Hi everyone,
I have a Galaxy S2 i9100.
I just came from a RootBox (forgot which version - one the newest anyway). Did not suit me. I went to install the Resurrection Remix ROM from here.
I do all the right steps in the guidelines, but I don't encounter the AROMA installer. It just flashes the ROM. It work, but I can't apply any customizations.
Any ideas why it goes wrong?
Other people with same problem here: here but I don't have write permissions there yet.
Thanks!

I think it's a ROM problem if other people experience this too.Try flashing DorimanX 9.38 kernel,then reflash ROM.

Weird. Did what you said. Flashed the new kernel (after cleaning the old one). Then flashed the ROM.
Same effect. No AROMA installer.
So, any idea for other kernels?
Anyone? --^
Maybe the ROM file's corrupted or broken? Try redownloading it, or do a checksum test.
Same problem for me aswell. I took the last .zip from here: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=6564 but no Aroma for me aswell.
Hi Guys,
even i faced the same proble while installing KitKat on my SII.
it works fine but not satisfied after flashing ROM..
Kindly hepl me...
There is nothing wrong with your device/download: Aroma is just not used anymore.
So if you want to flash a different kernel, you'll have to do it manually.

Could someone possibly help with a small problem... I cant seem to get the home button to work anymore instead i have to press to the right similar to how the new Nexus works. I would prefer pressing the button but cant see any settings for it. Hope this description is reasonably clear
Thanks

Did you flash something right before this started happening?
if it was after a flash.... try reinstalling from your back up.... could be a bad flash or an incompatible rom?

That's my guess, and what I'm trying to determine with my above question. If he did flash something, I'm guessing he flashed an I777 ROM to his I9100, or he actually has an I777, and flashed an I9100 ROM.
Right...
Yep, i flashed the Resurrection Remix ics v1.1 PRO[XXLPE] rom but as I was getting a few problems I flashed the Turkbey V5 back. I was getting the same problem with Resurrection Remix as well as some fc ?
Thanks

Usual answer is factory reset, see if that helps. If not, re-flash your ROM. If that doesn't help, re-flash back to stock.
Did you follow the steps for installing RR 1.1 fully, wipe dalvic, apply after boot fixes etc? There is a good walkthrough somewhere on this forum, check it out.
I made a more detailed walkthrough for Remix (in my sig) but v1.2 will be out any moment which will be more "n00b" proof with less steps. I'd wait for it, if you are considering to try it again.
Here it was this one I meant...

I'm currently running SHOStock ICS ROM and I want to change it, but every time I try to flash the CM9 ROM in recovery mode, I get an error-
Installation aborted (Status 7). The first time it happened was after I installed the shostock rom (I had the cm9 before and had no problems installing it).
I tried to update CWM through ROM Manager, but it didn't solve the problem.
What can I do to fix it? I searched the forum but didn't find a solution..
Im not sure exactly how to fix that but I've always read that we should avoid Rom Manager on the i777. You might want to sheck the threads about Rom manager errors. I've flashed every rom out there and never used rom manager and never had any problems.
I used rom manager only to update CWM. I haven't installed any rom with rom manager.
last time i found that error with CM9 was because of the build.prop issue. Our phones run i9100 based ROM's alot, there's a line in the updaterscript that looks for phone model, must remove that **** outta there.
And i must say that CM9 sucks if they still have not addressed this well known issue.
Just flash AOKP.
O and, un install ROM manager, its for idiots.
Does this ROM fully support hebrew? (including menus)

Good question. I would say go ask in the AOKP thread, but you don't have enough posts to do that yet...I'll go ask for you. You can just go read the replies to my post.
Problem solved. I flashed AOKP and it worked (no error) ,but after that I flashed CM9 back (more comfortable for me), works perfect. Thanks for the help.

What model do you have? international or P/G/M etc etc etc etc??
Have you tried other kernel?
Have you tried wiping/factory reset after flashing rom?
Have you checked roms thread for other people with same issue?

my samsung is a GT - I9100 ...
before i flash the turkbey, i used rainbox v8.1 with jeboo kernel.
i flash the turkbey, see that nothing happens on start, wipe facory reset and flash again, ...
some guys had troubles too, but it seems they run the rom after flashing a second time.
now i am back on samsung stock ...
it works now
i flash a stock rom again, and change the stock kernel agains philz kernel and not like before, jeboo.
imho, rainbox rom looks nicer to me, and it runs smoother here.
in the settings menu, some text is not translated, shown in ?? turkish or so
and i miss the multi colored buttons in the status/notification bar, looks really great.
but turkbey is also a very nice rom !
thx for help

Firstly: Please give more detailed information (which kernel do you use, which ROM did you use before the problem occurred?)
Secondly: It is possible that you can't acess recovery mode anymore when flashing new updates. Happens with CM 10.2 OTA Update right now. The solution would be to flash a new recovery using Heimdall (Open-Source ODIN alternative) [Didn't try that, but should theoretically work] or, mor simple, a new kernel. Dorimany v9.34 is suited perfectly for that. Download here: http://dorimanx.shine.sk/ .

Well, i used Carbon Rom for a few weeks, so that was definitly the rom. Talking about the kernel, I dont even know how to install one.. haha Now in kernel version it says..
3.0.64 CM gb07657a
[email protected] #1 (I dont know what kernel it is)
Yeah but even if I dont want to flash an update, just boot recovery, I cant. Have you any link to know about Heimdall? Or how to install Dorimany? Im a beginner I have to say.
Thanks

You installed a Kernel while rooting your phone: Its the .tar that you have to put into the PDA section in ODIN. There are Kernels with .tar and .zip: .tar files are only flashable using Odin while .zip files are flashed using the recovery just like you flash ROMs. I guess your Kernel is a custom CM Kernel (CM for Cyanogen Mod). Carbon ROM is probably based on CM. There is currently no other workaround to get your recovery back then flashing a new kernel/recovery. I am currently working on an easy workaround for this problem, but it will take a while.
Dorimanx is downloadable here http://dorimanx.shine.sk/ and should be compatible: Just flash it like you did when rooting your phone in the beginning, just with Dorimanx .tar in PDA. Recovery should work again afterwards.
My mistake: It's Dorimanx, not Dorimany
Hit Thanks and just ask if you need additional help!

Yeah, I remember.. it was siyah kernel.
So in your opinion I should flash Dorimanx by Odin then? No other way to fix isnt it? and.. in dorimanx page, which one of all them should I download?

1. Yes you should
2. Not right now, maybe in the future, flashing recovery.img using Heimdall would probably help, but I didn't try it myself and using Heimdall is quite complex
3. In General: The newest .tar (9.34/8.34) as you can't use .zip files
When you want to use Stock Samsung ROM: Version 8
When you want to use CM/AOKP based ROM: Version 9
Remember: No ICS Support!

Ok.
But every aosp rom, like Carbon PA and these are based either in AOKP or CM, isnt it?
The newest one is 9/39, is that the one?

CM & AOKP are actually based on AOSP, so Yes, every AOSP ROM should work.

I agree, the problem results of the ROM: But you have to flash dorimanx after carbon because carbon replaces the current kernel with its own CM custom Kernel. It should work just fine with carbon when it's flashed after installing carbon.

I am using RR as well and as far as I saw in ROM's topic, many users have faced problems with custom kernels. Especially Dorimanx versions. I only once tried Gustavo and installed it without any problem. Just flashed it in CWM and that was all. I can say that make a full wipe, install RR first and then Gustavo. That should be OK.
But after a few days with Gustavo, I returned back to the original kernel of RR. Because it is stable and no major problems. So my advice is use the ROM with it's own original kernel.
Maybe the flash wasn't clean.. Try Kernel wipe script.

I already try kernel wipe script but the result is same. Generally i flash with full wipe ı dont know where i make a mistake. Maybe i should wait for stable kernel)
I have flashed Gustavo's 26/3 kernel many times before but recently the same kernel file gave me status 7 error.
Try downloading your kernel file again. Maybe the file has gone corrupt.
