A lot of us ressurection rom guys are just waiting around for the new rom, and prolly havn't reflashed since version 1.4 around the 16th.

I feels pretty safe since I have a kernel from 04/19 22:05 (CRC C8C4O7C) The one you made after the slow movement response one.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jaxadv:
Ludus, let me know via a PM tomorrow if the warranty will fix it or not please.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Cristiano Matos:
i speak with all my words: You don't have to apologize for anything!

Maybe some people will ask me if i got my phone bricked... I don't.

But let see the big picture: All time spent, all good will with answers and feedback and most important, all the awesome work with the best kernel ever!

All we should be responsible about what we do, and modified our device is the botton line here.

Keep going with your outstanding jog, totally aultruist, for us.

Many, many thanks.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jaxadv:
Yes, that should be alright.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] aeroman:
very useful posting, :p where the informations about your Rom & config? :)

here the last stable built SiyahKernel RC6 from 19.04! (i attached it, folow the link)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25178272&postcount=5219

Its a flashable Zip.File!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Nos_20:
Oh no I hope everyone gets there phones sorted. I never re downloaded the rc 6 kernel but I am still on an older kernel Thu April 19th version. I still have it on my SD card if anyone wants it. Don't know if it will help anyone?????

Tapa Tapa Tapatalked....!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KroonBerg:
I just flashed rc5 (from the "damaged" rc6) without any wipes what so ever. Worked just fine for me.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] wellibob:
I can confirm that original rc6 released on or just after the 17 th is ok. I had no issues wiping and installing hydrogen Rom Friday just gone from a Sammy based ics. Modified rc6 this weekend can be a cause for concern???
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] XDA mark:
I have the Siyah RC6 from Friday 20th April, 13:35:14 EEST 2012.

So according to you, this one is bad as well? I believe it's only the one from Saturday/Sunday...

Anyway, I'm all good atm, so I'm just not flashing anything until things settle. Should be ok I guess.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] danielsf:
This might be overkill but I was on the latest rc6, and I was just about to factory reset to flash a new rom and just before I did it I just decided to pop on here to see how things were going (I am so glad I took a look here) and I have just seen whats been happening. I didn't want to take any chances as I have very little money to replace my s2, so I went straight into download mode and flashed an old stock gb rom (odin) I had lying about on my computer, and the re-rooted with an old speedmod gb kernel (using odin) I had also lying about and installed cm9 with it's stock kernel. No bricks or anything. I know this was properly overkill, as it's my device therefore my responsibly to keep is safe and I didn't want to take any chances. (over kill is better than being under papered) I thought I would just share in the hope it will help someone :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] beston94:
Oh right....Sorry about that question..

PS: Reported :D

Have a nice day :]
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dee163:
I agree also.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Rawi666:
I use this kernel and it's ok for me. I think the version later than 20th April is suspected.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] themadba:
Ok, so I have the 3.0.15-Siyah-v3.1rc6+gm@gm-mint #32 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 18 10:25:43 EEST 2012 kernel flashed.

Is the good version or the bad version?

Thanks,

Chris.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Karpfenhai:
Got an idea, as some of you probably know, there are two different kinds of wifi chips possible, one from murata, one made by Samsung itself, gok embedded Korean drivers for wifi, I'm just saying, maybe there is a coherence?

This would also explain (perhaps) why not all are affected?

When are the affected phones produced? Early builds only maybe?

Our is just Samsungs way to punish customizers :-)

Good luck to all affected people, you got my deepest sympathy!

Swyped from my GT-I9100 using XDA App.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] aeroman:
I don't know mate whats with built from 20th, :) i test since days the built from 19th (22.05h)

That runs/works by me so good, that i dont need update to 20th or 22th. :D

I'll wait futhermore to the final Release. ;)

Cheers
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KroonBerg:
Report me all you like. There were several people claiming to have gotten their phones bricked and you ask a question like that. That's just disrespecting towards the poor folks affected by this. Why would they make up something like that?

Sure, maybe it was a bit stupid to add the retarded part, but seeing as you wrote this;

in a development thread, something that's both irrelevant and racist, I don't think you should be so quick to blow your own horn.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] vektek:
Just a question... The guys who have bricked phones..... did you try rolling back to gingerbread before it crashed?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sorg:
The only noticeable difference between korean and international SGSII is amount of partitions. Korean version has no preload (aka hidden) partition which is present on international version. this is mmcblk0p12, AFAIR (actually, i've repartitioned my international SGSII the same way to get more 500mb of free space for /data).

If CWM recovery modified by Gokhan do somehing with this partition then its absence can produce some side effect.

actually, that dual-boot feature is somewhat tricky and put ROM (especially second one) into not-supposed-to state. This can give you different side-effects not only for users who use dual-boot feature, but also for those who use just single ROM. IMHO it's very specific feature needed just for small group of people and whould be good to have separate version of kernel for those who really need it.

I like functionality of Siyah Kernel, but i cleaned initramfs from all files relative to dual-booting (also from CM/AOSP/etc versions, including that tricky USB initialization) to make clean and simple version.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fasst:
I'm running on a download from 20.4 around 16:07 and have factory reset several times without any problems.

gokhan,

As a few has mentioned earlier, ver.-nbrs. on reuploads would be helpful and less confusing.

Edit. Running Hydrog3n as first and Omega 11 as second.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pmcee:
after i wasnt able to wipe data i tried a nandroid backup of my latest cm9 backup from yesterday.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ICDeadPpl:
+1 on the version numbers on every new revision.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] TheRplima:
I'm running HyDrOG3N-ICS 18.04 + Latest RC6 (#76) and all seems to be good.

I flashed the kernel today, but I didn't wipe anything.

Should I continue with this kernel version or should I flash another version or do nothing and wait?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yooyo3d:
I tried several 3.1rcX versions and I have various issues. Im using NEAT ROM based on LP8.

3.1rc6 build #72 have a problem with wifi after deepsleep. It doesnt reconnect. Then I flashed new version, 3.1rc6 build #76 and camera didnt work. Finally I flashed 3.0.1+ (3.0.27-Siyah-v3.0.1+) and phone works properly so far.

Im using CWM flashable kernels.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ogy77:
Can anybody give me answer and write can I now flash latest nigthly and do factory reset or this danger to damaged my phone?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dkbrz:
So is there any way to unbrick phone?

I was using 3.1rc6
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Rawi666:
Gokhan used the word "korean" yesterday for the first time -> check here

So kernel from 20th April is fine
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] danielsf:
I know this means nothing and it is a worthless post, but I have to say it, to all the people with bricked phones you really do have all my sympathy and I really hope you can get your s2 fixed :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
Yes flash a nightly or any ROM that does not wipe anything, I was on latest Siyah which is having issue and I flashed the latest nightly over it without a problem, wish for the best
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I blame yesterday night's upload and anything before that one should be safe or I hope so.

I did not make any modification in CWM recovery for about a week and my changes are not in wiping or formatting part (only one exception and it is label change only to format internal/external)

I am uploading 3.1 which is based on update4 sources.

if you dare...

or just install any other kernel.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] themadba:
Anybody? I don't want a bricked phone, thank you very much.

Cheers,

Chris.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
I am no dev, but I thinks the problem has to do with formatting, all bricks reported thus far has been a result of some type of wipe but it is not consistent so it is hard to troubleshoot issue.

Where does the recovery get instructions on what to format when the command is called by a user, if there is some conflict there and when a user instructs recovery to wipe cache or dalvik or system partition, if recovery is given wrong partition information to format, then we could be closer to finding the cause

Just a guess here, I am totally lost, but I am very curious
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Vaedryn:
I will stay on Siyah to the end. And I think no one makes you a reproach. Flash on your one risk, a fact
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ogy77:
Can you answer me,I flash yesterday this version your kernel Sat Apr 21 09.21.03 EEST 2012,this bad or good version?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Cristiano Matos:
I will download and Install for sure!

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Pigmachine:
Is it with the changed filesystem mounting, or is it as it is use to be?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ithehappy:
Better to have the half features of Siyah than a bricked phone. So I'll definitely flash.

Just don't rush up, that's all ;)

Swyping from my GT-I9100 via Tt 2
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
GK, is it possible to write a safety command into recovery where when the user asks to format a partition, a check is done and if the partition information received matches the address of bootloader partition, then the wipe is aborted with some sort of error???
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dkbrz:
I have tried:

* Swap batteries

* Use JIG

* Use ODIN

* Multiple key combinations

* Pray

Phone is still bricked. But I have noticed one strange thing - when phone is with battery pulled in - it's getting hot in the place near the SIM card..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
it will use new mounting method so it should work fine on latest cm9 nightly.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ludus7:
in italy we have "physical" samsung service in city and town. i will go tomorrow to one of them and keep you informed about.

no
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] themadba:
GK, is the Wed 18th Apr release OK?

Chris.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I am not sure about the date but if you flash the kernel using odin or CWM application you should be safe.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] eric-filth:
Safe version man. Dont worry.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ogy77:
Yes I use CWM app to flash rc6,can you give advice what now we to do,flash older version rc5 or flash new nigthly over rc6 with full wipe and factory reset?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ludus7:
yeah, i have checked it too !
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] themadba:
The last thing I need is a bricked phone.

Thanks man :)

SiyahKernel v3.1 its online now!!!..Lets see if everything its ok!...Thanks for all the hard work.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
3.1 is up.

the only change on old update4 based rc6 (not korean) is some wifi patches from myfluxi's repo and touch sensitivity.

I will keep korean based sources in my github and maybe someone can find out the problem with them. just don't use them because the only change was the base.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sam142000:
I'm on stock Sammy ROM LP7, and am not planning to flash any custom ROM. So, is the 3.1 kernel safe for me?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yahyoh:
is it the CPU heating????:confused::confused:

so there is still soul in the device i think
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] xan:
Flashed 3.1 via CWM - booted :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bala_gamer:
People who don't have the guts to flash 3.1 better keep your mouth shut, instead of crying and asking, is this safe? Will it brick my phone?. I know you people are playing safe, but if you want to stay safe don't flash any custom kernels. I may sound rude but the point is asking such silly questions will piss off many people including the developer who works tirelessly for the sake of community.So better wait for a feedback before flashing are stay safe with any other kernels.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Orka82:
3.1 flashed (CWM). No brick. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] snakefreak:
gokhanmoral sometimes these things happen. I know this since my HTC Blue Angel. the last 6 years i bricked 5 phones.

But you should not give up the development. You make a good job overall

May I know the reason for switching between update4 source and kernel 3.0.28.

#*posted on the move *#
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bazzag:
I have CM9 0413 (Before the mount points switching), should I flash 0422 first, or is 3.1 backwards compatible?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chudm:
guys im using rc6, with cm9 and im getting better battery life... but still isnt so good, which rom can you recommend for a better battery life + siyah 3.1?

What is that about may I ask? :D

Chris.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] aeroman:
Flashed V3.1 under D4 Rom!

No Brick, No Problems here. ;) Good Work GM, keep it. :cool:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] snakefreak:
Any time develop a own kernel or rom?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bala_gamer:
Reassemble the words, "thenextgalaxy";)

#*posted on the move *#
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
v3.1 is based on update4 sources which is patched to linux 3.0.28 (latest stable 3.0.y) just like cm9 and most of other kernels.

they are not much different except for some fixes from upstream.

so it is not switching but only patching some files and those patches do not include any exynos platform dependent patches.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jack_p75:
flash 3.1 hydrogen rom no brick thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Orka82:
Siyah 3.1 & latest CM9: I get the message about "The SD card is not mounted" again when trying to access /sdcard. I have selected "Use internal storage" in Storage configuration.

Works with the stock CM9 kernel.

It has been some more changes regarding mount points in CM9. :)

(http://teamhacksung.org/wiki/index....Asked_Questions#I_can.27t_find_my_SD-Cards.21)

Reverted back to "stock" until this is fixed.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] vektek:
Thats that then
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] beston94:
I'll bet everyone is waiting for someone to flash it XD
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KroonBerg:
Racism is not an appropriate topic to base your jokes around, one day you might just piss off the wrong kind of people.

In other news, the 3.1 stable version is working just fine over here. Good work, GK!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] beston94:
Yes but my comment wasn't really racist, was it? I just said it sounded like it was a ""broken-russian-english-accent". And just for the record, the user that I posted that comment to had no objection towards it at all. He just replied with "I'm german".

It seems to me that you are trying so hard to find something on me..I'm done with this....There are enough useless posts in this thread (including mine :/)

Have a good day :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
oh no...

then we will have another fix for cm9 tomorrow if they haven't changed a lot of basics..

I am just too tired for now. my eyes hurt and it is not easy to work on sources with this bad feeling..

again, I am very sorry for those who cannot use their phones now.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] beston94:
Take a break. You deserve it !!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] wellibob:

same here i dont have this problem on rc6

edit: i remember i think i need rom that support this changing between emmc and external sd ??:rolleyes::rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Vaedryn:
No problem here , Latest Nightly Siyah 3.1 , Intern / Extern Card works fine

Don't let this get in the way of your sleep, your work is much appreciated! Thanks & good night. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ruka82:
I just realize that the brick that happen to me this day is kernel related....

Last night i make a backup of my rom,this morning try some other rom (wanamlite + SiyahKernel v3.1rc6),no particular problem.

At that point i decided to restore my backup,no error during the process,at the reboot the phone is dead,no recovery,no download,no charging animation....
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] toxo99:
How can I identify this old update4 based rc6 version?

It´s possible that this version was v3.1 rc6+gm@gm-mint #69?

Thanks for your hard job
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yahyoh:
go take some sleep ;):cool:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mutalisk:
Formatted or cleared anything in CWM?

Because until now, everybody that bricked, reported so.

If not it gets even more mysterious...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ruka82:
Simply restore the backup,i think that the restore process format automatically something...

Bricked my SGS2

Guys I need help. Today I wanted to use the dual-boot as secondary rom Original Samsung Firmware and MiuiScotland 2.4.21 version as primary rom.

The thing is that I manageded to install both, but I forgot to wipe before I instal the Miui rom. So it got stuck on the bootloader. Then again I wanted to wipe, but this time the wipe got stuck. I wanted to restart the phone to try again and it went dead.

The phone does not start or do anything else. I tried to use my JIG from the past that I used with SGS1 but it does not respond.

Do I need another JIG? I still have the factory warranty but I am afraid that they will see the custom kernel and rom.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] congo1971:
Also for me no problem with internal and external sd card with latest 3.0.28-Siyah-v3.1 kernel on stock rom and D4 rom!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Orka82:
Do you use a card at all? I don't and I was talking about CM9. ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] congo1971:
Sure I use a card, otherwise I wouldn't mention it ;)

yes, I now see you were tolking about CM9....

But it won't hurt to let Gökhan now that it's working with other roms i think?

(D4 is also based on the latest CM9)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Orka82:
Probably not. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] andrei_me:
so the 3.1 should be safe to flash with latest hydrogen rom?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] LockeOn:
Gokhanmoral you are amazing, thanks to you now I can use USB mouse, keyboard and even an USB gamepad on CM9:) Great work:)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tolis626:
Yes,D4 is based on CM9 nightlies,so it's exactly the same system,albeit with some changes the developer made. :)

My phone sees my sdcard normally,but I have a problem with apps on external storage again.The same thing I described some pages back continues to happen.The apps that are installed on external storage disappear on reboot,but the files are there in the android_secure folder.I can restore with Titanium,but still the same will happen.Pardon me but...****..! :(

EDIT:Forgot to mention that the secondary rom works fine in that aspect.Apps installed in external storage are in external storage,they don't disappear.Reading through some posts that a search in the CM9 thread came up with,I think that what's happening is that apps that get installed to external storage look for the sdcard,so emmc doesn't actually point to the right direction or something?I'm tired,sleepy,kinda sick and feverish,so my capability of perception is completely diminished.Gokhan,I have faith in you,so PLEASE FIX IT! :p Joking,but I'd appreciate a fix all too much... :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] snap3r:
I just flashed 3.1 and when i access the gallery says i have no storage.And when i check with total commander i get 2 SD-Cards storage and my stuff are in SD Card 2 and the external is the first one.

Tried fixing permissions and flashing the kernel twice but it didn't work.Also i tried mounting the sdcard from CWM
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] naveediftikhar:
wooohhh..!! was on the latest rc6..came home read all the fuss about the bricked phone and was scared ****less...so immediately flashed the new 3.1 using mobile odin not the recovery!...n got a soft brick...m phone hung on the galaxy s2 screen...my heart was beating like anythin coz it took me alot of money to buy this phn..they dont come cheap in my country...so downloaded the tar version and flashed via odin...and all went good...so yeah rc6 was buged like anything and i dun think so that it was only hydrogen rom as i myself use wanamlite..and got a soft brick wonder what had happened if i had factory reseted..:S...so one question...is 3.1 safe now?...!!or else its me whos gonna end up bricked with a heart attack if i keep getting something like this every now and then:P
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cybrid3:
If you have one of the dangerous rc6 files flashed, is it now safe to install 3.1? I sent the link to a mate at 5pm today so assume it was the version taken down. His phone is working fine. Can he safely install 3.1 from recovery and everything will be fine?
