First off all, congratz on the 7.1 stable for the SGS2!

I am really siked to try it out this evening.

Now I have a question, I hope this is the correct thread:

On my SGS2, I'm currently running Litening ROM 6.1 with SpeedMod v27 kernel, which includes ClockWork Mod Recovery v4.0.1.4. I just downloaded ROM Manager Free but it doesn't recognize my CWM Recovery. ROM Manager Free is version 4.5.0.1.

ROM Manager tells me to first install CWM Recovery and offers me to do it. Will it break my device or is it okay to do so?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NickoPulver:
And so......i have been running this since the nightly 0.....released before the first buildboot one and phone has been without problem for me......only got better with every nightly......i don't understand why people get hung up on stable......even stock Samsung crashes phone now and then......reboot and good to go.....i don't believe i have had 10% even of all the bugs people reported and those i have had i have not used those features or settings.....so for me its always been stable.......do you own a computer with software witch never has an issue? I don't and that one is made by authorized businesses, stores.....i would rather use cm nightlys on the computer if i could......anyways its all up to every one to choose on their own.....

Hmm..I never really faced major issues with any ROMs that based on Samsung's ROM. The only worry I have is, this is my productive phone..I can't accept any downtime..random reboot..random "No-Service"..etc. So I was wondering if "Stable" is that case. If it is, I have no problems facing random "force-closes" :)

I just downloaded ROM Manager and tried to install ClockworkMod Recovery picking Samsung Galaxy S2. When rebooting from ROM manager, i get into the Android recovery 3e menu and it tells me this:

Install from package...

FInding update...

Opening Update...

Verifying update...

E: failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted

What do i do now?

When I choose to restart in recovery from my shutdown menu (Holding power button in Litening ROM) I boot fine into CWM Recovery.

But when using ROM Manager's Reboot into Recovery option I end up in 3e Android recovery with the error described before.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afilopou:
Oh my God!!What kind of replies regarding this issue.

You have 3e recovery and obviously you can not flash cm7.

Go to first post and find the link for codeworkx kernel.Open odin and select pda as the file you download.Put your phone in download mode ,connect it to your pc and flash the kernel through odin.Then download latest cm7 file,put it in your internal sdcard.Go to recovery mode( you must have cwm recovery after flashing codeworkx kernel).Do format cache and factory reset and then choose to install zip from sdcard.Select the cm7 rom from your sdcard and flash it TWICE!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djvdorp:
Thank you very much sir, I really appreciate it.

Right after your post i found out my current kernel (speedmod v27) does include CWM recovery when rebooting from the recovery menu item (it includes CWM recovery 4.0.1.4). Is that also fine to install CM7 with, instead of flashing the codeworkx kernel over the speedmod kernel first?

Because I don't know if the codeworkx kernel will work with my current (custom) Rom (litening 6.1)...

Thanks for your help.

Great effort by the CM team, highly appreciated! There's just one thing holding me back, but maybe someone can help me with this issue. I've searched for an answer, but couldn't find a proper solution. I know that the external SD card is mounted in /mnt/emmc and I know that the music player (and gallery app) find media there when I uncheck 'use internal storage'. However, I really would like to be able to use both the internal and external storage. Is there any way this can be done? Or is a fix likely to come in the future? Thanks in advance.

Maybe you flashed the rom with the new bootloader and this is the reason for the mess? What I suggest

Go to original development thread and find Intratech's post (not sure for the exact username) with the various original roms KI1/KI2 etc.Download the rom KI3 and flash it with odin.Then download codeworkx kernel and follow the steps from first post( the hard way,avoid the way with rom manager)

Guys I have some query regarding CM 7.1 release. I've read the Change Log and wiki but can't get my head on those too many things. Have NO idea about Custom ROM's, so please answer my some queries,

1- As per GSMArena stable version 7.1 is released, right? http://www.gsmarena.com/cyanogenmod_71_finally_gets_released_-news-3251.php

2- Does the BT and FM Radio work?

3- Can I install and use other kernel like Ninpho with this ROM? Will there be any prob?

And last but not the least, 4- What's the different between Nightly build and CM 7? What is Nightly?

That's all.

TIA.

1- The article posted in GSMArena said that stable 7.1 version is out. But here under Dev section it's still the version 7 and for Devs only. Please read the article.

2- FM Radio won't work, cool.

3- Well, the Kernel that comes up with CM7 does it support Voltage tweaking?

4- Got it.

Stable just means that it is usable and you are allowed to file bugs. CyanogenMod phones are always under development - our work never ends.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afilopou:
1. Have a look http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=galaxys2

It says 7.1.0 so its the same as u read in gsmarena

3.Think yes.Never played with voltage tweaking

@atinm Thanks :-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thunderger:
@ithehappy

2 - FM doesn't work, also some video codecs are broken, perhaps h/w acceleration. Touch to focus seems not to work at the moment. I don't use BT at the moment but will try soon with car audio system :D

3 - yes with an application like setcpu you can set clock speeds and voltages. But do it own your own risk. With UV I got an average battery usage about 1 % in idle and about 2,5 % in work (some email, games, weather, internet, music). Heavy load, e.g. with gps or video watching, my battery drains up to 15 % / hour.

As atinm said, CM7.1 is released for SGS2 but development won't stop. Perhaps we see CM8 nightlys at the end of the year. :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
Thanks a lot for your reply.

Well I don't care about FM Radio. But Video codecs won't work? Do you mean that .AVI (XviD/DivX) and .MKV's won't work in the Stock Video player? Well I will be sad then :( as I frequently watch this and that video in the stock player which is damn smooth.

Very glad to know Voltage tweaking is supported.

I've downloaded the signed .ZIP file which is ~100 MB. It's a zip file, so I guess I just have to flash it with CWM right? Should I wipe my system or will it work fine without wiping?

Harder way:

Make sure you're running a rooted device.

Root your device and install ClockworkMod Recovery (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1118693)

Do a Nandroid backup!

WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition) - do it for real.

Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery

Optionally install the Google Addon (through ROMManager is easiest)

For me these are the issues

- Video playback - some formats are not recognized, use an alternative app for video playback

- Camera - some modes don't work

- TVout

- FMRadio

Atinm,

The current, working version, is based on cream's BLN code (requiring Neldar's BLN Control app), somewhat cleaned up but still a work in progress. Uses a wakelock. (github/creams)

I have a working version that uses the LED Notifications settings within CM that is based off of the same code from the SGS (Pawit has been doing a lot of fixes there and I was hoping to get my code to him once cleaned up). Problem with my version is that it sometimes locks the phone - I suspect I have a mutex lock in the wrong place somewhere. Also uses wakelock. (github/dvtonder)

I have also started looking at Codeworkx's Fancy Backlight code - have been debugging to see if I can get it working. It is A LOT cleaner than any of the other code available but he chose to use ioctl rather than sysfs and call the registers directly (no wakelock) which I am trying to figure out.

I was going to post the BLN version as it is in use on all the other SGS2 Roms that support BLN today.
