Kernel panic upload mode when installing CM7 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

On Friday I downloaded and installed the leaked XXKP8 through Odin (with pit file) to try it out. Then, I installed UltraToxic ROM through (again through Odin) to get back to Gingerbread. Ever since then,every time I install CyanogenMod 7, I get a screen reading "Kernel Painc Upload Mode" and I have to flash an Odin rom as I can't even access recovery.
I have tried reinstalling the old bootloader and modem, wiped everything and started from stock KI4, tried various different ROMs and kernels to start from, but I have had zero luck. My phone refuses to boot CyanogenMod 7.
I would be extremely grateful if anyone could solve my problem.
Thanks in advance

I've read it before posting in your thread, but I'm still not quite sure what you get by removing the external SD card...
You should try it anyway , just to be sure you tried everything.
I may be very wrong...

I'm having the exact same issues! JJE's response is from my thread and it doesn't help! I am going to try this kernel cleaning script. Hope it works. I can only flash using Odin, any attempts to do anything with CWM fails. Same scenario as OP.
Running stock KI3 kernel with CF-root installed using odin. ran the cleaning script in recovery... tried to flash CM7 zip twice... still same thing, keep getting stuck rebooting. I just took my sdcard out. Going to try the process all over again.
edit: I give up.... CWM5+ seems to work fine... anythiing to do with CWM 4 just fails
I'm running the latest CM9 release the MrPhilio one. I got droidexplorer installed for transfering files to my phone. Guess I'll stick with this for now until an official release of cm9.

I'm not sure which thread is which right now , but did you try flashing XWKK5 firmware from intratech's thread( Frankenstein build, it works perfect, I'm using it ) then rooting it , the CF-root method for XWKK5 comes with CWM 5.0... You should try that , then after that try to flash CM7, should work. Just don't forget to wipe data/cache/dalvik cache/battery stats before flashing ( i do it every time just to be sure)... Please let me know if that worked for you, I'm eager to solve your problem XD
Edit : same goes to the OP , flashing CM7 directly from CM9 or stock KP* does'nt seem to work because of the old CWM version... i guess...

Did you manage to fix it? I have the same problem

i'm also experiencing the same problem. anyone have a solution?

This worked for me
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21136550&postcount=28
removed sd card, flashed KG3 with odin (had to do it twice for some reason), the flashed cfroot for kg3 and rebooted into recovery, wipe data/format/cache and flashed cm7 twice then flashed gapps.
I happened to have have a backup up my CM7 so after flasing cm7, i did an advance recovery and restored just system/data/cache (not boot!).
I then proceeded to install the XXKL1 modem with Odin (modem only).
worked great, got a 'standard' bootloader now, new modem and its all good.

Yep, this is how I fixed my problem. I didn't bother updating the thread because it was on the third page at the time. I don't generally check the SGS2 Q&A sections.

Try flashing N.E.A.K. or another kernel tar package in ODIN while you have your phone in download mode.
That should fix your CWM recovery.

ok step by step, i had checkrom on my phone and flashed the new criskelo rom on my phone 4.0.3 LPQ for testing it, and flashed it with cf root 5.4
but after testing i wanted to get back to checkrom and now i have this problem that i can't flash any other kernel! only CF-Root is working , with any other kernel i em ending at the "Triangle"..phone is not booting any more
Really, ICS and GB is going crazy. Flash stock, kernel, flash cf root kernel, then flash newest kernel to fix sd card issue, etc... Since ICS was updated on sgs2 everywhere just problem, not booting, not installing, etc. Really, really big pain.
I dunno man what could solve you problem. I'm gonna search in all threads to find some useful information, if I will, I will post here, should be somewhere answer. LOL, best of luck.

do you wipe cache and dalvik before you flash a different kernel? and maybe format system when you go into recovery might help...and next time make backups

I want to flash Resurrection Remix AOKP which includes siyah kernel, so if I just go ahead and flash the zip, it might give me a chance of fixing this?

Cant Flash XLPQ

Right so here is my thing acouple of days ago i tried to go from a rom based on XLPH to one Based on XLPQ. I did the four wipes however on startup it would go into Kernel Panic Mode. I could not access cwm but could get into dl mode so i flashed cf root XLPH and managed to get back to the original rom i started from. It seems that any XLPQ based rom results in the same outcome of Kernel Panic Mode even siyah.Ive tried to go back to stock to start again but the same thing keeps happening.However as a last resort i flashed an original ota based samsung Build i don't now get the Kernel Panic Mode message but a blank screen and it shuts down I've managed to get into dl mode and get back to my original rom any advice.

unfortunately.. i having same problem..tired of this..please someone help..
i think it maybe hardware i hope not
Been a few people on my forum with the same problem but I seemed to avoid it.
First I made a nandrord backup and passed it to my PC.Then formatted my internalSD(have all important stuff on external anyway)then passed it back to internalSD again with the new ROM.Formated the phone-System,Data,cache in Mounts and Storage and flashed the official ICS from SamMobile.Rooted booted to recovery and then flashed the ROM on a clean device.After that flashed the CF-PROPER kernel cos the CF-Root kernel has the apps to SD and Titanium restore problems.So far all running smooth.
thanks will try that how do i get a nandroid back up to my pc
guys can i install this new XXLPQ ics update manually??...i heard its for the european phones...im in Malaysia...hope it wont effect my carrier phone calls, sms ad 3G network ~~
how did you reformat through cwm and how did you flash the official ics from sammmobile just glad im not the only one with this problem thought it was my fault.

sorry should have put it better i just want to know whether her reformatted in cwm or any other way ie kies.
CWM only .

Sorry had to go to bed.It was late in the morning here.
1.have your nandroid and custom ROM on the internalSD.The wont be touched by a format.
2.Boot to recovery and go to Mounts and Storage and format System,Data;Cache
3.Go back and wipe battery stats.Go back and do a Factory reset.
4.Reboot your device.
It wont boot properly cos you have formatted the system so pull the battery,put it back in and boot into download mode.Now flash via Odin the Official LPQ firmware that you can download from SamMobile and root with chainfires CF kernel.Now flash your custom ROM.
Tryed find a full "odin-version" of a XLPQ, including bootloader?
it MUST include XLPQ bootloader for this to work.
I had Kernel panic when I needed go from Omega V4 to v5.
Odin image with same kernel as needed, root it,
then try install youre new rom.
Good luck man
Thanx guys will try later maybe the idea of messing with the bootloader scares me im gonna try cooza method first.

HELP! Need original firmware GB/ICS (unbrick)

Anyone know where I can get the multi-file old-style firmware so I can get this working again?

Here you got ICS ROMs & LS8.
That's for I9100, make sure you're packing the right model as well.
I managed to get it working again by VOLUP+Power+Menu and going into CWM and restoring from a backup.
But it is rather concerning that if I hadn't of had a backup I would be screwed right now, I use Odin and I was using the thread you posted above, however even after flashing those and even wiping user data, it still boot looped.

hummm.........
If you can flash a back up you should be able to flash anything else. I mean, there's nothing wrong with your device.
Are you sure kies is all closed before flashing via Odin?
Try Mobile Odin to flash a stock ROM.

Did you try follow the guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1108499
It outlines what you did, only it suggests flashing a stock ROM through Odin instead of restoring a backup. Data stored on the internal memory will be lost during process, but it seems you have no way of retrieving it anyway! Give it a go with the stock ROM's link that gastonw linked you.

Dude, your device was not "bricked" and it was of no concern. The problem was simply that you flashed a incompatible kernel.
To solve it all you needed to do was flash compatible kernel in download mode using ODIN and you would have then had correct cwm, root and rom would have booted no problem.

It's not even related because your system can mount and format partitions. Have you tried redownloading the file, reflash it with re-partition enabled and wipe data?

I downloaded iChaOS-TestBuild2iostheme rom and tried to flash it via cwm, it says succes but when i restar it will never boot.
i also wiped everything before rebooting.
I redownloaded Stock Rom from (this is the zaclimon post) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531850 and flash via odin and pit file. Then make wipes. then it shows all the error message u can see the image in my first post of this thread. It BOOTS into android but with all the information like if i never did something to the player. (all games, photos, apps and folders) but all apps and system apps when the system starts shows message "force close" to all apps and all system apps. (u cann see image in first page of this thread) i dont know what is happening to this player. its like it doesn't want to wipe nothing.
Its like freeze with all things since the day the player damaged.
Someone with some other ideas? am frustrated i dont understand.
well this is an international kernel not? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/59125319/STeVEs-3.0-EU.tar
it says EU for European. but that's the same thing not
also here would be the right pit file http://www.mediafire.com/?u4fsajrqsw3uk71

[Q] Some ROMs boot, others stuck at boot!

Hi,
My I9100G is now on CM10.1.3 with CM stock kernel, everything is working great, but whenever i try to flash a different ROM or kernel, i get stuck on the bootscreen!
Except for samsung stock ROM and CM which work as well.
I have tried the following:
1- Wipe everything(data, cache, dalvik cache, format system) and do fresh installs.
2- Flash JB bootloader.
3- Un-root and re-root.
4- Try different recovery (CWM, TWRP).
5- Nand backup and restore works fine.
6- I forgot a couple of things, probably.
I miss trying out new ROMs and kernels, help an addict get his juice :silly:
I'm using ROM and kernel CWM cleaning scripts and I hadn't had any bootloops after ROM flash. I highly recommend this. Google ''i9100 ROM wipe script''. I also use the kernel wipe script, from the same xda thread.

JB Bootloader? Not enough flash a kernel with root? However if he does not work try to put a ROM stocks and to send it in for support service.
I do hope you're flashing stuff meant for the I9100G, and not the I9100.
Still problem persists

Found a great thread :[CWM UTIL] Hawker's Wipe Scripts (S2 GT-i9100)

But thanks, that will help in the future, provided i solve the problem at hand

Service will cost a lot of money as Samsung's service in my country (EGYPT) are greedy ********* and also their service is not professional.
Besides, if i send it, what will i send it for? Stock ROM already works!

If you already changed the recovery, you've voided any warranty, Samsung won't do anything for you anymore.
You're on the dark side now

He can always flash stock firmware using Odin.
To OP: It's really bizzare. Using wipe scripts prepares the device for flashing any ROM. I'm assuming that no download errors occurred (MD5 check is ok), that the ROM is matching your phone's model and that you're using a proper recovery.
Flash a different kernel (cwm or twrp based) and flash the ROM with it.

I have sent my phone a couple of times for service before the warranty expired, reset binary counter and flashed stock ROM, no problem.
MD5 checksum fine, ROM matching phone model, recovery i have been using for a while.
Will try TWRP and report back, thanks
So i cleaned up the system and flashed the Blazing safe kernel and now it got kinda interesting...
After using the scripts to clean everything up, then i flashed the kernel again to double check i had recovery, i tried to flash the ROM i wanted which is Cyanfox, it gave me an error.
Updating bla bla bla....
.
.
.
This package is is for "i9100g,GT-I9100G" devices;
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/emmc/......'
Error flashing zip '/emmc/bla bla'
Updating partition details...
After that i tried the SLIM ROM 4.2.2, frankly i don't remember where i got it from as it was sitting there for some time.
Anyways it worked and that's weird...cyanfox was supposed to work as other users say it worked for them.
Also when Slim was flashed it had CWM, which i opened and tried to flash cyanfox with it...and it flashed without errors but still stuck at boot logo screen!!
What's the problem here?? :silly:
So, anyone?
Is this in the right section in the first place?
My phone is a GT-I9100G model.

Try asking here mate. :good:
Solved
Thanks, but i found the solution to my problem.
Actually i had multiple problems:
4.4 ROMs will flash but will not boot.
Some ROMs will not even flash giving error in CWM (status 6, status 7 ).
Regarding the first problem, i found a thread mentioning that Kitkat ROMs are not all supported by CWM (Sorry i can't seem to find it again :/ ), and that a particular CWM version 6.0.4 will solve that. Too lazy to search for and get, and came across another solution, where aidfarth released his version of a Kernel supporting 4.4 Kitkat, with TWRP instead of CWM which solved the status 7 error.
Further reading is for the other two error solutions.
So i went on and tried to flash that kernel, giving me the status 7 error in CWM, which brings me to the next error.
Regarding the second error, status 7 in CWM, it could be solved by manipulating a script in the ROM or zip in general that you want to flash, this link will demonstrate, it's what i followed.
So i followed, edited the ZIP file and whatnot, then i tried to flash it in CWM, then got the status 6 error.
This will require the same steps as how you solved the status 7, but it has to do with UNIX encoding, this link is what i followed.
Thanks all for replies.
