disabling fast dormancy gives better battery life, are you sure indian carriers support "fast dormancy" i dont think so. Considering the speed we are getting the improvement we get with that enabled is going to be negligible, so better disable it for some good battery life.

dsp manager /equalizer or both same regarding sound effect both exploiting the new audio api from android 2.3 . using any one of this will give some extra sound effect.

also note the latest builds of player pro and poweramp already incorporates these sound effects inside it.

[Galaxy S II General] vibes1234:
thanks a lot bala-gamer

i wonder if we can somehow pressurise samsung to release an official version asap, so that people like me could avoid having to go through such extra measures. ;-)

especially when it's available in other countries (i read somewhere that 2.3.7 is also out) and also when lower end models in india (galaxy y) are coming pre-loaded with 2.3.5...?

strange...!!
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
We cant do anything regarding update unless they release it. To take on the positive side, we are here on XDA once we read enough here for a week, im sure we are always going to get the best and latest (always a step ahead of the official regional firmware) firmware from here. so we will be running the latest mods roms unlike regional firmwares.

you can flash it asusual, download the file ,copy to sdcard, flash it via cwm.

if you are on checkrom, dont forget to flash stock theme before flashing this.

[Galaxy S II General] vibes1234:
hmmmmmmm. true.

hey bala-gamer,

another quick question btw.

normally, after extraction, i get to see the md5 files (i have the XWKE8 ROM downloaded from samfirmware)

but in the case of XWKF3, the .7z file has extracted .bin files called ""boot", "modem" and "sbl"

is there anything special about it? do i need to consider something which might be missed out?

thanks...
[Galaxy S II General] emze:
Hey, any ics reviews? I got the flashing file from a friend. Considering it. I was told 3g does not work. Only edge.
[Galaxy S II General] atulalvenkar:
Am pretty sure about it, it's supported by Idea and Airtel in hyd atleast.You can find out for yourself.

Put your device in 3G mode, it should show H or H+ icons on the status bar.If fast dormancy is available the H/H+ icons will shift to 3G icon when data is not being transferred, if you start a browser session or open market it will switch back to H/H+. Thats fast dormancy.Fast dormancy has nothing to do with speed but with protocol i.e switching to UMTS(3G) when data is not being transferred instead of HSPA(H/H+) to conserve battery life as 3G mode consumes very very less battery compared to HSPA.
[Galaxy S II General] Raven'sSight:
BOOTLOOP :(

tried twice with CWM5. same result both time.

'The application status bar has stopped working unexpectedly'

and restarts !!!!

Guess gotta flash KK5/KL1 again and root again for Siyah 2.5.1 :( ...

Any idea why its happening? for ICS Domiation
[Galaxy S II General] mrcreativity:
You shouldn't be sharing wares. The mods will lock the thread. I also noticed someone shared the GTA apk. Don't download it, buy the games. It's only 300 rupees.

On a different note, I'm kinda disappointed with the siyah kernel. Phone felt a little laggy and battery life didn't improve. Infact battery percentages were all over the place. Phone got hotter faster and usb kept crashing. Back to CF root now.
[Galaxy S II General] atulalvenkar:
+1 Please buy games/apps. How much is 300 rupees compared to cost of our phone. Buying apps will encourage more devs to come up with innovative apps.If a dev sees his/her app being pirated they will loose all motivation to develop.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Sharing apk link openly is illegal but they didn't said about movies.......any way guys please remove links
[Galaxy S II General] mrcreativity:
Any thing illegal is prohibited. Movies, music, apps and anything with copyright.
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
you have missed a point between enabling and disabling fast dormancy

enable fast dormancy -> will fall back to 3g from H in a very short time.

So once you want the data back, the mobile has to renegotiate with the the network for data transfer, which consumes more battery.

disable fast dormancy -> will take more time to fall back to 3g.

As the threshold time is long when disable, mobile has to reneogtiate with network fewer times, so some increase in battery life + no drop in speed.

Id like to hear from you reagarding this
[Galaxy S II General] Raven'sSight:

My experience is otherwise, I owned an Optimus One before SII which didn't have fast dormancy(confirmed by sending mail to LG tech team). It would never fall back to 3G from H. Battery would be dead in 6 hours. If I kept it on 2G it would last for about 1.5 days.

In our s2 even after disabling fast dormancy the network will fall back to 3g, the difference is it will take much longer to fall back to 3g whereas when fast dormancy is enabled it will fall back sooner.

We've got a Leak which has almost everything (except RIL, Kernel sources)

We got camera working,bluetooth,wifi,3g(Using KP2), almost everything to make it fully functional.

However, the RIL works on few and doesn't work on others.

To be honest, we are way ahead in terms of functionality compared to other devices due the the leak. But the sad part, we don't have working beta. It's crazy but we gotta deal with that.

TBH, I'm loosing interest over CM9 and I'm glad we're atleast getting sammys sometime in JAN which works as promised. (Samsung has done a very good job in terms of software. I'm coming from Sony Ericsson (Now sony) which deals their clients like #shyte (Excuse my language). I've been with all the initial development and people parting their ways but there's no point of not releasing something even after so many functionality working.I know that CM's first rule is no ETA (Neither Am I asking for one) but seriously?
[Galaxy S II General] virani_joush:
@neo.. Yah dude.. This is perfectly crazy.. If they have working everything atleast not cm9 but an aosp rom Should be released.. Don't getting why are they keeping as just waiting...!!

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II General] h3llboy911:
They have a pretty good reason of not releasing their incomplete work as their work has been stolen twice and leaked with another guy releasing it as his own work.

Secondly, phone calls is what makes a phone, and we have a very unstable RIL. In the older RIL, data doesn't work and in the newer one, half of the sim cards are not detected + when detected NITZ crashes the RIL. The most basic thing that needs to work perfectly is Phone Calls/Messeging/Network Connectivity/ 2G/3G data, and when it gets fixed, we can expect a Beta!!

SGS2 is my primary phone, just like most of the people. They want to release a more usable version.
