I think I might have made a mistake... I picked only the XWKK2 Stock kernel and not the XEN listed on intratech post ....
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
you need stock kernel only when you want get back to stock from root....no need to download Kernel

Even I hate those iPhonish square icons with round corners. If I wanted my phone to look like iPhone I would buy one. You should give CheckROM a try. It's pretty good.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
yep........
[Galaxy S II General] mrcreativity:
Anyone try the oxygen ROM yet? Wanna know how it is in terms in speed, stabilty and general user experience.

One thing new users should do is backup their EFS information before modding the phone in anyway. Hellkat's Tool is good enough. I have 4 copies of my backup.
[Galaxy S II General] ImSherlocked:
Try CheckROM.
[Galaxy S II General] eaglerazor123:

[Galaxy S II General] Hrithan2020:
@All, who have tried out different kernels, how do you feel the sharpness, mdnie, lower brigthness changes done by speedmod compared to other kernels.

I am currently using speedmod. Would love to have your impressions on the kernel. Since, the SGS2 is already so crazy fast, I don't see any need for OCing [and am sceptical about the battery saving with UV; based on my exp with SGS]..

Any suggestions, with the specific reasons would be welcome.
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Oh nothing secret dude, its just the way i have set it,

*will watch for wakelocks

*frequently sinking apps

*apps using more cpu in bkground

and remove all those once i find it

*some undervolting,no 3g,regular charge cycle

Its hard to say man, its just the way i maintain the mob

Yep whole game in 5 hours :D From Lunch to Dinner last saturday :D SP Games are actually smaller these days. Thanks to the popularity of MP. BF3 took 6 hours and MW3 05:00:17 (just checked the time) :P :D

Same here gaming only post office :'( and weekends :D

Play FIFA for a never ending experience :D but u gotta love footbal for that .
[Galaxy S II General] Hrithan2020:
What's so surprising about that? Having tried both windows phone [ Lumia 800 ] and iPhone 4, I can definitely say , that for the same hardware, both the OSes are much more optimized.

Was BF3 worth it? Am not much of an FPS fan, but like the MW series, didn't find the older BF:BC2 to be that compelling. [besides my H/W won't probably be able to handle, it at high settings].

Anyone tried Skyrim? Going from the reviews, it seems to be a pretty long game. Also, minecraft anyone?

I have started AC: Revelations, seems more of the same .. :( So, skipped playing it this weekend.

Excited about Arkham City though !!

BTW: Any thoughts on my question regarding the kernel?

EDIT : I meant FPS fan not plan :P..
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Sad to say but that's the truth :(

BF3 is totally worth it. I was COD fan for years but with this latest MW 3 I am no more. Epic game? No way! Not anywhere near epic! My opinion, others could and should vary.

If you wanna compare BF 3 and MW 3, I'll put it in a simple way,

BF 3- 8.5/10

MW 3- 5.5/10

Tower Defense is nonsense and so disgusting. Other than that it was a good one, awesome ending.

Same. Will try harder to take more life of my KB and Mice again....:D

••• Purchased Endomondo :)
[Galaxy S II General] Hrithan2020:
Hmm.. TBH, I didn't like MW 3 that much. [as said, prefer, TPV games].

Is that score comparing just the SP campaigns of both the games and not including the MP, which for BF 3 , is universally considered much superior ?

Yeah, horrible Tower Defense.

I am on shopping spree, have bought around 9-10 apps so far. Would have loved to buy the swiftkey and paper camera, but the android market was showing it as purchased . [had got both from getjar, and uninstalling and then installing from market also didn't work].
