Both ROM both are smooth like butter but xwlp4 came with single csc: i9100luxlp1 and the CSC for xxlps was i9100oxalps which was a multi csc contain the fellowing csc code: (XEU, XEO, XEF, KOR, ITV, DBT, CPW). Both was rooted with cf root lps during my testing and flashing by mobile Odin pro.

I'm glad it helped...

I thought the same and moved downloaded notifications, alamars and ringtones to internal memory, but still had the same issue.

Maybe moving all my media to internal... but I can't... between mp3 files, vids and photos I have way more than 16 gb, that's why I use a 32 gb sd card... and what would be the idea of having an external card then if buggy media scan needs media to be on internal memory only :(

Flashed a couple of minutes ago LPS (doing the "just updated" CWM backup right now), hope it fixes media scanner (alghough after first boot it took a couple of minutes with android.process.media using ~50% CPU heating the phone up... which is the pitiful behaviour it have on every ICS oficial rom I've flashed (after every reboot, every time I take the USB cable from computer even I don't "connect storage to PC", and every time I add new media)

At least on the couple of reboot I haven't lost custom sounds yet (alghough I experienced the issue only after adding new media)

hi guys it seems im stuck on boot logo while flashing from Cm9 to stock lp7.

what i did was i had cm9 build then on that i flashed jpkj2 kernel through odin (i dont know why) so i go a boot loop.

so then i flashed stock lp7 without wiping cache or dalvik to get to stock. and now i am stuck on S logo which keeps shining.

what shud i do? any kernel with cwm recovery? i do have backups but i dont have cwm recovery.

help please. will stock recovery help any way?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
You do a factory reset from recovery.

Just press the 3 buttons till it goto recovery mode and done a factory reset, Else put your phone in download mode and try to flash the ROM again.

Next time used mobile Odin pro for flashing the firmware. You will have a workable cwm recovery and your phone remained rooted after completed the flashing as many people are doing now.

Galaxy S2 Video Problem

Hi,

I have this strange issue with ICS on the Galaxy S2.

When video recording is set for 1920x1080, audio seems to be not recording well as there are moments of silence. When I lower the resolution, there is no problem.

Anyone notice this?

Thanks

Found the problem, it was actually by video player decoder set to Software decoding, the recording was ok.

[Galaxy S II General] SirRomie:
The wi-fi problem is a software issue. No fixes yet.

Who else thinks Samsung really dropped the ball on their ICS update? It made my S2 so inconsistent in comparison to GB. No re-sizable stock widgets option (the TW widgets don't count) and there is no streamlined folder system in TX either. On top of that the select text icon looks different across different applications and swiping through tabs is only present in some apps.

I can go on, but they really need to fix these and many more issues. I might just have to get the next Nexus instead of the SIII if things continue this way.

Noob alert!

Hi people, I am completely new to the android phone world. I have an Iconia Tab that I have flashed with the Leaked ICS and Thor's rom, so I'm not new to the flashing game. I have recently purchased a Galaxy s2 form Bell Mobility in canada and am dying to put ICS onto it. My only concern is that there is way too many options, and too many country codes for me to know exactly what will happen. Is there any specific rom that I should flash, or any thing I should avoid before starting? Will my carrier stuff still work properly after flashing?

The one I figured I'd need to use is:

XXLPS

XEO (Poland) Also has CSC (CPW, DBT, ITV, KOR, XEF, XEU)

My phone is currently:

PDA:I9100MUGKG2

PHONE:i9100MUGKG2

CSC:I9100MBMCKG

I will really appreciate any support or confirmation on firmware before I continue.

Thanks folks!
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
Same device, you're good to flash whichever ROM your heart desires.
[Galaxy S II General] karmakula:
this is beyond my imagination.

thanks
[Galaxy S II General] BCSC:
Thanks for the pointer, SaneinOne. After I've flashed the lps version, is it a simple matter of reverting back to the original Bell firmware, or is there a difference in the bootloader that may prevent this. I have all the Bell stock files (Firmware/csc/Kernel). Just curious in case something goes wrong or I decide to update to the bell version when it is released.

---------- Post added at 05:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:24 AM ----------

After I flash this will my phone be ready to go with all of the bell settings (APN and MMS, etc) or will i likely have to manually enter this somewhere. Once again, I appreciate the help from the experienced, and will do my best to be informative towards others in the future:o
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
Yep, you would wipe all cache/data and flash Bell stock. You can also create a Nandroid backup to revert back to stock prior to flashing. APN should be fine, I usually need to enter the port number (80) after flashing but that's about it.
[Galaxy S II General] BCSC:
Thanks again. Here we go....... I'll report back afterwards in case others want to read and follow the steps.

---------- Post added at 07:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 AM ----------

The entire process took about 10 minutes and everything works great. Thanks for the confidence boost SaneinOne. Downloaded the firmware xxlps (Poland), Flashed in PDA section of odin, Followed the instructions, and boom ICS. For anyone searching for answers later, This firmware is working with bell mobility. Exerything such as messaging and 4g work immediately without any kind of tinkering. Self serve works and all apps were still on the device after flash.

So I flash stock rom to remove triangle but lose root. Use a jig to reset the counter. If I reflash a CF kernel, I'll be back to square one, right? I'm confused. :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] Rinoko72:
If you've got a jig you just flash the cf-root you want...

On reboot you'll see the yellow triangle, then you turn your divice off and put the jig in, yellow triangle gone and your still rooted ;)

Good luck.!

Sent from my S2
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
There are several good descriptions of how to remove the yellow triangle.

If you are on ICS, just use TriangleAway app from Chainfire.

This is the easiest way for getting rid of the yellow triangle and resetting the binary counter.

If you are on GB, use on of the existing descriptions, such as from Chainfire's CF-Root thread.

Flash CF-Root kernel (by Odin). Flash stock kernel (by Odin). Flash zImage file of CF-Root kernel via CWM Manager app.

Or just use Mobile Odin (Pro) app from the Play store.

Or use a Jig (with old bootloader).

There are many ways of getting rid of the yellow triangle without losing root.

Good luck !

I have tested XXLPS and XWLP4.

Both are not significantly smoother than XWLP3, and both have a little bit worse battery life ... on my phone.

That's why I am back on XWLP3 now.

Here are my latest test results:

Everything is specific to my phone, my "normal" usage and my home location. Most values are exact results, but some are rounded. I usually have wifi, synch (three email accounts, calendar and news), Google Talk and Skype on.

For all custom kernels, I was running on ICS XWLP3 „Frankenstein“ ROM.

For stock kernels, I was running on the corresponding stock ROM.

Always using the Samsung's standard / stock 1650mAh battery.

For SiyahKernel and N.E.A.K., as there are many, many configurable settings, I have changed nothing - just default settings.

Hello,

can we expect a Frankenstein with OXA CSC instead of russian ? It would be great if u make the magic ... again.
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
Just put the ROM file XWLP7 into PDA and the CSC file you want into the CSC section of Odin and flash all at once to your phone.

So, IMO ... no real need for a Frankenstein version.
[Galaxy S II General] joaobarroso:
Sorry noob question, but can anyone explain me the importance of the CSC file?

I flash without care about the CSC file and the phone works normaly.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
That is exactly what I have experienced so far.

The CSC contains only some customizations for your region/carrier/provider, e.g. special apps (bloatware ;-) and/or additional (media) files (such as pictures, music or videos).

Kies uses the CSC information to decide, if your device has got the correct firmware for your region/carrier/provider or not.

If you do not use Kies to update your phone and you are not interested in some of the provider apps in a special CSC, it is really not important.

The language support is somewhere in the "main" ROM, the performance, most ui and wifi is determined by the kernel, the mobile connectivity is implemented in the modem ... that are IMO the important parts.

I am from Germany (DBT), but running on UK (XEU) CSC since my first Firmware update ... and I am missing nothing.
[Galaxy S II General] victorator:
The CSC includes languages and apns for specific countries/carriers.

If you flash a rom that already includes the language you need you will most likely gain nothing from flashing your CSC as OTA updates will not work on such combinations.

To put it short, CSC packages like OXALPS that contain multiple languages are useful for ROMs that only include asian languages (like Taiwan, Indonesia etc).

For any other rom that already includes your language it will make no real difference if you flash the CSC or not.

One other thing worth mentioning. When you flash a CSC package in Odin, you overwrite the hidden and cache partitions which MAY include bloatware in some cases, so that is another use for flashing CSCs. For firmwares like the newest XWLP7 there is no real need to flash CSCs.

edit:

XWLP7 Languages, CSC and Extra apps

[Galaxy S II General] XuperLugia:
Sorry if it's been replied already, but I cannot find anywhere CWM builds and since I'm the mantainer of around 4 or 5 GS2 it would make my life MUCH easier, any idea on this?
[Galaxy S II General] Tungstwenty:
I looked into your post with the apps and noticed something. When I installed ICS, I used the XWLP3 package fetched with CheckFus and in the CSC the OXXLPD multi (which contains TPH for Portugal unbranded). I noticed that the hidden partition is larger than in GB when it was pretty much empty, and installing ICS with wipe you can see that some apps are installed as user (e.g. Swype, etc.) to free up space in the /system partition. They surely come from the hidden partition which is then not mounted any more after the initial setup.

Swype is not listed in your post, though. Do you know why?

Also, if my phone is setup with XYZ csc and I later flash a package (with wipe) that does not contain that csc as an option, will it not fallback to the new default?

I mean, if not wiping, it might retain whatever CSC apps, settings, etc. that existed before, but now that in ICS the hidden partition contains important apps and its img file is contained in the CSC package, isn't it advisable to catch up to the latest CSC, possibly forcing yourself to other country's settings?
[Galaxy S II General] XSCounter:
