I have recently bought an S2 and i love it ! The thing is , i used to have an LG Optimus 2x , which`s OS sucked and i`ve rooted it and used an custom ROM , Paranoidandroid to be more precise. Now what im wondering is , does the S2 worth being rooted and use a custom ROM , like lets say CM 10.1 ? Since this phone is smooth anwyayz and dosent have any RAM problems because of the 1gigs it has ... will it be even smoother ? And if i flash the CM 10.1 is it gonna have any major bugs ? Oh and also , should i install a custom kernel as well ? Thanks!
Too late , already bircked it hahah , now im dowloading a stock rom so i can start everything again lmao
Lol read and follow instructions carefully mate and you can always try stock jellybean or the leaked one it has alot of mods too like multi window n smart stay etc... :thumbup:

I haven't tried samsungs JB, but going from samsungs ICS to CM9 was a great difference for me. I very much preferred their app alternatives over samsungs, and the standard theme looked way better.
Nothing you can't fix with root though I suppose.
Everything has gone as expected ...except the part when i`ve fried the motherboard hahahah lmao , after succesfully installing CM10.1 in CWM , the volatile one ,i`ve did a factory reset , it got stuck at formating /data aaand .. now im waiting for news about it and if it can be fixed since i dont have an warranty :<

You bricked it by flashing a ROM or by rooting it?
If you ran outta juice while doing any of those you could have a soft brick instead of a hard brick.

Maybe you can try sending it to a service center and see if they give
you a free replacement without asking too much questions.

sadly the warranty got over 2 months back... i am looking for some possible options on repairing it... but the chances are slim
my x10 is surely bricked (bootloader is damaged)... i have contacted many devs and from the response i got, the situation is grim...
i will try n get it repaired, may be replacement of "motherboard"... but if the costs are too high, then u dont know, i probably wont repair it...

I know this probably has been asked too many times before, but I swear I searched for this specific issue and found no answer.
A friend of mine bought a SGS2 on swappa, it came with the ****ing triangle in the boot image and we paid no attention to it untill we tried to flash CM10 on it. <it is currently running cm7.
We tried the triangle away app and it displayed the "trouble parsing the package" then i read that this app works only on jellybean, my question is how do I upgrade andoid if Im not able to flash any rom on it.
Here are a couple of pictures so that you can have an idea of the errors im getting.

You are trying to install an i777 ROM (maybe AT&T or T-Mobile) to an ordinary i9100. Download the proper ROM and install it.

Fail... twice. T-Mobile doesn't have I777s and that triangle is for tripping the flash counter. It could be an I9100 or an I777.
OP: your issue is you haven't searched enough. The answer IS out there... ALL OVER THE PLACE!
Here's a clue. Read the fu¢king stickies. Yes, a bit of emoragekill. Why? Because you haven't put more then 45 seconds into finding the answer. It took you longer to create this thread than you spent searching.
I gave you the answer. This thread has run its extremely unnecessary course.

Pull the battery and make sure which phone you have. Go to that forum and look for a 'stock rooted rom' and follow those instructions. Then you should not have a problem flashing cm10 (if it is available)

what is this? and how can i get rid of it once and for all or avoid it ??
i'm Using Omega Rom AOKP Version V5
and it happens on most of the roms i use every once in a while
I'll be honest, i'm not clued up on kernel panic & upload mode. i read that it is a fatal error on the operating system just wondered if when you were changing roms, you flashed a different kernel too, or if it just that kernel you've been having trouble with (you can see where i'm going here) have you tried using a different kernel?
Had a read around and it seems that flashing a stock firmware and factory reset should sort this out for you and stop it happening again
Won't take long to reroot and get back to where you are now

Yeah, to be honest a clean start is the best solution to many problems, might seem drastic, but if you are well backed up and sorted then it really doesn't take long. You can spend ages trying to work out what causes a problem, or just be a competent flasher and just accept that when problems do accumulate a clean start is usually the quickest....but that's just my opinion

Just a plain old Odin flashable stock Rom, no reason to use a pit at all...last resort that is! Just get latest for your region and flash, you might need to do a factory reset after, so if you can, back up first including internal sd as a factory reset from stock recovery will wipe that also

Ok so I flashed seriyah kernal. I failed to write "Complete(Write) operation failed." in odin and then it said to reccont to kies and because of osmehting blah blah but i just relfahsed and now it is working fine again (4.1.2). but the problem still persists of me not being able ot flash seriyah.
Killed kies applications before you flashed?

I just can't understand why people ask for the exact file to flash, instead of trying to find out for themselves.
From what I see, its not that hard to find what ur looking for, unless ur too lazy to go through all the search results! And you can always double check with other members on whether ur doing stuff right or not.
If someone suggests you flash something, and you do it without knowing why or how, ur back to where u were before asking.
Believe me, the fun is all about learning what ur doing and why ur doing it. So after u have solved ur issue, u have not just helped ur device, u have helped urself too..
Just my 2 cents..

Using search button "root sgs2 4.1.2" . U should watch for a kernel

Word of advice....don't go offsite for rooting methods....other sites get their info here, and if not, it probably shouldn't be trusted anyway.
And for rooting....visit the PhilZ thread....search the thread for the kernel that matches your firmware and download the ZIP version. This can be flashed in the stock recovery....without Odin. ....
Not sure how? Search function will help......

Aha, ive just updated though, i really don't want to have to go through the trouble of setting everything up again -.- took me long enough to find the drivers for my wireless adapter xD
I'm not sure if you're stock or not, and if the setting is different for stock, but try settings>storage>menu button>USB computer connection.
Make sure this first option is checked.

Should mention then, im on 4.1.2.
I do not have the option to enable or disable anything like that, infact, i can't press menu in the storage section? Nothing happens?
You are in the wrong forum this is not I9305 q&a
Have you flashed I9300 firmware ????
this sounds like damaged USB port on Phone or damaged firmware .

Too be honest, i think this is an I9305 forum as well,l it says "> Samsung Galaxy S III I9300, I9305 > Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > Charging, but PC doesn't recognise it"
The mobile is two days old, first time ive touched the port.
