Siyah - Dual Boot - Black Screen? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Not sure if i'm doing something wrong, essentially when i try to dual boot with siyah kernel 5.0.1 i just get black screen, if i boot my stock ICS it's fine, i've tried a few ROM's (all JB) and they all just black screen when trying to boot, turning off and back on and going into primary is fine - am i missing anything obvious?

yes you are missing the reading part about it in the siyah thread..
JB roms are not supported yet

well if its the early JB 4.1 based rom u can Dual boot using siyah 5.0.1, if its newer than that (4.1.2>4.2.1>4.2.2) then siyah v5.0.1 will not support the same, and u will get black screen on boot

That may be the issue, Its CyanogenMod 10.1 i'm trying which i assume is based on 4.1.2 or earlier, out of curiosity is it just a dualboot scenario that is unsupported. I.E. if i flashed with CM10.1 just on its own with siyah 5.0.1 it would work?

for cm10.1 u should use the latest siyah v6.0b5 since siyah v5.0.1 will not be able to boot CM10.1 as its based on android 4.2.1 for u

Do remember that CM10.1 isn't fully supported by Siyah v6.0b5 for now and u might face issues.
Better to install CM10.1 and stay with the stock Cm10.1 kernel that comes with it to get better results

Apologies, Won't CM 10.1 just run on top of the siyah kernel? or by flashing to it will it replace the kernel with its own
I'm not ultimately loyal to a kernel, i just want to run jelly bean on my S2
Thanks

[Q] SlimBean Compatible Kernels?

Hello Mates!
I have got a "small" problem. I use Slim Bean Stable 1.0 with android 4.2.1. I was searching for a good kernel for this rom, but siyah kernel has made a brick of my SII. I have successfully unbricked it, but I would like to know, if there are compatible kernels with Slim Bean! Please tell me, if you know any working kernels for this rom.
Thanks

Either he tried flashing a compatible kernel,
Or he re-flashed the rom,
Or he flashed stock using Odin.

Im currently trying to find a solution/answer to this myself
My friend has an s2 and no matter what kernel or version he tries the same problem results.
Done all the correct procedures for ROM gapps and kernel flashes, tried reboots and re flashes but the black screen appears after the kernel boot picture.

and if i find one i will tell you
If you are on CM 10.1 , which is android 4.2.2 , siyah kernel dosent support it. Try dormanix or the CM kernel.

[Q] First time rooting phone Q about kernels.

So im want to root and try out some different roms.
My question is, is it ok for a beginner to start out using kernels such as Siyah ? I ask because i cant find a cf-root for jellybean.
And i have read the siyah thread and as i understand it, it supports most rom types for the SGS2, but to double check will it definitely support the android 4.2.2?
Big thanks for any help.
Read more threads
Look for philz kernel mate.

4.2.2? Or 4.1.2?
Look up the Build Number in ur phone's 'Settings - About Device'.
It should be a 5 letter word (like XXLSD).
Check for a Philz kernel for that build.

I think syiah vsync will but u have to read more about it ,why u dnt try dorimanx 8+(stock jb 4.1.2) its modified syiah . But if u r on stock jb how asnw said try philz its basicly cf for jb. If u flash cm10.1 4.2.2 it come with cm kernel most the time. Good luck
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Big up dorimanx.
8. Is for ics and jb
9. Is for cm aokp roms.
Don't mix or boot loop will happen. Efs bk up would be good after root before move to custom rom. You need to read not as easy as it looks. No one wants a paper weight do they

Phone doesn't reboot after flashing Siyah Kernel 5.0.1

My phone won't reboot after flashing Siyah Kernel 5.0.1 with Mobile Odin. The Samsung logo and what I assume is a Siyah logo appears, but no matter what I try to get into (download/recovery/normal) it doesn't work. What is wrong? o;
Edit: I have a GT-I9100T on rooted stock 4.1.2 ROM and stock recovery btw.
Reflash rom it will restore stock kernel. What rom you on?
Edit: I9100 t. This for I9100.

Managed to get into recovery and download mode after a few minutes and flashed custom ROM, never been so glad to see the samsung start up logo. Ahh, that's the end of me messing with my phone...going to stick to stock ROM and kernel.
Probably best.

Happy for you mate!
I will give a probable explanation as to what happened:
Siyah v5.0.1 supports AOSP JB 4.1.2, but not stock JB 4.1.2! That's why ur phone didn't boot! You should have flashed v6.0b5.

Need to flash a new kernel

Hey guys,
I recently rooted my galaxy s2 with jeboo kernel and installed jelly bam rom v7.6 Android 4.2.2. Everything is working fine. But I found out my kernel doesn't support few overclocking apps.
I want to flash siyah kernel v6 now. I prefer Odin method. Can I flash a kernel in the same way now? Does it affect my rom? Do I need to back up rom and apps and re install them after installing a new kernel? Is siyah jelly bean rom compatible with all custom roms?
And which is the best kernel considering overall features?
Thanks

U can try the latest Dorimanx Kernel which does support OC (overclocking) or UV (undervolting) for u

Why odin? Since u already have custom recovery, flash it using CWM.
Flashing a kernel will affect ur rom, but not ur apps or data. So u do not need to re-install rom or apps. But a backup is always recommended.
If the kernel is not compatible with ur rom, you may get stuck in a bootloop. Siyah has different versions for different roms. v6 is not completely supported for 4.2.2 roms. Choose Siyah mcm v5 vsync kernel or go for Dorimanx.
To ensure a clean install, use a kernel cleaning script before flashing the new kernel.
