[q] stuck in boot loop - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone.
I really need some help.
So I was rooting and trying to flash Omni rom to my i9100.
Used this root and CWM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...lz-cwm6-stock-kernel-cwm6-root-exfat-t1877270
Installed it through stock recovery. Everything was good.
Then i went to make a backup in CWM, it didn't complete.
And then I downloaded omni rom, did a factory reset, wiped dalvik and normal caches.
Then I tried to install it. It stopped and i received an error.
Now I'm in a bootloop. Only seeing Samsung Galaxy s2 logo, then a black screen and that logo again.
After seeing logo 2 times I'm in CWM.
How do I fix this? How do I even flash Omni rom?
This is the log:
Installing: /sdcard/omni-4.4.2 i9100 - nightly.zip

Warning: No file_contextsset_metadata_recursive: some changes failed.

Installed new kernel and CWM.
Fixed itself.

[Q] Problem with CWM 4.0.0.2

Hi there,
recently got my S2 and was looking to put the Cyanogen mod on it. I found the thread to install it but when I get to "step 2, reboot your phone to get into recovery"
I get the text
ClockworkMod Recovery v4.0.0.2
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to veriy whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Any ideas whats wrong? I googled it and found...
The famous ROM Manager that is usually used to install ClockworkMod Recovery tool is not compatible with the updated Galaxy S due to new kernel Recovery 3e that needs signature verification for flashing external files.
The solution is to replace the kernel based on Recovery 2e that permits installing unverified signature files. Thanks to developer of XDA ‘Chainfire’ who has come up with working tools that lets you install ClockworkMod Recovery on the Samsung Galaxy S I9000 running the Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread (XXJVK) ROM.
Link to this example is: http://www.dkszone.net/install-clockworkmod-recovery-on-samsung-galaxy-s-running-android-2.3.3-gingerbread-xxjvk
Anyone know if this is the ONLY way to install CWM properly or is there another fix?
Signature related error appears when you haven't flashed the zImage of your rooted kernel via CWM. Flash it and it will disappear.
Regards.
how would I accomplish this? I flashed my ROM at the moment by using Odin tools
Your rom lite-ning rom 6.1 should have the proper cwm built in, sounds almost impossible that you're getting this error. Are you booting into cwm through rom manager? Or with Vol up+home+power?
I was trying both methods to get into CWM and got these errors everytime.

Clockwork Mod Touch

Hi Guys,
Need a bit of help here.
I bought the clockworkmod touch yesterday, I flashed it, but when I went into recovery it wasn't touch, so I wiped cache, dalvik cache etc...and then isntalled the update.zip to no avail it said "E: failed to verify whole-signature", I tweeted @clockworkmod, and he said it was because I was using SpeedMod Kernel.
So I moved over to Siyah kernel, installed that fine and restored my data/cache using CWM when it booted. I then try to flash ClockworkMod Touch through ROM Manager, the green bar fills, and then says "Succesfully downloaded ClockworkMod recovery!"
I click ok, and then go to "reboot into recovery" I'm presented with red text that says:
E:missing bitmap password_highlight (code-1),
E: missing bitmap password_confirm_45 (code-1),
E: Missing Bitmap password_retry_45 (code-1)..."
I'm then presented with:
Installing Package...
Opening Update Package
Verifying Update Package...
E:Failed to verify whole-file signature
E:Signature Verification failed.
Installation aborted
I've then gone into three button method, and tried to apply, /sdcard/update.zip and it comes up:
Finding update package
Opening update package
E: Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
(No such file or directory)
Installation aborted
I'm running the following setup:
Model:GT-I9100
Android: 2.3.5
Baseband version: I9100XXK14
Kernel Version: [email protected] #294
Build number: Gingerbread.XWKJ1
I would like it if I could get this fixed without using Odin, as i'm at work most of the time and because of some stupid drive encrytion I can't put my phone in without encrypting it, BSkyB's rules apparently. I have tomorrow off, so I can if neccesary boot my laptop up and fiddle with odin.
Just wanna get this sorted, I purchased this and wanna use it.
Any help is much appreciated.
You have to wait until devs add this to their kernels/ roms
Sent from my sgs2 running cm9 using xda app
Is there no kernel that can support it?
I actually don't really care which kernel I use, aslong as it 's Stock rom for now, then I may look at new 4.0 roms/kernels when they've been out a good few more months, and when obviously clockwork mod touch is more commonly added to kernels/roms.
A guess its Rom Manager as SGS2 does not like it .
As this is an app their is a thread in the applications section .

How'd you fixed it?
K, I was at ICS 4.0.4 rooted then decided to downgrade to HC stock to back it up (since ICS is buggy).. After flashing HC, I'm stuck at bootloop.
Then I have no choice than to flash it up from there, since I can still access recovery 3e.. Firstly i flashed CWM using odin, then tried to update CM10 from my external sdcard... then the same error from aboves shows up.
Pls. help, idk any options left.. BTW I wiped data and cache using CWM.
Thanks in advance :crying:

help me - error cyanogenmod CWM recovery

Hello guys,
via CWM Recovery 6.0.4.4 I just can not install the CyanogenMod nightly 11.
When I go to install comes out the error:
"set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
error in / data/media/0/cm-11 .... (status 7) "
With the stable 10.2 everything is in good order. So I thought I'd update via the operating system, but once downloaded the update the phone will reboot into recovery and it turns out the same error, with the inscription "aborted" and the android doll on the ground.
how I can fix this?

[Q] Samsung GS3 i9305 ROM instalation

Hello,
I am trying to install a rom on my phone but it's not really working out the way I hoped. I got blockworkmod running on my S3 and I tried to install the carbonROM file for my device. This returned the following message after about 20 seconds of installing:
set_metadata_recursive: some changed failed
E: Error in /external_sd/CARBON-KK-NIGHTLY-20141106-1232-i9305.zip
(status 7)
Instalation aborted.
When I tried to install cyanogenmod to the device it didn't do anything, it just imediately returned to the homescreen on clockworkmod.
What can be the problem here and what should I do to be able to use the phone again with any good ROM?
NOTE: I am very new to this stuff, with installing ROMs and rooting my phone.

*coughs*
