Does anyone have experience in using this? I bought it but it does not work. 1st it forecloses immediately if I try and back up my current kernel. I have also auto-flashed every kernel in there and they say successful but are not. I reboot and same OLD kernel. I am not sure what I am missing but very frustrated with this app.

That's your problem. Efrant has a good root guide, link is in his signature.

He has done two or three updates in the last couple days to address those issues. You should at least read his kernel thread, even if you are new and cannot post there yet. Read the last three or four pages.

K so when I fist got my gnex I could use it with my Bluetooth speakers from a far range I could be like two rooms away and could still here it fine and it would be smooth. That was stock. Now that I'm rooted and running aokp it is horrible. I can't be more than 4 or 5 feet from the speakers without it cutting in and out and being really unusable.... would this be the rom (aokp M5) or the kernel (latest Franco nightly)?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Could be either, especially if AOKP is using the wrong bcmdhd.cal for the device.

You answered your own question. Go back to stock if you need things to work properly. Custom roms are experimental at best, since they introduce all kinds of problems, including app incompatibility, hardware instability and broken features (like voicemail notifications not working).
Good luck.

Looking at it now.
Well, it is the right one. I know the Verizon version has been modified to fix choppy BT. It may or may not work for you. You are welcome to try it, but back up your current one.
Okay thanks I will try it when I get home

Backing up and flashing now... I wonder when they'll post an official thread on CM9 on the individual carrier gs3 forums w/ changelogs and such.
In the meantime... GOGOGO
I have downloaded the file twice and both times get an error trying to flash it. I'll wait to see if anyone else has any luck, but I'm beginning to think the download is corrupt.
I got an error also. Have u tired flashing with twrp2. I was gonna try that but I'm in bed

Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk 2
I haven't tried twrp2 and don't know that I will. That's three confirmed errors on the download, so I'm going to assume the uploaded file is bad. It did seem small to me (146 megs) considering the other roms are over 400 mb (I think).

BlackDino, did you get it to flash?
so I'm considering it but I don't want to mess it up! Is it easy? Is it hard? Does it get much faster than stock 4.2?also does it improve network speeds I drop signal every now and then and I wanna flash a different radio... I've been routing for years but I just lost an s2 due to a sticky power button :/.. Is that a common issue with the galaxy nexus also?

Pretty much, although I would recommend updating your recovery to the latest CWM (6.0.2.3) or TWRP (dunno what version that's on at the mo) - especially if you wanna use 4.2.x

I have an auntie that has a T-Mo Galaxy S2 and when trying to upgrade it says that there is no new upgrade even tho that it is on froyo. Trying to connect it to kies, the program doesn't recognize it. She took it to the T-Mo store and they said that it was a bug in some of the S2's and were unable to do anything. My question now, is it safe to install cwm and flash a jelly bean rom even tho that this bug is present??? Thanks in advance
Sorry for the double post but I'm not sure if it's worth noting, but the front camera is on the right side of the phone as opposed to the left (looking at pictures from the web). Not sure if this is substantial or anything just a quick note.

You have to upgrade through kies software on your PC if you're on stock Gingerbread.

The phone is not on gingerbread it is on FROYO. When trying to connect to kies it would not recognize the phone after trying multiple troubleshooting techniques.

Can you post some information about the phone from the settings? Like build number, phone model, etc.? Because the Galaxy S2 never had froyo, so I'm very curious to see what your settings are like.

I would but I am not in possession of the phone right now. But as I said before even t-mobile workers were unable to upgrade. This is why I am looking into if its safe to flash a custom room or even stock jellybean.

Try and take some screenshots or something. Because even the first Galaxy S2 (the I9100) was released with Gingerbread, not Froyo, so this is stumping me right now.

Does it look like that? That's the Galaxy S 4G. Its like a slight revision to the OG Galaxy S. It doesn't have official CM Builds iirc though.
If it doesn't look like that, then she doesn't have a Galaxy S device, just some random Samsung phone

Can be fixed by a simple EFS restore I believe. Did you not do a backup of it in the first place?
Everything I've read had involved going back to stock to get it to reset. I didn't even think GPS had anything to do with efs I thought that was just the imei and other info related to it. Plus this is still simpler doesn't even need a pc or any other apps just access to the stock dialer and a minute or two.

That sounds more like a hardware issue. My problem was that it would do nothing when the GPS was on in maps or anything else. No icon no nothing. After doing this it went back to normal.
