[Q] yellow traingle after cwm :( - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all,
i just purchased this S2 I9100 handset from one of my freind..he had rooted and installed some kitkat resurrenction mix custom rom which i did not like
i flashed cwm through odin but when it rebooted in yellow traingle..i cna go into cwm recovery mode by presiing (vol up+power+home), yellow triangle appears briefly and then cwm menu appears..but when i select REBOOT SYSTEM it again goes into yellow traiangle..
i have searched on net and right now downloading stock rom from sammy I9100XWLST FOR indian s2 i9100LKAINU
my question is if i just flash this rom thru odin will the triangle go away? odin or copy to sd card and flash via cwm?
or do i have to download kernel seperately also,..where do i find if yes?
thanks

hmm... your phone is soft bricked....flash the stock rom, root your phone, install and execute triangle away, this should fix your problem
sorry for bad english

If you still want to, you can remove this triangle. But it's not doing any harm, so you can leave it like it is. Just so you know.

CWM issues maybe a reflash?

Is there a way to reflash a new Clockwork Mod recovery over the recovery image on my SG2?
What has happened is I flashed my Chainfires Root KF2 with CWM
Then I flashed the original Firmware KF2 over the top to get rid of the Yellow !
The CWM (as stated in the Chainfire post) may not work properly due to reflashing over it with another firmware (my 2nd flash)... I get this weird
can't access CSC system/csc issue... when i boot into recovery mode.
I was thinking if I could reflash a version of CWM over the top it might fix up the issue...
Any ideas? is it possible?
Cheers

Yes

Did instructions not tell you to flash kernel not firmware .
That fails do a wipe of phone put a stock full firmware on and start again is often the easy way as it clears all and even better if you format the phone before flashing .

Oh so if i do the process again, but instead of reflashing stock the firmware I reflash the kernal at the end to get rid of the !.
Sorry i am a newb, I come from a modding a motorola backflip... seemed so much easier...
Sorry my bad... I did Flash CF-Root Firmware
and then flashed the orginal Kernel over the top....
So i did it correctly the first time...
If you get rid of the yellow triangle, just buy a jig at ebay (around 5 €). After plugging the jig on your phone it will boot in download mode and all download count data will be deleted.
For me it removed the yellow triangle at the boot screen (Kernel: CF-Root 4.0 KF2).

Ok. I seriously to know why this method has failed for you.
No problem, try this.
To gain ROOT access,
1. Download Siyah kernel (.tar version): www.gokhanmoral.com/
2. Flash Siyah kernel via Odin
To remove yellow triangle and reset your binary counter:
1. Download triangle away app ( i already posted the link)
2. Read the instructions
3. Run triangle away app.

i dont no why ur so much worried about the 'Yellow Triangle' thing as if it will simply Gobble ur phone, its quite common to have that yellow triangle once u root ur phone, which all of us have gone thro' already.
Also removed that yellow triangle successfully with the 'Triangle Away' app for sure ma8, so no need to worry.
go ahead and root ur phone using the .tar file of siyah kernel v4.1.4 and then use 'Triangle Away' app to remove the Yellow Triangle

its ok buddy, its quite common human nature of people getting annoyed since they trying to help u and urn't taking there advice properly in the first place
now brief me a bit, like for the first time when u tried to root ur phone with the CF-root kernel u mentioned in OP , what procedure u adopted
im not sure if this is why i got the yellow triangle problem but what i did was i accidently downloaded a wrong firmware model and i flash it.after i flash it i keep getting this yellow triangle.
oh ya about how i tried to root my phone with cf-root
1.i downloaded the XXLQ5 cf-root.
2.i downloaded odin and flash my phone with the cf root.
3.after the odin software said pass! i took out the usb cable.it started to reset my phone but i got stuck where it said "samsung s2 gt-i9100 with a yellow triangle down the text".
4.i have to flash a xxki3 kernel then flash the ics/gingerbread firmware model(exp.ics 4.0.4/gb2.3.5 any model will do.) to make my phone back to normal.
so basically i cant get pass the yellow triangle everytime i tried to flash something.

[Q] I need info

I have a stock gs2 with root permission obtained with a clockwork recovery in temporary mode.
With this cw I can install a mod rom like jellybam or I need to replace the original recovery with the cw?
If I change the rom, the internal counter change? I risk a yellow triangle on boot?
Thanks for all help you can give me, and sorry for my bad English.
[sgs2] [recovery] [odin]
CWM
...and an Odin Guide.
USB Trick, be careful...
...and if you brick it, don't panic.
Hope this helps...

If you are on stock ICS 4.0.4 be careful. Do not try to install roms on temp recovery. You need to flash a safe kernel like siyah or dorimanx. And yes you will have the yellow triangle when you flash a kernel. But its no big deal. You can easily get rid of it using Triangle away app

[Q]Install CWM

Hi,
I've tried to install CWM on Galaxy i9100 and got a yellow triangle. So I re-flashed via odin the 4.1 and got it back.
But I want to know how to install CWM and a custom ROM without get this yellow triangle.
Thanks!

You can just ignore the yellow traingle. Only if you want to send it for repair or something, then you need to remove it and put the counter back to 0. If you want to know how to do this, use search.

After flashing one of them flash any kernel/recovery/rom you want

Or use Triangle Away. With the PhilZ Kernel, however, the flash counter does not increase.

Hmm.. triangle away has always worked whenvever i use it.
If you want to get rid of it that badly i suggest you go back to stock (to remove it) and then flash a custom recovery.. and then flash PhilZ kernel. It wont affect the triangle.

Depending your rom kernel code, you can find his thread here
Please help me. My Galaxy S2 show Yellow triangle on Start Logo.And then stuck at Logo.What can i do.
If your phone is stock & isn't rooted, boot into recovery - factory reset. If your phone is rooted & is running stock earlier or older than Android 4.0.4, boot into recovery - factory reset. If your phone is running rooted stock Android 4.0.4 or if the factory reset doesn't work in other examples, get stock rom from Samfirmware, flash with Odin in download mode.
'My Galaxy S2 show Yellow triangle on Start Logo.And then stuck at Logo.What can i do' doesn't even make it remotely easy to give you help. I reckon I've done a pretty fair job given that though. If you want help in future, you need to tell us everything about your phone (rom, Android version, etc) & what you've been doing with it recently.
