[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberboob:
This is a more detailed edited version of how to install the

Resurrection ROM by westcrip

...

as have seen too many users that seem to be skipping parts or confused of the installation.

This is also for users like myself, who just started on this site and can't post on Development side to find their answers.

BACKUP your apps of course...but DO NOT backup system data.Repeat!! DO NOT BACKUP SYSTEM DATA. Restoring system data can give you some problems because if you don't know what you're doing, can accidentally replace something from the fixes that screws things up!

PART-1

Rom Installation (you MUST follow these steps! )

**Go to recovery mode( Vol UP + Power+ Home and hold until the Samsung Galaxy screen comes on)

1- Wipe data / Factory reset then (can Wipe cache partition or go straight to)

Install ResurrectionV1.1_official_remix_ics_4.0.3_XXLPE_FULL-WiPE.zip

*if you did not Wipe cache, can go straight to install from cache...

but if you Wiped cache then you go to install from external SD card and install 1.0_CWM.zip (this will be touch version)...

then choose - install zip from sdcard. - choose zip from sdcard. Scroll down to Download folder and select ResurrectionV1.1_official_remix_ics_4.0.3_XXLPE_FULL-WiPE.zip.

Please wait a moment.

2-Install gapps_for_remix_v1.1.zip

3-Install gapps_fixer.zip then go back and go to Advanced.

4-Wipe dalvik cache (required)

and Fix permissions and go back to

5-Reboot system

(at this stage it may take a while for first bootup, because we have wiped cache. It needs to rebuild it, so don`t panic.

It may take a while *average around 3-5min before getting to Installing applications screen)

At this stage, boot to system and configure the phone (change language settings, etc).

When finished, again reboot into recovery and follow PART-2

PART-2 (required)

This part it's mandatory here are contained the language, theme, AOSP apps and the T9 dialer if you want it...

or use default. ONLY install one of these:

*note: you're in regular CWM using up and down volue + power button to enter.

If you want the touch - reinstall it like before.

1.- Install the SMSfixupdate-afterboot+T9 Dialler.zip

or

SMSfixupdate-afterboot+default remix dialler.zip

go back

2.- Reboot into system

After finishing the boot it's highly probably that you receive a force close from android phone.

It's normal and it's the only FC that you should get.

Enjoy!

**There is a RAM Manager Fix (When you open the Task Manager app, there's a section called RAM and a button to Clear Memory.

The fix enables that button again... for those not working).

Here is a mirror link for this and other files:

RAM Manager Fix and others

PART-3 (optional)

*This can apply to many other files you want to flash.

If you want to install Siyah kernel:

Place Siyah-v3.0rc4-CWM.zip (or whichever version you're using) in the root of internal SDcard memory ("download" folder) and go to recovery mode (Vol Up + Power + Home).

Go to Install zip from SDCard... and select it.

Yes and install... Fix permissions... Reboot.

**battery issues with Siyah?

go to recovery

wipe dalvik

go to "kernel specific options" to reset them or other performance tweaks.

reset kernal

fix permission

reboot

**No more video player?

Get the VideoPlayer.apk file (*have to do a search for it now until I find another working link to it)

and copy it to system/app using something like Root Explorer

Reboot

Hope this helps. I'll edit this when I have time (usually busy with other projects).

*Version 1.2 is out now Check it here.
