Just wondering if 7% for 7 hour idle overnight is good in terms of battery performance. Or do you have to gauge it only when its under load
[Galaxy S II Android Development] iQanTa:
Hey, thanks for the great on. I just flashed to your rom yesterday but for some reason, when i receive a pop-up notification from whatsapp, my phone screen would not power off automatically, which caused by phone's battery to drop my 15% within 2 hours.... Is this a bug of some sort. And is the battery suppose to drop by so much even if the display was left on for two hours only on the lock screen??

USB On The Go (OTG) Did Not Work

Hi guy, it's litening 5.0 did not support USB on the go (OTG) to convert MHL port to USB port so that pendrive or any USB device can connect to SGSII phone?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] LiFE1688:
Maybe it is telling you to mess with the kernel. :D

Try using [KERNEL] SpeedMod SGS2

There are updates to the kernel that is presently used by this ROM.

Do not use any undervolting, overclocking utilities, unless you are absolutely sure you know what you are doing, and that the utility works properly with the kernel.

Most of the time, the phone doesn't wake up from suspend mode, it is because the processor has been undervolted. Each phone and processor can be different, so someone else's overclocked freqency and voltage settings may not work for you.

What the hell is happening. I'm coming from VR and no matter what I try I'm getting boot loops after install. I've flashed Frankenstein_GT-I9100_XEU_I9100XXKG6_I9100XEUKD1_I9100XXKG6 and then CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG6-v4.1-CWM4 and then tried to flash this rom and then didn't work either. Help please?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] beaver2233:
did you perform a factory reset before flashing ? ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gsw2:
I did a full wipe, cache wipe and davlik wipe. Is that what you mean? Or have I done something wrong :S

Flashing Litening to Optus badged sgs2

EDIT: Ignore this, I worked out what the problem was! *doh*

Hey guys,

Got a mate who's got an optus branded sgs2 and we've tried flashing to litening (using the exact steps in post 1 of this thread) and for some reason Odin just sits on "<ID:0/010> SetupConnection..." and doesn't progress from there.

I've been using Litening since v2 on my sgs2 but mine is unbranded and I've not had any problems so I'm not sure what's different about this Optus branded sgs2 that my mate has but does anyone know what step I'm missing?

The only thing I've done is turn on USB debugging, reboot into d/l mode and then tried starting to boot the rom via Odin and then nothing happens past the point i mentioned above. and the phone itself just sits at the download mode screen where you can use the volume up/down keys to select from the menu (like reboot, etc) and below that, in yellow, the last line of code just says "successfully applicaed multi-CSC"

odin is detecting the phone ok and everything but it just doesn't seem to be actually applying the rom...

any help?

Hi, I have a bug. When i make a voice call, Wifi turn on simultaneously. It's always happen, pls fix it. THank you
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zhamrock:
The way i measure the battery life is through the average ma/h per 5 minutes during standby and heavy use. I use battery widget monitor from the market(its free) to monitor the usage of my battery. The app is quite good which shows you the history of your usage for the past hours.

During standby, the ave usage should be 7ma and below, mine is averaging between 5-7ma on this ROM. and about 400 to 500ma during heavy use.

Im using ninphetamine kernel on top of v5 of this rom.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mossywell:
This is the post I've been waiting for: confirmation that it is possible to get battery drain this low. Overnight I get about 50 to 70mA (about 21%). I'm going to start trimming the ROM down because it does still have a lot of (what I call) junk apks lying around and see how it goes.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alemjerus:
How? I mean HOW to make call recording to start automatically when a conversation starts? It is really important!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] iQanTa:
Hey, after flashing this rom, the battery usage shows my display to be taking up 90+%.... Is this normal??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dark Emotion:
My first SGS2 flash was successful, thank you for the great rom!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AAKAAK:
I have v5 of this Rom and everything is ok except 2 things:

- when i have put the phone in the phone in the original Samsung auto dock and the drive mod start the main screen don't autorotate

- all sounds from movies, music, incoming calls, outgoing calls are going to the car audio system via aux line in except the voice during calls. The voice it is only in phone speaker.

Any solution for this issue? When I had kf1, in driving mode the screen is rotating and the call voice goes also in the car speakers.

Thank you in advance for your answers.

In saying that, I'm running 100mv under on everything under 1200 mhz. The thing to remember is that due to manufacturing tolerances every processor is different. What works for others may not work for you. Take it in small steps.

Hello

Hi,

I can say that i have lite 5.0 for some time now and with nimph 2.0.5 kernel and it is VERY good!

No crashes, runs smooth, and best of all - i got great battery life. I am very satisfied with this rom.

The one single bad thing, is the dialer, it overlaps. But it is not such a big thing :D

i have on average like 2 days of battery with medium - heavy use, in night in idle ofc.

Thank you for this great ROM.

Cheers!

Hi guys, I need your help:

1.) How to flash ninpho 2.0.5 on top of my lightning rom? do I need to wipe something? :S

2.)Which version of ninpho is the best for battery life?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] flagger:
No need to wipe anything.

1. Download 2.0.5 from this thread, 2nd post. If you download the odin file, flash it via the PDA button. If you download the CWM file, copy it to your phone, then just use the CWM app on your phone and select 'Flash Update' and select the zip file that was copied.

2. 2.0.5 is the best at the moment.

yellow triangle on 4.2

I just flashed 4.2 on my sgs2 and planning to flash nimph 2.0.5 but i want to get rid of the yellow triangle on the boot up first.. on the FAQ part of the thread this are the instructions:

How do I get rid of the yellow triangle on bootup?

1. Download the CF Root Kernel from here and extract it until you have a zImage file. Put this file on your phone's internal memory.

2. Using the PDA option in Odin, flash the Stock XXKG6 Kernel from here. The password is intratech@XDA.

3. Go to CWM, and select the Flash Kernel option. Use this to install the zImage file.

4. Download the SpeedMod Kernel (basis for 5.0) or Ninphetamine 2.0.5 Kernel and extract it till you get the zImage file. Put this file on your phone's internal memory and flash it using the Flash Kernel option in CWM.

Is it ok to flash stock XXKG6 on 4.2? since 4.2 is based on XXKG3? then should i nimph 2.0.5 afterwards?

Thanks in advance! :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ZedWings:
Hi,

can someone help? I flashed LR 5.0 over VillainROM, and the phone stuck in boot animation. I booted to CWM and factory reset, wiped cache and wiped davlik cache... still stuck in boot animation. I wiped everything again and then reflashed Lightening, but no luck, still stuck. Tried removing battery and SD card too.

Any suggesions?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hiroroi:
CWM

my CWM looks different.. Instead of the usual orange, it's font colors are blue. and there are only 4 options..

reboot system now

apply update from sdcard

I want to flash CF-Root from CWM, should i select apply update from sdcard?

So I think I did it.

Had my orange stock locked XXKG6

flashed with odin the lite'ning rom 5.0

unlocked it with the chainfire's unlock app which worked without a problem

charged battery to full and wiped the stats with cwm

anything else I am missing? Anything else to flash/do?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Xeperu:
Works great so far. Had insane battery drain in the beginning, you could feel from the heat of the phone that the CPU was pretty much 100% crunching all the time. However after recalibrating battery and clearing all caches it seems to be fine now. 12% drain over 5 hours with some minor playing around on it.

I really hate the home screen lightning though, gotta change that.

I was on Litening 5.0 for 10 days now.

Yes homescreen has slight lag for TouchWiz, it is smoother in Launcherpro but there is still slight noticeable lag compare to stock firmware.

About battery drain this is very subjective matter but I would agree.

If you did a nandroid backup before flashing Litening you can just recover it from CWM recovery. If not just download the stock firmware and flash it via Odin. Remember to wipe data and cache before doing so.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zxcslo:
I tried to copy Allshare apk from https://spreadsheets.google.com/a/sunbelt.ie/spreadsheet/pub?hl=en_US&hl=en_US&key=0Ag43oj7rLQP4dENZcmhGN0ZUa3pHSENVeXlqUm5vV0E&single=true&gid=0&output=html&ndplr=1, and replace it with Root Explorer, but then it wouldn't even show in my app drawer.

Seeking guidance.

hey I am new to android and this rooting stuff .. I bought new GS2 .. it comes with 2.3.3, basebad ver I9100XXKf1, build gingenbread.jpkg2 and kernal 2.6.35.7 -I9100JPKG .. based on this info which Lighting ROM version should I download and root my s2 with?:confused: and what else do I need to download like kernel or something?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eXnikaru:
of course..the default ROM is the official one..U can find any custom ROM here..its depend on your self requirement..The popular roms for SGS2 are litening,villian and cognition..you may also look for others which is suitable for you..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] danijaan:
thnx for your earlier respose bro .. Need to ask if I need anything else other then the mentioned files? like kernal or something? and I ma confused with all these lighting rom versions. which one should I download? lighting rom v 5?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eXnikaru:
by default,sgs2 cannot define Asphalt 6 as high graphic game..so it`s GPU will only run at 160mhz..you can use tegrak overclock ultimate to change the GPU`s clock and lock to 267mhz ..then you can play Asphalt 6 smoothly and not overheating..

Edit:tegrak overclock ultimate only work with stock,cf,lulz and tegrak kernel.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eXnikaru:
firstly,u go and read the features of litening rom..if u feel it is suitable for you then you can download it..

The latest version is v5.0 with speedmod kernel..just follow the instruction on the 1st post to flash the rom..but some ppl like ninp`s/lulz & tegrak kernel..so they felt those kernel are smoother and they will install it after flashed litening rom..

The method to flash the rom is same as flash the kernel...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] danijaan:
thanks a lot .. If I don't flash the kernal and flash my GS2 with lightning rom, will that be fine?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eXnikaru:
will be fine...the litening rom come with speedmod T17 by default..

But speedmod`s kernel latest version is already T22..you can download the latest version and flash it..

The flash kernel method is same as flashing the rom..

If you want to thanks me..can press the thanks button below the post :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] E-riko:
djeez, just follow the steps in the FAQ, in the first post of this thread there is a link to that FAQ.

the FAQ explains the installation STEP BY STEP! how can you go wrong if you follow the steps? you cant

your questions doenst make sence, ow but you would know that IF you read the FAQ!!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] danijaan:
Ohh .. Ok, means I can flash kernal anytime after flashing my gs2 with lighting Rom, right?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] danijaan:
E-riko, I appreciate your response. I read those FAQ's but I was seeking some more details and eXni clarrified them quite well.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eXnikaru:

Thanks for your answer :) But i dont know enough about kernels. Litening ROM includes Speedmod Kernel(right?). Can i flash stock KG6 kernel or cf kernel or tegrak kernel directly? If i flash stock kernel, do i lose root access?

(sorry for my English again..)

Edıt: Do i have any alternatives except tegrak overclock ultimate for change GPU clock? And by the way, in litening rom asphalt 6 smoother than stock rom altough more overheating. Why is it?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Not Human:
To start with, Thanks Litepro

I'm poor, but a measly donation of 12$ has been sent earlier today

Okay. I'm a noob, and the Galaxy S2 is my first smarthphone. But I've read over half the posts in this thread and researched like a madman.

I have multiple possible solutions for bootloops, getting rid of the yellow triangle, and a host of other information that has been repeated multiple times in this thread, all copied to a notepad on my PC. (Is it really that hard to look through the thread before posting about these things people?) I had multiple courses of action prepared in case things went wrong.

Flashed LR 5.0 and then Ninphetamine 2.0.5. after noticing battery drain

...Calibrated the battery just as others have instructed

...undervolted based on what others have done

...set up juice defenders as others have done

...reduced wakelocks as others have done

...bought and used my dongle for the yellow triangle

...customized according to my tastes... etc...

I love this Rom!

most of the times when i get a call

really annoyed with this bug as it happens almost every other time... i am guessing its coz of the call recorder.... please tell me any way of disabling that

other than that I am still on 4.1 as its better battery saver than the current 5.0

get 2 days easy from it

love the rom and want to help you make it better... please post a repy if you know a solution to this... thanks all
[Galaxy S II Android Development] VSAndroid:
Downloaded the ROM today and I am enjoying it!

Found a bug though. Everytime in am in a call, the screen just turns off within second. When you are in a call which requires you to press buttons it is annoying to see the screen turning off and on again.

Great ROM though.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Cxpher:
Just disable proximity sensor during calls. Its designed this way so that u don't accidentally end calls by touching your face against the end call button.

You can disable it in "Menu ==> Settings ==> Call ==> Untick Turn on Proximity Sensor

Great ROM!

Really great ROM overall, just a shame with the bootloops, though.

I was coming from stock XXKE7, so I performed a full wipe (data, cache and dalvik), then i flashed the ROM through odin, got stock into bootloops, performed full wipe again, then I flashed base XXKG6 with CF-kernel, then Lite'ning ontop of that, and now everything works great!

This must be the best looking ROM out there! :)
