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

I used S2 root to root my phone.
My kernel is I9100XWLP3 (3.0.15-I9100XWLP3-CL287862
[email protected] #3).
Dialling *#1234# brings up
"PDA : I9100XWLP7
PHONE : I9100XXLPS
CSC : I9100XEULP5
Build Info : Tue Apr 3 19:44:49 KST 2012
Also, if we manage to fix this, how should I go about installing CM9 (if ROM Manager isn't fully compatible)?
Thanks

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?

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 ?

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.

After doing everything will my beauty lost it`s rooted feature ? If so, then what should I do to root it again ? Is it the same before ? But the only difference is then it was ICS and now this will be GB (as I download the GB stock rom).
Now it will be :
Android Version
2.3.3
Baseband Version
I9100DDKE4
KERNEL VERSION
2.6.35.7 - I9100XWKF3 - CL276555 [email protected] #2

Would you be kindly enough to guide me to root it again, so that after rooting I will be able to flash an ICS AOKP custom rom ?
BTW , it will be fine if the CF - ROOT version is 5 or higher.

Yes, you will lose root access.
You can download CF-ROOT kernel XWKF3 here: download.chainfire.eu/24/CF-Root/SGS2/CF-Root-SGS2_XW_CLK_KF3-v4.0-CWM4.zip
You need to first flash a stock based ICS ROM (at least), before flashing any AOKP based Rom

Thanks for your reply.
I just want to share something with you.
I have read somewhere in this forum that never do a factory reset with the stock rom (because of it`s kernel). First anyone have to change the kernel of the stock rom with siyah or dorimanx or darknight and then do anything you want.
According to that I have just tried to do that, but don`t know why I cann`t. Whenever I try to do that it always says "no signature validation",or something like that. I use CWM v.4.
Do I change the CWM to v.5 or v.6 by flashing ? I just don`t want to use CWM v.4.
BTW, now I am in :
Android Version

You are reading it WRONG!
What you read is only applicable to stock ICS 4.0.4 firmware. Nothing more!
Therefore in your case it is not applicable.
Those kernels you listed are ICS kernels, if you flash them on your phone, your device simply won't boot.
2. The reason why you couldn't flash those kernels is because they required minimum of CWM version 5.
3. You can change it by simply flashing Siyah kernel meant for gingerbread which comes with CWM version 5.
Like i said earlier, don't flash ICS kernel on Gingerbread, except an expert advise you on something.
4. If you want to flash an ICS ROM, it's very simple.
- First, you need to download Siyah kernel (for GT I9100, zip version) for gingerbread here : www.gokhanmoral.com/gm/2012/01/13/siyahkernel-v2-6-7/
- Flash the Siyah kernel via CWM recovery
- Download any stock based ICS ROM of your choice. When you are done, let me know.

1. People who ask questions hardly make mistakes. This is the reason why you haven't yet made any mistake.
2. The third ICS firmware you posted can only be flashed via Odin. I'll say, just keep it somewhere. You won't need it for now.
3. Have you flashed the Siyah kernel yet?
If yes, please post your present and kernel details

I think you are misunderstanding some things.. You must first root your phone with cf-root AND THEN, you must flash the Rom with the specified kernel. But you can take a shortcut by flashing siyah kernel. You don't need to rely on baseband version.

okay .. so here is what i will be doing..
1> root my phone using the cf root method,(that will be giving me cwm and root)
2> get into the recovery mode and flash cm 10.1.
3> wipe and clear the cache
4> install g apps..
5> install siyah kernel via recovery (the zip.)
6> reboot...

No. Did you read the first post on the CM10.1 Thread?
You have to be running an ics stock rom and then root it.
Afterwards you can then proceed to flash CM10.1.

Hey ma8 first use the siyah kernel v4.1.5 or v5.0.1(tar file for ODIN) form PC ODIN to root ur phone, to get a wrk'ng latest CWM recovery on ur phone
then follow the install instruction given in the CM10.1 thread to install the same, the CM10.1 rom comes with its own kernel that will replace siyah after install

so you mean to say that flashing the siyah kernal will directly give me root? Or will i have to use super one click app after flashing the kernel to gain root? One more thing have you tried the method you gave?
Yes it will, no need for any super one click. Once uve flashed siyah, reboot in recovery (which will now be cwm recovery), make a nandroid before you flash anything. Would be a good idea to back up your apps using titanium backup, your sms msgs with an app like sms backup and restore etc. Then proceed to flash the rom, gapps, make wipes etc.

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

Thanks heaps man, ill probably use Framaroot as it is easy and it works atm, hopefully ill be a happy user of CM11 haha
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
