[Q]Help with experimental cm11 please... - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone. This is my first post...anyways, been playing around with a gt-i9100 and have flashed many ROMs successfully. The latest (and best) being slim saber. I THOUGHT it was soooo easy! Haha! Wrong! Recently flashed the experimental cm11. Did the customary cwm backup, wiped cacheband partition, formatted, and wiped dalvik. Installed and Booted up fine. From reading that thread I'm experiencing the same common problems. The two worst are the battery level is out of whack and cwm can't read the SD card or micro SD. Smaller problems include can't adjust screen brightness and any apps on SD get deleted after reboot. Other smaller issues also. The overall speed is great and battery life is better than 4.3 ROMs.
Now, the real problem...because cwm can't read SD, I can't go reinstall my backup, which was my plan. Unable to flash new because downloads also go to sd, which is unreadable. Performed a backup of the current rom and its going to the phone memory. Is there anyway to move my nanadroid backup or new ROM there so cwm can see it and I can flash or any other suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Man Jim, u gonna hate me lol. Unfortunately apolo 6.1 is a zip file, and as far as my research has gone, no way to convert it to tar for odin flash. any other suggestions? I think the only way might be to revert to stock and root again like bhavstech recommended. I'm not desperate, as it is still usable and I have another phone so I'll wait a while and hope someone can enlighten me...thanks!

LOL - I forgot!! I think there is a tar file for 4.1 - use that, or use latest dori (either 8.43 or 9.43) it doesn't matter which because you will be re installing your back up which will have its own recovery img.
Hope this helps :cyclops:

Hey Jim I got it fixed using dori! Funny because the latest 4.4 addressed both of my major issues...stubborn me decided to try it out and I gotta say its pretty good! Stable but just a few broken apps and small issues. Gonna five it a try as a daily driver...thanks again!!!!

use odin to flash tar and then install and older rom which is functional with the sdcard. and then flash back your backups.

[Q] Kernel Panic with Rez V1.1

Any chance of some help on this problem which I stupidly put myself into. I installed Resurrection Remix ics v1.1 PRO[XXLPE]4.0.3[Full-Wipe], V9.6 aswell as Andy XROM which were all successful. Today however, my phone will only stay on the kernel panic, upload mode screen. It won't let me go into recovery or download and my system is not recognizing the phone as a USB device.
Any help or directions are greatly appreciated. Up until now I thought I knew my way around this thing but feel stupid now.
Thanks in advance for an help provided.

this issue has become a common now in ICS roms, but as far as others experiance you should be able to get download mod with Vol-down+ Home+Power, did you try this after pulling and putting battery again.
see one comment a member :
"I have the same prob but finally i can solve this prob. You should flash a stock rom( any version) using Odin and have to root your phone. After that you can flash MIUI rom throught CWM. Remember to wipe data/system and davik cache before flash MIUI rom. please contact me at [email protected] if you still have the pro."

[Q]Flashing several roms, nothing works.

Hi,
First of all, im a bit of a noob.
Second, i have rooted my phone, a SG2 GT-i9100 XWLPD.
And no matter what i do, it just wont succeed to install roms, every ones i tried, get stuck on boot screen. i have remembered to wipe.
Then i go to CWM, and install again, cause i read somewhere you maybe should do it twice. nothing.
Then i reverted to stock, that works.
Tried again, nothing.
I have tried
Thebyani_v4.3_ICS
Spike.pure.ics-v7.4
Villainrom 2.4.2
All to XWLPD.
What to do ?
Not sure what happens when you try those roms, but you can try the ICS Reseruction ROM which is the best ROM out there for SG2. Here is the link to the ROM page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854
You can install it using the following steps:
-Reboot into recovery (CWM)
-Wipe Data / Factory Reset
-Install the Main ROM
-In recovery go to Advanced
-Wipe Dalvik Cache
-Fix Permissions
-Wipe Cache Partition
-Reboot
-If at the first boot you can't do the configuration of the google account, skip this step and continue
-When you boot into the system, it's probably that you don't have data enabled (3g, H+) just reboot
-When you boot again into the system the data will be enable and you can do the configuration of Google Account (if you don't do this before)
-This is the moment for install all the extras like themes, fix's, kernels, etc.
Enjoy!!!
Thanks, ill try that..
I really wants a battery saver rom, if you know any better ones.
Edit: Didn't work, starts up, goes to samsung logo, with the triangle, goes to ICS siyahkernel, then it reboots to recovery mode (CWMR Touch v5.5.0.4)
Any advise?

Get used to work with Odin, that's all!
Just read, there are so many descriptions out there!
Second, if your phone was delivered with ics (lpd) do not attempt to flash a GB ROM (vr 2.4.2] since it will not work with an ics bootloader!
Some ROM's are not running as standalone, they are mostly offset roms based on cm9 examples are slim ics or Clean blank ROM, don't know whether the roms you named are like this.
So, all you need is Odin (or mobile Odin) and a ROM in .tar.md5 format.
I recommend litening rom 3.2 which is fully deodexed and close to stock.
Good luck!

Or you can try NEAT. It's stock and has gr8 battery.
I don't think it's the roms... u might do something wrong... follow the steps:
1. Reboot into recovery
2. Factory reset
3. Wipe cache, dalvik, battery stats
4. Install the rom
5. Reboot system
I always do that and never had a problem.
Good luck!

If you really want to save battery, go for phenomenal kernel extreme and use ki3 /ki4 modem, check my sig for bloatware which can be frozen.
Ps: if phenomenal extreme will end up in bootloop, use medium version, best approach, dl them both before flashing extreme

Just DL 5.5 Medium zip and extreme.zip, go to cwm and flash extreme, if boot stucks, wipe cache and dalvik, if its still not working, go to cwm again and flash medium.
if you DL them to the phone directly, rename it after dl cuz on the phone the name will be phenomenal5.zip in all cases!
If you use odin, dl the .tar files
Not too hard or?
Okay, ill do that, i will use odin.
Thanks again
Edit: It worked with Odin, now im on that kernel, thanks mate, im looking forward to see the battery improvement

Great, which one ? extreme ? If yes, lucky you!
For further Battery Improvements, use BBS and post a dump in the desired thread.
Please do not use any benchmarks, they will not give you the best results on this kernel, as long as the phone is smooth, everything is fine!
Yes, extreme one
What do you mean with "use BBS and post a dump in the desired thread." ?

CM9 help? PLEASE!

I have been trying since yesterday evening to install the CM9 nightly build. I've read through every single post in the thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778170 ) and I still can't seem to do it. I've flashed a few ROMs in the past with no issues, but for some reason this one is not making any sense. Maybe it's a good thing because I've learned so much and had my heart drop a few times thinking my phone is ruined. My issue seems to be with my version of CWM I guess? The first step of the instructions says to: 1. Install ClockworkMod Recovery for "quincyatt".
I don't understand this. I click on the link in the thread and the CWM file is a .img file, so I don't understand how to flash it to my phone. I've downloaded ROM manager (and paid for the premium version) and flashed the newest version through there. When I do that, it completely messes up CWM and keeps giving me errors anytime I try to install any ROM. It freezes on most things I do, keeps giving cache errors, etc. It seems like there's an issue with flashing the newest version through ROM manager. So how do I get CM9 on my phone? Do I need to update CWM someway? I currently have the version in the CWM thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1584576 ) with the latest release 04-14. If someone can please give me an explanation for what I'm missing here, that would help greatly. I've been on this forum for a few years and always read and search. I actually just made my first post yesterday to help someone when I was encountering the same issue with CWM that they were and finally figured it out after hours of reading.
THANK YOU!

Try using TWRP recovery. I believe it flashes successfully.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647575
It is a zip not a. Img i just clicked it myself. Dont use the stock browser. Download dolphon browser hd. And click the link. The zip file you download is there. Flash it in cwm recovery. Easy easy stuff.
Download rom manager from the market. From within the app you can install CWM. This is what the post means.
Oops, sorry didn't read your whole post at first.
I had the same problem. What I did to fix it was purchase the touch recovery upgrade from within rom manager and that fixed my problems. If you have $2 to spare give it a shot. Good luck!

Thanks for the replies. I finally got it to work with TWRP. Now of course when it loads up everywhere I click I get an error saying 'Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped. :laugh: Here we go again.
Do what i said in my post above. Make sure to wipe data cache and dalvik cache in CWM recovery. Or dont listen and continue to enjoy the issues. Also dont use rom manager. Its more problems then its worth. Good luck
Thank you, I appreciate your help. Well I figured out how to get that error to stop. Now just need to figure out how to get all my contacts on here that were only saved on my SIM and I'll be good to go. This was a really good learning experience. I'm really liking TWRP
Do yourself a favor and put all contacts on your Gmail account. You can enter them on a PC quickly. Just be sure to always select your Gmail account to sync.
Another option is to use Titanium Back Up and restore the contacts once moving to a new ROM.

Thanks, I synced them all to Gmail. Much faster now! Finally got it all up and running. Just a question about using the 'touch key notification lights' Does this kill the battery? It seems like it stays on until you read your text, so if you get one while asleep those lights just stay on?
Use bln app from market and uncheck in system settings. You can set that to turn off whenever you'd like

Just flash the Terrasilent Kernel with Odin to get CWM. That's the recommended starting point for installing CM10 anyway.
Remember to do all your backups (including and -----> **ESPECIALLY** <------ your EFS.rfs) first because when you flash the new ROM you'll want to clear your Dalvik cache and reset to factory settings, which would wipe all of the data on the device.
Once you've installed Terrasilent, press the power button and volume up at the same time to get into CWM.
I don't have my EFS.. I can't figure out how to get it back. I don't have a lock screen or a power menu.

Well, in any case, flash Terrasilent for CWM and then use that to upgrade to Jellybean.
In the future though, remember to backup your EFS before you flash a new ROM. You can't get it back once you've lost it, and faking one doesn't always work right.

It takes all of five minutes(if you have ADB set up) and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
Guys we don't even know if he has his efs so why bother flashing terrasilent? Hmm do you have a efs backup laying somewhere on your /sdcard like efs.tar? Maybe you can get your efs if you have this.

I don't have an efs backup. A friend gave this to me because he bricked it, but I unbricked it with Heimdall and there's no lockscreen or power menu, and I heard about this problem back when I had my Infuse 4G but I never ran into it.

Well, if you're absolutely sure there isn't one, go ahead with Terrasilent I suppose.
Zac, since you're here I had some questions for you:
1. I noticed that in the CM9 thread you said the gapps package needs to check for the EFS folder, but the CM10 gapps post didn't mention it. Is it still necessary?
2. Do I need to clear the user data when switching between builds of the same ROM, or only between major versions (ie. CM9->CM10)?
3. I noticed that "Cell Standby" is sucking up quite a bit of battery life (latest CM10 build). Is this something we can fix (or workaround), or is the problem "upstream?"
Thanks for all the work you and bbelos (and others) have put in over the past few months. It's really great to see it all paying off so well.

1. It's not the gapps that checks the efs folder, it's the zip installer script
2. It's not mandatory but if you experience problems, it's recommended to do so
3. As I've already said in the FAQ, it wont change anything because the device don't have any antenna or anything cell related. The battery won't even be touched.
Would anybody here be able to do that for me?

If you have the INTL version, you have to download Kernel r14 (Odin):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1414565
Now, the Odin program:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189539
1->Shut down your mobile.
2->Start Odin 3 (for example).
3->Connect the galaxy player with USB while pressing the volume down button.
4->Now, Odin will have to say that it's connected to your mobile. Then press on PDA and charge the YP-G70-Kernel-r14.tar
5->Tick ONLY Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time.
6->Pres Start and it will flash your Kernel.
7->Start your galaxy player while pressing volume up and home button. That's all! You will be in CWM recovery!
For US galaxy player, it's pretty the same, but the kernel is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445840 (Download the .tar version! If not you'll be nothing with Odin )

the problem isnt that he cant find the kernel. i kernel s included in the rom that you have downloaded and only needs to be extracted,
his problem now is that he lost his efs and doesnt have it anymore. you need your efs in order to flash CM10 because the updater script checks for certain files

not to be snotty or rude, but you need to figure it out to get help
10.1 or 10.2
but REALLYNOW is right. there is no "STABLE" attached to any build.
have you eve got file for our phone???
When you move to a different OS you don't just "do the usual wipes". You format the system partition and the data partition as well. Otherwise you end up with buttloads of errors.
Go into recovery and find the steps I described and do them. Then reinstall CM. Don't restore old apps - let the market install the updated versions to avoid conflicts.

If you go to cm's website and look at our phone you will see that the OP is correct.There is a 10.1.2 that is listed as stable. Its the sixth one down on the page here http://get.cm/?device=quincyatt
The phone is working again. It didn't worked with the stock GB ROM nor the ICS T-Mobile ROM. But when I flashed the AT&T ICS stock ROM the phone started working again. And currently is running Cyanogenmod 10.1.2.

I did. It's not my first time flashing another ROM. I used to have an LG Optimus BLack (p970h) and a Galaxy S2 T-Mobile.

I just quoted you and posted because buttload is such a fun word and I wanted to save it in Swype lol ...and howdy Ranger.

Howdy back, Bubbajoe. I'm glad for the chance to increase your phone's vocabulary.
Hey OP, no offense intended. I always did "the usual wipes" between roms, but when I moved to CM I had to do the formatting. Its because all the other roms are based on stock roms and have similar file structures, but CM is different.
