Your OP was a foolhardy comparison between the two phones & hence the screenies of them. If ^this is what you wanted to convey then you got it all wrong in the first place. I'm blunt not hot headed.

But the Gerrit says different. He already has a fix which is working very well according to the reviewers, now its only wait for his approval to get merged. Might be he is not completely satisfied so he is holding out on a merger.

3.5.2 is super brick bug free right????
[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
Yes and the brick bug is a history now as every kernel dev has disabled it.
[Galaxy S II General] hardiee00:
Actually I just ran EMMc brick bug app in d morning and it said under brick bug header - Yes. Insane Chip. What does that mean???? I didn't use that app be4..
[Galaxy S II General] deniso177:
Means your phone will get bring if you install the 4.0.4 Rom with Stock kernel and wipe factory settings as the emmc wipe is again enabled in it. Your safe if you use official 4.0.3 kernels/cf-root/ or developer kernels such as siyah that have the emmc wipe disabled.

Do Indian networks support fast dormancy? Does disabling it really save battery life on S2?

I'm currently on BSNL n/w and from what I have read, disabling FD helps in saving battery life only if network doesn't support it.
[Galaxy S II General] #illidan:
That's a technical question which there isn't a lot of info about so you would either need to do a test or ask your telco but I think they don't use FD but who knows..

Besides you need 3G for the FD..

Yes disabling it helps save battery when your network doesn't support it.. Here check this app out which says that it will help determine whether your network supports FD or not & this is a video from xda tv on FD
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
I don't even think that BSNL supports H+

NO. But they do support 2G calling :p
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
So you're saying, if 3G is not activated it doesn't make any difference in enabling/disabling FD?

Well, it does ;)
[Galaxy S II General] #illidan:
That's what I have read so it isn't going to make a difference.
[Galaxy S II General] TheQuarterMile:
Suddenly my phone stopped showing battery usage other then screen and phone idle had tried cleaning battery stats and and cache reset fuel gauge via Extweaks but still no luck... Had to flash rom all over again to fix it..

Why so?
[Galaxy S II General] #illidan:
For some reason if your using custom kernels like siyah (not confirmed whether this happens with other kernels or not) with some particular versions of stock firmware that happens. Don't think there is a fix otherwise it would have been done.
[Galaxy S II General] unease:
Since last week or so, my phone is just shutting down intermittently. Its very random. I switched between stock ICS ROM (indian) and then even tried cm9 and cm10. Sometimes it will be fine overnight some days it just lays dead. Peculiar thing is battery value remains same. Any one with a clue on what it could be?

[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
If RBI removes the vbv and MSC verification then many users will be f***d by hackers.Keeping this security will save many of the noobs who enter the details directly with out using the virtual key pad.Even Credit card will have that VBV and MSC verification but still you can add on play store or Paypal.
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Yeah.. And I am wondering just that how can Google Play store process the transcaction without 3D Secure PIN for example on ICICI credit cards. When I told my dad about it, he was shocked that it did not ask for 3D PIN.
[Galaxy S II General] iAnoop:

---------- Post added at 03:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:20 PM ----------

Because in Paypal and Google wallet there is an option to charge back unauthorised transactions.They usually charge a small amount and ask you to enter the amount for verification.Most of the payment processor like Paypal,Alertpay,Money bookers will verify by the same process of charging an amount.In foreign countries if there is any unauthorised transaction on there credit card the credit card company has to face the loss and the owner will be safe but its not the same in India i.e why we have this verification system.
[Galaxy S II General] Raven'sSight:
Don't worry their systems more secure than any of our half cooked security measures we see in India...since the verification is done in the beginning, there is no vbv and other physical securities necessary...

Btw virtual keyboard s are also hackable:rolleyes: especially like the static one that icici has...

And just found out a solution for network drops these days many face and keep searching for the perfect modem :p

This should work for anyone who uses 3g services in India...check use only 2g option from settings...the signal symbol will jump up..take pain to uncheck it when you need high speed data...all thanks to the crappy providers :mad: and no regulatory rules which supports the petty customers...

Hey guys, it's been a while. How you all are doing. I just logged in after ages and saw a whole bunch of JB stuff and was quite overwhelmed. I'd just like to get some suggestions on JB roms and if it's worth the update. I'm currently on resurrection remix 2.6.1 and everything works fine. Just wanted to know if JB would give me some advantages? What are you guys using right now?
[Galaxy S II General] SilencerOfLambs:
Nah mate.. JB isn't that ohmygod yet as its still in its initial stages so a lot of features missing as compared to ICS... Also the main feature Project Butter is probably not gonna come to S2 as said by codeworkx. Even i am on RR 2.6.1 but just for the heck of JB i dual booted with paranoid android jB.. On siyah 3.5.2.

Juice defender mate.. :)
[Galaxy S II General] iekansh:
When did codeworkx say that it's not gonna come to SII? Someone tell me he's wrong.
[Galaxy S II General] #illidan:
As stated many time before Project Butter improvement will come to the S2. Codeworkx never said it won't. All he said is that he either needs a JB leak from Samsung or its gonna be a PIA process to get it working with the current HWComposer which he has almost done. Also almost everything works on CM10 just a FEW features missing & a bit of niggles here & there.
[Galaxy S II General] SilencerOfLambs:
Thanks for the heads up illidian. I hadnt read codeworkx take on it directly, just heard modified versions of what he said. You sorta cleared up my thinking. Thanks.

Nothing as such. Lp7 is the latest for us, right? Which Sammy rom is the best according to you? Afaik, you try most of them. I am moving to a different city, won't have any pc or laptop for a while. So, I was thinkin to switch to a sammy rom. That's why i needed input from you guys. I wanted a sammy rom with most SIII stuff. Any idea?

Hmmm.. I don't get it, I mean pure ics looks on Samsung rom. Why? Just install a sammy rom with default looks or install aosp for aosp looks.

[Galaxy S II General] ronhoover88:
The last I used was LPG Nordic it was good but it comes with a music hub and few more apps that don't work in India.

Best bet is use the Indian rom that is LP7.

Guys tomorrow night I'm leaving and will be back on 9th night...........I thinking to restore nandroid backup of LP7....when I'm back I can just do a restore of CMX build and everything will be normal right? or I need to do a reset?
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
With SIII stuffs? Hm, no idea dude. But if you're going for the most stable one it's LP7. And with CF kernel, not Siyah.

And out of the dozen ROMs (official of course) I've tried, I might sound weird, but still KL1 GB was the most fantastic and most stable ROM I've ever used, and Siyah 2.6 was too polished and good for it. In fact I'm moving to it within a couple of days, until JB pops up.

Just one thing, the best ROM should be the one most stable, not the one with lots of features. Just my OP.

And wherever you're going just be safe.
[Galaxy S II General] iekansh:
I don't prefer Siyah tbh. You got any idea which is the best 4.0.3 rom out there?

Even I don't prefer Siyah man. KL1 was indeed the best ever. I can't go back to GB. I've tried with checkrom, it just feels odd.

Flashing siyah kernel with mobile odin? I haven't tried mobile odin at all. Do let people say their views on this too.

Flash CMX kernel on LP7 and you can boot into recovery but not os

If you want I can make a Odin tar of CMX kernel

Or you can first root your LP7 by CF root, flash CMX rom zip, reboot recovery and you will have CWMR6

[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Over Sony devices you need to manually flash the kernel because the CWM can't flash it. So I was on GB rom and then I had to flash CM9 kernel first and then flashing the zip from recovery. And all this I did without going to home screen that is.

Well chuck that. Why don't you just flash any build on CMX later and you will get CWM6 and then do whatever you want to do.

It had disappeared. See ankit's post.
[Galaxy S II General] iekansh:
I am not using the binaries directly from the default recovery. I am trying to flash cwm image from my sd. It says verification failed and all. I have tried to flash touch as well as normal recovery. Both have the verification error. Anyone got any idea? This doubt is a real bummer guys.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I think I will do it this way

1) backup CMX using nandroid

2) restore LP7 (rooted)

3) on 9th night or 10th morning flash CMX rom and reset it

4) reboot recovery and restore CMX backup

That's alright. No need.. :) I just hope this works for you. It can really irritating when things don't work like that.

About signature failure, I think you are trying to install image and not zip, which is signed and so can be installed on temporary basis. Only Galaxy S and S II have this type of cwm files in Samsung series at least. If the attached zip doesn't work, go to JKay's thread and download the temporary cwm zip or directly from clockworkmod site. Both are same.
[Galaxy S II General] iekansh:
@sahib: default recovery only lets us flash update via external sd. So, transferred it to ext sd only.

@Jim: unfortunately it did network. Same error as in the picture i have posted in my last post.
