Hi DG

I understand about getting a prior firmware patch on the BT and wifi and I see from a test in a spreadsheet someone did that ke7 has one of the best radios, BUT I would rather see a KG2, since 1.15 and 1.13 are so damn good, I PERSONALLY can wait.

What have the other ROM chefs done to get their BT and wifi working?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] schrickm5:
Am trying out the Mirage kernel, have had this kernel since around midnight, crashed once, battery was 90 before bed, 86 when I woke, but I saw Drop of around 3%, at the time it crashed, around 3am. Will keep you posted it has basically more steps for uv,oc and goes to 1.6ghz.....if you ever need it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] m0rtiis:
I would think the objective is a kernel that doesn't crash at all. ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tenretni elibom:
In installed Go Keyboard and it's great. First time typing with it was faster than I've ever typed on any other keyboard :D

I would have but I'm not going to pay €4,50 for something as basic as a keyboard :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] geistteufel:
The cfroot kernel is stable.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] js931:
hi designgears! first off: thanks for this great ROM, its the best SGS2 ROM atm!

i have 2 problems with the current ROM version (1.15):

1. Adobe Flash crashes every time i want to watch a video in dolphin browser.

2. Sometimes, the data connection has a good signal, but i cant get a connection to anything...After a few minutes it goes away, sometimes i have to restart the phone to make it work again.

I flashed 1.13 WITH wipe and 1.15 without wipe over the 1.13 version. I know, many people will write "do a wipe and report back", but i think that not much has changed between 1.13 & 1.15 (certainly not the radio oder flash).

Has anyone experienced similar issues?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tangiers:
Whilst there could be many reasons for this, I'm not sure it is the ROM. I've had the same issue with other phones and 3G data over the years. You have a full signal but you can't load any page on the web. If you disable the radio (put it into airplane mode) and renable the radio, data is restored. It's as if the radio/modem gets stuck and unless it renegotiates a connection with a tower, it will stay like that.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chris2busy:
1) uninstal flash from titanium backup and then download it from market..it will work 100%..

2)try another browser to see if you can reproduce the issue there too..if you can't , then simply try wiping dolphin's data from settings>apps>manage apps>dolphin hd>clear data
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chris2busy:
I gotta say, kg2 seems to be a very promising firmware..can't wait to try it out..and the thought of properly working hw accelerated browser got me excited as well..maybe you could upload an odexed kg2 for us DG? it won't be much effort, as it will not have any framework tweaks to be re-applied..you can even upload it to dropbox so you dont tax your own server..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fosseperme:
Hi i have two problems with version 1.15

1)In the browser (browser stock and dolphin HD), in many web pages scrolling not work.

2) phone often crash, reboot and go in safe mode.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ragflan:
Running 1.15. I have tried /data/local and /system/media but custom bootanimation results in a black screen. Searched the thread and a few people have mentioned it and designgears said he'll address it so I checked changelog (1.15 shows custom bootanim support).

Anyone that's got it working have any advice?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
Indeed me as well.

What is the story as regards the updated CWM, how can i get the updated App?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nobnut:
If by CWM you mean recovery, it isn't an app. If you mean Chainfire's CWM app, you will have to flash one of his kernels.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
yeah Chainfires app it is...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nobnut:
Flash his kernel then.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
before i do has anyone else flashed chainfires latest kernel and if so is there any noticeable difference at all?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] schrickm5:
Obvious.

That's why I switched back to our friendly minty Cognition kernel that came with 1.15.

I was either not setting up Mirage properly, or don't have the patience......or 1.15 is just one of the best all round Roms you can get right now.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tallica55:
Is the wifi/bluetooth issue you're talking about only in 1.15 or already in 1.13?

And what exactly is it? I noticed, that my wifi stops a few minutes after I turned it on, and the phone uses 3G then. Is this the issue you're talking about?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] js931:
well...i experienced this with KG1 as well (Cognition 1.15)!

sometimes it takes 5-10 minutes to get a mobile connection back, even though the signal is good! only waiting and/or restarting helps!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] darksideHELL:
That's a great idea, if you mean to use samungs official releases for "stable" and the leaks for "beta" Versions.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bswpt:
it's about coming 1.2, if you're on 1.15, you're fine.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
Has anyone been using the latest KG2 kernel and if so what is the verdict?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] y0.o!:
Hi,

Great rom yet again.

Just reporting a problem with contacts. When I select some one and click history, it force closes.

If I update my camara firmware through the samsungapps apk will it undo the improvements with the cam in 1.15? I have the pink spot issue and have read the new firmware fixes it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] airuzzo:
im using it, and im really happy.

Stock rom kg2 with cf-root and CWM, all samsung crap removed.

Battery duration is really great, stable, no FC.

I have added just the mod for battery %, and all is working like a charm.

Recommended, btw im w8ing Cognition KG2 rom.

I'm having alot of crashes when I try and watch a flash video in any of the browsers. I'm also unable to reinstall flash, as all the options are greyed out on the settings menu
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
I'm waiting for Cognition KG2 as well.

Is there a list of Samsung bloatware on xda somewhere? Did you use Titanium or delete from system folder?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mach0boi:
There is a list, its here https://spreadsheets.google.com/spr...SENVeXlqUm5vV0E&single=true&gid=0&output=html :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nobnut:
I don't even use this phone and even I know how to fix that... by searching this thread. Try it one day, it's great! :p

Uninstall (Titanium) and reinstall Flash player from the Market.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
Whoa! That's definitely a list! :D

What's your preference? Freeze or delete?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mach0boi:
I have no plan on bringing them back so I deleted those :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tallica55:
So a stopping wifi connection after a few minutes with 1.15 (and 1.13 too) is not normal, right?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pliind:
Even though wifi should draw less battery than 3g, my battery usage curve says otherwise, at work (no wifi) i have a steady curve, when i get home and turn on wifi the curve just gets steaper :/
[Galaxy S II Android Development] peterperfect:
Hey DG, thanks for great work buddy. Almost getting 20h on battery. Thats a miracle considering I use my phone like hell. You made a miracle!

That would be great if you get another way that we can donate cause I can't use Paypal. I hate them and they hate me. :D

Cant wait for next version.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BuzzFuzz:
Im very happy with current Rom.

DG, take your time and release fully updated 1.20 ROM with all the goodies like ext power menu, ext notification toggles, ad blocking...

cheers
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bentez2003:
can anyone confirm if updating the camara firmware will revert the camara to stock??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BuzzFuzz:
u can try just install camera as normal apk and it will ask you if you want to upgrade your firmware. try..

PS: backup your original campera.apk. Some people report pink spots
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
for someone who doesn't even have a GS2 you sure as hell spend a lot of time on these forums :p what phone do you use (do you plan on getting a GS2?)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] chris2busy:
Is there any way i could edit any sort of file so that the only connections to be allowed while screen is off would be only browser downloads and an im app?that would be really handy.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nobnut:
Tasker can do that for you. It is a little tricky to get the hang of at the beginning though.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] el.motar:
wifi.......

AFAIK wifi draws much more power than 3g. Thats why you get a warning anytime you enable wifi on your phone.

I might be wrong cause I am not perfect though.:mad:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nightranger73:
Green Power will do that for you. You can setup a threshold speed too so if you're really downloading it will be kept while occasional traffic wont
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
Just flashed CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG2-v4.1-CWM4.zip but the CWM is still showing as 2.0 am i missing something here?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nobnut:
I have noticed that you keep posting about CWM. What exactly do you mean when you refer to it. I think you might be confusing it with something else. Can you post a screenshot of what you mean.

Recovery for example will not be v2, it will be 4.0.x.x.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
What i mean Nobnut is this........
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Crucio_:
i think he is getting confused between CWM and Chainfires CWM Manager.

The CF Kernel installs CWM v4.0.0.2 (i think that was off the top of my head)

And it installs and app called CWM Manager, if you are flashing to update the CWM Manager, that isnt gonna happen as the latest version is v2.

in CF Root title he is refering to the version of recovery not of the application.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nobnut:
That is the version bundled in CF Root. What are you looking for?

EDIT: I know Crucio_. This is what I have explained previously to him but every few days he asks the same question.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mach0boi:
Eeh? I think that's normal.. I think..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
Right i appear to be getting confused so thanks for the replies...;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
i may have asked once before i just got confused, im still getting used to the GS2 after having a HD2 for so long,it does take some getting used to as a lot of things are completely different.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nobnut:
No worries.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] peterperfect:
JuiceDefender Ultimate can do it too!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Well after trying more then 4 roms... i installed cognition 1.15 and kernel cf root kg1 so i can use tegrak (because of gpu OC)!

Best rom ever and looking foward to 1.20 :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mach0boi:
Why would u want tegrak when this rom supports undervolting? Just install setcpu and adjust the voltages there :) the only thing missing in this kernel is the GPU frequency tegrak has :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chris2busy:
Is there much difference between cognition kernel and CF root kernel?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mach0boi:
Yes. Cf-root is a stock based kernel, cognition has ninpo's kernel, but modified by DG :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pierro78:
Great Idea !

V1.08 seemed more fluid to me than V1.15

But you could add some things you put in V1.15 like undervolting ...

Also I tried the angelom kernel and it had a nice colored shell ... (busybox bash shell maybe ??)

And with Leomar's rom when you unlock the screen you can chose to go straight into the camera depending on how you slide your finger (thanks to JKay)

Also, if you could add working out of the box CIFS that would be great ! :D

(I'll offer a beer to the first chef who offers me a rom with working out of the box CIFS ;) )
[Galaxy S II Android Development] picco944:
I have an Android OS bug and I'm wondering how I can fix this. Does anybody know? I'm with v1.15
[Galaxy S II Android Development] peterperfect:
First things first you may not have a bug. Remember battery usage numbers sum 100%, so if you do nothing on your phone all day the share of iOS will raise cause it will be just the system running all day. As an exemple try to raise your display time to maximum and you will see that the amount of display share on battery usage will raise a lot and that is not such a thing as "display bug".

The reports say the bug already to be over on 2.3.4. Anyway, try the regular crap solving moves like backup up and wipe everything (data + devilk) then flash ROM again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] peterperfect:
Dud im getting so flash addicted that I can't spend 48h without flashing something LOL! :D

Hope DG blazes us with some fresh new stuff soon!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] schrickm5:
+ 1.

My flashing finger is a twitching!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] picco944:
I'm not sure. The battery drains with 10% for couple of hours without even touching the phone. The wifi is on and the auto sync too, but for me 10% is a lot.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] peterperfect:
If you got 10% each hour than you have 10h of battery. With wifi on that seems fair enought for me. You telling that you lost 10% after some hours so it really seems ok. Try JuiceDefender and see if you can get some more saving.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tallica55:
:D :D :D (sorry for offtopic, but this was a must :P )
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mach0boi:
He said he wasn't touching the phone. That's not ok for me :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mach0boi:
Now I know why is it ok for him to lose 10% without doing anything :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] peterperfect:
For the record my battery is dying after 20h average. Today i used the phone a lot and got 53% of display battery usage and 12% os AOS. Oooops, i think i have the display draining bug... :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mach0boi:
Hehe I can hit 2 days of light usage with wifi on all the time :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] syklitengutt:
Keep loosing internet connection. IT says im connected via wifi bit no real connection. If I turn wifi off and on I get net again. Really annoying.

So still have signal but no net.

Happens in stock browser and all apps using net.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] peterperfect:
With auto-sync, push and all the background notifications refresh on like facebook, twitter, two email accounts with contacts and calendar sync like me? If thats so teach me how.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] grahamn214:
Anyone experiencing force closes with regards to this rom and re-installing the samsung hub and using the stock email app. Mine will not grab any email and when I hit refresh it fc's.

Does anyone have a solution?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mach0boi:
Yes, except for the two email accounts. I just use one, gmail :) I just don't use web browsers as I feel like it is the most draining one.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jbdeq:
Hi all,

Currently on VillainRom 2.1 which I'm very happy with but one feature missing which I really want is the data toggle switch in the notification bar. As I believe Cognition is the only ROM that has it (?) I am very close to making the switch.

Does it work OK?

Also I am currently on KG2 - Should I wait for version 1.20?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hannibal226:
Hey,

first of all thx for developing and ur gr8 Rom.

Changed from Lite'ning Rom because in every new update new bugs or more old bugs come back.

Hope in your not but we'll see ;)

For now (flashed today) seems to work well and no special bugs or FCs found, except one (dunno if somebody already posted):

The Auto-brightness doesn't work correctly. It's working from light to darkness good but the ther way around not. I recognised that when u cam from dark to light, the display all time on low brightness but when u make screen-off and then again -on it directly set the brightness correct to light.

So pls fix this fast (maybe in a little update) and try not to damage any other thing then all of the rest seems to work fine for now ;)

Thanks again and go ahead with ur work ;)

Cheers

Hi i have two big problems with cognition 1.15

1) Phone often crash and go in safe mode during the day.

2) In the stock browser and dolphin HD sometimes scrolling not work in many web pages.

Can I resolve these problems???
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chris2busy:
What i noticed is that scrolling sometimes is non-respinsive.. e.g i am on a website/list that there is room for scrolling, but when i flick,it doesn't scroll and it even shows the overscroll glow!Think it might be that multitouch fix..is that kernel made?maybe i could switch and see if that takes it away..

*that does not happen 100% of the time*
[Galaxy S II Android Development] spirotech:
Test cognition v1.07 or v1.08. I am still on v1.07 (with KE7), because of the amazing data toggle switch. Very stable rom, no problems, no bugs.

By the way, i think also leomar's rom has this data toggle switch. But I havnt tested it.

regards spirotech
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nofam:
Yup - 48 hours off charge, and I still had 33% left - Facebook, Gmail, Accuweather etc syncing constantly over 3G (Wi-fi when at home), and moderate use txting/phone calls, web-browsing etc.

I've used TB to freeze any apps/services that I don't use, and have also under-clocked (200/800 ondemand), and undervolted slightly.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] darkstar09:
What did you undervolt to? Just curious? I've been overclocked these last few weeks to 200/1600 ondemand really just as a bragging feature, I've just underclocked it to 200/800 now, I'll see if it improves my battery life at all.

Does undervolting have much impact on battery life?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] nofam:
It's hard to quantify the difference UV'ing makes, but it must make some, as every CPU step is using less juice:

1.2ghz @ 1225mv

1ghz @ 1075mv

800mhz @ 975mv

500mhz @ 850mv

200mhz @ 825mv

I'm going to flash the new ninphetamine kernel and see if that gives even more goodness!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nightranger73:
You get from 5 to 20 minutes depending on how much time you have screen on.

You have stripped 5/10% from voltages but CPU is only part of the problem... you have the radio, the GPS and most of all the display...

The real benefit is phone not getting hot

Edit: underclocking too is not real benefit because if you keep your phone at 1200MHz Max and look at CPU frequencies stats you'll see it stay on higher frequency only 10/20% of the time... so undrrclocking to 800 you spare 1250-950=300mV... 20% of 300 is 60mV saved... just another 10% of CPU only... again not a big deal and the phone isn't faster as before

See the installation instructions in OP.

Using nimphets2.0 Kernel - so far so good.. and yes, 'OnDemand' between 200M and 1.6Gig.

Interestingly - with stock clock and no UV, Quadrant scores are around 4,000 on this kernel. Another observation- It charges very quick, even on a USB charge..
