Hi,
I flashed the new Build of CM9, i thought it was a normal ROM that you would flash like a another ROM, but then someone told me that i had to flash something called Gapps + fix, but since i can't access to market, or paste files to my phone i can't do so much.
I want to go back to my old rom (checkrom), but i didn't do any backup and i don't have the rom in my phone (i removed it). Please how can i solve this problem?
thanks
Never tried CM9, but if you haven't backed up and "removed" your previous ROM, you've lost all your data/settings.
Factory reset and clean install of checkrom seems to be your only option - please correct me if I'm wrong, CM9 people.
Advice - Never ever ever ever flash a new ROM without a backup - asking for trouble.
what happens when you put your phone in download mode and connect it to your pc with odin?

Please understand. When you're installing CM9, you cant access your phones memory, because you'll need a program from market, or you need to put a apk in your phone. But since i forgott to install Gapps together with this rom, now i don't have market, and i can't access my memory = This mean, i can't install my new rom.
So i need to know if there's another way to fix the mtp problem or what's called so i can put files to my phone.
thanks

I havn't tried that yet, but that should work. Do you mean i should install stock ROM from there, and then root phone again?
there is something called SDK, its for debugging and you can push apps on your phone with this!
Not sure how it works though, you should check out some guides first
You should still be able to boot into download mode and use Odin to flash a stock ROM.
Put your SGII into download mode by pressing the volume down button, the home button and the power button at once.

Thanks, yes i know that, but i wanted to use this option as last way out, maybe there's a way to access memory anyway.
You can go to xda with your phone so you can download gapps

Answer - With difficulty becauseyou didn't do a backup
You didn't mention the mtp problem at all in your original post.
Doesn't matter which ROM you install, you should always do a backup, and I'm sure you know that..??
As said, if you don't do a backup, you're asking for problems. You didn't backup, you've got problems. Live and learn.
Lykke til.
This really is not that complicated, ..
Download the app "Android Commander" ... google it ...
Install it ...
Make sure debugging is on, on your phone ...
Run android commander , you now have a windows file manager that you can use to dump files to , or even double click to install apps to your phone ....
you cant just go back to checkrom from cm9.
you have to flash a stock rom via odin and root it again or flash prerooted via odin. then you can install new rom zips with cwm.
as far as i know you cant even use a normal backup when cyanogen is flashed. tried it on galaxy s when i started flashing, but it just doesnt work.
when going back from cyanogen you always have to flash stock with odin.

1. Flash a stock rom with Odin. 2. Start again with your flashing.
It's really basic knowlodge.
Hi all.
I need some help and advice.
Being new to phone tinkering i dont want to do it wrong first time round.
My SE X10i is currently running gingerbread 2.3.3 but its rooted.
I would like help putting my phone on something better as the internets slow and lags a lot.
Im happy to try anything to make this phone as it could be or should be.
I dont know what rom to use or kernel as this is my first time doing anything to any phone.
AS you can guess im asking as i dont want to brick my phone on the first attempt.
If this is in the wrong place i applogise now.
Thanks if you can help.
I hate being a noob at something.
I can give more info if needed.
Thx wraith36
The internet will be always laggy. Very smooth browser is opera mobile. However the stock ROM itself is very laggy. I would recommend you to install some custom ROM. If you already have rooted phone it will be very easy to change the ROM. Just install xrecovery via flashtool (when the phone is turned on) and download ROM you want. Every ROM thread will have an exact installation guide. P. S. If you want to change kernel you have to unlock bootloader.
I could send you some necessary files to do that and guide you through unlocking the bootloader and the ROM change.
Just choose the ROM you want to have
Use this tool forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415600
Thanks for the help jakuburban
I will have a look into the ROM's and see what's what.
Do you recommend any.
I used FlashTool_0.2.9.1-GBready_root_xRec to root my phone, is that right?
I did the loader part with this and the kernel part also with FlashTool.
Well I hope I have.
You can send me what you think might help.
Beggars cant be choosers as they say.
And I need all the help I can be given or find.
And thx for you help with this.

Root the Device Install Xrecovery and CWM from the tool
and then u can decide on what Roms to Update...
Oh, You've done already almost everything. Now You just have to install xRecovery and choose which kind of ROM would You like> MIUI or a stock based ROM.
MIUI is a little bit slower but it has more options like themes etc
Stock based ROM looks almost like the stock ROM but this is the fastest one
MIUI I am using: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377633
Stock based ROM I used: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399040
After You downloaded flashable ROM You have to enter the xRecovery and flash it.
INFO: When changing to MIUI erase the data
OK I got all the info you have posted.
How do I add xRecovery
Do I download that to and install it or is that in my phone already?
I'm a noob at this.
Sorry if im slow at this.

First method
Have Your phone turned on (USB debbuging also) and connect it to flashtool.
Then the "xRecovery" button should enable. Hit this button and You're done.

Click to collapse
Second method
Download this file and using root explorer copy the files from bin/ > system/bin/ and from xbin/ > /system/xbin/ and reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
To enter xRecovery keep pressing back button (press>release>press...) while the phone is booting ("sony sericsson" text, or while loading some other kernel)
OK jakuburban.
I downloaded what you said.
I've tryed to see if xRecovery will highlite itself but it never.
So now i need to try the other method.
OK jakuburban xRecovery installed now.
When I choose a ROM do I need to choose one that suite's we I am, IE in the UK?
Or can I choose any as long as it's in english?
Up to now things are going OK seeing I've not done this kind of thing before.
Thx for understanding.
wraith36 said:

Is this a command I need to type in or a direction for me to follow?
copy the files from bin/ > system/bin/ and from xbin/ > /system/xbin/
Sorry were do I copy them to? Do they need to go in a specific place in my phone?
If I start to stress you any just say and we can leave it till tomorrow.
I'm OK with it and don't want to get your back up any.

No You don't have to use any commands. (but You can If You want to have it more difficult )
the file I've sent You contains folder named system.
in system are folders called bin and xbin.
Get into bin folder and copy the files (with root explorer) to Your /system/bin/*here the files
That's what I meant with bin/ > system/bin/
After that do the same with the xbin folder
Sorry I updated my last post to say I have xRecovery installed now.
My fault for the confusion

I've never looked for a language. Everything worked fine, so just choose ROM You want
So when I change ROM do I also change the KERNEL or is that not necessarie.
Sorry my spelling is awe-full and same go's for my spell checker lol

Most of the ROM's should work with the stock kernel, but I would suggest You to stick to the KERNEL the developers are suggesting. For me the best ROM is Doomkernel, because it works with MIUI and a stock ROM and also has overclocking
So the link you gave at the start for MIUI will that have the KERNEL with it or separate?
Sorry to bug you with all this.
I apologise for it now.

No, it won't. Most of the times if You will be able to boot into xRecovery, however if You delete to much it could just stuck. But then You can use SEUS, it worked always for me, or flashtool.
jakuburban which do I install first the kernel or the rom.
Do I use the flash tool I used at the start to root the phone.
Once I know that I guess I can start.
And good morning to you.

Good morning,
I would suggest You to install the ROM first and then the kernel, because if You do it in the other way You may not be able to enter xRecovery.
Yes You can use this flahtool, I use it too

Hi Mike,
You can flash either cwm or twrp (both found in the dev forum) either needs to be flashed via fastboot. I was using cwm but then switched to twrp since cwm was doing quirky things for me. After you get that done, virtuous rom or androwookie rom are a good place to start I have run both but prefer androwook. Once you get comfortable with that, you may want to do a full wipe of your tab and reinstall the rom. Mr.wookie, the dev for androwook is planning on making this an option during the install, so it will probably be available in the next release or so. Do lots of reading and then when your ready, make your choices. You can always switch things around afterwards. One other thing, once you have your rom installed, make a nand backup so you have a point to go back to if you mess around like most of us:laugh:
oh ok. well i want to get a recovery on here and a new rom. i sent you a pm. can you please message me back. i would appreciate it if you can help me. thank you.

Seems like you need to install a new rom on your phone. Do you have a custom recovery? If yes, what recovery do you have?
I can give you a new rom and instructions on how to install it, but you will need CWM or TWRP for that.
Cheers,

You need to do some research before you make things worse. You will have to have a pc. Then it is a simple matter of flashing the device which will wipe it completely.

Watch these YouTube video. You get flashing procedure in SP flash tool and download link of stock rom in video description.
You need SP flash tool to flash your android.
Download from here
Sorry for saying this , but you should be aware that Rooting a device has its own ups and down/
You should have researched more and must have had a custom recovery incase things go awry.
Now that things have gone bad , the only option you have is flash a rom for your device using SP Flash Tool.
Google for your phone model and download firmware and flash the rom
If you have any trouble finding a rom or flashing it , please feel to contact me.
