You can flash directly provided you clear the cache etc. and follow the install instructions closely:

1. Do a factory data reset

2. Boot into recovery mode

3. Wipe cache and dalvik cache

4. Install Part 1 until you get the install completed message.

5. Select Reboot Now and let the phone boot up and you should get to an Android setup screen. Don't use advanced CWM mode or reboot into recovery

6. Setup the phone as requested and then reboot the phone into recovery mode again

7. Wipe cache and dalvik cache again

8. Install Part 2

9. Reboot phone and everything should be working...

10. If you get any error msgs, try removing your external SD card and start again.

Screen Saturation

I noticed that the screen colors are kind of weak in comparison to "old" android 2.3.x builds. Changing the display mode to dynamic didn't make it better in terms of saturation..is there any hack or method to get back the crisp colors?

swype issue on ICS

Has anyone else having issues getting Swype to stay as their default keyboard?

I constantly set it active, then as soon as I try to use it, it defaults back to the rubbish sammy kb.

Once you go swype, youll never go back! Unless you cant keep it active.. grr.

So i used to be a fan of Lightning ROM, even tried LitePro's new ICS ROM, but this ROM, it the Bomb.

Im getting great battery life, its one of the smoothest ICS ROM's I've ever used. I'm loving the features and the launcher. Top Notch.

If i get the chance i would like to do an English review on the ROM, because it is awesome. :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lumsdoni:
Can someone please help me.

I got this working wonderfully apart from a couple off apps which just hung there but I could live with that.

I did a CWM backup and reflashed back to Foxhound 3.0 while I waited for the alarm fix etc.

However when I tried to restore the backup I got a sum mismatch. Thought it might be due to GB vs ICS kernels, so I tried to wipe, install a clean version of Foxhound ICS, before restoring the backed up ROM with all my aps but to no avail.

SOmething wrong with my system, or does backup / restore not work at present, can someone else confirm?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] coolzy:
call rec with 0.2

foxhound 0.2 is amazing so far.

just one thing...

can call rec or whatever that app was be integrated in the dialer like it was on the previous foxhound versions?

is there a way I can integrate it?

Thanks a lot.

---------- Post added at 08:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 PM ----------

is swype available too?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ApriliaM3:
CWM Backup certainly works because I restored my backup yesterday after trying out CM9 for an hour or so and deciding this ROM is much better.

I can only imagine that your backup had a glitch somehow...

I backed up my system after I got all the graphics and icons and screens tweaked how I like it but before installing my apps.

I find that app install later is so quick and easy anyway, that I usually follow this method.

Also, because all my apps apk are stored in a directory on my SD Card, sometimes I don't even bother installing them until I want to use the app : )

This also makes a smaller backup this is much faster to restore.

I tried to install 0.2 on my friend SGS 2 and it face d same prob with me..camera cant open..later i wanna try install 3.0 b4 install 0.2..hope it will work..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hartwiestein:
Coming from Batista 2.8 i installed 0.2 yesterday.

I did the following:

- Recovery Mode

- Factory Reset

- Wipe Cache

- Wipe Dalvik

- Install part 1

- wipe cache

- wipe dalvik

- reboot and "installed" user

- recovery mode

- wipe cache

- wipe dalvik

- install part 2

- reboot

After installing part 1 there was no TB and no swype and perhaps a few more apps missing.. I thought that was okay and after installing part 2 it would be fine.

It's not :-(

I tried this about 4 times. I tried not to wipe, to see, if this was the mistake, but same...

Anyone else facing this problem? Anyone got a solution? Please! Nearly starting to cry.. :-P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] scottyf79:
try using the install instructions that the dev has written up at the start of the op........theres no need for all the extra steps youve put in. .theres a poll for what you want to see added - swypes on there. as for TB, why not just download it? the same with swype - just head to the swype website and grab it.

it installs perfectly using the correct process.

and just to say that this rom is unreal! still got 44% battery after 24hrs even with internet use and sync on. absolutely amazing work and glad i switched :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hartwiestein:
Thanks for your response.

One time i tried to install it EXACTLY the way it's written in the "tutorial" on first page.

I have no problem with downloading the apps i miss, i just have done it, but i fear, if some apps are missing the installation is broken and i will get other problems?

Running now for a few hours and playing with it.

I had installed ICS before, but then it was very buggy. Now only 1 reboot since installing. So till "now", stable.

However I feel that it is not always responsive and slower then (I used) gingermod. Also my device gets hot.

So I checked and indeed it gets to 41 degrees. Never had that with gingermod. Even not when playing heavy games. So I also fear for battery life.

I don't get it, I want a version 4.x that is more stable, less battery and more responsive (like in hey I really pushed the icon, didn''t I, Yeah I did, but the device acts as if I did not because ....???...). Now, maybe that is too much asked (and I certainly don't blame the developers here!!!!, it is in general), but to be honest I guess I will be running back to gingermod if it really seems that battery life is bad. Oh and I don't like going back to my Nokia 6150 by turning everything off...

Will try a little longer but... If it is less responsive, worse battery life, what exactly do I gain except for a later version...

Am I the only one thinking this?

edit1: don't know if it has to do with it but noticed it after installing Juicedefender : wifi icon goes dark, seen others having this but didn't read a solution?

edit2: to unstable, holds for periods, sometimes Fc's... reverting to Gingermod 0.8... Will retry in a month :)

edit3: informative: juicedender in advanced mode doesn't work together very well I'm afraid:(. Overall things take longer to do on ICS. GB feels a lot lighter.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rotsj:
Having tried several other ICS roms, this one was by far the one that gave me the best first impression. Everything I need works, no hazzle, no problems, just working functionality with that lovely ICS look. It's the first time I run foxhound and I must admit I'm sorry I didn't do that earlier :)

After reading and following the installation instructions, I noticed talk about the foxhound updater app. I can't seem to locate such an app, except for the source code, so I'm wondering the following:

1. Is the updater app for both GB and ICS roms?

2. Is the updater app included in the rom it supports, or should it be compiled by those who want it?

Feel free to flame if I've missed something very obvious :p

[Galaxy S II Android Development] deadnight.warrior:
Hi Raffa,

First of all, Thank u so much for being considerate for I9100 users. I lost all my hope for an ICS rom from you. But as always Superman Raffa comes with a bang...wooohhoo...

I was on Batista GB before this ICS. This Rom meets my expectations and really thankful to you.

However, besides the usual bugs that people have mentioned here, I am facing a problem with the App Fring. It worked perfectly with your other rom..but on this rom the video comes upside down... I am nt sure if its a problem with ICS...or Fring?

Please check if you have time and I request other users to confirm it on there devices...

Also, if you can add few things like:

1. Call Recorder

2. Removed SMS log from call list

Thanks..

0.2 ICS quite stable

Hi,

I have been running the 0.2 build for last 3 days and found it to be quite stable and the battery life was decent too. Thanks for the great work on this.

Btw here are two things I noticed which can make this ROM even better:

1. Adhoc wifi : I need to use adhoc wifi connection at times with the phone. Earlier I was using the patched wpa_supplicant on Gingerbread and it worked fine. However now it does not work if I replace the wpa_supplicant provided with the ROM (and change the permissions). I tried the app WiFi Ad Hoc enabler by Arend on Android Market which seems to do take pretty much the same steps but that does not work either. Can someone provide a working wpa_supplicant for ICS or can we have it in the ROM itself?

2. I see that Chrome Beta crashes the first time I open a website after booting but starts working then onwards. Not sure if this is specific to Chrome, ICS or this ROM. But I thought it could be worth pointing out.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] spOiLerz:
hehe..he really want to teasing us..its ok..cz d rom is great..

OK..here i wanna share something..

whoever face email or exchange service error..u can fix it by reinstall the apps from the installer inside the ROM..jz now i able to fix it..and now i really happy with this ROM..

other thing i wanna request the navigator for google maps..hehe..i really get use of it cz need to travel to client place..place my lovely GS2 on my dashboard n drive..the navigator really accurate..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] c0x91:
Hey guys, is the battery life of this rom better than other gingerbread's roms?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CamoGeko:
Try for yourself and you shall see. I'm sure you wont be dissapointed since I've never had issues with battery life myself.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ApriliaM3:
I've found it to be as good as any ROM I've tried on the SGSII.

I'm so happy with this install so far... it's fast and reliable and looks really nice also!

Actually it's so reliable I've run out of tests to try on it so I've gone back to playing with my Galaxy Ace : )

There's a few new ROMs around for that now so I've been having a play with them.

Major problem. Launcher doesn't really crash, but i see NOTHING on the homescreen. Only works when I have i have an application open (I leave task manager open). But I can't feed my task killer addiction without not being able to use anything on the phone until i hold home button and open task manager, then open home button, I can't back out of task manager. Note that the wallpaper still moves if i try to swipe between screens, but there are no icons to be found. Tried a reboot. This is a new problem, anyone else experience this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gowind:
Haven't experienced anything like that yet. I suggest you keep one more launcher with you. Maybe apex launcher, which is exactly like nova or golauncher which has far more options. You can also download desk migrate from market so that you don't need to arrange your icons and Widgets when you apply the new launcher :)

Hi Zoule,

To take the big blue back, you have to insert the old battery's PNGs, extracted from the old framework-res.apk, into the new one, then you just have to cut and paste the modified framework-res.apk into system/framework with rootexplorer or similar. To insert into the apk a png you can use winrar or 7zip, just open the apk with one of them and then again paste your own pngs.

If Raffaele gives me permission I'll share my modified framework-res.apk when I got a moment.

Hey buddy.. just for your info -

the latest kernel drains the battery as hell :) - so i would recommend the v.16 of the Kernel

it's far more battery friendly

thank you my friend :D.... I also noticed in the next .. I'll change my rom the kernel as personal reasons eer angelo asked me not to use it;)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Peeyar:
Hello rafaele 1st of all your rom is the best rom i am using right now. I am using 3.4 with angelom thunderbolt kernel 18. I have read a lot of the post here that the latest kernel has some issues but not me because my battery usage has reached 2 days and 18hrs at 38%. I dont understand why a lot of people are complaining with the kernel when infact its one of the best kernel. I didnt use setcpu to undervolt my processor just the default settings. I believe a wipe of all cache, davlik, factory reset and bartery calibration did the trick on having a nice battery life. I am also using my sgs2 most of the time and its great thanks to you bro.

If u used your phone for a phone call, sms, listening to music and watching video.. u will never had issues with any problem which is most of the people have it here.. try surf the internet (WiFi) the phone will be getting too hot.. and the battery will drain faster than it should be..

but i only experience this problem on angelom 16-18.. the others works great..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] donkeyhitman:
Am I the only one who's a little concerned that Angelom is asking Raffaele to stop using his kernel after other devs such as Hacre were asking for his kernel source?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GoRRaN:
yep, after the others wanted his kernel source - angelom decided not to share his kernel to the rest of us :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xinfinityoO:
well its the forum rules and kernel source needs to be provided as all the devs have. plus kernel is supposed to be GPL so people should have access to the source.

just my thinking
