Guys, I have got the app set CPU installed. Can anybody give me info as to how do I use it?

secondly, I am on Indian ics with siyah beta 3. My phone heats up behind the camera regularly ever since I got ICS installed.

I tried going back to.gb but I am just not able to tolerate gb after using ics. Please help
[Galaxy S II General] unease:
The fix I found for this was to uninstall ans reinstall Samsung USB drivers and after that go ahead and install Google Drivers. It can be downloaded from Android SDK> Extra> Google Drivers. And voila!

Here is the link:http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html

Guys, I see a lot of ICS roms in Dev section.

How's CM VS Stock ICS modified roms? Which rom do you feel it's better?

Btw, I read about the siyah but new versions are poping up faster, can anyone get me to speed and let me know if it's good to go with CM or wait?

Thanks!

Nothing is Rock stable as of now.

People here flashing a Rom on a day and posting its bugs other day..

People here made up their mind to flash something regularly..

Now it depends What you think, flash something or wait for stable one....
[Galaxy S II General] Neo.:
^^@KK : Thanks man. I do really use my phone. It's not a gaming machine entirely to keep changing roms every day. I'm using CM9 (march 3rd version). However, since kernel sources are out. The battery life is 'really' bad in the old versions. MTP broken. (I know that it has been fixed in latest build)

BUT, I would prefer to wait for Siyah + CM9. Hopefully not too late! :(

It's been awhile and still no stable ICS ROM is available...

-No. Jkay Mod support yet

-No proper custom ICS ROMS as the stable GB ROMS like CheckROM, Criskelo.. Etc.

-CM9 development seems to have slowed down and hit the wall don't blame anyone... The developers are doing their best but it's Samsung's proprietary Source code that is causing the problem

*correct me if I'm wrong..
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
thought there was no problem but there is.......can't see the icon to answer when getting calls...............DAMN me clicked backup instead of restore :rolleyes: ...can't stop it in middle right?
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:

[Galaxy S II General] Virtualsk:
Transition animation lags...to be more precise @Bala...in that case, Trebuchet is awesome. (:
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
surely you need to be corrected :D

spike ics with siyah3 beta 4 or 5 is absolutely perfect. not a single problem. Things will be tweaked further in coming days.

cm9 is progressing well too except one or two probs
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
backup is done...............Ya...I would have not know that if my sister didn't call me(I will say thanks to her but she will not understand why)
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
not the transition animations, but the delay in triggering transition animations.

trebuchet awesome? man i cant see them going past beyond v 0.1 :D and also missing many options when compared to apex or nova
[Galaxy S II General] Virtualsk:
Well, You have to admin that the guy behind trebuchet launcher is a school boy. (Correct me if i am wrong)...besides, real deal will come with stable CM9. Sure, other launcher have lot of features and customization ... If you look at progress of this guy, He is also doing but he shares something when he feels its ready .. moreover, its not even released by CM9 team officially.

Overall, I think smoothness is better then rest of it.

Not sure about his age(though he is pretty professional with his behavior unlike netchip :P ) but he is a great developer. I know him since a couple of years as we both had the galaxy spica, which had its dedicated forum where I was the moderator. He has also helped team hacksung fix many issues with the CM9 and I would always see him available on IRC along with Codeworkx and xPlodWild. I am sure Trebuchet is going to be great, it's just that may be he is not releasing stuff before its ready.
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Okay so here it is: I hate Google chrome in my mobile. It's just so dumb! Wherever I try to open a link from another application say twitter, it will NOT open the link in new tab at all. It just has to open in the existing tab itself each and every miserable time of its existence! Even after I have opened tens of new tab it will have to open the new link from another app in the tab where there is already a Page loaded. Can't the developer just understand why is there even a tabbed browser for? Just to use the same tab again and again?

And also I can't understand why the browser cannot make out the perma link of play store like other browsers do. It will just have to open a Web Page of play store instead of the play store app! Wasn't it Google who created this app? Man I hate Google chrome.

Okay. Was bit irritated.

@bala

How can you like spike? No people app. The call app(phone.apk i suppose) is also old. Not everything is new there. That's why I went for resurrection but then it's too complicated. Flash this and then that then this..blahh.. Now if you need blah blah then do blah and flash this then you can successfully flash that.

I'm actually looking for a nice rom. The CM9 after 18th march give bad scrolling. IDK why but I hate the scrolling. Sometimes it even bounces back while scrolling pages. Which rom are you guys using?
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
The swipe gestures are awesome and very fast browser

Only two cons

1.No flash support(never going to happen)

2.That play store linking thing and also for videos
[Galaxy S II General] sankar24:
Is anyone aware of any ICS rom which can record calls. I tried some which said call rec but at present I am using REVO HD gb ver 6 with total recall which does an admirable job of auto recording calls. Would like to see an equivalent in ICS ROM . Thanks for anyone who can help.

OMFG!!!!! Just cant believe, some guy posted the aosp package for spike pure ics 7.1 and now there is the people apk and the next best thing the dialer is multi dpi!!!!

The aosp package for spike 7.1 has the following

ics messaging

ics people app

ics dialer

ics calender

here is the link to make spike ics 7.1 more like pure aosp

You mean remix ROM? It's not that complicated when you have flashed an CM9. The steps are same as CM9. It's just that he hasn't used proper English. Just read them once more if you plan on trying. You might as well try the CM9 20th March build. The link which I have posted above.

Yes swipe one is good. And it's faster than ICS browser. But I wish that tabbing bug wasn't there as I tend to open tens of links at a time and read them one by one.

Problem connecting with KIES

Hey guys,

I have the same bugging problem which i am seeing lot of ppl having, but have not found a solution to the problem..

I installed latest version of KIES last night, but the same old prob persists

1)my SGS2 doznt connect wid kies, it only shows the rotating icon(connecting...) forever but doesnt connect..i have tried leaving it for long times widout it bearing fruit. the phone works in USB mode normally.

2)USB debugging mode is TICKED OFF.so tht is not the prob.

3) Software UPDATE option in settings doznt connect to the server

also,wen kies finished installing, it gave me tht some drivers dint install..

my phone's MTP drivers hv got installed, thts y USB mode is working.

what shud i do? we may hv an update coming soon, and i want my device to get updates too...

but both kies n device updates r nt working.

can someone give me an opinion and any link tht may help?
[Galaxy S II General] digi_fort:
Samsung cable drivers usually install with KIES. Try uninstalling KIES and re installing it (ensure setup is the only process running at that time). This worked for me. Also there is a link in the forum which leads to the latest download of KIES use that.

ICS on Samsung Nexus S

Is it just me or the thread becoming really inactive :D

Offtopic:

Apparently some guy bought a Nexus S from ebay and it came with ICS pre-loaded "accidentally" nope that's not the best part :D the best part is that when he uploaded a video of his device running ICS on engageit.com his phone got locked down from OTA. Now it only shows Google and a Locked icon when he tries to run it. People have been after his life to dump the OS but till today morning he was'nt able to break it.

Sad i do too, turns out it was one of the employee's phone which got stolen or something. When google got to know they did a REMOTE WIPE of the /system folder. It also had some advanced features and the authenticity of the firmware was authenticated by an XDA Developer they managed to port out a part of the ROM but not the complete thing. They said it had an applet which allowed google to access the phone OTA and do the wipe.

[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
ya scrolling is good by default, you can either tweak it manually or use siyah betas to make it more smoother
[Galaxy S II General] iekansh:
The new tapatalk update could do that I guess! When i uploaded it gave me two options but I don't remember what.

Also, spike installation is complicated man! It is.

@bala

I want scrolling like GB, how to do it? :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
whats complicated in it? its the same old method "flash via cwm"

to get good scrolling install dxlp7 rom, flash the XXLPH scrolling files a few pages back (or from the one in main thread "get lp7 scrolling in lpq") and install siyah 3 betas.

now your scrolling will be good.
[Galaxy S II General] emze:
guys, some help here please?
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
install siyah3 beta 4, it is good and stable. it should solve your heating problems due to deep sleep in beta 3

beta5 dont have recovery, so dont flash that.

set cpu is used to tweak the cpu threshold parameters, scheduler,governor , overclock.

you can change scheduler and governor in siyah 3 as of now OC is unstable as of now.

id suggest you to use extweaks developed by both XAn(voltage control dev) and gokhanmoral which is much easier than set cpu.

extweaks is available in play store
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:

Check 'Vibrate and ring' in sound settings, if you haven't.

I'm on cm9. I have checked under sound settings and still no vibrate when I get message. During incoming call I get though. In DXLP7 also I used to not get vibration for messages :(

Works good upto 160 dpi , (havent went below that value). changing dpi wont screw you anything especially on spike as most of the apps there seems to be multi dpi.

flash siayh3 beta4, its working nice, beta5 is good too but its missing the recovery, so if you know how to flash recovery again you can go for beta5 (best at the moment)

Edit: One last question and I'm off. Chrome is all smooth on this?
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
use lcd density modder fro playstore, in case if it doent works , do the following

1. install root explorer

2. open system\build.prop

3. search for "ro.sf.lcd_density=240"

4. change 240 to 160

5. save and restart.

Now you will get 160 dpi

the same method can be used to switch to any dpi.

havent used chrome that much, will report that tomorrow
