2 rooting files of the same no.

CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXX_LPB-v5.2-CWM5.zip ***

CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXX_LPB-v5.2-CWM5-PROPER.zip

Earlier I had rooted my phone with LP9 cf root. Now my SGS2 i9100T has been upgraded ( ?) from 3.0.15-i9100TDULP9-CL422302 dpi@DELL149#3 build no IML74K.DULP9 to 3.0.15-i9100TDULPB-CL710191 dpi@DELL154#3

build no IML74K.DULPB. But after this upgrade the rooting seems to have been reversed.

I find 2 versions of OXX_LPB CF Root files. What is the difference and which one should I use.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
Use the "proper" one.

But they both might have *** = problems mounting secure storage.

So I recommend to move all apps to internal storage (if you have some apps on external sd card) before flashing.

Otherwise all apps from external sd card could get lost, and you will have to re-install them.

Hi hope this isn't a dumb question but looking for root on XWLPT and can't actually find any mention of LPT.

Don't suppose any kind person could suggest a possible file to try??

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
I have just flashed CF-Root v5.6 for XXLQ5 on my XWLPT ROM ... and it works fine.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] danmullen:
I'm also hoping for a CF-Root based on LPT.

I always prefer to wait for the latest version as newer kernels may have fixes or improvements that an older CF-Root won't include.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Carson_ls:
Did you perform a full wipe by using CWM on XWLPT? Was thinking to flashing XWLPT firmware then rooted with CF-Root v5.6 , then flashing a customer rom but I'm just wondering a hardbrick issue after performing a full wipe :o

Can any one give me some suggestion :confused:

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
Wipe in stock recovery, or use a "safe" kernel.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
No wipe.

I just flashed the new stock ROM with CF-Root.

Kernel causing sensors to fail

First

:

Thanks for your response.

Sorry for the my delayed response, I was off the net for a while...

My apologies.

Second

:

All the way before LQ5 (even when the device was on GB 2.3.4) I had no case sensors stopped working...

Third

:

Again, I did not use LQ5 to long (I'm not switching roms to often :eek: ) - BUT - before LQ5, I had my original provider's LP9 (with the SOD bug) and after it, I had LPD (from this thread also),

BOTH which the sensor was working correctly, but after flashing LQ5, it stopped working.

And as I've mentioned, after noticing this, I flashed back the LP9: all sensors was working... tried

again

LQ5: not working, tried LPD: working again.

Right now I'm on LPI, and all is working OK.

---------- Post added at 01:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:01 PM ----------

I had an issue with sensors in LQ5, and If you can / willing to, check this with your device, I want to verify if it is something not working in my device...

Why not someone release a tutorial for deodexing the SGSII roms?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
This is just CF-Root. It's not a ROM. It's a kernel. You cannot deodex a kernel.

If you are trying to use themes, you need a deodexed ROM. I personally don't change much from stock in ROMs I make beyond deodexing, optimising the apps, and a few minor tweaks, as everything is optional via OTA updates.

With a deodexed ROM, you can make or apply suitable themes, or use UOT kitchen etc.

you will only be able to flash a zImage (kernel) with cwm manager, but you won't be able to use the recovery itself.

this is because cwm manager can flash a kernel directly, without invoking cwm recovery.

Backup on External SD-card support

Hello,

I'm using the CWM4, and it works good.

On my other devices, I've always done the backup on the SD card.

Now, I've seen that CWM does the backup in the internal memory.

There is a way (option in CWM will be good :) ) to create the backup on external SD and not in Memory?

So in case of maximum devastation I can recover all data from SD?

Thanks for the good work!

You could always just backup normally and copy the recovery folder to your external_sd. That's how I do it.

I was preparing this answer:

maybe making a symbolic link named "clockworkmod" pointing inside the sd card.

you could try something like:

# ln -s /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/clockworkmod /mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod

create a clockworkmod folder in the sdcard before doing that (and delete or rename clockworkmod from internal storage).

but I don't know if this is ok for the recovery... if you try it make your backups ;-)

but then I realised the internal storage is VFAT :-(

so no links allowed...

You can start CWM.zip from stock recovery as a 'fake recovery'. It's the standard technique for rooting with stock kernels. You don't need root to run Nandroid from CWM touch recovery as far as I know.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] luca_vivi:
it's says installation aborted :(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
Are you sure that Kies is not running on your PC?

No process of Kies should be active (in Task Manager) when flashing with Odin.

---------- Post added at 08:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:09 AM ----------

If Kies recognizes your phone, then upgrade from GB to ICS with Kies.

But if you do not have officially released firmware (all parts) for your phone in your country, then Kies won't show any available firmware update.

Then you will have to flash the ROM you want yourself ... by Odin or when rooted use Mobile Odin app from Chainfire.

P.S.:

Upgrading from GB to ICS may need a factory reset/wipe data to have no issues.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] stanley08:
Thanks Its_Ler bro. So are you saying dat if I shud check for updates using kies, and it sees updates, wat I shud do is close kies, disconnect phone, turn off and do all necessary wipes then turn back on and update formware normally with kies.? then after update I come back here anx check for the kernel number again eg. KJ1 and den root as I did with my GB? Normal Odin way.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
Don't mix up my two answers, as they were meant for different users/questions.

If Kies recognizes your phone and shown that there is a new firmware available, then you can upgrade your firmware with Kies.

Only if Kies does not recognize your phone (showns something like "no updates available"), then you will have to flash a new firmware by yourself using Odin or (if your phone is already rooted) Mobile Odin app.

And when flashing with Odin, no process of Kies should run on your PC, as it conflicts with Odin and may lead to an unsuccessful flashing.

(This is important only when flashing with PC version of Odin.)

If your are on GB ROM and are rooted, you can use Mobile Odin app to flash a new ROM.

With the Pro app from Play store, you have an EverRoot option, so that you don't need to root the new ROM after flashing.

Alternatively you can root the new ICS ROM by flashing the correspodning CF-Root kernel (v5.6 for XXLQ5 works fine for XWLPT).

P.S.:

When upgrading from GB to ICS with Mobile Odin app, the new ICS bootloader will not be flashed. This is not so important IMO, as the GB bootloader works for ICS ROMs too. But if you want to have the ICS bootloader, you can flash it separately afterwards with PC Odin.

CF-Root for XWLPD ?

Hallo

- Can you confirm this is the correct CF-ROOT plz ?

- I'd like to know what the effect of this rooting-action will have on apps that are installed on the device ?

- What will happen in the future when Samsung/Google/... releases a new firmware ? Until now, I upgraded via Kies (not a good software btw), but I'd better don't use those official tools after rooting I suppose ?

- Is there a list of Apps that are not compatible with CF-Root ?

Mainly answered already ... just in addition:

If you find the correct CF-Root kernel, it is possible that Kies still recognizes your phone and you will be able to update your firmware with Kies.

I saw it on my father's phone (SGS 2, GT-I9100 too). He had CF-Root kernel an Kies showed "New firmware is available".

P.S.:

Didn't work on my phone, but I had a different CSC (XEU not DBT) ... I think that was the reason.

Just a quick question on which CF-root to download

My kernel reports as 3.0.15-I9100DXLPB-CL709089

CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXX_LPB-v5.2-CWM5.zip ***

CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXX_LPB-v5.2-CWM5-PROPER.zip ***

Should I be using CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXX_LPB-v5.2-CWM5-PROPER.zip?

Also, both of these reports as having problems with mounting secure storage, is that going to be a problem for general usage? Or can I use CF-Root-SGS2_XX_NEE_LPD-v5.5-CWM5.zip which is version 5.5? Thanks.
