[Q] please please understand and help..

I have rooted my phone with odin and installe the kitchen pro app, but whe i try to install checkrom 6hd or any rom it fails at verification i successfully did all this a few months ago on a sgs2 before it was stolen, i now i seem to be hitting problem after problem...........
if you want to refer me to ''in in this thread'' please post the link because im struggling to find help, ive looked all over and navigating this site is far from easy.
I get the yellow triangle so i guessi rooted properly, ive tried 2 roms, neither will install :9 please help me............ delete this thread after if need be
again, please help
which kernel are you using.. download a custom kernel..like siya or neak.. and make sure its the correct version .. dat is if you are using GB rom then download a GB kernel. the try flashing the rom from recovery
1) Kitchen pro will work only after installing Checkrom,
2) flash another (CWM+Rooting) kerenel from ODIN like siyah,
link for GB Shiyah Kernel : http://gokhanmoral.desean.net/siyahkernel/v2.6/Siyah-v2.6.14.tar (make sure you are on GB version now, otherwise you have to select ICS siyah kernel)
and try to install Checkrom from CWM
I've done all that, I keep getting E:verification failed.... any help please?

[Q] CWM fixed for CM7 flashing problem

Hi, recently bought an Samsung Fascinate for Telus so i could enjoy yet again more Android powerfullness! ( Had an HD7 before and i didn't really liked it )
So i started hacking my way trough this phone (wich is far more complicated than my previous HTC Desire or Motorola Milestone) and i got to the point in wich i have the WeUI Rom installed! Woohoo!
Except, i'd like to try a AOKP Rom (Kang's for example) but in every topic they talk about CWM Recovery fixed for CM7 (wich i have already downloader and tried to install MANY MANY times)
Here's what i was doing in order to get that CWM Recovery :
1. Get back to Stock Froyo using Odin files.
2. Update to 2.3.3 Using Samsung Kies
3. Now Flash CWM Recovery Fixed for CM7.
4. Odin Crashed and Failed at Recovery.Bin now in boot loop...(HELPP!!!))
.... Kidding made myself a JIG with some tutorials in here so i wont have to buy one
note : i also tried starting from STOCK 2.3 to Speedmod kernel recovery and Flash the recovery trough the recovery but it just... doesnt do anything?
1.Redo 1 to 2....
2. Get up with Glitchy Kernel with WeUI and it works...
3. But i'd really like to get those AOKP wich seems to be way more battery efficient!
Now i was wondering if that was the real method in order to do this or if there was a special order for TELUS user as i'm aware that there's some tiny things that are different.
Thanks in advance for your help and before you ask me if i read those tutorials yes i did.. as a proof

and of course my Rom

Oh and by the way i'd like to apologize if i made a MASSIVE english error torment.... i'm french
make sure anyfiles you use are specifically for telus or you will brick the device.
Try View attachment cwm4-bml-i500.tar. I have never used it but it might work for you.

You are right, go for SiyahKernel (latest) (safe -> no mmc) Flash it with Odin.
That will give you a safe kernel with Root then you can follow instruction in CM website (CM10 zip + gapps) to get a working CM10.
Search XDA for more help. There are lots of articles on this!
Same prob here..

Im sorry for this.. i will delete my post right away. please do understand im just new here and im not quite familiar going around forums..

How do i get back to original rom

hi guys,
i have a samsung galaxy s2 (GT-i9100 - NFC), which i got from orange end of 2011. I the in jan 2012 got help from this forum to root my phone and change the rom from the original to:-
Rom & Build No: VillianROM 3.0
And' ver: 2.3.5
Baseband: i9100XXki1
Kernel: 2.6.35.11-ninphetamine-2.0.5+ninpo @ titan #20
Although the phone works okay, i'm beginning to notice a lot of slowdowns and regular reboots, so i want to go back to whatever latest google android OS the S2 can handle (rooted). I've forgotten what to do and would be most grateful if someone could please help me with the following:-
1. Whats the best software/method to backup everything?
2. What is the latest rom (original, but should not have a provider's bloatware) i can use on the S2?
3. Once backed up, how do i change from VillianRom to the latest/best OS currently available?
4. How can i root the original rom?
Thanks once again

For official stock rom, check
www.sammobile.com
And search latest stock rom for your region.
If you like custom rom, then there are so many roms on xda. I like omega and alliance roms. Choice varies from person to person

1. Depends. You can do a backup in CWM to image your device or you can use Titanium Backup Pro to just backup your apps/appdata and restore to new rom.
2. http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ < Check your device/model here.
3. Well just so you're clear, There is no "best" its subjective. Also "latest" depends on what type of rom you want to flash like Sammy/AOSP/AOKP/CM/MIUI etc. To flash latest samsung do it via ODIN, to flash any other do it via CWM. All info you need is already on forum.
4. By flashing custom kernel via ODIN.
All your questions have already been answered countless times.
Thanks very much guys. I simply want a fast lean rom as some seem to be slow running.
Doesn't get better than this.
sendign the phone for warranty?
you will need to flash back the original rom and unroot your phone.
if they found your phone is rooted the warranty void, experience it before so be aware of this.
Let me thank you guys for advicing me. I am most grateful. I read your posts a bit late and in the meantime, I think i have bricked my phone as i've flashed Samsung's original FW (I9100PBVLP8_I9100PORALP8_ORA) from sammobile.com. I used Odin v3 and successfully flashed the phone, but it's simply stuck on the boot logo. I have even done the following:-
I've managed to wipe the cache partition, but the recovery menu has No advanced options. It says:-
ANDROID SYSTEM RECOVERY <3a>
reboot system now
apply update from ext' storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
test redband fota[FS]
But i still cannot get it to boot. I have also tried to use an old nandroid.md5 backup i made, but odin reports the file as invalid.
I'm desperate guys, please could someone help me.
Download Mode and re flash.
Are you sure you are flashing the right ROM right? Check under the battery to see the Device Model.
If it's i9100, then make sure you are downloading a i9100 ROM.
Thanks very much for your advice gastonw - i have managed to fix the problem now by going into system recovery and doing a factory reset, so thank you.
Although everything seems to be working fine, i would have preferred a more newer 4.2 jelly bean rather than 4.0.3. Oh well beggars can't be choosers and all that, lol! I guess i'll have to re-root it again.
gastonw mate ur a star! I've installed the latest JB rom u posted earlier and i'm very happy with it.
Now before i damage it beyond repair, how do i root it safely?

Hi You could try this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719 its quite safe so ether should work or wont, if don't no harm done as it doesn't need a insecure kernel.
I'm quite new myself @ this so plz use caution when trying it out.
Peace

Good to know man, enjoy it
About root, I've seen a couple of methods laying around the threads, I'm sure they're safe.
I still think that ExynosAbuse app is the fastest way to Root now (one-click).
Here's a vid. I never tried it tho.
Thanks very much for the links AnubuRe and Gastonw.
Gastonw mate, i have been playing with the rom you posted a link to. Don't get me wrong, it's great and very fast, but the downside is that it doesn't have a huge number of options to tweak etc. Now someone mentioned a rom called Neatrom, but i'm wondering what you can recommend? I don't want a bloated rom...i want a fast rom, but with some options to allow me more greater control over the phone.
Also, i know this is a bit off-topic, but can you recommend me a widget app, where i can quickly dial phone numbers i.e. by touching a person's photo?

recovery for this device is stored in the kernel actually, so you need to flash a custom kernel if you haven't yet, hit up the the dev section and read the official xda vibrant bible and get yourself a bit more familiar with this device.
