[Q] Problem with siyah 6.0b4 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Everytime I do factory reset, the phone boots up, then goes to the first menu where you choose your language, I choose "english" and the phone restarts.In order to fix it I either have to flash a rom or flash other kernel, like siyah 6.0b5.It happens with 3 different realeases of JB.Now, I don't mind using the newer version of siyah, but it doesn't allow me to undervolt some frequencies like 100/300/400/600/700/900Mhz..At least is there a way to enable them somehow?
Have you had this problem?

Hi,i've been with dori before,it's very good.I use CPU ADJUSTER,but dori keeps on disabling my settings and returning to default...how can i stop it?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app

u mean after reboot seting r reset.
go to data/.syiah and delete all files ,then go to stweak, set again ,do backup and reboot stweak should save ur setings. but latest kernels r fixed .
go with 8.40 and u forgot about syiah, cos syiah left s2 and no more updates . tbh only 1 real option is dorimanx. rest r like plastic toys.
any way u dnt need other aps to set ur cpu , steeak is enough.
hit thx button if i helped

Yea you are right, stweaks is enough.
The only thing i don't like about dormi is that the minimum, for max frequency is 1000mhz; with siyah I could downclock to 800mhz. Anyway,can't use it because of this bug...

i knw mate its annoying , i found partialy working solution for uc , in stweak u set 1000/1000 then u open ur cpu tuner apk and uc below 1000 but thing is it wirks till u dnt turn off screen . but any way at 1000 its smooth and battery friendly im useing extream performance , in home i set 1500 when im going out i uc to 1000 for more battery and dnt loose that much performance. good luck.
if u havw group 3 cpu u can try oc to 1600 , try oc gpu 440-520 if can handle

opened / repairs

Hi
I took my x10 to fix it. (original topic here)
they almost fixed. I can use it now but when it gets hot it reset again
on the paper the gave me about the problem, it says "CPU FC"
now I have two questions
1. what does cpu fc mean?
and
2. how do I know they even opened it or not?
screws don't have any scratch and IMEI haven't changed
CPU FC means CPU Force Closes coz of Overheat ..see did u give the phone to the company or to whom ??? and ru using and custom ROM if not download an app called
CPU SPY beta in that check at which frequency ur phone runs see the Freq and let me know !!
might help me a bit in sorting ut problem !!

I had 2.3.3 and after repairing it, it's 2.1 now
so the CPU FC is on 2.3.3 or 2.1
when I bought it, it was 2.3.3 after 10min using it, it started to reset. then I took it to the repair store and "rewalled" it (fixing cpu connections). they flashed it with 2.1 and now it reset after using it and when cpu load is high
this morning I flashed stock 2.3.3 and still the same problem
i think the kernel might be having some problems .. did u try using any custom Kernels???

Easiest way is to repair it with pc companion. Install pc companion on Sony Ericsson website, if you don't have it
Do you have root access (if you haven't done this yourself, you wont have it)?

I think you might try custom roms available on developer threat as most of them have the basics tweaks and optimisations. I personally recommend this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16477883 rom for it is easy to understand instruction for newbie. Cheers.

I really want to help you and will give you the steps to have a smooth phone like mine
Sent from my SO-01C using xda premium
I recommend you sync your contacts with Google sync, back up your stuff with titanium back up free which is on the market. (note after you've flashed the ROM which has a kernel built into the ROM you will need to install titanium back up again to restore all the stuff you backed up)
. It is a very fast and smooth ROM I am using ATM. Okay go into xrecovery by starting your phone up and when you see the Sony Ericsson logo, keep pressing the back button.
Now you're in x recovery Wipe Dalvik cache, Wipe cache partition and do full factory wipe. Then go to install custom zip.

Do a clean install, the cleanest as u can:
01. Format your SD Card
02. Repair x10 in PC Companion
03. Root and instal xrecovery in the newest flash tool
04. Put some rom on Your SD Card (Im using Wolf ver 4.0.4s. Ive tested all roms here and like it the most i could give u some links)
05. Flash it in xrecovery
06. Reboot the fone it should be smooth like hell
Matty yr Thog stuff worked lyk the sexiest thing ever witnessed!!

Root problems

Hey, i recently rooted my S2 with odin and cf root and the phone has changed much!!(negative way)
The sd storage is 12 gb and i have used from it about 4gb so now i cant download anything from 4shared unless i delete apps and games
Also i cant watch ANY video from youtube or video player or any site
Help would be apreciated

Try clearing cache & Dalvik cache.
Download SD Maid to clean up unnecessary files and folders.
Use Titanium Backup to remove bloatware.

If you feel uncomfortable with CF-Root kernel, flash back stock kernel/ROM or try another kernel ... there are many different custom kernels for our phone here on xda.
Have a look at my kernel / stock ROM tests (link in my signature).

Consider changing the title of your thread to get more help as your problem is most likely not related to rooting. It is related to how android partitions internal memory ( /data, /mnt/sdcard).

Post a screenshot of your battery section in settings.
You could also change governor to "Conservative", to save battery life.

Phone shuts down unexpectedly.

Hey guys, I have used rootbox nightlie with no problems than i flashed the stable version and my phone shuts down unexpectedly 2-3 times a day. When I turn it back it starts booting and when the rootbox logo disappears it shuts down again (this is why I think this prob is unique). So after all
i need to connect my charger when rebooting and than the phone turns on perfectly. (I'm using Dorimanx 9.1)
Any suggestion?

dont use dori kernel, reflash the rom using first a kernel wipe script.
probably u messed up some settings on stweaks app
ONE TIP: always use the kernel wich comes with the rom if u dont wanna have any trouble

Reflashing the rom will do that!
The thing is the problem here is dori and all the crazy settings he set up... He needs the stock kernel from rootbox = reflashing rom but forst he meeds to wipe all the crap he made = using a kernel wipe script

ok , if ever you are going to use the Dori kernel man, just dont try to adjust the voltage, just put a check on it, VPLL mode under GPU, CPU wake tuning set to PEGASUSQ, sleep put on sleepy, those are the most important things man. dont change the voltage man, it will cause SOD

I wiped everyhing with a kernel wipe script and reflashed the rom (without Dori) but my phone still freezes a lot. Now everytime a start an app like a game.
I suggest you try a new ROM or flash stock one & then check if it occurs

gpt o the preformance settings built in the rom and use ondemand governor and sio IO scheduler (this scheduler should get that lag away, works for me on CM)

XGo reboots at least once when powering up

Can anyone help me? My phone reboots when I power it up. I use latest phantom kernel with stock Rom. So, I hold the power button, the phone turns on, I see the phantom kernel logo, then I see the Xperia logo, it kinda blinks for a second, when it reappears it does it again, then it continues for 2 seconds, I see the Sony waves thingy, the same thing happens 2-3 times, then it reboots and loads as if nothing happened!(or it does it again 1 more time)
The weird part is that it was alright a few days ago but this thing has scared the heck out of me! Help me pls!
Sent from my ST27i using xda app-developers app
That's the rom bootlooping. It could be caused by any problem. If it finally boots then it should not be a problem. (but I guess you should backup your data if problem increases (I suggest using Onandroid as you can make full nandroids without booting into recovery)) alternatively you can try to remove your int.d scripts and see if it helps. But make a nandroid before trying anything)

I believe the Phantom kernel has init.d support built-in.
You can check to see if you have any init.d scripts in /etc/init.d with Root Explorer or FX file manager with FX Root Access or any file manager that can access the root fs.
Can you still go to the home screen? If not, the best bet is that you need to re-install the ROM. Bootloops happened to me many times while playing with my Xperia, installing custom fonts, and due to that I never got scared of bootloops anymore cause I can always revive my Xperia.
Install the ROM again if you experience bootloops. Cheers
No I can still use it after 1 or 2 bootloops
