I've downloaded & copied the following file "miuiscotland_I9100-2.3.7.zip" from http://www.galnetmiui.co.uk/content/weekly-downloads to internal SD. Then, flashed it via CWM recovery after Wiping System/Data, Cache partition, Dalvik cache & Battery stats. Now, the Samsung logo appears again & again (BootLoop). I flashed Stock ROM to get the phone running (Recovery wasn't accessible before). How do I get this Galnet MIUI ROM working ?. I'm coming from AndyX ROM v5.0 (ICS) XXLPB with Kernel that came with it..
Need HELP !!! PLZ
Do a factory reset after you've installed GM. If it fails after that, do a 2nd flash without a wipe/reset.
Can't say I've ever had problems installing GM (P.S - GM is kinda taboo on XDA, might want to refer to GM forums in future).

I can't get into CWM recovery after flashing the zip, Just download mode works. Have to flash stock ROM again. Tried Siyah & Speed Mod kernel, doesn't work..
OK. So the process should be:-
1) Factory Reset
2) Install GM
If you end up with a bootloop, normally you'd go into recovery & wipe data/factory reset. And if that failed, you'd try a 2nd install without wipe.
And if that fails, which it obviously has for you, best I can offer is ask on GM forums. Unfortunately they lost their old forums recently (or decided it was too hard to restore them when they renovated their site), so a lot of good advice has been lost.
Someone in one of the few posts there now suggested installing Siyah to get CWRecovery then doing the reset, but you say you've tried that so that's a tough one.
Edit to add - Their old forums might be cached somewhere on the web, depending on how keen you are you might be able to find something that way.

Finally it's Working !!!
Flashed the wrong Siyah Kernel Before. Now, after flashing the ROM, switched off the phone & Flashed Siyah kernel 2.6.13 via Odin & Voila.. It boots !!! Thnx!
Heard about the Fluxxi kernel. Is it good in saving Battery Life ???
Glad you got it working You'll find Siyah 2.6.13 works really well with GM. All Siyah builds have.
Yes, I've heard of Fluxxi (I downloaded it), but I haven't tried it. I'm using CM9 at the moment.
No probs

Hi,
Today I tried ti flash an Android 4.2.2 Rom. First I installed Siyah Kernel and then SuperNexus 2.0.
The Problem is, that the Phone restarts while booting up Android, sometimes when the X is shown up and sometimes a few seconds later.
I made a factory reset and wiped all Data. I tried another Rom (Slim Bean) but there was the same Problem.
Please Help Me,
Maize
After you flashed rom you flashed a kernel? If yes probably kernel is incompatible else try rom nuke script and flash rom and gapps again
Send from my SGS2 I9100 with HassanROM and latest DorimanX 8.xx kernel
that doesn't work, any other Ideas??? and i didn't flash a kernel after flashing the rom

Flash rom and kernel nuke scripts via recovery.
Flash Rom.
If you still get reboots go back into recovery and wipe data/factory reset and reboot device.
Which specific model of S2 do you have?
Same problem, it's a SGS2 I9100
I've been having a problem getting any 4.3 ROM to boot after the initial boot. I've seen a few other people with the same problem and I can't figure out a fix. Thought I'd ask the general Q&A.
I've used Beanstalk and Carbon (great ROMs) a few carbon 4.3 nightlies and Beanstalk 4.3.00. I installed their 4.3 builds (after checking sums to verify download) flash gapps, wipe cahce/dalvik and boot up. Set up goes great and rom runs great. but even without installing any other apps, using no backups or anything if I reboot it sticks on samsung screen and can't get past it. Every time, I even rebooted without finishing setup and wouldnt advance past samsung.
I even flashed 4.3 rom and gapps, let it reinstall apps from market then booted to recovery and made a backup. Then could'nt reboot. But if I wipe and restore the backup it will boot fine the 1 time, but again any attempts to reboot stick on samsung screen. Wiping cache/dalvik from recovery does not help, fix permissions from recovery does not help.
Anybody have this problem and find a fix?
Ok, I tried slim bean beta 2, no luck, tried ktoons kernel, no luck. Guess I'm staying with 4.2.2 until there is some movement on this issue.
I have a Galaxy S2 intl version. I was on carbon rom with siyah kernel. All was fine then suddenly it force reboots. but while rebooting it just didn't happen. Nothing happened. The screen logo just flashes for a second and then disappears, and then nothing happens. I tried entering the recovery mode, but doesn't enter the recovery mode. The download mode is working just fine. So I flashed a custom rom with siyah kernel using ODIN, hoping it would help, but nothing seems to happen though both rom and kernel are flashing perfectly alright! Please help me recover my phone guys. Would be extremely grateful, please!
Don't use siyah on custom roms. Flash Dorimanx 9.xx through odin . Recovery should now work. Go into recovery and factory reset clear the caches and reboot. Should work fine after this.
Remember
Dorimanx 8.xx is for stock and custom rom
Dorimanx9.xx is for custom only.

Okay so I left my phone overnight, with the battery pulled out. I had flashed a stock rom before going to sleep. And i woke up and just put the battery back in to flash Dorimanx, and, something happened. The phone entered recovery mode :cyclops: I had been trying to get in the damn thing for the whole day yesterday, and today it happened, so i did as you said, wiping all that, and rebooted the phone. In a little odd fashion though, but it booted up and the setup process started, and it's working fine now. So, now I'm on a custom rom JB 4.1.2 and siyah kernel. I want a stable 4.3 on my phone. What can I do, sir? I dont wanna run into trouble again, so what would be a safe way?

I am installing the Carbon Rom, JB 4.3 as I already have a copy of it on my phone, and I'm doing it with the same previous kernel on it, ie, Siyah-s2-v5.0.1. Should this create a problem?
Yes it will. DONT USE SIYAH. Use dorimanx 9.xx for any custom rom. Including carbon rom

Okay now I'm really sorry it's starting to bug you but my phone seems to develop new problems every time I reboot. Now, I havent changed anything, On a stock rom with siyah kernel. and i rebooted, and stuck again! I am able to enter recovery mode though (CWM recovery) and download mode also. BUT, now what happens when I boot is, the samsung logo shows with the triangle and, the boot tune plays but there's nothing on the screen, it's just black, and a few secs later, it gives a small vibration, all still with the phone screen black. Later i get to know that my phone has apparently turned on, but the screen is not showing anything. I called my cell and to my surprise it rings meaning its actually ON!! Why is the screen not ON then?? Please help, kind sir! Also if you could provide me with links to the required kernels/roms or whatever else required. Eagerly awaiting your saviour reply! :crying:
You need to go bk to stock with Odin. Test and see if it still happened with fully stock rom and kernel.

Hey, problem solved now, dont know what it was though! What i did was flash the Carbon rom with siyah, and it booted and then i flashed dorimanx and its working fine now. But the gapps package is reacting weirdly. I flashed it perfectly and when i reboot, it says "Google + stopped working" and then i check the app menu and there's no google apps whatsoever. http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip I then installed play store apk and it opened up and looked fine but then that is all it did! It won't download anything. What shall I do?
Full wipe. So format
Data
System
Preload
Cache
Dalvik cache
Then flash
Rom and gapps
Then flash dori
Then reboot

I did everything! I never got the option to format preload though. Everything else went smooth. Rebooted. Same problem persists.
Go bk to recovery and factory reset. Also maybe if that don't work redownload gapps and try again. May have curupt gapps.

And to top it all off, long pressing the home button refuses to bring up the recent apps/multitasking facility now. The notification bar doesn't work.
What nightly of carbon are you on?
Edit: also format pre load must be there? Mounts and storage. under format system I think.

How do I check to tell which nightly I am on? And the first time I had done the full format, i had preload, and while i foramtted that, it gave me some error saying it couldnt do so. I completed the procedure anyways, availing no success. So, repeated it second time and found no preload option. The recovery menu seems to have changed. Is it a matter of concern? I am on a CWM recovery, apparently. and i found the preload option. tried. it says "Error foramtting /preload" how should i proceed?
Okay this is what I'm using "CARBON-JB-NIGHTLY-20131018-0102-i9100" Please help! I've run into more problems than I had anticipated! I am so worried. What should I do now?

Download 11/10 nightly and Dori 9.41.
Preload not formatting is worrying mate. Flash them and get bk to me
Try gapps for jb 4.3. It will surely work.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
20130810 is 4.3 isn't it? I'm sure it is.

I currently have a Galaxy S2 for almost 3 years it has served me really well, even after all this time i still enjoy it and it looks really good.
But 3 days ago i lost it. I proceeded to try to find where it was so i used Samsung's "Find My Phone", ended up not knowing where it was and i sent some commands to lock the phone up as soon as it connected to the internet.
So since i always have my Mobile Data turned off i googled, and finded an app (Android Lost) that can help me to turn on Data via sms, plus retrieve the phone's location. Ended up installing it via Play Store and sending an sms to register and enable mobile data.
Well i woke up next day and i finded out it was in a friend's car so i pick it up and it actually installed android lost, but wifi isnt working. I cant get it to work.
My phone is i9100 with 4.1.2 Stock + Dorimanx 8.43
Currently i have already done:
- Reflash Stock Firmware (I've flashed an European Version and my Carrier Version)
- Reflash Serveral Kernels:
--- Siyah Kernel (Cant flash via zip, i get status 7 refering build=i9300 + Cant flash via odin gets stuck at NAND Write(Ive already used Odin 3.07 and 1.3 but it doesnt work))
--- CWM KitKat Compatible
--- Dorimanx 8.43
--- Apolo 6.2b
--- PhilZ-cwm6-XWLSS-OXX
- Restore old 4.4.1 ROM with CWM KitKat compatible kernel, that worked fine.
I have already wiped data + cache + dalvik, plus i runned all cleaning scripts (GS2KernelWipe, GS2ROMNuke,...)
ROM's not working:
- 4.4.2 CM 11 Alpha
- MIUI v5
I can still make calls, send messages, use mobile data and use bluetooth.
The current problems i need to get solved are the following:
-- Wifi not turning ON
-- Can't flash ROM other than the Stock one, all Custom ROM's with different kernel's even after wipes get stuck at Samsung Logo
Honestly i've been searching and tried everything i found for the last 3 days and i still have hope because i saw someone saying that
if bluetooth works so may wifi because they are related in the same chip.
Can someone help ?
Ok Yesterday i was able to install MIUI v5 ROM after installing SpeedWizz Kernel 4.2 via ODIN.
