Im currently running Turkbey hellraised on my Sgh-I777. I wanted to try this rom out, but when i did the usual steps for hellraising and rebooted i got stuck on the boot screen, not a boot loop but the actual start up screen that reads "Samsung Galaxy s2 Gt -I9100".

hellraiser package is designed for GB roms. That is an 4.0 base and we do not have a fully functional kernel for our phone yet.

I feel your pain too I want to use ics so Bad. Just so ya know I've flashed the ics for the i9100 on our phone and it doesn't brick it or anything just the back and search buttons don't work.

Be careful - some of the ICS installs have a PIT file and are flashed in Odin.
DO NOT FLASH THESE.
As of today, the ONLY reason to EVER flash the I777 using a PIT file is to recover from a situation where you screwed it up by flashing something with a PIT file.
Nothing good can come out of flashing using a PIT file on the I777 at this point, nothing! So DO NOT FLASH anything that includes one!
Things might change when we get official ICS, but right now - DON'T DO IT.
I flashed the first i9100 leak using odin on my i777, and it workt just fine, only played with it for like 5min since ril is busted =/, tho he can flash i9100 cm9 just fine(after taking out the ro.productdevice=i9100 string out of the updater-script) and play with ics a bit, tho like we all know no mic on calls/no back/search keys(tho it can be fixed with gb /usr and a kernel edit) =/

I think, once we start getting ICS for the i777, the device will have to be repartitioned. In HC (and ICS), /data and /sdcard (/mnt/sdcard) are no longer seperate partitions. If I understand ODIN properly (and I don't), that would imply a PIT file, correct?

Hellraiser. Same as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335377 but for ICS. Same installation instructions, except this is for ICS Touchwiz firmwares instead of Gingerbread.
Known issues:
May break root on some firmwares. Flash ChainsDD's Superuser or Chainfire's SuperSU CWM packages in CWM to fix. To find them, Google it. Will add links later. tired now...
Doesn't change build.prop to represent I777, will cause script assert problems with CM9. I'll fix this later in the week after I've caught up on sleep.
Doesn't change wifi region codes (see Sh1tROM tutorial) for 5 GHz wifi support yet.
Sometimes region settings don't take hold on the first boot, and you need to reboot to see ringtones and proper keyboard
Tested with Foxhound someversionican't remember... Others have used other I9100 ICS firmwares.
Won't work with anything based on I9100 leaks such as XXLPJ - I believe Resurrection was in this category last week.
Having trouble with uploading large files, so:
Take the files at https://github.com/Entropy512/hellraiser_i777/tree/ics, put em' in a ZIP, and flash. I'll attach a ZIP later. I need to contact the XDA admins about some upload issues.

Locking the thread for now as it needs major cleanup and I'm out of time. Discuss in Generla or Q&A, i'll clean this up and unlock when I catch up on sleep.

Hi Entropy512. I just hellraise FOXHOUND PsychoMantis from here and works really good, however i can't get the internet working (no data, only wifi). Should i try another modem? wich one?
Entropy you said that the package won't work on anything like xxlpj... crysis' from is based on xxlp7, so is that out of the question? Because I love that rom,, but bricked my phone hell raising a bad rom last time, and don't want to make another mistake. Thanks man!

XXLP7 is ancient, it will not work on XXLP7. It will not work on any XX build below LPQ.
If you typoed that and meant XWLP7, it should work.
You need to be VERY careful to be accurate about region codes when talking about I9100 ICS, since they replaced the month code with "P" and how far along the build code is depends on the region. XX is way up there (past Q) and Q is the first one that could be Hellraised, XW is only at 7 and all known XW region builds should be fine.

Hellraised Crysis rom worked fine for me.
How are you supposed to use this...I have this as .zip and F1's Galaxy Nexus stock ROM for Galaxy S II on my AT&T Galaxy S II. When I install F1's Galaxy Nexus stock ROM, it ends because it recognizes my device isn't an OG Galaxy S II.
Am I supposed to merge the Hellraiser files with the ROM files and zip them up?
If you download and flash a stock ROM such as XWLP7 and hellraise, will HDMI work? Read on previous forum that HDMI out does not work on custom ROMs.
Since this is a stock ROM from Sammi this should work. Any experience with this?

You need to remove the script asserts from the updater-script of whatever you're trying to flash. That's probably the first firmware other than CM9 I've heard of that did any script assert checking.

HDMI should work - HDMI works fine on custom firmwares, it just doesn't work right now with AOSP-based firmwares.
Will this work with xwlpf? Wanted to HR the wanam rom. Just wanna be sure
Edit: never mind, already tried it and it works just fine.
Can you post the hellraiser zip please Felix? or did you use flashoholics tool.

I just bought a used galaxy s2 I love the phone already. I had the samsung infuse before, and I loved the cm7 nightly builds on that phone, but had to upgrade You all know how that is haha.... I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1505172 to root and then had to unlock seeing as I am on rogers.... First thing I have to say is that every time I boot up I see the triangle with the ! in it so I might have done the wrong one? It said before i had the i9000m btw. And I installed CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG2-v4.1-CWM4 as the kernel
Another thing I might as is that when I tried to open odin 1.85, it would say Odin.ini with a bunch of sqaures, i press ok and it closes.... So i just used 1.83.
Last thing is who do I go into cwm recovery, and I want to go on a cyanogen mod 7 or 9.... Should I try cm9? And how would I do that?
THANKS!
Hope everyone here is more helpful than on the infuse sometimes
the yellow triangle is always there when you boot it cause you rooted it.. but gladly, you can remove it with a usb jig (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udzMQ_dsci4) or without usb jig (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOXNf_kH-iA)
I highly suggest skipping CM9 and giving Resurrection Remix a try. Also learn to live with the yellow triangle and forget the CF kernels. I use Siyah kernel and there are other alternatives just as good.
I've tried almost every rom and kernal for S2 and I truly believe RR and Siyah is the best performing combo of them all.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
Thanks I will trythat now, but how do I do that? I sent you a message
If you don't have a usb jig to reset the flash counter and remove the triangle on boot up try chainfire's TriangleAway app either found on the play store(paid) or in his thread here on xda(free). Make sure you are running an ICS rom.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Sorry I meant how do I do the siyah and rr thing but thanks
I received your message. All the info you will need is right here on XDA already. When you rooted your phone you probably installed CWM recovery (press home, volume up and power buttons to boot into it). Assuming you have that you can just follow the steps in the RR thread to install. It already comes with Siyah Kernel so you can simply flash the latest version to keep it updated. I used odin to flash a modem firmware for Canadian networks but that's optional since the stock base band in rr worked fine.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
So that means all I do is flash rr from cwm and clear that bs stuff and I'm good to go?
Sent from my GT-I9100M using xda premium
Its simple as that Just follow the extended steps in the faq of the rr thread and remember to make backups in cwm in case you make mistakes and need to try again.

if u need to do a factory reset/full wipe in the process of intalling the new rom
all apps and data will be deleted
so its convenient to make backup important things like your apps, sms, or call log
not compusory though
backup apps using Titanium backup,there are free and paid version

I have an ATT I777 on the UCKK6 base. Id like to root it. Its obviously still running GB and that base I listed. I know they sometime lock stuff down further with different update. So the question is, would there be any issue with updating the phone to ICS through KIES and then rooting? Or should I root it before? If I root it before will I lose root if I try to update it then, I would think so at a minimum.
does anyone know the most current base, or what it would be that I came out with after the KIES update?

No. This phone is definitely *not* unbrickable if, by unbrickable you mean not capable of being bricked. If you mean can it be brought back from a brick, then it depends on the type of brick we're talking. If you're talking the hard brick caused by the eMMC bug, then no. You won't be bringing it back from the dead.
If you have not already, I would advise reading the post at the following link, then reading the thread related to the mentioned app:

No need really, I'm so used to running ASOP like ROMS on my other phones I probably wouldn't like it anyway. I was mostly just curious as it seems that with the base I'm currently on rooting is a little more involved. I was also wondering if Sammy had maybe patched something in the new build.

Here is what I would do if I were you. When I rooted mine I was on KH7 so I used DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit then installed Mobile Odin to flash Entropy512's DD 3-7 GB kernel to get CWM then flashed a custom ICS ROM. I went back to look over creepys guide "How to Flash Custom Binaries Without Ever Incrementing the Flash Counter" I have read it 100 times I just want to make I got you the best info I could.... Give a BIG shout out to creepyncrawly for putting that guide out!!! Make sure you read that guide lots of great info... I did see a KK6 stock rooted package on here 1a. just read up see what is best then just follow the steps..... If you have any more questions just post them in this thread.
1. If you flash the 2c. "Odin3 One-Click Downloader Stock I-777 UCKH7 with Root no BL" link

1a. Kernel + cache + rooted UCKK6 system package
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432
2. Then install Mobile Odin link (You will need this to flash Entropy512 GB kernel just extract the zImage from the zip file and load it in the kernel slot in Mobile Odin)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899
3. Then flash Entropy512 GB kernel to get CWM link

There is no stock UCKK6 (2.3.6) but you can download and flash a Stock plus root version of UCKK6. See Entropy512's thread which is a sticky in the development forum.
...Or you can flash fully stock UCKH7 (2.3.4). See the link in my signature for the return to the store guide.

You can upgrade to the stock 2.3.6 by downloading the stock 2.3.4 firmware from the download repository here in our forums, then after you are booted into the operating system, go to settings, scroll all the way to the bottom to software update, and it will download and install 2.3.6. I wouldn't suggest it , just because I don't like it or think it runs well, but try it out. Good luck, happy flashing.

I'm gonna guess they booted into download mode and checked the flash counter...

Why would they not take it back?? You never flashed any custom ROMS from here right? All you did was flash the AT&T ICS update via kies and it gave you problems right? Knowing all that = true I will do all I can to help you (the only problem is I don't know anything) If you don't respond back in about an hour it's 6:30am now on the West coast I have to roll out for awhile. There are some cool people here that will help you. Just make sure you cross reference EVERYTHING...... Do all the reading you can, nobody can keep your phone safe but YOU. Here is a link to one of the best guides on here via the man Creepy <~~~ Koolest dude much respect!

1. What is the status of the phone now? (can it boot recovery or go in to download mode)
I've got the day off and nothings really going on so I'm looking to root my SGS III. Still in the preparation phase but I'm basically looking to find the quickest, easiest way to obtain root.
What I've come across is the tool kit and CF-Root methods of doing this. Basically what's the difference between these? I'm also reading about flash counter? And triangle away gets rid of it? I'm not too sure on that really..
Ideally I think I'd prefer using Odin but I cant seem to extract the CF-Root file to get the .Tar PDA file. This is why I've stopped and decided to post before proceeding to **** it all up, as I once did with my SGS...
Any help would be appreciated thanks all
..... Should also say I'm running stock with the latest OTA update if that's any worth
I did it via CF-Root and Odin. Quick and easy

The issue I'm having with that is I cant seem to get the .tar file when I extract the files. I only seem to get the .img files, what extraction program do you use may I ask?

Used WinZip here

As it turns out using 7 zip was messing my extraction up so got rid of that and job done got the .tar file I needed, literally took 10 seconds..
Cf-root because I didn't want insecure boot image thing. Also like SuperSU
Another quick one, any one have recommended roms, I've just installed JB on my S1 and it looks good, but do I install it on my S3? Or pick something else?

Can't really comment on "best"
But I've had good experience with AHD, WanamLite (2.0) and Omega. All with stock kernels. But Siyaah 1.4 is a good kernel to start with if you want a custom kernel.
Currently my daily driver is Faryaab's AOSP JB Build 3. Loving it!
Sorry, poorly phrased.. should have said, what rom do you use and why?
I confess at the moment I have gone back to a stock de-odexed Rom just to see what Samsung is like after 2 years of being on aosp/cm9 roms, just running siyah kernel over it and removed a bit of bloat.....quite enjoying it

I have done the exact same thing as of this morning!
I enjoyed my journey through cm9/10 and aosp JB but I have to say I'm liking the latest Sammy FW, its a lot smoother than it was when I left it to flash CM9 back around when I got the phone.
So ya, I'm gone back to the darkside, not-as-crap-as-before-wiz.

It's quite nice having everything working as it should for once....and can't really finds any faults so far, just a matter of nailing all the bloat to the wall and all seems good
Cf-root - odin , use winrar
