I read somewhere that i need CWM but the problem is that i can't install it I don't know why(cant mount sd card so cant fild CWM to install... anyway) and I have rooted my phone...
So I was wondering if there is another way besides CWM to do that...
Thanks!
download battery calibration from market, let the mobile charge to 100% and use this app to clear battery stats
Reboot into recovery scroll down to advanced in there you will see clear or wipe battery stats click on it and then reboot phone as normal

Don't wipe. Can you reboot into recovery? If so restore a previous rom or nandroid. You shouldn't lose anything. Above All don't panic.

Before clicking reboot recovery restore a backup that you have made, first.

Do u still have the rom or ANY rom still on your SD card..(internal SD) ?? Just flash the rom again from recovery . If u can access cwm you are fine.

doesn't that wipe everything?
Can you get into download mode? If so Odin to stock. Then put whatever rom you want on there. I believe your pics and vids will be there if you don't repartition. Can someone confirm that?

I am not trying to be a smarta$$, but your post says that you are clicking reboot recovery. What about just reboot? Could also wipe /cache and then advanced/wipe dalvik-cache, then reboot.
If you have adb then you can reboot that way too.
Btw, what ROM are you on?

I think i know what rom is on it? is there a way to find out without being able to boot? and to reflash just install on sd, wipe dalvik and apply sdcard:update.zip or install zip from sdcard?

reboot just locks up at splash screen and clearing the cache and dalvik wont delete files correct? also the cache we talk about is the wipe cache partition?
Wiping /cache and /dalvik won't delete any data so no worries about that. Wipe them both and then reboot. It will take up to 3-5minutes to rebuild the caches.
I kind of need to know what ROM you are/were on to figure out where to go. Once you answer that and try the above, and it doesn't work I have another idea to try.

Hey buddy. I'll see what I can do for awhile. I gotta be at work at 7 and conduct meetings all day til 3. I have no problem talking in front of people but the redundancy part drives me bonkers. Cecil back in on him in the morning when you get a chance how far to see we have gotten.

Yes it is the cache partition. Try the wipe instructions I posted above and let me know if it works. Now that I know what you might be on it will help.

trying to reboot now but it looks like it isnt going to work. but i also read somewhere else
Only the factory recovery wipes the /data/media ("/sdcard") partition. Any third-party community-built recovery (like ClockworkMod Recovery or TeamWin Recovery Project) will wipe everything except /data/media.
So, to answer your question, as long as the files are on your phone's pretend SD card (the default for user-created content and files you transfer to your phone), they won't be wiped when installing a custom ROM.
is this true? also again could care less about the phone just need the new baby pics and vids
You are correct. The only ways to erase your internal SD card is by formatting it, masterclear in Odin, or formatting /data (not wiping but formatting -they are different functions).
Did the wipe and reboot work?

no still stuck on splash screen and vibrates maybe every minute. also updating rom not an option because not sure what rom. and clockwork wipe(even though you said will work) not an option just in case it did wipe pics. it looks like im out of options.
Download DroidExplorer and install on your PC
Reboot into Recovery. Open up Droid Explorer and see if it finds the phone. If so just browse to where you need and copy them.
hi, ytd after i charge my phone i went to off my phone and my will auto on after it is off even i reinsert the battery?
how do i solve it?
thx
Hi,
i am not sure, if I understood you properly - please be more specific or use simplier sentences.
I guess that if your phone is fully charged and you turn it of, it will self power on? Right?

i did try wiping dalvik-cache and cache partition using xrecovery. i using X10S V9 by Championswimmer - Tof37 - Wo88les
hi everybody.
i'm not new in this forum but i onl now registered so i cant post in the android development section ( or so the site says)
i have a Samsung Galaxy S II ( GT-i9100)
i was using a CM10 based Paranoid android Rom for a long time and it was great.
a few days ago i wanted to use a new ROM - [ROM 4.1.2 - 4.2] JellyBam - 20121115 [AOKP.CM10.PARANOID] [AROMA] [SPACESTYLE]
i did exactly what the instructions said :
Put Rom zip in internal SD
wipe data + cache + Dalvik
install rom - using siyah Kernel 5.0.1
after the install the Rom lodas fine and seems to work great but after the first time i need to restart the phone it get stuck in the boot animation
i tried doing another Cache + Dalvik wipe after the install but it still happens
when i was searching the Rom's Forum , no one seemed to had the same problem, and that is why i am posting this here.
if any one can help i will be grateful.
thanks in advance
shlomo
p.s.
for now i went back to a Nand backup of my old rom...
hi there.
i manged to fix the first problem by flashing the rom with a different kernel - Dorimanx...
but now i have a different problem
everytime that i turn the phone on i get the messege "upgrading android"
and there are times that the phone turnes off for no reason (mainly when i get incoming calls)
and after that when i turn it back on again the battary is almost dead - today it happened when i had 70% and when i turned in back on the battary went down to 4%!!!
what can i do???
1.Wipe data/factory reset
2.Format /system
3.Flash the ROM (choose whatever Kernel in aroma)
4.Wipe cache
5.Wipe dalvik
6.Restart
Try that.
edit: oh and if the battery problem persists, calibrate your battery (there are plently of guides out there i'm sure you can find)
Thankx for the help, ill try that (again). Just a few questions.
Do you recommend a specific kernel (if j usr siyah i seem to get a bootloop)
What guide do you recommend to calibrate the battary, there are allot of them out there that i dont kbow which to use
Thanks again.

u can use Dorimanx v7.22 kernel ma8
also battery callibration apps will not aid u in any way on ur SGS2, since it comes with seperate Fuel gauge chip
u can use the 'Stweaks' app that comes with the Dorimanx kernel and do a 'Reset Fuel gauge chip' in it to have a better reading with ur battery

thanks for the advice about the kernel, ill do that
about the fule guge chip - what exacatly does it mean that the phone have a separate one? and if i do reset it using ths stweaks, than what - is that all it takes to recalibrate the battary?

You can reset the fuel gauge chip, and if it doesnt work you can try the following: charge the battery to 100%, leave it on the charger. Go to recovery, wipe battery stats under advanced. Reboot, unplug from charger.
Hope it helps.
Edit: I think I read somewhere that its recommended to leave the battery to fully discharge after wiping bat stats (let the phone turn itself off) and then recharge again.

hi .
i did what you said and for some reason it erased my External SD card.... where i had all my backups!!
edit: first few times it worked well... now i have a bootloop again and nothing works....
another Edit : figured it out. it didnt erase my External SD, i Just can mount it. not from the system itself and not from the recovery either...
when i connect the phone to my PC it dosent show up also
Why don't you try Rootbox? Jelly bam is based on it anyway, why not try the rom from the dev instead of a cook

well... tried Rootbox and i gotta say its a nice rom.
bot not more then that... the paranoid android settings are all wonky there and i still get many bootloops - even you can work around them by turning on and off...
going to try P.A.C Rom
any advice would be appreciated
Edit: well, tried P. A. C Rom, worked well to start with. But then again it started a bootloop for no reason... For now went back to a nand backup of jellybam from 16/11 that seems to be the most stable. Why does this keep happening???
have a question? went to flash the ROM][4.2.1][AOKP/CM] GT-I9300 Vanilla RootBox [31/01][v3.6][Per-App-DPI][PIE] and didnt wipe the dalvik cache and now my phone wont do anything. is there anything i can do to fix this or is my phone done for?

Try to get in CWM and wipe cache/dalvik cache and do a data/factory reset, format system in mounts and storage and reflash the rom again. That`s how i would do it.

Pull the battery and wait a minute, reinsert the battery and try to get in recovery (volume up + power + menu button at the same time). Do you have a International GT-I9300 device?

I don`t think so (it would not boot after the Samsung logo), if you can get in downloadmode you could flash a stock rom with Odin. Do you have a jig?
