Hey, I seem to be having a problem installing the ROM. I boot into CWM, do a factory data reset, clear the cache, clear the dalvik cache, and install the ROM from the zip file. But when I reboot the phone it stays on the Galaxy S II screen with the yellow warning triangle indefinitely. I've tried multiple times and can't seem to get past that screen. I was able to install and run MIUI just fine and I can switch back and forth between MIUI and my main ROM, Cognition S2, using nandroid backups with no problem. Anyways, I'd really like to give CyanogenMod a try, can anyone help?

Honestly, I have no idea. I downloaded so much stuff, pretty much everything I came across that looked interesting, that I don't know anymore where half this stuff comes from. :p

Go find the thread with all the stock roms in the original dev section, flash one via odin or CWM like you flashed this rom.

Hello,

I installed 2 days ago the cyanogen and i'm under testing. I must say that this ROM is quite interesting and very promising and i'm waiting for a full Audio compatibility, perhaps an improvement of The email soft (The Samsung one is great for exchange email). But i have one question i did not find answer : is it possible to save pictures/photos on The external SD card instead of The internal one ?

Hey guys, anyone use the new market in these nightlies? I lost my phone last week, got a new one today, did a clean install of latest nighlies, but flashed the latest gapps found on modaco forums (with the new versions, including the new market).

All good, but the new market FC every time after like 15s.

Reinstalled, same effect.

Wiped again, flashed again CM with the new gapps, same story.

I had to go into RomManager and flash the somehow old gapps from there, and voila, no FC in this market.

Therefore my question: is the current build incompatible with the new market? No biggie, though I liked it more.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikeracer4487:
Huh, I didn't see that (and still don't see it), but flashing it then rebooting recovery and flashing again did the trick, thanks!

hi guys

i am trying to move to this mod from cognition and am following the instructions

i have rommanager premium installed and used it to flash clockworkmod latest version (4.0.1.5)

the next step says check you can reboot into recovery mode but...i cant

it reboots and starts to load with a progress bar then stops about halfway and gives me an exclamationmark in an upside down triange with the wee android guy next to it - only way can i clear this is by removing the battery. once i resert the battery clockworkmod recovery loads but it loads an earlier version (4.0.0.8) which was installed for me by someone when they set up cognition for me

so considering i cant reboot into recovery mode proper i am not confident that i should continue with the rest of the steps. i have gone into manager applications but i cannot remove CWM application from there

ive tried uninstalling rommanager (and pro licence) and reinstalling to no avail

can anyone help? im really lookin forward to trying out this rom

thanks

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IIIPowerIII:
You should have backed up your rom anyway so you could restore it. Always backup before installing new rom or theme.

Works for me too (Nightly 22)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangiers:
I assume you have made a backup of your existing rom before you tried installing CM.

Use a file manager to find where the cm nightly zip is located.

Using Quick Boot, a free app, reboot into recovery. Don't do this from Rom Manager.

When in recovery, do a factory reset and wipe Dalvik under advanced options.

Then install zip from sd card, choose zip, go to where the cm nightly zip is. Flash and all should be fine.hhave

Once you have cm running you can use rom manager to reflash a nightly but choose to install the Google add on this time as the nightly doesn't come with Google Apps. Or you could download them before flashing the nightly and flash them as a zip straight after cm nightly and before you boot up.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IIIPowerIII:
Thanks, I did that way and everything were fine. I flashed lightning then CM7 back and it got stuck. With quick boot it was fine.

Only one thing to add, manually download Gapp or you wont have a market to download anything. Even if you have the Market APK and install it, it wont work, you need your Gmail.

the music app as well as poweramp(it does show the folders) do not load the songs (.mp3) from my external sd card. any idea why ? Am using the latest nightly.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ADropBear:
The external SD location had been moved to /mnt/emmc. You might want to check your app settings and point them to the new folder.

Hey Dev Team, is there a switch to 24-bit color depth on the horizon? Or is closed source code making it impossible?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] banok:
I used to have cm7 installed on my I9000. I love the project, but I managed to get a very fine running phone with excellent battery life by tweaking deep sleep feature, screen brightness and processor voltage in a stock-based custom rom.

I think I'm going to wait for a more mature build before flashing cm7.

And it's really a pity the lack of all the stock video codecs...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aydc:
Isn't it a strange coincidence that soon after the news of Cyanogen being hired by Samsung was released, CM development almost stopped for all devices. When I look at the changelog for any device, not just SGS2, I don't see any development since 3-4 days. Is the development team on strike or is this purely a concidence, I wonder...

There is one issue in SGSII not solved yet and drives me crazy all the time. Low audio headphone output and poor sound quality in general. I remember that on my HD2 with typhoon CM7 it was really nice to listen to music on this phone even with bt streaming. So dear and beloved devs is there any chance you could focus on this matter ? There are several threads treating about this but without any good results. After spending some time here i can honestly say that this not only mine wish. Thanks in advance.

Is anyone's phone getting extremely hot and eating battery extremely fast? I was on build 28 running Launcher Pro and had my brightness at about 30%. All I was doing was browsing web and using XDA app. Thanks all
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ADropBear:
Nope, you can choose which launcher to use after installation and set either one as default.

You might want to use a system monitoring app like Watchdog or OS Monitor to check what apps or widgets are hogging the CPU in the background. Normal web surfing shouldn't produce much heat at all. In fact, I can get more screen time before the battery dies when compared to a stock ROM.

I kind of wish the developers waited until this was completely working, seems like a bit of a mess atm :(

Also was thinking why not ask old mate at samsung who recently scored that job to leak some drivers for the sgs2 so we can fix this up?

Finally codeworx I have noticed a change in your attitude recently (less of it), ur a good bloke in my books now.

Keep up the good work!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LuffyPSP:
actually yes i like how codeworx responded recently. thats how the CM devs in Desire section was like. Kali- if you know him. He responded really nicely. Well you cant expect a dev to respond to every PM and posts but its nice to see him do that when he did response.

:D just telling how i'm getting my dev-feeling on CM back. last time i got was on Desire. :p here, except pulser, i dont see any dev respond nicely to noobs. well not that they need to respond it, which i feel weird why they respond they could've just ignore the noobs though and let other members settle it.

btw, CM is pretty much working i think except you cant have everything that samsung rom have yet. enough for daily driver(call, sms, emails, markets)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A$h x:
Destroy them from within you mean...

But seriously, this may the best in the long term, as the next stock ROM to emerge from sammy may have loads of cool features ported from CM7. Or it could have more pointless bloatware which goes against the whole ethos of Cyanogen Mod. Who knows?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rjmcgauley:
Noobie here

Hi guys..

Pretty much a noob at this sort of stuff andimnot sure if im doing things right as any Rom i download from RomManager Pro won't install.

I'm using the stock kernel from Chainfire "XKE7" and have recently been able to install Litening Rom successfully.

Is there anything that im missing as i'd really love to use this ROM.

I've read through various forums on here and havent been able to come up with a conclusion of why its not installing.

I wipe all data and cache as instructed and still no ROM install.

I understand people get quite frustrated with silly questions on here but i'd appreciate some help and i apologize in advance if my certain case has been answered before.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xerovius:
Not only would that would get Cyanogen in trouble but in turn Samsung too with their hardware component suppliers because Samsung is legally obligated to keep the source closed if it was part of the original agreement.

install my clockworkmod kernel as mentioned in the instructions. rom manager doesn't play very well with CF.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rjmcgauley:

Now i use to use Tegrak Overclock and as its only supported with stock kernel its now pretty much useless in my app drawer.

Although im getting very good performance atm with the new update "28" and did a benchmark and got an average of 3700.

Some nice apps included as well and i'm loving the vast amount of customization.
