Hi all!

This is my mixture of the latest ROM available, KF2. TK-ROM is created with the intent to be a mixture of the latest available sources, though stable for everyday use.

Ofcourse I don't take any responsibility for your device... This works with mine, so it should on yours too!

First off: Thanks to the people that inspired me to learn how to use build ROMs, and for those that gave me hints in the Samsung universe: Cyanogen, Pulser_g2, Paul from MoDaCo, designgears, jazzor, bmarko82 ++

ROM features:

-Rom Base: XXKF2 (thanks to Intratech's thread)

-PDA:KF2, CSC:KF2, PHONE:KF2

-Deodexed

-ZIP-Aligned

-Battery percentage, adwanced power menu & CRT effect (update.zip without below in the thread) (Thanks to JKay)

-Modded Maps 5.7.0 to allow navigation outside the US - for official install maps.zip through CWM found in data/maps/ (thanks to ownhere/stian230)

-Added European servers to GPS config file

-CF-Root v4.0 KF2 Kernel w/root/busybox/CWM4 (Thanks to Chainfire)

-Chainfire3D v2 (obvious who to thank, or?^)

-modified mms.apk (Thanks to muveszur)

-modified camera.apk (thanks to Potatoman)

-Gtalk with video (thanks to ma10)

-Launcher Pro 0.8.6

-Titanium Backup

-Lagfixed browser (thanks to LitePro)

-Swype and Samsung IME with nordic languages

-Removed full battery notification sound

-Removed lots of Samsung apps (update.zip to get them back under)

Download TK-ROM v0.3.8 md5: a30476eab55cfa59041921bd00fce9c9

v0.3.8 doesn't require a wipe to work. If you experience problems, please try wiping (data + dalvik cache) before reporting issues.

To get a really nice, blue theme for TK-ROM, visit this post!

FLASH THROUGH CLOCKWORKMOD, NOT ODIN!

Instructions:

1. Flash a custom kernel with CWM, eg. this

2. Download the ROM, and place it somewhere on the external SD card

3. Reboot into CWM

4. Navigate with the vol keys to Install zip from SD card -> choose zip -> navigate to where you put the ROM -> press home button

5. Press power button to go back, then home to reboot device

If you appreciate this ROM you may consider to buy me a soda (I don't like beer you see ;)). It's not expected, but highly appreciated! :P

Or to thank me, simply press the "thanks"-button ;)

*To get the official Google Maps flash the maps.zip attached through CWM, and update through market.

*To remove the CRT effect flash the framework_wo_crt.zip though CWM.

*To remove samsungapps (musichub, socialhub, IM etc.) open the attached .txt on your phone, mark all, copy & paste in terminal, then accept root and you're finished. You can add/remove apps as you wish with notepad. :)

*The best fonts I've found so far are ComfortAA and cocon light from here.

*Phone.zip WITHOUT increasing volume is attached. Flash through CWM.

*To get the removed samsung apps installed on your system simply flash this.

*Changelog and screenshots in post #2*

hi mate. need to make it clear if its going to wipe or no wipe?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vimto25:
this looks very nice! good work! , so many roms to flash im spoiled for choice, but im going to have to flash this 1 defo, do i need to flash the CF-Root v4.0 kernel to be able to flash this rom? as im coming from stock ke7.

thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] malavan:
wow thanks nordic rom heja norge.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vimto25:
he has stated "Does a full wipe on flash..." already
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zidane:
nice rom, i like the features.

any chance to get stock theme on this? (stock icons etc)

also, do i need to wipe coming from lite'ning 1.4?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kersey:
Looks good and seems to have all the tweaks that i need. Think i'll give this a try later.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
as already mentioned(read the red letters ;):

Yes, or at least, it's the easiest way :)

i'm probably going to stick to stock from next version (which will be full version with wipe as well), as I've found a glitch in this theme already (took me one day though... was finished yesterday) :S The stock version will be up in ~1 hour
[Galaxy S II Android Development] B3311:
Flott jobb, mange takk:) /Great work, many thanks!

Although I like the black dialler, I'd prefer one with the "stock font" numbers, if you know what I mean - could that be included with your stock version?

Takk igjen;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zidane:
i'll wait another hour then!

are you just releasing the theme or the entire ROM ?

cant wait!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
It will be the entire ROM, like 0.1b :)

working on it now, then I have to test it, upload and post ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] krabman:
A few suggestions for you. I'm not fond of the charging icon included and prefer the circle that alternates between showing the charge state (percentage) and plug icon in the center. It's a lot easier to see where you are at a glance with that one when its on charge and a little bit easier than the stock when its not. This is just me maybe but I prefer to get market apps off the market should I choose them. IMO a setup like designgears uses where you can take your choice when you first boot the rom is the way to go, lets users pick their poison. Any how looks like a good piece of work and I'm likely to flash this and give er a spin.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] malavan:
no novek i love your theme can you keep it plaese.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zidane:
excellent!

and it seems your going to be busy, i know some people really like that theme! i.e. ^
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
Thanks for the tips, but LP and TB are apps I use much for testing etc. so unless there are many requests to remove them, they stay. :)

I'm going to put a .txt in OP for people to run in terminal on their phone to remove unwanted apps (with a selection that I use prepopulated). It's easier if people just removed what they don't want, and those who like what "stock-like" gives can get that.

The "Stock" version will still be with crt/advanced power menu/battery%, but slightly more clean... :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Major_Sarcasm:
Nice rom so far.

I have two issues though; one is that Google Maps won't update, says the package is incorrectly signed. Two is that scrolling seems to 'hitch' quite often. Having come from Lite'ning ROM which was silky smooth, it's quite noticeable.

Thanks for posting though :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] krabman:
I use the Ti pro myself, have LP installed but have been running TW debloated for a while. Wanted to give it a fair shake. The idea was not those specific apps just a mechanism that allow users to choose their poison whether it be like design gears, a spare parts, a separate app such as pulser uses. Or what you propose, doesn't matter its the concept not the road. For myself I can fix these things before I flash or after case depending but it takes less time to skip unwanted software altogether than remove it after the fact. At any rate these were not criticisms just suggestions. I appreciate your efforts and will likely flash this after I see where my battery ens up with KF1 which I flashed yesterday.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
It does for me for some reason... It's from here, maybe there's a solution: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1007132

I'll look into the hitching... Is it just there during the first sync, or still present after the first 5 mins?

No criticism taken ;) If I don't get suggestions on what to improve, there will much likely be less results too :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] malavan:
what about the dailer theme.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] abb_84:
Dont know this in english.

Grunnbånd versjon er KE7. Burde jeg forandre dette?

My battery is good, but on my desire HD with 1300 ma battery and leedroid ROM i could use my phone longer then with SGS II. Is there any tweeks to get more out of the phone. Custom kernel and voltage control maybe?

Sent from a SGS II ringsaker
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
That's the same baseband as I use :)

I undervolt my CPU with Tegrak's ultimate app, with the included kernel of this ROM, CF-ROOT.

1200MHz, 1150mV, 1050mV

1000, 1050, 925

800, 950, 850

500, 850, 825

200, 825, 825
[Galaxy S II Android Development] abb_84:
I have some problems with my 3g connection. Sometimes when i try to read a internet page i get error saying there is no internet connection. If i disconnect and reconnect its back and no problem
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
It has happened to me once too, but I was in an area with poor signal. I just waited 30 sec and it was up again. I think it was just lost, and didn't try/failed to reconnect. It may be an other problem for you, but there's not long until a new ROM is up, so hopefully new modem and kernel will fix it for u ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shahadat:
any chance getting the rom by tomorrow? :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
Hopefully up within an hour :) The advanced power menu isn't included, as I'm totally newb when it comes to jar-editing :P I'll make an update.zip for it as soon as it comes available :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shahadat:
:D:D waiting! btw, based on KE3 or KE2??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
When I saw KF3 was older(compiled before)KF2, I went with KF2... :)

/edit

v0.3 is up in OP :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] malavan:
thanks novek any changelog.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
2nd post... :)

/edit

found a bug in titanium backup. Batch doesn't work. ~15 mins... sorry people, hold on
[Galaxy S II Android Development] abb_84:
Will try the new ROM. Maybe it fix it :-)

It has got "frozen "on grey 3g icon, turn of roming and back on got me online and with h+ icon. This happend many times today. So it can not be the signal is poor
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
Aaaand... It's up... again... :-P

Link is back in OP

-Titanium Backup removed...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sambaxxx:
Hi

download link not working?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
It is again now... Titanium backup didn't work well together with KF2, so it's removed and ROM was recompiled + reuploaded
[Galaxy S II Android Development] malavan:
novek is there any äåö swedish keybord on this new rom.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
I thought so, but the csc actually doesn't have neighter swedish, og norwegian nor danish... :S

Another csc can be installed though.

I never use the Samsung Keyboard, so didnt notice it. SwiftKey beta x is a great replacement ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jessiemelo:
Hey guys, I placed the zip file on to my sd card...re-booted into clockwork recovery and it's not on the sd card. When i place it on my phone's memory it's there but it doesn't install properly...help please!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
Could you write the text that come when its not installed right?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vtec303:
hi mate, thanks for the new version, any chance of a themed version ?,
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jessiemelo:
install sd card

finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package....

E: Signature verification failed

installation aborted
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
hmm... Have you checked md5? Seems the file is corrupt
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
I'm not much of a themer, but as soon as people start making themes compatible with KF2 it's just to download them and flash though CWM
[Galaxy S II Android Development] malavan:
SwiftKey beta x it is.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jessiemelo:
No I haven't...I have never done that...I'll try to figure it out.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
Search after winmd5... Or you could just try to download again? :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jessiemelo:
md5 is a match...I thought it was weird that when I placed it on my sd card it didn't show up but it did when i put it in my phones memory..you think that has something to do with it?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
yeah, its a little weird... Try to transfer it to sd again, maybe?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Exlo:
maybe I release my own "personal" theme in near future :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nightranger73:
Have you flashed stock firmware to get rid of yellow triangle? Ifvyes... well you have no more cwm recovery (orange text) but only stock recovery (blue text) and that's what you get...

Reflash cfroot kernel please

[Galaxy S II Android Development] luminouche:
Thx for this rom !

But, i can hear sometimes noises through loudspeaker (at boot, when lockscreen appears for example)

Sounds like a little crack, at a low sound level, 2 times (each time i can hear it)

Do you have this too ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Shubbis:
I installed this through CWM and when it rebooted I got a .. matrix like screen with AER in the bottom right corner. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
all I've got is a tiny vibration... No sound
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
that's supposed to fill the screen (does that here)... Bootanimation I've tried from the theme section :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Shubbis:
For how long..? I left it for quite a while and nothing happened. :/
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
Max five minutes... Does it boot loop? You may have to wipe data, depending on which rom you flashed from.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Shubbis:
Well, it depends what you mean by boot loop. The animation runs for a while, stops for a sec and the animation restarts (not the phone).

I flashed from Litening, then i reflashed stock rom, and flashed from stock. Same thing
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
yeah, its looping... :p

Try to go into cwm again (power, volup + home) and wipe data/ factory reset
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Shubbis:
I already have, waiting and watching the matrix .. ;)

And there we go! Awesome :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jessiemelo:


That's probably what it is...thanks man.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] jessiemelo:
Hey guys, thanks for your help...rom is up and running right now...going to bed but will give feedback soon.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] luminouche:
Hi, other problem with Flash Player, impossible to update...

So, with RootExplorer, i removed InstallFlashPlayer in /system/app

I installed FlashPlayer from the market, latest version, it's OK now

But, i can't play embedded videos, for example in this page :

http://www.frandroid.com/actualites...se-balade-dans-les-rues-de-munich/#more-74190

Everytime, i'm redirected to the YouTube app...

My SGS2 can't, but my Optimus 2x is OK

What the problem ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alexdk:
Hi guys

may I ask what language this rom support?

Thx
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
most languages, though t9 seems missing for the nordic countries. Its just to use another keyboard...

V0.3.1 (available in OP) works with updates... Did a bummer with signing some wrong files with 0.3.

The Multi-CSC doesn't work with KF2, yet. As soon as a posibility come I'll update the ROM.

Nice theme! :D

----

BTW people... 0.3.1 is soon up. Fixed a failed signing process that prevented e.g. flash to be updated through market, added advanced power menu + titanium.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Techvir:
Any screen shots please
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Araf:
the download link fr v3.1 is down...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:

Does Titanium work properly now??

[Galaxy S II Android Development] kskbl23:
I have a question:

Because you don´t include advanced notifications Menu? with toggle Data...

Thanks!!!!

Great ROM, it´s the best!!!

I try other ROMs out of curiosity, but to go back in 2min to my backup TK ROM

updating

Hi

I am on 0.3 and want to update to 0.31.

As I understand it, I do not need to wipe, but should I wipe dalvik cache? or other cache?

Also in ClockWorkMod there is an option to "apply /sdcard/update.zip" what is this?

The way I understand it, I flash an update the same way as I flash a complete rom (I just dont wipe)

Do I also flash the blue theme the same way?

Can I use CWM-Manager to flash update and theme?

Thanks for a great rom:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
You Can eple the caches if you want, but its not required to wipe anything.

Its recommended to flash roms from cwm after reboot (power+volup+home). Themes can be flashed through cwm app.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
its actually older than kf2... We're on the newest base :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
0.3.1 includes it... :)

........

Sorry for triple posting but the app can't multi quote :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kskbl23:
I don´t see!!!!!!!!!!!! :confused:

I only see the Advanced menu in power, but no notifications.

As I do these steps??

I can not copy text loose in the root of the phone!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Fauert:
OK !! :o
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Exlo:
"Toggle Data" can be found in the Power Menu
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
Data toggle is in the power menu... Maybe I've misunderstood what you wanted.

You must open the text file with some editor, copy all, and paste it in a terminal emulator... Post back if you don't make it :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ZiCoN:
I wanted to hold off a bit before flashing a custom rom on my S2... But this, plus the blue theme just looks too good :) .... and it's nordic.. yay :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] abb_84:
Still problem with 3g dont work, but when turning roming of and back on its all good.

Looks like it freeze when 3g icon show up, and of on with roming turn h+ icon back and also internet connection

My net provider is good in same place on other phone.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Fauert:
"You must open the text file with some editor, copy all, and paste it in a terminal emulator" , what am i do now in the emulator ??? to remove these apps ? :o
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
when pasting in terminal you should get a root prompt. accept it, and the script will run. then reboot.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Fauert:
Thank`s . I will try , and blasting god ROM ! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shahadat:
Hey Novek, is there any way to make this nonwipe rom (.31) into a wipe rom?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
yeah... It's just to add a wipe.sh script in system root, and include it in the updater-script. Why?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shahadat:
Actually I feel a little better with a wipe rom. :o

EDIT:

Thanks for the direction. :) I found those lines in the update script.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jeandujardin01:
Quick questions;

- Is it me or there is no Accounts & Sync in the settings ?

- cant save APN ? anybody else ?

- is it possible to have the 7 homescreens ? (just bought Launcher Pro plus...)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shahadat:
I also faced the same problem. I thought maybe I did it wrong. Doing the whole thing again. Didn't try to add apn.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BackfireNL:
Nice rom! but i don't like the CRT-Animation :(

If i could get this rom with no CRT-animation i would be in love with this rom! i like a stock experience!

Is there a framework-res.apk so i can switch it!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
yeah... Every framework for kf2 that are not made for villain... Check three thread of smaberg or the advanced power menu thread :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kskbl23:
+1

I have the same problem!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
accounts and sync is actually gone... Will check out tomorrow. I can add apn without problems, thought.

Lp can have 7 home screens, yes.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Shubbis:
Hate to be a late night buzzkill every night, but I've been playing with the samsungapps.txt trying to remove all the junk, but it doesn't seem to remove everything. I still have music hub, samsung apps and a few other things installed. When i run the commands nothing happens, except for confirmation that terminal has root.

Any ideas?

Edit: And where do i place the gps.conf file? Is it included in the latest version? :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
the scrip actually doesn't remove music hub... I've forgot to include it. Is socialhub still there? It's not all samsung ware that gets removed by the script.

The attached gps.comgn was for another dev that needed out. Its included in all of my releases. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shahadat:
I did a fresh install wiping with odin and all but still no Account and sync in the settings menu. A bug? or am I doing it wrong? :confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Novek:
bug... I'll make a update tomorrow
