you dont need to use the .pit file

the rest go in order of this

CODE_I9100XXKG1_CL349526_REV02_user_low_ship (goes into PDA section)

GT-I9100-CSC-MULTI-OXAKG1 (Goes into CSC section)

MODEM_I9100XXKG1_REV_02_CL1034110 (Goes into Phone section)

here's a guide I create if it helps ya :D

Updating to 2.3.4 firmware - if you don't want to root
[Galaxy S II Android Development] roisagi:
after flashing this ROM + supercore - can i flash a different CF-root, or i need to remain with supercore?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] elban:
You can flash cf-root after, if you prefer.

But remember that the backups created with cf-root recovery are not compatible with the ones created by supercore recovery (I don't know if it works vice-versa).

I was tempted to do that, but then I realized I'd loose cifs (which I need) because the sources of the new kernel are not available yet.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] aniteshj:
Well I found a guide and followed that, but I ended up using the pit file. Did I mess up then or no big deal?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lpsi2000:
cf-root worked for me and I did not have any issues
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lpsi2000:
You can use the other relevant kernels that have cwm implemented. Although the Nandroid backups are not compatible, the rest of the implementation seems to be compatible.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lisboapcs:
I am on CF-root 4.0 chainfire CWM MANAGER 2.0 right now. Can I flash the ROM with the CWM that I have in phone.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] elban:
It is suggested by the OP that you flash supercore kernel before flashing the rom, but there has been reports of it working with cf-root as well.

I think that you can try it, and restore a backup if it fails.

But remember that backups created with cf-root are not compatible with supercore CWM, so you might need to reflash cf-root (and eventually a stock rom before) to restore an old backup.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Jule1k:
Pretty sure the pit file is only for if you tick re-partition, since you didn't, it shouldn't do anything special.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lisboapcs:
Thanks Man! I will try now and report back.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lisboapcs:
it worked but my cwm does not work I flashed cf-root again but cwm does not work. What must I do to have my CWM cf-root work again?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] aldabal:
Flash back

Hi you! I flashed the rom and works kinda well. But I want to flash back to my old version. When I try to flash back with Odin I get this message: cannot open the serial com port. What is wrong? Worked fine when I flashed this rom!

I have a swedish unlocked phone!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lisboapcs:
I had to Flash the stock rom e root it with cf-root to have my CWM back.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] healer999:
Hello

I use KG1 Darky.

I have a few questions:

- Is there any circle or numbered battery indicator for Darky. I really need that...

- Can I use UOTKitchen for cook a battery indicator? Will it crash my system?

- When can we enjoy the BLN in the kernel?

Thanks!!!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ficeto:
BLN will be in SuperCore when I port it :)

you can use UOT Kitchen if you flash a theme that has battery mod
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alonav:
2.3.4 fixes aos bug!!??!??!?

Hi,

Thanks for all the good work but it's been a week since i installed the stock 2.3.4 and the aos service takes above 80%!!!:(

if the phone lasts for more than 10 hours- i'm happy:)

Any ideas before i go back to 2.3.3 (this will be a pain since i have no back ups)

thnx
[Galaxy S II Android Development] healer999:
Please please port it!! :D

Thanks!! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] redstripe:
If you check your battery stats when you notice high battery drain and see aos has a high percentage just reboot,I have never let mine go above 35% and enjoy 36-48hrs with data and sync on all the time.

The only issue that I have come across (which has nothing to do withbattery drain issues) is that the back button when playing videos has disappeared from the top right hand side of the screen,anyone else have this? It doesn't bother me that much,just wondering?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] healer999:
I have done the new battery icon in the OUT kitchen. It works perfectly!!!

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dtekkt:
can you look into porting this to your rom? Atm it is only for odexed stock roms.

I just want that functionality (the modded lockscreen), not the theme :D.

Could be a big step towards using changeable lockscreens (like on sgs1)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nizno:
so i installed this version over the 2.3.3 darkyrom and i lost my batt % etc.

is this correct that this newer version has less or did i do something wrong?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sances:
wow battery life is quite good now but the browser lag is still there
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Zheiko:
Whats wrong with the browser? I thought that if everything is stock, it shouldnt be problem.. the original browser is unusable and laggy... I am sorry if I sound grumpy or greedy, I do appretiate your work, is it being looked into this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] elban:
The browser lag is a well know problem of deodexed roms.

For 2.3.4 based roms, there is a workaround which disables acceleration.

I personally find it good enough but some argue it is not fluid and eats more power.

You can find themes which include this fix as well as the browser only, just look into this forum or in the "themes and apps" one.

Alternatives include installing a stock rom, a customized rom but odexed and going back to 2.3.3.

EDIT: this is a very good theme for darky's kg1: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=15739714

Another solution might be using another browser like firefox, dolphin etc.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Zheiko:
Thanks!

I dont like any other browser, and I was trying most of them(if not all) and I just love the stock the most... dunno why, maybe for its simplicity...

Well, I'll check the link you gave me, if that somehow helps. Thing I really liked about the Accelerated browser was its smoothness, it was working flawlessly, and honestly, its the biggest weapon against iDieHards, to show them, 'look, FLASH is working and NO LAGS' :D:D:D

And that it eats more? Well of course it does, but thats the price I am willing to pay for the smoothness :)

Edit: Ok, I think I will go back to stock 2.3.3 because of the browser... BTW: what exactly is this Deodexing?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vinicius.carvalho:
Sorry guys, is there any procedure on how to do this? I've never used Odin (actually did to root) but how can I install this using Odin?

I mean, PDA? Phone? What option to choose? Do I need to boot the phone into download mode and then go to Odin upload supercore?

After that upload the zipped rom file to the SD card and then boot the device into recovery?

Sorry, it may seem stupid to many, but a few extra lines on the topic would have saved this dumb question.

PS: Sorry if it was answered before, but I could not browse 53 pages of thread.

Regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Zheiko:
You dont need to browse the whole forum to find this, there are few topics around, explaining on how to root, how to flash kernels and how to install custom ROMS...

Before performing steps below, I strongly recommend you to go around and take a look on forums regarding Rooting, Flashing and using ODIN! There's plenty of em around!

!!!I do NOT take any responsibility for your bricked phone, you've been warned!!! Also, by doing this, you are actually VOIDing your WARRANTY!!!

Very shortly, what you need to do, is download ODIN, use it as flashing PDA(do NOT tick or untick anything in ODIN, only the PDA button). Get your phone into Download mode(use search on how-to), push PDA from ODIN, phone will reboot, now you are on SUPERCORE kernel. You can now copy the ROM .zip file into your SD card(or on phone memory). Once this being done, turn off the phone and get into recovery(search how-to), go into Install zip from SD card, find the file you have copied there earlier on and flash it... then reboot phone... simple as that...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] holyguyz:
Well done, ficeto! Now my SGS2 works great with DarkyROM2 2.3.4, except the low mic volume on most call-in. Any idea?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ficeto:
base roms and kernel updated in the OP ;)

Hello XXKG2

Thanks, been waiting on the update :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] karendar:
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-odex-and-deodex-in-android-complete-guide/

Here's a crude, but effective explanation of deodex vs odex. Odex is basically modular APK files versus full APK packages. It's used primarily to save space, but makes modifying a specific APK in android complete hell (Themes for example)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tdesbien31:
Is there a change-log or anything? I dont know what has been done in this rom...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Zheiko:
So, in the Odexed version, there is fully working stock browser with no lag issue?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BelgianAtheist:
Why is the modem listed as a seperate download?

After installing XXKG2 base rom my baseband says XXKG2, should that modem still be installed?

Frozen on Boot

Hallo !!!

Can somebody help me ....

my phone remain on Samsung galaxy Boot image with danger simbol.

Does not boot more!!!

Helps
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xinfinityoO:
I like this approach :)

but would it be possible to read from a text file.. incase someone wants to install one or two apps from the list.. so they can remove those apps from the text file and thus they get installed.. (all apps in text files will be removed).. would make it a bit easier for a lot of people

i know we can install the apps again by putting them in systems\apps ..

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
no-samsung is a blank file. The installation script checks if the file exists and does not install the samsung apps which are stored in the /extra/samsung folder.

If you want to add some of the samsung apps, move them from the above folder to the/system/app folder before flashing. You already know that.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] surya_mca:
Relax...

Just see whether you can goto recovery menu(Vol up+power+home buttons) if yes then wipe data/system/cache & Dalvik then again goto Download mode and flash again with ODIN .. sure this ll work..

If no Recovery Just pull the battery once and reflash with ODIN,,,

*Press Thanks Button if it helps You*
[Galaxy S II Android Development] EarlZ:
Im a little bit confused on the syntax for the script, say I dont want any samsung stuff installed, what steps do I exactly do ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
I guess you got your answer. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] damigor:
Thank you very much, but I've tried to do all of things that you said .

Nothingh chainged. I am able to acceess to Recovery , I am able too also flasch a clockwork recovery , But when I flash whith ODIN , remain every time frozen!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] surya_mca:
Do one thing...

1>GOTO Recovery Wipe Every thing including Dalvik..

2>GOTO Download Mode

3>FLash Stock KG2

4> Reboot..

It should work.. if its then we ll c to flash Darkyy
[Galaxy S II Android Development] damigor:
Thank you very much !

I have redo this thing more times. And I have now repair it.

In recovery I have an error on CSC/system...etc etc ....

I have flash again separatly , Phone , CSC,Modem , and Now it works.

I will only ask you I want to root now my phone .

I have to root it , and than flash a stock kernel to avoid a danger sign ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ficeto:
I have better ideas, like installing only the apps that were present before and adding an app that will give you control over apps installed, flashing kernels, modems so on. Actually I have started working on that, but I lack inspiration at the moment :) having to rebuild+reinstall the app on every code change is tedious...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] surya_mca:
Great to Hear tht it worked...

For ROOTing still No specific ROOT yet available for KG2 from Chainfree but u can use KG1 CFROOT..

for Danger Sign you need to ask Ficeto or sileshn coz im also getting tht
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nechmadi:
downloaded superuser from market still didn't got root . flashed kernel again and root is working. thanks ficeto it's looks good :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kreoXDA:
please elaborate :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] tdesbien31:
Question regarding "wiping" to flash this..

Since we dont wipe in CWM, we put a folder called "wipe" in the darky folder, so after we flash, we boot up put the wipe in the folder, then reboot? Im confused how does this work?

The Darky folder doesnt exist before installing the rom, so how does it wipe?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] aydc:
I want to try the stock rom first but I'm always weary about these user_low_ship files. I don't need to repartition, right? Do we flash this like any other 3 file stock ROM?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] peosb:
So if I already run a rooted kernel with CWM I can't flash directly? Still meed the SuperCore?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vladleo:
speed, modem, little visual and audio customizations, just perfect for a end of a week:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Create the file/folder before flashing the rom, at the time of uploading it to the GS2.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hung77:
how about the banding issue, is it gone?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Josippo:
which baseband should be used? after flashing ROM the KE4 baseband still was there.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ahwaztaxi:
I have a rooted stock KF3 rom with CWM inside it.

It's my first time using a darky rom so I'm not familiar with the basics and have some questions :

1. what is the method for flashing the supercore .tar file ?

2. which boxes of ODIN should be selected ?

3. why should we flash the supercore file before the main rom ?

4. what is the method for flashing the original rom ?

5. and what does browser lag at the end of this line means ? :

DarkyROM2 XXKG1 BASE DEODEXED CWM: HERE (Browser Lag)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vladleo:
what exactly is banding issue?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Andy`:

Is SuperCore kernel updated to 2.3.4? I'm asking because on OP it says SuperCore 1.0 and the 1.0 version was 2.3.3
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Get a jig. Very easy.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] damigor:
Thank you very much !!

It's was a pleasure!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] elban:
for everybody wanting to get rid of bloatware, there is an easy and "portable" way, using titanium backup.

just create a custom label and add all the offending apps to that label.

then, when you install a new rom, choose to filter by that label and uninstall :-)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MeanEYE:
Flashed and so far it's working really nicely. We'll see as time goes. Even if it's half-baked ROM it's still better than stock KE2. I had so many problems with that one.

Thanks a bunch! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ficeto:
there is nothing half-baked in it ;) it's just all stock ROM in odexed and deodexed versions. It has capabilities to add any KG2 mod that will come out, and that is all this is :)

It let's you upgrade to KG2 without wiping your data and gives you an option to not install many stock apps that I personally find useless ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] oofol:
Flashed just yesterday... And I allready regret...

I do not know if it's only a issue with me or the ROM it's own, but here it is how it was:

- flashed with stock (as recomended) twice because after the first time i wasn't able to access RECOVERY

- after successfull flash (finally) problems with radio - GPS and 3G didn't work...

- flashed another time and it worked

- I was copying a movie to the internal memory and after that the whole memory was cleanded!!! NOT ONE FILE was left... (still trying to recover the.......)

- finally no system sounds are working. Loudness is set up at max for everything and I do have my device vibrateing only....

Something like this never happend to me before...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ficeto:
flashed stock? twice? recommended? stock recovery? i'm totally lost at what you did, but just to note, if there is something wrong with this ROM, it's either you or Samsung, because there is nothing else to it. I do not offer stock ROMs, only ones installable by CWM recovery, so please give full steps of what you flashed if you want us to be able to help you ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MeanEYE:
Hm, since this is leaked ROM I thought it might not be finished. Either way am satisfied with it so far.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tdesbien31:
Is the Darky team ever going to make a "complete" rom, like the ones developed for the captivate?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] oofol:
I see now the first post was changed yesterday after I flashed... Any way:

1. flashed with XXKG1

2. full wipe

3. flashed Super Core 1.0

4. recovery and radio didn't work...

5. flashed XXKG1 again...

6. full wipe again...

7. flashed Super Core 1.0 again..

8. flashed (CWM) Darky ROM XXKG1

Everything seemd to be ok... till it happened...

Any how I did enjoy DarkyROMs on previous devices and that's why I wodering so much...

I can't recover arround 80% of photos and that's makeing me sad...

ROOT

Dear Ficeto or others... :-)

I've flashed the ROM Deodexed, and If I have right understand, this ROM is Rooted with Busybox.

Now When I start Titanium Backup , it says that I have not root privilegies.

What's wrong??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MrPaveL:
Hi,

see if you have superuser installed.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] MrPaveL:
install it from Market, it should be Ok
[Galaxy S II Android Development] profihacker:
Can you help me to MrPavel?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MrPaveL:
You have to create directory called Darky on your sdcard and inside it file named no-samsung

Hope that helps You.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] dk_iceman:
You should make a Folder called Darky and then a sub folder called No-samsung NOT at TXT file called no-samsung ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ragflan:
Here's a question I hope someone can help me with. I flashed DarkyRom with a full wipe and no samsung apps. All good. Booted up, installed superuser, titanium, restored everything. All good.

I'm not gonna say how much battery% I lost overnight because you need a few charging circles to really see battery usage. But my question is about Android OS.

Phone was at 100%. 4 hours later, Android OS was using 70% (with apps having used an hour and a half of CPU time and the phone just sleeping). Basically during the 4 hours the phone was sleeping, an hour and half something was going on.

My question: What did ficeto mean no more Android OS bug? Have I done something wrong? I used System Monitor and System Processes (suspend, event/0 and media server) are the ones using the most CPU.

Any ideas anyone?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
No. Create a folder called Darky and then create files or folders mentioned below according to need. Easiest way is to create a blank txt file and remove extention.

no-samsung : does not install Samsung apps

wipe : If you want to wipe phone

no-swype : does not install swype

no-kernel : does not install the kernel that comes with the rom.

no-modem : does not install the modem that comes with the rom
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vijaysivakula:
You have to create folders and not text files or any other files. I create a folder "Darky" and in that folder i create the other folders "Wipe" and "no-samsung". These are folders that i create using Astro. Hope this helps.

Well so far this morning in 3 hours my phone has burned through 57% of it's battery.

I also have issues syncing my Exchange corporate account with the phone, I don't know if these two issues are linked.

I've frozen the e-mail app using Titanium back-up, hopefully that'll alleviate the problem.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OisteinR:
"if [ -e "/sdcard/Darky/no-samsung" ]; then" will get a match on both files and folders.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Thanks for clearing that for a Linux noob. Much appreciated.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ficeto:
unfortunately Odin stocks (maybe most) WIPE your internal SD as well... I also lost all of my **** flashing XXKG1 (what a crap) the ROM or Kernel itself does not even touch your internal SD (wipes /data if instructed to) i don't know why you needed to flash SC1.0 twice :( SC1.1 should definitely feel better.
