I have rooted my phone with odin and installe the kitchen pro app, but whe i try to install checkrom 6hd or any rom it fails at verification i successfully did all this a few months ago on a sgs2 before it was stolen, i now i seem to be hitting problem after problem...........
if you want to refer me to ''in in this thread'' please post the link because im struggling to find help, ive looked all over and navigating this site is far from easy.
I get the yellow triangle so i guessi rooted properly, ive tried 2 roms, neither will install :9 please help me............ delete this thread after if need be
again, please help
which kernel are you using.. download a custom kernel..like siya or neak.. and make sure its the correct version .. dat is if you are using GB rom then download a GB kernel. the try flashing the rom from recovery
1) Kitchen pro will work only after installing Checkrom,
2) flash another (CWM+Rooting) kerenel from ODIN like siyah,
link for GB Shiyah Kernel : http://gokhanmoral.desean.net/siyahkernel/v2.6/Siyah-v2.6.14.tar (make sure you are on GB version now, otherwise you have to select ICS siyah kernel)
and try to install Checkrom from CWM
I've done all that, I keep getting E:verification failed.... any help please?

Hi guys.
I'm new here so please bear with me if i am in the wrong section.
I've flashed my sgs2 with litening 6.1 rom, and i am really really really glad that i got the rom, BUT... since i am as before mentioned a big ass noob, and since it was a pre rooted rom, so i didn't need to root my stock rom before flashing the litening 6.1 rom, but i made a mistake ... i didn't backup my stock rom ...
so here is the dilema. i want to unroot my galaxy s2 since there is an official 2.3.5 rom for sgs2, and i would really like to get my hands on it since the battery consumption is a huge issue on other roms.
anybody who got 5 minute of spare time to explain which rom (maybe post a link directly for the rom) to install and how to do it ... my friend was all about "flash recovery, wipe bla bla bla" ... that is foreign language to me ...
I am from denmark so i would appreciate if anyone could show me the link to the standard stock rom for scandinavian region. please once again, just writing "flash in recovery mode ... etc" wont help me much ... just a little more detailed description would be appreciated.
in advance thank you for your replies
You can just download the stock rom you want , get your phone to download mode and use odin to flash it. Put the .tar file on the pda section in odin.do not tick repartition!
This will put everthing in stock again including unroot.
Hope this help

About wipe. If you get boot loop then do wipe.
You just need to download one file.no need the separate kernel.
Good luck

noob asking Q again ... i've downloaded this firmware
GT-I9100_HTD_I9100XWKF4_I9100NEKF2_I9100HTDKF2.exe - 263 MB, BUT ... how the heck do i flash an .exe file on my device?
and i've downloaded this kernel too: I9100XWKF4_Kernel.exe
so, i extracted the first 263 MB file, from exe, and than it turns into .rar file ... when i extract the rar file i get a lot of small files, more than i need to. so how can i install this FW on my sgs2 ? i don't think that it's possible to do through odin ...?? should i put the .rar file on the root of my SD card and than flash it with CWM ??? and should i also flash the kernel or does this first file contain kernel already?

thx mate ... i've been reading that thread over and over again. but just don't know if the .rar file is to be flashed just like that or what? and does it contain kernel already or should i also flash the kernel... big concern as i don't want to lose/wipe my data or brick my phone ... i'm kindda learning how to play around with these rom's, but i will get it eventually some day unless i don't f*** up my phone and give up LOL
anyway, thx a lot for ur help
Yes its all in one file(zip). its as easy as it shows you.
So i flashed that zip file and got bootloop afterwards :-( so i had to wipe my data and than flash the rom again :-( pain in the ass to lose my pwrfect set up.. Now i gotta start from scratch again :-(

Ok, i know this is an old tread, but just to not create a new one, let's use it and ask similar things about backing to stock firmware.
I am about to sell my phone and want to know how to clean internal SD card and let no trace of my files, folders and apps.
How to do that?
Thanks
I have spent the fortnight since getting my s2 reading everything I can about roms, rooting etc and I cant say that there wasnt / isnt some confusion, but this is where I am as of now.
I want to start trying some other roms like CM7 or MIUI
To root I have kies installed for the drivers.
I have odin and also super one click
I have downloaded the stock kernel for my phone which is XWKI4 from the xda site. I have the very bottom one which is around 8mb. My phone is from CFW but I didnt download the 200mb plus CFW one ( not sure if I need to? ).
I am going to download any insecure kernel and use with odin and then use superone click. I am then going to put the stock secure kernel back on.
Then I planned to download clockwork rom manager from the app store and start to download and flash firmwares with that.
Am I on the right lines or miles away from where I need to be? Been an iphone user for 3+ years so android in itself is completely new to me.
Any advice or help or confirmation I look good to go would be very much appreciated indeed.
Thanks.
Easiest to flash a cf-root to get the phone rooted. Installs CWM also.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Do not install anything with Rom Manager. If you want to flash things do it with CWM recovery. Go here and get your phone rooted and follow the guide it gives you. Could not be more simple to do it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
You have odin which is great. Just find the kernel that matches your current firmware and just flash away. This way you get cwm recovery and then you get the cwm manager apk which again is a must app to have. More explanation is better on the thread link i gave above
Many thanks all. Will check it out when I'm back home.

I dont have a computer. is there a way to root without it? My firmware is 2.3.4 and its kernrl is ki2. Thanks
I saw a thread a while ago, I can't find it now so you're gonna need to search, but you just put an update.zip in your sd, flash it in stock recovery, and viola - you have CWM (be sure to download a rooted kernel). Good luck.
If anyone knows of the thread please post links

Zips flashed with e3 needs to be signed and I think siyah is signed unlike many other roms and kernels so flash siyah and reboot to recovery recovery to flash anything, if you want to keep you current rom, I think downloading superuser is enough

zaheedahmed,
Yes it works on ICS not GB Since devices come with GB then they'd have to use ODIN to flash ICS
Anyway thread closed since been asked over and over!

hey nitin Buddy, I know this is not the right place to talk to you but please check you PM. I have PM you..
Sorry guys of this Off topic.
Yeah everything ok but why to flash CWM recovery?
How do I check I have proper working CWM as mentioned?
Because you need cwm to install a zip file to your phone.
If you have siyah running on your device, you have cwm recovery. Use that.

Can I install this ROM.please help
http://get.cm/get/jenkins/9838/cm-10-20121011-EXPERIMENTAL-i9100g-M2.zip
No. Like the link says, its a rom for the i9100G. Yours is the international version. You need to use a ROM that's built for your variant else you brick your phone. Use the search button and read ROM descriptions and instructions before installing.

Also since i have siyah kernel running , i can directly install Zip right?
Are you saying the cm10 thread doesnt have links or install instructions.
If you are lazy and cant follow simple instructions,then modding your phone isnt for you.
Havent you learned ANYTHING since the last time.
I hope you also appreciate the time Ive wasted posting in this thread and the effort I went to adding a pic to my sig..........for your benefit......lol.

Thanks for the tip mate:good: I did some reading and found that I need to Flash CWM 6.0.4.5 or so. But somewhere I read about kernels. Can someone tell me the sequnce in which I should flash CWM, Kernel and ROM . Probably going for CWM 6.0.4.5 , Gustavo's kernel ( just because read somewhere its good ) and POUND ROM. Do I need to do all at once ?
Do I need a PC to flash these stuff ? I have a PC without admin priviliges so I can just download the files and copy to my SD card.
I know no one wants to feed spoon , I have done my homework need someone to show me the way to do it without me having to go through entire XDA pages.
Please help.

Thanks for helping me out, Well the main reason for me to flash a Kitkat Rom was because I was not able to login into my skype account using the android app. It says " Incorrect username/Password" . Well I re-installed skype serveral times but same error. The login details are absolutely correct because I can login using PC App and browser. My friend tried his ID and still problem seems to be with my app as I too can login on other phones. Thats when I started thinking maybe this is because of my ROM. Unfortunately after following this thread to flash POUND rom it still seems cant get skype working as same error appears .
Can someone help, Skype is very important app for me.
Do I need to open a new thread related to this for related responses?
