[Q] Newb in need of assistance/direction - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777
OK so after reading and watching and reading some more I thought I could successfully root and then mod my i777 to ICS. Yeah, not so much.
I managed to get the device rooted using some help from GalaxyS2Root.com and using the 2.6.35.7_ZedomaxStockKernel. After that I thought I could install shostock2 however when the install started with CWM it goes for a moment and says "Installation aborted." I tried to do the same with cyanogenmod with the same result. Also wifi won't stay on, but have unrooted and everything goes back to normal.
I searched a great deal for this, but could find nothing. I would love a link to a thread if there is one. Do I need a different kernel? I feel like I followed the directions to a T. I really would like to have ICS and the super user ability, it if wasn't meant to be then that's fine. I can just unroot and wait for official ICS.
Thanks for your patience with my newbness. Any help you can give is greatly appreciated, and I am truly grateful that you guys are here for me to ask.
The links in the sticky at the top of this forum will help you out. Please read all of them carefully before making further modifications to your phone.
You should try to avoid using rooting methods that you don't find on XDA. Go here and grab the stock with root package, and use that to root. After that, download Mobile Odin and use it to install a kernel that includes CWM. Entropy's DD or Siyah will to the trick. After that you should be fine to flash stuff with CWM.
LOL
I still can't believe keep seeing people getting info from that site, GalaxyS2Root.
Stop using that site people.
Thanks!
You guys are great! Thanks for steering back in the right direction.

I got my root kit from that website and it worked out no problem whatsoever. But I do agree with u votinh. Everything u need for rooting and flashing ur phone will be here on xda. I was merely for lucky with having no problems... whew

I'm thinking it has to do with this:
The sticky ATTENTION: AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II General Guide/Walkthrough/FAQ/hints and tips, that EVERYONE is supposed to read when they join XDA, instructs you to read this: How to Easily Root your device. Or watch the video walkthrough.
If you read the info and then decide you want to watch the vid to get another example by sight, something I believe most people would do... I know I did, you will be lead to a thread called ROM's, Kernels, Tools & "How to" I777 SGS2. In this thread the OP made multiple posts in order to separate the information while still giving you everything he believed you would need. In the second post he has a section called "<Tools>" under that it says "For all first timers" and under that it states "Excellent How To Video's".
The first video, credited to zedomax, sends you to the site GalaxyS2Root ...
Then you say that all the information can be found here at XDA ... Well, you are right, that information IS found here on XDA with an external link to "that site".
tl:dr
Not being a **** here just pointing out the reason people are using GalaxyS2Root. A thread started by Red5 (a highly respected member of XDA) includes a link to a thread made by another respcted member of XDA. At this point there is yet another link to another thread that includes the GS2Root link...
You follow the yellow brick road and it leads you to the wizard!
Personally I will only be putting Entropy or Entropy approved rom/kernel/etc. on my GS2 - His work helped me a ton with my old Tilt2.

And this is one of the reasons that shortly after moderator Red5 wrote the new sticky post with the consolodated information in it, I sent him a private message asking him to remove that video from the post, and to also update the OP of the "How to easily Root your device" thread by Jivy26 to include working download links. However, for whatever reason, he chose not to make the changes. I should have pressed the point with him, or our other moderator, but I just let it be.

Huh? I just went back and looked through all my PMs and I have no PM from you. However, I will fix whats needs to be corrected.
Edit: Video walkthrough link removed. As far as the links in the OP from Jivy, are those links not working? Are there other links that are that need to replace the ones in the OP?
Edit 2: Nevermind, I see in the last post you reference to your signature and there you have a post with two working links for rooted KH7 Odin3 packages. Ill replace Jivy's links with yours. Thanks. I also gave you credit in Jivy's post under #3.

@Red5
Thanks for updating both your post and Jivy's post. Here are a couple of suggestions on the links in the "how to easily root" OP:
The items 1 through 4 are the same as and were copied from items 2a through 2d in the Guide "How to Flash Custom Binaries Without Ever Incrementing the Flash counter!!" The links in the Guide are all working as far as I know.
First, the only exception to this is that I can not get any MultiUpload link to work. They just seem to display a blank page in the browser. I don't know if they ever work sometimes or not. This means Entropy512's original thread for the rooting packages, which is linked to in item 4 has unusable links. I just added an additional link in my guide in item 2d to direct people to the download repository for alternative links. "...or if you have difficulty with the links in his thread, there are alternative links for all his files in the Download Repository toward the bottom."
In item 2, you left the MultiUpload link, but you could change it to this one which is in the Guide - "Download "SuperOneClick v2.3.1 - Automatic Driver Installation" from DepositFiles (or look for links here) and extract it to a directory on your hard drive using WinZip or a similar program".
In item 3, you included links for both the unrooted and rooted packages, but this would be confusing to new users since it is a guide on how to easily root. I think you should remove the non-rooted link.

PLEASE help! the other issue i have is that the graphics have gone to crap. i mean aweful. if i flash another rom will that fix it or is there something else i need to do? thanks again.

Baseband version is the modem version. Has nothing to do with your firmware version and has no bearing on roms or warranty.

Ohh Heavenly XDA Fascinate forums please guide my rooting and CWM install!
Hello.... So i found a guy on craigslist to trade my Droid 2 for the Fasicnate, drove thirfty miles to his house and listend to him freak out for 35 mins as i explained the benifits of my droid 2 and it being rooted and he seriously begain hyperventelating because he was dead straight afraid of being arrested........ I was about to just.... i dont know, the word run came to mind... Anyway. WHat a beautiful phone, i mean it you guys have got something here, and im glad i added this to my growing list of android device's this is my fifth since my first love The G1. Anyways, I presumed and though i could install Cyanogenmod on it that was the immediant reason i got it, i didnt do any reaseachr and now know that u can but it runs really ruff and isnt supported... so. I modded via this cyanogen wiki http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Samsung_Fascinate:_Rooting i got all the way to the part about installing rom manager and flashing CWM, However i went to do this (yes im rooted) and all i get is when i flash cwm and i try to reboot into cwm from rom manager to make a backup is i get to the samsung 2e recovery screen .. A little more research i see something that i need to install or excuse me i need a program called odin, and i need the cwm packaged via this thread but the CWM package is no longer hosted... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788099 But, one im not completly sure that is what i need to do and two im seein what i think is a bunch of diff versions of baseband like D101 ect However i see on mine that the last of my baseband is Dh12 actually its all s:i500.04 v.dh12 SHould i be downgrading here? And its best to assume while i have rooted and taken the virginity of the G1, Eris, Droid, Droid 2 Droid X and now this beyond what i have described here is my limited experience with this phone. Also bear in mind that this phone was factory reset when i got it, and was 100% virgin. It is now rooted but that is it. I really wanted to get back to "my roots" like my G1 and have a fully modable phone from kernal on up and was stoked to get this. But im lost and i cant seem to find much help else where, or what appears to be people telling me to reroot and i know that is incorrect. Can you all point me in the right direction please! My sincere apprecation and thanks for your help and acceptace of my sporatic typeing.

Got all the links you could ever ask for from nitro. Just install Odin on your comp and install the Samsung drivers. Then just go to the link for the older cwm and d/l the necessary file. Remove battery from the phone and while you're holding the volume down.button plug the phone into.your.computer. it'll show a yellow android and say downloading. Click PDA and choose the file you downloaded for cwm 2.5 and click start. Once it.says pass on Odin you're done. Even easier, get one of the packagaes from one of these threads it includes adryns froyo rom, the modem for.froyo and the recovery. I don't feel like finding the link but if you get that it's easy its just one big file that you flash with Odin (the same.way you do with cwm) and when its done you got a froyo fascinate with a solid touchwiz rom from adryn Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

I am still fairly new here at XDA. Just to clarify and help you understand what everyone was referring to. I believe if I read them correctly, the rules about the Development section say posts and especially new threads in the development section should be limited to things that are directly related to development of a ROM, kernel, or MOD. This is so the development forum is used for improvements to existing ROMs, kernels, or MODS, or development of new ROMS, kernels, or MODS so the developers doing this work do not have to wade through a laundry list of threads or non-development questions in order to get the information they need. So if you have questions about development, or want to report a bug or problem you have discovered with a ROM, kernel, or MOD, then you come here and post. If it is a question on how to install or use a ROM, kernel, or MOD, then I guess it is supposed to go over in the Q&A section. I know it can seem kind of confusing, so the only reason for me posting is to hopefully help clear up any of the confusion. Hope this has helped, and definitely follow nitrogliceryne's advice and help. Good luck. Mods and devs, Sorry if this long post has cluttered things up even more. Just trying to help.

No sense being a wanker about it, except that it can be fun if you woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. I know it makes all the "experienced" users feel good to bash every new guy that posts in the Development Thread but something really should have occurred to the community at large by now: If this is happening something like 15 times per day, maybe the thread title should be renamed to Developers ONLY or Not for Q&A (or something like that)...although I'm kind of guessing that it's an auto-naming thing that they have set up for each new device that gets listed on the forums, so that might not be an option.
Usually I'm not very into getting threads moved when they're placed where they are but this thread is just straight ridiculous. Hyperventilating, seriously? We need to have some sort of HTML implemented that allows any user to click the button and flag the thread for being moved. Not flagged for being inappropriate or reporting, just flagged for need of being moved to another section.

[SOLVED] Where do I find faux kernel?
So my ignorance is showing. :-/ Enlighten me? Don't have the requisite 10 posts yet to post this in dev thread so I guess I have to put it here. Just installed the Energy Rom released March 10th. My Wifi isn't working. According to the Dev thread, this means I need a new kernel. Somebody in the thread thinks fondly of the faux kernel so I guess I am looking for that one. Could use a clue as to where to find it. Aside from no Wifi, love the Energy Rom.
all you had to do was read The READ ME FIRST section. stickied on top, or do a simple search. it is un-necessary to create an entire new thread even here.. here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1359951
Figured it out! The thread where I found the kernels was called: [Kernel]Amaze[2.6.35.13](v009)OC~1.73/JRCU/UV/CIFS+UTF-8/Power Saving[Mar-13] You have to look carefully but there's a site for downloading them mentioned somewhere in the first 3 entries. 2nd one, I think. Didn't work the first time. Error made me think /system might still be read only so I booted into my custom recovery and used "Fix Permissions". That seems to have done the trick! Freaken HTC/T-Mobile. :-| My Motorola Xoom wasn't anywhere near this difficult to get it unlocked, rooted and a custom ROM and kernel installed. Even was able to put ICS on it. ;-) Jim C.

Unsuccessful Odin Kernel install, lead to load screen lock
So, I'm sure this has been asked before, and I've been able to find similar questions with extremely technical answers. I am a layman trying to root my I777 for better access and increased stability. I, however, seem to have been given an Odin I9100 kernel, rather than the SGH-I777 kernel that I was searching for (a friend helped me find it who roots every phone he has). I installed the Odin kernel, without selecting flash and now I am stuck at the load screen where it displays [Samsung Galaxy SII : GT-I9100] along with an exclamation point. It has been sitting like this for around 45 minutes now with no load. Could someone explain (or link) a simple thread that they know about that could allow me to restore and start again? I'd rather not have a $500 brick sitting in my house right now. Again, I'm sorry that this is likely a repost, but I cannot understand most of the jargon that is being said in the threads that I have found.

I even searched outside of the forums...
I actually had a similar problem not even 2 days ago. The best advice I got was to research CWM (Clockwork recovery) and learn how to flash through it. The XDA wiki is also a great tool to pick up on some of the more basic concepts, like what a kernel even does (communicates the software to the hardware).
hmmmm..... i wonder why everyone says read the stickies..... maybe because there are such juicy morsels of self-help information like: (pay attention to the first link, i have spoonfed....its a whopper) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1288112 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285894 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1311081 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20459226&postcount=158

Is there anyone who can develop a rom or mod to make the View just like the Flyer Wifi only? this will get rid of the error messages every 3 seconds Click to expand... Click to collapse 1. Such a post does not belong in the development section. 2. Never ask if someone can develop a rom for your own needs. 3. Are you kidding? There are already several WIFI only roms available.

I am sure that I am not the only person who would be in this situation; (I would also be willing to compensate the person if I were the only person, never asked for anything free) 3. The rom that I did find that seemed to be what I was looking for says file not found on the download site, Which is about what every file I try downloading here today says, I assumed by the dates on age of the View there might not be anything currently avaiable.

I got what I need from xda member kevinrocksman. He helped me a lot.turns out a lot of the Roms on here are no longer supported. I am now on stock HC Rom with jmz kernal overcloked to 1800. And it works great. I guess what I was looking for was a stock GB sence Rom that allowed the pen to work on everything. And remove everything from sprint. But I found that putting it in airplane mode does the same. I did compensate the member who helped me. Wasn't looking for a free handout.

How do your hold your head up? Your neck must be super muscular to support that monster head of yours. (You said any questions) First though Adam had already told you how to fix it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36922297 By the way this was already long overdue because you gave it an obvious name. I would recommend explaining the problem a little better so people realize it's after the ota, not just general. This won't fix all of those. Oh ya one last thing, it's called a bootloop. Maybe people can search for thisv thread if named right Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
zactheandroidmac said: Send your love and thumbs up to zactheandroidmac!!! Any questions please ask. Click to expand... Click to collapse Really??? I know you mean well, but please don't plagiarize. Reposting someone else download links is frowned upon by some, but asking for some love and a thumbs up as though you are responsible for the downloads is not fair to the original developer. Adam Outler should be getting credit for the download links you've provided. You should have provided a link to his thread, which could warrant you getting credit for pointing people in the right direction.
