yep...i had some of my local buds and those from the note threads to switch to cm or aokp based roms as well, with the ics problems in our phones, these are the safest...tried PA yet mate? best cm9 based rom, imho, so far and with them going open source i expect a lot will implement their work as well (much like what CM has done for their latest builds now, which have a lot of PA codes and tweaks)...

---------- Post added at 05:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:44 PM ----------

why dont you ask the RR experts here ;) ... seriously though when i tried it before there was a problem with the haptic feedback from them...it can be both a rom and kernel problem...try to flash another kernel and see if it fixes it...most of the time though they would ask you do reflash your rom without wiping as to make the vibration work...you can try that as well...:p
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Yeah, have tried ParanoidAndroid... pretty impressive really. However, I can see it creating a lot of small questions from newbie users about DPI because it has a lot of configurable options with regards to that are.

CM9 is just install and go kinda ROM, where with PA you have to actually set it up first before you will get optimal user experience.
[Galaxy S II General] johnfranz29:
i tried hydra and resurrection rom but the problem is the same, it duplicates my gallery and music files, pictures, video and songs. any idea about this guys?

[Galaxy S II General] johnfranz29:
Nope, i do full wipe before installing the rom...

I'm thinking of rooting my phone because I'm already bored with it but I am still confused with this

"CF-Root is simply a customised version of the clockwordmod recovery. It still functions the same but cf-root has it's own app for making direct recovery calls from within android as CF-root doesn't function with Rom manager, where pure clockworkmod recovery does work with rom manager." source: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1246131

Does this mean I could not flash a custom rom if i use cf-root?

Been reading some threads but still could'nt find an answer DX
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Do not use ROM Manager, it has compatibility issues with SGS2s.

Yes you can flash any 9100 custom ROM that you want with CF-Root.
[Galaxy S II General] astrogambit78:
Ei.. how are you dude, hope you are having a good day..

:)
[Galaxy S II General] jermitano:
you use cf root to root and put a cwm recovery on your phone...from cwm you can flash any custom rom...i find it hard to believe that you cant find any resources about it kabayan...intratech's thread even has a step by step procedure for it...and like what gek said, dont use Rom Manager as it is not compatible to our phone
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
It is compatible but just not for applying recovery or flashing things. That's where it all goes wrong.
[Galaxy S II General] jermitano:
oh yeah i forgot, but basically with those lost functions it does look too incompatible haha :p
[Galaxy S II General] Flash05:
im not sure if i've asked this but i made a thread about this wavy lines issue when shooting under CFL/fluorescent bulbs. do you experience this? this seems to be present in Note and S3 as well. when i did my experiment, i noticed that all units including Windows with amoled has this issue. :(

[Galaxy S II General] Odeira.Oloap:
Well, we can't do anything about it.

Advice lang, if you can, keep the Flash Player APK in your computer.

I suppose Adobe recognises that HTML5 is the way forward.

The problem is, current rate of HTML5 adaptation of websites is... slow.

Hooray for them.

I suppose Samsung will give an Android 4.1 update to us, Galaxy S II users, without much problem (I don't know about me. Bell [Canada] may delay the update if we get one. Typical carrier stuff...)

If you mean restoring the stock "rom" then i guess you must have done a nandroid back up prior to installing resurrection remix , so just restore it through CWM .

[Sent from my S2]
[Galaxy S II General] shadi22:
lol mate.. that news made me laugh. if quadcore would be their standards for the update then probably budget android phones would be extinct by this year. Jellybean is basically an update of ICS with new google apps and and some tweaks to make the OS lag free. Its not like a major revamped of the OS. If samsung wouldn't update our device it's because of the "marketing factor".

**Off topic:

Guys whats your recommended radio/modem for best battery and best signal for our gs2?:confused:
[Galaxy S II General] ephraim:
Don't ever believe that site mate. They are also the one who said we will not get 4.0.4 but sammobile says we will. I believe sammobile because they have proven their credibility. Let's wait for samsung or sammobile to announce if we will get it or not :)
[Galaxy S II General] saywhatt:
we're gonna get jellybean..

eventually :p
[Galaxy S II General] glynnpel:
I'm confuse of the three reason the website listed about hardware limitation, says quad core recommended but galaxy nexus is a dual core then Jb and touchwiz would not be smooth running together so how exactly are they gonna upgrade sgs3? without touchwiz . Correct me if im wrong but is nexus s getting JB also ? and thats a single core with the same resolution as sgs2. I could be wrong.
[Galaxy S II General] ephraim:
That site is an attention whore and is full of BS. Don't believe a single word it says.

[Galaxy S II General] whitherquick:
Hey guys, SamMobile showed that there is a new firmware for our phones - DXLPB with CSC I9100OLBLPA.

Anyone tried this?
[Galaxy S II General] francis820:
No but I've installed the modem for that (DXLPA), initial impressions is that the phone is not as warm as it used to be when you use Wi-Fi Tethering and Mobile Data. It may have improvered my battery life as it lasted about 18 hours with only spending 10% battery with Wi-Fi on (my apps are set to update every hour).

Again, these are only my initial assessments... will do the proper benchmarking when time allows. :p
[Galaxy S II General] PaulitoX77:
Dear Paul,

Thank you for contacting Samsung Philippines; we appreciate the opportunity to assist you.

We regret for any inconveniences. The Ice Cream Sandwich is only available for DXLP7 and OLBLP7. As for the other baseband version, this might be under testing for compatibility and to check the performance of the unit. However, we will keep you posted as soon as the ICS for DXLP9 and DXLPB be available for update.

--- are they serious? LOL. No wonder there was no KIES update for the DXLP9 and even the laters DXLPB. Seriously? Yeah some would say flash through ODIN but i was just curious on why they didnt give the Philippines these two latest updates
[Galaxy S II General] baekwondo:
you have a point guys. How i wish...

fingerscrossed ><
[Galaxy S II General] francis820:
The only difference of our ROMs vs. other SEA ROMs is your APN settings depending on the carrier (which sometimes is outdated) and the carrier's apps preloaded in the ROM... that's it. Functionality-wise, everything's the same. Back in DXLP7, I've tried an Indonesian, Singaporean, Thai and Philippine ROMs... features are the same, bugs are even the same, but the apps and APN settings will depend on the SIM inside... I can pick Globe Postpaid on any of these versions mentioned above, and yes, they all have that m.globe app preloaded.

This leads then to the only feasible workaround since our local Samsung Support are busy enlarging their thing in the middle... flash through Odin. Heck, Odin is hardly ever used here unless you wanted to go back to stock ROM. :D

[Galaxy S II General] mixtapes08:
Something must be keeping your phone awake even in screen off that causes battery drain. Download better battery stats on playstore. Battery calibration is just for freshly installed roms. Its the same as clearing your battery stats in recovery and correct me if im wrong that i think doesnt affect your battery life.

Hi guys new here in XDA Galaxy ace to Galaxy s2 user 1 month old S2!!! ask lng po my issues ba ICS balak ko ksi mgupgrade, i read a lot about ICS na d dw gumgana gameloft and some other games when upgrade to ICS,. to2oo b 2?! need to confirm and if mgupgrade b to ICS pwd p dn mgdowngrade?
[Galaxy S II General] francis820:
I suggest if upgrading, you use the firmware for Singapore/Thailand which is basically newer (I9100DXLPB). Change mo na lang yung CSC afterwards to GLB (Globe), SMA (Smart), etc. Yung version natin ng ICS (I9100DXLP7) has reported bugs on Wi-Fi usage among other things, and they say that the new ones are the "polished" versions of the initial ICS releases.

In terms of games, I didn't have any issues with Gameloft games except Asphalt 6 HD (probably because of my st*pidity). The only other issue I encountered was in Plants Vs. Zombies which doesn't work at all.

Not all of us experienced the same thing after upgrading to ICS... some stayed on, some went back to GB, and some (like me) moved on to custom ROMs. So whatever you try, make sure you have backed up first. :cool:
[Galaxy S II General] 09168564918:

Wow great help, noted w/ thanks... not sure about CSC? How can i change it? sorry newbee here,. Im aware of rooting or custom roms since ive done it several times in my galaxy ace, but its a bit over rated (or tamad lng mgbasa) when it comes to high end phones... can you give me advise whats the most stable custom rom for 2.3.4 before i upgrade to ICS,. im still enjoying gingerbread, but some minor bugs found in 2.3.4 like random restarts but not always... Sorry for random questions but may i know if this is the best stock rom 2.3.4 KPI? or should i upgrade to 2.3.6...
[Galaxy S II General] francis820:
1. For changing CSC, on your dialpad dial *#272*imei#.

2. Not sure if there are still custom ROMs na GB-based, as most AOKPs and AOSPs are already ICS-based (some are even planning to shift to JB-based). You may wanna search one within the website, unless others here can suggest one for you.

3. The last GB that was released was 2.3.6, and it was for us back in December according to Sammobile's website (I9100DXKL3).

Oh just a tip, you may want to read the topic about the infamous Brick Bug before shifting to ICS. Click on the link for the article.
[Galaxy S II General] whitherquick:
What's the benefit of changing CSC for DXLPB? Sammobile said that the firmware is also for Philippine Region.

I usually don't change CSC even if I used european stock firmwares. It still works great even without flashing a new CSC. Changing CSC using dialpad would probably wipe the phone, ergo more hassles for the user.
[Galaxy S II General] francis820:
Changing CSCs is recommended if one gets the firmware for another country within the same region. For the more sensitive user, changing CSCs will have their APNs and carrier's apps, wallpapers, etc. pre-installed, thus no need for setting APNs manually or downloading apps from the Play Store. Also, wiping the phone when flashing is encouraged as there may be settings, system or app-related, that may conflict with the new ROM. It's pretty much like upgrading your computer's OS from XP/Vista to 7... reformatting is always better than merely putting 7 on top of your present OS.

I used European ROMs during my GB days and it worked fine, it's because I didn't need any Globe's freebies, and I prefer to set my APNs manually (which I know for both Prepaid and Postpaid by heart, mind you). I'm not scared nor get hassled by wiping my data, it's because I back up before I do so. I'm just sharing what, IMHO, are the best practices to do this... but like anyone else says, "suum cuique."

Reboot problem

Hi guys, dont know if this bug has been discussed here,. have followed a thread regarding random reboots is there a real fix for this issue does this happened to ICS since it happened to me stock 2.3.4,. i have no problems with battery or such this bug is very frustrating. Let me know for further advise...thanks
[Galaxy S II General] francis820:
Per my experience, simultaneous reboot is caused by 2 factors:

1. Conflict/error in either system/app-related files.

2. Overheating... the phone is set to reboot if temperature reaches a certain amount of degrees, not sure up to how hot before the phone reboots though.

My experience in 2.3.4 has been disastrous... short battery life, simultaneous rebooting and overheating issues are the most common. They were addressed when I upgraded to 2.3.6 and later versions.
[Galaxy S II General] Flash05:
while on GB

1. SD card causes reboot. i removed it and got fixed.

2. apps on SD. i moved it and got fixed.
