Amusingly I just watched my i9100 drop from 50% down to 42% in 14 mins. Mad.

/EDIT. I have had 1.3 installed since the day it was released. Its Tuesday now and the installation was several days ago. Yes, a wipe of the battery stats was done. And still no working 3G connection......
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rixsta:
Ive been saying this for over a year now .....

You battery will be worse after you've flashed it not matter what rom it is...needs around 3 days with discharging and charging , also go into CWM and wipe battery stats ..

Battery life will settle down ..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rixsta:
Im afraid there is a massive volume problem....

Coming from the SGS 1 with voodoo sound...it makes the SGS 2 sound like ****e...

Really it smashes the hell out of the SGS 2 ....

Ive heard voodoo cant be implemented ino the SGS 2 though ... :(

Best we have for now is poweramp....Im using my SGS 1 for music though..

Just wondering, what is the best way to extract the original ROM of a brand-new SGS2 to file, to later reflash it if you want to revert back to it? (Say, if you need to return the unit to the store due to any faults).

In practice, can the flashing of an alternative ROM be reverted to the outdated stock operator-branded one in all cases?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] monkeydrufy:
sorry guys,

I'm on lite'ning 1.3 but I have a big issue:

when I push the bluetooth headset button the phone reboot instead of open the app for vocal control (like cyberon)

any idea?

thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rixsta:
I wouldn't worry to much about that .....just go onto samfirmware.com ...they have all stock roms for the SGS 2 and for what country you are in....

Lets say your on stock KE2 ....Just find it in samfirmware.com and flash through odin .....

Done ......

Admittedly i have enormous headphones to power but i've just migrated from an iPhone4 and its amazingly quiet in comparison - on the q&a forum there's a few threads where people are complaining, and others saying its fine, perhaps there was a bad batch..?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] herrlado:
It seems not to be implemented on samsung, at least the stack trace i've analyzed says this. The error handling also crappt, it should be catched an may be user warned or just do nothing. So the same thing here.

try using this app Battery calibration this why yesterday for example had 30% reboot 13% lol so i decided to use the app, gonna see if i get any improvement in battery life, like i had on my previous phones (Desire/HD2) :D

GPS don't work I can't turn it on
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bmbm:
I had the same problem, just follow this guide:

- Boot to recovery

- Wipe data factory reset, wipe cache.

- In Advance: wipe dalvik cache and wipe battery stats.

- In mount and storage - format data , system and cache

- Reboot to download mode

- flash the rom with odin again

and it helps me.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dandroid13:
Same here. :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Hehe....I work 12 hour shifts which includes some days and some nights so when I'm on here at night its because I'm at work and not cause I have no life :D:D:D

But yeah....I love this place ...and the guys on here are great!

I also got the auto brightness bug. Toggle only works for the first touch. Even in settings, the setting is stuck. Gonna reboot and wipe cache etc, see if that helps.

PS...does Litepro ever come on here or does he just support his own site? If not can someone who's registered there report this bug? Thx

**EDIT..**

07:17...I can confirm that wiping cache and dalvik once again and rebooting has fixed the auto brightness issue for me.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] evrosat:
GPS works for me. Just reboot and turn on it from quick settings panel. No problem with brightness.Without full wipe.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] phonei900:
You could try the CF kernel
[Galaxy S II Android Development] delevic:
Rom and kernel is really unstable and have lot of bugs.

1.Phone often resets itself

2.Freezes in sleep mode

3.Toggles like gps, wifi is often blocked, phone reset will fix that but it will happen again
[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Nope,

FULL wipe and immediately re-flash and don't restore System crap. After first boot, reboot in CWM Recovery and wipe cache & dalvik.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Delete
[Galaxy S II Android Development] master1988:
I don`t have any resets, reboots and no freezes here.

But i recognize gps turn on/off problem after a while. It was also on 2.6...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
GPS and wifi toggle issues are present on stock rom also so I wouldn't blame this rom enrtirely. Some kernels seem to fix it.

Does anyone think that notification vibration is a bit weak? When I adjust it up full in sound settings its nice and strong, but when I toggle sound/vibration in the notification bar it feels weak and it also feels weak when a message comes in.

Also, if u toggle between sound/vibration and silent/vibration the vibration is stronger on sound/vibration.

It IS present but a bit weaker than I'd like it to be on silent/vibration.

Can anyone confirm this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Feels same to me. But i havent calibrated my sense of touch lately :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lenny81:
I can also confirm wiping cache and dalvik again has fixed brightness bug. Cheers.

Bluetooth mouse connection problem

Hi,

I switched from lite'ning rom gingerbread to the ics 2.7 version.

Now I can't get the microsoft bluetooth laser mouse 5000 to work with this rom. It used to work in gingerbread...

Anyone else have this problem?

Cheers
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Its not implemented in siyah kernel yet. Check with other kernels if it works.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] idpro:
about version 2.7

why when I try to change security setting I have to restart to apply it, that was not in the security settings only it happened in the data settings too, please advice me what to do to fix it.

thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jeroensk:
Thanks, I thought it was the kernel, wasn't sure. I tried the three that come with the ROM all don't work. But I guess I'll have to wait. Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] apogee91:
When I installed 2.6 the ROM or android update reset all my settings, removed all app shortcuts and widgets. Basically after flashing it showed the default desktop theme. It took me a long time setting it back like it was before. If I flash 2.7 will it happen again? Before flashing I was using the UltraToxic Rom 8.1
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Mr.Greg:
Nope, if you will not factory reset you phone.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alienmaan:
Do all the 4 Wipes, Do not install apps from Titanium Backup, Reinstall them individually, That worked for me. Also get the latest Siyah 3.1.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] phonei900:
!! Everyone who facing problems with the Lite'ning Rom v2.7, just flash the CF-Root kernel and everything seems to work perfectly. !!

The Siyah and SpeedMod has still some small bugs :eek:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] megatm:
Could someone upload the file from v2.7 android.policy.jar at system/framework ?

I lost my backup and didn't want to flash the whole rom again.

Tks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
It is a non-wipe rom, even though you flash through Odin..

You won't lose anything with a new flash ;)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] megatm:
But I'll have to uninstall +50 samsung bloatware, and reinstall all my mods...

That's why...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Delacor:
I would like to say stock kernel has more bugs and freezes than a good modded and frequently updated Siyah kernel. Modded kernels are free from SammyBloatware and all the other Wakelock, batterydraining, screenistobrightatlowestsetting -Crap. I never had a bug with gps, it just works! Don't know what you are doing but I'm sure it is NOT the kernel. If Its all fine after flashing CF it its just that a new kernel Cleans Cache and Dalvik...

Report a Bug if you are Sure its kernel related and you will have in less than 2 weeks a stable version!

Thanks Custom Kernel Developer. Thank you!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ygschiffer:
I've a couple pages back...and found that so many people getting problems with this new ROM like GPS, Sound, Security Setting, etc...

but I've just used this ROM for about 1 day...and gladly I don't experience any problems at all...and this version (2.7) really work like a charm...

so smooth and the deep sleep really good...

still didn't find any problems...

the first thing that making me surprise is the Russian Language after I flashed this ROM :D other than that this ROM is super great for me...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hkgdllm:
Hi I have been using 02/08/2011 (Lite'ning Rom v5.0) for quite a long time and since then i havent flashed any other roms...I now want to flash the newest version but there are a few things that concern me.

1. do i have to do all the wipe things? or just follow the guidelines to flash the newest rom so as to overwrite the current one?

2. will i lose all my data after flashing this rom? for example apps that i installed, do i need to re-download them in the market? how about the photos or musics?

Much gratitude! Im a newbie and i hope these questions don't bother you:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Mr.Greg:
Sir you can do without wipe, but I recommend you to do a factory reset, to avoid any FC, coz you're comming from GB to ICS. After flashing this version, in next ICS realise you'll no need to wipe you data, coz you flashing from ICS to ICS. Good luck.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] phonei900:
Check the LRToolbox > Downloads > Updates and there you will find the stock Lockscreen LRv2.7

good luck
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
1. Yes

2. Yes

Back up all ur apps first with titanium back up. This places a backup on ur internal SD card. If you format ur internal SD card you will lose ur back up. Many people make this mistake then wonder why titanium don't restore their apps.

When ur done flashing, open Google play, log in and download titanium again. Then restore ur apps but NOT system data.

Simple...

I have no access to network settings either ... please help

thanks :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Copaco:
Have you done a full wipe?

mount and storage:

format cache, system and data

then

advanced:

Wipe Dalvik Cache

then flash the Lite'ning Rom v2.7 again

after that go to the LRTool box and flash the CF-Root kernel

and then everything works like lightning ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Delacor:
What do you guys have always with cf-root? Its just stock rooted kernel...

Custom kernels gives the litening his lite. No crapsoftware or other speed-breakers ;)

Send from my SII ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eRPeeX:
This helps indeed. It is a roundabout way, you're a few hours working to re-install everything. But then everything runs smooth.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] break1:
I have a problem with the latest release of this rom... i cant change the brightness... not on the power widget, neither in the settings or statusbar.... any fix available for it???

but anyway i love this rom. its so damn fast compared to gingerbread :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xflowy:
does this erases my sd card oder the internal one?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] RiTCHiE007:
Hmm, just came from 2.3 to 2.7. But my phone has problems with scanning the sd card... when i press it from the dropdown it will freeze my phone. Would a kernel change fix that?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
You'll find the answer if you bother to read back a page our two. ;) Users have taken the time to post their fix with the expectation others would bother to search and read for it :banghead: :p

Edit - ok I'll spoon feed. Try boot into recovery and wipe cache and advanced/dalvik :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
No...ur data partition is located on the internal SD card...but it WILL wipe that.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lenny81:
A bit off topic and i can remember someone mentioning a theme a while back. But are there any decent themes that are compatible with this Rom out there? Sorry if this has already been answered :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] phonei900:
Try the CF-Root kernel, you can find it at the LRToolbox
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eqjunkie:
Ive got a weird problem since going from LR 2.1 to 2.7

All aspects of the ROM work fine its just my keyboard is skipping the letters Y, H & B in portrait. In landscape they type out fine. Ive tried recalibration of the display and gyro and removed all but the default samsung keyboard. Its doing my head in. Was working fine before the upgrade and followed the usual wipe instructions as I always do.

Any ideas fellow propeller heads ;-)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sduford:
I'm trying LR7 w. Syiah 3.1 RC1 and the LRToolbox doesn't seem to work. I download updates like CRT-Off effect, or the ICS dialer and they download fine but the flashing fails and it goes by too fast for me to see what is going on.

I tried wiping the LRToolbox data with TB and it didn't help. I'd like to try and flash it manually but I can't find where LRToolbox downloads the files.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Mr.Greg:
Did you check in sd card/download?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sduford:
Yes, not there. I did find a Litening folder that has a /tmp subfolder in which there is a temp.zip file with the right timestamp. Still, a bit scary to flash that without knowing what it really is...

Edit: that temp.zip was in fact the ICS dialer and it flashed fine. Not sure why it wouldn't flash from LRToolbox.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dannyc93:
well about to update from 2.6 to 2.7 but cant decide if i should do a wipe data (will wipe cache and dalvik) Am i more likly to get FC´s if i dont wipe data?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Mr.Greg:
Yep, do a factory reset to avoid any FC. After flashing you can easy restore you apps with TB.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eqjunkie:
well Ive tried everything I can think of to fix my keyboard problem. wiped cache then dalvik and again flashed 2.7 over the top of itself (no wipe) and keyboard problem with the Y, H and B Keys. Its like the screen has a black spot but its ok in Landscape which is a total pain in the ass.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dannyc93:
Have you tried using another keyboard...you never know may work, and would let you know its not a software issue if it still does it!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eqjunkie:
Yeh installed Go Keyboard over the top of it and still doesnt wanna work like before the upgrade. Bit weird as everything else is fast, seems a shame to have to roll back to an earlier ROM which I dont wanna do.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dannyc93:
Thats wired..try reflashing...wiping data too, maybe try Fix permissions first...that sometimes cleans up some issues for me!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] αкαѕнα:
I have allways updated the phone without wipe before... :p

I had lots of problems, like several apps was freezing, rebooting, etc.

The update was like a nightmare from hell !!

Anyway.. after following this guide everything works just fine...

Thank you all..

LOVE YA <3
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Updating without a wipe can go fine a lot of the time. However, sometimes the /system partition can get messy of corrupt and you end up with strange things happening.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Misterdjus:
I am having some problems with the response of my toch screen... Havent had that problem before with any rom... Sometimes it just doesn't respond or sometimes to late... Any ideas?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] k4bbe:
Same issue here. Searched high and low for a resolution but no joy. Using Siyah 3.1 rc1. Also tried Cf root but still the same.

You can flash manually via cwm which is a bit of a pain. Temp.zip is the downloaded update in listening temp folder.

If anybody could highlight a fix it would be appreciated.

Thanks :)

Any dramas reverting to an older LR revision from 2.7 ? Im still unable to get this keyboard working properly, Ive tried everything, Format System/Data etc etc, full wipes of device and caches and refuses to get my Y H & B keys working in portrait.

Its starting to give me the ****s. Any help appreciated.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Can't see why there would be any issue. Best to FULL wipe and just restore you nandroid in CWM.

I just checked and my stock keyboard is behaving ok.

Have you checked its ok immediately after flash and before setup and restore? Before restoring anything and setup, make sure you boot into recovery and wiped cache and dalvik. Has cleared some wifi and gps toggle issues for some, maybe for you too.... Hope it helps :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
No issues here either on stock keyboard ... Using it right now on landscape and portrait. Problem is at user end im afraid.

Maybe try replacing the keyboard in the rom before flashing....or maybe redownload the rom in case of a bad download.

U could also try format the sd card before installing in case its reading from a backup or something....just a guess :confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] phonei900:
There is a fix at the LRToolbox ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eqjunkie:
How would I go about that. I just full wiped, and installed 2.6 and the same thing. Its not a hardware issue as its registering all points on the display in Landscape and was working fine in 2.1 before the upgrade. I feel like throwing the ****er at the wall atm been at it all day ;-)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] αкαѕнα:
THANK YOU... That fix solved the problem <3
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Extract the rar file of the rom and I think the keyboard is called "Latin me.apk". Its located in /system/app. Just replace the keyboard from ur working v2.1 with a root file explorer.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] phonei900:
or try this LatinIME keyboard
[Galaxy S II Android Development] αкαѕнα:

Awhile ago I switched from LR to CM, now having betatested CM9 for a bit I checked back here only to see that LR has made some big steps since my last version (1.6) and I' m definatly switching back!

At the moment I' m downloaden 2.7 from the website, this is however quite slow, is there a reason there are no downloads available on usenet? I'd be happy to put it up there?

Keep up the good work and thnx for making one excellent rom!

Hi Guys,

I've flashed 2.7 and now my SG2 sticks at the welcome screen after the voice message.

I've re-flashed it several times , means I get contact with Odin the flash process is executed without any failure message.

Than I've tried to flash an earlier version 1.1 , 2.0 ... 7 but its always the same.

Does anybody have an advise what to do ?

Any idea that may help is welcome.

greetings from Slovenia.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
In CWM Recovery-

1. Format system, factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik (advanced)

2. Immediately boot into Download Mode and flash ROM with Odin

3. Wait for boot, be patient, maybe 5 mins ;)

If you have any issues with wifi toggle, download the latest siyahkernel and flash in recovery. Wipe cache and dalvik first
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 4EVA:
Any one here with 2.7 working quickpanel, which toggles gps, wifi on the status bar?? I did a search and noticed some people are having this problem.

Btw i came from 2.5 and only wipe dalvik and cache

I hope to make sure the quickpanel is working on 2.7 without any problems before i do a proper full wipe.

Thanks!!

Didnt noticed the post above me and post straight after i reached home. I think its fixed for now.
