it's my first time to write something and i m even good at English. well, long story short. i've flashed several Wanam rom since the ics and recently when i flashed the Wanam v3.0, i find something wrong that every time i use CWM, it always reminds me like the pic shows, so i came here for help, what should i do now?View attachment 1311680
What CWM are you using? It only works with the CWM chainfire has provided in his CF-root package.
Requires CF Root version 5 to work with CWM manager from original dev section .

CWM is not compatible with Jelly Bean regardless of which recovery you have.
I still have chainfires CWM recovery anf get the same error because I'm running a JB rom.

thanks, now i know whats the problem since i m running JB too
I had the problem also - I now use CF-Root and ROM Manager - at least I think I still use CF-Root - with Mobile Odin it re-roots, adds SuperSU and itself into the ROM I flash. A new ROM usually gets a message from Odin about needing to download something to let it flash my device that is about 6MB so I guessed that is CF-Root.
With ROM Manager you can flash CWM, restart into Recovery without bothering with the 3 finger salute, (Vol-Up+Menu+Power) and also flash CWM Touch - meaning you can use the touch screen in recovery instead of all those key presses. I haven't gone Premium on RM yet but I am planning to...
Hi,
This is my first post so i apologise if its in the wrong place. I have been running ICS 4.0.3 for quite some time and decided it was time to try a different ROM. I installed AOKP 4.1.1, gapps_jb_signed with Siyah kernel S2.4.1.5 ( i think). After a few days it kept hanging etc and switching off as i would expect a build in development to do. Anyway i flashed a new kernal to change the look (dark demonoid or something like that) and then rebooted. My phone was now properly bricked like i'd never seen before and would'nt even go into recovery mode. After a day or two of trying everything I could to get it to at least boot i flashed Siyah kernel knowing that it had a dual boot option. Low and behold it worked but only in the 2nd ROM mode where i was able to restore my old ICS 4.0.3 from Nandroid backup. The problem I have now is that when i try to do a factory restore/data wipe from within CWM it gets stuck at the data wipe point and eventually shuts down.
I have tried mounting and unmounting emmc,eft,system, data etc and wiping clean everything but to no avail.
When i try to restore the nandroid backup onto the 1st ROM partition it hangs when installing data and I have also tried reformating the data from within the dual boot options of siyah kernel. Nothing seems to work. Have i fried the chip or something? or am i just missing a procedure. My phone works but only if i keep it on siyah kernel and boot into the 2nd ROM option where i have ICS installed..
Any help would be appreciated.

hi mate.can you please mention which roms you were using in dual boot?well yo be honest dual boot ain't a good idea.if you would ha e asked me.i would have recommented you not to do dual boot itch.anyways,coming to the issue.how did you try to flash rom while you got brick?which kernel you had?

You were trying to change the look by flashing a kernel? I'm sorry, but that doesn't make sense. Also you really need to know which ROMs and kernel version you're on. There are ROMs compatible with siyah 4.1.5 and ROMs which are not.
Mention all (correct) details of your roms used and the kernel you're on. Maybe there's a solution there and someone will be able to point out if you've been doing something wrong. Dual boot is perfectly safe. I've been using siyah+ dual boot ever since the day I first rooted my phone and never had a problem.

SGS2 Bricked on ROM 1 after downgrading from JB 4.1.1
Hi,
Sorry if i'm using the wrong terminology. If you hadn't guessed im pretty new to rooting etc and thought that changing the kernel also changed the theme/appearance. Anyway im currently running the following:See attachment.This only boots up on the 2nd ROM option. I cannot boot anything on the default 1st ROM and cannot even do a factory data wipe reset of the 1st ROM as CWM just hangs.

My advice to you would be this:
1. Boot into recovery.
2. FORMAT cache, system, data and internal storage.
3. Boot into Download mode.
4. Flash an "all in one" OFFICIAL 4.0.3 firmware package using Odin. Place this in the PDA section and do not touch anything else.
5. Once it's finished flashing your device should restart and you should be good to go. With a clean, stock firmware.
Let me know if you have trouble

Hi, Thanks for your help. I tried the above but when formating data it just hung and then eventually rebooted. I flashed the stock ROM anyway and now it just hangs at the Galaxy SII start screen, i even tried flashing it twice but that didn't help. I have also tried doing a factory data wipe from within the stock recovery after the flash but this still hangs and never completes. Is there a way of formating the data on the phone from within windows using a terminal emulator or something like that?. I have ROM Toolbox Pro on the device which has a terminal emulator as well if thats any good. For now i'll have to restore my nandroid backup I made this morning. mick

Hi, Sorry for the delay in answering i have been away for a couple of days. I flashed a stock rom with odin and it flashed OK and I got a green pass but when my android reboots it gets stuck half way through the install and then crashes and then never gets past the galaxy logo boot screen. I think the kernel must install OK though as after flashing the stock ROM i lost my dual boot option and the phone was bricked again. The only way i can get it working again is to enter stock recovery and install CWM zip, then install superroot & busy box and then flash siyah. This then gives me the dual boot option in CWM recovery where I can restore from nandroid and reboot into the 2nd rom. The problem only happens when i am trying to install a rom in ROM 1 slot (default) on siyah. Whatever ROM it is it never gets past the data part of the install.
Ok before we start, I have looked and tried everything I can find so I will post what I have done after I post my issue. (I know I'm new but I've been using this site a lot lately I just never signed up)
Alright.
My S2 gt-i9100 running ICS 4.0.3 XXLPB
I can root it with cf mod, no problem and confirmed that the root is working properly.
I use CWM recovery. Every single time I've tried to flashboot a custome rom, from Res Remix to straight up cm10 to other jelly bean mods, all the "top" mods suggested in articles, though it says successful, It always, always gets stuck on the Galaxy s2 screen with the yellow triangle. It does not go black, it just stays on that screen, I've left it for as long as 2 hours and it does not do anything and does not let me back into recovery mode. (download mode yes)
I have, multiple times, re-installed stock rom, re-rooted etc...
cleared cache and davik cache, factory reset and format system (prior to flashing the custome roms and sometimes right after as some suggest)
I even tried a complete wipe of the sd card, system, then reflashed stock rom. It always works to return to stock rom and to root it, but nothing else. It seems every solution I find on this site, and many others are point to the above things I have tried all with a slight variety. I have tried many different custom roms,
I'm lost what to do next? I can't find any other information, my binary count is up to 18 now and none of it has worked.
Which kernel are you using?

I'm sorry, I thought I mentioned all the info I had.
My current kernel version for ICS is 3.0.15-I9100XXLPB
The kernels I have tried when booting res remix are both Dormanx(sp?) and CM10.1, also tried cm10.1 with another rom.
Sorry I added info, not sure which one you wanted

1) re- install stock ICS 4.0.3 rom vide ODIn.
2) use the tar file of siyah kernel v4.1.5 or 5.0.1 to root ur phone vide Odin.
3) now use the siyah kernel v4.1.5/5.0.1 recovery to flash any custom rom of ur choice by fallowing the install instruction of the same carefully

ohh, yes the Siyah kernel, I failed to mention that i tried rooting using the siyah kernel early on and it would get stuck on the boot screen and even ICS wouldn't work. now on the other hand, this was one of my early attempts and i've tried everything else twice so I will try this option again and get back thanks
I have now tried to boot kernel Siyah 5.0.1 twice and it gets stuck on the kernel boot screen after the samsung s2 screen (the one with the yellow triangle) The screen is a ying-yang symbol with pink/purple lighting. I have left it on for 10 minutes and it stays on that screen. I have removed the battery and put it back in and now it doesn't even get past the s2 bootup screen, I left it for a couple minutes, still nothing. Reboot the phone again and now it's in Kernel Panic Upload Mode... Going back to stock rom. I'll try to find a 4.1.5 siyah kernel and try that one and see if it does anything different.

And don't forget to go in recovery mode and wipe out the dalvik memory under advanced. After wiping dalvik/clearing user data and formatting your phone, reinstall the rom of your choice (that's compatible with the phone)
you can also install siyah 6 and flash kitkat directly from recovery.
Then it would use kitkats kernel and bootup the rom
thank you guys for your replys. i will try what you suggested and get back to you
Hello,
I'm kind of a newbie at rooting phones. I've upgraded my xperia u to ICS before rooting.
I've unlocked bootloader, rooted the phone successfully & i've also flashed CWM recovery v5.5xx.
I have done a factory reset recently when my mobile was eating up a lot of ram. Does it remove or corrupt CWM? cos i'm unable to access recovery while booting the phone, i'm only getting access into recovery is by flashtool & even then, when i press "install zip from sdcard", it says mounting error & is unable to access the sd card.
What have I done wrong? Am I missing any step towards flashing a kernel or a custom rom?
please help
(I only want to speed up mobile operations, especially camera.)

I found a bat file & installed cwm recovery & its working perfectly. Thank you.
Now, all i need is a custom rom or a speedy kernel to speed up my daily operations (at least other than camera)
Please suggest me a custom rom, I've searched few of them & liked miui but someone commented that whatsapp doesn't work in that custom rom, that app is quite imp for me, so please suggest a rom which is faster than the stock rom & every essential app works.
Thanks in advance
Cheers!

ok, so if i installed miui rom or any other rom & decided that i didn't like it. To come back to stock, do I just have to go to cwm & press restore/advanced restore or do i have to do the same procedure like download the stock rom, put it into sdcard & via cwm install it?
P.S. I've already made a nandroid backup, also from titanium backup & all my data is on my sdcard

If you want to revert back to stock and you have made backup of stock from cwm than just use backup and restore to the same....
If you feel the need to install a fresh copy of stock you can download latest firmware and install using flashtool....

Hi.
I've got a few questions about issues I'm dealing with on this great, fully customisable ROM.
1. What can delay/disturb USB detection after connecting to a PC machine? Once it's detected, once is delayed, whether the USB debugging is ON or OFF, this issue still appears. Everything's going good after detection, no problem with copying files, etc., but everytime it takes mi a few minutes before I can establisha working connection. Any solutions?
2. What can cause problem with my applications syncing? It's the only ROM in which all my applications aren't downloading automaticly after flashing and setting up the account.
Beat me, I've spend a week looking for solutions, so I decided to start a thread and wait for sb to help.
My PC is Windows 8 and my CWM Recovery version is 6.0.4.6

Thanks for your reply. I solved Play Market issue with a TB. Got a new issues...
How to properly flash an Apolo kernel to my Beanstalk ROM. I've checked properly which to install I guess... I drew conclussions from what I read guess I needed one for mali v3 drivers, because Beanstalk is CM-based, so I downloaded Apolo_7.0_CM_Beta2b_Regular-TWRP.zip. I flashed it via CWM and reboot in TWRP, then flashed ROM and PA Gapps. I finished with a 3.0.64_CM CET 2014 in a kernel version, I guess that's stock kernel from ROM. When I try to flash kernal after ROM install I'm getting bootloop. What am I doing wrong?
Second issue is that I can't install newest PA Gapps mini, because I'm getting system partition free space error... Is it normal? Are those the only Gapps to install with this ROM, I mean those pinned to post: pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.2-20131215? No e.g. black Gapps?
