Really? Homo's?

Is there a moderator here? This thread is getting ridiculous.

That's aside from the fact that just because 1, 10 or more people don't have issues, doesn't mean there may not be a problem with something...I am not a developer, but I know that there are way to many variables to limit any form of testing to just a few in real world use...

You could save google, apple and every phone manufacturer a stack of cash...just volunteer to be their only tester, I am sure if it works for you they can release it to the public...

I am not having any problems with the rom btw, though I still think there may be something to the battery life, maybe not...battery can always be improved though. As can everything I suppose-or what are we all doing here?

I can't see the developers being so arrogant as to think this rom is absolutely perfect...android itself has it's flaws etc etc.

Nor could I see them treating people with such disrespect...

With the repetitive 'noob' questions, could answers be just placed on the first page, then all people have to suggest is-'please look at first page...'

If someone posts an issue , eg: battery_ similarly, have a disclaimer, as with other threads saying 'don't post until you have tried a full wipe, checked with better battery stats etc... it doesn't have to descend into arguments. If there are enough posts reporting an issue, then the developer may want to look at it, if they want... Just because someone posts an issue isn't an attack on the rom, most people it seems are just essentially saying what they are experiencing, just basically a + 1, there may be something here, not necessarily an attack or a whine.

Surely Leo and crew aren't going to want to wade through this... I'd be fuming if it was my thread.

Or, have a dedicated bug thread or site.

Anyway, as someone who doesn't have time to flash and fiddle around much anymore, I am really grateful for this rom. Battery life, and some way to improve 3g call reception other than modems (a non rom related separate issue, I have tried every modem and get people unable to hear me in my kitchen) would be the only real need for me to change if it stays this stable (I have seen many roms on other phones fall over after the 2-3 week mark, this usually goes unnoticed due to everyone upgrading regularly).

Thanks guys.

Leo and GadgetCheck work together to make new rom and kernel. And they are working hard.

By the way, they often adapt theme and purpose patch in his Kitchen Apps.

I don't get this thing, explain please.

GC as one of the devolopers of this ROM can you please do something with this thread it is getting worse and worse every day, either delete it and start a new one or something because it's painful having to read all of this, unfortunately the thread has turned into a farce:confused:

hi, just flashed ur rom, love the kitchen pro stuff, just wondering is there a CRT animation mod? or do i have to flash a theme?

thanks a lot! :)

oh, and i flashed miui clock+music, i saw the music app, but couldn't find the clock widget.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dark Emotion:
Go to JKay (Deluxe settings app) ...you can turn on/off CRT anim
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ExilHh:
Use JKays Deluxe Settings to enable CRT. Works with all themes from the kitchen.

Edit: grmpf...1/10 second too late! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alexdk:
LOL I was too slow, has already been answered :-)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] klyzon:

now just the miui clock left :)

Oh wow, KJ3 is out

[Galaxy S II Android Development] tbong777:
Funny stuff

1. People who complain about battery life then in the next sentence ask how to include boot animations.

2. People who don't understand what I/O scheduling or Governors do and complain about battery life

3. People who wipe Dalvik and cache before flashing a kernel... As HAcre so eloquently put it

4. Are first in line to flash a new ROM before the Kitchen gets updated for that ROM...Then complain about issues when using the Kitchen.

"Advising to wipe cache/dalvik before changing kernel is akin to advising checking tyre pressures because the gearbox just fell out"

KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING... KNOW WHAT YOU ARE FLASHING Understand what a theme replaces and why you need to REVERT.

Understand when you apply something from the kitchen how it will AFFECT WHAT IS ALREADY on the device.

Know the differences between CW4 and CW 5.

Know where you Bootanimation and power on files are in System.

SPEEDMOD DOES NOT SUPPORT BOOTANIMATION.ZIP

Do a little reading before flashing ANYTHING.....Even new battery indicator.

Use the full power of you device and don;t get so hung up in getting weeks out of a single charge. Samsung has kindly allowed us to swap batteries.

That vast majority of us are not having issues with this or any other ROM. We can usually solve our own problems using search or common sense. We don;t miss LEO because this ROM is running great without his presence at the moment. We don't over use the kitchen. We are not serial flashers.

We ENJOY USING our devices more than playing with the settings, seeking another 400 points of a meaningless quadrant score or another 120 min of battery life.

CheckROM is now by far the greatest ROM SGS2 can enjoy.

Working great with Siyyah-2.2beta3.. absolutely no issue of any sort at all. Battery life is great and as desired easily lasts 30 hours with 40 mins voice calls, 4 hours of screen, and continuous data ON state. Antutu scored 7560. Less heating up issue on camera area.. no force closes.. running ICS v2 and well there as well no issue. lag free menu and moving between emails, messaging and browser on CheckROM v2.2.0 is butter smooth.. have installed many mods from kictchen and all worked flawless with the latest CWM 5.0.2.7 recovery (were installed on auto reboot from kitchen)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Let me bump this up, all this useless talking and asking the same question already answered in first post is making the thread go outside its tracks...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] uppon2:
I don't get FC on this ROM. I never said I did. Ever! - I said that the kernel by default should have not been there and ICS should have been removed until further notice at time of issue. Nothing more and nothing less.

I changed the kernel to flash some stuff from the kitchen and applied the theme using a different method then flashed hellcat back because I like it. I had no other issues myself nor did I have any FC. I am using Rev 2.7.1 because I is a better ROM and that is the only reason

Some other users were complaining about things going wrong and it was due to the issues I have listed above. People started hating on these users because Leo is usually always around to fix things like this right away but people were getting flustered and started repeating themselves because they trust in Revolution and have not needed to worry about it for the last few months.

I agree that people shouldn't expect anything. But when they start getting hated on because Leo was always helping night and day and would have resolved said incident right away. I think that's unfair

You can't get mad at them because they are scared of flashing other things in the kitchen in case they get bootloop or stuck on splash so the only thing for these users to do is say something in the thread. Is it annoying YES! should they read more YES! but this is what Revolution ROM was like before the merger. Leo didn't sleep he just seemed to be there for everybody and things operated differently.

I couldn't care less about the support for my own personal use other than the kitchen

I am not trying to put anybody down. I am not trying to offend anybody. I am simply sticking up for users that are not dealing with this change well and don't really have the right words to speak up

---------- Post added at 02:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:48 AM ----------

Agreed.

I admit people are looking a little silly acting desperate like this about Leo but I don't think you understand the level of support he gave these users. They are seriously not used to fending for themselves. Is this silly? YES IT IS! But this is why Revolution became one of the most if not the most popular ROM for SGS 2. Well it had 50% to do with the kitchen and 50% support.

This is my last post on this issue. I am sorry if I have offended anybody in my posts. No offence was meant to be taken!

CheckRom v2.2.0 ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
I see your point, it's the same with Gadget Check he is always there when people have problems but even if he wasn't online for a few days i wouldn't be on here posting "ohhhhh where is GC" these people constantly asking where Leo is (it's already been stated numerous times he is on holiday) are tragic in my book and need to get themselves a life,the world isn't going to end because Leo isn't online to deal with issues most of which are user issues and can be resolved by searching the forum but it appears some people are incapable of that.

If this "merger" is to continue then i truly hope to f**k these moaning *****es give it up immediately as people are sick of it, otherwise i might find myself going elsewhere and im very happy with this ROM and have supported it since it's inception but people can only take so much of this crap every day.

:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
look forward to it, take as much time as you want and don't listen to people screaming for updates :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zoobihoobi:
Suggestion

@GC

Could you kindly add Google Talk with Video and RTL patch built in your next Rom rather as separate package, as I assume most of the people prefer to use it as default.

It's just a suggestion :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sebsasko:
Are you sure you cannot enter recovery ?

To enter recovery :

From Off state, hold Vol Up + Home button + Power until you see boot logo with yellow triangle, release the 3 buttons for less than 1 second and then press again the 3 buttons until you enter recovery.

Hope this will help you !
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dark Emotion:
CheckROM Revolution HD V2.0 + SpeedMOD S2-K16 = LETHAL COMBO... it is very smooth and best battery life you can get on SGS2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kerko:
Thanks for your answer but no...

I remove battery then i insert it hold the buttons until the logo appears, then i release it darkens for a second, i am praying to enter the recovery but the yellow triangle appears again and stays there foreveer
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lownita:
I am back there too. Today I wanted to test some roms and guess what? Back to check!

Stop complaining guys, it is a great rom and I am sure kj3 release will be too!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] midreestaj:
Yes the current latest. i.e. V2.0.0
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sebsasko:
After you released, you need to immediatly press again the 3 buttons and hold them until you reach recovery...

Are you doing that ?

The other solution is to flash a stock rom with odin in download mode...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kwerdenker:
Try to hold the buttons longer. I always hold down the buttons till the recovery appears, which can sometimes take a bit. The worst thing that can happen if you press the combination longer is that it does not work ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] beston94:
Is it really? Because usually if there is great battery life then the smoothness of the rom will be lost due to the savings of the battery life...

thanks in advance..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kerko:
I am doing that... but nothing...

How can i enter the download mode...??

---------- Post added at 05:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 PM ----------

My shaking fingers ached trying to hold longer...still that yellow triangle mocking at me...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amazindm:
-Installed big bang hd's ICS 3.0. Running perfectly without problems so far.

-Been on Rev since 2.6 and currently on CRR v1 + speedmod k2-13. Fast, good battery, nice with ICS and mostly stable.

- Appreciate the great work of the team and hope that this thread is getting more focused on important stuff in the future. BEST rom for me so far!

but I do have one request: please keep the kitchen-model alive as is and don't start with base roms that are full of packages to begin with. That would defeat the idea of the revolution users: which is a good base rom with individually flashable add ons!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lownita:
Well in my opinion you can achieve a better battery life with super fancy governors like smartass v2 or lulzactive. But they all suffer from lag here and there. Speedmod uses oldschool ondemand and everything runs as smooth as it could. Battery is good though on speedmod.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Shinfei:
could'nt agree more :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sebsasko:
You can enter download mode by holding Vol Down + Home + Power (From off state)

EDIT : Have a look at this thread if you don't know how to flash with Odin : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kwerdenker:
Sorry to hear that. Download mode is volum down instead of up as for recovery.

[edit: @sebsasko seems like I'm your echo ;) ]
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kerko:
OK!!!

Now what??? Where can i find the stock rom????

WOW that is a sign of life...

[Galaxy S II Android Development] mbutandola:
Before flashing another rom try flashing another kernel via odin (CF-root or speedmod. Might get your device back to its feet. I've been there and learned the hard way :).

Using odin is quite easy when you've done it once.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Noed:
There's an OROKJ4 and ORAKJ4 out too, I think Romania?

Then XWKJ4 / XXKJ4 might be closer...

Well, you need to wait JKay V13, no rush then

But I would be happy anyway with "just" a KJ2 :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
I do not want to hear any more nonsense talk about bad battery drain due to this ROM because it simply doesn't happen, if you are experiencing bad battery drain check BetterBatteryStats and investigate.

This is with everyday use and if this doesn't satisfy people then there is no point in having a smartphone, this is possibly the best your gonna get with a smartphone while actually using it.

CheckRom Revolution 2.0.0 + Siyah Kernel 2.1.1

i don't use SetCPU any more but it is still a useful tool but i can achieve the same battery life without it.

Screenshots below.

That is all ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
No not here although im using Siyah 2.1.1 and ill probably stick with that kernel i cant be dealing with these daily updates on that thread.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] andrei_me:
these look like my screenshots :)) excet i got 4h of screen on, 50 min of calls, currently i got 4% left in the battery but it;s running for 1 day 13 hours an 24 min. i don;t want to to a screen shot because it messes the crt off efect :)) same configuration as you but. i also used the wifi.

so yeah this ROM is GREAT.

edit. i use Setcpu just to set the governor. lulzactive. tomorow smartassv2. testing :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
great to hear :) im using mobile broadband at present so cant log onto Wi-Fi with my phone but yeah id say with Wi-Fi you could even get more battery.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SupraN0va:
Jesus , man are you serious??? This is what you calk a good battery life??OMG.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
I'm perfectly happy with my battery life, im not some freak who is obsessed with doing absolutely anything and everything to get the most battery life out of my phone for 95% of users my battery life would be more than sufficient for everyday use, but seen as your getting even better battery life im sure you wont mind sharing your set up;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lownita:
Guys I have a problem: I flashed Checkrom 2.0 once again (from xxki3 stock with cfroot) and all that happens when I reboot after flash is that I get stuck on the bootscreen (the one with the triangle). This is not the first time I flash this rom after a full wipe, but it suddenly happened :confused: All I did was format /sdcard this time.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] andrei_me:
oh.. i get it.

i understand that people want a great battery life, but if you play games, use it a lot for browsing,chat,calls,sms, the battery will die.

and as you said if don;t use it a lor and still get a bad battery life, try to find the culprit and fix it. use the available apps. and if that is isn't good enough for you. get a nokia x1.( i got for my other number, and get 2-3 weeks of stand-by, now that's a great battery life :)) )

ofc leo is on vacation or where ever he is. he and gadget built a great ROM. and assumed that people will know how to use it :))...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bons:
Yep, same here. Using Siyah 2.1.1 and ICS theme V3.

Not a big deal though ;-)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SupraN0va:
no prob , i can share my wisdom^^. No seriously, i've tried pretty much of this kernel and rom stuff and i think that i am not one of those guys who speak nonsense in your eyes....

The thread got some BOOTLOOP issues... GC, wipe it and let's start over... 60% of those ppl moaning have been flaahing roms since android broke through on the market and they all got some serious issues when they flash the rom... I am a complete noob who used plenty of hours to read and not ask questions about how to flash a rom and how to fix several issues such as bootloops FC's etc etc... I MIGHT have asked for some guidelines or threads with turtorials, but thank god i have NEVER occured on any issues that bad in these last 35 days since I for the first time rooted my device... My point is, use GOOGLE all you lazy haters, xda got an excellent search option, don't be affraid to read and learn something useful on your own abd stop moaning about the rom... I have tried every rom from xda and samifirmware since i rooted my phone, and I as a complete NOOB have NEVER had a simoke issue with CR roms, and those i had was small bugs which i solved with help of really helpfulf users of xda and this thread... Now my phone is flying and i will never ever go back to stock rom as long as GC and the team are developing roms for this nice piece of machinery...

GC... Absolutely nice and well developed rom, all credits to you and the team.

SupraN0va you made me curious. Now I need to know how you get that much screen on time with over 30% battery left. :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maxeli:
This is what i usually do... I fladh my stock rom/kernel wiyh odin, than i use odin again to flash litening v6.1 rom, boot into recovery, wipe cache, dalvik, "mount and storage/format system" and at the end i hit factory reset, and than i flash this rom... Or any other rom... That's How i solve the problem... Usually it works :-D
