in order to install CM9 rom u have to first root ur Phone using a CF-root Kernel
since Cm9 cannot be flashed with Stock recovery as it needs Custom recovery
so first root ur phone and then install CM9
My phone is already root. (with any PC )
CWM.zip is a ClockWorkMod in a ZIP to load in memory a CWM-recovery 5.X
What is a CF-Root kernel ?

CF- chain Fire-Root kernel will root ur phone and install custom recovery on ur Phone
so if ur phone is already rooted then install the CWM.zip file, then reboot into cwm recovery and install the CM9 zip file
before that in cwm recovery make a nandroid bkp of ur exsisting rom first
and also follow the instructions of flashing CM9 rom carefully form there thread OP

You root it using the same method as before, I assume via ODIN, but with an LP7 CF-Root kernel.

Try flashing a PDA which has a CF-root available ( via PC-ODIN).
Then flash the CF root to gain root and CWM.

Hello, OTA just downloaded new update on my phone, but I am not sure if I can safely apply it... I run through whole therad and I can see, somebody was succesfull with OTA update somebody not... I have stock rom IMM76D.I9300XXALF2 with custom franco.Kernel r10 and rooted with CF-Root 6.4 + SuperSU + CWM5.5 + CWMManager. So question is, if I can use OTA update, or should I firstly remove custom kernel back to stock kernel and use OTA even if rooted with CF-R 6.4 or use OTA even with custom kernel and CF-R 6.4 or dont use OTA at all Thanx very much for help
If you do not have stock recovery the update will fail.

If I understand it right - because I used CF-Root 6.4 with CWM so now I have CWM Recovery not the stock one, so I downloaded my current whole stock ROM, unpacked it and there is recovery.img <- and this is stock recovery? So now should I flash it back to phone to get stock recovery back?
Hey,
I've successfully rooted my SII and installed ROM Manager, but as I try to flash CWM Recovery and select GT-I9100 the install doesn't commence and I'm left with a message saying 'An error occurred while downloading your recovery'. Any solutions to fix this or flash CWM in a different way so I can install CM9?
Thanks for any help

Also, if we manage to fix this, how should I go about installing CM9 (if ROM Manager isn't fully compatible)?

Once you've flashed the CWM recovery, then download the zip version of Siyah kernel and just flash in CWM recovery.
Very simple

Did you even bother reading the topic you replied to?
Rom Manager from market is not properley compatible with our devices, no matter what the manager says or if you see SGS2 in the list. Uninstall it and only use the "CWM" app that is installed by kernel or reboot into recovery.

It doesnt matter, you have no reason to have latest, they are just updates to support more devices.
Just flash custom kernel, like latest Siyah, the kernels contain CWM.

I assume you are talking about PhilZ recovery........
If all you want is a custom recovery on a stock firmware then you have to match the recovery to the firmware build......
And you *do* realise that the leak/test firmware is not as stable as release firmwares don't you?

Hey guys,
I have just need some help.
I got a s2 4.0.4 (no root) and would like to install the disaster custom rom.
Because i have 4.0.4 and can brick my phone i need some helps/tips..
So as i understand i need cwm to flash the custom rom.
To get cwm i need root. Well, which root methode should i use?
I want one with cwm and supersu in it.
Oh, and after i have root on the 4.0.4 and flash the 4.1.2 custom rom do i keep my root?

Just dwnld the 'Siyah kernel v4.1.5 or v5.0.1' (tar file for ODIN) and flash the same thro 'Odin' on ur pc.
It will automatically Root ur phone and install 'SuperSu' and latest CWM recovery for u.
then using the cwm recovery of siyah kernel u can flash any custom rom of ur choice.
after flashing the custom rom based on 4.1.2 u wont loose ur root
ps- once u install custom kernel like siyah ur phone will be safe from the 'Brick Bug' issue for sure
Flashed the Siyah Kernel.
About to flash custom rom
but got one finally question.
The custom rom; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498017
Says it has philz kernel or whatever
so can i still flash it? and does it change my kernel?
Does it have a effect on me?

Yes, u can flash it and the Kernel (philz) that comes with that rom will replace ur Siyah kernel for sure but u wont loose ur root
it will not have any effect on u though
do follow the install instruction for a successfull flash of the rom.
Cheers!!
Thanks, it works!!
HI
I have Galaxy s2 with android 2.3.5. I want flash OMNI 4.4 rom on it..but before that I want to flash latest CWM recovery on my S2. And also my S2 doesn't have root access So the problem is
Can I flash latest CWM recovery when my S2 have android 2.3.5. ? or should I update official ICS from OTA before flash ?
(I'm planning to use ODIN to flash CWM)
thanks

Step 1 - flash CF kernel which is appropriate to ur baseband with Odin
Step 2- Flash cutom rom what ever u want
Step 3 - Flash Gapps..
Thats all :good:
You can flash CWM and then the custom ROM now itself, without upgrading to ICS. Just make sure you flash the correct rooted kernel for your baseband version. Don't directly flash any CWM or use ROM manager. Good luck!

My details
Baseband version - I9100BUKI1
Kernal Version - 2.6.35.7-I9100BUKJ3-CL647431 [email protected]#2
Build number - GINGERBREAD.BUKJ3
So can anyone give me correct CWM recovery to my S2 ? (I just want to flash kitkat rom.. )
And you can't search for this why exactly ? You've been here more than long enough to know how things work.
Flash Gustavo's kernel first and then follow instructions on the omni thread for flashing as a first time user.
Search around and you will find everything here itself.
I'd suggest flashing the latest stock rom via Odin, ms1 I believe. Then flash philz kernel. Then boot into recovery, (while your new rom cwm zips are on your SD card) format system, preload, data and cache. Then flash the omni rom zip, and the correct gapps, and any other mods you would like.

Hi all, my second ish post on xda (yes im a moderate android noob), i am after some advice and help on flashing CM11 to my S2 (Intl), as it feels really outdated (because it is) and also quite slow (because it is). Ive read about the brickbug and i ran Chainfire's GotBrickbug tool and it said "unknown chip, not sure if dangerous, at least it isnt known to be bad. The chip is V3U00M and the revision is 0xE. I also ran another checker and it said sane chip. Im running the stock 4.0.4 (rooted with Framaroot and removed carrier rubbish) and apparently 4.0.4 is prone to bricking. Ive read about flashing new kernels (Siyah etc) and other methods. I know there is the 4.1.2 update, does that remove the chances of brickbug so i can then flash CM11 via CWM? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Official 4.1.2 firmware is safe, only 4.0.4 has brickbug.
So do i just upgrade to 4.1.2 then use odin to flash CWM 6.0.4.5 and then follow normal procedure? Thanks for replying btw

Download XWMS3 4.1.2 from sammobile site(you have to log in). Then use Odin to flash it. Download PhilZ xwms3 kernel and put kernel zip on sdcard. Reboot in stock Samsung recovery and flash that kernel zip file. Then reboot again in recovery and flash philz 6.0.5.0 touch recovery.
Or... You can root 4.1.2 with siyah kernel, but you need to flash kitkat compatible recovery

Yes, you can use OTA to update your android. Then you need to root your phone and install CWM compatible recovery to flash CM11

I just thought I'd say I've got the S2 on OmniRom 5.1 now after using a rather unstable and buggy CM11 nightly. Thanks for your help BTW
