I hope this helps!

Hi, do you found a solution for this?
my s2 happen same like you too. sad

Same Case with me as well. I have a lenovo tab which has the same thing. No Launcher and it has a blank screen and that's it.

Just an idea but you could try to create a zip file of a custom launcher like nova trough titanium backup.
Flash it in recovery and see what happens when booting.

[Q] What the hell is wrong with my I9100?

Hey guys,
Im having some troubles with my device and I thought you guys could help me resolve it.
Ok so, whenever i flash a stock Samsung ICS rom on my SII, my home-button doesnt function anymore and pressing the power button turns off my device without giving any options menu. I flashed to stock XXKH3 XXKI3 XXKL1 etc and then back to ICS but the buttons just dont work. Im sure i have the GT-I9100 the package says so and the sticker under the battery in the device itselves also says i9100. Now another weird thing, theres a rom in the Android development thread well its actually a backup of someones ICS rom and whenever i restore that ROM and i boot the phone the home button actually works again, but still a no go for the power button. I flashed wit .pit format system/data/cache everything.
Do you guys have any idea whats wrong with my Device?
Cheers.
ICS = test rom alpha beta not released by Samsung not fully working for testers only .
As your warranty is now void i suggest flash stock rom clear custom rom counter and test .

Try cm9 I haven't experienced any similar problems with that

It is unstable. Wait for stable ver. Or official ICS

[Resolved} Siyah-s2-v6.0b4 Kernel 4.2.1 JB VERY slow at booting and throwing errors

I installed CM 10.1 on my Samsung S2/II i9100 and put on the Siyah-s2-v6.0b4 Kernel What happened? My phone was stuck on the boot but it did show me the Samsung logo but goes dead/blank and at times it booted up and freezing up with errors The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again
The good news is i got it back to work! but i would like to share on how i got the phone back to life/work! to help someone out there that has the similar problem.
So heres how i got it back to work!
You will need:
An SD card reader (for transferring files)
Samsung Kies installed
Odin3 v3.04 program
recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-galaxys2.tar
cm-10.1-20130105-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip
Gaaps - gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip[/url] - you dont need this if you dont use Google Talk/Play Store!
Heres what you need to do to get your phone up and running!
Put your phone into recovery volume down/back/power all pressed in until your greeted via a Custom ROMs hit volume down
connect the phone to the computer (make sure you have Samsung Kies installed 1st!
Start the Odin3 v3.04 program and browser for recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-galaxys2.tar under Bootloader
hit Start and you should see a green Kernel PASS!
Plug in your SD card reader and slot the Micro SD itself from the phone
Transfer all files cm-10.1-20130105-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip and gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip to the SD card
Put the SD card back into the phone
Hold volume up --> Back and Power and Wait for the samsung logo, let go of the Power! and keep hold until your greeted by the CMW Recovery?
Scroll down to Wipe data/factory reset and hit the power button
Scroll down to Wipe cache partition and hit the power button
Go to install zip from SD card
and browse to cm-10.1-20130105-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip and hit power and hit Yes
let it do all is stuff
browse to gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip and hit power and hit Yes
let it do all is stuff again
then go back to Reboot
All done and you should be greeted by a spinning cyanogenmod logo and goes into 4.2.1 JB by cyanogenmod 10.1
Enjoy, Hope i have help someone!
That Siyah version is only meant for roms based on the JB-leak.
The Volume Down+Home+Power is btw Download Mode, not Recovery

What on earth are you talking about?
You have no need to do any of that crap. All you need to do reboot into download or recovery mode and flash correct kernel and system will boot fine.

I couldn't find a compatible Kernel with 4.2.1!! Siyah-s2-v6.0b4 worked but was VERY slow!

It's the method he's talking about. You could've done it more easily, so as an advice to others it's not really usefull. Siyah v6.0b4 isn't meant for 4.2.1 but for the JB-leak from Samsung.

That's because Siyah kernel doesnt work with 10.1. You need to flash Phillz kernel and dont do it the way you put in first post, its all completley pointless.
Just reboot into recovery or download mode and flash Phillz or other JB leak supported kernel if you want to use leaked Sammy JB.
Or if you had access to the Siyah recovery, you simply could have flashed back your CM nightly. This would have overridden the Siyah kernel with the CM kernel.
I had the same problem yesterday, I installed SiyahKernel S2-v5.0.1 on CM10.1. Didn't see it was not for Android 4.2...
plz rtfm syiha = 4.1.2 leak only
syiha kernel work like a charm with 4.1.2 leaked. i use it in beta 4 and work very well without fc and nice reactivity.
i always use syiha kernel and always satisfied.
please flash a clean 4.1.2 leak before.
and btw if you dont understand what you are doing or dont read syiha disclamer/scope plz stay in native stock phone.
and finaly , plz say thx to the dev even you have problems becose it publish is kernel for dev not for end users.
Hi,
So there's no Siyah for 4.2.1?
What other kernel options do we currently have for 4.2.1 JB and dual boot?
Thanks!

No,you can use Siyah for 4.2.1. I have 4.2.1 and I use the latest Siyah-v5-MCM-i9100-vsync.
You can download it here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/cm10i9100vsync/files/kernel/
It works just perfect for me,very fast and good battery life.

There is Siyah for 4.2.1, click here. Been working great for me.
The kernel linked at www.gokhanmoral.com dates back to November, how comes?
Thank you (both) for the link. I installed "Siyah-v5-MCM-i9100-vsync_sysfs-20130115.zip", worked like a charm.

Thank you so much!
Thank you so much I tought I had my phone bricked and now it`s working like a charm...
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
i know you had good intentions when posting this as your main purpose was to share your successfully recovery of your phone BUT this op is really full of misinformations...
as it was stated most steps are absolutely unnecesery in this situation (including the starting situation which would never happen if you RTFM)
so as a closing statement:
- Siyah-s2-v6.0b4 is ONLY for Samsung leaked JB Rom
- procedure after flashing non compatible kernel:

my samsung is a GT - I9100 ...
before i flash the turkbey, i used rainbox v8.1 with jeboo kernel.
i flash the turkbey, see that nothing happens on start, wipe facory reset and flash again, ...
some guys had troubles too, but it seems they run the rom after flashing a second time.
now i am back on samsung stock ...
it works now
i flash a stock rom again, and change the stock kernel agains philz kernel and not like before, jeboo.
imho, rainbox rom looks nicer to me, and it runs smoother here.
in the settings menu, some text is not translated, shown in ?? turkish or so
and i miss the multi colored buttons in the status/notification bar, looks really great.
but turkbey is also a very nice rom !
thx for help

Anyways, try factory resetting the phone...if no luck take it to Samsung customer care...it can be a hardware problem. ..

like i said before..the touchscreen work fine if i plugin charger or connect usb to pc/laptop...
i dont think it becoz hardware problem since it work perfect on stock GB, stock ICS, aokp, CM and 4-5 other custom ROM...
can it becoz of battery? i use 1650mah...i have try 1500mah and touch screen getting more worst...
i still cant find any solution for my phone..
already try many method like
- using re-partion on odin with pit file
- format data, system, cache, emmc
- wipe data/factory reset/dalvic cache
- flash using odin/cwm
- root/unroot
after done all above..touch screen laggy and still make dash line on drawing...
after my last post...i have try most rom on Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development Section and my touchscreen on all rom are working perfect except official stock JB or custom rom base on stock JB...
forgot to mention that the day on my 1st time installing stock JB i accidently flash Galaxy tab 2 p3100 firmware and got softbrick
but successfuly unbrick then done flashing stock JB...dunno if this incident can damage my phone...
or is other way to make FULL FORMAT internal SD? to make sure the file that i accidently flash completely remove...

you could try Blazing Kernel, it can be flashed via stock recovery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2113545.
Or you could also flash original GB and upgrade to JB either through OTA or KIES.

We have the same problem dude, touch screen not working properly after stock jb (xef) flash but working flawlessly when phone is plugged. I can't have a custom rom above 4.2.1, else I have the problem. Now I'm on CM10.1 4.2.1 and can't leave it because of this, the official rom I want is the official.
Did you got the screen of your phone replaced ? Because mine was and I was wondering if it was that.

Not sure if it was replaced because I bought it used on ebay.
But are you using CM10.1 4.2.1 without touch screen problems? Can you tell me the date of the release so I can try to flash my phone with that ROM?

stock rom problem

hey guys, i have the international version of S3, I9300. . I searched a lot for an ics stock rom, and finally found it.. installed it with odin, all good, now rebooting..but its stuck at samsung logo.. and it stays there, and if i go in recovery it shows some red errors, something like ''can't find system dir, or data'', and can't mount them.. installed another recovery, tried twrp, and cwm.. and i saw that system partition is 1044 mb occupied, so the rom is there, installed.. but.. can't boot.. also, every ics rom tried isnt working, just isn't booting.. only 4.1.1 + ... i want to try ics because im fed up with ram problems and poor battery life.. it should be 1 gb ram, and my battery is 2850 mAh ... :/ ...some help.. thank you
after flashing ics rom,boot to stcok recovery. select wipe data & cache then reboot. first boot will take 5-10 min.

You can't go back from a newer JB-firmware to ICS easily: it has another efs-format (makes loose IMEI) and needs another bootloader. Use search function to inform.
ICS isn't necessary for good battery life. Try NCS-ROM (JB) or Slim (KK or LP).

i will stick with NCS ROM, good ram management, very light rom.. KK is boring and not baterry friendly.. and lollipop is too laggy.. so ics isn't worth it on S3?
I used NCS for 1 year, but JB isn't safe anymore. So I'm on SlimLP. It runs fine, if you don't install elephants. As batteryfriendly as TW. ICS is out of area IMO and tricky to go back.
But if you have such strict opinions about various Androidversions, why do you ask?

well,i tried so many roms and my favorite android version is lollipop..but every lp rom tried ... the ui feels laggy.. can't compare it to stock lollipop on other phones , and that is annoying.. my opinions are not that strict, its just.. every android version left me with an impression.. btw, what do u mean with JB isn't safe ?
security leaks...

You can go back to jb to ics. If you face imei lost problem, u can easily fix it by flashing modem.
Try this Ics custom rom. Epsilon Project - ICS - V3 and use older version of cwm recovery to flash this rom.
I tried this rom a month ago good battery life than other roms. But ics rom don't support more new apps
I suggest you to try Liquid smooth KK rom Use greenify and Amplify to get good battery life.
