I've been having fun installing Android x86 onto my Asus notebook ;)
Runs really well actually!

Hi @Pureferret
@LiamW All else would be a shame (x86 vs. ARM cpu power) :-)

@ce4 Yo! I'm all backed up
Do I want to just flash the CM image on?
 
ce4
ce4
Hi!
If you desire so :-)
@ce4 <= You need those 3 things on your sdcard partition
From then on it's rather easy: oldwiki.cyanogenmod.org/wiki/…
Method via Recovery, starting at "3."
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
@ce4 AHHH
 
ce4
ce4
?
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
got you
I was going to flash the image on via Heimdal
 
ce4
ce4
Nope, don't
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
8:22 PM
good thing I didn't
Well I can't connect to my phone in Linux
:(
 
ce4
ce4
Just load those 3 .zip's, then boot to CWM, then 'install .zip from sdcard'
You don't have to, just use your phone to load those 3 files
(I assume you have Wifi)
Gapps, are around 90, cm is 150megs, and the radio is <5megs or so
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
@ce4 Genius
 
ce4
ce4
:-)
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
Hmm perhaps I shouldn't have wiped it then....
As it's not booting anymore
 
ce4
ce4
You can always use an SDcard to load the .zip's
(just for the information)
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
8:30 PM
@ce4 I can't get the SD card on to my PC
going to reflash with the CSM 5.5, put the files on the SD then try again
 
ce4
ce4
I meant, insert a real micro-sd card into your S2
yep, you can try that
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
@ce4 I don't have a spare
 
ce4
ce4
What's left, is to try to either get it booting the real android again or get adb working again
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
Uh it's just still loading
hung on the glowing S
 
ce4
ce4
How did you wipe it, btw?
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
8:39 PM
@ce4 CWM
 
ce4
ce4
ok
Try the latest kernel maybe
It's in the nightlies zip (as "boot.img") get.cm/?device=i9100
flash via heimdall
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
gortcha
 
ce4
ce4
BTW: adb still not working?
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
@ce4 nope
Ehh, it won't turn on now
 
ce4
ce4
some more info? what did you do?
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
8:48 PM
flashed on the boot.img with heimdall, and it restarted to a black screen
won't turn on
 
ce4
ce4
then reflash the 5.5 cwm?
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
@ce4 I can try that again I guess
 
ce4
ce4
yeah, flash mode is independent of this
(if it's not completele misflashed, but even then there are options left)
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
@ce4 Just reflashed with CWM
 
ce4
ce4
ok, can you boot to recovery again? Does adb connect?
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
8:59 PM
just booted into recovery mode
no, adb does not connect
oops I flashed the wrong one
 
ce4
ce4
ok
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
just put 5. 5 on, instead of 5. 0
 
ce4
ce4
yeah
This post has a CWM 6
But first try the 5.5
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
it has a bar saying 'Installing Applications'
weird...
@ce4 Ok I'm in
 
ce4
ce4
via adb?
@Pureferret ^^
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
9:11 PM
no no, cyanogen is ok
I think
 
ce4
ce4
ah, you're in to 'install CM'
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
hang on
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
9:33 PM
where do the files need to be?
 
ce4
ce4
adb ok?
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
nope
but I'm into android proper and I've downloaded them
 
ce4
ce4
ah
so they're all in /sdcard/Downloads or so
that's ok
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
awesome
 
ce4
ce4
what files did you download?
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
9:35 PM
into recovery mode then?
 
ce4
ce4
Not yet
You have all of these:
cm-10.1-20130113-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip
Modem_XXLS6-CWM.zip
gapps-jb-20121212...zip
If so, reboot to recovery
Then you can 'install zip from sdcard' in that order: cm, gapps, modem
then wipe
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
it's saying no files found
 
ce4
ce4
install zip from internal sdcard
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
I can only find the gap one
 
ce4
ce4
it's "install zip from sdcard" => "install zip from internal sdcard"
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
9:43 PM
@ce4 that's what I've done, but it only brings up three files and only one of them is correct
I'm going to boot back into android proper and make sure I downloaded them
 
ce4
ce4
yep
You need around 260MB space for all
Maybe that's been the reason
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
@ce4 I think I got them
 
ce4
ce4
At least cm-10.1-20130113-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip is necessary
If you're super paranoid, you can check the md5sums of the .zip files for their integrity
And compare them to the given md5's on the respective web sites
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
10:08 PM
@ce4 Doing that step now
 
ce4
ce4
cool
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
now I do 'wipe data/factory reset' ?
@ce4 ?
 
ce4
ce4
@Pureferret: Sure
Wait, all .zip's did install ?
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
@ce4 yes
 
ce4
ce4
All 3, i.e. cm, gapps, modem
fine
Let's hope for the best then :-)
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
10:24 PM
Well it has the right logo
 
ce4
ce4
Good! The 1st boot takes some extra time
 
Pureferret
Pureferret
yeah!
Not a fan of the 'theme'
will need to fix that
 
ce4
ce4
Finally! Yeah, you're free to do whatever you like now
here's some inspiration
Oh, and btw: The theme needs some getting-used-to if you come from touchwiz, right
I meant, the UI (not theme). Try it a little, it has some nice features.
