running gingerbread 2.3.3 on my S2 that I got in 2011. As soon as I got it I flashed the Lite'ning ROM to it. It worked fine up until christmas just gone and just all of a sudden started saying this error message when I tried to open anything, such as messages, contacts, google, camera etc..
"sorry the application ..... (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. please try again"
So I have just been trying to get the phone back to orignal factory settings by putting a factory ROM on, or install a new custom ROM in the hope that this will solve the problem and get the phone working normally again. I used Odin and installed a custom ROM successfully (so I thought) but when I rebooted the phone I was still stuck on Lite'ning ROM and everything was how it was before. The same happened when I installed a factory ROM. I also tried to install a custom ROM via the SD card, but this failed everytime.
One other thing.. when I restore to factory settings while on the CMW and then reboot the phone.. nothing has gone, its exactly the same, with all my contacts, pictures and apps. I never knew it would be so hard to restore my phone. Im hoping someone here can advise me on what to do... Ive a feeling it might be to do with the fact the phone is gingerbread 2.3.3 and all the custom ROMs now are made for ICS or Jelly Bean? If so how do I get my phone to work with these ROMs. Thanks for reading and I really hope someone can help!

I think you should try a 3-files odin flash rom.
If you search in google for "Odin 3-files i9100" than you will find the rom
Hello everyone,
I have a problem with my Neo V and it's very unusual. I will tell my whole day which this issue happened.
I was using a Custom ROM and I don't remember which one I was using. Anyway, one day I couldn't open Settings and I didn't care that much and continued using it that way. When I think that I will be mad at my phone, I made up my mind changing my ROM to PAC-ROM (JB). But in order to change to PAC-ROM, I had to unlock my bootloader. To open bootloader in official way, I type *#*#73...... thing to get the service menu. But nothing happened after I tried it 5-6 times. Maybe it was about ROM or that setting issue. I dont know. I had a backup which was made when I had the stock rom with superuser. So I restore and I could open service menu. It was saying that I could do the unlocking. Then I unlocked bootloader.
Okay, here is the when all started.
Before I tried to install PAC-ROM, i tried another one which was JB again. But I forgot to change the Kernel as well... And when I tried to install the rom, I had an error. That was when I think to install PAC-ROM. I tried that too and I had the same error! Then I realized that I didn't install a JB kernel which I had to. I had a stock ICS kernel. I found a kernel and plug my phone as a mass storage in CWM my computer froze. And then when I tried to unplug my phone from my PC my phone froze too! You know, I wiped everything to install new ROM, but when my CWM closed, I had to install Neo V's Stock Rom and then root, install CWM and a new ROM. But today I figured out that my battery doesn't drain, until my battery is %0. It says it's %0 and then my phone close. I wrote down my whole day in order to get your help guys. I searched but couldn't find a thing about my problem. Oh and there is one more thing. I installed a programme which shows your battery stats and things. The programme says the same as my phone about "battery %" but it gives the temperature and it changes when I used wifi or mobile data. What this problem can be and how can I solve this.
Thanks for your help.
Okey I solved the problem by wiping the battery stats.
