Put DarkyKG3mod.zip in /mnt/sdcard/AndroidThemes/ and download metamorph from market, apply the systemui patch and reboot, you got the new H+ icons!

Lock screen SMS icon bug

Hi,

I'm a long time Darky's rom user ;)

It's the first time I ever notice a bug...

When I receive an SMS, the lock screen presents the radio icon, not an sms icon.

Hope that's fixed for next release!!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] intelintelintel:
hey guys.. sorta new to the whole samsung game so im not familiar with a few things.. basically when i rooting my phone, my phone was KG2 whatever that is.. so now to get this rom, i have to use the : DarkyROM2_XXKG3_BASE_Converter.zip

this converts to KG3 base?

and thenn i can use the darkyrom tool from market to flash this rom..

please confirm?

tia
[Galaxy S II Android Development] drexciya:
No DarkyROM2_XXKG3_BASE_Converter.zip will convert the Odexed version of the rom to Deodexed.

To install the Darky rom follow the instructions at the bottom of the first post.

i.e. first use supercore to root and get cwm recovery, install superuser from the market, install darkyrom tool from market with which you can then use to install DarkyROM2_XXKG2_ODEXED_BASE_R3.zip

I flashed this ROM after a clean wipe from Darky KG3 . But for some reason lost root.

Could you please PM me or somehow help me flash my SGS2 with supercore 1.4? I am new to all this and have no idea on how to do it :\ I have already downloaded ODIN multidownloader 4.03 and also supercore 1.4

Android version: 2.3.3

Baseband version: I9100XXKE4

Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKE7-CL215725 root@DELL103 #2

Build number: GINGERBREAD.XWKE7

Thank you in dvance
[Galaxy S II Android Development] netcitizen:
Looks like you have not yet rooted the phone so first root the phone.

Refer this thread for rooting procedure

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1103399

First Get ODIN software.

Get the CF ROOT KG3 Kernel and root it.

Then download the Darky KG6 base ROM. It has Supercore 1.4 kernel included.

Copy it into your internal sd card.

Once you have root you will have CWM(clockworkmod) installed.

Hold Volumeup+Power+home for a while and it will enter CWM recovery mode.

I always wipe before installing any ROM. but wipe will remove all ur apps+data so u need to backup.(read about Titanium backup app)

Looks like this KG6 ROM is non wipe version so I guess u can install it as such.

Inside CWM >install zip from sdcard>choose zip from sdcard > select the copied ROM and install. Use volumeup+down ,home,power keys for navigation and selection.

Once the ROM is installed . reboot the system and you are good to go.

If supercore kernel is not installed for some reason, download it separately and install it using the CWM recovery mode.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xinfinityoO:
dont flame me ..lol

[Galaxy S II Android Development] n-j-f:
Please help with a small question. Tried to trawl through the whole thread but couldn't find an answer.

I was previously on Cognition but always loved DarkyRom on my GS1 so decided to switch. Installed SuperCore 1.4 via Odin. Then installed XXKG6 via CWM. I then, and maybe this was my mistake, from CWM did a factory reset, then wiped cache and finally wiped Dalvik cache. It's working fine but when I press the power button, I do not get all the options including Recovery or Download modes - I only get Silent, Data Network, Flight mode and Power off. Is that normal with this rom? Can I get the other options back?

TIA

[Galaxy S II Android Development] n-j-f:
Sorry I misunderstood that. :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ficeto:
Now before you download, let me explain what all those packages that you will see are

KG6-Base-R2.zip -> CWM Flashable Version of the full ROM (odexed fw+browser)

KG6-Base-theme.zip -> CWM Flashable Base Theme (odexed fw+browser)

KG6-Base-stock-theme.zip -> CWM Flashable Base Stock Theme (odexed fw+browser)

KG6-Base-odexer.zip -> CWM Flashable package to return you back to odexed (odexed fw+browser)

KG6-Base-deodexer.zip -> CWM Flashable package to convert you to deodexed (use if you want to flash other themes)

SuperCore_1.4.tar -> GT-I9100 Kernel

Changelog:

Finished theme (as much as I will theme it. more from darkyy)

added battery %

added Talk2.apk (in KG6-Base-R2.zip ONLY)

If you are on the initial release, you can flash only KG6-Base-theme.zip

Just a heads up... the stock email app for me is causing a brief instance of wake every minute. I'm using an Exchange account on push and a Gmail account syncing every hour. Can't go back to previous version (KG3) because it is odexed. I'm using Enhanced Email which doesn't have the wake problem.

EDIT: Good work though Ficeto ;)

EDIT 2: The wake problem doesn't start until after the email app has been opened and synced. Then you will see in the Battery Usage graph that the device wakes up every minute briefly.

Do you not have this problem with Enhanced Email ?? I've been running EE for quite some time and have the wakeproblem with EE also.. This is also stated in Google Market ..

I've been trying a patched version of stock email, but the same problem there. Would like to know what you have done to get rid of the battery drain with EE :)..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nobnut:
I honestly don't. I have two accounts, 1 x Exchange on push and 1 x Gmail on a 1 hourly sync. I have no wake during sleep with it. I have done nothing special.

On the stock KG6 email app I have wake every minute, on KG3 I didn't. On both I had identical account setups.

EDIT: On my Exchange account I have push active between 08.00 and 18.00 but this doesn't make any difference.

Gray scale banding - when you look at a gradient picture on the phone, you see bands of color, color changing in steps, instead of proper gradual change of color with no visible steps.

So, things we would love the feedback on:

1) Color banding - present or not?

2) Samsung stock email client - is it still a battery waster and buggy?

3) GTalk Video chat - how is it?

4) Modem and fast dormancy issues - are they better addressed?

5) WiFi sensitivity - any changes?

6) AOS "bug" - really gone?

7) Wake up lag - gone or not?

the point of flashing the kernel first is to have a recovery that I am sure will install the ROM. CWM recoveries are different across kernels and results may vary ;)

Browser lag is a known issue with browser scroll after deodexing. Some devs found a way to fix it, so it should be fixed soon ;)

Bigger battery drain

Hi,

Since I have updated to DarkyROM2 XXKG3 BASE I have a much bigger battery drain.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] nobnut:
One day people will realise that Android OS statistics DO NOT equate to battery drain :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] on2a:
Sorry? So you're saying it equates to nothing? I understand the sentiment that the Android OS issue is somewhat overplayed but if battery usage is saying that Android OS has used 20% of my current discharge, then I'll assume that's what it has done.

Unless you're saying the bug is that the usage reported is inaccurate?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] starbucks2010:
Have someone tried to add all those % from Battery usage to see what is the total?

You'll be surprised by the result.

So, I would not rely on those % too much.

Best regards.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vofzxy:
good day all

can i ask,

1) first i have to root my SII

2) install "SuperCore or CF-Root"

3) install "DarkyROM2 Tool "

4) flash "DarkyROM2 XXKG2 R2"

5) flash "DarkyROM2 XXKG6"

is that right?

i;m kinda new to this as i am previously on a N1

cheers and many thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nobnut:
I am not saying anything like that. A simple grasp of the concept of percentages is all folk here need. Let me break it down for you.

100% is the maximum

therefore if we assume a basic scenario with three things using this 100%, lets say:

Android OS - 50%

Display - 30%

Something else - 20%

Total = 100%

Now, if we do not turn on the device's screen, the next result will be something like:

Android OS - 75%

Something else - 25%

Total = 100%

Does this mean that Android OS is now using more power? NO!

What this means is that Android OS has used a larger percentage of the power used BECAUSE THERE ARE FEWER PROCESSES GOING ON!!

In the above example, the total amount of power used has actually fallen.

But the genius folk who complain about Android OS (AKA idiots) all of a sudden believe that Android OS is now using more power and start moaning like a bunch of little girls. As you can see from some elementary mathematics... this is a load of b*ll*cks.

Do you understand now?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nobnut:
CF Root will root your phone for you, no need to root before hand (the clue is in the title > CF-Root).

Then do in this order 5 and 3. You don't need 4.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bungknees:
FINALLY. Somebody has said something to shut up the battery *****es. Thank you.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Danielfr:
I am sorry but I don't agree with you because I made many comparaisons at the end of each day and Android Os went from 9% to 20% and was also running much more ( around 1 hour instead of 30 minutes before the update)

You are wrong, as you have missed the point. Android OS is irrelevant when battery use is being considered. I'm not getting into a debate with you about this.
