So what should i do? Is it possible it did root it but just couldn't move superuser.apk onto the phone? How would i know?

Ive tried running the superoneclick a few times and it always says in the left pane at one point "checking if rooted" "false"
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
ok ill try that app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
SWEET!!! That app instaled incredibly fast and then it said congratulations! You have root access!

So does that mean it doesnt matter that superoneclick said stuff about my device being full? Should i just continue the guide i was following? Or do i need to take an extra step?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Forget about the past :cool:. You have root access :D. Which guide were you following?

if i have root access shouldn't i be able to type su in a terminal app and get a # as a prompt. Or something like that? All i get is $ prompt no matter what.

Did you finish the remaining steps in the guide?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
lol, well no. The rest is just putting a custom version of the os on my phone though right? Ill continue. :o
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
You do that. Once CyanogenMod is installed, you will know for sure that your device is rooted.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
So im downloading rom manager now. But superuser was installed possibly before rooting. Not sure now. Just to be safe should i reinstall superuser app? Or does it not matter if it was installed before or after root was gained?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Doesn't really matter, so you don't need to re-install it (you can if you like).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
On step 7 i need to open rom manager and choose "flash clockworkmod recovery" and then its supposed to have me confirm phone model.

In the guide it says im supposed to choose "ION/MyTouch 3G" and it says the other option is "HTC magic".

But the two listed are htc magic or htc mytouch 3g

Pretty sure i should just choose htc mytouch 3g but want to make sure. Because in the guide it says my phone lists it as a 32a but in actuallity its a 32b like the magic. i think.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
From the guide:

What your looking for is whether you have 32A or 32B in the first line and what you've got in the radio line. Write this down for reference later on. (If you have a myTouch with the headphone jack on top, you need to read this first.)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Did you boot into fastboot to check?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
Well yeah, i have a 32a. but apparently that is deceiving. Here ill just copy that part of the guide here...

The myTouch 1.2/Fender is a rather unique device. If you boot into fastboot you will notice that the following information is displayed:

Code:

Sapphire PVT 32A Ship S-on G

Hboot-1.33.0013 (Sapp31000)

CPLD-13

RADIO-2.22.23.02

Oct 21 2009

Let's break that down a little bit.

You see in the first line 32A...but this is very misleading. The myTouch 1.2 is actually a 32B device, just with 32A memory and controller, but it IS a 32B device for pretty much all intents and purposes.

Secondly, you'll notice S-ON. This means that remote security from the bootloader is enable. What does that mean for the user??? Simple, you'll never be able to run a remote fastboot command.

Second line, 1.33.0013. This is your SPL and the ONLY SPL that will allow the phone to function properly. This, as well as the radio, will always need to be the stock versions or you'll either brick your phone or never get a ROM to work.

Also to note, this is considered a perfected SPL. What does "perfected" mean? Remember the "S-ON"?? That is what makes it perfected.

Lastly, the radio, 2.22.23.02. There is actually now a newer radio, 2.22.28.25 available, however, I personally have noted no real performance gain/loss. Again, along with the SPL, you will never want to change this unless you absolutely know what your doing or an expert tells you to.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
i went ahead and chose mytouch 3g.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Okay, did it work?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
Ok so i followed this step here and when i turned off the phone and then held home and power button it now gives me a triangle with an exclamation point and a phone. Thats all that is on the screen.

7. Once they both are installed, open ROM Manager. Click "OK" to both the prompts that come up. At the top, click the "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" button. A prompt will come up asking you to confirm your phone model. If you have a 32B phone or the myTouch 1.2 (headphone jack), select "ION/MyTouch 3G". If you have a 32A phone without a headphone jack, select HTC Magic. Once it has finished flashing, click OK. Scroll to the bottom of the ROM Manager menu and select "Flash Alternate Recovery". If you have a 32B/1.2 phone you should see "RA Recovery v1.7.0G". If you have a 32A without a headphone jack, you should see "RA Recovery v1.7.0H". Once verified to be correct, select that option and then click OK. Once completed click OK again. Power off your phone.

NOTE: I use these steps to get Amon Ra's Recovery installed since the steps in this guide will be using it and not Clockwork Mod. If, after getting more familiar with using recovery, you want to use ClockworkMod recovery instead, the steps are the same, just don't select the "Flash alternate recovery" option.

8. With the phone powered off, hold down (home+power) to get into your new custom recovery. Here you'll use the trackball to navigate the menu's, press the trackball to select, and the back button to go back.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Turn off your device and boot back into recovery.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
woah, ok, i pressed some buttons and now on top of the pic of a phone and exclamation in a triangle i have some options in blue text. Looks like i can choose them with the track ball as well as a combo of buttons.

reboot system now [home+back]

apply sdcard:update.zip [alt+s]

wipe data/factory reset [Alt+w]

wipe cache partition

at the very bottom in yellow text it says E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
should i still turn off and boot back into recovery?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
That's what I said.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
Ok i booted back into recovery by holding the home and power/end buttons and im getting the same thing. It sat at the screen with the triangle and exclamation with a phone next to it and nothing else for awhile.

I then pressed a bunch of random buttons and now i have those options i listed a couple posts ago and also in yellow font at the bottom it says

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command

and the exclamation triangle and phone are still in the background
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
It signifies missing recovery. Try to reflash ClockworkMod recovery.

---------- Post added at 09:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 PM ----------

It says it in the guide: "NOTE: If you don't get into the custom recovery (you get a picture with a phone and a triangle with exclamation mark) boot back up as normal and repeat step #7."
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
Ok, i reflashed clockworkmod recovery and then ra recovery like the guide says and then rebooted in recovery and im getting the same thing. I have realized the random keys i pressed before to make the options pop up are home and power. The same buttons i use to get into the recovery in the first place. Sorry if im noobing all over ya and thanks for all the help. Id be lost otherwise.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
Tried it again and the third time was not a charm. :(

Should i try using clockworkmod recovery only without flashing the alternate ra recovery???? The guide has me flash clockwork and then ra. but i could in theory use either one right?

EDIT:

So i have tried it several times now but i keep getting the same triangle with exclamation. Earlier you had me download the app root check basic and it said i have root. But i tried it a few more times and it seems to say i do have root sometimes and that i dont sometimes. Hmm.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Yes, just flash ClockworkMod recovery and then boot into recovery using the hardware keys (do not use Rom Manager to boot into recovery).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] injo503:
same result. :( what now?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Have you tried flashing a different version of ClockworkMod recovery?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frequency-Rebel:
First time poster, long time lurker.

After spending over 2 weeks reading thread after thread I'm more confused then when I first started !

Using CM7nightly#105, CWM installed as recovery (not sure if as a kernel as well or not ) I decided to use the fantastic SiyahKernal.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1263838

I Set the govner to ### and then within CM7 settings I set the CPU OC upto 1600MHz, UC downto 100MHz

Once I turned the phone off and back on again, I am no longer able to get into recovery mode. Turning on normal I get the "Samsung GalaxyS2" logo with the Warning Triangle showing that I have broken warenty, but it freezes and same goes for having the phone off and plugging it into a power source (USB or AC) it just freezes and nothing happens.

BUT I am able to get into download mode, so I'm taking that as a good sign that my phone isn't 100% bricked.

Odin isn't reconizing it, and nether is Windows7 AT ALL ! (most likly an unrelated issue)

I'm so stuck on idea's rite now, also afraid to send it in for repairs because obviously I have broken the warenty and don't know were that would leed, another problem being that it's also on a plan so I would rather not have to go and buy a new one unless I don't tell them about the finer details. The battery is dead because I thought it would charge in download mode, it didn't.. but it does let me enter download mode when connect to a USB or AC it just comes up with the mesage "Battery Empty can't download" or something similar.

If I have missed a thread with someone else having the same issue please redirect me there, if anyone has ANY hints at all or anything I could to get my phone back into working order I would greatly welcomed and I'm sure there might be a way I could repay you for the effort :)

Thanks in advanced ! Need anymore questions please ask.

I'm not a 'noob' I have an understanding of the basics and how most of it works regarding flashing like that the SGS2 doesn't need a .PIT file because it's already in EXT4 format so I'm pretty sure it isn't a problem regarding that, I'm thinking it's the bootloader, even the kernel I've used. But I was able to use Heimdall to flash a stock kernel ( yes it does work for the SGS2 ) but nothing had changed.

Sorry for the imporopper spelling.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Charge phone with power off.

Ensure samsung kies is not running whilst using odin. Also check your pc task manager and kill anything to do with Kies.

Ensure the latest drivers are installed, try different usb ports, another pc with drivers installed

If you can manage to get the phone recognised by adb (and you know how to use it) you can flash kernel (including the cwm recovery). I saw a method posted by Hellcat somewhere. It might get your recovery going.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19213907

You said your not a noob, but are you vol up + home + power to enter recovery?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frequency-Rebel:
Yeah I'm only able to get into download-mode, recovery just does not happen at all.

I'm going to try a different machine now after installing the drivers, there is a VM tut on here I'm going to follow that uses VirtualBox, Heimdall on Ubuntu says it detects my phone so I'm going to try that way.

Charging the phone with the powerd off just gives me the empty battery picture with the loading circle in the middle but of course it just freezes and doesn't do anything.

Now trying the ADB/Odin on a clean machine with the latest drivers.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayerfernandes:
1) Get the right CF Kernel from the Chainfire kernel thread in the Android Original Development Thread. Extract the zip to get a TAR and extract the TAR to get a z-image file. Also download the corresponding original stock kernel from the Intratech thread in the same section.

2) Flash the TAR in PDA using Odin. Do not click repartition. This lets you boot with with functional Root and CWM.

3) If you want to get rid of the yellow triangle, then load the z-image file into /sdcard. Reboot into download mode and use Odin to flash the stock kernel (again in the PDA without repartition). After that, go to the CWM app, choose flash kernel and locate the zimage and proceed.

FYI: SiyahKernels good, but with CM7 if you are updating between nightlys, reflash the old nightly first to get rid of siyahkernel, update the nightly and then reflash Siyah Kernel again. Long way but theres no workabout.

Also kill kies processes while using Odin

*****NOT A CWM FLASHABLE ZIP*******

I tried to make a rom based off ACS-ICS v2, because my GPS was working.

However something in the rom still is off. I had no GPS. My Nandroid backup however restored my GPS.

So here is my first attempt at a Rom/Nandroid:

Based of of ACS-ICS - marcusant

-Official 2.3.5

-No CiQ (k0nane)

-Rooted

-EXT4

-IAP's EI22 Kernel* Basic OC/UV to 1200* (earthbound[iap] )

-DeOdexed (xBTx)

-Juwe RAM Tweak (Juwe11)

-3G TurboCharger (zeppelinrox)

I added:

•SGS4G Adrenaline Shot (Dsexton702)

•ASOP Sytle Lock Screen (ICS Themed to match ACS ICS Rom)

•ACS ICS Launcher 4.0

•LogProvider Fix

•AppWidget Picker

My appoligies to anyone I forgot.

If this works to get the GPS going for some,

Hopefully we can use it to figure out why ACS ICS kills the GPS.

Thanks bodi524

[Epic 4G Android Development] iceman19631:
Correct me if i'm wrong but, I expect it's a Nandroid backup that may need to be extract into your CWM backup file and you just have to do a restore of it in CWM. I'd be sure to make a nandroid of your current rom before applying any other rom.

Working great for me no issues...thank you

Geez. You didn't have to change the title to delete. I kinda fell bad that everybody was bashing on you now. I am perfectly fine with you branching off and starting your own rom... I have nothing against it because you gave proper credit. I didn't mean to sound mean or anything like that... All work should be shared and different people like different things. Anyways, I also suggest that you learn how to extract a nandroid or create a rom without one.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ugothakd:
Making a cwm flashable is easy. There are many tutorials/how-tos out there. I could've made a number of "roms," but everytime I wanted to put something out I always realized that it wasn't development. I dont remember where I heard this but someone said that development isn't deleting apk's theming and calling it a rom.

[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
The first rom I posted was an early branch off of another popular rom. Despite clarifying my intentions, stating my immaturity, and giving all due credit, a mod deleted my thread without warning. Rather annoying, since the toughest part of doing all this was assembling a clear and informative thread.

I have since moved the majority of my information and all my download links to a separate site, courtesy of another less whiny forum.

While I cannot condone if someone were to rip off an entire rom and claim the work to be all their own, I also cannot condemn an effort by someone attempting to learn and share.

Android is, after all, open source.

Unfortunately, XDA is a tough crowd. You'll want to be a little more prepared before you launch a Rom thread if you're not ready for the backlash.

[Epic 4G Android Development] bodi524:
A lot of people were having GPS non functional with the ACS ICS v2 rom. I installed and had the GPS working. So my intentions were too upload something that would allow uses to use the rom and have a working GPS. I also updated the kernal, adreline shot and made the lock screen ASOP with the same theme.

With v3.5 of the rom out now and the GPS working not much need for this. It was an effort to support users who like myself liked the rom but had no GPS.
