Many thanks GadgetCheck.

Excellant ROM and features, I love the KitchenPro app allowing changes without downloading to a PC then SGS2.

Keep up the great work!

Personally, as an architectural student, I use it to record phone interviews. I take notes during the calls as well, but it's much easier when you have the actual conversation to fall back on if you're unsure of anything, and to make sure you've got everything. I always ask for permission and the tutors are quite happy with it.

I've only used it three or four times but it had been very handy each time.

It's better to do a full wipe because the two roms have a different android version
[Galaxy S II Android Development] drkaosdk:
Yeah.. Good way to use it :-)

Full wipe means wipe factory data and cache partition and dalvik cache right ?

Yes. Dalwik, cache + date = Full wipe!

Please notice the choice they made: in landscape, the last row is just not visible, rather than scaling all the rows. I LIKE IT: no more aspect ratio issues on widget !
[Galaxy S II Android Development] reggaemanu:
It's like changing resolution on your pc screen. If you lower the number of dpi you have more space to display things on your phone. Default is 240dpi, 200 is better imho, some people even use 180dpi.

We have a big screen on our device but actually can't display more than device that have a smaller screen, that's too bad, lowering dpi is workaround for that :)

The only problem is that few apps doesn't support it so they doesn't scale right and doesn't fit the entire screen.

Let's give credit where credit is due. Robbiekhan shows off his customized homescreen using these icons and the ICS theme from Vertumus and people are calling it "robbiekhan" theme. Use these dock icons will get your phone to look similar to Robbie's.

couldnt find it but within the last 20 pages he did say what widgets he used , i gove up looking . think it was something like smooth calendar and snowy widgets

But i must say, DK 2.4.3 runs great / better on my setup.

Maybe you have a app running at the background that's giving some problems?

I can now confirm that DK2.4.3 gives me echoes & stutters during phone calls, CF Kernel no problem. I switched from DK to CF 3 times today and DK gave me problems on local and long distance calls and CF no problems to the same people. Apart from that DK seems to give slightly better battery.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] en0203:
I have been using v4 for about a week now and it was good initially until 2 days ago the battery suddenly went bad for no reason. I didn't change anything, didn't install anything but the battery just drain like crazy. CPU monitor shows that com.android.providers.security is the only thing eating the cpu while the rest are idle. Anyone has similar problem?

Also, it seems that whatsapp is also one of the culprit clocking high usage in betterbatt stats, with partial wakelock of fullsync but it wasn't a problem before. Anyone can confirm this?

Clear dalvik but to no avail. Seems like must do a wipe :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
If there is no "stock" caller in the kitchen which you can change back to, you'll have to reflash the whole Rom.

Wait. The call recording feature can be activated only once you are connected to the call. Means to say the other person must pick the call.

If you want CheckROM stock dialer you can find it in XWKK5_CheckromRevoHD_V4.zip in that go to system\app there you will see phone.apk

problems with new rom v4

Hi,

After installing the new ROM (coming from the last one) i have allot of problems with my phone - it says "i haven't got enough space" and stuff like that, application on my phone simply disappear and some other none normal things.

before installing the new ROM, I formatted the phones SD (loading the phone as mass storage and formatting from windows explorer).

i guess that this was my error.

I also did a full wipe from CWM.

So what should i do now ? i have a TB of my system so i am not afraid to flush over the phone.

thanks.

Sudden Battery Drain from 70 % to 19%

Hello,

Off late I am seeing a sudden drop in battery which is just surprising to me.

I am on your awesome rom V 4.0 with DK 2.4.3 kernel using intellidemand governor (100- 1400 Mhz) .. The only change I did in these two days was to use NO Frill CPU and selected intellidemand.. Which I have reverted now..

Any other suggestion on possible issue?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] InnAl:
You're right, i haven't noticed yet because i'm not using exchange and forgot about that app. It's not there. Have you checked if you could grab it from the all samsung package in the kitchen?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ExilHh:
And you think its ROM related? I´m sure there is something wrong with your setup!

Or did you f. e. restore TB apps and data?

Try to start again just from the beginning (wipe and clean install) and everything will be fine, there is nothing wrong with this ROM...everything is smooth as butter in the summersun!

Difference between CheckROM Rev 2 and CheckROM Rev 4

There is this problem that I just cannot understand and need help on.

I have been trying different roms on my Galaxy S2 for the last month and I have never been able to get my GPS working. Including CheckROM Rev4. I then gave a shot to the older version Rev2 and it suddenly fixed my GPS. It connects in less than 4 secs now - as it should be on the S2. I've tried all the usual GPS fixing stuff on the other roms like fasterfix, AGPS download, manually editing the gps.conf file etc.

I heard somewhere that GPS connectivity is kernel,radio and ROM independent?

What could be the difference between the 2 ROMs in terms of GPS connectivity?

Now comes the frustrating part - I would've happily used the CRROM Rev2 just for the GPS, but my battery drains like crazy on this ROM. Something like 20% in 2 hours with normal usage. Battery performance however is brilliant on Rev4. I've used DK 2.4.3 kernel on both roms. Both have the same modem XXKI4.

I'm in the UK with

Baseband - I9100XXKI4

Thanks!

Your sig says you have got v1.5 ICS theme on your phone, is this corret?

You've got 2 choices,

1. Go to the kitchen and download a battery mod from there, it is most likely not ICS themed

2. Go to Vert's ICS thread where you downloaded your v1.5 theme, go down to post #2, and download then flash his ICS circle battery mod..

Good luck, mate ;)

Decided to upgrade to CheckROM 4.0 yesterday + Siyah Kernel 2.4, did not do a wipe... To my surprise it performed even better than 3.1.1! Its snappier than 3.1.1 for sure...

- No problem with wifi

- No lag at all... very instant...*LIKE*

- Very stable...

Siyah Kernel 2.4 is awesome too...

Up so far for 19h 45min

CPU Deep Sleep 26%

25MHz 35%

200MHz 11%

500MHz 17%

800MHz 3%

1000MHz 1%

1200MHz 2%

All this gets me great battery life, great performance... What more can I ask for?! Oh well... I do have one request... Make this ROM available to other S2 variant devices like Note, S2 LTE (AT&T version)

Keep up the good work... Love the stability & performance & battery life!
