For what u want to use ROM Manager???I don't think, that Rom Manager supports Siyah!!!
When u flashed Siyah, u must have got an app named "cwm".
Use that, it has all functions of Rom Manager.

And CM9 doesn't support Siyah. Not sure it would even boot.
His recovery is from CM9's included kernel, and it's recovery 5.5.

I have just downloaded the recoveru from rom managet. It asked if i had galaxy s2

exactely when i was with cm7 or oxygen rom 2.3 or with other stock roms i could us rom manager and install the i9100 recovery without problems....
also today i saw in cm9 post that the rom is downlodable via rom manager.... but if rom manager cant install the recovery it doesnt work.

I have the same problem on CM9. I did write to the developer of ROM Manager but have not had a reply.

please post here if u get answers!

Rom Manager is well known for causing problems with SGS2. Use it @ your peril. Much "safer" to boot into CW Recovery & do all one's flashing/backup/recovery/etc.

Then if someone uploads the downloded one somewhere so everybody takes it and put it in cwm folder in internal sd

Download chainfires cwm manager it gives you similar options depending on your kernel.

[Q] Rom Manager Premium

I purchased Rom Manager Premium so I can install Enyo's latest MIUI rom. The problem is, no ROMs are showing up under the "premium roms" tab. Do I need to add locations to ROM manager somehow? I thought they should just show up after I upgraded....
While donating to the developers is never a bad idea, Enyos Miui rom is free to download? 10.14 is working great for me, but I believe he is getting ready to upload another version that has.a few minor fixes in it. (Although I haven't noticed any problems here.)
Thanks for the response. The link to his rom is not working on his developer page. He said it's available in ROM manager, but I only see 4-5 ROMs in there and none of them are Enyo roms...

My guess is that you don't have your phone setup properly in rom mananger. Your phone is probably being recognized as I9000.
You could fix this, or better yet, just install your roms directly through recovery. Be sure to use the correct recovery for the rom you are installing.

Install this via odin: Odin/Heimdall flashable recovery: hxxp://dl.dropbox.com/u/14764513/cwm...r_cm7-ODIN.tar
Open rom manager, select use current recovery.
Pick Fascinate (MTD). Then pick ClockwordMod 3.x
Edit: added download, since link wont help you unless you google it.

Yes this is almost exactly what I did to get it to work. You have to touch flash clockworkrecovery and set up your phone to use your version of clockwork ...once I set it up.it.immediately shows the Roms

Thanks for the help. I found that all I had to do was open Rom Manager App and flash CWM to choose my phone. From there it was all the same. No need to Odin or anything else.

This was the first time I have ever used Rom Manager to do anything with a ROM. Could not find the last MIUI build anywhere but there. I prefer to boot into recovery and install that way. Maybe cause there is less chance for error. I just used Rom Manager to download the Rom and still installed the old way after I changed out the ringtones and the mms.apk.

[Q] Flashing new Rom questions

Looking to install ICS instead of Cm7.
Been told I need to use Cwm 5 - I am using cwm 4 so does it particularly matter? If so how do I upgrade.
And as I am running Cm7, is there anything else I need to do to flash the ICSunday ROM? - Searched and it seems I should be fine, but thought it best to chech.

if you are talking about ICS by jusada then its fine to flash as cm9 is not daily usable yet...
about cwm5 you have to download its package from related thread and flash it through current cwm4 as normal zip you flash it will be upgraded..
Yes looking at the Rom by Jusada.
Where can I find the download link for CWM 5? I have searched but I cant seem to find it. Am I not able to just use CWM 4?

CWM icon not in cyanogenmod 9

Hey guys, about a week ago i rooted my Sgs 2 i9100, as you do, and it installed super user and cwm on it. Later on i flashed Cyanogenmod 9 on to it, so far so good, but when i go to the app drawer theres no cwm icon in there, i would really like to know how to get it on here as this app is really handy when it comes to doing backups and installing apk's.
Thanks.

CWM app only works perfectly well with CF-ROOT kernel. So in CM9, it's users.
BTW, if you are flashing CM9, you must also know how to do backup in recovery, or install apk

Oh yeah, so i would have to flash a CF-ROOT kernel on my phone?
I have flashed CM9 and have a backup already before i flashed it and i know how to install apk files.

Do try that, your phone will not boot, CF root kernel is for Samsung Roms.
Restore CWM app if you have the backup

hey ma8, in dual boot only the kernel is shared b/w the roms
the apps have to be installed individually for each roms

yes u can keep ur current stock firmware(has to be ICS) as ur primary rom along with Siyah kernel version which supports dual boot (Ex v4.1.5 of siyah) and flash any Custom rom of ur Choice which has to be ICS or JB (do not ask which one though since its against XDA rules!) as ur Secondary rom and see
for backing up of memo u can try some apps from stores and see

Siyah 4.1.5 is not compatible with the latest CM10 (JB Mali version) and all JB ROMs based on this build. Therefore Siyah cannot boot it.

I had to do that bro...coz at mid night i was stuck and there was no response on this post.
Anyway, i had downloaded the 6th october build of CM10 from http://www.get.cm/?device=i9100
Like i got to know, the latest build might not be compatible. So, now I am downloading the 1st october build (thats the oldest nightly build available dats y)
Should that be fine ?
It might be. But I'm not a 100% positive. You could try n if you're not able to boot, then download another one of the custom ROMs built with a cm10 base available in the development section for now.until siyah is updated to include the new code.
Alternative is to flash the cm10 ROM and stick with the cm kernel for now.

It's just the cwm app saying that, boot into cwm with three button combo and all is still there, you can find an updated recovery but they use a new method of backing up that I don't personally like so I stay with the old,I never use the app to boot into recovery anyway, so in summary, nothing to worry about
