[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Parrillo:
Hi Guys.

I need to know how to install CWM Recovery on my I9100 with void.echo custom kernel.

I flashed my device with UHKI2 FW (2.3.4 PT-BR) + CF-ROOT KI2. Then the CWM Recovery was installed. But when I flash the Custom Kernel with CWM Recovery, it was uninstalled.

How can I install ONLY CWM Recovery without lose the Custom Kernel ?

Sorry for my english.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HellcatDroid:
You can't.

On the S2, the recovery is part of the kernel.

If your custom kernel of choice doesn't include CWM, either live with it, or choose another kernel that has CWM.

Hi

I have a GS2 rooted by the method doomlord (i have always the original kernel)

I will install a CWM and i will save my ROM with nandroid

1) Can i install CWM 5.0.2.3 (the file attachment on the 1st post) on my GS2 (kernel I9100PBVKI3 : ROM Stock Orange France) without other modification ?

2) Can i install CWM by ADB ?

i copy the file zImage on the sd card

On the terminal : dd if=/sdcard/external_sd/zImage of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 (mmcblk0p6 i think that it's the recovery, if someone can confirmed ? thx)

3) Someone have a other method that flash by odin ?

Thanks

Worry for my english, i hope that people understand me

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HellcatDroid:
Is someone working on that at all?

I already got screen, hard- and softbutton (the "menu" and "back" ones) access working for my own stuff running in recovery mode, and was looking at the touch as well.... I could look closer and try more hard if no one else is working on that.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Entropy512:
On the GS2, the recovery partition does nothing. To get recovery, you need a kernel with CWM installed - the download in the OP of this thread is such a kernel. So you want mmcblk0p5, not p6.

Also, someone talked about CWM 5.5.x - CWM 5.5.x is epicfail when combined with Gingerbread kernels as far as I can tell. Either that or it just plain isn't finished yet. CWM 5.0.2.7 has some benefits (such as better support for external SD), but that's about it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] morg01:
Apparently Koushik is working on touch recovery, and has already posted one for the Samsung T-Mobile GalaxyS2 . . . .

http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.1.3-hercules.img

so maybe the standard GT-i9100 one won't be far behind??
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hayspat:
If recovery partition does nothing as entropy said, koush have to work on a kernel. In that situation we should wait the recovery from chainfire or teamhacksung because I think koush has no time to work on compile stuffs.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HellcatDroid:
Ah, cool then.

Yes, recovery partition on the SGS2 is completely unused.

However implementing something into a kernel image isn't too hard.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Pepski:
Literally no clue if this is the right place to ask. But, fingers crossed...

If I've made two backups with CWM - one while running Gingerbread; one with ICS - can I use the recovery option to 'flick' between ROMs?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ghost shell:
Would it be possible to partition the internal SD card (or the external) so that CWM works with an encrypted phone?

I don't know where is the mountpoint during CWM recovery, but my understanding is that if CWM mounts the external card at /mnt/sdcard/external_sd then it's impossible to use the external SD in an encrypted phone, for flashing/backing firmware.

The solution would then be, partitioning the internal SD card. But from what I read partitioning the internal SD card can be very dangerous.

So, what is the solution to this problem?

Any help or links are appreciated.

Is this kernel safe for using with the LQ5 4.0.4 leaked ROM? There is any risk of this kernel trigger the brickbug (i.e. does it have the MMC_CAP_ERASE feature enabled)?

---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:39 PM ----------

It's still good advice, but AFAIK the problem is in the Kernel, not in the whole firmware. I might be misinformed though :confused:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] thorazine74:
Could this be updated with latest CWM revovery version and a statement that this kernel is free from MMC CAP ERASE disease?

I believe it's safe judging from the sources that seem to based on but an official statement would be better.

I think this could be very useful for those on 4.0.4 stock Roms looking for a completely secure CWM revovery to perform potentially dangerous operations.

Hey guys. I flashed the recovery from.OP on my friends s2. All I get is this... in the pic below..

When enterkng recovery it only shows me this

Also the device doesnt boot. I previously flashed resurrection remix via cwm. ( the device was rooted.). Did a full wipe. The phone gave me a kernel panic error during boot. So i couldnt do anything but flashing a stock firmware. So i did that and it didnt even boot when the flashing was done. So then i installed cwm.and I got this...

EDIT: I fixed it by flashing the correct firmware (in my case UHsomething). then i let it boot up, then flashed recovery via odin, then flashed the supersu.zip for root. ;)

Hello.. I use a intl GT i9100.. I'm currently running the official UK firmware 4.0.3 (XWLP7).. I want to install this CWM inorder to install CM10 nightly builds.. Is it compatible with my phone's current firmware? I'm worried because I have got the brickbug and I have experienced certain boot issues with some of the official firmwares I installed while evading the brickbug's effect.. So I'm trying to make sure that it is safe to play with this CWM.. Also, am not rooted.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sharp87:
1. Try to know how to flash corresponding CF root file for your XWLP7 rom(google:Samsung galaxy S2 + cf root +xwlp7)

2. CM10 FOR I9100 can be installed on any S2 I9100 official stock Roms through recovery...

3. Try to research, before you proceed the above steps so that you might avoid your phone from getting bricked..

Hi Guys,

I need your help, I am not a noob but i don't know what wrong I did.

I was on Omega Rom (XXLSJ) + philz kernel CWM.

So I tried to flash the CM 10.1 but it says installation aborted....then I download it again and again the same result.

So I thought this CWM is not proper so i flashed the one provided in the first post.

It go through but phone is now soft bricked, can go in to download mode but no CWM no ROM.

Please help me asap as I am unable to use my phone

EDIT: Folks I have flashed philz kernel again and now phone is up....but how can i flash the cm 10.1?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rmsalihdeen:
CF-ROOT will give me CWM or I should flash the one that is given here. All I'm asking is if the given CWM is a complusory prerequisite??

Maybe you can try this "Using the noob-proof ODIN method:" method shown in the first post! It uses Odin!

After flashing CM9 you can then install CM10.1 on it!

I hope it works!

I am on stock ics rom , unrooted. should i proceed and flash this kernel and then root with superoneclick??? or follow the cfroot method.? btw why are there no baseband versions here in this recovery? is this one universal.. please shed some light...

---------- Post added at 06:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 PM ----------

1. am on stock ics rom

2. my device is not rooted.

3. i want cm10.1 hence am rooting my device.

4. should i proceed with this kernel and directly flash using odin? and then root via superoneclick?

5. then enter recovery and follow the method on the cm thread.

am i going correct? why isnt there any baseband versions specified in this recovery?? will this work irrespective of whatever the baseband version be?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] karthikcs:
First of all, clock work is not kernel. Thus is recovery software. You will need this for implementing CM10.1. However you don't need to root explicitly. CM10.1 will provide root access by default. So you need to do following

0. Take backups, contacts, messages, call log photos and audio files

1. Instal CWM recovery using Odin

2. Go ahead and instal CM10.1. As a process you would need to do full data wipe.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
so i should directly flash this recovery 5.5 as instructed? using odin? and then enter the recovery and flash cm10.1?

After that it was all downhill from there. Installed CyanogenMod 10.1 Nightly and Google Apps through recovery. Now I'm just waiting for my new screen to arrive. CyanogenMod keeps getting better with each new version. Updating the installed rom is a breeze with the built-in OTA feature.
