[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NEzverins:
So here I am again, after a while.

Have changed like hundred of ROMs about year ago on Galaxy S III and Galaxy S II, it was still time when newest android version was 4.1.2 i think.

So now i have a problem, big one. I bought Galaxy S II again, and wanted to flash new rom, because version that i had was 4.1.2.

It was horrible, i effd up my phone big time and flashed stock rom trough Odin, now its 4.0.3. It's old like my granny, but it's very fast. I'm spending like only 38% of my RAM.

But still i wanted to change ROM, and put on the new 4.4.2, but only that kind which don't takes more than 50% of ram.

Adding Screenie, so you can check out what kernel am I using.

using as stock rom - I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXALPQ_I9100XXLPQ_HOME.tar.md5 (file name)

and as root - CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-v5.3-CWM5 (file name)

I Have tried to flash any of the ROMs trough CMW recovery with the kernel i have now, but still i got Failed to install update. Some kind of e:emmc (Status 7 error), i tried to fix it, fixed. But now I had Status 6 error. It seems that i can't open the update (ROM).

So i'm asking for help. Maybe some1, could give me the right ROM, right KERNEL and RECOVERY. and step-by-step guide to avoid those errors and fails.

I'm sorry if i'm posting new thread, but i can't really find and answer to my question and problem. I would be greatful if someone could just help me and guide trough this problem, if not here, then maybe in PM.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Christiaan91:
You don't need a step to step guide. Just flash a kitkat compatible CWM (search for it), before flashing a kitkat rom. Everything else goes the same.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vivek_Neel:
Hi

As long as your phone is rooted and have custom cwm

You can flash this kernel

Then dont reboot the system

Reboot to recovery

Full wipe

Flash kk rom zip

Flash gapps
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NEzverins:
Thankyou very much both of you. Seems to me i just had old CMW. I installed new one, and sucessfully flashed rom and gapps.

The problem now is that file transfering, deleting and folder opening when connected USB is really slow or folders won't even open. So i really can't transfer any files from my PC.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Christiaan91:
Make sure the screen is on and the phone is unlocked and try a different usb transferring modus.

cwm 6.0.4.5 can't open kitkat rom

Hi,

classic intro i guess, i'm new to the forum, was going to open a new thread, when in fact this one seems perfect. Still, if i shouldn't be doing it, i apologies in advance, please let me know....

Now,

as i said the original topic replicates almost exactly the issue i'm facing.

i have Galaxy S2 i9001, i had rooted it, then tried to flash a rom, failed that, found a guide which got me to have rooted stock (i assume it is a stock rom) version 4.0.3, similar kernel version listed in the original post (i hope is ok to list below the file names? this is the file i used to get there: I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXALPQ_I9100XXLPQ_HOME.tar.md5)

I flashed CWM version 6.0.4.5, which, reading from this thread, should be compatible with KK roms.

i didn't manage to install the newer version listed in that thread as inside the zip there is no .tar file for odin to read, so not sure how i would do that. same for the other "philz" file listed. i'm a noob after all....

So, with CWM 6.0.4.5 on, i downloaded into external SD card a few different ROMs

pa_i9100-4.3-BETA6-20140523.zip

aokp_i9100_kitkat_unofficial_2014-04-14.zip

Resurrection_Remix_KK_v5.1.1-20140507-i9100.zip
​

rebooter into recovery, followed the wipes listed in the ROMs threads then tried to "install zip" and for each file i get the same messages:

Installing: /PATH

Finding update package

Opening update package

Can't open /PATH​

i hope someone could help me understand what it is that i'm doing wrong?

any help would be really appreciated, please!!:fingers-crossed:

Got a trouble with the power button recently. To make it work I have to take the back cover off and then it push it. Does anyone know if it is possible to fix?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nestul:
I have it broken now too. It can be replaced by desoldering and soldering a new one. They are cheap on eBay. If you can't fix it yourself take it to a phone/computer shop.

My phone autostarts when connecting the USB port because i am using devil kernel, and i have slim bean ROM, with hardware keys enabled and the function to turn off the screen assigned to long press menu button. I can also turn off the phone using this ROM via another touch controls in the drawer (long press over turn off touch button). So i don't have to take the back cover off.

P.S: i supposed that you were talking about the screwed internal back cover. If not, and the problem is with your plastic material then another solution should be possible.

Hey guys,

I just received this nice phone from work and looking for a nice case to fit.

After moving to this phone from LG nexus 4 I had 3 cases there:

1) S line TPU gel basic.

2) rubbery soft touch and preety bulk.

3) bumper case.

I really liked the bumper case but don't want this on the s3.

Can you recommend a nice durable good feel and button pressing

and most of all beautiful in the budget of 15$?

Thanks alot folks :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] aybarrap1:
It all depends on how much protection you want. Amazon offers a wide variety of choices for cheaper than what you can get at the manufacturer websites or store kiosks (unless the is a good sale). I don't recommend the otterbox commuter due to the fact that it makes pressing the power button more difficult.

I recommend the Ballistic SG or SG Max case. They are $16-20 on Amazon but if you shop Ebay they have some for around $10 or less. Best case you will get for your money.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] nostradmus:
I've tried about a dozen cheap cases between my S3 and Galaxy Express and I finally ended up with a fake Neo Hybrid case that I bought on ebay. Cost me under $10AU and after a few months use is still going strong.

No misspelled writing or sagging. It sits snug and aligns perfectly. I only had to increase button sensitivity for the volume buttons by adding a layer of tape on top of the buttons.

There are a couple of reviews floating around this forum somewhere if you need more info.

2.5 mm to 3.5 mm stereo adapter

I have bought a number of these on eBay - inexpensive but quality is fine. I prefer type that has a short connector cord, rather than the fat dongle that sticks way out.

Just do an eBay search for "2.5 mm to 3.5 mm stereo adapter" to find current listings.

It definitely does provide stereo.

I think the issue with the 3 rings vs. 2 rings has more to do with microphone function.

I also have a wonderful set of speakers with microphone - the Shure e2c-t - really incredible stereo sound - they are in-the-ear type with dual speakers in each ear - very nice quality unit with thick sturdy cable.

If you do a search on the optimus 3d forum for "downgrade to gingerbread" you will find help to downgrade. A gingerbread (2.3.5) rom can not be used if you do not downgrade from ICS. None of the rom manager type of apps that are available from the play store work with this phone.Only use the methods to install roms using the recommended methods in the optimus 3D forums

If you upgraded to ICS using LG official update tools, many users have had problems after upgrading. Try the method described in my original post and if you are not happy with the results maybe then try a downgrade.

Its amazing phone. After using for about a month, Note 2 seems bulky and FAT

Note 3 looks stylish

Now about Kitkat update. I got it yesterday it was OTA update.

The battery backup has gone amazingly wild.

It used 50% battery overnight with wifi on, BUT now it spends on 20% WOOooooowwwwwww!

And in my normal usage battery went to about 15% till the evening, when after the update it is still about 60% left

I love the KITKAT, Overall Speed seems to have doubled in response.

Apps open in almost half the time.

Thats it.
