Softbrick lol. Back to PC with odin. Downloading drivers :/

Well not yet. I dont have odin flashable tar file in my internal SD and now I cant access it can I?

I either have to flash GB version of KL1 and then flash CM9 tar version

OR

Mr. Chethan had posted a magic kernal like many months back. Its to be used when I loose my recovery. I cant access reveovery you see, but only download mode. So, shall i flash this magic kernal? Or CWM recovery? Or Flash GB tar?

I cant wait for downloading ICS stock ROM. It will take like 3 hours! I got messages to reply in my cell lol.

EDIT: Here is the CWM by chetan: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21804575#post21804575

I understand that you are on stock and you want to install resurrection remix..

1. Download http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.1.5-galaxys2.zip in to your phone

2. Switch off phone

3. Go to stock recovery by using this combo vol up+home+power

4. Browser for the recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.1.5-galaxys2.zip and flash it --> you get cwm here.

5. repeat 2-3 again and you will land up in cwm recovery

6. Download RR rom and flash it with CWM recovery..

Edit make sure after step4 you make a nandroid backup.

If you want to stay on KL1 then you will need to root with a right version of cfroot kernel or some custom kernel via odin or mobile odin.
[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
I think the problem was you performing nand backup between gb and ics.Hope your phone is not bricked
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Exactly. I nandroid restored my CM9 backup in GB :p Well no one said don't do that. Just waiting for drivers to download. Its soft bricked.

EDIT: Will flashing a CWM tar help? Or i flash whole GB ROM again?
[Galaxy S II General] safepacket:
I am pretty sure the reverse works i.e I am on ICS and i restored back my GB all was fine with out softbrick for me.
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Yes now I remember. I have done reverse too once and it wasn't a problem. Its like you can open Office 2003 files in 2007, but cannot open the other way.
[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
Why not flash the odin version of cm9?
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Its in my internal SD :( To download again it will take like 2 hours!
[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
Damn slow internet bro.
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Did you change the dpi?
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Well lol. I flashed CWM from here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21804575&postcount=9740

I got a very old CWM where it cant detect the external SD where I had kept my nandroid backups.

Well checkROM zip file was in internal. Flashing it now :D
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
@ harsha

Do you have any one of the official ics roms in your backup? If so flash it via odin. And things will be back to normal
[Galaxy S II General] mrcreativity:
If you can access CWM recovery, you can copy it by mounting your sd card.
[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
Firstly why GB?
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Actually cm9 only runs on gb bootloader

Try flashing any stock ics rom from Odin and then cm9 = bootloop

Cm9 won't work on ics bootloader
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Yes, but its in my internal SD. So as soon as I get my homescreen I am putting it to desktop.

Oh this i did not know. You can copy a file from internal to external SD in recovery?!

You mean why i went to GB from ICS? Well ICS was giving me weired wifi problems. So went back to GB and GB is so screwed up like ICS is better than anything.

But if you asking why I am flashing GB now, its because my CM9 tar file is in internal SD and I want to phone to boot up to copy it to desktop.

Oh well finally booted up when I nandroid restored my GB verions! Yey!
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
@bala thanks for video
[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
I meant why you went to GB?
[Galaxy S II General] Raven'sSight:
How about this

Flash siyah. Flash stock ROM with mobile odin pro with everroot option checked !!!

Should give what you want i think.
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Had got sick of ICS. So went to GB. But now I got sick of GB so coming back :)

But it says "Make sure you're running ICS bootloaders lower than LPH! (if you're unsure, flash the CM9 Resurrection Edition)"

Loweer than LPH is GB?

So I downloaded CM9 Resurrection Edition 0420. But the file name after download it reads as: cm-9-20120420-ODIN-galaxys2.tar.tar

But in download link it is cm-9-20120420-ODIN-galaxys2.tar.md5

Should i just rename or flash directly?

EDIT: Renamed it to md5 and now I have a working CM9. Phew!
[Galaxy S II General] Raven'sSight:
Hilarious !!! :D

i am suddenly reminded me of a CPU name governor though :p :D
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I want S3 now but can't buy.If I sell S2 for 22k and N900 for 12k it might work but it is not reaching S3 price = fail and Who will give 12k for N900? and need to add 4-6k more for S3 *BOOM KICKED OUT OF HOME* .........May be Next year I can buy S4 ;)

Spent almost 35k total for S2 and it's accessories and 25k for N900 so heart saying no don't go but mind saying go
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
That's the way how I upgraded to cm9, flashing it from official ics
[Galaxy S II General] Debadatta:
I flashed LPQ over GB without updating the bootloader and its running fine! Why do all the opposite things happen to me? :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] zyryn:
LOL, BFS :p
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
i sold my s2 for 20k..its not increasing beyond that over here..may be i could have bargained for rs 500 more..hope i did the right thing ?? :(
[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
Always listen to your heart.If every one goes for s3 me and some other users will be bored
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Same here. I flashed it over my official ICS.

Well I think I should ediit that.

"Never restore ICS nandroid backup to GB"

Giuys! Finally on Paradroid! Everything is soon small :p

@Surya thank you for the help. You got so many thanks today in a one day like never before lol.

@bala. You still over paradroid or went back to bezek?
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Its always confusing, Dil ki Suno Ya Dimagki:confused::confused:
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
I got my phone for Rs 28490 ( yes..right in July ;)).

And in my 34 days of extreme dev activities over here helped me earn some Rs 2500 over here on xda ;)

so cost is 28490-2500=25990

so Rs 5990 depreciation i had to bear..Its ok :) lolzzz.. I think its OK.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I'm thinking same

Dil ki kyu ki dil left main hota magar hamesha right hota hai

[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:

[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
Guys how to make the phone good as new..Shall i format the internal memory??Or just manually delete all the files..Never ever formatted my S2..so thats why i am asking..
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Flash a stock ROM and then use a code which was given by karchru in this thread a few weeks back. It will format EVERYTHING including the internal SD.

So this way you have a stock ROM and a clean device too. I will search for the code and get back to you.
[Galaxy S II General] segag:

And remember the magic kernel you had posted many months back when I had lost recovery? Before that you had uploaded the CWM. Well I used it again lol. Thank you ;)

[Galaxy S II General] Raven'sSight:
If i can read people right and i think i can, you'll have the S3 by december this year :p :D
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
for that I need to sell N900 for around 12k .....Once I can kick N900 for 12k than I have HUGE HUGE chances to get S3
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
ha ha , i read your mind much earlier, someone wanted s3 for 45+k , where is he? :D
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Are you still on paradroid? Which DPI have you setted to?120 is actually too small to read the texts. Even after setting the test size to huge. There should have been extra huge font size.
[Galaxy S II General] emze:
ICS is FINALLY out for Note. FIIII-FRIGGIN-NALLY... oh, btw, i am NOT planning on S3 at the moment. most likely go for Note 2(not 10.1) or thenextnexus IF it is made by samsung
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
it stays at tablet mode only @ 120 dpi, if i change it to 160 it returns to normal mode :( , ya huge was good at most of the places but for some texts it is not enough at all.

btw i restored my default setup from nandroid :) not in paranoid now

---------- Post added at 10:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 PM ----------

I wonder what Note 2 will get apart from the quad core processor? Note has all the other things. lets see what samsung have in their pockets, i hope its not empty :p
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I still want price to be 45k+ but if the price is below 37k I have chances and guys OT: I still have my old laptop fan broken(3 are left in 10),CD drive not working,Sometimes screen will become red will any one buy it if I keep it in ebay for around 10k brought for 42k
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Forget S3 and tell me about latest cm9
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Who flashed latest CM9? I'm still on 08 one ....Overall Good

Maybe I will wait till Note 2 and than select or wait 6 more months and get S4 ;)

i think u missed my post in sgs3 thread, made an inquiry from a local retailer he said the price will be from 32 to 35k. he was so sure about it ...
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I gave answer......I still want it to be 45k+ ......

It will be 45k+ for 64GB .........If your spidey sense didn't became false I will kill you :p

---------- Post added at 09:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 PM ----------

titanium works fine for me. dont back up system data. just back up apps that u installed and while restoring use the missing apps option.

in general i do a clean wipe when I flash ROMs.
[Galaxy S II General] mrcreativity:
Ok my problem is definately firmware related.

I installed the KI3 with the new boot loader and everything works fine. 3G, GSM and auto all work like when i bought the phone.

Does a different bootloader have anything to do with the network?

Is there anyway of knowing what version of the bootloader I have after flashing a firmware?

Just flashed the old boot loader and the problem shows up again and flashing the new boot loader only doesn't help.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
I don't believe.

I am having battery drain problem again! It came from nowhere! Only in Standby, nothing in BBS! No AOS bug. No idea what's going on!

It was 2-3% overnight, now it's 10-11% !
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I was Hungry so I ate the Battery :p I am having same problem..

Happy Diwali :)
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Happy Diwali to you too. Jeez, Swype had Diwali in dictionary, wow.

I guess this is because of a new ROM, maybe I should give it some more time. How much drain do you have overnight, with Wifi, Data off, Network on?

On KF3 it was max 3%, sometimes it wouldn't even drain! Had more than 100 apps installed that time, now I've only 30!

My graph,

As you can see the Display On time is great, but the excessive drainage is occurring in Standby!
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Wifi Off,Data Off... Alarm On for less than 7 hours = 8%+ battery drain before with Alarm it was 2%-3% Right now I am at 30 too
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I think this is not bad but 17% Android Os is not good
