[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Ok..... I was mad that they changed..... Because don't have much in external.... Thanks uncle :)

[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Delete backups taken from older cm9 recovery and retake them everything will be fine

For now don't use siyah because it will break wifi and other stuff

EDIT: recovery is now correct in cm9 and siyah is also fixed but not yet released

Hi,

I've been reading up bigtime but there are certain things i want explained. What is a PIT file ? Why do we not select pit file when flashing means what happenes when we do select it ? What are odexed and deodexed roms ? which is better ?
[Galaxy S II General] digi_fort:
PIT file is nothing but a partition file which is released only when changes in the partition tables (kernel / recovery) are made. I have never used this. The i believe was released alot when SG1 ROM was released since it followed the 3 file release architecture.

In correct PIT file selection may endup screwing your flash of a new firmware or phone entirely itself. Remember the phone is near unbrickable not unbrickable.

Deodexed ROMs have their .apk's (which are basically the application packages) repackaged in a certain way. An "odex" can be thought of as a collection of parts of applications that have been pulled out and optimized before booting. This speeds up the boot process - in a way, it preloads part of the applications - but it also makes hacking those apps difficult because part of the original code is already extracted somewhere else.

Deodexing is just a process of putting those pieces back into the original applications. It takes a while to extract those parts and build the .dex cache (aka Dalvik cache), but only because the relevant parts aren't in an easy-to-access place for the system. The advantage of this is that an app can be modified effectively and the developer doesn't have to worry about conflicts from the separate odex part of the code.

So, short version: "Deodexed" ROMs have all their apps put back together. If an app can be themed, for example, a deodexed version of that app will not get messed up when the modified .apk tries to mesh with the odex of the original un-modified .apk. Because it's not there.

If you want an aftermarket theme, you need a deodexed ROM. I'm not sure if deodexing can be done to individual apps within a non-deodexed ROM.

The developer concencus shows they prefer "deodexed" ROMs heavily. Then again it depends on what you like or prefer.

Is it just me or Vodafone giving E (Edge speed) to people who activated 1GB offer?
[Galaxy S II General] coolbuddyin:
Mee too having same problem since yesterday evening. Its unable to connect to Vodafone IN network of Idea network. SG2 saying Sim is not allowed to work this network. But the 1gb plan is still active on Vodafone edge network

Before activation of vodafone 1gb offer,i was on 3g on the go plan,it seems they change to Vodafone Egde, Looks like i need to fight with dumb voda cc fellows

I'm from andhra pradesh too.

Anyone having similar issue in andhra pradesh or in other circles?

Vodafone is playing some cheat here.

I have other vodafone sim ,in which 375rs 3g plan is working fine
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:

[Galaxy S II General] devvfata1ity:
Hey guys I got myself a SGSII on 9th of October. Needless to say its a great phone. I was coming from a Desire HD and still I was blown away. Overall I absolutely love the phone.

However there is a lingering doubt in my mind that is driving me crazy. Plz clear my doubt so that I can breathe easy.

Here goes:

1) The SAMOLED+ screen is gorgeous but the whites are not pure. My phone has a warmer color tone & shows whites which are slightly yellowish I guess, whereas on my friend's SGSII, the screen shows whites that are slightly bluish in hue ??

Now when viewing the screen at any angle except head on, a very visible blue tint is cast on the display. I have seen my friend's SGSII have this too although in his case its not too jarring as his screen is slightly bluish by default.

Is this normal or do I have a faulty display?

2) On the second day my phone started switching off randomly 6-7 times a day while in pocket and also while lying on a table. I had kept power saver mode on. Now after searching xda and other places I came across a solution & I did as was recommended ie took out the battery & cleaned the contacts & then re-inserted the battery. Also I disabled power saver.

Now I havent had any shutdowns since the last couple of days.

So should I be worried or it was just power saver mode messing up my handset?

Plz answer the queries so that I can be relieved and enjoy my device. :)
[Galaxy S II General] netcitizen:
the vodafone 3g offer is gone or something. worked fine for 2 months. now its not active. And in pay as you go they are draining balance at the rate of 1Rs per 10kb instead of 10P. mailed and called them now use.

---------- Post added at 02:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 PM ----------

uses the old bootloader. in any case its not really official. its a leaked rom but stock.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
I won't say lot about the display but frankly coming from S8500 I don't like the display that much. Yes, the Whites aren't as pure as S-AMOLED. You have to stay above 20% to get rid of the Yellowish tint I'd say.

But your 2nd problem is definitely weird and shouldn't be there. Using the device for 4 months now, never had a single restart. It could be a firmware issue anyway.
[Galaxy S II General] devvfata1ity:
Actually 30 mins ago I compared my SGSII's display with a couple of my friends. My observations are:

a) My display looks much better than the other two SGSII as the whites & grays are more neutral and less bluish.

b) All the three SGSII shows bluish hue when viewed at an angle :)

c) Subjectively I find the brightness more on the other SGSII but this may be because they are running a cooler color temperature.

Regarding the second issue, my phone never restarted it actually switched off and stayed off till I switched it on again.

Actually one should be emmc and the other should be sdcard when mounted.
