Can you *please* download this again?

Wipe data/factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache. Install the redownloaded base.

Done.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Bergaliden:
Sorry for that. Well, I can't find any Delta fix anymore from the first page under download links. That one was around in the 1.1.1 phase. I guess the content of it is included in 1.3.2? If not, where can I find it and will it actually fix my issue?

I am using:

Androidmeda_Hyperdroid-Awesome_Arae-v1.3.2-signed

Pongster-non-transparent-VRTheme-v1.3

(no surgeon)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] churchrickshaw:
noticed that i have the same problem.

I was on 1.0.0, flashed to delta one, flashed to 1.3.2, applied Doc's surgeon transparent version in between each one (to get themes and etc). Also home button wake fix was applied at the end of each update.

At the same time & each time: cache, dalvik cache and permissions where cleared after each big update.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] petsasj:
My alarm clock is working fine, and i see no apparent reason for pongster's theme to create an issue with that. I seriously cannot offer any better piece of advice other than reflashing base and theme.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Akemdwr:
May I ask about Awesome Arae — what is «arae»? I did not find this word in any English-Russian dictionary :-)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] petsasj:
It's a stellar constellation. Arae is the latin spelling (afaik), Ara is the modern spelling.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] D.O.C:
Sicopat Surgeon is up here and ready to download, He will do a post and a changelog when ready :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Bergaliden:
1. Reflashed base only (wiped data, cache, dalvik and formated /system) and still no alarm clock icon in notification bar.

2. Reflashed base + Pongster-non-transparent-VRTheme-v1.3 (wiped data, cache, dalvik and formated /system) and still no alarm clock icon in notification bar.

3. Reflashed base + Pongster_Surgeon-non-transparent-ki3-v1.3 (wiped data, cache, dalvik and formated /system) and still no alarm clock icon in notification bar.

What am I missing here?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] churchrickshaw:
i had done something similar just now.

it's not that the alarm clock doesn't work, its that the notification icon that use to be there is now gone (beside the status clock).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Bergaliden:
Exactly. The actual alarm function is working perfectly. Just the icon gone missing from the notification bar.

The lock screen picks it up though and shows next alarm.

Ver iz ze dumkopf icon? :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hyperdroid:
deleted...non functional
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] willam71:
I can also confirm this. Did a full-wipe reinstall (just to be sure) and the icon was already missing after flashing base.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bergkuh:
Same here... Did a full wipe and checked the theme. The icon is still there but missing in the bar.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] D.O.C:
ok, the alarm icon gone....jep, I dont like it showing there, I might change my mind on this maybe later, but today, I like it not being there, can you let me keep that one?:p

Ok guys, posted Delta update two which sould fix the date and time screen issue, the init.d script not working correctly and update appwidgetpicker to v1.2.3

pls the download anc chagelog here

updated my surgeon too, sicopat surgeon and theme are up, and he will post a detailed changelog later on. you can find them here

Have fun...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bergkuh:
Sounds good :) The icon isn't important for me but I wanted to confirm ;)

Btw... Just download the "Delta Update TWO" and install via CWM?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] D.O.C:
thats right....

ans whoever downloaded my surgeons the last 15 min, pls redownload :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gtizon:
Doc delta two working okay for me. Flashed over my current set up
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Darkstriker:
Can't wait for the upload of 1.3.3 to finish so I can finally get rid of good old cognition 1.5.1
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] D.O.C:
1.3.3 is the same as 1.3.2 + deltaupdate two. Just so u know
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] giga502:
is it possible to flash an external kernel such as SM?

I've been using the one that came with the ROM but i've found it to be horrible at saving battery life. Today it's been four hours and its already down to 49%.

Yes I calibrated it and I'm not using many my phone heavily. Only the occasional text and around 40 minute usage of the stock Music app.

I'm sorry but unless there are some wakelocks going on that I havn't identified I'm going to have to say that this battery life is terrible..

Unless i'm doing something totally wrong.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Darkstriker:
Well I had the time anyways. Now downloading 1.3.3.

Kinda curious about the claim of 2 day battery life. That would be extraordinary. I'll see soon I guess.

Does tegrak's app work with your kernel so I could do some UV? Or do you do that already?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] s2d4:
I like this feature! I don't need the phone to constantly tell me that I have alarm set... Kind of a waste of space, If I had set it, it is set... It won't automatically go missing just coz the icon is not there..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] aalupatti:
Quick review.

Pros

- Damn fast.

-Best battery life. I use my phone a lot and used to get barely make a day( morning till night) with a single charge. However now i have around 30% left at the end of a the day

- Very stable.

- As the name suggests '' this is a stopper for rom hopper" I used to flash roms almost every few days . ( the most i have stayed with a rom was gingerbread rom ) . THis rom beats it .

I have been on this rom since release and find no reason to change

Con

- I hate the first page of this thread. Very confusing. Especially the updates.

Always confused about what to update even after nearly 4 weeks of use.

Did i say 4 weeks. Wow. No new rom in 4 weeks

edit : i like the alarm icon. However in 1.32 i dont get an icon Can i get it back ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
Home Boutton doesnt work ;) when its sleeping u cant wake it up with the home boutton, u should always press the power boutton to do that for u!!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] churchrickshaw:
i can understand how the thread might seem confusing. however, it's by far the most detailed posts out there for ROMs. it tells you exactly what the ROM includes, what it does, changelogs and etc. Is this not better than just saying, flash it. cwm. youareonyourown.

if you skip a few pages ahead, both the devs and other posters explain how to flash, what to flash and what scripts, themes and updates mean.

home button hotfix is one of the first few posts at the beginning of the thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1288850&page=2
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] s2d4:
Refer to hotfix here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18115930&postcount=11.

sorry mate, perfectly clear to me here.... This is a genuine question, Is it because english is not ur first language? It's not mine either as I am chinese but I don't have any problems.

EDIT: umm, its not even a rom review but a thread review...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] thanksgiving60:
im experiencing slight lag with this kernel

no UV or OC
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] s2d4:
have u tried a different governor? I quite like the smartassv2
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] aalupatti:
Not the language but the amount of information for a rom. I am not complaining at all. Just pointing out what I felt and have seen few others experiencing
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] s2d4:
I think this level of info is awesome, they don't have to so they are putting into extra effort so people will not screw up.

Ppll will learn stuff if they just read, what they are doing goes pretty well with XDA and the open source spirit.

If only samsung would be as so niice to put their time into some sort of a changelog...

I know u r not complaining, but wanting less information seems rather odd
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Radikaal:
Im experiencing some strange issue that doesnt go away with V1.3.2... my phone gets very hot after flash, i download setcpu and see it gets locked at 1200MHz.

I have done everything to try to solve it, killed running services, 3 full WIPEs and reinstalls, always the same. Doesnt matter if i just install the base, or base+surgeon.

I even tried another kernel, and redownloaded the file and tried again, no luck.

I always do factory reset, dalvik wipe and format system, install the baserom and when i start it it locks at it, even after reboots.

Wtf can the problem be? :confused:

I have had CPU locking like this before some single time, but then always a dalvik wipe and reflashing kernel helped, doesnt now.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gtizon:
Try changing governor. Try scaling it down to a lower clockrate. Actually better if you use no frills. Try changing scheduler. Then report back.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Galaxy_Fan:
It would be great if pongster surgeon next release come with dsp manager please
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mariotme:
Hey guys can somone link me to DSPmanager thread cant seem to find it or am getting blind :/

Any plans to update this fine ROM to XXKI4 ? Intratech mentioned it's alot better than XXKI3
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cescof:
Sorry guys but i don,t remember... if i use a theme (es sicopa) it has a script or i've to install both???

Regards
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] petsasj:
If you want to use just the theme, then download the VRtheme. If you want the surgeon itself - which already contains a theme - then download the surgeon.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bergkuh:
May a little bit ot but I've a question... ;) I've removed this apps via Root Explorer. Now I've check Titanium Backup and in the end of my list the entries of the removed apps are still there. Please have a look:

Is it "correct" or would a surgeon also remove these entries? Don't got any fc's or else but I just want to have a clean system by myself ;) Thanks for advance for your answers.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] petsasj:
Yes, surgeons remove these items. If you have booted up the base then installed the surgeon the corresponding data files for all apps will be left as they were created for the base to boot up.

Hit batch => Remove Orphan data

And it will remove those empty entries
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bergkuh:
Ah okay, thanks for your - really really fast - advice... Entries are gone :) So my method is a bit different but the same like a surgeon?!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] petsasj:
Well there is only one way to delete applications. But if you have booted up once with all those applications in your ROM, then all the apps will create an entry in /data/data. And you have to remove those entries.

Same goes for surgeons. If people apply base, reboot fully with the base installed, then apply a surgeon which removes some applications, those /data/data entries will still be there and they would have to remove them either manually or via Titanium.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bergkuh:
Thanks for your explanation petsasj! Learned something new again :) Titanium helped me to get rid of the entries in data/data/ and everything looks working fine ;)

May I will try a surgeon by myself and apply it to my modded theme, but I don't think I've to wipe anymore... This ROM is a definitely "The ROM Hopper Stopper" ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] petsasj:
Good to hear that ;). If you need anything feel free to ask.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Link2Adi:
i just flashed the delta 2 update.

But when powering on the device, Instead of showing Galaxy S II, its showing an error called "Logo.jpg draw failed" on top left corner.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pongster:
did you reboot again?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Link2Adi:
yes i Did..... thrice
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Darkstriker:
So I tried to install the Doc Theme on 1.3.3 but the system doesnt boot after installing it. The surgeon worked though.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] s2d4:
Maybe pongster or doc can reply but I just had a look at the delta two update zip file, I can't see anything touching the bootlogo at all...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] demonious:
petsasj I like your theme and your surgeon. The removal of those unnecessary apps and etc.. However I thought I still prefer a deodexed rom over an odexed one. I've read about deodex rom is easy on ram and tweaks but odexd ones are reversed but easy on space. Not sure how true it is BUT I've still carried on with your theme and customisation.

Would you like to provide a lil explanation why you wana do an odexed one?

-Happy User
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pongster:
No bootlogo stuff since v1.1... that logo.jpg happens when you flash a bootlogo... only on 1st boot though...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] petsasj:
Well I prefer odexed files for the reasons you mentioned, only you mentioned it wrong ^_^.

Odexed file, apart from the obvious faster boot times, to my knowledge offer less RAM consumption, as the application is smaller in size to begin with. The applications, odexed or deodexed, are roughly the same size when running on the foreground, however when an application is running on the background, as a service or as an onSaveInstaceState(), it has a far less impact on RAM. The big disadvantage of odexed files are they are a nightmare to modify (deodex, modify, odex back again) and themeing wise, there's a big abundancy in deodexed applications rather than odexed ones. However, for the second part (deodexed themes) i have included a small How-to on my post.

I attach a little peak of my RAM consumption. One could argue that since we have a 1GB RAM, there's no need to be as strict (which I agree with), but most services/apps removed in my surgeon not only consume RAM, but also a lot of battery (Maps, DRM provider, software update, fotaclient etc etc etc)

Help me please! suddenly it happens me this!! Drain battery a lotttt! I didnt install or do anything at all...

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] petsasj:
Have you tried, say, rebooting?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rufolo:
say,...of course
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] petsasj:
Well, whatever it is, your phone hasn't gone in deepsleep since you unplugged it. It could either be an app that you installed from the market. I had that once, and all i did was reboot, and all was well.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rufolo:
thx for the answer...let's hope some "Cooker" could have a look at the files and tells me exactly what could it be
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] D.O.C:
Rufolo, in ur case i would reflash and start over, sth is wrong with ur configuration or app. That screenshot u showed is not normal behavioir for this or anu build/kernel,

Your device is obviouly trying to do something for the last 2 hours and cannot do it :(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] demonious:
Sweet. I've to credit android forums for my misinformation there~ lols. Now im sold and I appreciate your efforts. And great that you included jkay latest package along natively so to speak.

Side-note: hope jkay will include bounce effect in his next packages, really like his remove overscroll glow tweak cos i really get irritated on browser+overscroll effect sometimes. But smt seems to be missing after removing it
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] TecQuality:
what about the 'double tap' apk? i seen it into the jkay pics ...

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mach0boi:
1 Q for me, can I flash doc's surgeon script then flash Pongster's theme over it?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] aalupatti:
For those having issues.

First do a full install.

Restart

Format everything.

Reinstall again.

Worked for me.

Running butter smooth
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] matiasmanzo:
yes works fine

sry bad eng
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] RejjvarN:
which script are you using? your tip dosnt work with Pogsters Surgeon anyways...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] TecQuality:
this means: wipe everything? or reinstall the stock rom and then flash the aquila over it?

the correct procure will be:

1) CWM install aquila (wipe and format internal sd)

2) CWM install surgeon (Pongster transparent curtain Ki3 v1.0)

3) CWM install theme (Pongster Surgeon transparent curtain Ki3 v1.0)

correct? however right now i'm onto the VR3 so i need to erase everything or not?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mach0boi:
You dont need to install the theme if you're going to flash the surgeon script. Theme is included ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] TecQuality:
Okay, but the surgeon script had issues or not? can i change the font?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pongster:
as a workaround while we look into the issue... please delete the Mms.apk from the vrtheme/system folder inside the zip... then reflash after fresh flash.

I'm using the mms.apk themed successfully so we need to find out why its not working for some.

Sorry for any inconvenience.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mach0boi:
Pongster surgeon script has an issue of mms.apk disappearing when flashed even when coming on full wipe. I just tried it and can confirm it. That's why I asked if it's possible to flash Doc's surgeon then Ponster's theme.

Yes you can change the font :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] TecQuality:
so we must do

a first

flash

without

the mms.apk and then

reflash with

the mms.apk?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] demonious:
Couldnt work. Maybe I should flash rom + surgeon again but holding back a while more.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] petsasj:
Have you enabled USB Debugging? Menu > Applications > Development.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] demonious:
Yes enabled and it works but when disabled computer dont seem to recognise phone.

Have a bad hunch might be incompatible kernel, nobody have had speedmod with androidmeda rom from my own searches lol
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] petsasj:
Why dont you just leave it enabled then? :p

untick usb debugging, the select it again and reboot. it should work.

Hey guys maybe someone already asked but im dependent on my phone for couple days. Ive been runin this amazing rom for couple days and found one problem. In market, nearly every second app is telling me that its not compatible with my device, even though I know it worked before, so I cant even download it, anyone has the same issue with market or possible solution? Thx a lot
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] demonious:
Its viable, just slower. no more ''plug n play'' =(

A negative again. Phone show up bottom right of desktop as unknown device again. Basically phone is just able to only charge when debug is off. Its strange.

But this doesnt bother me much. I just found that trying to open up date and time under settings FCs.. Any fixed solutions for this?
