My S2 just gave me A mini panic attack :p I was already thinking, how to act nob at the SC :D

what happened was this:

i flashed KLPB ICS today in the morning. Its still in its 1st discharge cycle. Returned from office after some stupendous Bangalore traffic, sat infront of PC and kept my S2 on the table. Suddenly the screen lit up Picked it up and saw "Panic Kernel Upload Mode" with a hex number below it. Held the lock button and the phone restarted normally. All seems good. But can someone enlighten me on what exactly is "Panic Kernel Upload Mode" ? What causes this to be triggered ?
[Galaxy S II General] naturist:
Overclock/under volt ?

Craptel S***S Stupid plans with stupid FUP.
[Galaxy S II General] Raven'sSight:
Nope...total stock...what is that Panic Kernel Upload Mode?

I seem to the only one happy with AirtelBB

4mbps@1700 upto 75 gigs. speedtest.net shows over 4.2 always :D
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Did you opened up your port and set the upload limit to 10 KB?

Btw guys I'm so much frustrated, my quest for sandisk 32 GB ended up in a failure, none of the ****ing shop in my city have it. In few shops they made a big show of me as I have installed ics.( gave them offline tutorial on how to upgrade :D)

Flipkart next.....

Everything seems good now after increasing the global maximum number of connections to 10000 from 50:D
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
A value that high will only be helpful when the seeders are more than leechers, set It to either 800 or 1000 optimal value :)

Guys atlast I ended up with transcend :):( that's the one and only type available here.
[Galaxy S II General] ano.cresent:
Guys... How soon do you think sammy will release the kernel source code for S2 so that our beloved CM guys can hack the rom out of it with all the features... Am really tired of waiting now for ICS.
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Not until official ICS is released
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Oh sorry dint notice that. Here is the listing with same seller. Giving from the same seller because I can vouch that the seller gave genuine card as online market is filled up with lots of duplicate ones. Link: www.ebay.in/itm/CO-SEALD-PACK-ORIGI...288594?pt=IN_Memory_Cards&hash=item256bacfb52

Ping as I understand the rate in which the packets are exchanged between the server and the client. So if its lower value that is lesser milliseconds then it means the communication between the client and server is fast and there won't be any lags. You will notice this when playing online games like counter strike. If the ping is high you will mostly see lagging screen and get disconnected soon

Oh so you already brought transcend card? :eek: you could have tried online store mate. Like the link above. I brought one myself :)

Quick question: will the ICS support adhoc network out of the box? Or trying the mod will make it work? Can someone confirm please? :)

Been on hyperdroid and redpill for past 2 weeks.

Redpill is the default kernel of hyperdroid androidmeda Rom.

New rev1.2 is really nice comes with deadline/ondemand combination and with slight undervolting by default which can be tweaked .Performace of kernel is good and its smooth have not experinced any lags.

i get like 24-26 hr battery juice with good usage and mostly 3.5 hr+ display on time.

Overall i am a happy hyperdroid/repill kernel user and will stick to it until Official ICS shows up.

M new New to galaxy s 2 .help me with tweaks.i havent rooted the phone as i dont want to lose the warranty or is it possible to unroot and regain your warranty.? Help me out with this pls.

And what roms can i use in it ?

Pls help m new to android and dnt knw much about it but m a quick learner.!!!.
[Galaxy S II General] renegaderahul:
Hi... The first thing you can do is, go to android market, download - Go launcher ex,Regina launcher, adk launcher....

Launchers are kind of different UI's....after installing these, just press the home button and u can switch between these..

After this choose your favourite and go to left button(next to home button) and play with the settings .. That'll be a gud start to your tweaking :)

Cheers

[Galaxy S II General] ishaquek5:
Oh thanks with this!

What roms are available for sgs2 and actually what are they? how to install them?
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I would suggest you wait for few days and think if you really need root...I don't need root for my mobile I am happy with it's Look..I am using Go Launcher Ex ...IT IS BEST!
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Well there are plenty of ROM's available, see under Development section.

I'd advice you to root, because it's a very simple yet effective process and will definitely help you for future use. But I'd advice you to stick with Stock ROM if you are not crazy about Custom ROM's. When we have a good and stable ROM like KF3 we don't need anything else ;)

All are just my opinion.

The Case Mate Tough cases are back on sale by Navkar_Collection on eBay. You could grab one if you want :)

yup, as i already mentioned it was a quick deal to swap my existing 16 gb card, hence didnt had enough time for options.
[Galaxy S II General] brar.arsh:
Everything was working fine in ICS leaked FW till last night.

But .. Suddenly phones light lit up while charging, i thought it has fully charged. But it was just 67%.

Then this happened few times.

After that i unplugged the phone and started doing something on it. Suddenly Tap to Talk opened automatically and closed.

It happend many times. I rebooted, but it kept on happening.

I switched the phone off, but it turned on itself after some time.

I plugged in the charger, but it dint charge.

I tried USB, same result but a promp, charging pause due to over voltage.

I took out the battery for whole night an d put it on in morning.

Same tap to talk and not charging.

Then flashed back to original stock 2.3.6 and now it seems to be good.

Anyone having same issues.

For ur info i flashed ICS on Friday, and till last night there were no issues and i dint installed anything new.

Waiting for good response.. :(

I think 2nd part will be better than 1st part...Saw 2 trailers both are awesome

I said to you before only you need to go to service center...1st order Jig make counter 0 and flash a stock kernel of I9100g and go to service center and attack like noob there say you were trying to flash latest FW with kies and this happened

Guys. Any good roms for i9100G? Does siyah kernel work on it??

My brother purchased SGS-II which says i9100 outside and i9100G inside :-\

Anyways, There's nothing he can do now. Looking for some suggestions to flash on to his mobile. Any suggestions?
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
I hate Samsung for this.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Outside I9100, inside I9100G? That's cheating.

There is a lot he can do actually and that's my suggestion.

I9100G is made by Samsung for cheating us. |Period|
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
File a case in consumer court if you can spare some time. Seriously Samsung did a bad job in sending the G version to market without giving proper info. Even the shop keepers don't know about it.
[Galaxy S II General] Debadatta:
Guys, how do I understand if my oleophobic coating is there or not? I suspect its got removed. :(
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
There should be a 'G' in the box product code for sure. People should be aware of that
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Guys is there any app which can trim flv videos in mobile only?
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
You sure its disclosed in the box as G? Because one of my friend saw that there were no indication of G in the box and the only way to know was look at tiny model code as I9100LKGINU.
[Galaxy S II General] sam142000:
When I contacted Samsung they said there is no such Oleophobic coating on the S2

What is the difference between an old & a new bootloader?
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
They are dumb, dont count in their words.

@ harsha

i meant that product code only, atleast we people who are using XDA should be aware of the "G" gimmick. knowing that there is a "G" model in the wild and ending up purchasing it is poor. Indeed i saved exactly 4 to 5 of my friends from getting the "G" model and now they are much happy and got the standard version(still available).

People who dont know about XDA will never care about mods,tweaks,speed etc so they dont care about "G" and non "G".

---------- Post added at 11:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 PM ----------

old bootloader is from GB which allows you to use USB jig, the new ones wont allow you to use usb jig.
[Galaxy S II General] rajarshi10:
Any other difference between the bootloaders? Is it faster or something like that?
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
there wont be any speed difference in bootloaders afaik, they are only used to load the os .

Then what do I do if the Oleophobic coating on my S2 has worn off?
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
i have heard that the coating will diminish eventually after usage for some months.

Better check it by keeping your mobile in 180 degree with your eyes in a bright light location and check for difference in screen area, if the coating is gone that particular area should look different from the rest.
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
LOL

i meant like ironman,spiderman,mortal kombat,etc
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
180 degree? Isn't that too hot for cellphone?
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
lol, i think youve just slept ...

i meant the 180 degree angle :) forget s2, we wont with stand 180 c first of all :D
[Galaxy S II General] sam142000:
I assume he meant 180 degree angle not temperature!! :p
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Yeah! I just scared thinking of phone in the oven with 180 degree temp. :D
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
@bala- Yep, no one here in XDA will be misjudged by the 'G' model, but think how small percentage of I9100 buyers know about XDA, so the amount of cheated buyers are actually HUGE. Can't believe how third standard Samsung is!!! Sigh..

Have you tried battery stats wipe in cwm? IMO some time it shows wrong battery status from earlier rom and need to be wiped
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Have you tried the touch booster yet?

Yup. That is what I meant. Samsung must disclose and inform the customers properly as to the model. Also they have set the same price as for the non G version even when the processor is a downgraded one?

Also guy's does adhoc network get detected through ICS? Or the GB mod will work in ICS?
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
I was so happy downloading 1 GB in 1 hour and 6 GB in 5 hour

Have you transferred them via Kies? Cause many people face this type of problem if files are transferred via Kies.

I myself wanted to check that 6 Icon column in the home menu.

by the way is it possible with 160 dpi and at least 5 icon colmun ??

From what I've read is that it only prevents the counter from resetting.

I'm using blade buddy for this stuff, and it works great.

Basic Location info from operator?

I want to know the location info that is broadcast by the operator / the cell your latched too..

I know we have a GPS and lot of advance option in S2, but want to know if we can have this basic option.. I tried enabling broadcast I ended up getting SMS kinda messages which was repeatedly pushed into my message box.

Also apps like Network Info just provide the CID of the tower, which I cannot decipher!
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
I guess this option was available in old phones under setting called "Cell Info display", right?

Its not available in S2 or many latest phones. I read somewhere that broadcaster stopped this felicity for some reasons, Not sure why....

Thanks. Downloaded now, and its working smooth.

Still do dpi change.
[Galaxy S II General] Joe_Nalin:
You are correct, S2 still has this option i.e. under messaging Settings->CB Activation. This keeps pushing the current location message every minute or so. Though I do not want to have this info as a message nor on the home screen, can some app help?

[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
The popular one is Siyha!!

if you want more battery life, have to do some setting manually. like background data, location based services, auto synck, Google maps latitude log out, Gtalk sign out when not in need.

And if you are familiar with UV, it will also save some juice:)
