Cyanogenmod upgrade attempted, gone horribly wrong - Please Help!

Hi,
I have recently rooted my Galaxy S2 with the CF-Root which worked. I then tried to flash the Cyanogenmod using ClockworkMod Recovery.
When I turned the phone back on I found that it was bootlooping. When I tried to go back to recovery mode, the phone just when to Odin downloading mode. I read that to fix this problem, I would need to reflash my firmware.
When I tried to find my firmware however, all the links I could find had had the content removed. I bought the phone online and don't know which country it is from, but I am using the phone in New Zealand. I wrote down these details before the root:
model GT-I9100
android version 2.3.4
Baseband version I9100XXKI1
Kernel version [email protected] #2
Build number GINGERBREAD.XWKI4
If anyone could help me I would really appreciate it and will love you long time.
Cheers

Update
FIXED: I found the CM9 Resurrection Edition and used Odin on the computer.

Galaxy Tab constantly prompting for system update

Hey guys,
I was hoping someone here could throw me a bone on a problem I am having with a Galaxy Tab 2 I recently got for my wife. For some reason it keeps telling her there is a software update. She has tried to install it multiple times and it appears to go through successfully but the prompt to update comes back again a few hours later. If we click "Later" it gives a a maximum time of 3 hours before it reminds us to update again. i saw someone else had asked about this in another part of the forum and they were directed here but I never found an answer.
So... The numbers:
Model: GT-P3113
Android Ver. 4.0.4
Kernel version: [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMPT TUE JUL 17 23:47:56 KST2012
Build Number: IMM76D.P311UEBLG5
I've gone in through the start menu and cleared the cache, next step I am considering is starting from scratch with a wipe to factory fresh. Before i did that though I thought I would check here.
Anyone have any advice?
**EDIT**
Just for clarification, this appears to be a system update. Not an app or anything like that. If I go intot he preferences and check for a software update it immediately prompts for it.

Rooted? If so, I was told to try to browse system/app folder for the Fota.apk. delete that and reboot. I've basically got the same problem and posed the same question HERE.

Its simple root your device you will get no ota notofications as when device is rooted ota is disabled on it....
And if it still shows up Then freeze software update,fota app and you are done...
Alternatively you can try resetting your tab or flashing a fresh stock rom or any other on your device..,,

Thanks for the replies guys. :highfive:
My wife has no need for a rooted device and I'd rather leave her in the somewhat walled garden on it. Not that she cant handle it but I'd rather not tempt fate with anything. I am after all her tech support. :laugh:
So this morning I decided to run it one last time before I did a factory wipe on it and oddly it took longer to update then on previous occasions. Now when I go check for system updates it tells me no updates are available.
What is strange is that we tried it several times before and nothing changed. Now we are seeing a new Kernel version and build number:
Model: GT-P3113
Android Ver. 4.0.4
Kernel version: 3.0.8-999349
[email protected] #1
SMP PREEMPT Thu Aug 23 23:43:39 KST 2012
Build Number: IMM76D.P3113UEBLH2
Of course murphy's law decided to wait until AFTER I posted here at XDA to get the update installed properly.
Ah well... At least it is resolved.

Actually, I've been having the same problem. One thing I've noticed is that all of the Roms out there for SGT2 appear to be for the wifi/retail models (GT-P3xxx). The verizon models aren't versioned that way. It is simply the SCH-I705 (no GT-P model designation). Therefore, and correct me if I am mistaken, there are no roms compatible with this hardware.
Also, My device is rooted, I still get OTA notifications. For my device, there is no fota.apk in the system/apps folder, so I either need to find a rom that will work with this phone, unroot/update, or do a factory reset and hope it fixes it. Right now I'm pretty frustrated with this damn thing...

[Q] GT-i9105P android 4.2.2 constantly rebooting

Hi all, I'm new to the forums. So I am very sorry if I post in the wrong section or something...
I have this problem, with android 4.2.2 for my samsung galaxy s2 plus device, after I updated the old 4.1.2 with samsung kies.. I was using the 4.2.2 fine with no problems... untill my device rebooted out of the blue. And so it started rebooting constantly every 1-2 hours or so... And I was wondering if anyone could tell me where the problem is... I tried various firmwares from samfirmware.com flashed with odin did factory reset. nothing helped. but the funny thing is once I flashed back to 4.1.2 android device worked perfectly fine, no reboots. I really want to use the new 4.2.2 but it irritates me that it constantly reboots the device. Maybe some of you have encountered the same problems? anyone could help?

Constant reboot does not happen on me but deep sleep.
You might want to flash the firmware again, perhaps a newer one like Switzerland's.

try flashing I9105pPXXUBMI1 firmware..dont have any problem with it..

Maybe you should first backup your data, then do a full wipe of /cache /data, dalvik cache (also with the stock recovery)
Try also to format internal memory and your sd if you have any, so try to flash again with odin

Could the reboots happen because of my sim card? I've read somewhere that the problem might be caused by the sim card inserted...

reboot constantly

which version odin you use?
boot loop maybe - battery issue , kernel issue
if you flash again:
boot loop maybe - battery issue , kernel issue
if you flash again:
1) backup your data - sms,contacs,media,apps .....
2) make sure to install latest kies - for the usb driver
3) remove sim and charge to 70% at least recommend 100% after that remove charge and dont plug charger until the phone is flashed and work
4) press 3 buttons : left down + home + right until it get down mode
5) kill kies process in the task manger
6) start odin - i recommend odin 3.07 put it on c:\ with shortcut to desktop
7) plug the phone to pc with usb
8) flash the stock rom you can download from samsung you need to know what version i9105p - with nfc 9105 without nfc
wait until odin give the message at top left pass in green color unplug your phone ,
09) wait 1 minute , remove battery for 2 minutes , insert battery, insert sim again
10) press 2 buttons : left up + home - choose Wipe data-Factory reset - you move with the left buttons up down ,choose = home button , reboot
11) wait until boot complete - 2 - 5 minutes
12) you need to see welcome screen
13) if not , the version rom stock or the country may not suite to your phone[/QUOTE]
you may download from site samfirmware stock rom
search your model 9105p or 9105

Thats just it. I've flashed the latest version of firmware and took out my sim card. No reboots at all. Inserted it back... reboots are back. Should I getnew sim card? Its such a strange issue...

For me this is the worst 4.2.2 firmware for S2+.....A lot of lag and bugs.....The first german 4.2.2 update is the best for me (best performance and amazing battery life)-That's my personal opinion

Maybe you're right. But still I find this firmware better than old 4.1.2.. and I reccommend it only to those who experience the same rebooting problem as me. Its the only 4.2.2 firmware that doesnt make my galaxy s2 plus reboot by itself so I dont have much of a choice

[Q] New Note Pro?

Hey guys, I just got my Note Pro a week ago and just started looking into rooting. I keep getting a notification about a 128mb stability update. I would assume it's gonna update to the latest build but I'm not sure what the latest build is or if it'll be rootable afterwords. my current build is KOT49H.P900UEU1ANAE. What is the latest build #? Is there a list of updates somewhere detailing what the improvements are? I just want to root, debloat, turn off OTA and remove KNOX.
Edit: sorry forgot to mention it's just the wife model SM-P900

So 48 views and not one person can tell me the latest build# ? I'll figure out the rest.

Have you checked SamMobile?
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-P900/XAR/
How i got there:
http://www.sammobile.com
1. Click Firmware on the top.
2. Click the greyed out firmware database link under the blue banner.
3. Under "Select your firmware" I picked Tablet-->Android-->SM-P900....-->Cellular South (which matches the US variants)

Thanks muzzy! I had already been to SamMobile but all it had was foreign countries listed. I didn't know about Cellular South being the US version. I'll look again.
Edit: oh look a list of the updates and release dates! My Wi - fi reception seems slow, do any of the update fix that?

I honestly can't say. I'm on NC5 which is dated back in April and have no major issues.
I'm rooted and debloated though, not that this would impact the wifi performance . .

48 views doesn't mean 48 users. About 44 of those are Google Content Crawler, which is Google search engine's bots crawling the net for content to display in google.com. It is an automated process.
Samsung doesn't release changelists, so we don't know what each update does beyond what we can see.

Thanks for the help guys! I just accepted the first update and it took me to ANC5. I guess I'll have to accept all updates until current and then try CF-Auto-Root. I'll report back then.

Actually I just got my tablet like a week ago as well. I m on the same build no as well....haven't updated yet. I also haven't installed Knox either. There is a download arrow on the Knox icon and if I click the icon it starts downloading so I just cancel it. I am thinking of rooting as well. Well what I m trying to say is...keep the thread updated and I will just follow your lead.....hehe.

It always helps to know your country as well as different countries are on slightly different versions. You can always go to sanmobile.com, click on firmware and search for p-900. That will give you the list of all the latest ROMs for different countries / carriers. US based ROMs are listed as "Cellular South".

Successful Root!
Okay guys sorry it's taken so long to respond, I had hernia surgery on Monday so I've been behind on getting this rooted.
My plan was to use CF-Auto-Root and then load TWRP recovery and then load "Debloat Stock Variant" by Gatsrom. I decided to do it in that order because I wasn't sure I could load a custom recovery without being rooted first.
I accepted all updates up to the current = P900UEU1BNK1. Using Win 7 and loaded Samsung drivers. Downloaded ODIN 3.09, Odin 3.07 came with CF-Auto-Root and downloaded TWRP. Booted into download mode and made sure ODIN recognized my P900. And this is when to fun began! Everything seem to be going okay but I did run into a snag. I used ODIN 3.07 because that's what came with Auto- Root and I'd read somewhere of people having trouble with 3.09??? Anyways I got a red "FAIL" message and my screen displayed multicolored lines. I tried running it in ODIN 3.09 and got the same result. (i didn't disconnect anything between the 3.07 or 3.09 attempts, maybe i should have?). I disconnected my P900 and it rebooted giving me a Firmware Error screen telling me to use Kies "Recovery Mode". I tried Kies Recovery but Kies3 wouldn't even recognize the P900. (I started freaking a little at this point!) Anyways, I decided to try and load TWRP because I thought I've got nothing to lose! I loaded TWRP into ODIN and it took, so I thought, because my P900 rebooted into an up and running normal state. (Big Sigh!) I tried booting into recovery but TWRP didn't take, it came up to stock recovery, trying to load TWRP just kicked the P900 out of the Firmware Error state it was in?? I decided to give Auto-Root another go after rebooting Win 7. Used ODIN 3.09 this time and everything went fine and I was rooted! Then I loaded TWRP and it loaded fine! I performed a TWRP backup at this point and things seem to be running smoothly. I still need to load the Debloat Variant, that's what's on my plate for today.

You are a much braver sole than I. Hope all goes smoothly.

I could be wrong but I would think that if one is going to a different ROM then rooting isn't necessary. Simply use Odin to flash TWRP but ensure that auto reboot is not enabled in Odin when you do it. If you allow the device to begin booting into stock system it's going to overwrite recovery again (with stock recovery) so what you want to do is flash TWRP, and once it's flashed FORCE a reboot directly into recovery again using the hardware keys on the device. At that point you can do an nandroid backup and then flash your ROM.

I'm not that brave treetop! I just know my way around a computer and I've rooted a few of these things. Plus I know the guys here on XDA are good at helping out if you hit a snag. Luckily I figured this one out on my own! You've just gotta do your research before jumping in and search read, search read, search read! I provided some links to get you started....get to it!

Thanks for the info muzzy, I'll remember that for next time! :good:
I did get the Debloat Variant up and running and loaded Xposed framework with sdcard full access. Everything seems to be running smoothly!

Ok So I finally got to it and successfully rooted (in first try, if I may add ). Thanks to xblue's guide/heroic efforts I avoided certain things and everything went smoothly. So Basically I installed samsung drivers using Kies, rebooted pc (Win 8.1). Downloaded cf autoroot and downloaded odin 3.09 as autoroot comes with 3.07. Replaced ONLY 3.07 odin exe with 3.09. Started Odin in Admin mode, put the tablet in download mode. Attched to pc and Odin recognized it. Then Gave it a final thought......lol. Pressed Start, device booted couple times. Then PASS appeared on the Odin window after like 30 secs. Installed root checker...successfully rooted. Installed TWRP via odin and flashed that successfully. Made a full back up and installed a ROM of my choice. I am a happy camper.

Sweet Deal singhsta! I'm glad my efforts were a help!

i would update to the latest version.. i tried using the original one that you have however i got the screen flicker issue so had to update.. the first update isnt very good wifi keeps dropping but the most recent version doesn't tho you may have a bug where every time you unlock the screen the tablet is still asleep even though the icons are visible so you have to lock the screen again and unlock. however if you factory reset this bug goes away.
i find the latest version is the most stable and battery life is better if you disable all the unnecessary apps that you can i usually get rid of most of the samsung back up apps and all the google ones bar the ones it needs to run play store etc and maintaining the ones that sync for back up.
wifi was really slow when i first got it and would drop very annoying but now it seems better but have experienced slow wifi i think it's a hardware issue all note pro's have in built that should have been sorted by the latest build. i hope they finally give it an update in the coming months even to 4.4.4. or something.

WiFi is not working...

Hi,
The first is to apologize for the language used, and the length of the text. I am from Spain and my level of English is low, so as it was a fairly long post I used Google Translator and I know that makes it very literal translation ...
I write this post to see if anyone can help me or give some idea ... I explain the problem.
I own for some time ago the Tablet, Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2012) . He has always liked to try new ROMs, so far without much trouble, but .... I tempted fate a lot.
At some point, after changing the Recovery and ROM, to test Marshmallow, the WiFi stopped working, which is a problem in a device of this type, you lose a lot of functionality.
I have tried many ROMS, about 10, and none of them work properly. It is true that some seems, makes the attempt, working. But it does not work.
I have also tried different Recoveries (CWRM, TWRP, Stock, HigOnAndroid, ....), and I have not gotten the Tablet WiFi work.
With all these tests, entering DOWNLOAD mode, it indicates that the device model is the Note 10.1 GT-N8000, the model without WiFi. And when you install a ROM, and go to Settings/Info, the system said that the Tablet is the GT-N8000 model.
This has led me to perform multiple tests:
A- Flash several ROMS by Recovey, usually used the TWRP.
B- Change Recovey installed by Odin 3.10
C- The last thing I have tried, is back to the original ROM and Recovery by Odin 3.10
All these attempts, multiple, have thrown me the same result. The WiFi does not work, and continues to indicate that is the model GT-N8000
The questions are:
1 - Is it normal, even the GT-N8013 model DOWNLOAD mode appears as the GT-8000?
2- Is there any way to get back to its original state, GT-N8013, with WiFi?
3- What Recovery would be most appropriate? (I once used the TWRP)
4- What ROM for this Tablet is the most appropriate? (This question is very personal, I've always liked Omega Rom)

What model do you have .

Samsung Galaxy Note (2012) Gt-N8013

Hi, WiFi isn't working because you probabily stay with a older bootloader but with 6.0. When you flashed the MM rom, your tablet at which version of android was? Maybe i think 4.4.x if WiFi doesn't start. You need to update the bootloader into marshmallow or try look on the thread where you found the rom if there are some modem updates. By the way, if you want to get the stock firmware and install it on your tab, first go in sammobile site and download the firmware ( pay attention to version 4g / without 4g ) and then put your device in download mode->connect to odin-> on "PDA" load the firmware you downloaded -> start -> wait 10/12 mimutes and you will have the tablet as you bought for the first time.
And check if the rom is right for your device( because when kernel is different if the device start it can have some issues like WiFi )
Hope i help you
