My phone tends to get extremely hot when using it and then it reboots over and over until i leave it alone for a while.

My battery just went from 100% to 70% in one reboot.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
Have you taken the battery out and left it out for a few minutes?

Poeple had your problem on earlier ICS rom's, and taken the battery out for a few minutes seamed to help..

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
Don't know about the reboots, but you can reflash the kernel with out any trouble..

It should sort that problem out ;)

Anyone can tell me what are the 2 top process in the picture below?? It seems to suck my battery fast!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BULL3TPR00F:
This would only be a temp fix for the moment its giving me the issues though no?

Im hoping for a more permanent solution.

The next time it happens ill post a logcat

Hi Guys,

After installing 2.6 - some issues:

1. I don't see "contacts" tab. Anything wrong? (I need to tap settings - show all contacts)

2. Device gets stuck about every 10 minutes and I need to force reboot.

3. WiFi Tethering not working.

4. Photo Album icons not showing in any screen / software installed, but I do find it on Search - how can I add a shortcut for them?

5. Phone rebooting every 10 - 15 minutes!!

Everything else seems perfect.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
From what I've seen posted, it fixed the problem but I've never seen any good explanation as to why..

Going through the same problem.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tommythere:
for me no freezes, no reboots o.o strange...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BULL3TPR00F:
Hmm... thats weird. should the battery be pulled with the phone on?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
No, I think not... I guess the idea is to take it out long enough to make sure everything inside is powerless & on reboot everything starts up fresh..

I've never had that problem with any of the lite'ning rom's I flashed..

There are non-wipe, you could always try reflashing..?

LRToolBox

Whenever I go to "downloads" in LRToolBox, I see 6 updates found. I updated 2 updates, ICS Dialer LRv2.5 and Stock Camera LRv2.3, is it normal that when it reboots I still see these updates in the list?

Did it install the updates even though they are in the list? I don't get it..

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
They don't disapper from the LR toolbox after you have downloaded ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lenny81:
My battery life has shortened too since updating to 2.6.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mvh_01:
Tried the search function BTW, and found nothing. It's odd that it worked on CheckRom V6, and doesn't on Lite'ning
[Galaxy S II Android Development] umermajeed:
I was hesitant of updating from 2.2 because I didn't wanna go through setting up my phone again...so I backed up apps with titanium and desktop settings with apex launcher...i wiped cache, sd card and dalvik cache before updating to 2.6..now both the backups are not working for some reason...titanium doesn't show any number next to the restore batch...and apex says settings restored but nothing is really restored on any of the homescreens

The rom seems alright for the most part...there are occasional hiccups with the phone freezing and slow scrolling at times...email and everything else works...

the question i have is what is the best way to back up stuff so that after i upgrade a rom i dont have to spend hours to get the phone back to the way it was before...specifically any app related settings, homescreens setup with widgets and stuff, dock settings, accounts for the phone...

if anyone can explain a good way to backup or point me to another thread i'd really appreciate it...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
Mate, you write that you wiped your SD card... that means you wiped all your backups as well!!!!

You did everything right, but DON'T wipe your sd card next time ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] umermajeed:
I copied all the backup files and folders over to my pc before i wiped...and put them back in the phone....the apex launcher finds the restore and does its thing but i dont see stuff restored....for titanium i rebooted and it found the backup data...but i was thinking what is the point of backing up with titanium when google play reinstalls all apps anyways...

You guys who are having battery drain problems, have you tried charging to full then re-callibrate drain again till it turns itself off then charge to full again.

Messages Icon Color

I think the icon for the messages is wrong for me, the theme is blue, my phone and contacts icons are blue and I think my Messaging and Applications icons are wrong. Am I right? if so, how do I fix it?

---------- Post added at 06:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------

AND

Where is the contacts tab? Is it only missing for me?

Thanks Mates!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lenny81:
Yeah was going to try that after its charged anyway. Hopefully it'll be sorted then :):eek:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
Don't know which theme you have flashed so can't help you there..

In ICS the contacts & dailer is now split up in to 2 app's, that's why you cannot see the "contacts" when using the dailer ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] umermajeed:
Hey Rinoko, can you please help me figure out this backing up stuff...i dont wanna set up everything after flashing a rom...so what i know so far is that back up apps with titanium not the system data...does this save settings within those apps as well?

as for the apex launcher i backed up the apex settings and desktop settings...apex settings seem to apply correctly but the desktop settings crash apex...so i dont know what to do there...its takes a while to setup all the widgets and recreate the folders i had on the home screen....

any help is much appreciated

oh and like i said before...i did wipe the sd card but i moved all the backup folders before i wiped and then moved them back to the sd card after flashing...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gennadiy008:
I just changed to CF-root kernel from LTtoolbox and looks like its solved my problems with battery and RAM
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
It's sound like you did every right the first time, but I like said, a "full wipe" when changing to a new Rom dose not mean wiping your sd card..

Wipe data, dalvik & to a factory reset and that should be enough..

When using TB, I do a full back up of everything (system & user app's) AND a full backup fra CWM before changing Rom's. If anything goes wrong you can restore your Full Backup fra CWM, and your back were you started.. :)

When restoring app's with TB, all user app's+data can be restored, but be careful with system app's, especially when the build number of the Rom changes..

You do know that when you want to reinstall your app's for the fisrt time that you have to have the filter in TB set to "uninstalled" to find the backup you made??

Remember that even though the backup is there, the app's are not install yet so you won't see them with TB unless you ask to see all the "uninstalled ones" ;) then you choose "batch" then you can reinstall them.

If a system app version on the new Rom is the same as the on the old Rom, you should be able to restore just the "data" for that app, like epost or bookmarks.. but don't try restoring "app" as well..

Hope this helped you a bit, and hope you don't have as much trouble next time ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hebermc:
That is a bit odd, how do we keep track of what we have already installed?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
Good question :)

Maybe if you try to download the same thing twice, you are told that it is installed??? ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SndChsr:
CRT effect?

Sorry for the noob question, but how can I get the CRT effect? Is it possible with this rom at all? There is mention in the changelog about LRToolbox. What is that? Can anyone help and clarify?

Thank you!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lenny81:
I'll check it out tomorrow dude cheers for that, just doing battery re collab first see if that helps :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
Check your app draw, there you'll find the LR (lite'ning Rom) toolbox..

There is a "download" section and in there you'll find the "CRT off" for v2.6..

select it, then download when asked, then you hit "install"..

The phone reboots and flashing the mod, after the restart you should have the CRT effect ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SndChsr:
Thanks brother! Appreciate it!

What should I do? How do I go into recovery? Should I try flashing another ROM through odin?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] surfer3000:
lost the ICS icons

Installed 2.6 over the existing 2.5 using Odin.

Everything went well but I now see the old 2.3.x icons on the initial screen instead of the ICS icons. Any help?

Turn your SGS2 off.

Read the guide: New here? READ THIS THREAD FIRST. What Is Recovery & Download Mode?

Flash LR2.6 like in installation guide
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 4EVA:
Do i need to wipe data if im coming from 2.5 to 2.6 ??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eRPeeX:
After a nandroid backup with CWM and a backup with TB

You can try to install without wiping data. Possible that everything went smooth. Than it's OK.

Otherwise you wipe and install
[Galaxy S II Android Development] westsider:
just flashed 2.6

i will report in couple of days
[Galaxy S II Android Development] c3k:

Email crashing/5th homepage by default

[Galaxy S II Android Development] sharp87:
How is the battery backup after using this rom and is there any 3rd party launchers used ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Try wipe data for email in settings and try it again.

Home screen is a launcher problem. Don't think u can set ur preferred home screen in Touchwiz. Unless I'm mistaken. (I don't use it).

Try another launcher like Apex or Nova and set ur homescreen to whatever page u like.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lenny81:
The battery is ok. Was better in 2.5 though i have just done a recollab and just installed a new cf root kernel. I will have to wait until tomorrow to see whether it's any better. Watching 720p hd mkv for 2 hours, plus some internet browsing fb etc and sleep for roughly 8hrs i get a good 14hrs which isn't bad at all

For your serenity...I've never been able to send-receive MMS since I've had this ROM.....and APN settings are all correct. 3 operator like you
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Mr.Greg:
Hmmmm, strange. Did you try to put you sim in another phone and other sim in you phone, to see if problem still persist?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SndChsr:
Thanks man...not too crazy about other launchers. I'll stick with TW. I did a full factory reset and email still crashes. Also, just noticed taht I'll charge the battery up to 100%, click battery calibration and then the moment I unplug it, it drops to either 99 or 98%. Anyone experience this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lenny81:
Same here on o2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Yes this is normal. Its a safety feature by Samsung to prevent overcharging. However, if u leave it plugged in for a while after its charged it should read 100% when u unplug it.

Also, our exynos chip doesn't require calibration. The way to get ur fuel gauge reading correctly is to charge to 100% + say 30 mins, unplug the charger, power down ur phone and remove the battery for minimum of 90s. Then put back in the battery and reboot. This is the proper way to reset the fuel gauge on the exynos chip in our S2.

Forget any other calibration methods or apps. The way I explained above is the correct way.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lenny81:
Just as a heads up, I've been using this Rom since 2.2 and have never been able to send or receive mms, i did ask for some help a while back but no one could. Guessing nothing has changed there. I always do a full wipe before anyone suggests it. I've also tried reinstalling mms.apk which also hasn't made any difference.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
The proper way according to one of the very experienced kernel developers 'entropy512' is........... time.

It will recal itself by just using it ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Full wipe including system etc. ?

Don't restore any system apps or data.

Check your app settings.

Check your MMS APN settings (not internet APN)

Ensure data is on
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sduford:
This ROM combined with the new NEAK 2.02 kernel absolutely rocks! My phone has never felt this fast before, and smooth! So far it's rock solid, I need more time to determine battery life but it looks OK so far.

Thanks LitePro!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rafsi:
reposting my request, incase it got lost in this active thread...;-)

anyone, please guide..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
There's a whole thread discussion about this and if I remember correctly, Entropy512 came up with the process I mentioned above. Yes, you are correct, time will sort out ur fuel gauge but the method I mentioned is the quickest and easiest way ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
I have heard of this method, and recommened to other users previously. It may or may not work, and any difference made (from my personal experience) is placebo. Yes he may have come up with the idea, but i've only read of him posting the 'tme and just use it' fix since then. Could be wrong though. :o

Anyway, getting off topic and away from the ROM. Having to use the tab while the phones getting some added juice. Too many reboots and flashing will help with that :eek:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tez1:
Just tried this rom and its running great at the moment, still getting used to it.

Is there a way to enable continuous scrolling through the home and app screens?
