what is stock ROM odin ......I m reading broodcomb ROM tutorial ... he say use stock ROM odin to install cwm ,but it will wipe all data including SD .... can I use other way to install cwm instead of stockrom odin ,pls answer if u know what is odin
What are you trying to do exactly?
Odin is PC software that lets you flash firmware onto your tab.
The stock ROM posted in broodcomb thread is KH7, it is a leaked ROM (not released officially).
Hi everybody. Im coming from a DroidX and now i bought this piece of art, the Galaxy S2.
I have a question, if i install Cyanogenmod ROM and then i want to install a MIUI or another rom, do i need to use the Odin software for wipe al the content in my device or just flash like normal in clockwork?
My question for this is because in the DroidX if i want to change the ROM from froyo to gingerbread in a custom rom, i need to SBF.
Thanks in advance.
you can wipe in clockward recovery and install it no problem
just keep a nandroid back up incase something goes wrong
if you want to flash a CM7 based rom like miui or galnetmiui just do it as if you were upgrading from an older version o CM7, but if you want to flash a samsung stock based rom you have to use odin and then flash it
Thanks A loooot guys!!! YOU ROOOKS!
You need to wipe using the custom recovery and then install the zip from the recovery to .

I think the instruction in that thread is for US Galaxy Player. Following that down to letter will really brick his device. He will need a ROM that match his international device.
He was trying to flash a GB kernel on a Froyo system, which is most likely what caused the problem. Reflashing the stock kernel on rj's thread will not help.
What he need to do is to reflash a stock ROM or some other odin ROM under development forum. If his device is an international YP-G70 5.0, these Odin flashable ROM should fix the problem.
Stock ROM:

Now let's check if you can go to download mode (Home+power+vol down). If you can still get to download mode, then you should be able to flash one of the above ROMs.

I went from stock Froyo to a custom GB rom without a hitch... The issue here seems that he might have tried a US rom on his international unit... Also to get into Download mode is Vol down (-) + Power... Hold them both until you see the yellow download mode picture... then plug in to your PC to run Odin3...
On a second read... I realized the OP had put a GB kernel on his stock (Probably Froyo) rom... hence the bootloop... You need to get the entire rom package... Look for the threads that start with [ROM]... and not [Kernel]... and also make sure you are getting the right (International or US) rom for your device... Good luck
hello,
i have been unable to install custom ROMs on my galaxy s2, various forums indicate the installation took place but in my own case the installation process stops when ever the kernel is trying to unpack the .zip file in order to commence installation. i have followed the step by step procedures of the devs but still havent been able to. especially resurrection and batista. are there any prerequisites i need to follow. i am currently using a rooted SGS2, kernel cf-root 5.2, stockROM XXLPH 4.0.3. thnks much.
i am not an expert when it comes to resurrection or batista, but i believe that some newer roms need at least the cwm recovery that comes with cf-root 5.4 or above, so maybe you should flash a newer stock rom with a corresponding newer cf-root to begin flashing.
or, if you want, you could flash the latest siyah kernel through odin, which is compatible with both stock and aosp/aokp roms and have a nice new touch recovery that is certainly able to flash all roms as well.
also, a problem is also a question and this thread belongs in the q&a section. reported. this time someone will move it for you, in the future, please post in the correct section in the first place, for reference have a look at the thread Questions belong in Q&A.
thank you for the response. kindly advice on what stable stock roms i could try. cus i believe i have also tried with a 5.3 but still same.
just also tried the F1 nexus rom still same. maybe i need to take the S2 back to factory, like repartitioning and all, pls what do you advice cus i think something behind has been messed up.
i also noticed something, when i flash with a stock ROM, the fone reboots into the android sytem recovery and i get an error "dst read(I/0 error)". please what does this mean.
please can someone help , i can only flash ROM's through ODIN, but cannot install zip files through recovery. recovery never unpacks the files and all ROM's come as zip files. please help
Dear all,
I know there are multiple threads running for the same, but still i was not able to understand most of the way. Am having SII which is running on Android 4.0.4, I want to root my phone so that i can install Jelly Bean Rom available in the forum.
last i have rooted Galaxy Spica 5700, but it required flashing device with Odin and instillation of a new kernel. But it seems like many new things have came up. Can someone please post me Point by point procedure of rooting my device with ClockworkMod recovery.
Plenty of threads that answer this question in detail. No need for people to duplicate topics or answers.
look at this

If you know how to flash kernels via odin its simple. Just download siyah kernel for i9100 , install the drivers required fr odin , flash the kernel in download mode. It will give you rot access and CWM recovery. Then yo can boot into recovery,wipe data/cache and install any rom you want. But do not wipe anything n stock recovery since you are on 4.0.4 (which has the brick bug)
you can also root by stock recovery just by flashing a single .zip file. But if you know the way to do it by odin i suggest the odin mehtod.
and to flash JB....MobileOdin Pro.......so you'll forget about rooting with the EverRoot option........................beware of the wipes with 4.0.4 tho, that crap is nasty.
