[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedro2767:
few days ago I tried to install rom cognition but could not because when I did not get into recowery option: install zip from sdcard ... (mention that the phone had stock rom from orange romania BVKE 2)

because we did not install cognition rom, rom litening I installed v6.1 by Odin but i do not really like it. to install to install everything is ok less than the battery that goes about.

litening now put the phone I walked in and I followed the steps recowery cognition ROM to install:

-wipe cache

-wipe data / factory reset

Wipe Dalvik-cache

zip install from sdcard

it worked and has not given me any error was successfully installed

I did reboot in recovery

and pause: I appear with Samsung Galaxy S II logo and yellow triangle and so, no go there.

I tried to go and in a recowery but does not work.

I removed the battery and after I put it back and tried to get in the way recowery key combo does not work but I get stuck at the logo of Samsung ...

in a download and I go and I asked him again litening with Odin, but I really want cognition.

Maybe I need recovery version of this ROM on installation or something wrong with me.

Please a solution where I wrong or what to do.

Thank you very much.

Been using cog for a long time and always been impressed. I've stuck with 1.5.1 as it seems more complete and polished than 1.6.

Recently had battery drain, down to about 20% left by the end of the day with light/medium use. Used better battery stats to track usage but didn't reveal any issues. I has suspicions the Facebook app was staying awake when closed, so I uninstalled it and now my battery us fantastic - 75% left by the end of the day. I now just use mobileweb for Facebook.

Just thought id share in case it helps someone.

I have no idea. I never really looked into jkay before. I have no idea how jkay actually work to actually theme the GUI, nor how the AOSP theme works, either.

All I know is that's what I'm using to theme my Cog 1.6, and previously I used their v1.0 for Cog 1.5.1.

Are the samsung hubs still on this rom? they're crap :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] apkapkapk:
I've installed the JKay themes and noticed that it brings back the double-press for the home button (meaning the home button lag is back). The JKay settings also override what appears in phone options (power button menu).

Other than these "bugs" I haven't noticed anything else.

EDIT: There's an option to disable the home button double-press in the Deluxe Settings. Seems like I missed that when looking through the options.

I rolled back to 1.51. 1.6 made my phone having small "crashes".

I dont know if someone else has the same problem: "Sticky" scrolling, more battery drain and slow reactions of the system.

Now everything is fine after the full wipe and the rollback.

Is there a better kernel for cognition for battery life/signal/speed etc?

Game hub games (premium) NOT WORKING

Hi y'all, ever since i installed this rom, the game i purchased from game hub cause a FC. Has anyone found a way around this? So far i cant see any gain in this rom as its actually worse than stock in my opinion.

Gmail and Email push is still slow! What exactly has been improved???????

This was my first flash on my s2 and im starting to miss the stock rom already.:confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Phytrax:
I've been having a problem for a month or 2 now. When I unplug my phone it seems to still think it's plugged in for a while. Sometimes for a few minutes and sometimes for an hour. This can be a real pain when trying to connect to a computer for USB transfers, etc. I've tried 3 different batteries and this didn't help.

I notice a lot of times when I power the phone down it shows me a battery warning with a little temperature gauge. I'm guessing this means the battery is too hot but it will do this even with a battery that has just been inserted, even below room temperature. Sometimes this will go away after a few minutes and then I can turn on the phone. Other times I have to plug in the charger for the indicator to go away and then I can power up. I have had this problem with at least 2 ROM releases now. 1.5 and maybe 1.2.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 0355:
I know it's not a feature request thing, but I've recently tested (due to warranty repair and the need to flash old stock branded firmware) the stock XWKI8 (NEE).

I have to admit that it's incredibly polite and stable, and very battery friendly (Now I'm tensting the latest Siyah kernel and it's very good too).

If I can give my two cents here to designgears I would like to suggest him to base the new Cognition release on this XWKI8 (quite better than the last leaked ones KJ1 and KJ2).

I apologize if I dared too much.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hamtar0:
Hello!

Why did you guys removed the data on/off toggle from notification bar?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] lucasm:
Long time reader, first time poster here.

I've been using Cognition for a few releases now and I've been loving it (thanks a ton DG for your amazing work on this rom, you do a great job!).

My girlfriend broke her phone, and I am going to be giving her my S2. I'm hopefully going to be picking up the S2 LTE from Rogers next week, and am wondering if it's possible to use Cog on the LTE version of the S2 or if I'd have to wait for someone to dev something for the LTE variant.

Anyone have any idea?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] 0355:
Reviews from fans all over the Android community, and of course myself.

I've tried so many stock ROMs that I am sick of flashing right now :o

I needed to put back a carrier branded software on my phone due to warranty repair. When I got it back I started to try virtually any stock ROM I found and tested it a little bit, maybe not deeply... I agree, and I found that this stock KI8 (NEE = nordic region) is really a great one.

No stutters, no locks, no reboots, very battery friendly, really snappy (if you pass me the word). Signal seems always stronger in same areas (i.e. my home and my working place), data seems good aswell, GPS fix is reasonably fast even indoors (but to me has always been somewhat "fast" to lock, never experienced those long minutes waiting...).

Resolved a weird issue I had passing through very older firmwares (i.e. KDD or KE7) which gave a strange faint yellowish tint on the left side of the screen at lower brightness levels. Since I found this problem the first time (I really use the phone in dark rooms so I set low brightness or even minimal and this makes the thing quite visible at times) I always check it out because I found it horrible. Well with 2.3.4 KH1 Samsung says it addressed the problem that it's due to a "problematic driver" (but I really do not understand this statement as I find it too generic and somehow "smoky") but the truth is that it has not been addressed "completely" (you can check by yourself if you wish). Now with KI8 there's general convergence (and I fully agree too) that the problem has been solved for good (even at pin request during startup).

Since, I repeat, I found this weird problem quite annoying I'm really satisfied with having it completely wiped away. So I really like this 2.3.5 KI8.

My expereince, of course, not intended to offend anyone or to deny any other's.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Brujo64:
afaik Jkay build V13 for XWKI8 and for xwkj3. Would this mean that DG bring out COG on this base ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Entropy512:
The I777 release is XWKJ3-based.

Probably part of the holdup is the fact that Ninpo stopped developing his kernel tree, I haven't seen too many other good choices for replacement over here yet. Everyone else seems to have something to hide. (If you're not publishing your complete git history - you're hiding something in my opinion.)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tbong777:
Looking forward to DGs port of 777 here. Been running CheckRev 2.0 and ts a great ROM and the kitchen is nice but the new release is not in sync with the kitchen and nothing but issues. So it's stick with V2 and wait to see what DG comes up with, with Speedmod
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Entropy512:
If you want to try manually backporting it yourself, check out my Hellraiser package in the I777 forums - look at the files it replaces, and basically undo those changes by replacing those files with XWKJ3 files in DG's 777 ROM. I would advise not posting such a port without DG's permission though.

The basics are, you need to replace:

Modem

Kernel

Audio libraries

Keymap files

That's about it - everything else in Hellraiser is NFC-related.

Heheh funny... Taking a ROM that was ported from I9100 to I777, and porting it back to I9100. :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] donkeyhitman:
So true that it hurts :(...then again I can't blame DG for making I777 his priority since he owns one.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] designgears:
LOL!

You should compile your kernel for the i9100 :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] elite_gamer04:
Designgears, can we get a little confirmation from the man himself if you intend to upkeep this 'unified' ROM or should we begin to tear up haha :)?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Entropy512:
I'd need a trusted guinea pig to test... And I'm not sure if I want a horde of I9100 users in my thread asking about problems with a device I can't test on!

(Blind development = NOT something I'm a fan of.)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] apkapkapk:
I've been having some sort of random battery drain and I'm not sure if it's the rom or kernel. I've experienced it thrice already. I'm posting here instead of on the kernel pages because I've used 2 different kernels (ninphetamine 2.1.3. and Siyah 2.1.1.) with this rom and have experienced this random battery drain. Basically, my mA usage (determined using Battery Monitor Widget) goes up from the typical 30mA-60mA up to 190mA-290mA+ and stays there. Weird thing is that using CPU Spy, it shows that my phone is still in deep sleep. The only way to fix this is by removing the battery after power off. Rebooting or just simply powering off does not fix this.

Is it the rom or is it the kernel? The apps I've installed after installing Cognition should not be affecting it because even after using them, the battery drain goes back to my normal 30mA-60mA. The mA usage just suddenly spikes in the case of this battery drain.

Has anyone experienced something similar?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BelgianAtheist:
I'd like to know too, I'm really loving this solid, no nonsense rom but if it is not being maintained then I'll (reluctantly) have to look for another, breaking up is so hard to do :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ayhamx360:
sorry guys for this question but im kindda noob

right now im on ki4 and my device is on speed mode kernel rooted

so now should i just put the zip and flash it ?

or should i flash ki3 stock firmware and then flash the zip ?

thanks alot in advance :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dikime:
Just flash it, but do a wipe of data/cache first, just to be sure (and BACKUP before that :D )
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Entropy512:
Battery Monitor widget pulls those current numbers out of its ass. They can't be trusted at all.

Only reasonable test is an overnight standby idle drain measurement. Charge phone to full, reboot, reset timers in CPUSpy, then go to bed.

Drain should be around 1%/hour or less. If it's higher than this, pull /proc/wakelocks and tell us what your deep sleep percentage for the test was when you woke up.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] apkapkapk:
Thanks for the advice!

The thing is that I lost quite a bit of battery while it was in sleep. Here's what happened:

I left my phone alone and went to attend an exam. I left it alone at about 1240 and went off for the paper which begins at 1300 and ends at 1530. Usually, the battery drain is about 1% an hour and this was reflected in Battery Monitor Widget (the %, not the current. That can be trusted right?). Looking at the graph, the drain begins at about 1400 and from that point, battery drain was about ~6-10% an hour. Again, this was fixed by removing the battery.

Using BBS, it showed that nothing was waking the phone up. /= Also, in CPU Spy, my phone was in deep sleep. That's the issue with this =/

I've flashed to CheckROM Revolution to see if this happens as well and to try out a new rom. Also, I have no idea how to replicate this (though it did kick in one time overnight).

Are there Bootloaders that eliminate the use of a JIG in this version or are you using old bootloaders?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] elite_gamer04:
Quick question regarding some of the 'unified' features that aren't included in our Euro I9100 for example NFC, will this affect battery-life/settings/Force-closes since it isn't in our devices?
