[Q] Cognition rom installation - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I've installed the latest Cognition Rom. Before that I had DlevRom.
When I reboot my device it still runs the DlevRom animation. How do I remove it?
Also, in the Cognition installation notes it says that it does not contain some of the Samsung apps like the Social hub and Game hub, but after reboot it is still there. Why? I did Data/Cache/Delvik wipe and still it is there. Is there any way to remove all old data?
Thanks

Recovery Mounts and storage formate system data cache and if you want sd card .
Boot to download mode install stock rom install root install custom rom .
That will be a 100% wiped phone if you format sd card .
jje

Stock Rom
Where do I find stock Rom?
Should I also re-install the kernel?

Moving to a new Rom
So is it recommend to install stock rom and kernel and only then move to a new and different Rom?

No the recommendations are to follow the instructions in that roms post .
You wanted to wipe stuff if you format system cache data sd card the phone is empty no firmware no os no nothing .
jje

Moving to new Rom
I get that but I wanted to get rid from all the DlevRom boot animations etc' and it looks like the only way to do that is by flashing to stock rom and then to the desired Rom.

Two types of custom rom WIPE and NO WIPE its as simple as that .
jje

Problem
OK, so I played a bit and then restored to stock rom and kernel.
After that installed a new kernel 2.3.4 CF and then installed Cognition. Now it is stuck on the first boot up screen and nothing happens...
Wiped everything and installed again - nothing...

You wait on custom rom boot up screen 5/10 mins .
I would install stock KH3 rom via Odin and let it boot .
Root rom with CFroot KH3
Boot
Copy Cognition rom to sd card
boot to recovery
Advanced wipe dalvik cache
return wipe cache
Install zip cognition from sd card and wait for it to boot .
jje

Hope it will work
Trying to do that. Strange, it is stuck on the Samsung Galaxy opening screen (the first one - white) and nothing happens...
Hope it will work

Very strange - Cognition problem
Well, did as suggested:
Installed stock kerenl KH3 + Stock rom, then installed CF like here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1237495
Then, updated cognition after a full wipe and again, it is stuck on the first boot screen...

I have installed Cognition as just described no problem wiped it and installed KI3 stock followed by a custom rom .
|You could try removing external SD card if you have one .
jje

Maybe there is a misunderstanding.
Should I install Ki3 ROM? I installed kh3...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium

This is what i did .
Format sd card .
Wipe data factory reset ,
via Odin install stock KH3 from stock rom post bot and set up phone /
via Odin root from CWM and root post with KH3 v4.1 CWM root .
reboot check phone is rooted .
Copy Cognition rom to sd card .
Boot to recovery advanced wipe dalvik cache return wipe cache
install zip chose zip install wait reboot wait .
Cognition is KH3 not KI rom.
jje

Thankd.
In the mean time I installed lighting ROM and it looks good. Which ROM do you think is the best?

[Q] CWM fail to update?

Hi there, I need your help and advice please.
Here’s my problem. My phone is the SGS2 running KI3 rooted with CF-root KI3 flashed the secure kernel and then flashed the zImage so I still have root CWM and to get rid of the yellow triangle. I have downloaded CM nightly 88 to my laptop and transferred it to my S2 via usb cable into the download folder.
Here’s where the problem comes into play when I run CF’s CWM and choose reboot into recovery I do a wipe/factory reset / wipe cache and update via sdcard, I pick the cm88 from the download folder and it starts to update and then stops. I reboot and it’s stuck on the Samsung S2 page (boot loop). I then have to get into the recovery and restore my phone to the previous state. Can someone help me I would like to try the CM’s custom rom but don’t know what I’m doing wrong? Thanks.
i have the exact same problem!

me2 only stock roms work for me =(
I think there was an issue with the version of CWM used on the CF-roots since it's been modified by CF and because it's an older version.
After you've rooted with CF, try flashing a kernel on there with a newer version of CWM on there (I used codeworkx's kernel from the Cyanogenmod wiki I've attached below with CWM 4.0.1.4).
Once this kernel is on there, then try flashing the CM7 ROM as per this thread. I prefer flashing from recovery myself, but it's your call.
Make sure you flash it twice in a row if you're having issues.
The problem, as stated above is that cf root kernel installs a modified version of CWM that won't work with CM7. Another thing is you have to flash a stock KH3 because KI3 has the new bootloader (unless you flashed KI3 with the old bootloaders). Then, you have to flash the codeworkx kernel so you get a compatible version of CWM. Once in CWM clear data factory reset + clear cache partition + clear dalvik cache (from advanced).
THIS IS IMPORTANT: Flash the ROM from sd card and when finish do not reboot device, just flash it again without wiping anything in between, just 2 consecutives "install from sd card". When this is done you can reboot the system and then enter again to CWM to flash the google apps .zip file that you can download from the CM7 thread.
Hope this helped. When I flashed CM7 i had exactly the same problem and went back to stock cause it was a pain in the ass to flash it fr the first time. But once you get in CM7, everything becomes great and easy, and you can update the nighlies directly from ROM manager without doing any wiping. You just can't use ROM manager when getting to CM7 for the first time.

DO NOT use cf-root to install CM7. It's stated by Codeworkx a lot of times in CM Q&A thread. Just flash his kernel to get cwm.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118693
Now you have the original cwm recovery (from Koush). Boot into recovery, Wipe data, cache, dalvik.
Install CM7 twice in a row without rebooting.
Then flash gapps (without rebooting) http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip.
Now reboot. Wait for a few mins since system has to build dalvik cache. And you're all good to go
Worried about yellow triangle? Get a usb jig.
Siyah kernel 2.0 supports CM7 and miui. So....have fun.....!!

What kernel are you using? Go into Download mode as jje said and flash a stock firmware, then flash CF root then flash away with custom roms.

Flash a stock kernel+rom with odin , flash a cf-root then use clockwordmod recovery ( enter CWM manager in apps drawer and boot to CWM )
-wipe data
-wipe cache
-install zip from internal sdcard
-DO NOT REBOOT ( at least if you want CyanogenMod )
-install zip from internal sdcard (again , due to a bug)
-reboot
report back here when you try it

This is for the international I9100:
Data/factory reset,wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system, data and cache in mounts and storage. flash cm7 twice in a row without rebooting and flash google apps.Reboot and done
Enable usb-debugging first before flashing and backup you current rom and apps.
Maybe you have a I9100G, all the roms don't work.

[Q] Unstable ICS ROMs (tried many...)

Hey guys!!!
New galaxy S2 owner. I have done some searching in these forums and the threads answered many of my questions. However, I still have some newbie questions that I found unanswered. Please excuse me if my questions have been answered before but I got tired of searching
Here is the deal:
Yesterday, I flashed a CF Root with Odin3. Then used CWM to flash a wanamlite firmware. The firmware was great but I didn't like that it still had TW. So I dl'ed another firmware to the internal SD card and flashed again using CWM. I then flashed a couple of other ROMS and I noticed that after the first wanamlite flash, the new ROMs were unstable with many error messages that some OS processes have stopped etc.
I got back home, flashed to stock with Odin3 and the phone got stuck at the second samsung logo. I followed some community steps (thanks XDA) like disabling all kies processes from TM, wiping data/cache, then boot in DL mode and flash the stock ROM using Odin3 which worked.
I then Flashed a CF Root again and used CWM to flash a Spike Pure ICS ROM v5 which was great but I get occasional error messages like 'gallery stopped' or some other error message when I try to set contact photos. It just lags, blackscreen then comes back with the 'Unfortunately, the process had stopped'.
My questions: is this because of the previously flashed firmware that this is happening or is it that those ICS ROMs have these issues commonly? Did anyone have this experience before? What do you advice before flashing to a new ROM going back to stock or going straight from the current? Doesn't Odin3 technically wipe everything back to stock?
WIPE WIPE WIPE.
Go into recovery. Data/factory reset.
Advanced, Wipe dalvic cache. Mounts and storage, format system. Its a standard procedure going from one OS to another OS. You can then either flash a firmware zip from recovery or an .tar file from Odin.
Then to be on the safe side factory reset once again.

Wich fw do you have?
Make a deep clean with odin an flash on the latest ics version (lp9 is a good one)..then flash (if you want) a custom rom..
My experience with custom roms: one of the best rom samsung based (ics 4.0.3) is the foxhound greyfox v2..if you want a pure ics rom flash the omega aokp rom (ics 4.0.4)..
Try then to change kernel..siyah is the best for both roms..
P.s. sorry for my bad english
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
After LP7 should be staple enough for daily use .However you are using custom roms and you should read carefully each roms thread before flashing .
You are probably suffering from flashing multiple roms and leaving bits behind as well = clean wipe .
jje.
Can someone give me a clear full wipe procedure? I always wiped data/factory rest/wiuped chaceh and dalvik... but what else? a step by step procedure would be helpful!!
I currently have Spike Pure ICS v 5.
What do you mean by Odin3 'deep clean'?

Read my last post..
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
so:
1. Recovery mode > format user data > wipe cache > clear dalvik > format system (from moutns and storage)
2. Download mode > flash stock ROM using odin 3
Did I get it right? Was there something i didn't wipe?
Before you flash a new rom, make sure you answer the requirements.Some ICS roms need to be flashed in specific way.
The way of doing a full wipe is you go in Clockwork mode, wipe data/factory reset, you wipe cache partition, then go to advanced wipe Dalvik and Battery stats, then go in mounts and storage ( i think ) and you wipe the cache from there, but nothing else in mounts and storage.If you wipe anything else there's a high percent of bricking your phone.If this doesnt help you, I doubt that anyone could give you any clearer instructions.
Good luck.
DONT FORMAT SYSTEM.
....................................
Clean Slate for those that balls up the firmware .Or need to return to service or decide if its hardware/firmware problem .
Backup data first if phone is working .
Boot CWM recovery
Mounts and Storage
Format cache data system sd card .
Remove battery
Boot to download mode
Open Odin
Install correct stock firmware .
Followed by root and custom rom if you so wish .

OK im confused now... do I format system directory in mounts and storage or no?

i always do personally.
I got tempted and formatted system/cache/data but now i cannot flash from my internal sd card.. I get errors and 'installation aborted' if i try to do it from CWM... does that mean formatting those 3 means Odin3 is the only way? Cus I'm not home and I don't have odin3 on me.... LOL!
OJ77 said:

Did you format sd card and totally wipe the lot = nothing on the phone .
Backup data first if phone is working .
Boot CWM recovery
Mounts and Storage
Format cache data system sd card .
At this point you have no OS on the phone nor kernel rooted nor CWM .
Hence
Remove battery
Boot to download mode
Open Odin
Install correct stock firmware .

I did a 'full wipe' by doing t his:
1. Boot into CWM: wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe battery stats, wipe system/data/cache from mounts.
2. Reboot into DL mode, flash stock ROM using Odin3.
3. Repeat step 1
4. flashed spike ICS v 7.3 using CWM. Stable so far.
Thank you!
imho: the most stable ics release is the stock official, but with some.battery issues, my suggestion: stay on gingerbread, find a custom kernel to suits your need,
GT-I9100, official 2.3.6, hardcore's Speedmod

I agree! I don't like ICS because is still unstable! My battery lasts very short with ICS and the phone overheats.
Moreover I hate the browser! I mean, The Galax S2 with GB still has the smoother browser of all the smartphones out there, and Samsung with ICS update messed it up! Now is laggy with micro stutters! Don't understand why!

You didn't need to go through all that trouble just because you didn't want TW (which I also hate, btw).
You could simply have installed another launcher (such as Go Launcher EX, ADW, etc) from Play Store and, since you were already rooted, uninstalled TW using Titanium Backup afterwards. It has to be in that sequence (install new then uninstall old).
this way you can have whatever ROM + kernel combination you like, and still use whatever launcher you prefer.

[Q] Problems Installing Roms

Hi I have Rooted my GS2 Gt-I9100 running 4.03,Using CF Root. Everything OK. I put the Zip File of Miui 2.6 on my SD Card went into CWM Recovery did all I was told and the ROM seemed to Install.,when Finished the Miui Logo came up and thats as far as it went.I then tried to use ODIN 1.85 but I could not get a .tar file out of the download. What am I doing wrong ????. Is the CF kernal not compatible with MiUI or CyanogenMod.. Sorry If I appear Stupid....
Using cwm format cache data system sdcard(not micro sd)
Now flash same miui using cwm.
First boot takes time.
Still issues, download the ROM again
Just go into cwm and wipe data, cache and dalvik. If this doesnt work , reinstall.
But usualy the firste boot takes some time ( can take up to10-15 min)

[Q] Can't flash any ROM via Clockworkmod - stuck at S logo after

Hi guys.
My phone is a international i9300
I've been searching for a problem like mine in the forum for three weeks now and I couldn't find a proper solution.
I just can't flash any rom via CWM anymore...
I can flash roms via ODIN, but when it comes to CWM, it gets stucked at Samsung logo after the install.
I tried:
Wipe cache / Dalvik / factory reset.
before the installation, after the installation, every combination possible.
Tried megawipe and no help.
Changed the kernel, Siyah, Googy, stock...
Changed versions of CWM, touch.
I have now the Phil'z 5.0.15.
I like very much the XXELK4 version from roalex with its MOD, for the call recording and full multiwindow support, but can't flash it anymore, nor any other custom or stock via CWM.
By now I can only have a full stock flashed via odin, or my Omega 46.1, wich I have a full backup.
Another solution could be find a .tar rooted and with the MODS flashable via Odin, but I really wanted to understand what's happening with my recovery.
Thank you all and congrats for the great work with the forum.
In cwm format..
Data
System
Cache
Then go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache
Then flash the rom.
Your cwm is upto date?

Sorry.
Forgot to include in the original post... I tried that too. Formatted everything
Got the 6.0.6.3
I also tried with the last Philz recovery.
And with previous versions of both too.
Have you tried to go bk to stock,root that firmware then install cwm then flash custom rom? Clean slate start.
Your problem may be a bad file download .

There can't be a so huge bug in philz recovery
Try install from internal sdcard, a simple 'Factory Reset before New Rom' no need to mega wipe anything.

Of course. And I tried with different versions of Philz' and also CWM. It can't be a bug in recovery.
Re-downloaded the revolution 29.0 and the Roalex XXELK4 rooted, copyed directly to internal and flashed... Same problem. Stuck at Samsung logo in boot. I'm begining to think my phone is screwed up. But this is so strange. I can restore my backup with no problems, and also can flash with Odin.
Is there a way to flash a .ZIP ROM in Odin?
Does not make any sense .
What model phone do you have ???
What model firmware are you flashing .
What about basic stock custom roms flashed via CWM ??
Have you booted to Philz recovery mounts and storage format sd card cache system and data then flash rom ??
Agree it is strange Deviating a little from your problem but have you tried flashing anything with TWRP recovery see if the problem persists with that.

I know it doesn't. That's why I'm going crazy.
I uploaded the screenshots with my system specs.
The model is correct, international i9300. Tried to download from the site and also directly from rommanager.
The firmwares I'm trying to flash are stock, but rooted by Roalex. I couldn't find a pure stock .zip for testing with CWM. The firmware I'm using is UBEMH5 from sammobile, wich I flashed via Odin.
Yes... Tried and formatted everything, several times, mounted, unmounted, every possible order...
Almost giving up. :crying:

I never used TWRP. Can I flash the same ROM file .zip with it or it requires it's own rom file type?
I'm gonna be out of the country for two days. When I come back I'll give it a try.

It's been a while since i used it last time was when I had a S2 and I used it all the time:good: You can flash any rom with it that cwm can flash (as far as I know) but it had a little trouble restoring backups made with cwm but I think that got fixed.But you can make backups and loads of other things with it I recommend people to try it at least once This won't fix your cwm problem but would be interesting to see if it works
If twrp doesn't work on stock Flash googy Max dualboot kernel and keep stock as primary rom and custom as second rom. Then you have best of both world's :thumbup: also take the pic down with your emei showing :banghead: never ever show this!
What i would do in this situation is .
In recovery format cache system sd card preload .
Flash stock rom via Odin.
Check phone works ok .
Then root / flash philz recovery .
Put custom rom on sd card boot to recovery factory reset .
Then install custom rom watching setup to spot a failure point .
Wait for rom to load 10 mins fails then remove batter replace and factory reset .
Problem solved
Hi folks.
Think I figured out what's going on.
Via TWRP it says the files were corrupted, although the file sizes were identical.
I MD5 checked the files in my computer and they're ok, but when checked already inside my phone or SD they're not.
Instead of copying the files via USB cable I removed the SD card and inserted directly in my laptop slot and copyed the files. MD5 checked and they're ok...
After I tryed again copy via USB and the files were corrupted again.
I think my desktop USB or maybe the Samsung drivers are doing that.
Well, problem solved. I hope this helps other people in future problems.
Thank you all for your help and support. Keep on with the great work.
Mark solved then for other users .
