I'm confused what you're asking, ask your question clearly. To me it just sounds like you're complaining.

You didn't update? so your not on a locked bootloader? Also you should beable to boot from stock slot unless you did somthing to it. I don't think anyone is working on it because I think you may be the first to have this problem.

Come to think of it, I'm not seeing your name in the Safestrap thread Harley. At least not from the last three weeks. If you have been trouble with Safestrap loading roms, there's no post from you about in that thread:

He posted in the casual thread, not the safestrap thread. He seems to be the only one not able to flash 4.3 TW ROMs through safestrap. He needs to calm down and explain exactly what steps he is taking when trying to flash a ROM through safestrap and plenty of people here who will help him. Also, he may get more and better help by posting in the safestrap thread.

I received the phone with the 4.3 update. Im rooted. Ive got safestrap. Ive gotta stock slot and its fine. Its the others I cant get to take a rom. It took one once. But it sucked. Random shutdowns. Lag. FCs. All kinda crap. So heres the steps. DL rom. Create rom slot. Flash rom. It reboots and gets past the recovery/continue page then goes black. Thats it.

My device did this bone stock aswell...not sure why. Normally you will get a custom unlock screen after rooting with odinand flashing a recovery thru ez recovery on a locked bootloader. the fix, unlock your bootloader.
no I didn't do nothing that's why it's so weird I'm not even rooted,I have all the tools but haven't done it yet.

[Q] need help removing SuperSU

Hi guys,
I recently took the latest OTA update and lost root, which is fine. My problem is, is that I cannot remove SuperSU and still have that annoying custom (with an unlocked padlock image) at start up. I did a factory reset thinking it would get rid of them, but it didn't. Can anyone help me out? DroidModderX suggested to flash a stock image in odin, but I don't know how to do that. I am still in the infant stages of doing stuff like this
Thanks!

Remove Custom Padlock

So, folks. I am pretty new to the community, and would like to start trying to contribute some useful information. :good:
Pretty straightforward... The way I managed to remove my custom padlock on my device was to flash a modem after I flashed my ROM and kernel. Upon rebooting, I would no longer have the padlock. Has worked for me dozens of times. (With touch-wiz based roms)
If every one else finds that this will not work for them, let me know, and I will gladly remove the post.

Thanks I didn't know about this method I've been using triangle away which usually involved many steps including editing my buildprop so it can read my actual model.
This way looks much faster.
Didn't work for me.

This procedure above works some of the time not all the time...quickest would be have a original stock rom backup...restore it run triangle away..done...flash or restore back to whatever.
This method did not work for me on MDL and will not work on the OTA update of MF3.

It worked for me on mf3. Maybe because mine came with mf3 and I didn't get the OTA.

My understanding is that it's good if you needed warranty repair. Other than that, it doesn't mean anything. Folks, anyone back me up or refute this?
.
Triangle away is really just to clear/reset your binary counter to 0.it will also remove the padlock in some instances.

My S2 loves getting stuck

Well title says everything... My S2 literally LOVES to get stuck... I can't press the home button nor the other buttons (back, search, menu). The screen doesn't respond. When I lock the screen and unlock it works back again but in some games it happens repeatedly... I really need help! btw sorry for my bad english!!

Instead of making a new thread every 6 hours maybe you should start one thread for all of your issues.
To help you..you need to help us. What ROM are you using? What version of that ROM? What recovery did you use to flash? This might help you to get the answer you are looking for with just a little more info.

How did you flash? Custom recovery or Odin? For the limited time that I was on stock JB 4.1.2 I did not have the issues you are. Best bet would be to backup all your files to a computer and Odin back to stock. That usually sorts out alot of issues.

I was on 4.2.2 cyanogen (i think that's the correct name) and then used Odin to go back to 4.1.2. I have this problem for a while... It happened a couple of times before going to 4.2.2 but not as frequent as now... It's really hard to use my phone without having to lock it and reopen the app I was using...

So it only happens when you use a certain app? If so..I would say the app is causing this and it may not be fully compatible.

Wipe cache and dalvik cache..maybe fix permissions to. If that does not help...Odin back to stock again. Sounds like something got borked in your flashing process (in other words user error).

Maybe people who can answer are just a little busy, just saying...
Or maybe people just have no idea how to help you because you're the only one who is having safestrap issues, if you can't get help here I suggest trying to use Google to attempt to find someone who is having the same issue.
I would assume being out of space would give you problems.
