Also, I don't believe there is an option to convert back to RFS in CWM recovery on Cog5, I'm not sure about AtomicFusion.
[Captivate Android Development] mattern1974:
You may want to try flashing a KF1 Rom such as the original Cog 5 and not v2 which converts automatically to EXT. Then try flashing this rom
[Captivate Android Development] mattern1974:
There may be an option to turn lagfix off but I think the EXT conversion is not done by CWM but by a script made by DG.

Drag racing

Love this app. Found it alot of updates ago. Props to the developers for continuing to update and improve the game.

My drag racing name is Nikneverwins. (Its just a clever name) add me and lets race.

Btw latest update. 1.1.3. Did something to pro league to prevent cheating. I'm not a cheater but my level nine got disqualified and 4708 rank points were lost. Level 1 4307 points lost.

I love the game so I am not too mad, as long as I know that the update will stop cheaters who take the fun out of the game.

look for me on the track!!!

3.Insert Battery

4.Hold the vol down butt and at the same time connect the Other side of the cable into the phone then you will see

Bricked SGS 2 GT-I9100

Hi guys,

I really need some help here.

I recently updated my phone to RootBox JB 4.1.2

Everything went well.

After I had reintall all the apps, that was when i notice something unusual happened.

The phone just rebooted and when it is booted, it rebooted again.

This is like a loop. And I noticed that before it rebooted it show the screen with a drained battery icon.

But my battery was over 80% charged.

What i could think of was to go to recovery mode and reflash the ROM from sd card.

I could go into recovery mode, I can scroll in the recovery mode menu. However I cannot choose any f the functions in the menu.

It is like the 'power button' is not responding.

I repeat the whole process and the same thing happened.

The next thing I can think of is using Odin since my phone still allowed me to go into download mode.

So i used Odin to transfer firmware version 4.0.3 ICS XWLP3.

In the Odin screen everything went as it should and showed PASSED.

However, when the phone is trying to install the files (the big green android icon),

it stopped in the process. The screen was showing the green android icon and followed by the 'drained battery' icon then

to show the green android icon. the process is like a loop. I can't get beyond this.

I would appreciate any help from here

Thank you.

OK.... So It looks like u have installed the 4.0. 3 rom.... First of all u need to charge ur battery... Then go to recovery mode.... Do 1.full wipe/factory reset

2.clear delvik cache

3.fix permission

Done...

If this doesn't work thn frm download mode flash any latest siyah KERNAL which has 6. + cwm which allows touch screen recovery as considering that ur power button dnt work in recovery...

N thn flash any 4.1.1 rom or ur stock rom... Bt dnt forget to do three steps

Full wipe clear cache and fix permission..

Bricked SGS 2 GT-I9100

Thank you xda_nightfury.

I cannot go into recovery mode now.

When i try to go into recovery it will show a green android icon ( as if still installing from previous odin flash)

But it just freezes there.

I can only go into download mode.

And i do not know how i can do factory reset and wipe dalvik cache from here.

Is it because my previous rom was a rooted rootbox JB 4.1.2 ver 3.0 that cause this

inability to flash to 4.0.3 rom?

I will try siyah kernel 6+ as suggested.

Can you direct me or provide the link to the siyah kernel?

Afraid to get wrong version.

I halve a problem almost like yours. I will delete the thread I did for my problem and transcribe it here, since it's the right place.

Hi, I´m having a problem with my phone. Possible Hardware, but I still have some hope. Yesterday, I was puting the phone to charge, but it didn't start charging. Only after the third try. This morning, when the alarm set of and I was going to stop it, the phone fell (half a meter) and now I cant turn it on. Power button doesn't do nothing. If I plug it to the charger or to the computer, it starts looping with the battery icon with a circle inside, then with the green battery almost full, and then all over again and again. If I press down while this happens I cand get into download mode. I Tried to flash a rom from odin (no repartition, only PDA, PHONE and CSC) and, and it went ok, but it didn't solve my problem. The loop still continues, but now the green battery doesn't apear. Instead for only half a second the "android icon" that apears while installing a rom apears. And it continues looping.

I already tried another battery. Flashing the rom from odin, the Jig doesn't power the phone, so I can't reset the counter ( I don't know if it was possible with my bootloader. I was on the leaked JB 4.1.2 with Philz kernel). Is there anything else I can do with odin and the download mode? I don't know anything about pit files or anything else.

Instaled OLD bootloader with odin, but the jig still doesn't power on the phone

I can't reset the counter, so I think warranty won't cover. If they say it's expensive the repair I was thinking I could open the phone myself and maby change the usb pcb. I found a video on youtube with the same thing that happens to my phone.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDc46WUK95w

I Tried repartitioning with pit file. nothing changed. Still looping.

Sorry to post here but if anyone could help it would be great ;).

I foolishly attempted to change the size of two partitions using a pit file. I didnt quite complete the directions of the site ..or follow them exactly as i forgot to check repartition in odin. In doing so my phone would stay on the galaxy logo forever. I tried a couple tar files until i finally found the right one(you wouldnt believe how many s2s models and etc. There are...) odin had it nearly finished but it was stuck at the recovery.bin. i read that i may have to repartition it with an original pit file and yes i ticked the box this time. this time it was stuck on the repartion part for way too long. I had no choice to take it off to attempt anything else...and sure enough it will not boot up again. No recovery mode no download mode etc...just a blue led of death.....And worst of all im having problems installing riffbox and or jtag on windows 8 .

Tried posting in the D2G Dev forum but it seems to be a ghostland. Maybe someone here will notice and be able to help.

So I just picked up this D2G from eBay. The guy said it was stuck on Bootloader and he couldn't get an SBF to stick so I thought I'd give it a try. Sure enough it is stuck on D0.11, battery OK, usb, connect to program, etc Bootloader on boot. I've tried to SBF .330 twice via Linux (I know how to do this, I've SBF'd a DX dozens of times) and done wipe data/cache and cache solo. I've gone into bootloader via the up button + power method, and recovery works via x + power too. It still boots straight into bootloader. Ideas?

[Galaxy S II General] cigaro78:
I'm tired of these threads. It's not like samsung sold some phones with good battery life and some without. They are ALL the EXACT SAME.

You can't have a 'better' battery life than another SGS2 user. You can't have a 'worse' battery life either. What matters is usage.

Anyone can get 'incredible' battery life - simply install any ROM such as cog or vr, and do a full wipe. Install only 10 apps, and use the phone sporadically, dare I say, use the phone 'as a phone'.

What I'm trying to say is that the people reporting 52 hours of battery life or what not simply do not use the phone as much as others do. If it sounds logical, that's because it is.

There is no 'magic pill'. I get 54h on standby because despite having 205 apps, I used betterbatterystats to uninstall the worst offenders. But today for example I got 6h out of my battery because I spent 3h hours with the screen on, 1 hour on GPS navigation in my car, 1 hours taking pictures with the flash on, 1 hour playing angry birds. 205 apps, endless memory resident programs, custom-everything, even my wallpaper is 3d with 16x MSAA through CF3d, what did I expect?

The whole Iphone comparison is also whack. I own an iphone 4. Sure when stock the thing flies and stays on battery like you wouldn't believe. But try to customize it and you'll find the same problems that you find on android. Plus, it's twice as heavy as my sgs2 :)

@cc999 Thanks for posting your experiance about battery life, don't bother about angry birds. They can't get laid than express anger on your thread :D :P.

@cigaro78 You are sooo wrong! The batteries are not all the same. It depends on many factors (how they are stored before shipping, and lotof thing).

Last year i did some test on 5 exact same new mobile phones (samsung omnia i900) and 2 of them have battery wear of 24%.

So the point is that you coud buy a new phone with some percentage of damaged battery.

Thats a first thing, the second thisng is that firmware (battery optimisation) could extremely reduce or extend battery life, depanding on optimisation.

I tried 5 firmwares, 3 of them 2.3.3 and 2 - 2.3.4. (all stock roms)

Best battery experience I had with 2.3.3 XWKF3 (2.3.3), and the worst on XXKH3 (2.3.4), but for some users 2.3.4 is way better for battery.

I can't get over 16h of normal usage at all. (1h phone talk, 50-80 messages, 25 emails, 30 mins on internet (3G) and about 20 mins of playing amtale). DIsplay usage is 44% (auto), 25% Voice calls, 10% android OS, Internet 9% Android system 8% etc...
