Hello, i've flashed my SGS2 to MIUI 1.11.11 via clockworkmod and now it's been stuck at the xiaomi.com bootscreen, just looping the animation over and over. This goes on for more than 10mins nothing is happening. Is this normal? Do i have to wait longer or is it spoilt? If its spoilt, is there a way to fix this?

Note: I'd flashed the kernel to siyah 2.1 final prior to this.

not sure if miui works with siyah kernel.

boot into cwm, wipe your dalvik cache then go into mounts and storage. wipe data, wipe cache, wipe SYSTEM and flash MIUI again.

bootloops are usually caused by corrupted or incompatible system files and data files so just wipe system as well then flash again.

shouldn't have any issues after that.

Wipe data means all my apps and msgs will be gone?

yes. you should have done a titanium backup before that?

if not wipe system + cache + dalvik then flash the rom. then fix permissions.

wiping data will be your last resort.

Ive done a titanium backup but i dont have sdcard. everything is in internal storage. should i transfer out all the titanium backuped files to pc first before wiping everything? (and the titanium backup backedup all the services including samsung ones, not just apps. is it possible to only install apps as opposed to services? i dont know which services are impt cause there are tons of them and they have cryptic names)

wipe data doesn't wipe what is it in your sd card. just don't wipe your sd card.

anyway don't restore system or services. just restore APPS only.

and why did you backed up EVERYTHING?!
