Hey all

First off id like to say thanks for looking and helping

I recently updated my phone to the ICS (official) via the OTA update and i found i could NOT install 3rd party versions of software

So i rebooted into odin mode where i then installed the rom i origanaly had then it got stuck at the boot screen with the yellow triangle

So i rebooted into ODIN and re flashed to the origanal XWKF3 i origanaly used

Then i rebooted to the recovery mode then tried to install the rom (update.zip) and it errors saying E:failed to verify whole-file signiture. and E:Signiture verifacation failed, Installation FAILED

It wont no matter what i do play ball so here it is WHAT CAN I DO besides throw it against a wall verrrrrry f in g hard and hope it smashes into millions of lille bits .....

It is making me ill i tell ya

So if anyone can help it would be so appreciated and i would donate £20 to there happy funds they can buy a case or something nice with ........

EDIT:: now it wont respond to ODIN odin sees it but sticks at setting up connection then fails

Also when starting ODIN mode on the phone it says ODIN MODE , PRODUCT NAME SHG-I777 (this was one of the roms i tried) and wont change no matter what rom i try... custom binary says YES (9 counts) CURRENT BINARY: CUSTOM

cheers again

Can't you skip signature verification in CWM. also did you do a band backup before updating. Strange issue you have.

Hi thanks for replying

I mostly have to get to the recovery from S2 root software and i have to have an unsecure tar rom installed.....

I cant boot into CWM i can only boot into there boot recovery the only options in there are

ANDROID systerm recovery <3e>

Enter: ok key, select :vol up / vol down

reboot system now

apply update from sd card (this is where i get the signiture errors)

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

thats it

:(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carbonos1:
What version of the sgs2 do you have? You may have flashed a ROM for the wrong model.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nutzrutz:
I only wish i knew i thought it was the I9100 with XWKF3 tar but i am obviosly wrong and all the kernels in XDA links dont work so cant get the uk o2 ones

Is there anyway of finding out withought having to have a working phone ie through the serial etc..

It is an unlocked phone

I have it on o2 and it is british not imported

Cheers i wish i was clued up about this

The first time i rooted it when i got it it all worked well no problems and i then flashed back to the origanal rom and it worked well got all updates and was still rooted

After ICS i see i could not install some apps i had so i flashed a new insacure rom and thats where it all began

IS IT BRICKED SHOULD I SELL IT AS FAULTY
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carbonos1:
No, as your phone still turns on.

First boot back into the recovery you have now, and factory reset and wipe the cache.

Then to revert back to stock head over to the galaxy s2 forums, then into original Android development, then head into the official firmware page, and flash one of the firmwares listed there with Odin.

Hope that helps

Unfortunately no, but mirror 2 on xxlpq in fact does work, I'm downloading it now
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chiaotzu:
Hello there,

Here are the steps that might help you.

1. Download ODIN from attachment.

2. Download CM9 Resurrection Edition for use with Odin from below URL.

cm-9-20120330-ODIN-galaxys2.tar.md5

3. Power off your phone.

4. Press Volume Down + Home Button + Power Button simultaneously to enter into download mode.

5. When you're in Download Mode, start the ODIN you've downloaded from attachment and connect your phone to Computer.

6. Let ODIN detect your device and select the downlaoded tar.md5 file in PDA section and click on Start button.

7. If everything is fine, ODIN will install the CM9 ROM in your phone.

8. After the process is complete, disconnect the phone and wait for it to boot.

9. After successful booting up, you may stick with that build or install the latest version of CM9 from below link.

update-cm-9-20120331-CODEWORKX-galaxys2-signed.zip

10. Just put above mediafire file in your SD Card.

11. Boot your phone in Recovery mode from your OS, Wipa data, cache, dalvik-cacke, battery stats

12. Format /system

13. Install zip file from SD card and select the downloaded file from mediafire, install it and reboot after successful installation.

14. You may optionally install GAPPS from recovery by downloading it here.

Let me know how it goes. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nutzrutz:
Thanks so much for them i got them BUT now ODIN says ADDED and when i load kenel into PDA then click start it just hangs and does not flash

IT DID PREVOIUS BUT NOW IT WONT FLASH :mad: do i add the pit file that was iincluded in the odin download i got from you as i am going to try that next
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chiaotzu:
No, don't add that PIT file. Just post the log messages from ODIN.

EDIT:

Also try following things:

1. Make sure you're in download mode and your screen shows "Downloading..." text.

2. Take out your battery for 5 minutes and put it back.

3. See if the phone charges in power off mode. If yes, make sure it's charged enough, at least 30%.

4. Can you go into Recovery mode? Try pressing Volume Up + Home Button + Power Button simultaneously to enter into recovery mode. If you're able to get into recovery mode, you can flash the update-cm-9-20120331-CODEWORKX-galaxys2-signed.zip file from there. See if that works for you.

5. Possible post a screenshot of ODIN where it's stuck.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nutzrutz:
Ok phone is off battery is out for a min or 10 then i will put it back in n try odin then if still not playing fair i will do it the other way.

I take it you ment put that file on my micro sd card yes then install

One more thing b4 i go

Is there a reason its not connecting to Keis now

Is it the rom etc stopping it or is it something else do you recon ?

Shows up ok in my computer but when i start keis it just continusly try to connect

If not can i transfer my contacts .spb file on the sd card and update there somehow
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chiaotzu:
Right now, you've installed CyanogenMod ROM of Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0 version of Android. It doesn't have Kies in it as it's a version from google, more clean and bloatware free. If you want, you can go back to Samsung Version to use Samsung Kies. All you need to do is to download and follow the instructions from following thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1544487

Alternatively, here are instructions to import it into without Kies.

PS: I suggest you to save all your contacts to Google that way you don't have to backup them everytime you format your device. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nutzrutz:
Will do it the 2nd way as i am happy with the software on it now

I thought i had synced them with google but am not sure how to get them back

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chiaotzu:
You can go to http://contacts.google.com/ to see all your contacts. Add, delete, modify in there. Whatever modifications you do in there will appear in your Contacts/People app in Android. Make sure to add new contacts in your gmail account from your phone. ;)

Hello I made the root of my first transformer with vipermode 4.5 and now I want to upgrade to the latest firmware or do I have to follow any special procedure?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] linvoke:
download Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper from the app market. open it, save your root, update, then reopen and restore root. worked for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] spygia:
But first I need to update the first temp. un-root through rootkeeper?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dave_S:
There is no need for a temp unroot before doing an update.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] spygia:
But I read in this forum that by the last update of the firmware you lose your root if you use voodoo ota rootkeeper
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SteveG12543:
I had no problems restoring root from OTA root keeper. I never unrooted or anything. Just backed up root, updated, restored root.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bimbobo:
This is correct, I lost root even though I used Root Keeper

After 21WW fw I cannot even root it anylonger, unless ViperMod's guy find a solution.

BTW post in developers forum.. you get more info there.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dave_S:
Apparently some people can not walk and chew gum at the same time either. :D There is nothing in the update that will cause you to permanently loose root if you properly back up your root with Voodoo OTA RootKeeper. If you are really unsure that your root is properly backed up you could try a "temp. un-root" and then verify that you can restore root from the "temp. un-root" before you do the OTA update.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I was able to restore root with no issue. plus I didn't temp. unroot either. Voodoo the best app ever..lol. it always comes through for me ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] malaccio:
hi! i've restored root by voodoo app.

now, if i want to do an hard reset i will lose root permission?

thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
more than likely. why do you want to hard reset for? if you want a good start on new update just do a soft reset. stick paperclip in the hole underneath memory card slot while prime on. then you'll see it reset.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] malaccio:
oh thanks, i didn't know this method..

no application will be deleted?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
You DONT lose root with factory reset (setting>backup/restore>factory reset) or hard reset (power + volume durring boot). I did both after updating OTA and restored root with root keeper. I hard reset so I can start from scratch as I was having some issues with browser temporary locking up and a few other things.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sedlacko:
Hello. Today i managed to install small update from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1563249

I sucessfully flashed it through cwm, and I also booted. But then i accidentaly pressed OTA asus update and im now stuck in Cwm Recovery v3.1.0.1 (solarnz-R-230511-1902). I cant access my nandroid backup since this recovery doesnt support internal storage and i when i press reboot system i get recovery loops (tablet restarts but android wont boot, im again in cwm). So i managed to flash some other versions of cwm, i flashed them, but again, after reboot im still in this recovery ... then i tried this guide http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...overy-bootloop-fix-tested-my-c10-windows.html but i havent set an adb to my device before so when im in command prompt it doesnt recognize my tablet so its pretty awkward (maybe because i havent usb debugging on - is there any way to turn it on??). So im an epic noob, can someone give me advice how to unbrick my lovely tablet? I´ll be very very greatful :) please help...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
If you have an sbk v1 version you could use nvflash to unbrick. Check your serial #

Am exactly in the same situation, have to cold boot to use the tablet.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolftroy1:
Check this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=23339963 . You'll need to connect to a PC and us adb to connect (Google it if you are not sure what it is or how to use it).

Then reboot since you'll be right back in CWM, run the advanced script. I would replace that version as soon as possible with the working version of CWM.

I am having the same issue in an app I am building for the Acer a510.

Or should I say, WAS having.

Bad Code

adb pull /system/app/ /Backups/system/app

Good Code

adb pull /system/app/ ./Backups/system/app

The difference for me was the " . " for the destination.

It was creating the files on my root C:\ drive instead of the

intended directory. I pulled the entire contents where I want now.

I am not sure if this will help you at all, but I thought I would share.

***EDIT***

It worked until I got to /data/app

There is where I got the same error.

"0 files pulled. 0 files skipped"

:(

After changing permissions on the folder,

everything pulled.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] neilbantoc:
Hello there!

I've chosen to work on building a user interface for file managing on android tablets for my special problem, one of my subjects this semester. So in order to graduate, I need the help of some willing testers to test out my app.

Here's a demonstration of the features it has:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNcyT5iwLyU

Some things to take note of:

There's no up folder button, so you can't go past /mnt/sdcard when going up the directory hierarchy

if /mnt/sdcard is not your internal sdcard's default mount path, then it'll crash

When you swipe horizontally too fast to switch tabs, it does some funky stuff making one pane invisible. touch the other pane again to make it appear again.

You CAN'T cancel a copy or past operation when it has started.

Don't do stuff like copying or moving a file to the same folder it currently is in. if you move a file or folder to the same folder, it will get deleted.

Just perform normal file operations. Avoid trivial cases as mentioned above.

I'll admit, it's not the best file manager. Features are scarce, the code is not that optimized both in running time and in memory allocation, and there are a lot of checking that needs to be done (like when your sdcard is currently mounted in usb mass storage mode). But my focus is the user interface and not the back end, so please excuse these things.

So here's the link for the app: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16398746/Files.apk

And here's the link for the evaluation form: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dEVQeElJb3QyR05kLUN0akliV0ExbEE6MQ#gid=0

Thank you very much! I'm open to comments here in XDA so just comment ahead and please be gentle with me, it's my first app.
