i cant install nothing from recovery or with odin
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Acid0057:
Ouch so you must have the new CM Recovery. Odin can't flash anything? What does it do when you try to flash a new kernel in tar format?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] qerenfil:
nothing, field.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Acid0057:
You need to flash the PIT file and a recovery in TAR format at the same time in Odin for it to work. That's why it isn't working for you right now.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] qerenfil:
I took them from here.

But it does not work and say field
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Acid0057:
It's not working because the PIT file goes in PIT and the TAR twrp kernel goes in PDA you need to do both at the same time.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] levio:
exactly, you have to download both files of point two of that post and to flash at the same time in odin.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] qerenfil:
Yes

I tried both but not

[MENTION=4141005]Lanchon[/MENTION] [MENTION=6159291]Lysergic Acid[/MENTION] I'm using cm 13 kernel with trim enabled, right now. Maybe there's a kind of memory leak. System memory usage grows a lot in less than a day of average usage. I'm also a Greenify user that hibernates a lot of apps. By the way, SwiftKey keyboard, Clash of Clans, ecc.. FC because there is a lack of free memory. In the stats i see that the memory usage is always 99% in 3h+ of uptime (after a day, with or without ZRam enabled).

As you can see in these two screenshots, system loads in 250/270mb of space (like LP), then it grows excessively (up

to 500/550mb, never happened to me with CM12.1)

In addition to this, the memory cache for recent processes is very poor about apps and memory allocation.

Is this ever happened to you?

Could you investigate about this issue?

Edit. the situation 15mins after a soft reboot: 270 mb occupied.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Acid0057:
I'm out of ideas sorry. Hopefully you can get it working.

Keyboard rotation problem

So far, the ROM works flawlessly. The only thing I found, is that whenever I try to use the keyboard on landscape mode, I got this:

Thanks, for making this ROM possible, Lysergic!

After updating from CM12.1 I got following problems:

1. Noisy Google Service errors

2. Recovery now is not working (I can't update / wipe system, can't mount partitions)

3. Auto screen rotation wount rotate my screen.

4. Freedom not works.

Help. What I should do? Can I return stock official Samsung ROM and try to install CM13 again? Would this help?

P.S. so sorry for my broken english :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Acid0057:
1. You still have gapps for 5.1 installed

2. Didn't flash IsoRec twrp

3. Works for me on Feb 10th nightly

4. Not sure what that is

Yes you could go back to official Samsung Rom and try again with my corrections above
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xdroidfreakz:
yes you can do. try update your recovery by flashing twrp signed by lysergic acid from thread cm 12.1 unofficial (just search) or flash recovery which work for you from odin (just search) then clean install from twrp (wipe cache, dalvik, data, system) then flash again cm 13 and gapps 6.0

Nightly Builds Trap

Hands up my mistake! Didn't take any notice of the CM13 on the "nightlies"

First thing was, couldn't get past my Pin lock password.

Then the default browser was"not what I was used to".

I seemed to have only half of the "Cyanogen Recovery" Menu, so I could not achieve anything with that.

I checked on another S2 running CM12.1 and that showed me the complete "Cyanogen Recovery" Menu.

None of my Apps survived the update.

So coward that I am I managed to find a CWM.tar that Odin liked and got back to a working CM12.1.

This is not a moan just a statement. I love the "Nightlies" that you guys put together and that it extends the life of my phones.

One S2 was sitting in a drawer for nearly a year after a swim in a bucket! Now I have the luxury of a "Testing" phone!

Keep up the good work Guys!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
all-clear.

as I could not connect to recovery with adb command (no device found), I dumped the mmcblk0p6 with dd to file (from within recovery's terminal).

I started with 20160209-nightly and activated the developer option to update the recovery and copyied the 20160210-nightly to cmupdater folder.

Then triggered the update process. -> as expected the S2 rebooted automatically to TWRP recovery, flashed the nightly, rebooted again, prepared the apps....

So (up and running again) I took a new dump of mmcblk0p6 and both files had same checksum. So I rebooted to recovery and what should I tell you? It booted into TWRP (as it should).

So nothing is broken, even with that developer setting turned on.

Root access not working.

Already tapped build number 7 times, enabled root in developer settings by changing none to apps & adb (nothing works)

Then somewhere in thread i saw a person saying change apps & adb to apps only (still not working)

What should I do ?

Actually I had installed cm 12.1 in my s2 but after updating to cm 13 through system updates,

Cyanogen recovery installed, which is pathetic!

Phone is not connecting to odin (WTF!)

Please help me!

This sometimes happens to me (CM12.1 and CM13). Then a force stop of AOSP keyboard in setting -> apps helped.

If it happens quite often, better clear data of AOSP keyboard. (keyboard settings (setting .> input..) need to be redone afterwards)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Wachicamo:
Well, this never happened to me on 12.1, and it's not AOSP, it's Google Keyboard(It's the same, but I like to sync my predictions and dictionary), lol.

If you're talking to me about fixing recovery just want to be clear. I'm not a developer. Just read a lot and like to help.

Lanchon helps he does the isorec kernel. Lysigirc Acid is the dev of the Rom [emoji1]
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Saber:
What he means is that what you are asking has been asked many times before from new XDA users.

You should get your USB port fixed as soon as possible so if any more bricks were to occur, you will be able to save your device. That is the only thing you can do right now, get your usb port fixed first, flash LP kernel/recovery via ODIN, install CM13 as well as Isorec Recovery before booting into the OS. Or like you said, flash stock ROM if you desire :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] I.l3oss:
Yeah!! I just hope that kernel bug gets fixed(flashing zips wont work and clear cache) tho i dont want anybody else running to the problem.

I have a question for some developer or expert I would like using the Teamviewer Host or the mirror in Wondershare MobileGO. Teamviewer was working in cm12.5. I repost about this because I think it can have some general interest.

CM13 is fast, it is smooth, but for me battery is slightly worse and charging is a little slower (or is it just me :) )

Other than the already discussed issues, it is running fine on the s2. Not my daily driver because of the reasons being that I love running my own kernel on CM12.1 :)

By any chance is this a clean upgrade? ( Assuming you came from cm 12 since you said 'after installing cm 13' if you didn't I recommend you back up your data somewhere because you will loose it :) before you do these majour steps try doing these

try clearing you google play service cache and google play store cache and try again

remove you google account sync and re sync it shows on utube how to do it

update google play service if that doesn't work

clear data/cache (***Remeber to back up your data***) and flash a fresh gapps (make sure its gapps 6.0) here the link https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps

Also if it still doesn't work. Try to find a latest version of google play service...

CyanogenMod Recovery is not able to mount the sdcards yet, so make sure you install an IsoRec recovery to be able to flash zips from the recovery. I think thats why my update failed

Ah yes He mean this!

IMPORTANT INFORMATIONS ' This is from the first post

If you get an error message when flashing GApps you're probably running out of space in your /system partition. It is recommended to have 1GB to fit the ROM and the GApps ( The stock partition table has 512mb for /system). This thread has a good guide for repartitioning.

It was on the first page first post. Basically you have to pit you system partition to have more space since their wont be enough space for gapps their are lots of guides on how to do that :laugh: :) :) :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] fubo73:
As said your first step is to repartition. Did you? You can use either odin or Lanchon's scripts.

That recovery will work only if you have already installed a kernel with isorec support.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] jojobg:
Search the thread for the actual post stating the actual fix that got merged. But even if OTA is working if you need to perform wipe, I would recommend to have isorec signed on your pc, I assume you have broken usb so upload to phone with workaround via cloud file service - dropbox, gdrive etc. reboot to CM default recovery, flash isorec.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Acid0057:
Which recovery do you have installed? Cyanogenmod Recovery or Twrp? If Twrp Wipe everything and install fresh copies of Cm13, Google Apps for Marshmallow 6.0 and IsoRec Recovery Twrp. All three must be flashed before rebooting.

That should fix your bootloop but you will loose all you're data.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pippone121263:
try to take out your battery for 10 min.

after that to start in download mode and see if odin is able to see it,

if not maybe there is a problem with driver, in this case try to download and install samsung kies (the normal one not kies3), maybe it will help odin to see your phone,

if yes flash a stock samsung rom and start all over, with costum rom.

hope it can help

Hi,

I guess you can volunteer to become a ROM developer ... I think we S2 users are blessed that LA is taking the challenge to still update CM for us. If nobody does that for the S2 plus you got bad luck ... I don't think it is just "some configurations" ...

happy to share my feedbacks :)

Hi,

can make space on system and using gapps-6.0.x-20150112-minimal-edition-signed.zip without repit my system and after many reboot , i have no FC about Google Play services, i have my account OK and i can install busybox (even i know there is toybox on android that replace it) , then Nandroid Manager which want busybox to run, run fine now.

Rootexplorer that didnt never work before , on cm13 , work now .

so if PrebuiltGmsCore.apk and all files from this gapps work fine on this rom, maybe PrebuiltGmsCore on data can work now, because the release i made before FCs after reboot, when PrebuiltGmsCore have auto update itself :(

with gapps-6.0.x-20150112-minimal-edition-signed.zip i tryied, PrebuiltGmsCore.apk (39Mo) from system has been updated to data/com.google.android.gms-1/base.apk (41Mo) and phonesky from system to data/com.android.vending-1/base.apk updated too (15Mo)

No-Pit-system to do list (for me)

changing the approach, keep the gapps like it is, the smallest we can find and that work, but manage the space on system to make the gapps working without repit system, try to make runing the deported apks from cm13/system to /data.

- flash the cm13 rom

- find a way to move some apks from system to data , some apk like Eleven (3Mo) and cmwallpapers (9Mo) worked on /data....

- flash gapps-6.0.x-20150112-minimal-edition-signed.zip like it is

- Even, if working like this , will try to push PrebuiltGmsCore.apk to data, the ultimate test.

thanks.

oh, now let's try Hangouts or Google+ to install because last time i test this, Google claimed another account to run G+ or Hangout, didnt recognize those i used/signed in settings/account

Yessssssssssssss :) :) :)

EDIT (add 2 pics) : Google+ , Hangouts and root explorer installed from store work fine after reboot :) (G+ and Hangouts signed with google account from settings when i launched them 1rst time )
