The xperia u codename is kumquat. Are you sure you installed that one?
Did you wipe via cwm cache, dalvik cache and did factory reset?

Problem solved

Yes I used kumquat and full wiped .
But the problem is solved now! It was my fault, I'm kind of a noob and I followed the instructions step by step. Problem is that, in the instructions, the wipe is listed after flashing and not before. I figured it had no sense to wipe system after flashing, so I did it before flashing and everything went well.
I just wanted to try CM10 anyway, but it's not yet ready for daily use, so I went back to CM9. Now I have a different problem :S. Yesterday, after flashing, everything was working well, but today some system apps were not opening (phone, messages, browser, etc.. not even keyboard). I just did a full wipe (yes, again ) and reflashed CM9 and GAPPS, hope it works well this time

How to update from v 1.0
this is my first post, so yeah im a noob, but just want to ask if i was on Resurrection ics v1.0, how could i update? do i just jump to the most recent update, or is there a certain update i have to flash first before moving on? ive tried to flash the v1.4 but then it would'nt boot, then i restored a backup, tried a couple times even from a fresh stock rom, but still it couldnt boot, what do you think the problem is?
sorry for all the questions
i was on resurrection now i dual boot 1.8 with siyah 3.1.2 with D4 rom( which is amazing btw) try 3.1.2 siyah and see if it works - im avoiding RC's and betas for kernel since the brickings, unless you want the features from rc5
@yugorisfriwan you don't need to install any update, go straight to the last version.
To install
1- full wipe & wipe cache
2- install rom
3- wipe dalvik
4- reboot (it takes time to boot the first time so be patient)
5- install another kernel (siyah of instance) otherwise you are done.
Now to my question
I have the version 1.8.1 and siyah kernel 3.2b8 everything works great except that I cannot access my external sdcard on my computer. I also tried the default and thoravukk kernels but they give the same result.
Thx in advance for your help

hey i am using this remix rom right from the ver 7.4 now on v1.8.1 what i sugesst u first is 2 install v1.7 then u upgrade it 2 the new v1.8.1 by simply flashing it over v1.7 without any wipes that way u wont have any issues in installation
PS: while installing 1.7 u do a full wipe
ie
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache part
wipe dalvik cache
then install v1.7
then again wipe cache
wipe dalvik cache
Fix permissions
reboot 2 system
boot takes a while?
So how long do i have to wait for the phone to actually boot after updating? So ive flashed the updates, but when i select reboot now, it then comes to the Galaxy s ii i19100 splash screen. Now i have waited for at least 5 minutes, and nothing happened yet, so just restored my backup in fear of something going wrong am i too inpatient or is that just taking to long? how many minutes do i actually have to wait until its a sure flash fail? thx in advance!
5 minutes is too long, are you sure that you have done a full wipe before installing the rom and then wiped the dalvik cache after. The only time when my phone wouldn't boot was when I had forgotten to do the wipes.
anyway just redo the process and make sure you do everything (don't flash any kernels) and just leave the phone for few more minutes than last time. otherwise try to install another version (1.7 for instance) and see if it boots this time

hey which rom ur trying 2 install if its v1.7 of remix then first flash the cm9 kernel dwnld'ng the same from OP (original post in page 1 of remix ics thread) section after that reboot 2 cm9 recovery and then flash 1.7 it will be ok
5 minutes are too long mate. before flashing make sure that the current rom you are on has default CM9 kernel (for version 1-1.8)
After that follow the steps:
1.wipe data/factory reset
2.wipe cache partition
3.install main rom
4.go in advance and wipe dalvik cache and then fix permissions
5.wipe cache partition again and reboot
6.after ur first reboot u can then flash kernels,themes,and mods
enjoy
So... if im still on resurrection version 1.0, would installing the stock cm9 kernel work? .... then i could update?
So any workarounds on accessing the external sd on the computer?!!?

This seems to be a bug with the rom. I got the same problem on 1.4 and on 1.8.1. It will only mount the internal mass storage.
To work around this: Mount it with CWM. Works for me.

Phone rebooting when making calls

Hi Guys,
Yesterday i installed Paranoid Android on my phone ( full wipe data and cahe ) and it started to reboot when making calls.
So i decided to install CM9 RC1 and got the same problem.
I reverted back to stock and now my phone is fine.
Someone has a clue of what's happening ?
I tried different kernels but got the same problem.
Your help is appriciated.
Greetings,
PTiT
Have you formatted /system and fixed permissions?

If you are doing it through CWM
Try installing after wiping Dalvik cache available in advance.

hi.
Had same kind of issue. Random reboot/shutdown.
I installed 1.6 last night. With full wipe of everything I could find in my kernel to wipe.
then, install paranoid.
then install G-apps.
then WIPE cache again.
then fix permission.
as recommended in the official thread by the dev.
It solved my issue.
good luck.
Same problem here.
Any stock rom (including ICS) works well.
I tried installing paranoidandroid 1.6.
Factory reset
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik
Install gapps and camerafix.
wipe cache.
Set phone dpi to 184
reboot
And basically, everytime i try to make a phone call, it looks like that the phone screen (the one that displays the contact picture and the close-call red button) is crashing.
I can hear 10 seconds of phone ringing/conversation and then the system reboots, showing me the boot animation.
The only way to fix this, so far, is by installing a stock rom
..probably I am missing something, but I cannot get it working.
I resolved mine by reverting to a GB stock rom and flashing the lastest nightly from there.

yes i did :/
Just restart the phone and see if it works, else just reinstall the ROM, i.e. Do a factory reset + wipe cache partition + format system + wipe Dalvik cache, followed by installing the ROM followed by installing gapps and then reboot.

this happens randomly for CM9, the wizard will restart if it doesn't you can try my method(assuming you have all the files in your SD card)
1.Flash stock Rom (2.3.4)
2.install CWM and root
3.Flash Kernel
4.flash Baseband
5.Go to CWM, restore to factory defaults, clear cache and dalkiv(optional)
6. flash CM9 then G-apps then Accelometer fix(optional)
7. reboot
again the setup wizard my crash or stop but it'll restart and work
goodluck!

[Q]

hi .am using xperia u,and have installed kernel phantom.while installing firebean i had a problem.1ly the boot animation is visible and not able to enter into the menu.pls give me some suggetions to over come this problem..
tnks..
did you wipe cache and dvalik and data before flashing?

Enter in to recovery, wipe cache/dalvik and reboot system, if it don't works then reflash the ROM.
If you are installing the ROM by flashing from CWM Recovery, wipe cache/dalvik before flashing.
If you are installing a custom ROM over another ROM might also cause this problem. so clear data also..

try flashing another custom kernel, and try to enter into recovery.. if you can enter clear cache, data, dalvik and try booting system.
If this doesn't works you might be doing something wrong. please re do the things which I told you in the previous post. It seems you are skipping some parts.
Flashing Stock FW for Xperia U must bring you out of this. Have you tried out finding the correct FirmWare for your device. I think the latest FW is based on jelly bean and build version is 6.2.A.x.xx....

hello,
i never posted here before but i am following this site for a while and flashed lots of roms using the data here.
i got into a problem trying to flash the kitkat on my HTC sensation 4G.
i am using ATM the android 4.2.2 CM 10.1 albinoman887 rom.
i tried installing the android 4.4.1 according the instructions posted by android1234567 here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2530073
i did factory factory reset, cache wipe, and davlik wipe
after that flashed the Kernel Aroma installer, the rom and the gapps from this link.
after i flashed them i rebooted and the phone doesnt pass the reboot screen, got stuck on it for few seconds and then restart and stuck again.
could anyone help me resolve this?
thanks ahead.
Dan
