[Q] Clockworkmod for jellybean 4.1.2 samsung G S2 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Forum,
Today I rooted my Samsung Galixy S 2 with Jellybean 2.1.4. I now want to install a custom ROM. I read that the easiest way to do is my flashing ClockWorkMod on my phone wich makes it easy to switch to custom roms. But i simply cant find a matching CWM for Jellybean 2.1.4 I9100XXLS8. I currently have 3.0.31-Jeboo_Kernel_v1.2a as my rooted kernel, dont know if that makes any defference in this.
Hope someone can help me out here:fingers-crossed:
Thanks!

I've never tried Jeboo kernel.
Try flashing Philz, reboot into recovery and then flash your rom.
Oh. It's Jelly Bean 4.1.2.

Funny thing is,.. I really am!

If you want to flash a custom rom, then it doesnt really matter which kernel you pick.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877270
Then pick the kernel for you version or just pick the latest version. I would go for the latest and if that doesnt work the one that matches your version.
Make sure you pick the .tar.md5 and not the .zip (because if you got no custom recovery you cant flash .zip)

Thanks, I installed PhilZ-cwm6 and it works. I Tried to make a backup and install a new ROM with it but then the bachup is done I cant find it anymore. I think I have to instal the ROMs with aroma file manager? Anaways it doesnt find the ROMs on my external SD. Any ideas? Maybe im just doing it wrong..
Thanks

CWM Wont Flash Kernel!

Hi there, i just installed the new neatrom full 4.1 that came out on the 23 of this month i wanted to update to another kernel witch is the SiyahKernel v6.0b4 i have no idea if that one is the best but i do see some people with it, im hoping its best for battery life on the phone too.
The thing is i open CWM flash a new kernel and then select it but then it says "kernel failed, no zImage was found"
any ideas?
Install tar version via odin, or look after patched zip version here on xda.
I noticed you have Neatrom lite is it better for battery life? thats actually what i am looking for, something that will last me more then a day.

Re-download the zip and try again. Could be corrupted which is why its not able to grab files from it.
Alternative simply flash the .tar version in download mode via ODIN.
Download an old dorimanx or siyah(pre new jelly bean) flash that, reboot recovery (under advanced) flash siyah 6 b4 and reboot
The same thing happened to me a few days ago. On cmw in philZ kernel I can't flash siyah 6b4 from the official website.
It's possible to flash it with Odin on computer. (.tar file)
Worked for me. Now I can flash all the kernels I want on cmw.

How do you flash with Odin, i just downloaded the program.
Well i was able to flash the latest Siyah kernel but i wasnt able to flash the dorimanx kernel witch i hear is much better for battery

use that siyah kernel recovery to flash the zip file of Dori kernel ma8
or u can dwnld the .tar version of Dori kernel v7.45 from link below and flash the same using ODIN.
Dorimanx Kernel
i was able to do it in recovery mode, but dori kernel 7.43 would install but not boot in, i tried 7.44 and it worked perfectly im guessing the 7.43v is bugged.

ClockWorkMod v6.0.3.x for i9100

Dear all,
The official latest CWM release for i9100 is v5.8.3.1 (see www.clockworkmod.com). Is there an official (or fully working version) of CWM 6.0.3.x for the i9100? For e.g. T-Mobile there is a release available. Can I use this as well?
for now, I can also flash Philz kernel to get CWM v6.0.3.2, but I first want to have a separate CWM version installed. Thanks for help.

I'm also trying to install/flash latest cwm without being part of any kernel / mod. Did you have any luck with that?
Philz IS stock kernel.....no tweaks, no mods......other than CWM and root.......afaik.....if you want a (cwm + root) stock phone, philz will give you that.......
My Wife says I'm a phone geek.....
I'd have to agree.....
I don't see why I should install a kernel, even stock, when only recovery partition needs changing. In most phones there are flashable files through adb, or similar ways, to install cwm. Will it work through rom manager app?
I'm not sure about just CWM on its own. It probably does exist. Just needed to jump in quick.... DO NOT use ROM manager on an i9100. Sure-fire way to screw things up /brick.
Ps. Keith is right, the only thing different about PhilZ kernel is recovery and it's rooted. Nothing else is changed.
Sent from a galaxy far, far away
And when you add the fact that it can be flashed using the stock recovery.........
It doesn't get any easier, safer or straightforward than that. No disrespect intended, but I can't see the problem with doing it this way.......
My Wife says I'm a phone geek.....
I'd have to agree.....
You really are trying to make this as difficult as possible for yourself, aren't you ?
Take the good advice you've been given; particularly the bit about staying away from Rom Manager unless you want to find out why you don't use it with the SGS2 the hard way.
Will do that... however, I'll try to make a flashable zip (with stock recovery) of latest cwm alone, and will report back... just in case someone wants it in the future.

But then, ok, suppose i flash terra silent on android 2.3.6; later i can just flash for example, PA or Pacman rom? would this flash replace my current kernel? will i have a recovery or just stock recovery with PA or Pacman or any other ROM i flash? wont those Roms includes their kernels?
sorry im so noob on this devices, i've been flashing on nexus4, galaxy ace, etc but never needed a kernel for CWM

Hmm I think even though you have a galaxy ace, it seems that it's not the same thing as us. As you've seen with nexus devices, you've 1 separate partition for recovery, another one for kernel. Thing is with the original line of Galaxy S devices (maybe I9100 too i'm not sure), the recovery and the kernel are made into one single binary. So by that fact, if you flash a rom like PA, pacman or CM10.1-10.2, It will replace your current kernel and recovery like any other custom rom made for it. You can see daniel644's installation video to see how the process is done.
Hope this helps.

[Q] Little help flashing to cyanogen

Hey guys.
I just bought a samsung tab 2 10.1 and want to flash it to cyanogen to get the multiple users that comes with android 4.2.x
I havent flashed in a while since i updated my i9100 to 4.1.2, so i thought best to flash my i9100 to cyanogen first to try it out as my phone is already rooted. I found a few guides for installing cyanogen to my phone using cwm recovery to install from the SD card.
I remember rooting my device back when i updated it to 4.1.2 but when i tried to boot into cwm is would boot into the stock android recovery.
so i figured i needed to flash cwm recovery.
after checking all kies processes were stopped i flashed the kernel "GT-I9100_ClockworkMod-Recovery_4.0.1.4" , but the phone would not boot and hang at start screen.. as a plus side i now had access to cwm recovery from boot... ironic.
so i booted into cwm recovery thinking to install cyanogen mod as i thought maybe the rom wasn't compatible with the kernel?
but noticed that the cyanogen rom was not present on the menu in cwm recovery, must of put it in the wrong place. I was now thinking to get my phone to boot into 4.1.2 that should still be on the phone, since the current kernel wasn't working i flashed "Siyah-v5-MCM-i9100-vsync_sysfs-20130217" in hopes it would be compatible.. still no luck with it booting. but i still have access to CWM recovery.
Any thoughts on how i should proceed? if i can get cyanogen onto the SD card should i install it via CWM?
little lost at the moment. been a while since i done all this.
here is the information i noted down before i started today.
4.1.2
i9100xxls8
3.0.31-863787 [email protected] #3 smp preempt thu jan 31 12:20:07 kst 2013

Thanks for reading.

Philz kernel lss flash that through odin. Reboot to recovery, do the wipes and and reboot. 4.1.2 should boot up then. Then move custom rom to int sd and flash away. Philz installs custom cwm. Once you have flash custom rom philz will be replaced with stock custom kernel with cwm built in to it.

I'll give it a shot, is the Philz kernel you mentioned this one?;
<< 03.06.2013 - PhilZ-cwm6 v5.06.1 with CWM 6.0.3.2 based recovery >>
I'm not to sure what kernel version i need.
how would i find out this information ?
Many thanks.
Edit:
I noticed in my previous notes i made when first flashing my phone a year or so ago. The kernel i used was this;
3.0.15-I9100BGLP8-CL317471 [email protected]#3
It is now kernel version;
3.0.31-863787 [email protected] #3 smp preempt thu jan 31 12:20:07 kst 2013
which has no reference to previous kernels. but my current baseband version is: i9100xxls8
LS8 stands out in both... so would using PhilZ-cwm6-XWLSY-ORA-5.10.0.tar.md5 work on my phone?
Lss will work as it for 4.1.2 it just has newer cwm installed.tar is for odin. You could get the zip one and put on an sd card put bk in your phone and flash it like that. Make sure its zip not tar for flashing in cwm.
Thanks

By 'compatible', you mean the kernel works with many ROMs?
Philz is a stock based kernel. So it only works on stock based ROMs, and depends on the android version and the build versions (like LSS, LSJ, LSD etc). Siyah is more compatible, because it only depends on the android version (like JB, ICS or GB).
You had a bootloop before after flashing Siyah mcm kernel, because the mcm kernel supports AOSP 4.2.2 ROMs, not stock JB.

To avoid bootloops after flashing a kernel, use these tips:
1. Flash only kernels supported by your current firmware. Suppose you are running stock JB and you want to flash AOSP 4.2.2 ROM. You might be tempted to flash Siyah mcm kernel (because it supports AOSP 4.2.2). But that would end up in a bootloop as Siyah mcm doesn't support stock JB! :good:
2. Use a kernel cleaning script before flashing any kernels. :good:

Thanks for your reply, i have a few questions to try and understand.
Would i be right in saying;
When im looking to install a new kernel and/or Rom. My check list should be;
1. Kernel to phone compatability. I.e my phone is LS8 so i look for LSS/LSY/LSD soforth and so-on.
2. Kernel to Romcompatability. I.e Philz is a stock kernal hence why it works with 4.1.2 stock Rom.
So if i want to install Resurection Remixed i believe its a modified stock Rom so it should work with Philz?
As would cyanogenmod as it is modified stock?
Or is even that modified to much?
If i want to change both kernel and Rom, would it work if i installed for example siyah kernel then boot into CWM recovery and installed from there a new Rom?
Im looking to try out a few roms on my i9100, mainly Reserection remix, and other cyanogenmod clones with light modification as i enjoy the stock android experiance.
Also looking to install cyanogenmod to my p5100 tab. Flashing Philz p5100 kernal and then installing superuser through recovery and then installing cyanogenmod 10 stable version?
thanks for reading and taking the time to anwser my previous questions.
Many thanks

Don't worry, things can be a bit hard to digest at first.
Let me make it easier:
1. U are currently using a stock or custom ROM, but you want to change the kernel (without any plans to flash a new ROM). In this case, you need to select a kernel that is compatible with your current ROM.
2. U are on a stock ROM, and you need to flash a custom ROM. You want to flash a kernel to root it and install CWM (to enable u to flash a new ROM). In this case also, u should flash a kernel that supports your current stock ROM.
3. U are on a custom ROM, and you want to try another custom ROM (which may require another kernel to support it). In this case, you DON'T need to flash a new kernel that will support ur new ROM. You can flash the new ROM directly. All custom ROMs come with their own supported kernels bundled in the ROM. So, after flashing the new ROM, your current kernel will be REPLACED by a supported one from the new ROM.
Better?

So my breakdown would be I'm using a Stock ROM with Philz kernel rooted and CWM. I want to Install Resurrection Remix which is a 4.2.x ROM, Philz is a 4.1.x Kernel so i need to install a new kernel to support Resurrection Remix? or would that come with its own Kernel?
And for my tablet. I flash Philz kernel and install superuser to root the device. so now its stock Rom with Philz kernel. So when i install Cyanogenmod Rom it will install its own Kernel or do i also need to install a Kernel that supports 4.2.x?
Or is it Firmware version based Kernel updates that happen when you install and new custom ROM?
i.e Running 4.1.x kernel and installing a 4.1.x Custom ROM will update the kernel, but installing a 4.2.x ROM will not?
vice versa Running a 4.2.x kernel and installing a 4.2.x ROM will update the kernel, but installing a 4.1.x ROM will not?
Kind Regards, I appreciate your time for reading my mind numbing questions.

For you i9100 just flash the rom using philz cmw recovery and once its done you will have a custom rom with custom cm kernel which is rooted and has cwm with it. I would say to format system ,data, cache and preload before you flash it using philz recovery and make sure the rom and gapps is on int sd card were you can find it.
As for the tablet make sure philz is compatible with that tablet first!! Dont just flash it on that thinking because its 4.1.2 it will work.
Btw with philz also come with root access too.

No, you don't need to install a new kernel, because flashing RR will flash a compatible kernel (included in the ROM) by itself. :good:

Don't overcomplicate stuff mate. When you flash a ROM, the kernel contained in the ROM will be replace your current kernel. Simple.
Thanks a lot!!!
I installed RR to my i9100 and cm10.1 to my p5100.
I'm having a little trouble with i9100 device though, I keep getting random sim locks on the device.. Not sure what could be causing it. It didn't happen on stock 4.1.2.
The devices will be locked and when I wake it I get prompted for the sim lock code. I now have the sim lock on my phone deactivated but I'm fearful that even thought I am not getting prompted for the sim code, the sim could be de-activated while the phone is in sleep thus not connect to the network?
Could be a loss of signal activate a security feature of the sim. Or a problem with the kernel?
Kind regards.
Many many thanks for all your advice into helping me understand a little better.

If you're sim locked, then you want the app 'Galaxsim unlock'. Search for the xda thread, the OP is spocky12 if that helps you find it. It won't be kernel related. And, test it for yourself. See if you get messages /calls / push notifications while your screen is off & phone is sleeping.
Sent from a galaxy far, far away
The i9100 was originally sim locked, but I paid someone to unlock it, once I got the phone back from him "unlocking" it. It was apparent that he has flashed the device with a new kernel and ROM in order to unlock it... Not to sure of the process. A couple months later I flashed 4.1.2 as it wasn't available as a update on the ROM he installed. The phone re-sim locked and I downloaded the app you mentioned and unlocked the phone successfully, been happily using it up until I installed RR. Now I'm suffering from random pin locks. The phone connects to the network and functions perfectly, apart from said sim locks.
My only fear is missing important calls if this lock is causing network disconnections. Can I log network functions and connectivity to see what's causing it?

Firstly: Please give more detailed information (which kernel do you use, which ROM did you use before the problem occurred?)
Secondly: It is possible that you can't acess recovery mode anymore when flashing new updates. Happens with CM 10.2 OTA Update right now. The solution would be to flash a new recovery using Heimdall (Open-Source ODIN alternative) [Didn't try that, but should theoretically work] or, mor simple, a new kernel. Dorimany v9.34 is suited perfectly for that. Download here: http://dorimanx.shine.sk/ .

You installed a Kernel while rooting your phone: Its the .tar that you have to put into the PDA section in ODIN. There are Kernels with .tar and .zip: .tar files are only flashable using Odin while .zip files are flashed using the recovery just like you flash ROMs. I guess your Kernel is a custom CM Kernel (CM for Cyanogen Mod). Carbon ROM is probably based on CM. There is currently no other workaround to get your recovery back then flashing a new kernel/recovery. I am currently working on an easy workaround for this problem, but it will take a while.
Dorimanx is downloadable here http://dorimanx.shine.sk/ and should be compatible: Just flash it like you did when rooting your phone in the beginning, just with Dorimanx .tar in PDA. Recovery should work again afterwards.
My mistake: It's Dorimanx, not Dorimany
Hit Thanks and just ask if you need additional help!

You installed a Kernel while rooting your phone: Its the .tar that you have to put into the PDA section in ODIN. There are Kernels with .tar and .zip: .tar files are only flashable using Odin while .zip files are flashed using the recovery just like you flash ROMs. I guess your Kernel is a custom CM Kernel (CM for Cyanogen Mod).

Yeah, I remember.. it was siyah kernel.
So in your opinion I should flash Dorimanx by Odin then? No other way to fix isnt it? and.. in dorimanx page, which one of all them should I download?

1. Yes you should
2. Not right now, maybe in the future, flashing recovery.img using Heimdall would probably help, but I didn't try it myself and using Heimdall is quite complex
3. In General: The newest .tar (9.34/8.34) as you can't use .zip files
When you want to use Stock Samsung ROM: Version 8
When you want to use CM/AOKP based ROM: Version 9
Remember: No ICS Support!

Ok.
But every aosp rom, like Carbon PA and these are based either in AOKP or CM, isnt it?
The newest one is 9/39, is that the one?

CM & AOKP are actually based on AOSP, so Yes, every AOSP ROM should work.

I did what you said and after installing Carbon Rom again recovery is gone.. so I suposse it is Carbon problem. I will do it again and install a different rom

I agree, the problem results of the ROM: But you have to flash dorimanx after carbon because carbon replaces the current kernel with its own CM custom Kernel. It should work just fine with carbon when it's flashed after installing carbon.
