[Q] rom install help - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey.i m currently running cm7.1 stable build.i saw this F1 galaxy SII rom in the i9000 development section.i downloaded the rom files and tried to flash through cwm following the instructions.but on reboot i got stuck as the phone automatically rebooted into recovery everytime.so any tips as to what i must do?

F1 Galaxy SII is based on XXJVU. You need to flash to the XXJVU first using odin, then flash custom kernel such as CF-Root or semaphore, then only flash the F1 Galaxy SII rom.

ROM manager and Installing Darkys ROM

I have Samsung Galaxy s i9000 Froyo 2.2, Rooted with Z4root and lagfixed with OCLF. I have downloaded the Darkys ROM 9.2extreme Edition and also the Darkys ROM configurator from market. I have flashed the clockworkmod recovery by using ROM manager. And backed up the data by titanium backup (free version) . Now if I have to flash the Darkys rom from SD card using the ROM manager will I have a problem with recovery 2e? Or it is better to flash the Darkys ROM by Odin?.....Really confused and want to make decision...don't want a brick and data loss...

Either is good. Flash the CWM version using 'install ZIP from SD Card' in CWM (use the three button recovery to get there). The other option is to flash with ODIN using the 512 PIT and the ODIN version. The ODIN version requires first flashing with ODIN, the flashing again with the CWM version, but produes a 'cleaner' install.
Make sure you undo your lagfix first
Thanks guys

Yeah resurrection seems to be better for moving from the stock rom to darkys. I have decided to go for the cleaner Odin flashing. Can I flash clockworkmod recovery by using ROM manager? The official Darkys site has mentioned rom manager as an option to installing CMW in their prerequisites section. But in the custom rom installation guide they have given the steps to copy the update.zip file, enter the recovery mode by 3 button combo and then manually flash twice to get CMW. Which one is the better? ROM manager seems simpler for flashing CMW.....

If you flash Resurrection you have no need for ROM Manager as the ROM includes Clockwork Mod already.

OK if I flash darkys resurrection, then would I have to root with CF root to get recovery 2e?or I can skip that step? I think the resurrection tutorial at xda has not mentioned it.

Not yet. Just flashed the clockworkmod from the rom manager. And went straight for the back up current rom. But the rom doesn't back up and it still shows recovery 3e...

Is it because of the 3e recovery? Do I need to flash some kernel like speedmod or CF root to get recovery 2e?

[Q] soft bricked tab u.u

My problem is that i flash my tab but, when it boots the os, vibrates once, and then three times (like an app crash, i think)
I change the kernel, then the rom. THEN, i wanted to go back to stock and flashed stock over the other kernel, and other rom.
Now i turn it on, and hangs on the samsung screen, and gives app error.
Right now, i'm downloading the previous rom, 'cause i think i have to flash that rom and then use heimdall to flash the stock kernel.
Any ideas ?
KERNEL: HumberOS 05052011
ROM: HumberOS 1.2.5 i think
SGT P1000L
I just want to flash cf root to flash overcome
Thanks in advance !
Overcome kernel isnt compatible with latin tabs. Get a stock rom for your tab and flash it with repartition. Basically follow instructions on flashing that stock rom. Make sure your tab is fully charged.
check this thread , http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133590
THANKS !
DarkPal: Yes ! you are right ! But i never flash that kernel ! I've flashed HumberOS Kernel, wich is compatible with my tab model.
I just refered Overcome 'cause the same developer of HumberOS ported CF Root Kernel (Gingerbread) to P1000L and N, and he tried Overcome and CM7 and he get them runnin' on a latin tab.
I've flashed my tab one, two, three times with repartition. But it's still getting app crash when it boot the OS.
:/
k0sh: I read your guide before posting here, my friend. That's why i know that my tab is only Soft bricked. But i have flashed my tab (with ODIN and the stock ROM for my tab model) a thousand times. I don't work.
Both: Well, the previous ROM (HumberOS 1.2.5 it's a .zip for Cw... if i only can flash a kernel with Cw...)
Maybe i'm just give a try to Heimdall.
Thanks !
Solved
I just flash a stock 2.3 ROM and my tab boots finally (ona complete week turned off D, then CF-root, and now i'm flashing Overcome Hermes... just waiting the initial boot !!!!!!
Thanks a lot !!!!!

bootloader question

currently im on F1 Galaxy S2 V7 rom and I would like to change to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1155776 it's a XXJVU based rom so do i need to flash the clean stock XXJVU rom and do repartition first or I can just install the rom without any issues? thank you!
Both are GB custom roms. You can straightaway flash it in CWM.
Yes you can but its always better to do reparation with stock rom to avoid any conflict and errors.

Upgrade first to gingerbread before you flash any custom rom. Once you have GB, install CWM and flash any rom you like..
