Ok I have a bit of a perplexing problem....

Ive been trying to log onto my school email account which is maintained through Microsoft outlook, and it continually tells me i have the wrong password even though i don't.

So Why post here you ask??

Because i grabbed my friends phone and was able to log on no problem????? I tried both stock browser and maxathon browser and still can't log in??? But can log in from other phones and computers. Anyone know something that i don't???

Oh yeah running latest siyah 2.4 and latest checkrom w/ bravia engine and gingerbread rotation.

Can't say I'm having this problem, after reboot, my Wifi is at "full" before media scanning is finished..

I've not change modem / kernel after flashing v4.. ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lejur:
I have a tiny little problem!

This ROM looks absolutely amazing, and I most definitely like the KitchenPro app.

So, coming from Androidmeda, I wiped everything, installed the last base and opened the kitchen. I selected the files I wanted to flash, waited patiently, and pressed on install.

It rebooted into CWM as it supposed to, but, EVERY single file gets an "installation aborted". I saw like 200 letters moving each second xD.

So please, does anyone know how to solve this problem? Many thanks!

About the Wifi issue to specific wifi hotspots someone posted a file some pages back and worked for me.

About the low signal, happened to me only once and i've no idea what actually fixed it cause i tried several things (went back to cf-kernel, changed modem, wiped dalvik cache, erased a few apps that wasn't really needed etc.).

About the homescreen stutter issues tha was mentioned some postz beforw i have to say that i was very annoyed by this as well when after 3months i discovered that a widget was the reason. A bad written widget was causing the stuttering so try and remove every widget one by one to find which one is causing it.

In general good battery life, no issues at all (except the 5.1 with headphones when watching a movie..oh well :-P )

This rom is indeed a masterpiece.

Most of the problems you are facing are either problems that you would have with the stock rom as well (most of the issues that are mentioned have already been posted as kk5 stock rom issues) or due to

1. no full wipe

2. wrong order of mods installed (this is d a m n important)

3. not searching a bit or following the instructions given

4. apps with data from previous roms (2.3.4/5) or simply apps that aren't compatible with 2.3.6 yet

5. no idea of what you are doing./flashing

6 not creating a backup before trying anything

and the list goes on...

Anyway before posting your problems at least try the basics.. You will feel much better if u actually find the solution yourself..

@lejur flash/install each mod separate and in the correct order. And if kitchen doesn't install them for some strange reason files are downloaded into download/REVO/. Install them manually through cwm.

Btw i already pm'd a moderator. Why the hell Search button is written in invisible font :-|
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alexdk:
look into you sdcard and if u have a folder with the name, clockworkmod...delete it.

Anyway you can still install everything from CWM.

When you downloaded from the kitchen, they will be downloaded to the sdcard.......downloade-----checkrom_revo. U can still use them when u are in the CWM.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lejur:
Thanks lads! that helped!

Only one more question, this search function is killing me...

What is the correct order of flashing mods?

Many thanks in advance lads!

Deleting the CWM folder did not help though :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alexdk:
Get into the CWM recovery

I always make a ful wipe before I install a new ROM.

Into the CWM/recovery

Wipe Data/factory reset

Wipe Cache

Wipe Dalvik-Cache

Install the version of the ROM.

Remember to make a beckup of everything you need to save if you have something with TB.

which kernel are you using and what does your CWM?

What are u try to install?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] s1lenz:
love checkrom 4.0, hands-down smoothest, fastest rom ive ever used so thank you for the effort.

when i try to run quadrant standard it locks up the phone and/or reboots. anybody else experiencing this? checkrom v4 w/ siyahkernel 2.4.1. thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marcadam:
You need to delete the clockworkmod folder on the external sd, not the internal sd.

Those ROM install tips are the ones I always follow too :)

I am using the standard CF ROOT kernel, will flash Siyah and test it again.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] LBTaylor1984:
If your wondering how to make this look, i'll explain as I was having no luck doing it, I went off to find out myself.

Download

Go Launcher EX

Snowdrift Weather

Smooth Calendar

Minimalist Text

The icons for the launcher are found http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18427750&postcount=5998

And assign them to the relative icon.

I chose in Preferences

Preferences >Visual Settings>Icons>Icons Size = Large

Preferences >Visual Settings>Font>Apps Labels Color = I chose a midgrey

Preferences >Screen Settings>Grid Size = Standard

Preferences >App Drawer Settings>Grid Size = Standard

Preferences >Advanced Settings>High Quality Drawing = Y

Then Choose the Snowdrift widget 4x2

>Set it up to your locale

>Tick "Fallback to Yr URL"

>Tick "Use transparent background"

>Widget font color "Mid Grey"

>Widget day/time color "Cyan Blue"

Then Choose the Smooth Calendar

Settings

>Untick "Show Menu"

>Untick "Show the detailed layout"

>Tick "Transparent Background"

>Tick "Show Colour"

>Change "Text Colour" to Cyan Blue

>Choose "Sketchy" as the Icon style under "Skin"

Then choose Minimalist Text 1x1

>Tap to access setup

>Untick "Show Background"

>Custom Layout, Press and hold text icons and drop into the bin.

>Press the little icon with the green bar across it to create a second row

>Press the little + Icon, Scroll along to "Battery Level" and drop it on the top row

>Repeat and scroll along to "Battery Voltage" and drop it on the top row

>Back out to the main setup

>Find "Text Style" and tap "Accented" choose "Cyan Blue"

>the tap "Normal" and choose "Mid Grey"

Also if you like extended controls add a 2x1 and put your most used icons (2) and then make the make it transparent, with mid grey icon colour, and a black outer blur.

Any questions just ask :)

Kitchen working perfectly for me.

After a full wipe i have GadgetCheck Revo v4, installed Syiah 2.1.1 and now i have cf-root kernel kk5.

At least with cf i dont seem to have issues with cwm counting or kitchen not installing stuff. I just downloaded and flashed the font pack just to try and get sure that everything is fine and indeed i dont have that issue so i have no idea why so many ppl are facing this issue.

Tried to wipe kitchens cache? Uninstall, reinstall? Wipe Dalvik/partition cache? Delete clockwork... file and install a kernel with cwm v5?

Maybe Settings - Remove cached packages inside the kitchen app and try again? Seriously i cannot understand why..

I've a question regarding the jig. I flashed checkrom on the phone of a friend and when I wanted to use the jig the phone entered the mode it should, but didn't reset the counter and status. I thought maybe the jig is broken so I tried it on my owm phone and everything was fine.

Is there anything else I can try to make the jig work on her phone, like clear cache or something and try again? Thanx!!!

Hey guys!

Finally switched to the newest ROM version, but instantly got an issue: I did a full wipe and after setting up my google account, the market starts downloading my apps. But already after ~ five apps, the market is telling me, that there isn't enough space to download any further apps. o.O Trust me, there IS enough space, but the market won't believe me... Is there any problem with the actual market version? Or did I do a mistake? Tried to wipe cache/dalvik & stuff again as well, but still got this issue. :(

I know, this probably isn't ROM specific, but any help would be appreciated. :)

Edit:

Some more random cache/dalvik clearing now solved the issure... Strange, but I'm fine with it. ^^
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maranello69:
the other phone must have been flashed with a firmware that has the new Samsung bootloader, so you must flash back the old bootloader that can allow the jig to properly work

flash the old bootloader as PDA or Bootloader in Odin, then try again with the jig

[Galaxy S II Android Development] marcadam:
I had a clockworkmod folder on both my internal and external sd cards, in order to install directly from the kitchen I had to rename the one on the external sd card (rather than delete it as I didn't want to lose my backups). I wouldn't have a clue why the kitchen doesn't like that folder in that location but there you go if you've got the same problem give it a go and see for yourself.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] barondebxl:
Amazing rom, i love how gou can make it your own. but i ran into a small problem. my status bar is vone and i cant see notifications or clock and battery percentage. help plz thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
i am not a dev or advanced as some people but for some people if they do not know what they are saving in that folder they would lose their backups...And no need to delete folders because if you go to recovery and install the zips directly from the checkrom folder that is already on your sdcard that is enough to work..Mind you i am going back to like v3....well good job that you saved it your backups somewere else..But to ask to delete cwm folder were you have all your backups its abit stupid in my eyes...what if someone did not do what you did? they would lose all their backups that they have saved...completely nonsense if you ask me..:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AMDPOWERFIST:
Hi guys,

I have a quick question.

When you do a Nandroid Backup from CWM. Is that essentially creating a full image of the phones ROM / Kernel / Modem / User & System apps / Settings etc etc ?

Or will there be some slight differences upon a restore.

Reason i ask is i want to test out a few different themes, and I always make a backup before and after an install of a new ROM so that way I can revert back if there is issues, and i can test out themes and stuff after a new ROM has "made the cut"...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
yes basically as your phone is now with all your apps and kernel theme and everything else that is what is saved as your backup...No changes upon restore the way you save it buddy that is how your restore will be
[Galaxy S II Android Development] erickgoldner:
Hey... sorry if it's a dumb question but i want to try this rom and wanted to clear a doubt:

Im on 2.3.4 XWKI4 stock rooted with Cf-Root. When i go to Recovery i get a Android recovery (3e) with blue (not orange).

How should i proceed to install this rom?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
That is the newest recovery version 5..Just go ahead and flash it like normal..Just make sure you make a backup
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mynamesteve:
It wont backup your modem/radio iirc
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jroyalty7:
Sorry hate to repost but is there anyone that can test this out for me... It just makes no damn sense that i can't log on through my phone??!!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] erickgoldner:
Thanks for the quick answer.

I guess i have this recovery because i didn't flash another kernel with kTool as mentioned in the Removing Yellow Triangle video that its on the first page.

He mentioned that if i didn't do that, the yellow triangle will return when i flash another kernel.

So, should i do that now? Which kernel should i use?

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maestropetr:
Agree with deleting that folder but thing that if some body is able to flash this ROM will not be that stupid to delet all backups. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] manniakk:
it seems i don`t get a notification when i plug usb otg adapter... on stock rom my otg is working fine. does somebody experience the same issue?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marcadam:
I agree with you totally, deleting your backup folder is not a good idea. I always periodically make a backup on my pc, backing up your backups is always a good idea. The new version of cwm 5.0.2.7 gives you the option to backup to and restore from internal sd, so having moved the files my problem is solved. Having to reboot and install kitchen tweaks, themes.... manually was getting to be a right ball break.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
true...but the way it has been asked to do is delete the whole folder which includes the backups...Some may forget that the backups go in there and just delete it anyway...So that is wrong advice...Like i said i am not a dev so doing that may work but surely there is a way round than just saying delete that folder when a dev should know that is the one of the most important folders if not the most important one on your sdcard...and regarding something that does not flash through the kitchen its simple..recovery and choose zip which will be in checkrom folder and flash it through there simples....

---------- Post added at 11:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 PM ----------

true but if that is the only way to install stuff from kitchen then so be it..i rather do that way than lose all my backup stuff...Honestly that advice from a recognized dev should not have been given specially with the level of n00biness around xda lately...again this is not a dig at anyone its just advice should be translated differently to avoid any issues
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maestropetr:
Ye that's true if that guide will be in FAQ then many people(n00biness) can loose back up's.

For n00biness pls just rename that folder :-)

The new KL1 modem is definitely worth flashing, wi-fi signal does appear to be stronger, i haven't tried with 3g yet but some people have reported it to be good, battery life not sure about yet but since i flashed it a few hours ago it appears to be pretty much the same but im gonna leave it on overnight to see.
