rINanDO said that MindTheGApps need the toybox version of TWRP 3.6.1 (on first post).

Maybe it also apply to BiTGApps

Its strange but i guess it related to gapps

Which gapps do you use?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ran000:
I have tried both: with gapps and without gapps. I guess that it is security staff problem:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fargh123:
First i flashed the i9100 LOS. 19.1.pit and i9100 LOS 19.1_android-12.1.0_r2.tar

Then i full wipe and flashed the latest build

But still cannot flash gapps or mods even 20 kb audio mods i changed the twrp to toybox version but it give the error 1 and failed to mount '/preload'

Any solution?

Hi, can this rom be installed on galaxy mega I9200..?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] roo^y:
My guess is NO, in which case v12.1/LOS19.1 won't work with it. I did a search, & there's a chance you can use v11/LOS18.1 https://xdaforums.com/t/android-11-for-galaxy-mega-6-3-runs-perfectly.4397793/ This time make sure it's an exact model (TWRP seems to have melius? & ROMs meliusltexx?) Then if you trust something on sourceforge & not here at XDA.. either way, always backup before experimenting!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] michael 45:
Hello, thank you for your reply.. I installed LOS 18.1 but the camera was showing crooked and this problem has not been fixed in any LOS 18.1 updates and unfortunately I am currently using stock rom.

anyway thanks again..

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ResurrectedRobot:
Dear @rINanDO ,

Thank you for your development effort.

I'm currently trying to build LineageOS for i9100 from source and I would like to use your device tree for that. What I can see on your GitHub is that you made modifications to non-device-specific directories, too (e.g. frameworks/base).

I'm unsure whether I have to include these non-device-specific directories into my roomservice.xml, too in order to build a running rom.

Could you therefore please share the roomservice.xml you're using or tell me, which non-device-specific folders must be replaced by your forks?

Thank you in advance.

Yours,

ResurrectedRobot
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nikkerston:
What do i have to do if i want to go back to stock rom?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ze7zez:
Use the odin or heimdall method with the repartition option.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nikkerston:
i found out that i needed the Stock pit file and some one had uploaded it aldready so i downloaded that and put it in odin with repartition enabled and flashed the stock rom and it was up and running stock once againg
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rINanDO:
Hi RessurectedRobot,

I use some script to setup the environment. See https://github.com/rINanDO/lineage-manifest. Run Setup-env.sh to setup your environment. And use rebase-env.sh to update or rebase the applied patches if haven't done that already.

Regards,

Noob question, is it possible to flash on I9100G?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] roo^y:
Noob answer is no, from my interpretation of what I read on wikipedia years ago, it's a different model ..if correct, it'd need it's own build or port, idk :unsure: (what ever the case, right or wrong, sorry! 😟)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rINanDO:
That is true. The i9100g has different hardware. It is like the same horsepower but totally different engine.

I'm about ready to *jump in the deep end* with installs, after hoarding 2 of these. (Probably time I head back to where i brought them 2nd hand, for a battery upgrade too):p

I've messed around with old Motos MB525 Defy/MB526 Defy+ that could be flashed with recovery & microSD. Recently used platform-tools on linux for a Pixel, but this will be a 1st time for Samsung & Odin/Win.

Have x64 win10, but hoping to take a shortcut with a x32 USBoot XP (not BartPE etc) Will soon find out if experimenting with that bare-bones distro will work, with or without Kies. Found info "vol down + home button takes it directly into download mode" (And the longer version: *turn the phone off, take the USB out, and press volume up, home button and the power button together. hold them until you see the 'FORCE UPLOAD BY KEY PRESSING' screen. Now plug the USB back in*)

This still the method to use odin, or is that what ticking the Auto Reboot checkbox is for? (from a running android system)

Does the bootloader need to be unlocked, or unnecessary to just start using odin?

The one with the telco-branding, I put a data-only SIM of another carrier in it, but wasn't much of a test to see if it's carrier locked or not (nor have I gone to check seller doccos recently to check if advertised as unlocked):rolleyes:

Does it matter with stock, if wanting all bands working for LOS? Other carrier registered the network, which hopefully is promising (in terms of not having to do additional steps) ..lazy:ROFLMAO:

The best answer I got on IRC for wanting to know if I should use ext4 on the microSD card, was "try it & find out":LOL: (This probably applies to most/all of my qns, given there's a 2nd device, if I get the 1st one wrong :cowboy:..in which case, SORRY ABOUT THIS NOVEL!!/Thanks for reading)

I need LineageOS 19.1 for my Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 too, It's possible?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] roo^y:
Back to my main job here :LOL: Not possible, when I'm assuming no one is working on it (I only web searched your model with this forum) & you're probably well aware of the Galaxy Grand 2 Android Development & Galaxy Grand 2 Original Android Development at https://xdaforums.com/c/samsung-galaxy-grand-2.2820/ I see there that 9 Pie/LOS16 is discontinued, but I hope there is still plenty of fun to have with it, in it's retirement years ;)

I don't own this device, but have you made up your mind on whether you'll build Android 13 for this thing? It's just cool having an 11 year old phone running modern Android. It's probably the oldest phone running 12.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ze7zez:
Unfortunately the respectable XDA forum does not recognize this ROM as android 12. I wrote a request to change the list but got no reply. Maybe someone will find a way to add i9100 to the list:

Awesome, it'll probably make headlines again just like your other ROMs. This phone has been supported for so long, it puts modern phones to shame. Maybe I should get one off eBay just for fun.

Any chances to have Magisk v25.2?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] roo^y:
The furthest I've got so far in installing, is using JOdin3 (from github's /GameTheory-/jodin3/releases/tag/v1.0) on linux (EasyOS x64 openembedded)

Heimdall gets detected from where I put it in /user/local/bin/

PIT installs without issue. Then there's soon this problem:

Uploading CACHE

39%

ERROR: Failed to confirm end of file transfer sequence!

ERROR: CACHE upload failed!

Full output here: https://vomitb.in/viqCrp0qUH

It reboots, & after the GT-I9100 screen, it loops the Telco & Samsung splash screens

-Only tried one cable from one USB3 port of a 4-port HUB so far, ^with latest progress^ *edit* Used a similar x64 PC w/ same OS, & got exact error, direct from a USB2 port

-The JOdin3 on a FWUL distro would flash the PIT, & just keep 'running'..

-Didn't try it on their newer mAid distro yet

-Used Zadig on win10 x64 to update the USB driver. Odin didn't detect it, so I tried Kies. Still wasn't showing up (perhaps it needs Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 Redistributable Package (x86), i didn't check:unsure:)

-installing Kies on the random x32 USBoot winXP distro, asked for internet connection, which i didn't bother with

-yet to read through all pages of this thread, to see if it's common :whistle:

-am curious to see whether cmd

heimdall flash --RECOVERY twrp-3.6.1_9.0-i9100.img

will get that latest TWRP installed after new PIT (prev. had no luck getting a 3.5 version (7MB) installed on the stock 8MB partition) o_O

*edit* Ran experiment. TWRP installed, but rebooting with vol up, home & power just goes to stock recovery :oops:

Answers my wondering if the PIT only needs flashing once, which appears to be yes

*MOAR edits* I went back to page 12, to see I could get a twrp.tar.md5 from OP of LOS18.1. JOdin got this on, & was able to save logs & install latest TWRP3.6.1 img file

..then back to page 11, which shows to do lots of wiping before installing LOS :)

I SHOULD HAVE IT FROM HERE!! :D A premature (y) THANKS! (y) for when I do these last steps after some rest :sleep:

Hi all! At the beginning I want to express my gratitude to RINANDO for this good work! Installation went without problems. Works great. There are some points that I want to clarify. I wanted to install Viper4android, installed in this order⁚ 1-Audio_Modification_Library-v3.5(54).zip ( 11.5 KB ),2-viper_module_20.4.zip ( 7.53 MB ) using Magisk 24.1. It was not easy, but in the end Everything worked, BUT the Camera stopped working. I had to remove the viper. Where can I find the substrate and themes for this firmware?

Hello everyone! I am newbie here.

I am stuck and need your help. I just recently updated my Galaxy S II GT-I9100 with Lineage 19.1 but after flash, I am stuck at boot loop, no matter what I did try but in vain. I even tried flashing Custom ROMs with Lower version but still the same. It gets flashed successfully but remain stuck on bookloop animation and nothing happens from there.

Please help!

Yes, you can. It is possible. I install and use this ROM on the Japanese version.

Many people install the initial Japanese version ROM first with Odin3 and then install TWRP, but TWRP may work without installing the initial ROM. I installed TWRP after installing the initial ROM and bricked it, but I installed TWRP after installing the latest official ROM and it worked.

Hi @rINanDO , I wish to add another proof that you made a great job. I installed LOS19 on a 10yo S2 and I would say that everything works fine.

it was stuck in the downloading mode, so

2- formatted data - wiped Dalvik/Art Cache, Cache, System, Preload, Non-emulated Storage

3-installed lineage-19.1-20220613-UNOFFICIAL-i9100.zip

now it's up and running, yet can't install anything (what I've tried at least) using twrp.

How to FULL clean flash LOS 19.1 and TWRP 3.6.1_9.0

Warning: This will erase your data-partition completely!

Download i9100-LOS 19.1 via ODIN.zip and unzip it on your Windows PC.

Start the Odin3 v3.07.exe in the ODIN3 v3.07-folder

Choose for PIT: i9100-LOS-19.1.pit

Choose for PDA: i9100-LOS-19.1_android-12.1.0_r2.tar

Make sure the following checkboxes are checked:

Auto Reboot (optional)

Re-Partition

PDA

Click Start!

Reboot your phone and LOS 19.1 will start. First start could take about a few minutes.

Mine fails to format anything. It seems the PIT only gives me 7MB of space.

On the off-chance that anyone actually tried this...

I couldn't really get the Snapchat login to work, because of Root/Safetynet issues or whatever.

I enabled the Safetynet module from one of the previous pages and masked Magisk, but it didn't solve the issue.

However, I logged into Snapchat on my Xperia Z5 (also on LineageOS and rooted) and used Titanium Backup to back Snapchat up and then imported that backup on my Galaxy S2 and was logged in and the app basically works.

BUT

The camera doesn't work in Snapchat. Which is kinda crucial.

Does anyone know if this is fixable?

To install TWRP 3.6.1 you need to enlarge your recovery-partition.

You can download manually the PIT file here.

Download TWRP 3.6.1_9.0 here:
