yeah we get that often. i believe designgears had suggested that we use alternative browsers until the issue is fixed.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 0355:
I can't understand why on my 1.15 installation I don't feel the renowned "slugginesh" of the stock browser.

Obviously compared to Opera Mobile 11 (which I normally use) it feels a little less snappy and less preferrable for many reasons (the most important is me being accustomed to Opera since many years, on many platforms).

But if I use the stock browser isn't unusable at all.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Cuz80:
Am I the only one who gets videos recorded from this phone horizontally (ie stretched) even when they are recorded vertically?

I didn't have this problem on stock ke7.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shawn_pro:
Originally

guys from where i can get stock 2.3 theme for Cognition with CM7 battery. Really appreciated.

Thanks aly it did work.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tbong777:
NO I bought my $600 phone (used) becasue I appreciate what it is capable of. using Market apps. And $for what you get out of the box $700 is not a lot of money.

Laggy stock browsers dont bother me . I have never found a better Market app that did not solve an issue or omission that made the handset better.( I use Dolphin HD) Squeezing another hour or two out of battery life on the stock device is not important to me.....I use Juice defender Ultimate when I think I will need more than 20 hours out of a charge AND have always carried an extra battery since the N82. Problem solved,

Never even cared about the "CRT Bug" which I did not even notice till someone posted a video of it,

Expectations are very high for a a relatively inexpensive device, I think rather how MUCH I AM getting for my money rather than what's "missing or worse what can be easily fixed with a $5 app.

No.......what really amazes me is how people will pay "$700" for a phone $300+ a year for data and whine about the cost of a $2 or $5 app that will fix a problem and won't donate a dime to the site or the developer yet make demand after demand to fix silly things like the

'color" of overscroll or a different shaped battery Icon. Minutae..

FIX THE BIG THINGS like FC message apks.......(although Handcent works better and is FREE!!!!

The market will solve a lot of issues. DG will solve the important ones.

Thankfully I am not bothered by things I read regarding issues that don't bother me. But generally I am not anal about these things. I don't use covers or screen protectors. (I have yet to scratch any phone's glass carrying it in my pockets.I Tried a few protectors and they make it all mushy. Covers only prevent scratches which I don't care about for a phone I will keep maybe 18 months at most.

Hope I answered you question.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tbong777:
VERY nice I get the same results when I enable it. and don't use SETCPU FOR oc/uc Bought it but I really don't notice the difference between 1200 and 1600 in my application. uc isn't needed with Juice defender and it can be set for push as well,

Juice Defender is great for those who do not want to make make getting the best battery life a quest or hobby. I get 80% after 7 hours with JD, about 40% without,

I use 4 Pulse widgets, Go Launcher, Scanner Radio, Beautiful weather, lattitude PowerAmp Pro, 3G watchdog, Battery plotter, on the screens, Not sure how much juice they take up.

Even the develop of this ROM uses Juice Defender.....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mdmar:
Maybe not ROM-related, I dont know but:

is it possible to choose where all downloads should go? Havent seen that option in any rom on any android...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] DarkDvr:
tl;dr.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] DarkDvr:
What I'm hoping for, and I'm sure our devs are smart enough to deliver it eventually, is NO home delay, like on every other android cell phone I ever had. And, a very tiny wake up from deep-sleep delay, as it was on nexus one, SGS, etc. They had deep sleep too, yet they woke up very fast.

I understand that sgs2 has dualcore CPU, but I doubt that causes a significant lag.

Here's for not giving up and finding a solution.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] skeptic1007:
What is your JD configuration, please?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheMathMan:
Came back to this ROM after a time away.

The Sort Apps app doesn't recognize Touchwiz and i can't sort the apps A to Z.

Any fixes?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
More's to the point what is the persons usage?

I now have Juice defender ultimate now so im gonna test it out
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the_Calen:
there is a new version on the market called appzorter, this works with cog v1.31

[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheMathMan:
Excellent. Thanks!!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eeebbr:
I got this tiny issue.I'm using the 1.31.24 hours and got more than 50% on the battery.

But when I look on the call standby it says that 100% of the time I have no signal.now I figure that it takes battery because the phone keep looking for reception.anyway to fix it and save even more battery?

Also, the phone used an hour of cpu on this time Is .this normal,i used a bit of wifi internet,played a bit chess.12 mins of calls,talkbox,viper were on for the most of the time and there was a lot of titanium backup messing around with the phone core.

So, you tell me..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mickliq:
I haven't installed a new ROM in 3 days! That's the longest I've gone since the round of KG3 ROM's came out! I like stability and actually using my device instead of constantly restoring everything! I guess that's why we're not seeing a lot of increments on Cognition! It just works. Battery is not as good as some of the other ROM's but at this point I have a 2nd battery and charger so stability is #1.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Kloppy:
I am having a problem with this rom. I am developing an app and when I tried to run this app from eclipse today it would not start. At one time, adb returned "/sbin/sh: am not found" but now I dont even get an error message. The app just does not start.

Could someone try to run an app directly from eclipse so I could rule out that this is a rom issue?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tbong777:
When I use it I have data set to update 30 seconds every 5 minutes otherwise off. Usually set on "balanced" preset and aggressive if I am low on juice and don't have my battery with me. I have a ton of widgets and still get good enough battery life. IM flying to San Diego next week for a couple days and will use JD and carry extra batteries for the flights.

I am now up for 10 hours on JD and have

Android OS 48%

Maps 15

cell standby 11%

Phone Idle 8%

Display 6%

Media server 4%

FB Tweetdeck ProAmp 3% each

Ready to go t0 bed and put it on charger with 73% left....

I really don't need Juice Defender for everyday use. Normally I 'd have about 30% about now. That said I send/receive maybe 35 texts a month. Pulse takes a lot of data, Facebook, Twitter and a few gmail addresses.

I use the device more like a tablet and music player for my bike, than a communication device

Battery life is simply not an issue for me considering the power of this device.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tbong777:
Yep..It just works...You don't see the plethora of common issues on the last 5 pages you see on many ROMs....Only the same issues as on all these devices, "battery" battery battery.....LOL
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rockin_Zombie:
I have to agree with the effectiveness of juice defender. At first I was cynical as I already have SetCpu, undervolting etc etc, but installed it anyway. The level of customization avaliable in the ultimate version is amazing. It's especially effective if you don't need to be connected all the time. I have set the connection to be established every 15 minutes when the screen is off, and no connection from 2 to 7 am. Have also changed most of the minor details to my liking, there are thousands of options.but only Install it if your phn is idle more than 60% of the time like me, otherwise it will be overkill IMO.

Does the default browser in this v 1.31 lag?

Or is it fine and Hardware acceleration works ?

Is there any way to make the back/menu buttons flash as an sms notification ... that would be superglam.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] isotoper:
+1

Checked that , amazingly true ! The phone is 100% on "Time Without A Signal".

You can check it at : Settings => About phone => Battery Usage => Cell Standby.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eeebbr:
well the question is why is it like that? i keep getting calls and also making calls. maybe its just saying that :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] isotoper:
Found that :

Please share this.

Go to settings>About Phone>status....and then go back. Check the stats afterwards, you'll see the counter decreasing. it's not a serious bug. it's just a log bug.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cyrus1337:
way to go! That fact, that there's no status LED is kind of the only thing that bugs me about the SGS2. If someone could make the back/menu button do it, that would be awesome!

Yeah,it's called BLN,but isn't supported yet....ever?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
agreed i have the ultimate version, i just have it set to aggressive i haven't played around too much in the settings but it has already saved me much battery.

I'm still using 1.15 as per my tests this undoubtedly has the best battery life from 1.15 to 1.30
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ArielTM:
Hi,

First of all, Thanks for the best ROM there is for SGS2!!

I think a lot of people will really appreciate I you'll add the modded phone.apk with Call Recording...

Thanks!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Seade:
1+

And BLN would be absolutely magnificent!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mickliq:
I've moved to Dolphin since the KG3 ROM's came out and I'm happy.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tbong777:
Uh no.....I think the market offers the solution for that and a "lot of people" may not want critical system files messed with for an app that may be illegal where they live....

IF you want call recording buy it or find a free one. I use Callrecorder and its flawless. Total recalls I understand is great as well

if someone is interested I created an update.zip for OpenVPN which is posted in this thread

when dg was pushing out the updates at an amazing pace I got tired of connecting the phone for pushing my much needed openvpn binary :)

Thank you!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ignign0kt:
I just booted into the CWM recovery mode, and picked install zip or whatever option lets you choose a zip to install, and chose the cognition s2 zip file that I put on my SD card.

Had no problems
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fjankie:
Hi,

I'm getting an frustrating error when trying to flash this rom (1.04).

ClockworkMod says:

Flashing Kernel

assert failed: package_extract_file("zImage", "/tmp/zImage")

E:Error in /sdcard/Cognition_S2-104.zip

(Status 7)

Installation aborted.

Anyone have an idea what i have done wrong?

I've flashed many roms, (including previous versions of cognition) but this is the first time i got in to trouble..

The only different thing i did this time was to push the zip on the phone via ADB, but shouldnt that be ok to do?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] DvTonder:
Sounds to me like the .zip file is corrupted somehow. Try re-downloading? You can also mount the sdcard in CWM and then copy over the normal way rather than adb push.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fjankie:
Did try re-downloading, didn't work. But mounting the sdcard in CWM worked fine.. Thanx!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cigaro78:
Ok Yes, so I did that, and it worked. Only issue is that CWM is now gone and the kernel reads as 'dirtygearbox built'... not sure what that means :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ignign0kt:
Don't know what that means either.

And I didn't think much about the CWM app cause I use ROM Manager anyway
[Galaxy S II Android Development] designgears:
I was thinking about adding them back in, looks funny without them.

It's been there since v1.02

Download again, check the md5, put it on your sdcard, check the md5 again
[Galaxy S II Android Development] designgears:
AHA! I didnt remove the stings on all languages, fixing now!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cigaro78:
Eeeeeekk!!! I was about to post how much I love this ROM but unfortunately... if I connect to my PC now all I get is two unaccessible removable drives.

Anyone knows how to fix it?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Timpppa:
Awesome ROM!!! Could you add an alternative battery icon? In yours you can't see the numbers in the battery. And UOT Kitchen is more than full!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tolis626:
Hey designgears,I have to say,you made my first impression of custom roms on the SGS2 a good one.A good one indeed! :D

At first,after I installed your rom,I restored everything with Titanium,but it worked like sh*t,so I did a wipe,reflashed the rom,installed everything by hand(Damn market didn't automatically restore :mad: ) and restored only data with Titanium.Now all's well. :)

Only a couple of things though.I am really sorry if these have been asked before,but I don't have enough time to read through the whole thread. :)

Firstly,since I installed your rom,a blue loading bar appears on my splash screen(You know,the screen just after you press the power button).Not that it's a problem,I'm just wondering.

Secondly,why didn't you include any extra governors in your kernel?Interactive and Smartass(especially smartass2,aka SmoothAss) are IMO by far better than ondemand.

Third,I suppose I won't ever need Samsung Apps again eh? :p

These and...Well,congratulations pal! :)

EDIT:And a fourth one.How can I slow down the animations?I don't like them to be that fast! :)

EDIT 2:Am starting to get nooby here eh? :o Is there anything I have to be extra careful about when cooking my theme in UOT?I kinda like a different battery mod and flying animations and I used to use my own theme on my Desire HD. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ignign0kt:
Please don't haha. I like having more space even if it's minimal

I do agree about the battery icon though.. the numbers are a bit small
[Galaxy S II Android Development] designgears:
heh, I agree, I like having more space for notifications below. Maybe I will make an alt version for those that want it.

Blue bar is normal, you need to clear the custom kernel flash counter to get rid of it. To do that you need a jig, you can get them on ebay for like $5.

I will adding more the kernel later, just waiting to see what supercurio is cooking up.

The animations were an oversight on my part, I didn't mean to leave them that fast and didn't really notice because I like it :p I will put them back to default speeds in the next update.

I have never used UOT, so I have no idea :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cawithe:
Noticed that busybox wasn't installed, downloaded from market. Able to grant s/u permissions to apps again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tolis626:
I am positively surprised.It's probably the first time a dev answers all my questions himself at once,AND very fast.Bravo pal,bravo. :D

Well,you got me covered.Only things that bother me are that I have rather bad signals(phone network and wifi) and that Chainfire3D won't make Asphalt 6 appear on the market.I think I'll flash XXKE7 phone for the first one and see how it goes.I can do it normally through Odin,right?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] designgears:
ya, just grab KE7 from the download thread and flash with odin.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] designgears:
what are you using to check that? Certainly will look into it!

the clear button shows up on that bar, making it smaller will make things look ugly.

Both my home and work vpn are connecting fine.

Try to connect and then pastebin the logcat.

I got a question about the long press home button..

its nice that I can add more apps to it.. but is there an app or a mod that will keep the "go to task manager" or something like that'

i like it cause it was a quick way to kill an app if it missbehaved.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :

[Galaxy S II Android Development] antiochasylum:
yes, keep the stock task manager from samsung, and those apps you dont add, they are apps that have ran previously.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Seade:
designgears, I've tried this rom for about a day now and I have to say I like the rom, except for the batterylife I am getting. I got around 15h of on-time before it died with medium usage, despite undervolting and underclocking. Gonna see how it works out today now that it's calibrated but it doesn't look good; 26 min on battery and down to 93% with almost 1/4 awake time. Android OS is already active for almost 2 min. Coming from VR2.0 I had an uptime of over two days just the day before, so I'm thinking something is wrong...

Could you look into adding a camera.apk with tap to focus on the video mode too?

Also, I'm wondering if there is any way to deal with this Echo-issue that arises from using a TPU case by modifying the noise reduction algorithms or such, or is this outside the scope of the ROM?

Third and final question; Do I need to upgrade MODEM to XXKG3 manually or does the rom this? Cause I haven't upgraded MODEM from KG1...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AndroidGX:
Had same battery drain problem on VR 2.3, so I tried DevNull 2.3.5 from AdamG this morning, it's worse, then I'am trying this rom now, I really don't know how to get a normal battery draining, trying rom after rom but actually can't find one who keep it up good :(

About your question on the KG3 modem, it's installing automatically after flashing this rom. You can check if it's the case on phone information ;)
