flashing updates, apks, mods not working :( - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a rooted GT-I9100,
4.0.3
Baseband - I9100XXLPX
Kernal - [email protected]#3
Build number - IML74K.XWLPI
After re-installing a backup through CWM I can no longer install things like call recorder built into the rom itself, not the 1 of the many apps that do not work correctly.
I can't install any mod. I've tried to reflash the roms from fresh using Odin but it doesn't seem to work.
My end goal is to have a rom with built in call recording and for it to be jkay deluxe settings compatible.
I really didn't want to start another thread but I can't figure it out.
Can anybody understand what my problem is? and if so would you kindly help me out please?

Am I missing some important info or...
does nobody understand my problem?
I can't install a call recorder or add contacts to dialler, does anyone know what I mean? :/

saw that 28 people had read the thread but nobody had left a reply to even say if what I was asking made sense.
I'm refollowing the advice you gave me from the other day (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1981862)
I just can't understand why my phone won't install anything...... starting to hate this phone

ok o now I'm stuck..
I've redownloaded the rom and installed it but I still can't install the call recorder, does anybody have an idea why I'm unable to do this?
I thought this site was for these sorts of questions no?
I wouldn't have paid for the app if it was not...

seeing as I'm getting no help for whatever reason I
have decided to abandon this rom all together, THANKS GUYS!

if anybody has
any ideas why as to my phone just decided to top installing applications I'm interested to hear your thoughts.
My only fix was to completely install a different rom..... very strange

Galaxy ace text problem

Hi new to forums but big big fan. I have seen the problem i face posted on many forums including xda but not with sufficient information. So here goes.
My partner bought a galaxy ace from virgin here in UK, it came with 2.3.3 pre installed after 3 days texts stop sending with 3g on but still be received. But when wifi is on or packet data or 3g turned off texts send. Now my partner had problems with germ previous phone abduction doesn't want to root in fear of needing tech help in future, now we can find a temp fix using automateit but not ideal for her. I will also note my sister got one on 3 and the problem hasn't occurred. Any other ace owners got this / fixed it without root and new Rom? Virgin CS is useless so not had any help from them. As i said i know this subject has risen before but just needed help as virgin will NOT reduce bill even though Im sure its their problem.
Any help / ideas?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I haad the same problem on one of my SGA', However it is on Orange and i had the exact same problem, this exact problem didnt start untill 2-3 days after purchase. I found NO fix for this..1 week later i flashed to 2.3.3 KP7 not the original pre-installed stock rom..Ever since flashing the problem has not reoccured.
I hope this may point you into the right direction,
Ste.
i got her to give in and let me root, and install official 2.3.4 on it using odin, but problem still there, so what install a earlier non network rom to fix? i thought the official 2.3.4 was non network specific?
Glad she gave into let you root her sga, thous im sure she wouldnt have notice it if you dont it without her knowing
Anyways back on topic,
I advise you to Flash (USING ODIN) to S5830XWKPW, CSC - S5830OXXKPC. This should rectify your issue
You can obtain it from samfirmware . com
Ste
ok nice, but im a little confused about this, with my hero all data had to be deleted before flashing, but with galaxy ace you dont?

captcha was also a problem for me, Use the audio captcha
Ste
didnt work either lol. im hoping this will fix it the complaints i get from her about texts xD
Are you refering to the audio captcha not working?
Ste
yeah. also extracted the .tar.md5 weirdly the files mentioned arent in the archive :/
Can you use any custom roms if your on orange uk ?
is the problem with just using 2.3.5?

Noob problem after root

Hi guys
Sorry but i am a noob to all this so have proberly stupid questions.
After flashing to a customer rom i went back to a stock t-mobile rom. Problem i now face is when i try to download apps from other companies that are not on the app store eg mfortune they are unable to detect the type of phone i am using so i get "sorry we do not currently support your device" despite being able to do so before rooting and flashing. Is there a way i can change this with the release of skyGo on android this month i want to be able to download it. As it will be only on the galaxy s2 and HTC phones for some time i dont really want to wait.
Any help please???
Did you do a full whipe? Adding some details like model number, the rom you flashed and the one you came from may get you some more useful results.
As for the skyGo app, it won't take more than a day for it to pop up as an APK somewhere on the net.
Hello
Thanks for the reply i am currently in work so i cant look at my phone but will update on which firmware and kernal version i am running
I did however follow this guide to root reviews.cnet.co.uk/mobile-phones/how-to-root-your-samsung-galaxy-s2-50004972/[/url]
Not sure if that helps i did not however use the guide to flash the secure kernal maybe thats where i have gone wrong.
I will update the thread with the info later.
Thanks again

[Q] New ROM killed phone! :(

Hi guys Im a newbie on this site! I really need some expert advice please.
My battery had started to charge very very poorly so I decided to put a new ROM on it (to wipe everything and start fresh!
However I have put a new ROM on but now my phone is not registering on my network. I tried adding a patch but no avail.
Could anyone tell me where I can get a UK version of jellybean 4.2.1 official stock rom? I dont want a custom one as I dont faff with my phone to the max.
Any help much appreciated.
Plus ive seen quite a few battery calibration apps on play store, will deleting the battery bins file actually sort the battery life out or is it just a placebo type affect?

probably efs format is changed as you downgraded your phone. is your imei okay as well the serial number? if not, go through the link under my signature. for better battery results, root and use greenify. and moreover there is no UK version of 4.2.1 as it is just a leak!
Best advice is to read and understand the basics before you do anything, if you are lucky you might be able to recover the damage you've already caused but this isn't certain.
Getting into a flash panic will destroy your phone.

[Q] Help needed with MTK6582 (S5)

Hi, I'm trying to put (run) a service on my replica Samsung S5 (MTK6582) which I bought from China.
But every time I try to put the service on, the settings crashes. (settings-services).
Has any of you met this kind of problem before?
If so, can you please give me some ideas how to fix this issue.
Oh I don't know if this is important, but the phone runs on android 4.2 and installed firmware (Rom) is SM-G900S_V05.
Thanks in advanced !

You might be very hard pressed to find anyone that can help with this. Very few people get clones and no developers get them. The main issue is the hardware is never what it says it is and the software is almost always the same, they will make minor edits to make it look like the os they claim it is and then change a text file to show a different OS version.
My advise would be to pull a logcat and post that. This will atleast get you what is erroring out.

Thanks for your reply Zelendel.
I just flashed another firmware which I found at NeedRom, but the problem still exist.
How to get a logcat ? do I need to install ADB or some other app?

Had you followed the rules you agreed to when you joined you would not be asking me that question.
There are hundreds of ways to do it. There are apps and adb.
Ill be honest I think your issue is gonna be the OS itself.
Thanks again for your reply !
You are right, I haven't read the rules etc.
I just came here for some fast help.
But no fuss, I will read it someday and study the adb or other app and come here again.
