Hello everyone.
I have just bought a second hand S2 - The guy factory reset it before giving me it.
Booted it up ran through the set up but the phone is useless as TwLauncher force closes before I can do anything.
A lot of people have had this issue resolved by;
> Installing another launcher from the market on there PC (I can't do this as I have never opened play on it yet so the phone isn't in my list of devices)
> Flashing with odin - Can you guys give me a hand with this solution please as I do not want to brick the phone. The issue is I see people talking about what version Kernal it is on - As I have never had this phone working I do not know which Kernal it is. If anyone could give me a hand with this it would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

I done that. Didn't work - which is why I am considering Odin.
But thank you for the reply.

1. after booting your phone, Try connecting it to your Pc to see if your can copy stuffs to your phone
2. Can you still access notification drawer?

after two days, suddenly i cant connect to my wifi or any wifi any more. it just detects, and when i choose connect nothing happens. can anyone help me regarding this matter. i googled everywhere and cant see a problem that's similar to mine. Thank you.
Did you do a factory reset after update? If not, might have to do it.
What's your Rom details?

Factory reset sounds a bit drastic. Try wiping dalvik cache first.
If that doesn't fix it, you might do a factory reset.
Hello,
I've been using my SGS2 for few months and I never was able to use Samsung Apps. Whenever I try to download something nothing happens. In fact there is a quick flash with some message, but it's so fast that I'm unable to read it. Today I upgraded my phone to latest branded orange LPH rom (ICS 4.0.4) and Samsung Apps is still not working. I thought that maybe I need to login to Samsung Apps, but when I try to do so I get following error:
View attachment 1323737
What's that application manager? Any ideas how to make Samsung Apps working on my phone? I prefer to omit full wipe if possible.

Goto to settings - about , Samsung account

I'm trying to get Galaxy on Fire 2 to work with my phone, SGS2.
Phone details:
Samsung Galazy SII i9100
Rooted
ClockworkMod 4.0.1.5
Cyanogenmod-9.1.0-galaxys2
Chainfire3D Pro v3.3, installed via CWM
Installed plugins QUALCOMM, NVIDIA, POWERVR
Default plugin selected: NVIDIA
I have hit Market fix a number of times, however I still can't pick Galaxy on Fire from search
I know I could sideload it, but I want to buy it, I haven't sideloaded any apps onto the phone and would like to keep it that way.
I have wiped the phone and installed Cyanogenmod yet Android Market still knows it is a "Vodafone Samsung Galaxy SII i9100" -- how do I remove the Vodafone tag?

Hello I am new in this forum. And i have the same problem.
"E:System is not installed - preventing reboot!"
I am able to push the on/off button and to turn in the following 2 options.
1.) DOWLOADING MODE
2.) TWRP TEAMWIN RECOVERY PROJECT VERSION 2.2.0 (within this I have many options like, install, backup, restore, Wipe, Mount Settings, Advanced and so on.)
If i only turn on the Tablet P7500 i get errore message at the screen:
"FIRMWARE UPGRADE ENCOUNTERED AN ISSUE. PLEASE SELECT RECOVERY MODE IN KIES & TRY AGAIN"
I have installed KIES but the TABLET has been recognised!!
I wanted to install ROM of this post
Thanks for your help in advance.

Your best bet in my opinion, is reinstalling the stock firmware with Odin and your tablet in download mode. From there you can start re-rooting and reflashing a custom recovery.
I know, it's a lot of lost time, but at least you'll be able to flash your custom ROM at end

Thanks, DONE and Working again.
I installed Android 5.1.1 Lollipop from here but im my case very unstable many crashes, maybe i did something wrong.
Wifi does not work and the other side very often frozen images.
I would only to speed a littble bit up my TAB P7500
Thanks.
I have the same ROM installed on my tablet and WiFi is working fine here. However there are the Google play services that keep crashing when it automatically updates itself to the latest version. There's pretty much nothing you can do to stop it, except for uninstalling the Google play services and replacing it with the last version that worked, over and over again...
I don't remember what version that was exactly but it's mentioned in the same thread where you got the custom ROM from.
Unless Google decides to fix what it broke all the devices running an Nvidia tegra 2 SoC are left in the cold.
What I'm going to say now is probably not what you'll be wanting to hear, it's time to look for a new tablet
