Hi, yesterday, I updated my S2 from CM7.2 to version 9 (stable ofcourse). I installed everything from internal SD so instalation was thru the recovery.
All was fine, until i tried to open Gmail app ar Google Play app or clock app. Notihng happens. It didnt start, just blink. No error messege or anything. So I made factory reset. Gmail app was not included, so i downloaded it as an apk. Instalation was succesful, but when I tried to run it again, same problem appears.
Do you have any experience with this issue?
I restored my CM back to 7.2.
Thanx for any advice

If you're a bloody noob and getting confused by following simple instructions, go down and read about using the noob-proof ODIN method.
First time installing CyanogenMod 9 to your Galaxy S II, or coming from another ROM:
- READ FAQs: http://teamhacksung.org/wiki/index.php/Experimental:GT-I9100:Frequently_Asked_Questions
- Make sure you're running ICS bootloaders lower than LPH! (if you're unsure, flash the CM9 Resurrection Edition)
- Make sure you're running a proper working ClockworkMod-Recovery
- Copy GApps and CM9 ZIPs to your internal SDCard
- Boot into Recovery
- Flash CM9 zip
- Flash GApps zip

Did you flash GApps after CM9?
Tried all of it
Made a factory reset on 7.2 and then installed 9.0 stable and gapps. After startig the phone, I get only to the starting screen where I should touch the android to continue (tried to change language, but it doesnt react. Only able to get to emergency call). after touching it says: application stops working. tried to restart phone and make factory reset egain, but its pointless. I cant get thru this instalation.
I´ll try to dowload CM9.2 nightly build. And i will see what I can do with that
OK, got it. I was installing wrong package of gapps.
Wark like a charm now

I flashed JTs nightly CM7 build number 14 yesterday, first time flashing CM7 and so I am just wondering if I did something wrong because I cannot get the android market. I followed the steps in the wiki found here but when I flash the cm_fascinatemtd_full-14.zip it powers the phone on directly, as in I go straight to my home screen and I never have gotten to flash GAPPS. So I have tried rebooting into CWM and then flashing GAPPS, installing it from ROM Manager and also reflashing CM7 from ROM Manager now I know there is a method in ROM manager but I need ROM manager PRemium to download CM7 nightlies. Is the easiest way to get the market and all subsequent GAPPS by going back to stock (ODIN to DL09 to ED05) then rooting and then buying ROM manager or did I miss something?
I have also tried sideloading the market but it never opens up, it shows a white screen then jumps to the most recent thing I had open
You should have setup screen (google sign in with android logo) when booting from CWM after flashing CM7 and gapps.
I would flash CM7 and gapp on CWM not on rom manager.(Wiping data/dalvik/cache)
Once you sign in for google account, you will be asked what google apps must be installed, and then market will be opened for installing the selected one.
I don't know exactly why, but once I missed that sign in chance (just skip), I haven't had any second chance anymore for installing gapps although I reflashed it again. Same as you've seen.

Boot into recovery via power button menu and select the gapps.zip and install and reboot

Are you sure you are booting into CWM via the Power Menu in CM7 and NOT by the 3 finger method??
This is very important, in order to get to the "right" CWM... Remember, once you are on CM7 or Vanilla GB, ONLY use the Power Menu option to go to CWM. (Or you can use ADB Reboot recovery too.)
Are you flashing CM7 AFTER you flash gapps? You should only flash gapps after you flash cm7, not the other way around. I second Neozen on making sure you're using the 'good' cwm.

Hi
I have just Rooted my Samsung GS2 everything was going OK. Then through ROM Manager Premium I tried to Install Cyanogen Mod 7.10 Stable but it keeps failing .
Has anyone any helpful Tips . I am a Newbie.Is Rom Manager not suitable for Samsung GS2 . Thanks in anticipation .
Its stated in the Q&A thread,
atinm said:
Q: How do I install this?
A:
Latest version: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=galaxys2 (for when nightlies are working normally)
Check the md5sum if you want to be sure that the download worked (different OSes have different programs that do md5, on ubuntu it is md5sum that you run against the zip you download and compare to the md5sum number shown on the download website). ROMManager does this automatically for ROMs you download via ROMManager.
- First time flashing CM 7 to your Galaxy S2 (or coming from another ROM)?
Only for the International version of the Galaxy S2, US versions like the AT&T have their own device specific builds.
Note: sometimes you need to flash twice back to back without a reboot in the middle. The install should take a little time, if it happens very quickly, flash again.
Install via ClockworkMod (do not use ROMManager for initial install):
Make sure you're running a rooted device.
Root your device and install ClockworkMod Recovery (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118693)
Do a Nandroid backup!
WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition) - do it for real.
Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery.
Do not reboot! We mean it - do nothing except choose zip and continue next step (if you come back to us with permission issues in install, we will know you did not read the directions and will call you an idiot). If it just plain hangs, reboot directly back into ClockworkMod recovery and continue at the next step.
Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery, again (due to a bug in the install).
Reboot
Install the Google Addon through ROMManager which is easiest, but you can
download the gapps.zip and install via ClockworkMod recovery instead.

Hi
I followed everything said but now I have a Yellow Triangle on the Opening Screen and I can not do anything .It won't re Boot I took out the Battery and still the same result.. I am sorry if i'm a fool but can anyone help
I have had CM7 for about a month now and the troubles are becoming too much. My sd card isint read at all anymore and i cannot use the camera or gallery anymore. I have tried multiple fixes/sd cards and no cigar. Just yesterday many of my apps started force closing and many functions of the phone are now unusable. I tried wiping cache/dalvik and reflashing the rom but still have the same problem. I think it is time to upgrade to the most stable version of cm9 out. Can anyone advise me on the best/safest way to upgrade from cm7 to cm9? I have heard flashing over it can work perfectly and sometimes it doesnt.
Any advice in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

cm7 has work arounds for all of those issues...and you may have the same troubles on cm9 since they are both mtd based. take sometime and research, this has all been covered 100+ times.

Hey guys
I'm trying to flash my S II I9100G with cMIUI, which doesn't work. The phone gets stuck during booting right after the installation. I've been messing around with this problem for a couple of hours by now, been googling a lot and yet I have not found a solution.
What I did in order to flash the ROM:
1) I installed the latest German stock ROM (ICS) using Odin.
2) I followed this tutorial (root using SU-BB-Installer.zip and flash CWM recovery kernel 6.0.1.2 via kTool): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2065581 So far everything works fine. I have root access now.
3) Downloaded the cMIUI 2.10.19 zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804619
4) When I tried to flash cMIUI from Recovery and toogle signature verification "on", it told me "signature verification failed". I ignored that message and installed it anyway.
5) Installation ran smoothly. After finishing it, the phone wanted to reboot. It now got stuck in the booting screen. I can not get the ROM booted.
I don't think it's cMIUI-caused, because I tried to flash a clean CM10 and still had the same problem (even though it didn't fail signature verification). Here are some more things I tried:
- installed clean stock ROM via Odin, again. Then followed all above steps exactly as described above, except for using Odin for flashing CWM Recovery instead of kTool
- again, clean stock ROM. After rooting, I then tried to install cMIUI via ROM Manager v5.5.2.3. Unfortunately, ROM Manager doesn't identify CWM recovery and keeps asking me to install the Recovery-System with ROM Manager. When I try that, there apparently "is no official CWM Recovery available" for my model. So, ROM Manager is no option
As described in the following thread, I can not use the ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.1.2 kernel on aosp based ROMs like cMIUI and CM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631934 So that probably is the cause of my problem. Can you tell me what kernel I can use, instead? Or is there another way to flash that ROM? Via Odin, for example...
Thanks for your help in advance. Very much appreciated!!
Regards,
Daniel
What Codeworkx is saying in that thread is, that you cannot use that kernel when you are already on a aosp based rom. So you can use that recovery.
Something you didn't mention, did you do a full wipe from within the recovery? If you didn't do that, then thats probably the source of your problems.
1. Flash a stock rom true Odin.
2. Flash the recovery (you don't need to root your rom after)
3. Wipe system/factory reset
4. Wipe cache.
5. Download the rom again to make sure you the download went well.
6. Toggle signature verification off.
7. Flash Miui
8. Reboot and wait.

Thank you so much! Wiping helped. :good: Why didn't I try that before :silly:
Awesome, now I can finally enjoy cMIUI. It's really great! (except for crashing galery/camera app when starting cam from lock screen. but who cares )
Thanks dude! :highfive:
I have installed [ROM] MIUI V5 v 3.9.6 [06/09][Update: Full ROM ]!! from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2401232 in samsung galaxy s2 i9100g by Temp CWM6 . But now holding down (volumeup+power+home) not taking me in recovery mod. Now who to go in recovery mod to install GAPPS(for same rom) or to install any other other ROM. Also Now it is showing "only emergency calls" not registered on network.
Does the ROM boot normally? Did you complete the initial setup (as per the ROM isntructions)?
thanks for reply

Yes i have completed all set up completely without skipping any step. Rom is working fine now. After one reboot call functioning is also working fine. And I have installed now play store apk file(downloaded from internet somewhere). Now i have play store so I installed many gapps and other apps from store. But I cant go in recovery mod/download mod with any hardware button combination.Is flashing GAPPS from given zip file is necessary. If not, then only thing is-- Is there any other way to get recovery mod again.
My last rom was [ROM] [ROM][i9100G] X-TremExD JB ROM V9 [AOSP|GS4|XZ] by ICS_XD which is AOKP rom. BUT i did all wipes data/facetory reset, dalvik, format data, format system every thing. I have already installed many times other rom. So i think i have not made any installation mistake.
I have one other issue with this phone that any music app(music players or video players, stock or third party) not working properly. Sometime they all work smoothly and sometime all are getting some disturbance while running. They are not getting fc but sometime audio and video not comes smoothly i.e., zigzag type. I have tried 3-4 roms and getting same issue in all roms. I think it is some hardware problem. Remaining everything is fine. Now i an stuck with this MIUI rom.
I have tried holding down (volumeup+volumedown+power), but nothing happening there also. Any suggestions please.
latest ota update solved the issue
latest miui3.9.27 update soved the issue. Now holding down(volumeup+power+home) takes it to Philz touch 5 cwm base version 6.0.3.3.
Should I flash GAPPS now as said in rom installation instructions? But i have installed play store .apk and many other apps from internet. I mean Are Gapps necessary for rom functioning.
Can I install other rom from Philz touch 5 recovery.

Yes, you can install other ROMs as long as you follow the instructions given by that ROM's dev. And you can avoid flashing gapps as long as you have no issues using any Google apps. :0
