try searching blazing kernal it helps to update

If you cannot flash a recovery from your recovery then find some custom recovery and flash it with odin. Use an odin guide cause if you misplace the file then you brick it I believe It was pda where you need to flash the kernel correct me if iam wrong
Hope this is an workaround if you cant flash any kernel what was the error that you couldnt flash it or did it flash and nothing happend if so maybe the partition table is different?

I did flash a CF-ROOT manually, XX_OXA_KG1, using ODIN.
The file from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
I did flash the last ROM using ODIN (from V1.5 to V2.0). But for V2.1, i flashed it using CWM, goes the same with V2.2.

You've done everything correctly, better if you ask this in litening rom thread...or maybe wait for 2.3, if it comes as a full rom, it would be great

thanks Kryptoner, but unfortunately i still can not post anything to the ROM thread, i haven't got any permisison from Mods. I wish someone could really post the same problem with me, and i could find the same solution. Don't want to wipe the data (like i have read in other forums if can't flash a new ROM or updated the ROM with CWM)
please help.
Could someone help me? I would appreciate it. Thanks
Did you try to download the rom again?

Need Help fast. Mini usb port died. Need to unroot.

Is there s way for me to unroot this phone without the usb port?
Any takers on this issue? Or should I run the battery dead.
I have a stock rom on it but its rooted. Everything looks stock but it has superuser in the apps menu.
Use rootexplorer to delete SU app. Then download the siyah kernel cwm flashable zip. Replace the zimage inside with a stock one. Transfer it to your phone using Bluetooth. Flash it in recovery.
Once you reboot, you should be unrooted and having a stock kernel.

can I get the zimage off my phone or is it on the net? Also do I just find superuser and delete it or is there a uninstall?

Which stock firmware were you using? The zimage is available inside the tar file. Extract it using winrar.
I have the same problem that i highlighted in the thread below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18614955#post18614955
I have been looking for the Stock Rom in a ZIP format so that i can flash it via Recovery.
Can anyone guide us on how to convert the STOCK ROM to a ZIP Format?? Android 2.3.4 version for Samsung Galaxy S2. I am sure there is a way as i have seen the zip files for other phones.
PLEASE HELP!!
EDIT: Thank you Silesh. I will try this out tonight. Many thanks.

I can make one for you. But you will have to be rooted with a insecure kernel to flash it using cwm. After flashing it, you should be as good as stock.
It's not giving me a uninstall tab. It's giving me a install tab in root explorer

Long press on the Superuser.apk and delete. You may also have to delete the su binary and busybox to remove any signs of rooting.
Ok superuser is gone. Now to figure out this flash.

No buddy. What did you exactly do to your phone to get it to the present state?
Did you flash any firmware using Odin? How did you root?
Also dial *#1234# and let me know the result.
I see the zimage in the siyah kernel cwm but I' having trouble finding a stock zimage

I flashed a kernal a while back to root and then flashed right back to stock and the root stayed. Also I dialed *#1234# and nothing happened.

I am currently rooted and on Sensation ROM 1.8 using Siyah Kernel v 2.0
I would be very grateful if you can make a zip file for XXKI3 (2.3.5) or XXKH3 (2.3.4).
Thank you very much.
I can't find out what stock firmware I have. It's the stock one that came on the phone though.

You need root access first before you can flash a kernel via recovery (factory recovery).
I'll advise you to just flash the kernel via Odin.
However, If you still want to use the recovery option I can post a link for you.
You can always flash updates via Odin. Much faster.

He had an error. Not a bootloop. You're doing something wrong.

Try using a newer version of recovery to install the Rom. It seems as if you are using a older version of recovery than is required for installing RR.

Thanks Wildfire, saved me saying it! Absolutely amazing how people try to install custom ROMs without following the chef's advice, then jump up and down when things don't work!
Thanks a lot. I will try an other recovery. You'd be very sympathicif you gave me a link to download it.

here is a link to a newer recovery. Link: https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/i9100/
If you want to flash via recovery, download the zip file to your phone. If you want to flash with ODIN (recommended), download the tar.md5 file to your PC and flash with ODIN (select as PDA file).
Thanks a lot for your help, it worked !
