Samsung galaxy s2 stuck at boot screen - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys I am using a Samsung galaxy s2 gt i9100 running jelly bean 4.1.2 stock xwlst firmware and i rooted my phone using the one click root using exploits. I am all new to this rooting process and so i installed titanium backup and i was trying to remove playstore inorder to install modded play store and all of a sudden my device rebooted and now its stuck with the boot screen. So i tried to flash canogenmod 10.2 for the first time and used clock work mod recovery. I wiped my memory cleared the cache(couldnt find dalvik cache and the advanced menu either) and applied the latest cyanogen mod 20130827 from the cyanogenmod.org using my external sdcard. It displayed assert failed )==gti9100t status 7 error. I can assure you that i downloaded the international version of the cyanogenmod and not any other variant. Kindly help me with a solution or a link to the correct cyanogenmod rom package. Thank you. Looking forward to an earlier response sorry if i had posted in a wrong section. i am new to the forum

so it doesnt matter what type of kernel we are using??
and now i tried flashing a paranoid rom and it is returning E:signature verification failed. please help me with something. Thank you

the kernel will flash with new ROM so the old kernel isn't important, it's delete in flash process.
I've the same problem whit cwmr6, but using cwmr 5.5 it seems resolved.

is there anything with you to explain the problem exactly mate? error 6 is not something i've heard about till now.
A guess either a bad download or user error .
Not enough information posted so its a guess .
Did you costumize/edited or removed/added files on the ROM?

Your problem is that you don't have a custom recovery like cwm. For installing custom rom, and for the case of 4.4 you need cwm 6.0.4.4!
Try this.
Update CWM to version 6.0.4.5. Alternatively, use PhilZ Touch by Phil3759. His link is...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002953
Latest version is 6.00.8
Then get Gapps (for 4.4) from here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942
Flash CWM/PhilZ Touch
Boot into CWM/PhilZ Touch Recovery
Wipe
Flash ROM
Flash GAPPS
Reboot and bob's ur uncle...
Hope it helps.

[Q] Install Philz cwm6 on I9100G

Hii!! :laugh:
I hope I am not making an error by posting here, I am a little new to here so be king please :angel:
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

Almost every kernel dev provides a .tar version of his kernel for initial rooting / custom recovery install.
Per example apolo, gustavo and dorimanx.
Grab one of these, flash trough Odin and start from there.
Hint, you need at least CWM 6.0.45 for installing cm11.

[Q] Flashing error - updater binary

Hello developers or forum crossing guys.
I got flashing problems with any ROM.
Tried to use 6.0.3.6 CWM Touch or latest TWRP and PhilZ touch too.
I am still gotting status 7 - cant execute updater binary when flashing any ROM.
I am stock,rooted and running TWRP.
I tried to flash - CM 11/12, Archidroid or Blekota S5 Lite ROM, no success on anything.
Still same error, that makes me mad
Flashing recoveries/kernels with no problem.
Tried also remove the assert line, no success too.
So, my wish.
Anyone that could help me fix that? Thanks.

You need to update to the latest recovery. That error is thrown out when the recovery is to old to flash kitkat or higher.
Are you sure its the latest twrp? What version was it?
TWRP is really latest,2.8.1.0.
Trying to flash lollipop or KK.
PhilZ touch was latest too.

Status 7 error usually means outdated recovery try another recovery like Twrp or a newer version.

Strange Also I take it that you mean you have tried to alter the updater script when you modified the roms?
I would suggest to flash back to stock with Odin and start again and see if that helps sorry I can't be of much more help.

ive tried that for lots of times , so now im using this cm10.2 its working fine but i want to try a custom rom
anyway thanks for help mate
The recovery version must be the culprit. Why dont you install twrp from playstore? There's an app called TWTP manager. After installing twrp dont let the app reboot for you. Reboot it first then reboot into recovery the second time. Then try to install another rom
