Great. Thanks.

Now:

Wipe Cache, wipe dalvik, and format the /system before install.

Install zip from SD

Reboot

Not sure where I find format system in CWM. Is it in advanced section?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
Ya that's what i had to do. Formatting wouldn't work at first though.

Flashed stock ki8, factory reset didn't even fix it. Kept getting android process com.phone fc. Ki8 didn't want to go on my phone at all !!!

Had to flash stock ki3, hard reset and format, then stock ki8 followed by RK ki8.

All running well now. Font is bolder. Can't wait for a battery & apm mod. Got very used to JKays themes !!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kavey:
RE: the 'bolder' Droid Sans font in KI8

For some reason KI8 has a 'QVGA' version of the font (slightly bolder with different hinting for lower-res devices probably). if you read the font properties in Windows you can see and compare with the correct one in KI3

You can fix by just replacing the file in the zip.

I change font anyhow, Droid Sans is a bit boring for me :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AndroidGX:
Small question: after you guys experiences, finally what is the real gain and difference between KI3 and KI8 ?

It seems that KI8 is bugged like KI4 about the "Power saving" badly traducted.

Many thanks ! :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tricky103:
Not to sure about bugs. I like this rom so far. I have had trillian running all day and battery level is great, much better than previous roms.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
Im using cf-root 4.3 now. I tried Siyah 1.8 but my phone got a bit laggy.

Only bug I've noticed is ..After flashing cf-root through cwm app...the cwm app disappears....wtf ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tricky103:
Maybe as the app is inatalled by the kernel not the rom. Maybe best to keep a backup on the sd card or titanium.

Tapatalk. GT-I9100. Rom Kitchen KI8.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
I had it after flashing the Rom. It stayed after flashing Siyah and vanished after flashing CF.

I can extract it from stock Rom if needs be but it means going up to my pc.

Enjoying Spains performance against Scotland and am lazy :D

EDIT....got it ! It was in /system/app and i just clicked "install". It must have tried to overwrite what was there and failed.

Heres one bug...

I am unable to change the lcd density down from default 240.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tricky103:
Not sure how you set the dpi. I just changed mine to 210 and it works well.

Simply open up root explorer. Go to 'system'. Long press 'build prop'. Edit with text editor.

Scroll 2/3 down to

ro.sf.lcd_density=240

And change the 240 to what ever you like, save it and reboot

How come KI8 v7 is missing busybox?

It's not in xbin?

And when I started AdAway it was asking for BusyBox.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tricky103:
Let me check. I thought it was there
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tricky103:
Thanks. I did miss it, not sure how.

Fixed now.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dneill2006:
Thanks.

If I take the BusyBox file from KI3 and add it to KI8 would that work OK also?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Rom_Kitchen:
Small fix. v7.1 Busybox added to xbin.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rafsi:
Interesting, I have always used SGS Tools, it would not change the density for build.prop file thou I was able to do the same with cog 1.5.1 ROM.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rafsi:
Is there a link to download v 7.1
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Rom_Kitchen:
You can install busybox from the market. Or go to www.romkitchen.org. The version nuber hasn't changed their yet
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rafsi:

Using KI8 v7.1 getting this error in BLN now

"This liblights does not support BLN."
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tricky103:
Bln is down to the kernel. I have never tried to get bln working I don't like it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dneill2006:
Yeah got it working, had to change "lights.GT-I9100.so" to a different version to enable BLN on it.

BTW, I remember you Tricky from the days of your optimised SGS1 ROMs before you joined the ROM Kitchen Team :)

I went back to my HTC Desire after having a SGS for a while, now got a SGS2 and feel this is the perfect ROM for me :)

Cheers mate! :) Keep up the work.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tricky103:
Can you zip that file. I can add as a choice in the kitchen.

Hey.

I have spent the day resting. Day 5 of this bug.

But..

I opened the slim rom with root explorer, and the apps was fine. But there is a couple of other things to be removed. From 'etc' kies folders and power on sounds, from 'lib' unused files like fmradio, Swype, screen capture, kies.. From media the boot animation and then from the folders all ringtones etc except standard ones.

Other than that I want to make a few changes.

Change standard tones to an ics one

Change standard wallpaper to an ics one.

Disable home button/wake up lag with Android policy.jar

I will get to finish later for sure.

Feeling better already :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tricky103:
I want a 90'a 911 also
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
