Hi, I have updated and rooted my phone a while ago so I have forgotten a few things... I have CyanogenMod 9.1.0 and android version is 4.0.4... And now I came here and saw that there is android 4.2 and CM 10.1.... But I didn't found any information for updating between those two, there is only for coming from stock firmware. Can I just download 10.1 and install it from Clockwork mod or should I first update to 4.2 and how to do it?
Wipe data/factory reset after flashing the kernel for the new version and install the rom in cwm. All your data will be lost, but your phone should boot
Btw please ask questions in the Q&A forum

Sorry for the wrong forum...
And tnx for the reply... So no need to update to 4.2 manually, just kernel for rom and then rom?? Will it be like that for any onther custom rom?

Yes it's the same for all custom roms. Flash the kernel, boot in cwm and do the wipes, then flash the rom
Btw you could read my guide on how to install a custom rom/kernel to get more information. The link is in the "Roll up sticky thread" in the stickies in general forum :good:

this is the manual way (automatic is SEUS ).. but to ur question yes, it so:
before installing rom, check which kernel needed for this (or if its inside zip, to flash BEFORE install; via fastboot..)
if u switch between stock ics & cm builds OR between cm9 and cm10(.1) FULL WIPE IS recommended!!
if u do only a upgrade like install newest version of smae rom on ur phone u can WIPE NOTHING! (only if u get problem )
yes 1st kernel (recovery (CWM) built in) then ROM ; maybe some addons/gapps (google apps), dun
peace

Recently , i have been watching some Cyanogenmod 9 ICS 4.0.3 ROM video and it seems to be cool. Well my question is if i flash the Cyanogenmod ROM , can i re-flash the stock ROM that i had?
And is it safe to flash a custom rom?

Cool as in not overheating ???
a wipe and flash of stock rom will remove custom rom .
Root and custom roms void warranty and have a slight risk of bricking the phone .
But are usually recoverable .
You need to read the faqs and guides and understand the CM9 instuctions first .

to flash cynogen rom first u have 2 root ur phone please find the thread in original devlopment section regarding the same
u can reflash ur stock rom by dwnld the releavant .tar file adn flash the same thru odin
You can re-flash the stock rom, but just be sure to know which one is your stock rom. Go to settings, about phone and record the info there to be safe. Also back up your current rom using CWM.
There are always some risk in flashing a rom. Some people dont read instructions and cause problems on their phone, some people flash a rom not built for their phone (i9100 VS i9100G), etc.
Yeah i have rooted my device with cf-root. Thanks guys , i'll read some guides about cyanogenmod and flash it.
If your are currently on GB stock rom, Cyanogenmod developer recommends to install ICS bootloaded first,
You should be able to reflash your Stock ROM veriosn from ODIN, as well as custom roms from CWM...
What is bootload? o.o
My current firmware is ICS LP7

No they say to have below some specific ics boot loader, no mention of upgrading your gb boot loader, unless they changed it.
Plus I yet to had any issues with the latest ics or gb bootloaders..

I think he meant boot loader.
But since you already have ICS, you won't need it. Just take the latest CM9 nightly (or ROM based off it), and flash (you'll have to wipe cache data and dalvik too eventually). Make sure you make a full backup of your current stock ROM through CWM as well.

I refer this guide actually : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20841817&postcount=1
I dont know its outdated,
as others are sharing their experiance that you could flash CM9 straight away from your CWM since you are already on LP7 with ICS Bootloader.....
I don't get it... What is a bootloader?. I mean when i flashed with ICS LP7 i didn't put a file on bootloader. I just loaded the PDA .tar file and flashed it..
Soo that means that i have to reflash the stock rom with bootloader?

I dont know the ICS package you flashed had an ICS Bootloader already...
I just gave you the link for Original CM9 developers guide...
Just wait for others recommendation who have already flsahed CM9 from CWM....
Hmm thanks . But i have read in the guide that i can flash it with odin , do i still need the bootloader?

I just want to install Philz CMW6 on my I9100G so I can install a kitkat custom ROM; I have been facing problems with this, I tried many ROMs ( CM11 unofficial, SuperNexus, SlimRom, OmniROM .. ) but I failed everytime, I realized that my CWM was not suitable. So I started looking for it I found a good thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201860 after installing the CWM it goes right installing ROMs but got stuck into bootloop.
So, if someone can give me the .tar.md5 file I can flash using Odin or maybe another thing to take care of.
Thank you
PS: I had CM 10.2
Running official stock ROM : JB 4.1.2

Try this steps:
1. Use the method in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2365701) to flash JB stock + root. note that it's better to flash the kernel via recovery after it's on your external sd-card or sideload with adb. This way you don't get the triangle warning and no binary count.
2. Download the kitkat compatible CWM from here: (http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS2/recovery/CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.zip)
3. Flash the CWM and reboot to recovery (advanced -> reboot recovery)
4. Flash your Kitkat rom (with all the necessary wipes of course )

I tried this but I got stuck on boot again, and knowing that the CWM that you gived don't work :/ ( my model is I9100G I think that this is the reason ).
I have read somewhere that maybe the wipe data / factory reset is the source of problem. I am not sure where I am doing wrong
thanks

And I really love to try this CyanogenMod 11.0 NIGHTLY since it's very similar to KItkat 4.4,but when I followed the steps that have mentioned in the tread, it gives me an error in the CMW installing the ROM step.
So I would be much grateful if any of you can put all the steps,even the small details of how to install this ROM, With the kernal installation.
Currently I'm running Stock Jellybean 4.1.2 with stock kernal..
Thanks.

At what step did you stuck on? Do you flash the kernel first or you directly flash the rom?

First unlock your bootloader. Then flash the boot.img included in the rom. Boot to cwm by pressing power button when coloured led show up. Wipe data n flash the rom

1- If you are asking about "how to install a 4.4 custom ROM for your i9100, you need CWM 6.0.4.6 or 6.0.4.7, and the recovery can do the rest for you in terms of flashing and all.
2- If you are looking for a KitKat Compatible recovery, I would rather advise you doing some searching or simply googling "CWM-6.0.4.7-I9100.zip" and downloading it to your SD card in order to flash it.
However, the only way to install the new Kitkat based firmwares for the i9100 imply you to use the latest CWM (or TWRP latest) in order to have support for metadata, and if I didn't answer your question, simply be more specific (your current ROM, OS version, Kernel... etc)
