I´ve moved from stock I9100XXKP8_I9100OXAKP8 to Resurrection Remix ics v1.7[4.0.4] and now I get stuck on the boot logo or it shows the boot logo and then it goes black (depending on which kernel I flash to try to fix it...I´ve already tried flashing a CF root kernel, Siyah and CM9 KERNEL remix edition to no avail.
I CAN get into recovery mode. Before flashing the rom I´ve done a wipe data/factory reset, a wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache, fix permissions. I´m currently with kernel CM9 KERNEL remix edition.
Any thoughts on what I should do?
Update - when I put the battery in the phone starts by it self and it stays on the boot screen (Samsung Galaxy S II - GT-I9100)
I would suggest trying to install an older version and upgrading from there. I've been on RR since 1.3 and have not had any problems each time I have upgraded. I clear the caches but I don't do a factory wipe each time.

Hello, I hope this is the right group.
I have spent the last 2 days trying to get JB working on my SGS2. I previously had ICS Hydra h2o 1.4.1 ROM on my device.
The troubles started when I tried booting into CWM recovery. The phone wouldn't go past the yellow triangle so I had to use ODIN to flash stock Samsung ICS ROM on the phone to get it working again. I have since tried multiple JB ROMs with different kernels but most of them get past the yellow triangle but then stop on logos varying between kernels. I am also unable to boot into CWM recovery and must flash a CF-Root kernel using ODIN to get into recovery.
It is strange that this happens only with JB ROMs and I have no trouble installing Hydra h2o again through recovery.
I always use the same method of installing ROMs through CWM:
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache
- wipe dalvik
- install .zip from sdcard
I have also tried fixing permissions before and after flashing ROMs, nothing seems to get me into the OS.
One ROM, Vanilla RootBox, I have found to sometimes boot all the way into the OS but the system frequently freezes and is unstable. Looks amazing tho.
Do you have any ideas on how I could get JB ROMs working with my SGS2? Is there anything I am missing?

Thank you for the reply, but that method does not seem to work either.
One thing I have noticed though is when I select wipe data/factory reset it reports an error formatting /sdcard/.android_secure.
Is this something that could be causing my problems?

When I'm flashing I'm using XLPB kernel with CF-root. That's the kernel I flash to get into CWM when the ROMs misbehave.

Gives me Kernel panic or stops at the triangle loading screen. Seems the only way to get into CWM is through CF-root.

Use a newer version of siyah or dorimanx, they should work fine
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I have tried three versions of syiah, including 4.1.4 but I will try dorimanx and report with the results.
edit: dorimax kernel is the same.
One thing I noticed tough is whenever I wipe dalvik cache the system reports "unknown volume for /ext-sd blablabla" - maybe this is connected to my problem?
I am at a complete stop...
No JB kernels seem to work whatsoever. Is there any wit to flash the bootloader? Or is that even possible?
I really would like to get JB working on my device.
There must be something about the previous state of my phone, some files or folders that are in the way or are missing or somewhat. Is there any way to completely reset the phone? Not just factory resetting it since that is not working.
edit: Progress! These are my steps:
- Downloaded fresh stock Samsung ROM and another version of CF-root.
- Flashed stock ROM and then CF-root kernel.
- Booted into recovery and did the whole wipe.
- Flashed .zip twice (don't know if that did the trick or what)
- Wipe dalvik cache and fix permissions.
After that the phone booted normally and I'm now running ResurrectionRemix with Android 4.1.1, hoping it wil be awesome as ****.
Running Task's " the beginning," ICS ROM and A1 kernel v1.7 wifi only on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 wifi 32gb US model and having soft brick issue. Will only let me turn tab on and off not boot into download or recovery mode. How can I get into recovery otherwise or any other suggestions/fixes? Thanks for the time and help.
Edit: Never mind booted into recovery using Odin reflashed backup to restore ROM. Had to data wipe factory reset and wipe both caches to reinstall Task's ICS ROM. Only then was issue resolved after flashing A1 kernel v1.7 that was stuck at Samsung logo every reboot. Now using Yoda kernel instead with no issues on this ROM.
Hi,
Today I tried ti flash an Android 4.2.2 Rom. First I installed Siyah Kernel and then SuperNexus 2.0.
The Problem is, that the Phone restarts while booting up Android, sometimes when the X is shown up and sometimes a few seconds later.
I made a factory reset and wiped all Data. I tried another Rom (Slim Bean) but there was the same Problem.
Please Help Me,
Maize
After you flashed rom you flashed a kernel? If yes probably kernel is incompatible else try rom nuke script and flash rom and gapps again
Send from my SGS2 I9100 with HassanROM and latest DorimanX 8.xx kernel
that doesn't work, any other Ideas??? and i didn't flash a kernel after flashing the rom

Flash rom and kernel nuke scripts via recovery.
Flash Rom.
If you still get reboots go back into recovery and wipe data/factory reset and reboot device.
Which specific model of S2 do you have?
Same problem, it's a SGS2 I9100
I downloaded and followed each instruction as instructed in the MIUI V5 rom page for samsung galaxy s2 but after flashing the rom got stuck and boot animation.So i decided to go back to my stock rom.So i did wipe cache and factory wipe too but even after that the stock rom is looping at boot animation. What did i do wrong ? I was running JB version 4.1.2.
factory reset maybe a couple of times. Then cache
