Hello everyone
I have problem with installing custom rom. For now i have Blekota S5 Lite ROM v10, but there is update to v11. I downloaded .zip and copy to my sd. Like always, I did wipe data, cache and chose install zip. Next I chose options in AROMA and chose to do one more wipe data. ROM started installing but there is problem. It blocked on wiping . I'm waiting 10 minutes and it is still blocked.

It looks like the reason it locked up was that you wiped your system ie your rom you should have done a data wipe instead. I was just about to give you instructions on how to do that but looks like you solved it yourself lol

hello to all
well i have tested a few ROM´s but the Custom Stock Rom (Codenam: ETERNITY) is one of the best in my opinion.
I have flashed this Rom, and it worked realy fine, my first mistake was that i did not make a backup, and my second mistake was that i have tried to flash some Mod´s.
After flashing a few Mod the Rom does not working correctly, anway i though i reflash it again, but that was not so easy as i thought.
After four time flashing, it did not work, so i thought, i flash the Original Samsung Firmware (i downloaded from Sammobile) so after flashing i rooted my S2 again and the Rom Eternity download it again, and save it in my mobile, in CWM window, i have follow this instructions.
Installation Pocedures:
If you're coming from ICS Roms, Stock Roms, AOKP/AOSP Roms or Custom Roms:
Download the zip file.
Put it in either internal or external SDCard.
Reboot in recovery, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache.
Go to Mount and storage, format preload.
*If you do not have fromat preload in recovery (Except Philz and Jeboo kernels), Please go to Other Links section on 1st post to get the GS2ROMWipe. Then, run this in recovery*
Install the ROM.
After installation finish, reboot your device.
The first boot will take several minutes.
Please allow 5-10mins to let the media scanner to finish after configuring the Setup Wizard.
Then, open up SuperSU App and update it.
But it did not worked, later i have follow the instructions from the Video, the same problem.
I see only on Screen : " Samsung Brilliantly Stock Custom Stock ROM"
Please allow 5-10mins to let the media scanner to finish after configuring the Setup Wizard.

So I desperately need help here! Using a GT-i9300 here.
Been at this for like 7 hours or so.
Was running a 4.1.2 rom for quite a while, thought I'd bump it up to 4.4.2 today.
Was thinking about flashing Resurrection Remix rom, so did the usual downloaded the files but noticed somewhere you need a 4.2.2 or above rom already in use to be flashing a 4.4.2. So went to S4 revolution rom (4.2.2). Then decided to flash the 4.4.2 rom.
Did the usual, data wipe, cache wipe, dalvik cache wipe. Flashed the rom. Then Gapps.
Now here's the messed up part, after flashing the phone would boot to the Rom logo. And it hasn't moved since. Thought something was up, flashed it again, did the take battery out thing also.
Thought it would be a ROM problem, so flashed 2 other roms. Neat rom and Gummy rom. Same result.
The 4.2.2 rom is working btw. So any ideas?!
Please! Reallly want the 4.4.2
Thank you!

Please read the RR thread again. You need a full wipe for it to work. Try a 4.3-based Rom like Omega and then search XDA on how to do a FULL wipe. Then proceed with RR.

Thanks for the reply. But could you please elaborate on how to do a full wipe? Kind of a newbie to all this. Thanks!

Sorry, I've forgotten the link to the method. Maybe someone else can also shed light on this matter.
But if I remember:
- Wipe Cache,
- Wipe dalvik,
- format /system,
- format /data,
- format /cache.
- Then install the Rom.zip.
PS: Don't do "format /data and /data/media" section or it will delete everything on the internal SD. If you do this, make sure you have an external SD with a ROM placed in it (don't wipe this too) otherwise you will end up in a very difficult situation like i did

If I am not wrong, formatting data will not erase the root directory. Where u put the rom zip. But just have an ext sd card just for safety.

You're right. "format /data" does not erase the root directoy. But I found "format /data and /data/media and /sdcard" option deleted everything on my S3 and even adb sideload failed for me after selecting it. After that I had to reflash stock via Odin.
+1 to ext SD
~ RazorMC
Usually I would just flash the mega wipe zip to get the device clean (only leaves ext. sd) and then start reflashing from scratch. I find it easier than doing it manually in recovery.
@RazorMC @JellyYogurt
Hey! Sorry got a bit busy but just got around to what you all recommened today and it's still no use.
Did everything this time.
First, I tried flashing the RR rom with the full wipe as you said. Oh and I'm using CWM 6.0.4.7
- Moved the zip file to ext SD
- wipe data
- wipe cache
-wipe dalvik cache
- format /system,
- format /data,
- format /cache.
During this got a status 6 error with the RR rom and I had put a Gummy Rom (4.4.2) just in case so tried the same process with this also but got a status 7 error with this one.
Left both, downloaded CM 11. Did the same process while on the 4.2.2 rom with it. This got stuck on the boot screen. Like the CM logo was going around for 30 minutes.
Finally when I couldnt tolerate it, removed battery, moved to 4.2.2 again and downloaded a 4.3 rom. Again, CM.
You wouldnt believe this but this also didnt work! This got stuck on the same thing. CM logo is still flashing around. Been watching this for 20 minutes now.
So, you guys got any ideas? Really pissing off.
Btw, thanks for the previous replies )
Oh and btw, would it matter if I didnt flash gapps after flashing the rom?
Those are just for the Google services and not related to whether the rom is booting up to home screen right?

Try other recoveries to see if problem still there try latest PhilZ recovery (this as a setting for wiping and installing new roms)..if that does not work try twrp recovery..
No you don't have to flash gapps after flashing you can do that later..

Try a stock-based 4.3 like omega rom after flashing stock 4.1.2
Use Philz Recovery like tallman43 said. I prefer that over others.
If it doesn't work then maybe there's some compatibility issues.

Hey guys, I decided earlier today to flash the new fusion 2.0.6. rom over my 2.0.4 on my galaxy i9300 (galaxy s3). However, I'm now stuck in bootloop. I've tried everything I know of, wiped dalvik and cache, wiped data, reinstalled the rom.. To no avail
Anyone who can help me?
Can you go into recovery.? If yes and if you have another rom setup on your SD card install it after wiping data.

Help guys. So my problem is that, my SG3 I9300 is keep on rebooting. It'll just boot to my desktop for about 2-3 seconds then it will reboot again and again. I have to remove my battery for about half an hour and put it back on to reboot successfully. Another thing is that after it reboots successfully, when I use applications like FB / COC it also reboots on its own so as the stock camera application. Apollo is a system app like the camera right? But Apollo works without any problem unlike the camera.
I thought it is a bootloop problem, just like what I've said on my previous post. Sorry for that.
So here are the things I've tried:
1. Flash stock rom (from Sam mobile) thru Odin
2. Delete cache and factory reset in custom recovery
3. Factory reset on TWRP - Wipe everything including Internal sd - Flash Megawipe
4. Flash other custom roms thru TWRP/CWM
5. Flash stock rom thru Kies
The problem still occurs after everything I've done. So please help me
Thanks! :good:

Try another battery if not it is a faulty power button or other hardware problem. I see you have tried other roms so this rules out a software problem....

Hi,
owning Galaxy S II (GT-I9100) I tried to flash it to Lolipop 5.1
I downloaded cm-11-20150406-nightly-i1900.zip and ga_gapps-modular-mini-5.1-20150404-signed.zip
whiped data and cache.
Could not wipe dalvic cache, because there was no advanced option available.
Tried to install the nightly.zip
Error Message: E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip (Status 7)
then I tried to install the gapps.zip
Error Message: E:failed to verify whole-file-signature
Now what to do?
Please help!

First cm11 is not lollipop, its kitkat. But if you want that rom its fine.
It sounds like you have an older recovery. Flash the newest recovery of cwm or philz, or whatever you prefer. Then reboot back into recovery. Also depending on what rom you are coming from you probably need to do a full wipe before you flash those files. Format system, data, wipe cache/dalvik. And I would recommend wipe cache amd dalvik after flashing as well, then reboot into system.
Problems with modding my Galaxy SII
Hi,
ah the first mistake.: I really wanted lollypop ( this was the reason why I started all this) and I looked for it but still got the wrong file
I just went to: download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=i9100&type= and took the latest file.
I still don't get the meaning of getting a new recovery: where do I go for this and how do I do it?
I just switched off my phone and started in recovery mode then wiped the data and the cache.
Could not wipe dalvic cache, because there was no advanced option available???
So how should I do it?

First of all, relax.
Second, you can't just go around and blatantly download the latest file you see hoping for it to be a lollipop version rom. You have to read around and actually make sure what it is your downloading. You only get one chance cause if you screw up badly - hardbrick.
BTW, you won't find any lollipop ROMs on that site as there is no longer any official CM roms for S2. You can get unofficial builds from Galaxy S2 Android Development section and also kernels in the same area.
Before you flash a lollipop rom, you must first have a compatible kernel for it. Go around, read in Lollipop rom threads and see if you can find a compatible kernel for lollipop. Then go about and flash your ROM.
Good luck.
Problemss with modding my Galaxy SII
Ok, did my homework.
Installed CWM-based Revovery v6.0.4.5 via odin
Wiped all data and cache partition
Wiped dalvic cache
Installed cm-12.1-20150408-UNOFFICIAL-i9100.zip
installed pa_gapps-modular-mini-5.1-20150404-signed.zip
Everything worked fine
Then tried to reeboot system.
After a while the Samsung Logo with an exclemation mark appeaered and a bit later the last screen (with reboot system now) reappeared and that was it.
Whiped the two caches again - no change.
What did go wrong or what is missing?
When I go to -report error it shows:
/tmp/recovery.log was copied to /sdcard/clockworkmod/recovery.log Please open ROM Manager to report the issue.
