Sometimes it is necessary to flash it twice, meaning without reboot... Just stay in recovery and repeat the procedure (second time without /system wipe)

i've tried that as well... nothing seems to work! Thanks anyway
You're 100% sure it's the GT-I9100/GT-I9100T? If it's anything other, that could explain it?
If you checked that you really have the right phone, install CM7 like always and right after it before you reboot the device, install siyahkernel. After it I guess it should work fine.

This, but if you're coming from stock, flash CyanogenMod twice (right after you install in CWM, repeat those same steps of wiping and flashing again).

I am a bout to make a noob question: Isn't the siyah kernel for sammy roms? It's just that I come from the galaxy s and there we had diferent kernels for CM7 and sammybased roms. But in the gs2 case some kernels work on both?

in short, CM7 is based off Gingerbread and CM9 is based off ICS. If you want ICS, flash CM9 or one of the other roms in the dev section(s).

You need to read around a LOT more.
First off, don't use ROM Manager on a Galaxy S2.
Second, no, there is no version of 4.0.3 for CM7 because cm7 itself is 2.3.7. What you want is CyanogenMod 9.
EDIT: Ninja'd! That took me much longer to type than I thought it did. :S
Has anyone mentioned to you that you need cm9 for ics?
Oh there it is.

You can use TB to backup apps and data. Just remember when you're restoring apps on your new rom, DO NOT restore system apps/data. It will royally screw things up. The best course of action would be to manually select which games/apps to restore with data. The rest of your apps you should just redownload from the Play Store.
As for ROM Manager, it can just mess things up on this phone. You don't need it though...you can do everything you need to do with CWM Recovery or Mobile Odin.

@matt,
I thought ROM Manager still works perfectly for any CyanogenMod ROM, CM7 or CM9. It's just highly recommended NOT to use with any other ROM that not-CM.
@OP, I strongly suggest you spend much more time reading and make sure you understand the whole process of making the CM9 on your device. In fact, it will save you more time than just keep flashing it, bricking it and hunting for help.

For cm7 it was okay for downloading but not flashing as i understood it but cm9 can make full use of it. Correct me if I'm wrong anyone.

If you already have a kernel with ClockworkMod, you don't need to worry about flashing one before flashing CM9.
Here is what you need to do:
1. Nandroid backup.
2. Download latest CM9 and GAPPS
3. Do a full wipe in ClockworkMod
4. Flash CM9 in ClockworkMod
5. Flash GAPPS in ClockworkMod

Hi all,
Firstly thanks to all the devs and senior members who ported CM10 mini, and also helped me with all the questions i had. I didnt necessarily have to ask these questions , coz the related threads worked like an FAQ and troubleshooting guide for me.
But now im stuck at a point where i need to ask. After trying CMX mini, though i loved it, i feel i prefer a speedy snappy phone rather than a fully loaded ergo slow phone. So i decided to roll back to GingerDX rom.
The issue im facing is that since ive flashed nAa's JB kernel, i wanna re-flash the nAa GB kernel ( or zombie panic etc). Once i flash any of the older GB kernels ( ive tried a few) the phone gets stuck at the boot screen. I just cannot go into recovery to do a wipe and flash the GingerDX rom.
So my questions are:
Is there any known work around.?
Do i need to roll back to a gb kernel to run Ginger DX or can i stay on JB kernel. Im guessing it shud be GB kernel for a GB rom, but cant find any literature online.
Do i need to do a data wipe before i switch kernels?
Pls help.
Thaks in advance.

yes, do data-wipes, or maybe format the partitions before you flash the gb kernel. GB roms won't work on the JB kernel.

Dear reader,
I've currently been using Cyanomod for 2.3.7 Gingerbread.
My phone is rooted and everything (which took a little while )
Everything is running perfectly fine, but i would like to update my phone to android 4.0+ (whatever the lastest compatible version might be)
How should i go about this?
Do i basically uninstall everything and start from scratch or is there an easy method to quickly update my phone to android 4.
Kind Regards and Thank you for your time!
I believe the answer us first to backup your apps with titanium backup if you need them. Then go to recovery and backup your current Rom. (always be sure to do this). from recovery wipe factory reset and dalvik cache. Then install your new Rom from zip.
You cannot install an android 4.0 + over another version. Always backup and wipe.

Rom's are pre rooted (expect stock, stock BASED roms ARE pre-rooted), once you've installed the rom through cwm, it will be rooted and ready.

If your bootloader is unlocked, you can easily flash a custom kernel (Based on ics, so it'll be compatible with ics rom) And boot into recovery, and flash a custom rom based on ics.
One last question, since i'm having trouble finding compatible roms.
Which one would any of you, recommend for me to use ?
I have a ST18i and i'd like the lastest compatible rom.
Thanks so much for the fast reponses and ofcourse the help.

Since you're using CyanogenMod 7 I would recommend you to use CyanogenMod 9.1 i.e. FXP 138 is the best in my experience.

If your finding trouble with compatible roms are you saying your getting bootloops when trying them?, because a different Android Version requires a different kernel, So if you haven't or forget to flash the kernel recommended or provided then that would possibly be where your compatibility issues lye as you will get bootloops if you don't and you are changing version. As Mikii suggested earlier.

The fastest way to flash a kernel is to use the program called flashtool, click on the lightening bolt, select Fastboot mode, then select kernel to flash find the kernel you want to flash and it should be done within literally 2 seconds. once Flashtool gives you the all clear, disconnect your phone from usb, restart phone, and there you go, the old kernel will be overwritten, and so will that kernel's cwm version, with the one from the new kernel.

Hey,
Everything is installed and running, however i am wondering about just one thing.
Whenever i reboot my phone i get, right after imputting my sim code, a Unlock Network SIM message.
What is this and how can i solve it?
Regards,
(oops just realized i made a double post, apologies!)
I have flashed paranoidandroid 3.15 on my galaxy s3 a couple weeks ago, aside the occasional screen that win't turn on I haven't had any problem, but I set my mind on flashing a new kernel in order to be able to change thez governor. I tried to flash air kernel on, I did exactly what I was told: Boot into recovery, clear cache/delvik, installed kernel from sd card, and rebooted. But after the phone being rebooted, I still had the stock kernel.
My question is, why did this happen, and how do I fix it?
All help is appreciated

Well, I don't really know either of them, I don't mind stock, but I want to change things, sometimes it just isn't up for the task, or uses up battery when I would rather it didn't, without even knowing what they do, and looking around, I found the perseus kernel, I would like some opinions on the kernel, I would be very grateful if you told me if it fits me, if it's compatible with ParanoidAndroid, and finally if you have a better suggestion for a kernel.

AllianceROM_I9100_XWLSS_V8, look good but thought of trying the aokp i9100 jb-mr1 milestone-1, when trying to swap I made the mistake of doing a factory reset to find out that I could not access the roms on my sdcard.
so I then installed (I9100_CODE_I9100XXLP2_CL57619_REV02_user_low_ship.tar) it all worked as it went to stock. I rooted the phone again, tried installing the AllianceRom, but it didnt want to load, tried the Aokp again it did work, but then once the screen turns off it wont respond...
tried super nexus, did not want to work. tried updating CMW, it doesnt want to... Tried Jellybam, did not load...
So I tried and reloaded RR JB V 3.1.3 as I already have and it works, it is the only rom that works successfully, But if I try to go on to CMW, it doesnt work anymore, and it seems that once I try to use CMW it makes the rom unstable... So it seems that I can only use one Rom at the moment. Clearly I must of done something wrong at some point but I dont know what. I dont even know what to search for to fix it.
I tried different tools to see if they would help and no luck, such as, GS2ROMNuke, Romreset and Romwipe, Darkside cache and superwipe.
I hope someone can help me out in working out what I did wrong or what is happening.
Thank you so much for your time and help.
Bump, Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks for letting me know... Will keep that in mind next time.
Try kernel nuke then flash another kernel say siyah as its got cwm. Should be good then mate. Then install alliance rom. Also when you installed and booted for first time on these roms did you try wipe cache and dalv cache fix Permission ??

Thanks for the tip... I did try however I dont have access to cwm anymore once I install RR.
The only way I can get CWM to work again, is installing speedmod-kernel-s2-k2-21- through Odin but then the rom doesnt work anymore.
I tried the kernel nuke, I have tried installing siyah kernel with RR, but no luck it doesnt go into cmw. keep getting a message Kernel Panic...
anymore suggestions?
Could I have done something on the mounts? I dont know, but I cant think of what is going on.
Could it be that my phone has emmc brick?
I came across two apps
Got Brickbug?
Verdict
Danger! This eMMC chip is known to have the brick bug!
and
eMMC check
Brick Bug?
Yes. Insane chip....
Could someone please give me an indication what this means for me? Thanks

One final question, why is it that the RR Rom is the only one to work rather well? (CMW does not work once the rom is intalled)
Thanks heaps!

Yes, but you don't need to worry (as long as you're not on 4.0.4), and that's that.
