Hi,
I have been installing cynogenmode 9 nightly builds on my samsung galaxy s2 (i9100) using Rom Manager .
I want to retain this setup on my phone ( rom manager + root + clockworkmod). Can I flash original stock ICS using ROM Manager ?
I want to retain my capability of flashing nightly builds of cm9 using rom manager.
Thanks,
Vipin
no but what you want can be done multiple ways...
but you should skip rommanager
1: flash Stock ROM using ODIN
2: root using cfroot
you get root + cwm
if you go stock to cm9 to stock back frequently
1: flash stock cwm flashable rom (you should have cwm with it)
2: flash cm9
3: flash stock cwm version
Thanks a lot Atifish .
can you please explain your point number 1
"flash stock cwm flashable rom (you should have cwm with it)"
it would be great if you can share url or link also for this.
If you have decided to go with CM 9,you should go with the release candidate ( RC 1) very stable, no bugs this far , used it for 3 days

I dident understand either but root with Cf-root by chainfire( if your not already rooted) and just flash the roms In CWM
When you make a stock ROM, compatible to be flashed using cwm, and just add root/cwm you get that.
There are few of those roms, search for it in Android development.

is there a flasable zip for android 4 stock roms of galaxy s2 , idf so can you please provide me the link
Unlikely. Stock roms are Odin flashable.
stock rom but dint secify stock recovery or not...
You mean signed update zips??
didnt see anything yet, except the CWM update zip for rooting the ICS rom using this method :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719
EDIT : if I misunderstood and you are looking for stock ROM zips...
CWM flashable Deodexed Stock Roms (rooted) are available here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1292825
but you need pre-root and CWM already installed, cant install it from stock recovery, for stock roms on a stock rom can be flashed from ODIN only as above post says.

Hi guys! I installed one theme last night and now i have big problems with my phone. if i wipe all device and install the GalaxyMOD again has no result, the ''Theme Galaxy S3'' is still in my phone.
I want to know how can i restore my phone to stock rom without using odin ? I have problems with usb, doesn't connect to the pc and i can't use odin.
Thanks!
Two ways. Either with Mobile Odin (get it from Google Play) or somewhere in General there's a thread with CWM flashable stock roms (don't have a link so you'll have to search for it).
i'm looking for the thread with CWM flashable stock roms, but i can't find it :highfive:
Can you give me i link ?
I'm searching for it... right now... but...
From my previous post "...don't have a link so you'll have to search for it".

You could use a nandroid backup file if someone has.
Here is stock ICS rom which is CWM flashable (released by wanam, not the wanamlite version but stock (odex/deodex) rom
http://wanamlite.com/2012/08/01/romcwmxwlptics4-0-4-odexed-fully-deodexed-stock-rom/
1) restore from a back up (if you made one in the beginning)
or
2) flash stock firmware via recovery mode
i didn't do a backup...
Only CWM Stock.

Hello,
I have a rooted device which was bought pre-rooted ( i do not know the rooting method )
its running cf-root 5.0 android 2.3.6 and cwm 3.
i want to flash a new rom but every guide here assumes you run ics, so my question is:
how do i upgrade to ics safely (avoiding superbrick bug)?
thanks in advance MoRoses

Steps are the following, not necessarily in this order
decide which JB rom you want such as
- more vanilla feeling: cyanogenmod, rootbox, etc
- closer to samsung stock: Neatrom, leaked JB rom
- download rom
- backup important stuff
- download latest odin
- flash via odin (from pc with device in download mode)
optionally, you can read some more on kernels and decide for a specific kernel.

In order to avoid brick bug, you just have to avoid ICS 4.0.4
Thank you

You flash zips via CWM.
Reboot device into recovery, wipe data/factory reset and then flash your rom zip.
The only reason I can see why you have created this topic/asked these questions is because you havent taken time to read any guides or any other topics/searched etc.
All the info you need is readily available no need to be spoon fed here.
Hi guys.
First sorry for my english.
I need your help solving the problem.
I must say that my knowledge is very basic.
Yesterday I downloaded the latest nightly build from cm site (cm-10.2-20130827-nightly-i9100)
After the download complete i tried to boot into recovery to wipe data/factory reset and cache and start flashing the rom But with no Success.
The device won't boot into recovery.
I read somewhere a post saying you should choose app and adb option under developer options\root access but still no success after changing this option.
One more question please
I downloaded the supersu app from the play store and each time it remind me the need to update the su binary each time i choose continue it faild to update.
find the kernel fixed by codeworkx in the cm thread or flash dorimanx kernel with odin ( there is one in .tar in the download list).

Had the same problem yesterday: Auto-Update seems to be broken, if you apply an update downloaded OTA (even when coming from an older 10.2 Nightly), you can't get into recovery anymore:
Download the newest .tar (9.34) here:
http://dorimanx.shine.sk/
and flash it using ODIN
(insert .tar at PDA)

hi H3llwar.
1. Which update are you talking about? I did not do any update.
2. Is required to perform additional actions before flashing the kernel?
3. which odin ver should i use? 3.XX ? 1.85 ?
4. after flashing the kernel should i flash a custom rom again ?

1. There's an OTA update function which I used. Obviously, you didn't, it seems to be the nightly thats broken.
2. No, just flash it via ODIN
3. 3.XX worked just fine for me (changed to SlimBean yesterday as CM 10.2 seems too buggy for the moment)
4. You can flash just Dorimanx 9.34.tar, CM 10.2 & recovery should be acessible afterwards
Keep in mind that CM 10.2 and most other ROMs replace the kernel you currently have, if you want to flash another Custom ROM, flash 1. Rom.zip, 2. Gapps.zip & 3. Kernel.zip

Thank you very much for your help !
After flashing dorimanx kernel via odin was able to boot into recovery mode and flash the rom.
And yes the rom is very buggy maybe i will flash other rom meanwhile.
How is the slimbean rom ?

It's great!!!
Stable, fast, good battery life with shipped kernel, and just 81MB. I don't miss any feature that CM or AOKP have and it doesn't get bricked when installing Head Soccer like XenonHD does :victory:
Give it a try!

hi mate.
i really want to try the slimbean rom but for doing that i need your help (you r my private teacher )
The latest slimbean version appears on the official site is JB 4.22 built 8.
What actions it takes when you downgrade from cm 4.3 to slimbean 4.2.2 etc ?

It isn't different from any other ROM change because SlimBean ships with its own kernel and dorimanx supports both 4.3 and 4.2 ROMs:
In Recovery Mode:
1. Wipe data
2. Wipe cache
3. Flash Rom.zip
(Optional: 4. Flash Dorimanx 9.39.zip)
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.
