[Q] cant flash 4.2.2 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Hello everyone. Ive been running the AOKP 1/22 JB ROM for a little while which I believe is 4.2.1 and wanted to try some other 4.2.2 jelly bean ROMs like cm10 and nexus ROM, but every time that I try to flash it I get an error 7. I remember running into this problem before but I don't remember the solution. Does it have to do about this new MALI driver I've seen mentioned so much? What is it? Please help!
Thanks

First, this should have been posted in the Q & A section.
Second, error 7 is a common issue which you should easily be able to learn about by searching.
It means the flashing firmware is checking the buildprop on your phone for phone model (I777) and finding a mismatch.

Anytime I run into this issue, I revert to a really old backup (rooted-stock, CM, etc.) and then wipe and flash the ROM. That usually fixes it. Hopefully you have a backup that's compatible. If not, there's a thread around here that explains how to use Heimdell or something to flash a rooted-stock image that you can then use to update to the CM ROM.
It definitely can be done, and it's not too difficult. I've had to do it a time or two. Good luck!

Flash Siyah 4.3.3 kernel-> Reboot recovery-> Flash the 4.2.2 ROM zip -> You are good to go now.

If you are already on Siyah 4.3.3 then Reboot into recovery-> Wipe data/factory reset, cache, dalvik-> Format system-> Reboot recovery-> Flash the 4.2.2 ROM zip. Hope this helps.

I constantly have this problem. I download my ROM of choice, open the zip, edit the updater-script, and delete the asserts inside for get.prop

you better ask in their thread.
They have their own kernel. You can use the new siyah kernel if you want but it's not necessary

In which case i would steer well clear of a rom that is a work in progress unless you actually understand what you are doing . Judged on the question you have little knowledge of flashing and risk bricking your phone .

[ROM] [GT-I9300] CyanogenMod 10 -PREVIEW #9
Hi Guys,
Little help needed... Noob Questions
1) I have preview 7 installed but if i want to update to preview 9 do i just install zip from SD via CWM?
2) Also do i need to do full wipe like i did with initial installation or is 'Cache' and 'Dalvik' wipe ok??
3) Finally i've read something about flashing 'Kernal' but to my knowledge i've never done so (Previously Stock - CM9 - CM10)
Thank for any help in advance
Justin
1.)
Yes, u do like you did it when you installed the previous release :>
2.)
That's enough, but a factory reset is never wrong although when it's not needed
3.)
In many cases you automatically install a custom kernel when you install a custom rom, so i think you did it without knowing it
You can download kernels for an example using Omega Kitchen and install them using cwm like a romfile

rom compatibility question

Good day guys
1.Does cm10 compatible with siyah kernel?
2.is cm10 now official or beta?
3.can i just use the backup from cwm if i want to restore things after i flash cm10?
4.cm9 or cm10? (Better)
5.if i flash custom rom does it unroot my phone and remove cwm options?

1. Not sure if its been updated... you could ask or check in the respective thread.
2. Official Nightlies just dropped for select devices.. check dev section.
3. Yes
4 Neither.. CM9 based on ICS, CM10 based on JB.. Both are awesome and JB is the newest shiz so... (and actually CM9 may have more features right now)
5. 99% of the time no. Unless you flash a ROM w/ Odin that does not have root or CWM. But- most, if not all, the custom ROMs you find here will have root and CWM. Just look at the ROM features before flashing!

Answer for 1. is YES it's compatible with CM10. Just look at the thread title of siyah kernel.

1. Yes siyah supports cm10. Says so in the title. Always read the change logs for important info
2. It's in beta sort of. They're releasing previews that are quite usable. I'm using it atm. Only annoying bug is the memory leak that can easily be solved by rebooting the phone. 3. Restore only app apks, not phone settings. Restore app data at your own risk.
4. Depends on if you're looking for stability. CM9 is stable but I like JB and I'm going to be sticking with CM10
5. No it doesn't. Flashing a stock rom with stock kernel will unroot it. Custom roms will not

Go to the Original Development section and get CM9 from there. Its good for you to navigate around the site and get comfortable where stuff is. In regards to the bootani, in my experience you change this by modifying /system/media/bootanimation.zip. You can try swapping the new bootanimation.zip with the old bootani.zip and see if that works. But I've never flashed a .zip to change the bootani.. but to be fair its been a long time since I've had any desire to change the bootanimation

Lol.. sorry. Like I said you need to get comfortable with this site and not just ask for links.. if you can't find em sure, but you need to try. You can do it two ways- on your PC: at the XDA home page you'll see 2 search boxes near the top and to the right. The box that says "find your device" ..type your phone in there and choose it when the option comes up. Then scroll down.. bam- OG Dev Forum! Or download the XDA app and find your device that way-
I hope you find it but I'm confident you will

He didnt say it was. Even so, the rom was "released" to testers, and "leaked" to public. Only final is released to public.

This to me seems that Ben101 says "Stock jelly bean is still not released", which krayndr then declares "False!"
I work in software; I differentiate between a leak and a release. "Released to testers" is not a release. We send many builds to testers before we have a release candidate.

Not sure why you're directing this question to me; is it because I said I work in software? That doesn't mean I work in developing software specifically for this device, or even for Samsung devices in general...
But if you're having issue with a leaked firmware, doesn't it make sense to go back to a released firmware?

yes, u can do So ma8
but why we prefer GB > ICS > JB is that ur installation goes smooth without any issue and also rooting ICS is much easier (since lot of option's to do so) rather with GB.
but the choice is urs
PS- regarding EMMC bug it comes only with the stock kernel of ICS 4.0.4, while ICS 4.0.3 is safe from the same(EMMC bug)

Hi
First of all you need to root the phone. The best way to do that would be to flash cf-root compatible with your rom version. You can find exactly what your build is by checking settings > about phone
Find compatible cf-root kernel and put it in PDA in odin and flash... there are lot's of guides out there - won't be hard to find
Second, before you go further you need yoo updete your bootloader. So either flash ICS stock through odin (not recommended cause will unroot again) or flash bootloader through odin. Again there are proper guides for that...
Then you can upgrade to whatever you want...
Keep in mind that emmc cap bug does not exist in GB kernels. so you can use the CWM recovery in cf-root kernels for GB rather safely.
If you update to stock ICS then you need to keep an eye what kernel you're using to wipe data. Siyah and dorimanx are safe and I always use them.
Loads of roms out there, pure aosp, cm based, aokp based and the leaked sammy rom. Personally checked alot of each first three and also several versions of the leaked one... All good.
Word of edvice - do read more on those things. No matter how much expirience people who answer threads like that have, you'll never substitute your own knowledge and expirience.
Go on and root and enjoy the android world, mate. Best of luck

rom advice (wifes phone)

this is my wifes phone (I have a Note) I want to know what rom I can go to that is very stable , prefer ics :
Samsung SGH-I777
2.3.6
I777UCKK6
2.3.35.14
GINGERBREAD.UCKK6
sorry but I dont generally mess with her phone , she does have root and cwm touch 5.5.0.4 . There seems to be a wifi problem it turns on and then off , never sticking , I suppose wiping all might help , I hate seeming naive but when I mess with my own phone its all a chance , I dont want to just do that with hers!
There are a lot of stable roms. Do you want touchwiz based or AOSP based? I don't have an opinion on AOSP roms because I've barely used any of them.
For Samsung based roms, Shoman94's roms are very stable and popular. That's what I use as my daily driver. For ICS, use SHOstock2, but for the latest JB use SHOstock3.

When you flash a new ROM you will have to wipe. Also that's caused by using a foreign kernel aka one from galaxys2root.com

If I remember correctly, I think that version of the Siyah kernel was put out by zedomax on GalaxyS2Root website. That kernel combined with UCKK6 was always a problem. In fact, that package was always a problem.
Anyway, the kernel has ClockworkMod Recovery. You should decide on a good rom, as discussed above, download the zip file and use usb to transfer it to the sdcard on the phone, then boot into recovery, perform a wipe data/factory reset, and flash the rom. It doesn't matter that you are on Gingerbread right now. You can flash either an ICS or JellyBean rom because the package will contain the complete system and kernel and modem, everything.
---------- Post added at 07:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:08 PM ----------
Enter recovery by holding down all three of vol + vol - and power buttons continuously until it boots into recovery. If it won't boot into recovery, then it might be a bad flash.
Thank you, I got the siyah kernel from a thread here,when I first got the phone (off ebay )it did in fact have the wrong kernel,I used entropy flash back to get back,I guess I did something else,but I will use one of the roms you mentioned ,glad we have you here ,I've been messing with wp7 the last few years and finally getting back to android (cept been playing with boot loaders in a500)

It is exactly that, a counter, and the only purpose of it as far as we know is warranty protection, so I would say no, it's not important. On the other hand, most folks don't like the splash screen with the yellow triangle, but you can remove that easily enough if you still get it on boot.

No. You also need to install a custom kernel that contains ClockworkMod Recovery. Please read through the guide "How to install custom firmware without incrementing the flash counter" (link in sig) because it will help you see how things fit together.
Thank you very much creepy ,your page is awesome and your advice the shostock rom is great

Reinstall CM10.2 from CM11 on GT-I9100G

Hi,
Can anybody let me know on how to downgrade my GT-I9100G device from CM11 to CM10.2 ?.
I upgraded to CM11 unofficial build, but then found lots of bugs and so want to revert back to CM10.2
Thanks.

Thanks, doesn't seem like it was so simple. I had tried that many a times before posting this on to the forum. When I try to install CM10.2 again through CWM, it errors out with (Status 7) error. I did a Wipe/Factory Data Reset, Wipe Dalvik Cache and format system. Tried again but the same error re-appeared (status 7).
So I had to reinstall CM11 and GAPPS for CM11 again to make the phone work with some old bugs again . Camera not working, lag in screen rotation, stock browser not working etc.,
Thanks

status 7 it's cause there's something wrong on the updater script in the Rom build, check the Rom Thread that you've download

Thanks, not sure on what the issue with the Rom could be. I have rooted the device and then installed Blazing Kernel V3 with CWM 6.
Before I decided to upgrade my phone to experimental CM11, I used to apply all CM10.2 Nightlies without any issues.
I have tried to install even CM10.1 stable release through CWM v.6 and the same error comes up.
Further, I have always downloaded ROM's from download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=i9100g or through the CMupdater in the phone.
Can you please let me know, what version of Blazing Kernel should I using on GT-i9100G and how do I flash it safely without fearing of the "Sleep of death" happening.
Thank you.
