Hello, I have been trying to use some JellyBean ROMs (ParanoidAndroid, Resurrection Remix, etc) but none of these can save my APN list :\. I'm currently on ICS (Resurrection Remix 2.6.1) and the only way I can save APN configurations is thru an application calle HiAPN. Unfortunately it doesn't work on JB, when I install it and open it, it says it must be converted to System App...then reboot, when I reboot, the app gets uninstalled... I re-install it, and then the app gets stuck with a message "pls reboot your phone..." when I try to set the APN.I fixed permissions, clean cache, etc... and nothing works.
Any ideas?
thanks in advanced!:cyclops:

is there any ICS ROM/firmware, that you were able to normally use data without using any app to edit /save your APN?
I don't know if in fact the original ROM was able to do that, because when I bought my phone I immediately rooted and installed a custom ROM and in that time I was able to set my APN's manually (I was on GingerBread).
So there's no an easy solution to this, right?
thank you

For troubleshooting sake, you need to flash a stock ROM/firmware, then let me know if your APN works automatically, or you can manually input it yourself without using an app.
You the dual booting feature so that you can test without losing your primary ROM.

My bad, sorry U.U
Whenever I flash a custom ROM and lose APN settings I just ask my carrier to resend them to my phone.
They send an MMS with an installation file for the APN settings, maybe you could ask your network carrier to send them?
It's really simple. I flashed Paranoid Android 2.13 and had to get my carrier to resend APN settings and they installed and saved fine
Ok, I tried the WanamLite ICS UHLPY V12.6 Android 4.0.4 Smooth & Rock Stable ROM and it didn't got the APN list from the start but when I manually put an APN and saved it, it ACTUALLY WAS SAVED ... but now what I have to do to make the APNs work with ParanoidAndroid ROM?
Thank you for your patience
I had the same problems with Resurrection Remix. I reflashed then was able to manually input the APNs and save.

The thing here is that I have tried many ICS ROMs and in every one of them I have to use 3rd party app to configure the APNs and in JB this app doesn't work =( So I'm unable to use JB by the moment =(

I've been having problemS with my s2 screen freezing up - if I put it to sleep and wake the phone up it OK for a minute then starts to freeze up again! I've had the phone really flashed but it did not fix the problem! So I presume I have a digitizer problem, I want to send it back to Samsung under warranty - as the phone is rooted what would I have to do before I send it back to Samsung as I've heard the phone has a flash log installed so Samsung would know it's been rooted even though I will have it relished with a stock rom?
flash an official firmware.. erase thr binary count thing. There are threads here that could give u the step by step process how.. without the jig ofc. rooting your phone VOIDS your warranty.

Hey all. Um well my s2 just locks up/screen freeze and soft buttons while i brows through forums etc and its getting rather enoying now. It does it about once a day, maybe twice. I tried changing custom roms, kernel and even taken out my sd card. I havent yet tested to see if it does it on stock rom.
Could this be a hardware issue? Or is it a memory leak thing? I dont even know what that is on custom roms lol
Thanks

1. You can try another kernel like Dorimanx kernel.
2. I'll use ParanoidAndroid as an example:
- boot to CWM recovery
- wipe data /factory reset
- format /system
- Flash paranoid
- flash Gapps
- fix permissions (under Advanced)
- reboot recovery
- flash your custom kernel
- reboot phone
Done.
3. If you are using titanium backup,
A. Never restore System app +data.
B. Try as much as possible to restore user apps alone without restoring data.
4 update your apps in Google playstore
done

Hi,
I rooted my phone recently and flashed the latest Siyah Kernel* on it and installed the complementing ExTweaks app. I hadn't played with the settings on ExTweaks, but I've noticed my haptic feedback has gone a bit funny and stopped working. It would be fine when I reboot it, but when I put it into standby/sleep mode and wake it up it stops working. I can change the intensity of the vibrations using ExTweaks, which would get it to work but if I rewake it, it would stop again. So I can gather that it's a software issue rather than hardware. I've tried getting rid of ExTweaks and rebooting the phone but the problem still persists.
Anything (other than flashing the stock ROM) I can do to make it work again?
Thanks.
* (I tried to flash a stock kernel after flashing CF-Root but that bricked my phone so I had to use a microUSB jig to enter download mode, from where I flashed Siyah to get it up and running again. I lost no data and don't know if it's relevant but I thought I'd put this in anyway.)

Hi all, I recently purchased SetCPU and tried a couple of profile settings and tuning my CPU Frequency. However whenever I tuned those frequencies, my phone will freeze and reboot.
Example of such case are 200min - 1200max I tune it to 200min - 800max and it freeze and reboot.
I rooted my phone and using stock rom and stock kernel. Already given SuperUser to SetCPU....
I hope any kind souls here will bring some light to my problem here. Thanks!

I read about it but prior to that, I flashed a custom Kernel just to gain root access. However after that, my phone was in the blank screen state after that. Even tried the clear cache setting. It didn't work, hence I was forced to flash back the stock Kernel and yet finding myself still retaining the root access...
If the blank screen didn't occur, I might try other kernel...

CF-Root is basically a stock kernel with root capabilities.
The kernels Sun90 recommended support OC/UC. so just flash any of them.

Hello everyone,
I rooted my Galaxy i9100 S2 using the SU Busybox method ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719 ) with a view to installing cyanogenmod CM9. I installed CWM recovery and successfully rooted the phone. It rebooted and I had the Superuser app.
Then, I entered CWM recovery to install the CM9 rom. After I selected the option to Wipe data/factory reset, the phone started wiping the data and then it suddenly turned itself off. Now it will not turn itself on, nor will it charge. Basically, nothing is displayed on the screen. I tried all methods available, from trying to enter recovery mode to doing a soft reset, and nothing happens.
I was running on the stock Samsung Android ICS ROM. I didn't get to install a custom ROM, and the root went well, as I was able to boot successfully after that.
Why do you think this happened? Do you have any advice for me ?
Thanks a lot !

Motherboard replacements are possible yes. I'm not sure where you can purchase one. I'm handy with computers myself but I don't think I would want to replace it myself. I'm just wondering because I remember reading somewhere that Samsung said something like they would help fix phones hit by the brick bug because it was their fault. Don't hold me to that, but also because you were on stock ICS, Samsung may repair it if it's still in warranty of course.

Not in a bad mood bro. In fact my team just won.
The thing is, I'm always not so happy with people bricking their phone when it was avoidable in the first place. That warning thread was made sticky for some reason.
You know we always warn people about the stock 4.0.4 kernel, but some of them like the OP will always blame Samsung for their own error as if Samsung wanted them to flash a custom ROM in the first place.
It's just not good enough!

I didn't know I have to search the whole forum before doing a wipe. It's not an uncommon procedure...
Anyway, I took it to my local Samsung service. The phone is still under warranty, so the guy said it might take a few days but it will be free. The guy also said they have had a few instances like this.
When I get the phone back, can I flash a 4.0.3 stock rom, and then wipe data/factory reset ? I really want CM9 (the latest version, with 4.0.4) installed on it, as I like the stock android feel...

Don't worry, the insane chip will only cause a brick when you try to wipe data/factory reset when using the stock CWM on 4.0.4 ROM's. Your on 4.1 so your fine.
As for the bugs concerning CM10, please remember that they are still in nightly and no Release Candidate has been made yet.
If you have any concerns, drop a message in the CM10 thread, someone will be able to help you better there.

You are 100% safe.
Once you don't mess with CWM recovery on Samsung's ICS 4.0.4 kernel, there is nothing to worry about

I'm running CYANOGENMOD 9 ICS ROM with Siyah kernel.
Running perfectly from a month but now suddenly i cannot turn off Wifi and Mobile data.
If this problem can't be solved then i'll install CYANOGENMOD 10 Jelly Bean Rom.
Is there anyway I can save game progress??

wifi is normally a kernel issue. so if you didn't change your kernel recently it may be you have an app that simply reactivates wifi/mobile data (tasker, battery savers, juice defender, network switcher, locale....)
a simple check could be to do a nandroid and then to factory reset. it it helps it was a setting/app if it remains it's the kernel/rom.
then you can either restore your nand or move to another ROM
game progress etc are saved normally with titanium or other root backup aps
How to check Nandroid? By reset u mean in settings or from recovery mode?
And is the CM10 Stable?

First flash another kernel.
If you are using battery saver apps, or profile scheduler then uninstall them.

Not checking nandroid but doing one, use backup in recovery.
For reset it doesn't matter, I'd prefer recovery

Does Flashing kernel data or Apps?
Do i need to flash ROM again after loading Kernel?
