[Q] Huge problems. (Doesnt boot, kernel panic) - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey.
My friend has a galaxy s2, GT-I9100
It had the stock rooted ics rom on it.
He had some problems with it and I decided to flash resurrection remix on it.
I did a full wipe( wipe data/fact reset, wiped cache, wiped dalvik cache and formatted /system)
Then I installed the rom. It flashed succesfully. So I rebooted, and during the boot i got the kernel panic thing.
I couldnt get into CWM anymore.
Then I flashed a stock image via odin.
The phone rebooted when it was done. It cant even get past the "gt-i9100" screen...
So then I tried installing cwm via odin.
When entering recovery, I get a android poppet with a loading bar under it. The loading bar freezes.
See this pic.

Possible Brick HELP!!

Thank you in advance.
I just got my SGS2 back from repair today (stuck pixel) and I wanted to installe CM9. I thought I'd start with the latest CWM - the link was broken so I flashed CWM 4.0.0.8, which flashed fine.
When the phone rebooted, it sat in a loop doing nothing. I then flashed CWM 4.0.1.4, which also did not help. I attempted to wipe cache using CWM. A heap of errors scrolled down the screen. I thought I'd restore back to factory kernel and rom, which I did. I am still in bootloop and I have the following text on screen when I go to stock recovery

I assume you can enter download mode right?
just flash stock rom via odin..you should be fine...refer intratech thread..
It's like CWM, but very limited options and yes, download mode works fine. I wonder what has caused this issue?

dunno...most likely you flash wrong rom without reading first...or your zip file not finished download....
check you file..name, actual size before flashing
I hadn't even gotten as far as flashing a ROM, to obtain root, I attempted to use CWM, that is when things went wrong
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458 try this even i got strucked like that wen i tried to flash custom rom
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
That would work, but multiupload is busted
Wipe data/factory reset, clear cache.. The it will start a fresh.. Then re-root if needed.. Hope this helps
This post was most of the solution. After this, I could flash an old version of CMW that worked. Following that, I could flash cyanogen mod 9. Thanks to all

[Q] Lost Root and can't get it back

Hi Guys
I flashed my phone with ICS f/w Lightening ROM but I didn't like it because of FCs and higher batter consumption so I decided to come back to CHeckROM v6 and Phenomenol Kernel.
I did a data wipe, partition wipe, dalvik cache wipe before flashing CheckROM over Lightening ICS ROM and again deleted dalvik cache after installing Phenomenol Kernel.
Now I don't have root. I'm unable to use Applications like Root Call Blocker, Root Explorer and Voltage Control
I tried flashing my phone with different Kernels like N.E.A.K , RedPill etc but didn't get root back. What could be the issue ?

Flash chainfire kernel in original development thread using odin.
Thanks, that's what I'm trying right now.
I have downloaded concerned firmware from his thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14733439&postcount=534 and flashing as I write. I'll report back
"I did a data wipe, partition wipe, dalvik cache wipe before flashing CheckROM on Lightening ICS and again deleted dalvik cache after installing Phenomenol Kernel. "
sentance is not clear, are you still on ICS and flashed kenrel on that, or you flashed the Phenomenol, N.E.A.K , RedPill, etc after flashing checkrom ??
EDIT : if you are on Checkrom V6 and you lost root then just unzip this file to get TAR file and flash from ODIN http://download.chainfire.eu/144/CF-Root/SGS2/CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXA_LA4-v5.0-CWM5.zip you will gain the root
Now on CHeckROM. I was explaining what all I did before returning to GB ROM from ICS ROM

Thanks my friend. I download the exact same file but getting some error flashing this Kernel from CWM. I also extracted the .tar file and tried via ODIN but ODIN doesn't detect my phone in DOwnload mode
Please note that I'm able to connect my phone to Laptop in normal mode i.e to transfer files.

Thanks a lot bud. After installing Kies, I was able to use ODIN and flash the tar file. Got root back and not flashed my favorite Kernel over it. Root is retained. Thanks again

It's my pleasure,
you can use Kitchen from Checkrom to download your favorirte kernels and flash....
if falshing directly not working from Kitchen you can now manually do it from CWM...
get into the checkrom thread and explore....everything is discussed there....
Yeah, I know that but since I lost root, KichenROM was not able to automatically boot in CWM and flash those downloaded file, I had to manually flash them.

Questions about s2

Hello, a few days ago i rooted my galaxy s2. I installed the multiwindow mods which turned out to be for a deodexed xxlsj(im dunning jelly bean xxls8) rom. After i installed it, a message android is upgrading showed up. Now every time i turn on/reboot my phone it shows anroid is upgrading and when i access the battery in the setting the phone freezes and reboots it sometimes gets stuck on the samsung galaxy sii boot screen so i have to restore the software for it to boot again.
Also i was thinking of installing neat rom, i have read that i should back up everything before i install a rom but it is in .zip so if a installed it through recovery would all my data be erased.

And your question is.....?
Oh, right, we don't even know what model you've got.
If it's an I9100, flash siyah v6 if you're on JB, siyah v5 if you're on ICS.
Flash a custom ROM via CWM.
That, pretty much, sums it all.
Sent from the little guy
Its a GT-I9100 and it's on jelly bean i think that it's obvious since i said i am using xxls8 which is the build of jelly bean. As for my questions, the first one is how do i remove android is upgrading that appears whenever i boot my phone? The second one is will installing neatrom from cvm delete my data too?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
To be honest, I didn't read your post carefully, but I assumed right.
You'll lose your data so back up before you flash.
Edit: you got all the process posted right above your previous post.
Sent from the little guy
Flash Siyah 6.0b5, boot into recovery, do a Backup, flash your custom ROM, hit the thanks button, ENJOY
He already has a back up.
Sent from the little guy
So skip the backup step.

I also have another question: how do i remove android is upgrading when i boot my phone?
By flashing a new ROM or by wipping cache and dalvik (not on 4.0.4 of course).
You can get it to boot right?

I've tried wiping dalvik cache and wiping the cache partition before but the ''android is upgrading screen'' is still present upon booting.So is my only hope installing a rom but what i'm afraid of i wouldn't receive the new 4.2.2 jelly bean update that may be released.
Don't worry about that, you can flash your country/region after you get back on your feet.
Sent from the little guy
You can already get 4.2.2 on your gt-i9100, just check out the "Galaxy S II Android Development" and "Galaxy S II Original Android Development" section for the ROMS
Cheers
I think he meant the official release.
Sent from the little guy
You can download the official ones from sammobile.com /firmwares

No 4.2.2 official release for the moment for the S2, you have to wait

If you are unlocked bootloader than flash TWRP 2.7.1 or Philz touch CWM than try to flash rom.
or Flash stock TOT then root then unlock bootloader and do above steps.
Choice is yours.

boot in recovery
Wipe data and format system
Flash rom and Gapps
wipe cache and delvick cahce
reboot

Problems with bootloop i9300

Hi i'm pretty much new in rooting world
I have rooted my old i9300 s3 and now i have problem with marshmallow roms.
every 6.0.x rom works on my phone without gApps (tried all packages)
when I flash rom and gApps its stuck in 23app update bootloop...
I've red somewhere that 6.0.x ROMs need to be patched, and CM13 is patched but it still does that. For flashing i installed Clockworkmod
