as you can see it has stopped. the next step is ICS, after jkay will release the mod. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Wezi:
I'm sure I read a few (100s) posts back that CRv6 would be the last GB rom they do. And besides, ICS hype is so big another GB rom wouldn't go down to well.

Having tried a few ICS roms now and heard about app compatibility problems with ICS in general, I'm happy to stick with CRv6
[Galaxy S II Android Development] skimminstones:
agree with that completely. I tried hydrogen rom for a couple of days. The scrolling just got too annoying. It wasnt as smooth or speedy as this rom.

ringtones in music player

Hi If I'm not posting in the right place then apologies but can anyone help me solve this problem? Just installed CR RevoHD on my SGS2 after factory reset and now I have a whole bunch of Samsung ringtones in my music player and none where I would expect to find them in phone settings.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] loveleeyoungae:
I couldnt get the ICS theme installed, and well I've tried the installation process for 6 times :(

This is just weird! I read some posts related to installing this ICS theme. So I carefully did everything with proper steps

a. Full wipe (with formatting /system).

b. Install the rom.

b. Update kitchen

c. Install Theme Restore package

d. Install ICS Theme

But for previous tries, the system booted up with the ICS theme, but no Dialer, Messaging, etc...

And the last time, I skipped the update kitchen step, and the phone is now bootlooping...

Is there anything else I can do? Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] andrei_me:
hmm, i flashed the theme a few days ago, all went well. what kernel are you using?

do a fresh instal. and don;t flash the restore theme, no need from a clean instal.. and then flash the ICS theme..

sorry, i haven;t had this problem..:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Your system partition sounds like its corrupt. Boot into recovery and format /system then reflash the rom. Its a non wipe so u won't lose it settings.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dude0014:
After reading a lot of good reviews about the new ICS Roms I tried both the latest Hydrogenics and Litening roms.

CheckRom V6 (with the phenomenal extreme kernel) is still without a doubt the BEST ROM imo in all regards.

ICS just has nothing better in it for phones. Love it on my Touchpad though.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] loveleeyoungae:
I tried that, and still got bootloop. I'm not using any other kernel, just keep everything default in v6: After installing the rom, just finishing the setup wizard, turning on wifi and go straight to Kitchen.

Thought there was something wrong with downloading files from kitchen, I even tried getting them from celogeek server via my PC.

I havent had big issues with installing roms or themes (just used to have some minor issue with installing ICS Dom but managed to fix them). But this time this is driving me mad, arrghh ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bcbickers:
Scrolling is the exact reason I am back on CR6. I tried CM9, Resurrection Remix, and Simplistic. Resurrection was the best ICS from IMHO, but I just couldn't adjust to the scrolling in ICS. Its like it "sticks" or something. Hard to explain unless you give it a go.

Looking forward to a CheckROM ICS release...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
I hope u won't be disappointed that Checkrom V7 will have the same scrolling ! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
All CM ICS Roms scroll like sh*t indeed. An LPS or LP7 Rom however is smooth as can be... At least as smooth as a good GB-Rom like this one :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
You can change touch sensitivity within the extweak app for ICS siyahkernel
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rauschkugl:
Scrolling in ics is the same than in gb with siyah or neak kernel. If there should be a little difference your used to it in a day.

battery drain on latest checkrom

Hi Everyone,

I dont know if i am the only one but the latest CheckRom is tending to drain a lot of battery.

If i shift to Siyah which is available Kitchen Pro will that have any effect.

Niket
[Galaxy S II Android Development] papakitou:
Try Phenomenal extreme

Unleashed from my Sexy Galaxy S2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Yes but you can't change the way it scrolls! ;)

Anyhow, I quite like the scrolling with siyah kernel.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] loveleeyoungae:
I successfully installed the theme, finally!

Dont know what was the main cause, though. I used Siyah kernel and hadnt opened "Deluxe Settings" once before opening kitchen.

I'll try repeating the steps to find out.

While waiting for CheckRom ICS v7

While waiting for CheckRom ICS v7 I have been fooling around with TurkbeyRom ICS v5. And I must say - it's quite good.

If You can manage a little Turkish for starters then it's very, very nice.

If CheckRom ICS ends up like this, I'm a very happy camper. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] carlos67:
Iv'e not seen anything yet on any of the threads to convince me to "upgrade" to ICS. It looks like the best ICS ROM at the moment is Litening ROM v2.6 but I don't rate Litepro's support at all.

Currently running CRRv6 with Phenomenal extreme and it's just sublime.

It's gonna take a lot to get me to switch from this. At the very least JKay support.

Too many people get sucked in by all the ICS hype. Nothing wrong with GB at all.

One things for sure though, I bet Leo and GC's ICS offering will be excellent once the initial bugs are sorted and JKay is in there along with the kitchen and a few themes.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] wellibob:
ICS roms are progressing at a fast rate of late. Not quite at GB standards but it's human nature to want an upgrade/new rom. The beauty of Android however is the same as always. CHOICE :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] adl:
I just came back from my first ICS ROM experience ("Goa Rom" based on LP4).

It´s considered to be a very good ROM, but hell what a weird touch response with ICS :eek:

Really really weird. I couldn´t get used to it, so i flashed back to Checkrom 6.

Feels just like coming home again :)

So, don´t hurry bringing out the ICS release, please wait until the touchscreen response feels like on gingerbread, LeoMar!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] norpan111:
I'm curious how you find touch response in newest lp7,im using it now and it's really nice. But I have been using ics for a while so maybe I just got used to it. Would be great to hear your thoughts
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cruzargel:
the stuck turning on wifi problem still isn't fixed for DXLP7. How can you live with it, for those who are on ICS already?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Kenzneth:
A suggestion for language supporting. Right now, as what the crr6 doing, it cant support all the chinese wordings. Some special words in Hong Kong are shrown as a box. Glad if you guys can use a droidsansfallback font that support all of them:)

Once again thx for the hard work
[Galaxy S II Android Development] darkneill:
Currently im with samsung official ics + speedmod kernel . Real smooth. Strongly recommend while we waiting checkrom ics.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] adl:
sorry, but i don´t have the time to test LP7 as we are moving during the next days to a new home and i am busy with that. Guess i wait until Checkrom ICS is released to give ICS another shot. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rauschkugl:
Well I'm on the newest foxhound rom (LP7) atm and used the versions before. Everything is working for me, scrolling is great, no wifi issues some are talking about. The only thing is battery. It's not as good as on gb until now but I'm able to get trough a day so no problem at all.

I also was on checkrom a long time and always went back after testing a lot ics builds but now you really are on the same level.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
There is no bug if you fresh install and then reboot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik. Reading the relevant thread would enlighten you so then mis-information is not spread. :mad:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rauschkugl:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] mustapharma:
After many ICS roms,now I am running the checkrom v6 again but I have proplem with kitchen pro when i download anything and after phone reboot it cant install it

please help a install the rom three times and the same thing every time

what can i do

thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Mr.Greg:
Uninstall, then reinstall kitchen app.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mustapharma:
I do that also delete the checkrom folder and now everything is well thanks again
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ufo900:
I'd like to understand onw thing:

now i'm on VK ROM on LP4 so ICS..

If I put CHECKROM v6 with ICS domination theme, what differences do I have?

Meaning esthetically and performance differences.

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] adz63:
You will have better performance and battery on cr6. Ics bad scrolling awful battery and pretty much shouldn't be released in any shape or form til it's stable. Just my opinion
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ufo900:
So you think this Rom is better than ICS esthetically speaking with a theme?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Stop posting wrong information !!! :banghead:

Scrolling is great on siyah kernel and I've gotten over 5 hours screen time with nearly 2 days up time in total, nearly all of which was browsing.

Battery life is all about set up. Ics is definitely stable enough and food enough to flash in my opinion.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mustapharma:
another proplem

when i flash Revolution theme my phone lag on the starup screen that is

samsung galaxy s2 gt-i9100

and the phone begin to heat up

what can i do thank for help
[Galaxy S II Android Development] diegonando22:
I agree, on the other hand I missed JKAY, but the upgrade worth indeed
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Tyrol:
Not sure if this is a ROM or kernel related problem, or perhaps even a hardware problem but I woke up from a long sleep after not sleeping the previous night, and was using my phone when I realised there was a red light on next to the front camera. After some Googling around, it seems like it's the proximity sensor that should only go on when the phone is in a call. However, I've only made one call this week! And it wasn't when I noticed the light.

I tried rebooting the phone 'cause some people reported that it went off after rebooting but for me, it came back on again after the reboot. I'm not sure what may have caused this since I haven't flashed anything for the past month, and didn't install any new apps today.

Can anyone enlighten me on this mysterious, always-on red light? Thank you.

Edit: found the issue, had to do with the app NotifierPro Plus' older version. Has since been fixed in the new version.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] roni2915:
Hey Bud, what ICS rom did you flash? I tried official LP7 with the same configurations that I use on CheckROM and my battery life wasn't good.

Could you just tell me the ROM you flashed and the kernel, id assume your on Siyah kernel. Thanks bro! :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mustapharma:
I tried more than five ICS roms no one is perfect each rom have many issue

so can you tell us about a 90% perfect ICS rom :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Yes...I'm using Litening rom LP7 at the moment and I can say its 90% perfect. With the latest Siyah kernel its 95% perfect.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] darkneill:
Im on official samsung + speedmod , it is very good . Refer to my attach pic , really love samsung ics security fuction. Hope checkrom will remain all the security option :) . Official ICS is my daily rom now. Everything on stock + speedmod is awesome.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] XDA mark:
I dont miss JKay. On Hydrogen ICS you get JKay x 100. Basicly the ROM is based on AOKP, which is again based on CM9. Basicly you get a tab in your settings thats called "ROM Control", there you will find all the AOKP tweaks.

These include changing: LCD Density (DPI), CRT off, Hold back to kill app, Custom carrier label, Horizontal task switcher (webOS) style, Allow 180 degrees rotation, enable Navigation bar (software buttons), Navigation bar color, navigation bar buttons (you can add all kinds of stuff to your navigation bar), The height of the navigation bar....

It's going to be a long list. I have now only mentioned the "General UI" and "Navigation bar" tabs. You have also Lockscreen options, Power Menu options, Weather, Power Saver, LED options, Statusbar general/ toggles/ clock/ battery/ signal... and then Performance and Start-up tweaks which allow you to set CPU frecuency's, govener, also Voltage Control... and a lot of start up tweaks you can enable.

The idea is... it's a HUGE amount of things you can enable and tweak. From how the battery looks to how your notification tray looks like.

So yeah, no offence to JKay which makes Samsung ROMs a lot better... but Hydrogen ICS/AOKP crew gives you so much you will not miss JKay that much on ICS :p

And again, be gone with the trolls saying ICS is an epic failure. There are enough excellent roms avaidable...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
I agree. Aosp & aokp roms have Jay customization and more. However, some guys prefer Sammy roms.

Me, I'm on the fence as I like both. But Sammy roms def have better battery life... Probably because of less serious wakelocks and sudden high drains that can be sometimes seen on aosp roms.

But even in custom ics Sammy roms , jkays mod isn't as necessary as it was on GB. moist have the 15 toggle status bar now too and ics lock screen as well as battery %.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] bajee11:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] zaphyr:
CheckROM runs a little better perhaps. ICS looks much better, and have some better features. ICS Dom is only a theme, so it can't be compared directly. I see lots of people complain abut scrolling in ICS, but in my opinion it's not worse than GB, just different. My best advice is to try them both for a week, then make an educated decision based on your own experience.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Paradoxxx:
I couldn't say anything better. Just, everyone uses what they do like, some people are anti AOSP and all derivative, some anti samsung (Me :p), that's just how the world is made naow :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] landerson07:
I'm on d4 rom and haven't had a single problem! Full wipe install with latest siyah kernel! As others have said scrolling is just as good as GB only different! it's extremely customizable once you get used to it! ROM is super smooth and stable
[Galaxy S II Android Development] exxi:
I think it's about time that I add my own opinion here:

I tried all the ICS ROMs availible and with all of them, some more some less, I have a feeling that they are running more sluggish and slower than GB releases. There is no subjectivity here believe me. I really compared the two (ICS,GB) and GB is just MORE RESPONSIVE than any ICS ROM availible on XDA Dev. today - PERIOD.

To clarify a little bit more on what I mean with sluggishness:

- I hit the app icon in my ICS launcher and there is no reaction, sometimes I have to touch it a few times until it actually launches the App. And Yes I've tried tweaking it with the available settings (touch screen sensitivity etc.) it didn't help. This was the case on all ICS Roms I have tried.

- The Scrolling is not just different it is slower. There is substantial lagg (movement of the finger opposed to the reaction of the screen) especially in apps like GMAIL and the launcher) it is simply not as fast as in GB and YES, I find it very annoying. You can't tell me that it's just a different kind of scrolling.

- Overall: Browsing, apps and commands are executed slower than on GB ROM's

Believe me, i've done the installation perfectly. Even wiped emmc and there was no difference in performance. I also tried numerous kernels (NEAK, SiyahKernel etc.) no substantial difference in performance.

Folks, that being said there are many positive aspects of ICS:

- More intuitive

- Well implemented "off the shelf" customizability

- Polished UI and state of the art media implementation

I'd love to run ICS on my phone, I am still running it right now but by the looks of it I think i will have to switch back to GB.

I am slowly loosing hope that there will be a release of ICS that I am actually blown away by. I care a lot about performance, more than I care about functionality per-se.

I even tried overclocking ICS and it still yielded no satisfactory results for me.

There are 2 options here:

Either my phone's hardware is not okay and thus the slowdowns are due to my faulty hardware (which i highly doubt)

or

ICS releases are still not good enough to compete with GB releases in terms of objective/subjective performance.

Cheers

hey guys, quick question: i have just tested an ICS firmware relesed by my carrier, but just as i expected, i dind't like it, so quickly restored nandroid backup to CR6

all ok, except one small thing that's bugging me, my baseband version didn't changed after restoring, so i still have the ics one BULP6

any issues with this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] baza14:
Its normal, download other modem over kitchen.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] DannySchaukens:
I still have a prob with v6 the sound is gone from time to time.

Please help.

Thx!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Yes...use the stock dialer and not a modded one from the kitchen. Read the thread a little please.

No problem...non wipe roms generally don't wipe the modem... try it out for a while ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] skimminstones:
Im sorry, the last time i checked this was the checkrom thread. Checkrom is on GB at the moment. Can we please cut out all the ICS rom reviews. They all have their own threads for that. Its like me going into an Audi dealership and only talking about why BMW is better.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zzz777:
personnaly Jkay it's not a must have for me

can you please publish v7 ? :rolleyes:

BTW v6 works well :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
The posts above yours are about v6 and about returning from to ics to CRR v6 buddy.

Development is finished on v6. So don't expect anymore support or chat on here about v6...if ur coming on here still looking to find stuff about v6 then u are going to be disappointed.

The guys talking about ics on here are all checkrom users awaiting a checkrom ics rom ..the sooner people get used to that the better. No dev wants to support or talk about GB anymore.....Fact !

Now go walk ur dog and get a bit of fresh air instead of moaning and trolling here.

jeah i know that :)

it would still be a good addition right? right now, one can not see which features are standard. if you look at the list of modem options, the KI4 modem is not highlighted or anything, but it would be a waste of time (and server load!) to select it and install it :p

an option that states what is currently installed would be nice.

Kernel problems?

If you want BLN supported kernel I found that the best kernel from Kitchen is

RAGEmod U1-v1.1b...works great with my sgs2.

BLN-app can be found here >>> https://market.android.com/search?q=bln&so=1&c=apps

BLN turns on some android phones the touchkey backlight into a notification led.

This app *REQUIRES* a kernel with BLN mod.

== What is the BLN mod? ==

The BLN mod turns the touchkey backlights into a notification led.

It enables any android application to use the touchkey backlights of your phone as a notification led.
