[Galaxy S II Android Development] frater:
Ignorant as I am I expected an ICS-ROM, so I did a full data wipe before upgrading.

Not a big problem as I regularly backup with Titanium for which I have paid.

I made use of the Google restore, so most of my apps got installed.

My Mail, Contacts and Agenda are on my Zarafa-server (fork of Exchange4Linux) and they restored just fine within a snap.

I did however immediately receive a message from my Provider T-Mobile NL that I only have 200 MB of data remaining before I get throttled.

What a sham. I've always had a flat rate contract, but because my HTC-HD2 broke half a year ago (after 1 year) they replaced my contract. A while ago the Telecom providers considered charging for competitive services like Skype and Whatsapp...

Anyhow, this is about the Checkrom v6.

It's working great and soon I can install the ICS-theme I like. I came from v5 and that was running fine as well.

I also installed the redpill kernel. I wouldn't know if it's that better than NEAK or the others... It looks attractive (the logo).. I guess I'm sensitive for that.

With the risk of sounding like a spoiled kid I would like to know when I can more or less expect an ICS on my Galaxy S2. Last year I thought I would be running it for sure around this time...

I also have an Asus Transformer that I really like to see upgraded. This honeycomb was a bit disappointing and I even prefer gingerbread.

Thank you again for this great ROM and your efforts to improve on an already excellent product!!!

Neak 1.3.3 works with this rom. I am using it atm. No SOD.

Oh man, Leo. Just when i finished porting my themes, you come up with this.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Flasher8:
THANKS mate! you are right, from CM9 and i flash CF root then reboot and flash the redpill. Everything is ok now.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] LeoMar75:
Nope, we will attach the new cwm zip in few minutes!

p.s.

For those ppl who has having troubles with V6, 100% is due to your messy system..

We have flashed checkROM v6 with and without fullwipe, no issue at all!

Maybe you are trying to do crazy stuff with Titanium Backup... this app can break everything if you don't know how it works.....

Small CleanUp

Since i'm on on 192 DPI i've done a small cleanup in Checkrom 6.0, Dive/Kies/Samsung Hub/Touchwiz and widgets... etc.. gone

Initialy there are 132 apps in System/app, after cleanup only 84... :p

=> Rom is now under 190Mo (included Go launcher, go contacts, Playerpro.. LBE, DroidWall, Google+, GoSms, Swiftkey, Titanium, Dolphin, BusinesCalendar...).. :)

Any one have gotted a random reboot?

I have done the normal things to flash, factory reset, wipe cache and then install the V6.

in this morning, while a create my google account to get my emails the system reboot.

I have got this random too on the stock versions some times.

Ok, after wiping and formating everything also sd card, now market is working fine, my apps are being downloaded just now. :) Still I don't know nothing about how to make kitchen work on red pill kernel, I will try to install CWM ontop of redpill recovery.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] k4bbe:
I've noticed im having lots of random soft restarts. Phone doesn't switch off completely but loses connection and does all the start up stuff after the boot logo etc. Full wipe install, no uv oc on both Siyah and Redpill.

Any body else have similar issues?

[Q] CheckROM RevoHD™ V6

Hello, finally saw the update and it comes with a questions:

CheckROM RevoHD™ V6 still based on 2.3.6?

Is the Installation from the App 2.x fixed or still need to do it manually?

have any news about the ICS Source for SGSII?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pacifiste95:
There's no big difference beetween v4 and v6? :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] colliderz:
I am having issues with WIFI connectivity. It works for like 1 minute then dies again.

I have done 2X factory reset. Changed kernels. Still the same

Anyone with some good piece of advice ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zikarus:
Strange. Try to factory reset/wipe cache/dalvik/format system and flashing v6 TWICE.

If you have used Voltage Control before try to delete all previous settings.

GT 9100 tapatalking
[Galaxy S II Android Development] XDA mark:
1. Im pretty sure it is

3. ICS sources from Samsung are expected somewhere is March, hopefully in the beginning. I base this on the fact that the official ICS update from Samsung is planned for release in March, if I am not mistaken very early next month. Once the official ICS update is out, the source should come as well. At least that's how I know the story.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ITRC:
Flashed V6 without any problems so far ... thank u LeoMar and Gadgetcheck.

One hour now on V6 with no errors on restore apps etc ... only its seems like KL1 for me is bit slower as KI4. But too early to confirm that!

Good job to the Dev's again!

After flashing RTL mod (seems this who caused the issue) swipe option to remove notification causes status bar apk force close.

Any one can upload status bar apk for LA4 ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Don't you backup before flashing anything?

http://db.tt/OVecx7w4
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Anyone who is having problems installing the rom. As always it is advised to do a full wipe. So firstly backup your rom and apps. Then use the following guide that i used and worked fine for me

*Go into recovery

*Wipe data

*Wipe cache

*Scroll to mount and storage, go to were it says format system and press yes

*wipe dalvik cache

*flash rom

*Reboot

And that should be good enough and not encounter any problems. If you are facing market problems just go into settings-apps-find market and clear data and cache. come out and you should be able to use market properly.

Hope this little guide helps someone out there.

Regarding flashing themes as Leo said just hold and they are fixing it. If i was you guys id wait for the ICS tonight;)

Cant update to the newest kitchen in market.

Says its isn't compatible with this item.

Did clear data in market, and delete the previous kitchen 2.0
[Galaxy S II Android Development] k4bbe:
My bad. I hadnt completed the format system step.

Done that now and see how it goes.

Already looking more positive as no market installation errors or issues with updating superuser binaries, both previously present on last install.

Thanks for the heads up.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shumo:
thanks

question

after i flash v6 do i need to apply this theme from the kitchen ? or is it already included as the default ?

i ask because you say it is fixed but i presume that is fixed AFTER we install that theme from the kitchen , right /

thanks for your big work
[Galaxy S II Android Development] LeoMar75:
It has been fixed after v6 release.

Have got to say v6 is brilliant with N.E.A.K kernel. Incredibly smooth and love the spinner ;) only issue is the swiping to dismiss notifications is very hit and miss and end up having to do a few attempts. Any way to adjust the thresholds of how far you swipe across before it's dismissed?

I think ppl is still confused about the Kitchen app......

The Kitchen is like the browser of your PC: safary, chrome, firefox, opera, ****ty IE...

when you type an address you will see the website page linked to that DNS..

"websites" are our packages on the main server.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] LeoMar75:
We will decompile his theme and see if it contains stuff that can potentially break our code....

Universal theme is not possible at all :eek::eek::eek: wrong name used....

I do not have anything against Vertumus, he did a super amazing job, but he need to be a bit more clear on his thread...

Nice ROM guys, really good job.

I have recently bought S2, and dint had enough time to test everything on it. I tried few ICS roms, but wasnt happy with batter life.

Your V4 was great (i tested it for 2 days only, because V6 came out) :D

LeoMar i wonder what kernel are you using??? Because i saw that you had great battery life, few pages ago?

Thanks Marko

[Galaxy S II Android Development] XDA mark:
Download betterbatterystats app from XDA, do a search for it. It's free here on the XDA forums, or download it from the market for 1 or 2 euro.

In that app you can see what is causing your phone from going into deepsleep 'mode'. That's probably the reason your battery is draining so fast. Look for partial/kernel wakelocks.

You can also download CPU Spy 4.0 from the Market (it's free), and after a day or a few hours you can see in which state your phone spends it time most (deep sleep, 200MHz, 500, 800, etc).

Use multiple methods to find out what is draining your battery. You can also try to change Kernels. Siyah Kernel 2.6.7 is my recomandation.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] adamski123:
Try a different kernel

Siyah and speedmod r gd for battery

@Leo, quick question, just downloaded the base theme from the kitchen, and installed.. to get the charging animation on the top line I still have to show the normal battery icon..

Is it not possible to show the top bar & charging animation without having to have the battery icon displayed as well??

Cheers..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] XDA mark:
I believe there are options in JKay to turn of the battery icon.

Yep, just checked. On my older JKay version (for KL1), under status bar options there is an option to show or hide the battery icon.

Or does the top bar disapear as well if you disable the battery icon trough JKay?

Didn't you read the warning on the first post. If you are not too fussy on the top battery charging animation, you can install the themes. They work without issues.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hades_hellen:
No issues

I have been on stock XWLA4 with cf-root kernel before flashing v.6. I have done just one wipe before install and everything is fine for now. I chose the NEAK kernel after the flash. Cannot tell about the battery yet but the rom is fast and smooth.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Are you referring to something like this.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] roymustafa:
Thanks a lot bro... Very usefull...Also pressed the thanks button :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:

That what I'm think of..

I like the idea of have the top indicator displaying your level, but then think it's a bit unnesscery to have the battery icon showing as well..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zikarus:
Strange - on my device (after flashing the new stock theme via kitchen 2.21) the loading animation in the top battery indicator still shows after the device has been taken out of the docking station for at least 4-5 minutes, sometimes without stopping until a reboot.

It also takes 1-2 minutes to show up after being put into the docking station. No big deal, just wondering if this is the normal behaviour...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
there is a fix for this in the stock theme via the kitchen app which can be downloaded and flashed..

I did say i wouldn't flash any update until ICS but been as it's been nearly 3 months since i last flashed a ROM (CheckRom 4.0) and from reading the very positive reviews on here im tempted to flash this update, however i do not want to do a full wipe, i have shade of dusk theme and the 4G Launcher right now so would wiping cache and dalvik be enough for this to flash successfully?

V6 is working great. No issues whatsoever. Thanks Leo, GC.

Will you be adding the Phone Recording Mod to the Kitchen...or is there some link I can download it from ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] andrei_me:
i tried it like that, but jkay needed reflashing, the after i flashed speedmod i lost wi-fi.. so i ended up doing a full wipe, and it is flawless.. i saw that other managed to do it without a full wipe..

it'a better than v4, and the new mods are great. i'm still waiting to see the battery life. but so far. i still have 85% since this morning. with wi-fi, and games ShadowGun for 30 min. i think it is worth it, and the theme will be update soon:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ImpheOtus:
It should be enough.

But after flashing v6 you WILL lose Shade of Dusk and the 4G launcher.

However, Shade of Dusk for v6 is already available here:
