Welcome back Cheta.

But u told us that after ur GS2 was burnt out that u r going to change over to another Phone.

But U got mesmerised back by GS2, isn't it?;););)
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
His SGII got Burnt?...How?...................................I remember it got burnt for charging full night right?
[Galaxy S II General] nelsonoski1972:
Exactly.U remember a lot.

I think that's why Sammy has put that irritating, ugly 'charged' notification ringtone.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
ok........Why there is no notification like that in CM9 :(
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Ignore this one
[Galaxy S II General] :
Yes. I bought the SGSII again. Checked out the note. Too big even for my big hands. Nothing to beat this phone for now.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
I don't know my unit will get burned or not but my charger will surely do. After full charging it's almost non touchable. What's the temp? +70°C for sure. Maybe it could take that much heat but I ain't sure and burning AC bills for that damn thing seems meaningless to me.

Nokia chargers never gets hot (the three pin ones), is it because the earthing pin is present or else?

PS- Can't be earthing problem. That's 100% confirmed.
[Galaxy S II General] Virtualsk:
Mine never gets hot...Check earthing first.

Impossible... If the phone heats up it stops charging on its own and you also get a notification message saying phone unable to charge cause of overheating..

Regarding that purchase issue on the Android Market... I wrote a mail to Google bout it and they said that many users are facing this issue and they are working on a fix for it... Solution is to use old market...
[Galaxy S II General] anujagg:
Guys,

I bought an application for .49 $ but my card was billed for two transactions - one for 1$ and other for .49$. Any idea what was 1$ charged for?

Sent from my S2...
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
You will get 1$ back in few days...Google does that when you add a card to make sure if it is a fake card or working one..

---------- Post added at 09:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 PM ----------

Looks like many are supporting SOPA :eek:
[Galaxy S II General] anujagg:
Sure??? Does Google charge 1$ for each transaction or only for the first one?

Also, any good apps which can be bought during this sale season? I hear about some keyboard app but not sure how better It is as compared to go keyboard app.

Sent from my S2...
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Just for once (When you add a Credit or Debit card).............I only suggest SwiftKey X Keyboard and Paper Camera .............I would say 1st try that app from Off-Market and if you like that app than buy it.

i am planning to sell my phone. it was bought on sept 7th. how much do yall think it will go for? planning on buying the note.
[Galaxy S II General] TheQuarterMile:
I bought an extra battery for 525bucks and a original Samsung external battery charger for 680 from Ebay...

Now I don't have to worry bout charging my phone for atleast 2days..

It's a must for those who use their phone alot and don't want to compromise...

[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Looks like you can mount NTFS now in Mar 09 nightly build?

So the only major thing left out is video recording right?
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I'm late........Found that and was gonna say......In thread I read this is good..
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
What I understood is some upstream changes and regional support. No major update at all. Although in this build brightness with finger swyping on status bar from left to right is disabled
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:

I was on GB for 2 days and god that was awful

BTW u have a mobile shop?:D

Now u have evo 3d?:D
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I get that much speed but not every time because they said 12Mbps....But I get around 20 Mbps..................I heard Download speed capped at 1.5Mbps only but not sure....Will check when I download a 1GB file......Mostly it will download 1 GB file in less than 30 mins..................................First buy a new battery and check it...If it worked ok if not sell it and buy new mobile (maybe SIII).........Most of us are not having you problem so might be problem in battery
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Not really! But desire S was single core and after s2 experience was feeling laggy. Replaced with Evo. By the way shopkeeper is good friend of mine.

Sahib, regarding Evo I found difficult to root it. Have you any exp with HTC???
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Latest CM9 is soooooooo smooth
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
No exp with HTC(except HD2)

I think first u need to s-off it and then u will be able to root it...
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
or a placebo effect? :p

I thought the next builds would be in the development thread. Now figured out that all those will be only in nightly pages. Missed so many builds.

So just want to confirm whether

1. MTP works

2. Video recording works (above 420p)

3. Can play videos with HW (I guess this works right?)

Sorry that I have to ask this again as I missed around 5 nightly watching the development thread.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
placebo effect? :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
No

No

Yes

and newest night is really sooooooooo smooth
[Galaxy S II General] rajarshi10:

[Galaxy S II General] iekansh:
Dude it's a Nokia memory card. I don't think that's much of a problem. Is it? Games like Samurai install on external sd on their own. Can't help it.

[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Kor means Korea FW and kies say it cannot update because you using Indian Version of Kies if you download Korean version it will show updates.
[Galaxy S II General] digi_fort:
You are already on the best firmware till date as per me KH3 is the most stable firmware i have used. :D

Yes KIES says this because the firmware you've upgraded does not belong to India. It is a Korean update KOR simply means you are using the firmware customized for Korea or a Korean CSC.
[Galaxy S II General] farhan032:

I don't see /emmc/ even when I try with Airdroid... where exactly is it? Mine only shows ext_sd folder & when I click on it, its empty :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Use root explorer or FX Explorer or ES File explorer
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Use root explorer

when u see all

emmc/

system/

data/

sdcard/

etc..

then click on emmc
[Galaxy S II General] rajarshi10:
And cn I copy files to external sd using those apps?
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
It means you just feel that it's there but actually it's not there. For example bravia engine by checkrom and beats audio for galaxy s2.

You mean vertumus theme? Oh I haven't checked it out yet. But frankly I got bored with the blue theme :p

Thank you.

Just a general question. Can you all share as to under what resolution you take the video in GS2? I take at 720p as 1080p is too much and takes a lot of size.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
ok.........................Till now I have not recorded any video with SII..............Any answer to my question?How to change lockscreen wallpaper in CM9........................................OT: F*** this New TV censor rules...There is no entertainment in movies now F*** that board :mad: :mad: ....Watching one of my fav movie but it got many censors (scenes removed) = not able to enjoy much
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
720p when on stock..
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
If not settings then through gallery?

Yes you can. Try the FX file explorer. It's the best I have seen tilldate. Nice interface.
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Wallpaper will be the same on both lockscreen and home
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Okay. But just 1 minute of 720p will take up 100 mb :p

What about others?
[Galaxy S II General] emze:
depends on what you want to do with that video. i prefer watching them on my HDTV, so i take videos that are no less than 720p if i need to zoom while recording(although, now a days, i use only 1080p). the videos i have uploaded to youtube are also 1080P(except one or two that are 720). one video that was 4 min long was half a gig. but is till uploaded it.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
There is no option for lockscreen wallpaper

so no option in ICS/CM9 like GB roms?

Yesterday I was sending some files (Songs) to a nokia mobile.I was not able to select all the files I want and click send via Bluetooth why? Tried with all types of File managers I have nothing worked so selected each file and send it and when it is done select another and send it...Why?
[Galaxy S II General] emze:
so, you guys are saying that CM9 gives more than 1 day battery eh? hmm. but then the video recording in CM(at least CM7) wasn't that good. if the battery life and video recording is as good as stock and the battery life is better, i'd love to go CM.

please confirm the above. those who are using/used CM9.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Video recording is not working...They need ICS kernel source code to make it work
[Galaxy S II General] emze:
so, that means, no emze ain't gonna use CM for a while. boo hoo!

thank you ravi. you saved me some bandwidth and time :)
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
See CM is like stock google android with its own tweaks and customization options

Now 2.3 was visually looking bad and camera quality was bad

Now 4.0 is much more refined and looks great and camera quality is improved greatly compared to cm7 which was really bad camera quality wise...

and about battery,stock android is much lighter that touchwiz and have less background services...

Comparing battery life now is not good because media process eats battery in cm9 and that will be fixed after kernel sources or if xplowild kernel is ready before samsung kernel sources release
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
You're welcome............................................Before selling your mobile buy a new battery and test it for some days if still same problem than sell it.
[Galaxy S II General] emze:
naah dude. i am not selling it because of the battery. i just want to shift to a different device.

i see your point dude. thank you for your reply :)

[Galaxy S II General] rajarshi10:
How to turn background data off or notifications from messengers such as facebook on CM9 ??????
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Kernel sources are just like raw vegetables,every cook makes them by adding their own ingredients(like governors,schedulers,overclock)

And here Samsung is the farmer of it that have raw vegetables and made food from it(SamMobile stole that food and distributed it)

So u can only modify the cooked food by adding salt or pepper(like codeworkx have done to Samsung ics kernel only added some cm9 compatibility and gokan have added some features only)

If food tastes bad after cooking then we can't make it taste good,the only solution is to make it again from raw vegetables(So we need the vegetables i.e. kernel sources from Samsung to make a kernel that meets CM9 requirements and to add oc,governors,etc and fix video recording and stuff)

On the other hand XpLoDWilD have made a CM9 kernel(now here he is the farmer who is offering raw vegetables now) but stuff is not working in kernel now and have to be solved

I don't know about him. But Gokhanmoral provided magic for GB roms. We can expect his magic for ICS too. You see maintaining the project is not easy job. We know Gokhanmoral is famous for his update flood :)
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
The meaning of my post was that it isn't full siyah kernel

because almost features cannot be implemented without kernel sources and its just a small preview now...

I think Check Rom V6 is based on Italian stock Rom 2.3.6 XWLA1, if you feeling slow connection you need Modem file rather than CSC.
