Hi Guys
I flashed my phone with ICS f/w Lightening ROM but I didn't like it because of FCs and higher batter consumption so I decided to come back to CHeckROM v6 and Phenomenol Kernel.
I did a data wipe, partition wipe, dalvik cache wipe before flashing CheckROM over Lightening ICS ROM and again deleted dalvik cache after installing Phenomenol Kernel.
Now I don't have root. I'm unable to use Applications like Root Call Blocker, Root Explorer and Voltage Control
I tried flashing my phone with different Kernels like N.E.A.K , RedPill etc but didn't get root back. What could be the issue ?

Flash chainfire kernel in original development thread using odin.
Thanks, that's what I'm trying right now.
I have downloaded concerned firmware from his thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14733439&postcount=534 and flashing as I write. I'll report back
"I did a data wipe, partition wipe, dalvik cache wipe before flashing CheckROM on Lightening ICS and again deleted dalvik cache after installing Phenomenol Kernel. "
sentance is not clear, are you still on ICS and flashed kenrel on that, or you flashed the Phenomenol, N.E.A.K , RedPill, etc after flashing checkrom ??
EDIT : if you are on Checkrom V6 and you lost root then just unzip this file to get TAR file and flash from ODIN http://download.chainfire.eu/144/CF-Root/SGS2/CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXA_LA4-v5.0-CWM5.zip you will gain the root
Now on CHeckROM. I was explaining what all I did before returning to GB ROM from ICS ROM

Thanks my friend. I download the exact same file but getting some error flashing this Kernel from CWM. I also extracted the .tar file and tried via ODIN but ODIN doesn't detect my phone in DOwnload mode
Please note that I'm able to connect my phone to Laptop in normal mode i.e to transfer files.

have you installed kies first, if not install latest keis
then close the keis and try
Thanks a lot bud. After installing Kies, I was able to use ODIN and flash the tar file. Got root back and not flashed my favorite Kernel over it. Root is retained. Thanks again

It's my pleasure,
you can use Kitchen from Checkrom to download your favorirte kernels and flash....
if falshing directly not working from Kitchen you can now manually do it from CWM...
get into the checkrom thread and explore....everything is discussed there....
Yeah, I know that but since I lost root, KichenROM was not able to automatically boot in CWM and flash those downloaded file, I had to manually flash them.

Did my frist flash and now everything is messed up (JL2 seeARMS) - for the belli9000m
basically I can get into my phone - but everything is black (i can't see anything other than the status scren) and the home/back button doesn't work - can't see nothing else
I did a factory reset, wipe, cache, etc. everything - and reinstalled the ROM via CWM yet still nothing works
I desperately need help
Install the correct Bell rom via Odin, not CWM. That should fix it.
you mean to start all over kinda thing ? like download the correct Bell JL2 rom (the official one) and use ODIN to install it ?
I still don't understand why everything is blank - like i can pull down status bar and select voicemal to make a call, receive txts even, but nothing else is there - nothing
how does this even happen
Well it's weird, I'll give you that, but your phone is far from "DEAD". Probably some files are failing to load, or were not included in that ROM that you flashed. Flashing the official one will fix it.

ok last question - once I find / dl the original firmware from bell/samsung (JL2) - and I go into download mode and use ODIN - WHAT BOXES DO I TICK/CHECK - because I've only used odin to flash a kernal (and just used pda) I can assume it's not the same as I'll need the original kernal correct ?
do I tick all the boxes? any tutorials on this I'm lost.
also, how big are these files - i am at work behind a firewall so I can't dl the original firm ware from
http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i9000.htm
but I need the JL2
if anyone wants to d/l it and email it to me it would be awesome
[email protected]
The files are big (~160MB), I don't think they will fit in your gmail
Here's the download link from samfirmware.com for I9000UGJL2
http://www.multiupload.com/6GRS1OWRJW (password is samfirmware.com)
You just select the .tar file in Odin in the PDA field, don't tick anything else, and flash. Example below:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

Anyway, before you do all that, have you tried wiping the phone from recovery mode? It might help.
You can also try asking seeARMS for help in his thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906977

I know how to get back to stock now - i am just curious about how to re-flash the rom - I want to get this rom on my phone.
I tried flashing it again via CWM - it's even worse, i get into android, but it's blank, black, nothing's there, no buttons work, etc.
so what I was SUPPOSED to do was unzip the original rom .zip file and delete the extra stuff ? then rezip it and flash THAT file via CWM ?
that wasn't in the instructions -- look at the instructions it gives you 2 options:
-------------
"1. Download and extract the file you downloaded above to the root of your internal SD card (both the "seearms" folder and the .ZIP ROM file).
If you would like to customize your install, continue doing step 2. If you would like a stock install with all the applications + SpeedMod kernel + JL2 modem + Generation X theme, skip to step 3"
3. Boot into recovery, and select "Install zip from sdcard".
4. Select "Choose zip from sdcard", and scroll to the ROM.
------------
I did what it said - I did a stock install and skipped to step 3 without doing 2a-2e (custom install)
no where in the instructions did it say I had to open up the .zip file and delete contents then rezip it and flash that file
I need to know how to flash this "custom" rom as per the instructions via seeARM himself -- i didn't do the "custom" and that's what messed me up
ok i flashed with stock JL2 and now i get 10000 force closes
why is this ? anyone ?
Hi everyone, seasons greeting's and all that
So, I have successfully rooted my phone (after lots of reading etc) with the SpeedMod kernel which IMHO makes my phone fly, quite impressed indeed.
I'm unfortunately a novice and I am having trouble installing a ROM, although it works perfectly well when I have to flash back to stock with odin.
I completed the required wipes as suggested is always performed when installing new ROMs. I placed the zip (tried this with CheckROM and Hyperdroid on numerous occasions) on the internal memory (external 2gb memory still in situ) and via CWM proceeded to "install zip from sdcard" and then "choose zip from internal sdcard", the flash process took all of 1.5mins which I thought was far too quick.
When prompted, I reboot the phone with the option on CWM and basically get stuck at the image in the pic below, even after waiting 30-60mins
Any help greatly appreciated as I am really keen on trying some great ROMs from some great devs.
Many Thanks, Rizur.

Are you selecting 'flash zip' or 'install zip from SD card' then selecting the file?
1.5 minutes also sounds about right.
Sent from my GT-I9100
Sorry, I am indeed selecting "install zip from sdcard" and then "choose zip from internal sdcard".
Get back into recovery and flash the file again, or restore a previous backup. Otherwise get into download mode and flash a rom that was specifically made to be flashed through odin, there's a few of them.
Cheers! I'm currently on stock with SpeedMod kernel, I may try and flash again or find those odin based ROMs you speak of.
flash a rom with odin like lighning to see if its working
I am currently on UltraToxic ROM, mainly because I'm struggling to flash via CWM.
All is well so far though so I'm happy
A clue ??
Copy custom rom zip xxxx .zip or whatever its called to internal sd card .
Boot to recovery cwm .
select Install zip from sd card .
choose zip from sd card or depending upon CWM version choose zip from internal sd card .
Navigate to named zip file xxxx.zip select then answer yes in the next window .
Should now install and boot .
If fails it would be worth checking your version of cwm and maybe even install a new cwm and root kernal or start over and wipe the phone .
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 cwm and root
then your custom rom of choice .
jje
What I can say is these.
Turn off phone.
Enter cwm again.
Wipe everything.
Try reflash and it should work now.
Good luck!

Thanks guys!
JJEgan, I will try your advice mate, hopefully I will get this thing running CheckROM as I would like
I'm in no hurry but would be nice to be able to test out more ROM's!
Once again much appreciated guys!
Rizur.
Thank you in advance.
I just got my SGS2 back from repair today (stuck pixel) and I wanted to installe CM9. I thought I'd start with the latest CWM - the link was broken so I flashed CWM 4.0.0.8, which flashed fine.
When the phone rebooted, it sat in a loop doing nothing. I then flashed CWM 4.0.1.4, which also did not help. I attempted to wipe cache using CWM. A heap of errors scrolled down the screen. I thought I'd restore back to factory kernel and rom, which I did. I am still in bootloop and I have the following text on screen when I go to stock recovery

dunno...most likely you flash wrong rom without reading first...or your zip file not finished download....
check you file..name, actual size before flashing
I hadn't even gotten as far as flashing a ROM, to obtain root, I attempted to use CWM, that is when things went wrong
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458 try this even i got strucked like that wen i tried to flash custom rom
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
That would work, but multiupload is busted
Wipe data/factory reset, clear cache.. The it will start a fresh.. Then re-root if needed.. Hope this helps
This post was most of the solution. After this, I could flash an old version of CMW that worked. Following that, I could flash cyanogen mod 9. Thanks to all

Hey.
My friend has a galaxy s2, GT-I9100
It had the stock rooted ics rom on it.
He had some problems with it and I decided to flash resurrection remix on it.
I did a full wipe( wipe data/fact reset, wiped cache, wiped dalvik cache and formatted /system)
Then I installed the rom. It flashed succesfully. So I rebooted, and during the boot i got the kernel panic thing.
I couldnt get into CWM anymore.
Then I flashed a stock image via odin.
The phone rebooted when it was done. It cant even get past the "gt-i9100" screen...
So then I tried installing cwm via odin.
When entering recovery, I get a android poppet with a loading bar under it. The loading bar freezes.
See this pic.
