LP7:

WiFi issue still there.

System a little faster (honously I did wipe of Dalvik cache).

All other things seems to be ok..
[Galaxy S II General] mgmate:
I really do not understand how the Wifi issue could be still there. I installed LPS factory reset and have to go back to LP3 because of this.

Anybody knows any solution for the Wifi issue? it seems a lot of people already installed LPS and XWLP7 without that issue...

do I miss something to be done apart of factory reset?

Regards,

Manuel.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Would love to see a fix for the wifi issue...quite annoying.

Anyone else noticed that that just happens if using the switch in the pull down menue from notification bar? Also I think it only happens when a communication is rigth ongoing on 3G while switching wifi on?
[Galaxy S II General] mbevc1:
Never turning it on/off that way...but wifi work like a charm on xwlp4 for me. So nothing drastic new on xwlp7? seems a lot of additional bloatware in original CSC ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Shadamehr:
Quick advice please folks...

If I wanted to flash LP7 over my existing LP3 FW, how would I go about doing this so that it works ok with my existing T-Mobile UK sim?

Currently, my LP3 FW is the special unbranded O2 version that Intratech created.

I didn't need any special CSC pack for it to work out of the box on my T-Mobile UK sim.

So if I flashed the LP7 build onto my phone using Odin, what else would I need to do?

Would I need to also flash a custom CSC package, and if so, which one, and where from?

Thanks in advance guys...
[Galaxy S II General] BlueScreenJunky:
So just to make sure I got things right, if I want to update and get root I need to :

-Flash the whole XWKE1 ROM with Odin.

-Flash the Insecure XWKDD_insecure Kernel.

-Root.

-Flash the extracted XWKE1 Kernel.

Right ?
[Galaxy S II General] AMoosa:
Is there a chagelog for this update? Why should I upgrade from KDD unless there is a benefit (apart from having the latest rom).
[Galaxy S II General] cmd512:
Updated perfectly, thank you sir!
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Ok, repackaged only Kernel and uploaded it. Link and password in first post.
[Galaxy S II General] 101matt101:
As far as I can tell it's just bug fixes and being able to say you have the latest ROM, I have an O2 PAYG S2 and there doesn't seem to be any visible differences between the old ROM and this new one. :)

[Galaxy S II General] LBTaylor1984:
can someone explain to me what the Kernel does?

i've updated the rom, and rooted via superio-2, but what benefit does putting the original Kernel back achieve?
[Galaxy S II General] enkkei:
Sorry for being a "moron")) but why there's no need to put the .pit file??? On the samfirmware.com flashguide i've read that the .pit file is necessary...
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Because you only need it if you screw up your partition table or if the firmware specifically requires it because of a change in the partition table layout. Not dissing Samfirmware or anything but I wouldn't be taking too much technical advice from their website.

Intratech i hope u can Help me plz8

If I create a new contact (first name, last name, phone num and email addy) and save it to phone. Then export it to SIM. Then delete it from phone. Then import it from SIM....

The contact's email address has disappeared.

What's happening here?

I want to be able to export/save my contacts to my SIM for safe-keeping but not if I am going to lose important data such as somebody's email address.

If I import contacts I previously saved to SIM (saved to SIM using my old Galaxy S) then these contacts DO DISPLAY their email addresses.And do nt want to save to Google Account ,only Sim :(
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Yes :)

:eek:

Haven't come across this. The KIES backup and restore for contacts works, I've done it after a hard reset and my contact information is intact.

I'll go check this to see if I can replicate the issue.

yes mine too,never seen a mobile phone that wont let save the contacts on Sim,,,Export/Import never work :(

I have used the stock XWKE1 kernel, but i've found some function has gone from my original.

So i would like to see is there any way for me to get the orignal ZSKE1 kernel form my another non-rooted sg2?
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
A thought Intratech would it be easier for you and others to spin off the Original branded roms into a separate post with FAQ for users to download themselves ..

Thanks for all your hard work anyway .

[Galaxy S II General] PJL:
What happens if I change CSC with the branded firmware installed on the phone?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Yes, if you flash the O2 firmware it will be like factory default after a hard reset.

It's the same kernel. What functions are missing?

Good Idea. Cheers

Your device will reset and use the new CSC.

@ intratech

Know your a busy guy but there have been a few request to create a back up brand rom for the Australia carrier.

It's in the other thread in Q&A's, whenever you free mate.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
I've check everytime I see the request unfulfilled, including this minute, and it seems as if Optus, like 3 AT, have not authorised the release of the firmware as it is not available on FUS. :(
[Galaxy S II General] xspyda:
Thanks intratech ...

Can you (or anyone else) offer any suggestion for this problem I how have?

After flashing the rooted kernel in order to run the SIM unlock tool on the SGSII I now see the following when booting into 'download mode' :

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: YES (1 counts)

Is there a way I can reset this as it's hardly good for warranty purposes? Reluctant to flash anything else as the count is just going to keep climbing!

Thanks for any advice ...
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Yes, get a USB jig. You can buy then for £2.50 on ebay. Just insert it into the usb post when then phone is off and it resets the count. :)
[Galaxy S II General] xspyda:
Great stuff, thanks :-)
[Galaxy S II General] Krizp0:
Yeah that method is awesome! But do you know any other method to reboot phone after using the jig than to pull the battery while in download mode? Mainly because I don't want to open the back cover too often...
[Galaxy S II General] xspyda:
Hold down the power for a good few secs? Should have same effect?
[Galaxy S II General] Krizp0:
Tried it but doesn't seem to work.
[Galaxy S II General] kcchik:
HI Intratech

Really thanks for your reply..

After I've flashed with XWKE1, when I plugged the USB, I'll have to open the Kies on my PC to show me the SDCARD content, but before that, I can samply have it connected as a USB drive on my computer...
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
When I connect mine I can browse both sdcards normally on my PC without KIES. Don't know why yours doesn't work.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Yes, just press and hold the power button down and eventually it will turn off. It just takes a little longer than normal.
[Galaxy S II General] Slimboball:
It will work no problem. I'm on T Mobile UK & all's fine here. :) No need to flash another CSC.

[Galaxy S II General] Shadamehr:
So just download the LP7 link from page 1, flash via ODIN, and all is good?

No wipe at all needed if I'm on LP3 and likely a different CSC...?

[Galaxy S II General] pepxl:
im having a problem

i flashed LPS the other day but didnt like ICS, i reverted back to LA4 with CWM but google play app and website thinks im still on ICS so i get updates for things like Flash, Gmail, Talkback and YT but then get errors saying a need a newer SDK version.

Also apps i have installed some say incompatible because Play thinks im still using ICS but infact on Gingerbread.

Really confused as to why this is happening.
[Galaxy S II General] pawmadsen:
Did you clear cache in cwm and dalvik too?
[Galaxy S II General] pepxl:
yep done both several times, only thing i could try next is a new flash via odin or factory reset but that involves leg work i wish to avoid unless i just give in lol
[Galaxy S II General] mgmate:
I think the only way is doing factory reset and wipping dalvik and then restoring CWM backup from recovery.

I did not have any issue doing it that way!

Any issue with XEN XWLP7 and Wifi or not installing Swype if CSC it is not XEN?

For LP3 version I did not have SWYPE as I have XEU CSC... :mad:

Regards,
[Galaxy S II General] Shadamehr:
Indeed, wipe proved not necessary, though it did hang on the animated Galaxy S logo for twenty minutes plus, until i forced a restart.

Then all was there ok.

However, a different big problem: LP7 didn't get me through a single 8 hour shift at work, battery wise...

Will try a full charge tonight and see again tomorrow, but my usage pattern at work is always minimal, and always very even and equal from one shift to the next, and it normally sees out a whole day fine, with around 20% left when I finish.

So I hope it was just a one off...
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
Hmm ... I just flashed XWLP7 (XEN) with the OXALPQ CSC.

As I was on this CSC before (MultiCSC, and I selected XEU after flashing this for the first time), I am still on XEU.

If your model isn't GT-I9100 (I mean it: GT-I9100!), don't try to flash any fw showed in this thread, unless you know what you are doing (e.g. I9100T).

---------- Post added at 01:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 AM ----------

Seems Mobile Odin Pro's EverRoot fails on some firmware versions. I myself had prob with it when flashing XEU's Value Pack in GT-I9000. Anyways, since you have root access, you can always fix those things it has left behind. ;) BTW, as I said, it's not the case when I speak of GT-I9000, unfortunately... lost root and had to start from scratch!!! :(
[Galaxy S II General] ziggyboy:
Most people flash the ROM package first, set up their phones, then flash CF-Root afterwards.

[Galaxy S II General] krishca:
Rooting

Intra,

Can you tell us how to create a tar ball file? Chain fire did not allow you to pack his kernels when you asked him around say 6 months back.

But can we take the zimage file out of your tarball and replace with chain fire's Kernel for that particular ROM and repack the tar so that we can flash at one go and get root?

Will the yellow triangle come if we do it with this way?

Can yo throw some light on this area?
[Galaxy S II General] jim-bo:
Simply open the tarball in an app that supports them, such as 7zip or IzArc, and replace the zImage file in the firmware with the zImage file from the kernel tarball.

You WILL get a yellow triangle, though. That's because the kernel is not official Samsung, nothing to do with it being flashed separately.

Alternatively, use Mobile Odin instead of Odin, and select the firmware tarball first, then the kernel tarball, and it will use the kernel one instead, do it in a single flash, and not give you the triangle or the increased counter (assuming that you already don't have the triangle).
[Galaxy S II General] williamsean:
Hi Guys,

I flashed the XWLP7 (XEN) yesterday, it works fine, smoother than LP3. But, as I was texting someone I notest that I have a QWERTZ (instat of QWERTY) keyboard.

How can I solve this?

LP7:

after 3 days normal usage for me..

battery stands about 4 hours longer (almost 16 hours) - I am heavy user...

my humble opinion:

best ICS ROM till now.

XWLP7
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
Not for me.

On my phone (in first battery cycle), XWLP7 (the XEN one) is not smoother than XWLP3 (or XXLP4), and the battery life is worse.

Have a look here:

Results for Siyah / SpeedMod / N.E.A.K. / stock kernels

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.

Here are my current results:

Benchmarks

Battery stats

Maybe I have to do a second battery cycle to verify my results.
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
For more information you should have a look at Chainfire's CF-Root thread.

And for getting rid of the yellow triangle: If you are on ICS, just install TriangleAway app (also from Chainfire) and start this app to remove the yellow triangle and reset the binary counter.

---------- Post added at 09:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 PM ----------

I am not quite sure if I have understood you correctly.

Neither the XWLP7 for SER (Russia) nor the XWLP7 for XEN (Netherlands) has a German CSC.

But why do you need a German CSC?

Both ROM version are "XW" and contain the German language.

You can use a MultiCSC and select DBT (Germany) if you want.

I just put the XWLP7 ROM file (the XEN one) into PDA section and the last MultiCSC I already had (XXLPQ) into CSC section of Odin.

Then I flashed both at once to my phone.

So my CSC (I have choosen XEU for UK/General Europe) was not changed.

I recommend to use an ICS CSC, and the "Open" German ICS is still not released for the SGS2.

(Only T-Mobile Germany is officially released for our phone.)

---------- Post added at 09:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 PM ----------

Depends on what you want to "set up".

Most things that I want to change/customize can only be done with root access.

So, I have to root my phone first before being able to change these settings.

I you mean things like apps, widgets, homescreens, OS settings via Settings menu, then you can change these settings before rooting the phone.

But if you want to root your phone anyway, you can also root directly after flashing the ROM and make all changes afterwards.
