If you downloaded your firmware from SamMobile then you won't be able to reset your binary with the jig.. It's cause they have an updated bootloader whereas if you get them from xda you can reset it with the jig as they have a old bootloader...

And bootloader version doesn't really matter...
[Galaxy S II General] sriharsha_m:
Working for me
[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
SO, if i use KIES to update this. Then where would i get old bootloader?
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Today morning i rested binary counter with the jig on 2.3.6. No problem at all
[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
You had the new bootloader on 2.3.6, or the old one?

Did u update via KIES?
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
I didn't checked boot loader. I downloaded the firmware KL1 from Sammobile and flashed it over CM9 with odin on pc. To reset the binary I just used it and done. Even before I used that jig on Check Rom with 2.3.5 it always works
[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
Okay, mate..Thx for the input.
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:

U know i hated the Airtel Broadband's FUP, so i got a spectranet connection.

Now i have no FUP, but i get only 2mbps in day, and 4mbps in night.

So, m waiting for the night to come.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
After 7pm or 10pm?
[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
I get 4mbps from 9PM to 6AM
[Galaxy S II General] ano.cresent:
are you sure there's no FUP limit .... I would like that as my bandwidth usage on airtel brdbnd normally goes beyond 60 gigs a month :o
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:

[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
Yes, i am 110% sure, it has no FUP.

I download a lot of tv shows. And normally bandwidth exceeds 60 gb. I applied for spectranet, only because it had No bandwidth limit, or FUP. Also the upload speed is 2mbps.

+Its prepaid, and cheap.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
oh Nice....
[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
I watch so many shows,and download,so 60 gigs is quite normal usage.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I reach only 15-20GB per month.It will be more but after 10GB my net speed will go down DAM YOU TATA PHOTON

Just now received my Jig, also got back my phone from service, so I flashed CF root via Odin, which increased the counter to 1. I popped in the jig and voila custom binary is back to 0(NO) :D
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
What is the cost per month and They provide Net through Ethernet cable? I want it through USB hope they have that plan in itand GUYS I THINK WE ARE TALKING ABOUT OFFTOPIC..This might give warning?

I want to watch Online tv series but because of slow speed it takes a lot of time to load and Waiting = I become mad :p

I have wifi connection with 1699 plan.I don't think they have USB broadband plans.

If u want to start something try watching "the mentalist". Its awesome.

[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
Whoa, thats quite costly, i think.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:

Ya it is...Every Net Provider who provides through USB have almost same price
[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
Yeah, i know. Thats because they provide internet with mobility. You can't carry a wired or wifi broadband connection around.

[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
45GB in 1 month or total 45GB till now from the day you using?

Ok

45gb till now, still few days to go and I don't download much nowadays. Earlier I use to download 100+ gbs.

[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Im the topper with 150+ GB :D

Btw ,id recommend you to try custom roms. as you have less time for mobile things you can try criskelo which is a pre cooked rom and also nice.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
It's the file you'll get if you download ROM via Checkfus Downloader. Anyway, figured it out, you just have to wait till download finish and keep Checkfus on in Advanced tab, and it will decrypt the file automatically to .zip one, but if you close it then I don't know!

About that bandwith topic you guys are discussing, I download normally 150+ GB per month, last year, only for two months it crossed 215 GB.

I won't say what my plan is, because it's a fault of my ISP, and I gladly take it, I get 8X speed than what I should get, if you have simple knowledge then you know what ISP it could be ;)

PS- This Mobile Odin Pro is terrific, flashed KL1 without a glitch, Root sustained, no more Binary increase, brilliant, I will definitely buy it next month.

[Galaxy S II General] karan999:
Good to hear that.

People have reported positive on the battery % mod i have posted.Its working absolutely fine.

see here

.

@All,

Is anybody facing weak audio in headsets ? i have searched forums and many people have reported the same.

Unfortunately, the GS II lacks hardware capabilities for a

Voodoo Driver

.That would have really made a difference.

Im using Power Amp and after playing alot with the equilizer settings i still din get the clear bass i used to get on my htc cellphones.

I found a useful post

here

that increased the volume clearity a bit.

But no bass at all.

Im using my Sony XBS in ear headphones and they sound satisfactory but not excellent.

When i plug in my Sony MDR V700 DJ headphones, the audio quality is so weak, that even the treble sounds horrible.Same headphones with my HTC P3400i or the HD2 produced extra ordinary bass,crisp highs n lows.

Do share your Audio equalizer settings and also the best audio player app you may recommend.

Samsung has seriously let down the audio on this device.sometimes i feel, i would have got a Sensation.eagerly waiting for a fix.

Regards,

karan.
[Galaxy S II General] TheMegastar:
I'm sure it must be working great, Karan. But I would recommend people to choose their own mods as per their taste. After all, the whole idea behind going to the kitchen is to personalize your phone. I wish there was some way of saving the themes in our phone so that we could switch between themes whenever we wished. Right now, if you want a new mod, then you have to lose the previous ones. Have given this suggestion to Mendoza.

Cheers & Happy Independence day to all Indians!
[Galaxy S II General] karan999:
i havent tried it on my own, but i guess, Titanium Backup can help you here.give it a try.

@All,

Anyone interested to work on the Audio output of this phone ? my headsets are strugling to punch out some bass.

Regards.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
What is your headset? If it is the stock one then don't expect any good from it. A good headphone will do much better.

Also the stock music player isn't that good. You need to have Rock plus Bass Enhancement on to get max bass. PowerAMP is a good alternative I think.

Hi Guys,

My S2 is all of a sudden displaying my network is in Roaming (Displays an R on top of the Network Signal indicator) even when i am in my Home Circle (Bangalore). i am not sure if it is a Vodafone issue or it is some issue with the Phone.

Anyone has any ideas about this?
[Galaxy S II General] karan999:
if you read my earlier post, i have replied regarding the performance of my Sony MDR V700 DJ headphones.And the sound quality is very poor.

Also i use Sony XBS in ear headphones which are well known for their bass.

i used to get amazing bass and sound clearity in my htc headphones i used earlier.

i am using power amp with volume +.So far, the treble has improved, but the bass is still low in comparision to what HTC delivers.

Regards.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Sorry, I didn't read it before.

I used my XB300 with GSII, I was more or less impressed, with the Stock player. But I don't use it as my primary music player, my old W850i still does the job for me, and I also am a bass crazy listener, so Mega Bass™ is the best for me. You actually just can't compare the sound of Samsung with other devices, I never liked any Sammy for audio quality, same went with I8910, S8500 and now I9100.

It's related to some hardware drivers, so boosting audio and putting some additional software won't work if you don't have the capable hardware for it.

Regards.

Galaxy S2 questions

I have the Galaxy S2 for a week now,its great but i had a few questions:

1.The phone(area near the camera)heats up when playing HD games or loading long webpages.Is this normal or is it some fault?

2.I wanted to apply an Antifingerprint scratchgard screen protector to it.Has anybody used it till now?Does it make the screen dull to look at?

3.Is there Coverflow available in the Music player or any other app which will provide it?

4. when is the update 2.3.4 expected in India?

even my GS II heats up while playing HD games.really disappointed with this.Next time will never buy Samsung untill it provides us greate hardware quality like HTC or Nokia.

I am using an antifingerprint scratchgaurd.it doesnt make the screen dull and is a must for this phone.

the update will be released soon.hopefully by the coming month.

[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
actually there is no need to include sd card when you do a full wipe. if you need to clear your sd card data you simply delete the unwanted folders and data. your gamedata will be in "android" or "gameloft" folder.

Btw: guys is there a limit for thanks everyday? if so how much? never knew about this :D
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
And other personal files. Also note that free games download the data and store it under sdcard/android folder. For example Blood and glory, shadow gun. Be sure to backup those game data folder too :)
