Hello

Just a quick update to check if any of you can confirm these issues are the same for those have installed KH3.

Thanks

[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Can someone test if the cwm is working after flashing with chainfire's cf root on xxkh3?? I flashed it many times but still getting the stock recovery on boot..........
[Galaxy S II General] adrian5800:
CF root and CWM works fine for me :)
[Galaxy S II General] rogconnect:
Mine is working fine as well
[Galaxy S II General] monkley:
I've come from KG3 so quite a jump but has is the camera being silent when you have the phone set to silent a new thing?
[Galaxy S II General] akbarhash:
Good one. Yes camera is silent when phone is in silent mode.

Also Messaging stopped working and would force close when i tried to view messages so i installed stock google messaging app, working for now.

Anyone else notice this.
[Galaxy S II General] 0semaj0:
can confirm working for me too.

btw, after a day of solid testing...wow, the battery life is awesome...
[Galaxy S II General] blak24:
great battery life, CMW working for me ;)

Modaco Paul's GTalk installer might work for installing the original 2.3.4 video talk enabled Google Talk?

http://android.modaco.com/topic/339390-r1-12-may-google-video-talk-installer/

I haven't tried this myself, and I doubt many people would have tried this on 2.3.4 yet. KH3 seems to be the only 2.3.4 ROM without video chat in Google Talk?

Also, what's the best way to get root with this ROM? I've tried the latest Lulz Kernel and Jeffrey's SpeedFrey, but no luck. I'll try CF-Root next, although I'd like to get root with a different kernel.
[Galaxy S II General] Peddi09:

Can anyone tell me if this version has fixed the corporate email client to show green arrows when replying to a message and blue arrows when forwarding?

The KG family of firmwares introduced this bug where all mail replied to show a blue forward arrow instead of a green back arrow.

Thank you.
[Galaxy S II General] Vulpix:
Weird, I got a reboot out of the blue.
[Galaxy S II General] akbarhash:
More changelogs...

Showing facebook icon in contacts.

Better sim contacts integration in contacts.

Can take photos with battery below 15% but flash does not work...

New camerashutter animation.
[Galaxy S II General] maddoguk:
I've had a few random reboots. Gone back to KH1 which I have already stress tested.
[Galaxy S II General] akbarhash:
No reboots for me. It is quite stable. I like the amount of small changes in it looking forward to an official release for my region..
[Galaxy S II General] androidkid311:
No waaay! R u 100% i have the same router! Its beast! I might just stay with kg6 then :-/
[Galaxy S II General] Jack Barrett:
Battery life is great here too! Cheers ;)

3G or Wifi only?
[Galaxy S II General] Jack Barrett:
Hello, Wi-Fi only :)
[Galaxy S II General] mustaine8661:
Thank you both for your help with this:)

OT - Very much in love with the XDA community. Coming from the SE Satio, it's so nice to see a device supported by devs and the manufacturer!

Back OT - ROM seems perky, however visually there seems very little difference. Agreed with the post that says most of the changes appear "under the hood".
[Galaxy S II General] kostasalfa:
Any new batt reports with this rom??
[Galaxy S II General] xsaintzx:
Honestly that Battery Indicator App is unreliable.

It once gives me 86 hours since unplugged but actually I just charged it 5 hours ago. Same goes to my friend's phone, same error.
[Galaxy S II General] metinrecepi:
Can you please tell us your combination?

Which kernel do you use? Rooter or not rooted? etc..
[Galaxy S II General] dk206:
Is this the latest U.K Stock release for the i9100?

XEU?
[Galaxy S II General] NitroOnTheRocks:
I don't think this release is official (on Kies) yet, this is a leaked (Samfirmware.com) release.

Frankenstein packages exist though.
[Galaxy S II General] perissatto:
This rom is multi language? Thanks guys
[Galaxy S II General] michman:
There is a problem with the polaris application .

it crashes every time i open a file .

i tried restoring a earlier version of polaris but it does the same .

i also tried restore the phone but no luck .

any clues ?
[Galaxy S II General] angelomaldito:
Yes, it is. It has more than 20 languages, including all major European and others ranging from Kazakh to Korean.
[Galaxy S II General] perissatto:
Thanks Angelo i will try this rom tonight... :D
[Galaxy S II General] cdallas:
try clear cache and data of polaris, it's help for me
[Galaxy S II General] DrSlump76:
Hi to all, i would like to ask if this fw version (or the older before this) corrects any camera problems (pink spot, autofocus, low light framedrops).

Thankyou very much.
[Galaxy S II General] michman:
it helped thank you !!!
[Galaxy S II General] andresalonika:
I see lag when changing through homescreens with a simple background image! But theres no lag with microbes live wallpaper (havent tried the other stock live backgrounds). The phone is formated with few apps installed. Can somebody confirm this? Thank you

[Galaxy S II General] remanent:
root & deodex version of this rom download link please ?!!?!
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Use search function please ?!!?!
[Galaxy S II General] jerome.d:
Am I right to consider, from what I have read here, that there is very little difference between KH3 and KG3/KG5-7?

I am on KG6, I just don't want to flash just for the fun of it (I did it with several preceding firmwares, but right now I am not in the mood to play with that... might come back later ;) ).
[Galaxy S II General] inkortage:
Well it would be a waste of time to re-post my questions and ask for help, next time I will ask if my phone can make coffee maybe I would have a reply.... Thanks anyway.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Your phone cannot make coffee??????? Try upgrading the firmware.
[Galaxy S II General] inkortage:
Already done..... along with other issues I posted to which I got a freaky silence, but for coffee, it get the attention....
[Galaxy S II General] GIR:
I have no idea why you are quoting rules to me which have no relation to my request what so ever. Apparently I have somehow flamed you without anybody noticing. Since we are way too deep into OT territory, care to explain?

And while we are at it care to explain why the lack of gtalk video requires such extensive conversation? One post mentioning the lack of video and a link to the topic with all the information should be sufficient don't you think?

Mine makes coffee. You just need the Frankenstein version.
[Galaxy S II General] plazzTT:
Not sure if it'll work for others, but I've found that the "System Power Saving Mode" in KH3 is phenomenal.

I've tried lots of different kernels and tricks to try to stop battery drain, nothing has been as good as this though! :D

With CPU Spy, it seems the phone is almost always at 200MHz or Deep Sleep. It does seem to make a slight lag when flicking through home screen, or applications list. I can live with it though. :)

Hopefully this works for others too.
[Galaxy S II General] akbarhash:
Dude, no one is going to go out of their way and try things for you, if they noticed something during their general usage they would have replied.
[Galaxy S II General] angelomaldito:
Firstly, what you've basically told in that post was "f**k off MY thread", and, at least for me, it sounds offensive, kind of flaming.

Secondly, the OP just referred to a new ROM available online, was not specifically a "change log" thread. Therefore I see no reasons why a missing feature of that ROM could not be discussed here.

Thirdly, why didn't you help directing me to the appropriate thread instead of telling me to f**k off? If you had done this, the Gtalk conversation wouldn't be so longer.We are supposed to help and respect each other, not to be unhelpful and agressive.

In addition your message was very selfish. The OP was not about change log. It was just informing XDA members that a new ROM was online. Then people following discussing a variety of matters related to this ROM. Lack of video on Gtalk was only one of them. You wanted to restrict what people could talk to what you was interested, and I think this is not right. If you're not interested in Gtalk, skimm it until the next post that interest you, not tell people to f**k off the thread. That's what people normally do. Even if the post was specifically about change logs and you were right to complain about OT posts, you definitely could have been more polite.

I don't want to extend this discussion. You asked me to explain and I just thought that you deserved an explanation. Now it is done. No hard feelings, let's move on.

All the best,

AM
[Galaxy S II General] redzion:
Flashed, rooted, all OK...
[Galaxy S II General] angelomaldito:
Yep, I also have this coffee making issue. Already filled a bug report within Samsung. They promised they will investigate this issue :D

Regarding the rest,

To solve boot loops issue go to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1108499

As I don't use AllShare (I don't have any other device with this enabled other than my sgs2), I don't know how to enable call-recording, I don't use WAV files at all, and all my contacts are synced with Gmail, I'm not able to help with the rest. Sorry!

EDIT: nevermind :)
[Galaxy S II General] GIR:
If that's your interpretation. All I was doing is asking people to keep it on topic and move the GTalk Video discussion to the relevant thread where everything is explained quite extensively. I don't know what's wrong with your mind but I don't see how this relates to swearing.

A changelog is more relevant to a new ROM then the absence of GTalk Video. Gtalk Video has it's own separate topic.

Yet again it is your mind which is interpreting things in a rather sick way. I think you should have it checked because I never said anything of the sorts.

The OP wasn;t about GTalk either. But since there's already a seperate thread for GTalk it's best to keep everything sorted and move the GTalk discussion there.

You're not having an extensive discussion, the only thing you're doing is saying the same thing over and over again with extensive words. The problem is not me but your interpretation of things. Next time you have a problem with somebody it's better to get a mod instead of quoting rules which have no relevance to the matter.
[Galaxy S II General] angelomaldito:
Yes, you're quite right. It was a question of sick interpretation on my part. Your post wasn't aggressive nor selfish. Please accept my apologies. I'm going straight away to the psychologist to treat my problems, and I will try to not bother you any more.

Good luck with your quest for a change log. ;)
[Galaxy S II General] GIR:
Just wanted to know in what universe the word "please" is equal to the word "****".
[Galaxy S II General] tonymy01:
yep, noticed that. It goes from about 15 hours to 25 hours life for me. I can see with set cpu that it sets the cpu max to 800MHz.

When you do a quadrant test with it on, the score drops from about 3-3.5K down to about 2.5-3K. But as you said, normal use of the phone is still pretty good.

Aha, I also see in the quadrant 3d/graphic tests the frame rate peaks at 30, where it normally peaks at 60.
[Galaxy S II General] alberto8:
Email Client

Can anyone tell me if this version has fixed the corporate email client to show green arrows when replying to a message and blue arrows when forwarding?

The KG family of firmwares introduced this bug where all mail replied to show a blue forward arrow instead of a green back arrow. I need to be able to keep track of what mails I have forwarded vs just replied.

Thank you in advance.
[Galaxy S II General] angelomaldito:
EDIT: There are green arrows for both reply ans forward.
[Galaxy S II General] Jack Barrett:
Honestly, It works very well with me. And it's true, as the phone battery lasts 3 days for real. The last I noticed was 76 hours then the battery was 10%. ;)

It's stock KH3 with CF-Root and then SpeedMod Kernel by hardcore.

Hi!

Sorry if this is old matter, but I still don't understand... If there are no differences between these two CSC files and they are "the same", why bloat the ZIP/RAR/EXE with them? Only to spend more bandwidth? And more download time? Nonsense...

There must be a difference...

Sorry.

Bug Report Submitted Within Samsung

How do you submit a bug report to Samsung?
[Galaxy S II General] alexzarin:
Huge problem report:

After flashing this ROM my I9100 lost any possibility to record calls. Looks like incoming sound stream cant be recorded any more by any program from the market. Tested with "totalrecall" & "callrecorder" (only programs where recording was possible before).

Be aware!
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
This worked for me: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1219326
[Galaxy S II General] Sleepycat3:
I'm on XXKH3 and just tested using callrecorder. It records the call fine. The playback volume is lower than what I actually heard on speaker phone though.
[Galaxy S II General] angelomaldito:
Sorry man, I was joking. After all, they heven't advertised the coffee making feature, so I couldn't complain :D I've just said that because the guy whose post I replied was complaining that his phone couldn't make coffee, in order to get attention for his original question.

I believe, the only bug report you can fill within Sammy is via their customer service helpline. Not helpful though, as it is unlikely to reach their developers. :(
[Galaxy S II General] misha72:
Not work for me too. Any idea?

Callrecorder work, but use microphone.
[Galaxy S II General] Zouk!:
Mine does too and makes donuts also thanks to homer-S-kernel mod.

I'm totally happy with the phone :-D
[Galaxy S II General] michman:
i think you r right !

this rom indeed makes difference from the others concerning battery drain and it does have some lags in flickering the screens but it does not affect the performance overall
[Galaxy S II General] ooidort:
The "flickering" you see is the UI's refresh rate capped at 30 frames per second. Don't believe me, check it with fps2d from the market.
[Galaxy S II General] sohanlon07:
Will this overwrite the rooted kernel I have? I don't mind firing it on again. Just wondering.
[Galaxy S II General] Psilocin:
You shouldn't need to modify the kernal when flashing a rom. So if you rooted earlier, it should stay rooted after updating.
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
Yes you will need to root again after flashing ROM.
[Galaxy S II General] tonymy01:
I found a nasty bug that makes writing emails nearly impossible... when you make a mistake in an email you are writing (guaranteed to happen with swype choosing all the wrong words grr), when you move the cursor to the word to correct, and hit the swype key, it seems to put the correct word elsewhere in the message. When you hit backspace, it seems to erase the wrong parts, or worse, not erase the parts and double the word that was written, it is a nightmare! The only way around it is to not use your finger to select the offending word, and instead do that swipe horizontal action from the swype key to get the arrow keys up, and move the cursor around with the arrow keys and delete/alter the words manually rather than using the swype correction. I wondered if it was a swype bug, so installed the new beta swype last night, it doesn't help.

There are other edit annoyances too, such as when you do manage to select and correct the right word, sometimes it will put the cursor at the end of the paragraph, and sometimes it randomly places it goodness knows where. When you try to move it with your finger to the end of the paragraph, it auto-selects the last word of the paragraph, and you have no choice but to either re-type the word, hit the swype key (and hope it puts it in the right spot this time) and choose the word it shows, or horizontal swype, bring up the arrow keys, move the cursor manually to the last character and type away again... makes editing messages a real real pain!
[Galaxy S II General] akbarhash:
Its true word selection and editing is really a pain in this one. removing one letter from a word requires talent, practice, dedication ;).
[Galaxy S II General] cheetah2k:
One issue I've had with this ROM is that on occasion a call comes thru but I can't hear anything... Has happened to me several times. The only way to fix it is to reboot...

[Galaxy S II General] :
Long press, edit, drag slider(s).
[Galaxy S II General] scottishlad80:
Tried long press, didnt give a edit option to resize, only seems to do that on the accu-weather widget.
[Galaxy S II General] angelomaldito:
I hadn't noticed this before but my widget got squeezed in the space it was before I flashed the new ROM (intratech's non-wipe version). However, if I try to put a new widget in a similar space it is not possible, and when I put it where there is plenty of space it become as big as yours. Strange.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Ah, sorry, one thing I hadn't considered is that it might be a limitation/feature of the launcher. I just tried with TouchWiz and sure enough you can't resize it. You can in ADW.
[Galaxy S II General] inkortage:
Hi Alberto,

I have tested on KH3 as I am using Exchange 2010 with my company.

When using Outlook on a computer, reply back arrow is in green and forward blue arrow on my Galaxy S2.

While replying or forwarding using the GS2 email client, no arrow is shown, neither on the Exchange server using Outlook.

I hope I have helped you with your question....
[Galaxy S II General] snowfallen:
Any of you noticed a slight lag in the menu scrolling and homescreen switching (Zeam Launcher and Touchwiz aswell) after installing KH3? Seems to me like the lag SGS1 used to have in the first 2.2 FW versions.

I did a factory reset after installing the firmware, which makes it weirder still.
[Galaxy S II General] akbarhash:
Yes there is a small lag, like after shifting a few times there is a stutter once and then it is gone...

This is a frankenstein build, not official from samsung so we cant expect it to be perfect...

HK3 WIPE & NONWIPE depends on CSC you choose

I found the difference between those two CSC files:

GT-I9100-CSC-HOME-MULTI-OXAKH3.tar

and

GT-I9100-CSC-MULTI-OXAKH3.tar

---------------------------------------------------------------

It differs in script:

Script in

GT-I9100-CSC-HOME-MULTI-OXAKH3.tar

says:

--update_package=CACHE:recovery/sec_csc.zip
--wipe_cache

in

GT-I9100-CSC-MULTI-OXAKH3.tar

says:

--update_package=CACHE:recovery/sec_csc.zip
--wipe_cache
--wipe_data

Result:

The one without "home" in its name WIPES data partition.

So we have two versions: WIPE and NON WIPE!
[Galaxy S II General] omrij:
not exactly

the tar has data.img which overwrite the /data partition

so both of them will eventually wipe

unless you delete this file from the tar...

[Galaxy S II General] sobelixtus:
Damn. I flashed KH3 yesterday, made full factory reset and now battery is draining more than ever before. I took phone from charger this morning (100% charged) and after three hours I had 84% left. Screen was ON only for 3,5 min and rest of the time phone was on the table screen off. Android OS took 59% having 34min running time. I noticed from stats that phone was constantly waking up for some reason? Now I have system monitor running so I'll find out what is causing this huge drain. Somehow I suspect Fancy Widgets because that seems to wake up processor every 30min even the weather update time is set to 3 hours.

I'll post what I find out (if anything...)
[Galaxy S II General] Jigsy75:
I would give the phone a few days the battery will improve after that. I find when trying different ROM's that the first day is the worst. After that things tend to settle down.
[Galaxy S II General] julroy67:
I updated to XXKH3 and as far as I can say, it is really satisfying.
[Galaxy S II General] flatnote31:
Been on KH3 for almost a week. Having removed most of Samsung bloatware, things are running smooth and battery life is very reasonable.

Can't expect one release to magically extend the battery runtime by 500%, it's just the bits and bobs that drain the battery and some optimization, but no breakthroughs *me thinks*
[Galaxy S II General] sohanlon07:
Whacking this on now. Hope there's some improvement.
[Galaxy S II General] sobelixtus:
Well, removing Fancy Widgets and IMO beta seems done the trick. Now phone does not wake up randomly anymore and battery is lasting much longer. Android OS is still the biggest contributor, but it doesn't drain battery so much anymore.

So far so good...
