It is very good.

It has some really good sergeons.

Those who are coming from hd2 are familiar with the hyperdroid team.

Their kernel is really good,getting 6 hours on screen time with the latest Andromeda.

By the way Amazon app store free app of the day is a Moon Phone Pro. Looks cool with a LWP too.

Can anyone here guide me with Steps !

Hi Guys,

I have asked this twice, nobody has replied me. I am asking it again, hoping some one will be courteous to answer my question :-) I want to have Pandora on my SGS-2 right now is restricted/ not available for download from Market for Indian users. I tried to directly intsall APK file it installed the PANDORA APP but it doesnt work. My question is will just installing the APK file directly wont work ? Do I need to root my phone for that.

Can anyone give me steps here on how to install Pandora and get it running after I have rooted my phone

Once I root my phone install Pandora on it and get running and again unroot my phone to its original kernel will Pandora still work or it will stop working ?

is there not any other way to get Pandora running on Indian Phone here in India without rooting the phone ?
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
well its not that easy, i tried to mod some apps with multi dpi but its a time consuming process and i failed to achieve something useful, as of now most of the apps in the hyperdroid rom are multi dpi and can be used in other custom roms with same firmware version. was in touch with hyperdroid author and got that info.

[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Oh okay. Thanx for the info. I everytime set the DPI to 200 and below and just come back to 240 after a hour. I'm just too addicted to the TW. Its so smooth and standard. Samsung has done a great job with it.

BTW, how is Siyah 2.6.6?

Will you be buying one? Is it worth 3000k? I'm having two minds about it.

@Chetan, the logo for your latest ROM looks uber cool! Its awesome! Keep it up :D

if you want tw launcher with multi dpi, there is already one in our forums, ( i think in hyperdroid rom thread), it supports dpi value of 192 and 160. you can try those

Lol. Man I'm seeing a lot of K's these days :p

Oh thats good. But it will not give any issues with ICS 1.7 right? I will check and let you guys know.

So, what i will do is, i will make some logo's for you, in next 3-4 days, and i will PM you, those.I am asking for 3-4 days, as i get free, only in evenings.

Then, if you like any, use them.

Did you try Lucky patcher on Fancy Widgets 3.5.3 ( latest ) .? Does it work .? :confused:

[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
If KIES not working, you can try flashing via odin.

Download the KL1 firmware from intratech's thread:-

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

Also, try re-installing KIES, if u want to update via KIES only.KIES needs stable internet connection. Check that.

But, my opinion, flash it via odin.

[Galaxy S II General] Azax:
I have a question for Indian s2 owners running stock 3.2.6. Does your quadrant score ever go above 2750? My mate has an s2 from India whose score never goes above 2750 while my s2 from New Zealand consistently gets about 3500 and above. Also his camera does not focus as well as mine. Guess we cannot compare the camera but it would be cool to see quadrant scores.

CheckROM seems to be most battery efficient ROM so far. Almost 13 Hrs on battery with full time GPRS activated and I still have 76% :D

BTW @chetan_mohanty

I had some issues in Wicked ROM with Car stereo bluetooth connectivity.

i) Outgoing Calls were not allowed to transfer to Car stereo

ii) Was not able to increase volume for incoming calls.

I hope you might find use of this kind of testing :D

does the chainfire's method(along with his insecure kernel) of rooting KL1 work properly ... I saw that he has mentioned "Untested" against KL1.Has anybody tried ?
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
Does that thing happen always?Or it was just a single instance?Was it ok before in another ROM or stock ROM?I am surprised i didnt touch any of those features in the ROM..Anyways thanks.I will look into the bug.BTW i dont have means to test.Dont have bluetooth stero car speakers :(
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
That's the latest Indian ROM right? I have tried rooting with CF root and no problems.
[Galaxy S II General] sumitpathak:
Oh..no probs.

I encountered that issue consistently. I'll do one thing, i'll move back to wicked rom again and let you know the results and full steps to repro it. I don't mind being a tester for amazing dev :D

I did report in his thread that I have tested and its working. But did not specifically tell him to remove the "untested" from his post lol :p should I do that?

Also I think you missed my post. How is Siyah 2.6.6? Got to flash it?

Guys, I thought of buying this pen drive www.ebay.in/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170758556978 as its come under weekly offer. But read some reviews telling the port is covered with plastic and will tear off after usage. Also the transfer speed is very low. Suggest some other one? :)
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
I have the same pen drive and its full of crap and copies files at pen drive at 10 MB/s(atm this is the speed but its more many times)

And read speed is 20 MB/s

[Galaxy S II General] sandeep10:
The sim card lock would be the default pin. You need to ask your telecom operator. Then you can change it to your code. Then on phone restart, your sim cannot be used and also I think if lock screen code is set, phone cannot be used.

Network error? Data / GPS should be on for all this to work.

Hi Srikat

I tried this on my SGS2 but could not get to 3G connectivity. It is still showing E.

Further when I called up Vodafone, Bangalore they said if I get 3G enabled then I'll loose my Free 1Gb/Month offer. Is it True ?
[Galaxy S II General] srikat:
I am in Bangalore as well.

Go to any Vodafone store and talk to the folks there. I went to the one on 100 ft road Indiranagar.

By the way, the 3G charges will start showing up in the "Total outstanding (Rs)" in your online account.

The cust svc rep said that the free offer will be applied at the end of each month's billing.

this was the same reaction when i plugged in my headphones.Such a high end device and such a crap audio output.

the Audio quality during calls is perfect.its only when i listen to music there is absolutely no bass in my headphones or for that matter my earphones.i have high quality professional DJ headphones whose sound output is always amazing when i use any htc phone.(alog with audio booster from htc.)

but in the Galaxy S2 the sound goes crap when i try to increase the equilizer settings.Every Samsung device has the same problems.

in the end all i can see is people searching for voodoo sound fixes.

[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Hm, don't know if you have used any Samsung devices before or not, but from the day I stepped to Samsung world, for their S-AMOLED stuff, I gave up on Audio listening. They just don't have anything near good audio quality, I am talking hear about Earphone audio quality, not speaker. All same with my, I8910, S8500 and now I9100.

Hi Srikat

I visited Vodafone Banshankari Store and the guy sitting there told me that if I get 3G activated on my Mobile, I'll loose 1 Gb Free Offer currently on my mobile.

Is it True ?
[Galaxy S II General] nonchipmunk:
Ummm, this is not the US. Service reps here are not too tech-saavy and will not go ahead and learn what's rooting and how to detect it, just to spite customers. I didn't ask "I have rooted and flashed, will you punish me for this?". I asked "What checks do you do for warranty and Does root/flash void warranty?" I hardly think they would have a national meet about this. Better safe than sorry. In small cities they said they'll just check the bill only. Only Mumbai said they'll check the download count, and charge you Rs. 650, but warranty will still be valid. Nobody said "Root? Oh wow let me learn this awesome thing so I can catch evil customers." I think we can safely root our phones. Flashing ROMs might get caught only in bigger cities, but it's nothing that a USB jig can't fix.

If i go to Samsung store will they replace my S2 display or only the glass with a new one ?
[Galaxy S II General] karan999:
Yes they have to.i would fight with them if they didnt.

Perhaps screen replacements are not considered in warranty but for a genuine reason like urs, id suggest you to tell them one more thing.

tell them the phone heats every now and then and you have to switch it off or sometimes even remove the battery.

Force them for a complete replacement.

Put this as an article in the local news paper.pressurize Samsung.

Im fedup of this phone n if anything goes wrong, id rather sell it off.

i got an offer of 25K but my parents forced me not to sell it off.Now im using it as an ipod.

Bought an second hand Nexus One and using it as a phone.So happy.

[Galaxy S II General] rishap.shah:
Which market r u talking abt. I did not receive any update.

How do u check the version of the market??
[Galaxy S II General] goldbergx:
You can check it using LBE Privacy Guard (under the list of system apps) or Titanium Backup. I am sure there are other ways too.

Everyone - LBE Privacy Guard lets you control what app has access to what data, eg. IMEI, phone logs, call logs, messaging, calling, network etc - you can manually change settings for each app.

I was surprised how many apps actually used my IMEI! It is a free app and extremely useful to ensure privacy.
[Galaxy S II General] Joe_Nalin:
:D didnt even think to enable data...SIM change alert set as soon as Wi-fi was on..Thanks!!

Dnt want to get into SIM card lock :rolleyes:

Did any off you notice that SlideIT Keyboard is on 85% sale? Cost Rs.66.63.
[Galaxy S II General] sandeep10:
Yes, it does it through Internet. Again all this is useless without data on. But sooner or later the chap who has stolen your phone will switch it on, one hopes.

I have now kept a pin lock on my lock screen. Maybe an added hassle, but will dissuade the chap who has stolen it.

Any body has any tip for lock screen widget which gives owner info? I remember my old Palm had it several years ago.

Edit: There does seem to be something alongwith WidgetLocker, but that app itself has too many conflicting comments, mainly supposed to be a big battery hog on SGS2.

I use checkROM v4, with speedmod k2-18 kernel.

Battery is pretty good with this combination. I get around 5 hours of display time, and with normal usage i get 2 or more days of backup, with wifi on most of the time.

Heavy usage gives, at least a day's backup.

So, i would suggest you to look for checkROM
