[Galaxy S II General] Batskoning:
Yes, i guess :D

But when u update this, u can't install checkrom or a other rom..?

I don't see the difference for installing this and then install a custom rom..

Correct me if im wrong..:confused::D
[Galaxy S II General] L10nH34Rt:

Dang! Tempting, but I gotta wait for JKay.
[Galaxy S II General] Batskoning:
JKay already here :eek: :p
[Galaxy S II General] stuclark:
I lost EFS with this update, so be careful...

Oh, and its the new boot loader that doesn't reset by jig
[Galaxy S II General] armanderli:
Gonna ask again, is it 2.3.6 or not?
[Galaxy S II General] akbarhash:
Exactly the reasons why I am waiting for Intratech. If you want to use jig just download the old boot loader from Intratech thread and flash that.

official or non OFFicial. who cares as long as we get better software.

It is Freee so STop Moaning

there is not much improvement as base is KJ2 and Modem is KI4

so dont get excited
[Galaxy S II General] Genrauser:
Are you sure about this? Any1 could confirm? :(

does speedmod work for root??
[Galaxy S II General] bouaroudj:
speedmod works
[Galaxy S II General] wanam:
Odia did it for kk1 (based on 2.3.6), i tested it and it was working!!
[Galaxy S II General] :
What do Odia's insecure kernels have to do with zergRush? :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] myshu:
yes i'm sure. i flashed speedmod via odin , booted once then used Mobile Odin to flash back the stock kernel. it kept the root this way.
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
So how is it compared to KJ3? I thought KJ3 felt a lot faster than previous firmwares(didn't try KJ1/2, I'm comparing it with KI8 and KH3), does it feel any faster than 2.3.5?
[Galaxy S II General] domigr:
when i flash the rom at the begin when it tries to load the csc files it said can' access to /system/csc/XEN/system/ and then it says successfully applied multi csc..this i saw it after i flash and when i enter to recovery..is it normal??
[Galaxy S II General] myshu:
i can only compare it with KJ2 XEF.

there's no more problems with the lockscreen. you don't get any more glimpse of the desktop as you light up the screen but haven't yet unlocked it.

transitions are way smoother and camera and all sorts of apps open faster.
[Galaxy S II General] donalgodon:
Yes, that is totally normal.
[Galaxy S II General] bouaroudj:
Can you give us the new kernel?
[Galaxy S II General] domigr:
and why this doesn't happen to my others firmwares??
[Galaxy S II General] marcelotorres:
Great!! waiting for you release. thanks
[Galaxy S II General] donalgodon:
Not sure, but I've seen it often in my own and in flashing other S2s, and always without indecent. I don't typically change CSC, though I have done so before. I think the multi-CSC is there, so it uses what it finds.
[Galaxy S II General] mimahitna:
Do you know, which one is more clear (w/out add apps) ROM: KPN or XEN ?

[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
KPN would be carrier branded.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Not worth the trouble. Performance is worser then KJ3 for me. Reverting back to my backup.
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Oops! But still you can try that later from scratch though....

simply re-copy your .tar.md5 firmware somewhere , rename it to just .tar extension and open with winrar. then take out the zImage :) . Use that with Mobile Odin Lite and flash the kernel :)

sunspider score better than iphone4s.

browsermark improved 78452.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
I know someone will ask so here:
[Galaxy S II General] myshu:
it's all improvements for me from KJ2 aswell.

ones having problems probably had a "custom" firmware before and haven't done any factory reset.

also the phones region could also be a problem as hardware components differ a bit even though they have the same tech specs.

---------- Post added at 06:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 PM ----------

@Intratech

your baseband is KI3 , and not the stock one for this firmware (KI4)

baseband is usually drivers isn't it ?

i have a feeling thats why you're experiencing performance issues compared to KJ3 :)
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Baseband is the modem, as I said I have modified the firmware to suite my need a little bit. No performance tweaks as yet.
[Galaxy S II General] :
I can upload it if you are still interested. Following changes. Let me know.

Cfroot KJ3 kernel

[Galaxy S II General] brittonberkan:
As somewhat of a beginner and after reading a lot of help posts I'm still not sure if I can safely flash this, so I hope I'm not offending anyone with this question:

Can I safely flash this ROM via Odin without rooting the device, or will I risk losing the /efs folder (which can only be backed up with root access, right?)
[Galaxy S II General] MKD73:
Ill upload . ..........
[Galaxy S II General] krazykat:
Flashing with odin does not need root. Though you will eventually need to root for things like titanium backup. Do note you will end up wiping your device if you do flash unless you use intratech's fw (nom-wipe).

[Galaxy S II General] akbarhash:
Yeah so someone stated that they had better browser performance with 2.3.6.

Here is proof I had tested my phone with browsermark when the iphone 4s had come out.

Then I was on 2.3.5.

So anyways the iphone 4S was able to beat the galaxy s2 at that time as you can see in the anandtech prelimnary tests.

Now with the 2.3.6 update we got iphone matched and i have seen 2.3.7 get higher.
[Galaxy S II General] ewok666:
I used to get 97000 in Browsermark as well. This was right after I flashed it but now it's down to 85000. Not that this matters but is there a reason for this?

EDIT: Never mind, I think the governor changed after I flashed another Kernel. Fixed the CPU to run at 1200MHz and got 105000

TIA
[Galaxy S II General] lgkahn:
can someone test voice search and voice dial as someone posted in the att gsii forum that it was broken in 2.3.6 and that is why 2.3.7 was released.

[Galaxy S II General] knightnz:
So given that CM7 is 2.3.7 based - what score does a current build of CM7 get in browsermark?

Given that the only "official" difference between 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 is to fix a couple of bugs, that's a _massive_ improvement in rendering speed.

Restore using Titanium Backup.

If you are planning to update to miui then why bother with all this. Just get the miui. It will make no difference which rom you are coking from to miui performance.

I know it's a silly question but can anyone answer it?

If it says the ROM will WIPE your phone what memory does it wipe?

System storage, USB storage or SD card?
[Galaxy S II General] KayvinM:
Hey guys I know I might be a little late to the party but I uploaded a couple of mods in case anybody needs them. I noticed that the default font is bolder and not as visually appealing to some so the the package I attached will install the default un-bolded font from previous firmware versions. The battery mod is stock style with percentage. Both files are CWM compatible.

Note: If you after flashing the font package you encounter an issue with the clock font being misaligned just reboot the phone again and it will fix itself.
[Galaxy S II General] abhinavjha:
It wipes the system storage (not your internal SD)

Simply put, it wipes all your apps, contacts, settincs, synced accounts and stuff....

but not your files...
[Galaxy S II General] Fishlips:
Has anyone experienced random reboots with this firmware?

I flashed it via the official way (via Kies), but since I flashed I keep getting random reboots. It seems to happen only when I'm not doing anything (e.g. in my pocket, lying on the table, etc), never when I had it in my hand doing something.
[Galaxy S II General] arandax:
Yes my phone did about 3 reboots in 4 days...

I've just rooted and cleared cache/davik cache. I hope this is the solution.

Nyssa1104 , do you use WiFi often? Somehow I think it's related to WiFi. Probably it happens when switching between access points or something.
[Galaxy S II General] tylerdurden83:
Does this rom have the same issue with wpa_supplicant being updated / broken compared to older versions, like kk5 has?
[Galaxy S II General] Nyssa1104:
Wifi (N band) most of the time unless im on the road...
[Galaxy S II General] Fishlips:
Me too, weird.

I still don't know what caused the random reboots in my case, but clearing the Dalvik cache worked wonders.
[Galaxy S II General] Doodle:
Same with my phone. After the official update over Kies I experienced random resets, multiple instances per day. Since I do not want to root and clear the Dalvic, I will first try with a factory reset and a cache clear.

I'll update on the results.
[Galaxy S II General] janderk:
I got multiple reboots too on the stock KK2 firmware. Had the problem also on the 2.3.5 firmware. 2.3.3 was stable as a rock. I would not upgrade to this firmware if you're still running 2.3.3 firmware. Even a factory reset did not solve the problem.
[Galaxy S II General] barryyam:
is it worth to update?
[Galaxy S II General] Doodle:
In my case a factory reset did work. I found instability in the Touchwiz home screen (buttons would disappear). This stopped after a factory reset, which also solved the random reboots.

I must say that it feels like the battery life seems to have improved....

edit. Reboots did not go away. Everyday I get a reboot on this ROM. Anybody find a solution yet. A specifric program that causes this?

[Galaxy S II General] Hollowman267:
So I've recently rooted my phone (Galaxy S2) to run Cyanogen 7 Nightly 116. Everything went fine apart from I am unable to use my SIM. I've gone through Setting>Location & Security setings> SIM card lock> Set up SIM card lock. Now at the settings I find the box "Lock SIM card" has been ticked and is asking for the PIN even though I didn't lock it. I have tried all the default codes like 0000, 1111, 4321 and the last four digits from my number ect but nothing works. But its not even come up asking for a PUK code even though I might have entered the PIN wrong more than 3 times.

The phone is on contract with 02. Will asking for 02 for a code help? Even though it doesn't even ask for a PUK code? I've also tried using a SIM from a different carrier but the problem persists. The WiFi works fine, its just the SIM is some how locked. I ave also looked into the app by Chainfire but that didn't work just came back with 00000000. However it did come back with an unfreeze code but it tried using that as the PIN but it didnt work.

If you cant tell I'm new to rooting, I've spent the last 5 days trying to fix this with no avail.

I have also tried builds 115 and 114 and it is the same.

Thank you for any help in advance.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zerozoneice:
Some questions related to Nexus' camera:

1. do you guys see any kind of choppiness / lag when panning the phone around in camera / video mode (without actually shooting anything)?

2. when recording 1080p, does the same level of smoothness hold?

3. do you see any smoothness / jumpness when watching the video recorded in the question above?

//

I'm asking this because i see a lot of differences on how top notch phones (dual core 1.2 GHz+) behave when panning / shooting. The HTC Sensation for example has some "skipping / occasional choppiness" when shooting & panning in 1080p but the recorded material is smooth...strange.

//

4. What size are the panoramas shot at? Full size stiching or does it resize to something less?

5. How many photos approximately fit in a panorama shoot? Other built-in panorama modes (on Samsung or HTC) usually fit 3 images side by side.

6. Do you see any drop in smoothness of the displayed image on the screen when panning between bright (normal daylight) and darker (under a desk for example) areas?

MANY THANKS in advance!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oscillik:
I think if this kind of thing matters to you, you should be using a dedicated point-and-shoot digital camera. In the same respect that if sound quality matters, a phone isn't exactly the best solution.

All-in-one devices, by definition, cannot be the best.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zerozoneice:
A dedicated P&S soapbox can be bought for 1/3 of the price of a Nexus and delivers camera quality far better than any phone. If i want the best, i'll get a RED or a Hasselblad. But that's not in scope here.

My questions are directly related to the $650+ piece of hw/sw which stands as Samsung / Google / Android flagship phone of 2011 :)

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s.m.knipe:
I'll try while you wait for a more dedicated answer:

I do not, the speed is great. Sometimes the shutter speed is too great though, and subjects occasionally are blurry... Usually remedied by use of the "action" scene though.

I haven't tried this (1080p video) yet

N/A

It resizes (without specifying in the app/settings) before you capture the image (viewfinder shrinks a little ~ 3MP maybe?)

It is one fluid motion; like a video capture- no evidence of individual pics being snapped. Stitching seems seamless from what little bit I tested it. I am very impressed with the panorama functionality.

No, it just takes a fraction of a second to readjust exposure

Hello,

A friend is on holidays in Japan, and he suggests buying me a Galaxy Nexus.

Could you indicate to me if it will work in France, with the European network?

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gabster21:
As long as your network is GSM then it should work fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] infernalman7:
For your information, the model sold in Japan is LTE/CDMA version, not GSM.

And all other Asian markets that use HSPA do not have their device just yet. I live in Asia yet had to order one from the UK. Perhaps it's easier and cheaper to buy from UK retailers?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oscillik:
That would explain why NTT Docomo's leaked poster advertisement of the Galaxy Nexus mentions 32GB capacity...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] infernalman7:
Whoa this market discrimination is just unfair! :(

Apparently a friend of mine was saying how Australia might get the first hybrid GSM/LTE Galaxy Nexus as well, which will be very interesting. And the launch may be as early as this Friday!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oscillik:
I doubt very much that there is going to be a hybrid HSPA+/LTE Galaxy Nexus. That seems like complete balderdash, to be perfectly honest.
