Sorry which one? the stock one? or the O2 one?

or am i already on it? :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Well that was fast.. Thanks for the help guys, I'm hoping for better stand by power usage.
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
Well this is what I knew, I wanted to know why the member I quoted was giving that information to another user.

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II General] jenskristian:
Just flashed KH4. Most notable change is the system font. Also it seems faster than KH3. Worth the update.
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
It definitely doesn't increase the custom binary counter. Mine is still NO :D
[Galaxy S II General] radiobicho:
What about XWKI1 or XXKI1? Any news?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
I'm pretty certain I answered that in reply to your PM.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Maybe a misunderstanding?
[Galaxy S II General] mbevc1:
Canynbody confirm this KH4 has Slovenian keyboard and Slovenian Swype? Thanks. Keep up the good work.

If it has...looks like a worth trying.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
It has both Slovencina and Slovenscina language support.
[Galaxy S II General] tonymy01:
So far, so good with kh4. it fixes the email end of line word wrapping issue finally, and the email Swype editing which was impossible when using backspace before (where the word you were trying to erase would come back again).

The font is very nice but a but chunky for my liking, so using the font app the phone installs for you to customise, using titillium light002 ttf.
[Galaxy S II General] Krizp0:
Good news to the Norwegian guys!

XWKH4 brings norwegian language in GApps :cool:
[Galaxy S II General] ParthG:
Oh haha I thought he knew when Samsung will release it. Nevermind :o

KH4 still with no video on Talk :(

KH4 still has no video on Google Talk... can't imagine why they removed it.

BTW, tried the Talk Installer: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.brainwashstudio.talkinstaller

but it gives error and doesn't work for both: backup nor install (rooted and busybox ok)

@Intratech

What is latest SW for Balkan region Serbia ?
[Galaxy S II General] adancau:
Just noticed KH4 has the percent battery charge on lockscreen when plugged in. Finally :)
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
KH3 had this as well, great feature IMO.
[Galaxy S II General] hstruik:
Intra@tech, why did you not package with the OXAKH3 CSC ? Any particular reason ?
[Galaxy S II General] snowfallen:
Any change of the color banding issue in KH4?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
No real reason, I just uploaded the packaged I used on my device.:)
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
What's the best CSC to use for Bell Canada? TIA
[Galaxy S II General] _Sale_:
Telenor-KF3
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
I'd guess the Bell/Virgin Canada one would be best.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Officially it's XWKF3.. multiCSC package.
[Galaxy S II General] ObamaGoesPostal:
Flashed the Nordic version (NEE) and updated to KE7, I don't seem to have åäö on the Samsung Keyboard - but I have on Swype. Is this Samsungs fault, or is it my fault?

EDIT: When I'm in settings for the Samsung Keyboard I can choose swedish language - but as said I still don't have the åäö's.

If I've flashed the wrong one, which should I flash? I bought the phone unlocked (in Sweden), but I remember it having a swedish keyboard.
[Galaxy S II General] gtda:
hi intratech, is there a full wipe version of kh4

i like everything being wiped so i can start fresh

ive checked samfirmware and they have nothing

also from quickly browsing this thread is kh4 still using parts of kh3 modem etc

or am i miss reading

cheers
[Galaxy S II General] mbevc1:
In keyboards or phone language? Thanks for info. will try :)
[Galaxy S II General] firefds:
Changes I noticed in KH4:

New Hebrew fonts added with bold support.

If I add he_IL locale in framework-res.apk the locale now shows "עברית" instead of "Hebrew".

If I add iw_IL I can see עברית in locale menu, but if i select it most of the strings do not get changed.

In framework.jar they added a file under com\samsung\text\ if i'm not mistaken that is called "semitic.smali" that finds out if you are writing in a RTL language.

Samsung apps now works with no need to fix it manually.

VideoEditor.apk still now showing in app drawer, but if you sign it and stick it back in it works.
[Galaxy S II General] dman2011:
Which CSC?

Hi,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 which is on contract with O2 in the UK (NOT Pay as You GO).

I replace the firmware from the O2 branded KE1 to XXKH3.

However, after installing KH3, the CSC changed to "KOR".

What should I set the CSC to (as the original CSC is not an option in the list) ?

Thanks,

Darren
[Galaxy S II General] Brendo:
as does kg6...
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
After flashing the firmware go into recovery and do a factory reset. Yes, it's using parts from other firmware, this is how I packaged it and that's why it's in the Frankenstein section.

Both

That's correct, the CSC package doesn't have O2 CSC so it defaulted to KOR. You can manually change it to XEU following instruction on the first page on how to switch CSC.
[Galaxy S II General] andresalonika:
Hi intra im confused or being newbie but i would appreciate it if you can help me. Im in Greece on COSMOTE carrier and im currently using stock KF3 with XEUKD1 csc. My problem is that i reverted back to stock firmware because i couldnt send a full sms (160 letters) in Greek language with other firmwares also using XEUKD1 csc. It would say my message would be sent corrupted.. So i went back to stock KF3 and i can send full sms with greek capital letters properly...i dont understand, shouldnt be XEUKD1 csc the same with other XEUKD1 csc when used with other firmwares?? I really wanna use the latest firmwares but this messaging issue bothers me a lot.. Thanks a lot!!
[Galaxy S II General] sleeco:
Hi, I have loaded KH4 via odin five times to my sgs2 and each time (PASS) it reboots I immediatly get a force close on phone, i then reload KH3 with no problems at all, am i missing something.

[Galaxy S II General] dman2011:
KH3 vs KH4

Hi,

Can anyone tell me from experience the differences between KH3 and KH4?

Any significant improvements/benefits in KH4?

Thanks,

Darren
[Galaxy S II General] rustyx3:
Have you tried configuring the SMS app to send messages in Auto mode? (Messaging->Settings->Input mode->Automatic)
[Galaxy S II General] andresalonika:
Yes when i chose Automatic i see above the SEND button that i can type 160 characters but as soon as i type 2-3 (Greek) letters the counter drops to 40 or 60 if i remember well...But still this is not even half of a full SMS.. However the message will not be corrupted..
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
CSC has nothing to do with language support, it's hardcoded into the firmware.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
You may need to clear the data in manage applications for whatever application is FC'ing or do a factory reset after flashing XWKH4. I haven't had any FC'ing with it.
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
There are some improvements/benefits. New font, and some little stuff. Try it out and you will be wiser
[Galaxy S II General] andresalonika:
Oh now i see!! Thanks a lot buddy!!
[Galaxy S II General] masi0:
any ideas how to root KH4?
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
You can use a insecure kernel and then root
[Galaxy S II General] masi0:
not really working - superoneclock app hangs on step6 : ShellCommand
[Galaxy S II General] MeX_DK:
Infratech,

Having the KH3 full rom can I simply flash the main tar for KH4 and retain both modem and CSC from the KH3?.

I am aware I need to flash an insecure Kernel to root. So I would need to flash that one again :P
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
I always use version 1.9.5. 2.1.1 indeed does not work.
[Galaxy S II General] rustyx3:
The font in XWKH4 indeed looks different. It is definitely brighter/wider but to me doesn't look as neat (IMHO).

See attached comparison of XWKF3 and XWKH4.
[Galaxy S II General] ObamaGoesPostal:
So you dont know, Intratech?
[Galaxy S II General] gtda:
thanks mate, so does that mean it doesn't have its own kh4 modem and csc, or ur just happier with kh3. I've just added all the mods I like to kh3 so I'll probly just wait till they make these mods for kh4. sounds like its definitely an improvement.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Why don't use user CF-Root KH3 kernel?

I believe people have reported that it works on both KH2 and KH4.

EDIT: nevermind, KH4 CF-Root has just been posted by Chainfire.

Transmitted from a Galaxy far far away via XDA telepathy.
[Galaxy S II General] MeX_DK:
Please make a release just with KH4, without modem and CSC. Unless I can merely add your tar to the PDA bit, and then add my own choise of CSC to the CSC tap which will overwrite whatever CSC is in your package even before its installed.
[Galaxy S II General] Остап:
But GTalk Video Support still not working :cool:
[Galaxy S II General] timberwolf60:
Used S2 root for rooting.
[Galaxy S II General] hallydamaster:
You should just flash the latest XWKH4 it has all the nordic languages and it works very well.
[Galaxy S II General] gspears:
Man your eyes must be better than mine. All I notice is a slightly brighter font on the right.

Or my laptop resolution isn't good enough.

Or my glasses are dirty:)
[Galaxy S II General] andresalonika:
Any other opinions / reviews about KH4 ? Is it worth updating?
[Galaxy S II General] ObamaGoesPostal:
Yeah, I know. But I'd like to have automatic updates... But I guess it's my only choice, thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] rey031:
Oohh, I like this. The new font (thicker) is more readable for me especially on SGS2's very contrasty display.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Try the Nordic XWKF3 firmware.
[Galaxy S II General] account2002:
After upgrading from KH3 to KH4 I also have FC. Something is not right in KH4 or KH3 (in my setup), because after flashing KH4 I have continous FC on com.android.phone. After factory reset all is ok, but when I try to restore my setup either by CWM or TitaniumBackup FC's are back. And on HK3 everything is ok,with o without full wipe, regardless of restore method.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
All I got was the PDA section of the firmware and I found, for me, that the KH3 modem worked best with this so that's what I packaged it with.

---------- Post added at 11:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 PM ----------

If you're restoring system applications and data then the FC's will keep happening, same if you're restoring a CWM image. Think about it, it makes perfect sense.

---------- Post added at 11:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:39 PM ----------

Ok, will do but I will not be supporting this release with people mixing and matching combinations I haven't tested.

---------- Post added at 11:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 PM ----------

Exactly. That's the version I use.:)

---------- Post added at 11:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 PM ----------

If this is the case then try the Nordic XWKF3

---------- Post added at 11:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 PM ----------

If you're asking me, Intratech, then I will upload the PDA of XWKH4 later and you can flash any combination you like but you'll be on your own if you mess it up.
[Galaxy S II General] account2002:
OK. I understand it. But I haven't been restoring full backup or system data or system apps, just user data and apps, by choosing CWM advance restore and selecting just data image. Am I wrong? Thank you for all your work. I'm newbe so every help is most welcome.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Ok, so one of the apps is FC'ing then? Which app is it? If you know then simply go into manage applications > All and find the app, force close it and then clear the data. That should stop the FC'ing. Don't restore data from that app from KH3 backup. Let us know if this works.
[Galaxy S II General] account2002:
As I mentioned before, com.android.phone does FCs. Because it is system app I'm a little confused about where to seek for it's data. And because I haven't restored it from backup maybe there is something wrong with user data used by phone app. But never mind. I'll wait for next firmware and I'll check then for FCs. If they will still be there, then I'll do full wipe and install everything from scratch. Once again thank you.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Settings > Applications > Manage applications > All tab > Dialler

Tap on dialler then on that screen tap force close then clear data.
[Galaxy S II General] MeX_DK:
Intratech,

At the moment I can confirm that Phone: KH4, Modem: KH3 and CSC: KF1 works as thats the setup I am running right now :)
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
LoL, just as I finish uploading the PDA.

PDA XWKH4: http://www.multiupload.com/7MMVP1NKRJ
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
WTH! Why are people PMing me about what samfirmware says about XWKH4 firmware? You do realise that Samfirmware are not Samsung right? I don't care that it isn't listed at Samfirmware and I don't know why. If you want to listen to what they are saying then nobody is stopping you, it's a free world. I've never posted up any buggy/dodgy firmware release previously so why would I start now?

Nobody is forcing you to flash anything here, just use some common sense. :(:(
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
+1 flash or don't flash. The end.
[Galaxy S II General] account2002:
That didn't help. But reviewing adb logcat I've found that there is a problem with missing column "subsetcode". After some time on google I've found that there is database, responsible for fast dormancy settings, called "nwk_info.db" with table "nwkinfo" inside. That table was missing two columns. After altering table and adding those columns everything seems to be ok.

So if someone else has FCs on com.android.phone after moving from KH3 (my full setup: PDA KH3, Modem KH3, CSC KH3 XEO) to KH4 then

I think quickest solution he could try, without need to edit database, will be to do full backup, flash KH4 ROM, make full wipe, backup database "nwk_info.db" from

/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/nwk_info.db

do recovery and copy backed up "nwk_info.db" to its previous location.

Root is required, and after copying from non linux partiton remember to set group, owner and permitions:

cd /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases
chown radio nwk_info.db
chgrp radio nwk_info.db
chmod 660 nwk_info.db

Maybe there is even simpler way to overcome that FC issue. Backup "nwk_info.db", delete it, reboot and check if system have recreated file. My phone is now ok so I'm not going to check it.

At the moment I am on PDA: KH4, Modem: KH3 and CSC: KH3 (XEO) and it looks like everything works ok.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
^^I moved from XXKH3 directly to XWKH4 without any wipe and didn't have this issue at all. Anyway, since you only experience this when you restore your XXKH3 backup then I think it's not an issue with the firmware but thanks for posting that fix for anyone who might run into this issue. cheers.

edit: Also, wow! It's good to see that some people will still investigate issues for themselves. Good work.
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
+1 People, leave the man be! Just flash or do not flash!
[Galaxy S II General] zamana:
+2.

I just flashed the Intratech's package and it's fine. And no wipe at all, by the way.

If you're experiencing problems, the problem is you or is your phone.

Regards.
[Galaxy S II General] bungknees:
Thanks for your constant updates Intratech, Great work. Are you running KH4 at the moment? Is it a good release? Im on your KH3 right now and its great, Stock roms are just as good as custom roms, I personally think anyway. Just as quick.

Thanks again mate.
[Galaxy S II General] zamana:
KH4 seems a little bit faster thank KH3, with BlueTooth and WiFi Sharing freezed, and Ninphetamine 2.1.3.
[Galaxy S II General] bungknees:
I presume that KH4 is the same as other Frankenstein roms, no wipe? If not it no biggie, my phone has alot of excess **** on it at the moment so iot probably wouldnt hurt.
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
Yes, no wipe.
[Galaxy S II General] mguel:
FYI flashed KH4 from KG3 with no issues... no FC's at all... rooted with KH3 chainfire (since it wasn't available KH4 yet), then flashed stock kernel and no problems what so ever since then (only missing video on GTalk)

Thanks Intratech!
[Galaxy S II General] gspears:
I thought Chainfire DID have a KH4 root.

Just flashed KH4 with root and will see what it is like.
[Galaxy S II General] account2002:
I have never said that there is a firmware bug on KH4, but someone else also had FCs of com.android.phone process after upgrade, so in some special conditions problem exists. Because I was one of the affected so i've been trying to find the cause and some solution.

Thanks Intratech for your effort supplying us the newest stock ROMs.

Could someone with KH4 do me a small favour and check what files are in his

/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/

directory? I have few theories I want to check, about what could have caused "nwk_info.db" error leading to com.android.phone FCs on my SGS2.

hi guys... wht's the changelog of kh4?
[Galaxy S II General] andresalonika:
Theres no changelog.. Find out your self!!

Hi

may be its noob question,

I am on CheckROM (KH3) kernel, Can i flash just KH4 stock kernel on it?

If i do, does it unroot my phone?
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
In settings you can change it. And does that 5% change make it so unbearable?

[Galaxy S II General] gorko122:
As far as I know the answers are yes and yes.
[Galaxy S II General] joelteixeira:
Unfortunately, there is no official changelog for KH4 or any other Samsung release. Your option is check some pages back for users report. E.g:

Changes Andacau noticed:

- font

- the Power saving menu in settings is now better organized and is differentiating between system power saving and custom power saving

- software update icon seems to have changed a little

- new BBC iPlayer app

- new Suggests link (to download an app from Samsung)

- percent battery charge on lockscreen when charging

hey, just wanted to confirm that i am another user with kh4 working properly no crashes reboot or force closes till now. Thanks Intratech.
[Galaxy S II General] technotika:
Also ok here too! after flashing with the frankenstein zip the first install process made a little error about csc but it flashed off and all is ok

KH4 seems to be working fine. Just 2 days though. No issues till now.
[Galaxy S II General] :
can i use the kh4 kernel in the kh3 firmware ?
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
Sure, you can.
[Galaxy S II General] donalgodon:
Two minor questions:

If I'm coming from KH3 which I got here, will it change my identifier and screw up my Market apps?

If I don't do a reset/wipe data, will I be likely to encounter issues if I'm coming from KH3?
[Galaxy S II General] tygoger:
Not likely, should all be good
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Greg:
First, thanks for you great work! I have a 1 question(may be it`s a noob one): I`m using:PDA xxkh3, PHONE xxkh3, CSC KH3 and I have very poor signal, almost time is EDGE and GPRS. Which official rom I have to install or CSC to have better signal? I`m on vodafone UK, Rev 2.6. Any help and suggestions will be much appreciated!
[Galaxy S II General] rogconnect:
I have the unlocked International	SGS2. I flashed from KH3 and unwipe.

KH4 seem to fix my GPS problems. Now it locks within a few seconds.

I rooted with Chainfire's CF-Root and did a backup thru CWM. After the backup was done , I flashed the stock kernel to removed the boot up Triangle. And now the CWM back up does not seem to work anymore...anyone got any ideas?

But, everything seem to run fine.
[Galaxy S II General] jr866gooner:
Is there any form of upgrade to this?

I guess to avoid voiding my warranty ill need to wait for official?.. Don't want to have to root!

Id like to keep stock but hopefully solve voice echo problems. Could someone please advise?
[Galaxy S II General] rogconnect:
I also have the same ROM as you b4. I flashed to KH3 and now KH4. You don't have to root to flash the latest ROM.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Regarding the market... maybe but then you can just edit the build properties. I haven't encountered any market issues.

I didn't reset or wipe when I flashed from XXKH3 to XWKH4 and I have no issues. Someone reported that Phone kept fc'ing but they also posted a fix. I haven't experience this issue

Your signal would be affected by the modem. You can try flashing other modems from Pulsar's thread to see if any help. I'm assuming that the issue is not related to coverage in your area.

You're doing it wrong. Please follow Chainfire's instructions from his thread, after flashing the stock Kernel you need to reflash the CF-Root kernel using his app.

If you want to stick to official firmware intended for your device then XWKF3 is the most up to date one available.

You can in theory but no guarantee.
[Galaxy S II General] jr866gooner:
When needing to flash back to what I have right now ie carphone warehouse firmware would I just go into the recovery and factory reset? Or does flashing New firmware blow away the carphone warehouse stuff? Plus will things break on my phone going from KF3 to KH3?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
If you want to restore the device to factory state then you'll need to flash a stock firmware and then do a hard reset. This is the same if you want to get rid of any CPW stuff: flash a generic firmware and do a hard reset.

In theory upgrading from KF3 to KH4 shouldn't be an issue but I have done this so I cannot give any guarantee that it will be flawless.

[Galaxy S II General] mguel:
Yes, it IS available now and when I wrote the post, but it WASN'T available when I flashed KH4, that's why I wrote "it WASN'T available" and not "it ISN'T available".

But really it doesn't matter that much which insecure kernel you use. Intratech has stated that he has used the same kernel for all rooting of posterior firmwares.
