Dear all,

After upgrading to Ice cream, I can't access market anymore. It says connection error. Can anyone tell me where gone wrong?
[Galaxy S II General] zitseng:
Turn on Wifi, and configure to connect to your Wifi network. Reboot. Then launch market. You should get to an Agreement page. After that, market will work with or without Wifi.

How does one activate the lbstest mode in this LP6 ROM? I tried *#*#1472365#*#* and *#3214789650#, both don't seem to do anything for me.

Any advice appreciated

Firstly hello & thanks to everyone for all your efforts so far.

I'm a long time XDA lurker although I do donate where I can.

I'm having a bit of an issue which I could do with some advice on, and if anyone can provide any I'd be very grateful.

I am quite familar with Oden/ADB/SuperOneClick/CWM/Superuser/Busybox/etc.

Yesterday I downloaded and installed XXLP6 (ICS 4.0.3). It went on fine with no problems. Before flashing I did a TitaniumBackup (Pro) and transferred said backup to both my computer and external SD card. I also did a backup with CWM Recovery.

Now, as I use a lot of apps which require root, I downloaded the recommended CF-Root for XXLP6. I flashed with Odin.

Rebooted. Superuser was installed, a Busybox installer was present and the custom CWM that chainfire includes was there.

BUT - root is always denied. I can't upgrade the Superuser binary from Superuser, can't upgrade Busybox from the installed, TitaniumBackup Pro can't get root... it goes on. Terminal SU is denied.

I have redownloaded and reflashed with CF-Root multiple times (my binary counter is now about 18, 8 of which is the CF-Root).

I have tried SuperOneClick 2.3.3. This says I am rooted but I still can't get root.

I have tried wiping the cache partition, dalvik cache and even a data wipe and reset - before and after flashing with CF-Root.

I have also tried downloaded odia's XXLP6_insecure, flashing with that and re-running SuperOneClick. It looked successful, like pre CF-Root flashing, but I still couldn't get root.

Basically, I've tried everything I can think of to root this ICS XXLP6 but I just can't get SU permission.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Yours Faithfully

Sly

Edit: PS: /system/xbin is present, and contains at least SU

did you know that by default google + will upload all of you phone photos? That is really showing some nerve. Who will want such a feature?
[Galaxy S II General] tjtj4444:
They are uploaded to your private album at Google+, why is this a problem? It is a great feature except that the quality is scaled to 3 megapixels.

And this is something that Google is very open with, this is no hidden feature. In fact when you first start the app you are shown a very obvious information/setting screen only concerning "Instant upload" where you can choose to have this feature on or off.

hello i gues this is a bug but about batery my phone was perfect

yesterday flashed KP8 and had a lot of bugs so was late and decided to sleep and change de room today but today i looked at batery and was full

so went to batery in settings and i lost 2% overnight

but i used like surfing and reading face and that stuffs and lost more 3%

i would like to put a screenshot but the TW one s not working and i dont have app for that so that is the batery is not draining at all here

PS: wifi and gps on, facebook and twiter on auto update i guess it is all to use batery overnight
[Galaxy S II General] IakobosJ:
Right... Here's my experience with this ROM (KP8)

Installed go launcher Ex and i now have no more FCs.

Face unlock works perfectly for me, no force closes there either.

Battery is fine, its not quite as good as gingerbread with siyah kernel but it seems fine so far.

I have not once had the phone overheat on me.

The browser has no lag and works great. I LOVE the new browser (apart from the new scrolling method)

WiFi works better than ever and my mobile network.... Well.... WOW i've never seen signal like this, it's bloody amazing.

I am keeping this as my daily driver and shall report anything else I find :)

Yes just done that reverted to original rom KDD via odin flashed a KI4 cwm and root kernel restored phone to current setup via Nandroid backup .

Think not due to different bootloaders but not 100% sure .

I know KP8 kernel will soft brick older firmware if installed .

[Galaxy S II General] Panzertand:
Hmmm running kp8 and is working more than perfect here. No fc,s sofar. Some apps just don't work yet on ICS but that is the app's fault. Things discovered sofar: emerency call button not completly in screen but functional. No ICS lock screen or live wallpapers availeble. No swype yet. In my opinion suitable for daily use if you can handle the fact that not everything is working 100% as it should but some 95% it is ok in my case, which is good enough for me.

It is however still in beta, i found out because sometimes the homescreen or app drawer was empty on returning there for some reason. This means it opens but the screen is empty and no apps can be seen or selected. This was also the case with the first boot i made after flashing the kp8 rom and then trying to go into contacts or the dialer. It Was functioning but empty so not usable at thst point however After reboot everything was ok.

OTG implementation improved but not as Galaxy Nexus

I tried the previous (I9100OXALP1 & I9100OXALP2) ROMS, both crashed to KERNEL PANIC when I attached an unknown USB device using an OTG cable (powered USB HUB, Mouse, Keyboard).

This ROM no longer crashes, which is good :) , but the Nexus Prime (Galaxy Nexus 4.0.2 I9250XXKK6) works with the hub seeing the attached devices Mouse/Keyboard etc, so still some work to do in this area.

All of the ROMS worked with external USB memory sticks.

Really liking LP6 with really the only caveat being occasional failures to resume from sleep (once a day?). Sufficiently annoying to nearly make me go back to GB, though otherwise it's a delightful rom.

Hi,

I'm getting a new Galaxy S2 today. I'd like to flash the old bootloader so I can reset the custom kernel counter. I am planning on doing everything with Odin, but I'd like to know if someone can tell me which order I should do it in. As far as I see, I have the following 3 things to flash:

Old bootloader

ICS Kernel with root and CWM

ISC ROM XXLP6.

Can anyone tell me the best order to do this? Will I be able to boot in to gingerbread with an ICS kernel, and from there back up the EFS folder, or should I do it in stages like this:

Gingerbread Kernel with root and CWM

Backup EFS

Old bootloader

ICS Kernel with root and CWM

ISC ROM XXLP6.

Thanks!

James
[Galaxy S II General] jamesking420:
I think I've answered my own question!

I need to follow the process to install ICS, then follow the process to install a rooted version of the kernel.

The new bootloader can follow at any time - so I think I'll do the following process:

Check everything boots OK

Install Gingerbread rooted CF CWM kernel

Check everything boots OK

Backup efs folder

Install old bootloader

Check everything boots OK

Install ICS LP6

Check everything boots OK

Install ICS rooted CF CWM kernel

Check everything boots OK

Hopefully this is right, I'll post back if I have any problems so people know whether or not to follow this technique!

Not that this helps much but I'm worried we will never get a really well working ICS for the SGS2.

I downloaded a ALPHA version for a Motorola Xoom 3G (MZ601) two weeks ago and that Alpha was working nearly flawlessly even though it is NOT Motorola's latest model and NOT top of the range. Meanwhile Samsung is still d*cking around updating their flagship device (excluding the Nexus here) to a well working version of ICS. Not very impressive...

May I ask what Motorola changes they had done to their software? I'm pretty sure XOOM is pure AOSP. Now another question, what has Samsung done with their software? Oh I know! They put touchwiz on it doh... It's got video codecs, skins, optimizations and custom apps. Wow, it sounds like they added 2+2 don't it? Oh wait, if one 2 is ICS and the other 2 is tw, OMG! They have to do twice the work~

I've been running this since it came out and after applying GPS and calendar fix, and disabling software update, this has been running really well. There are some apps that aren't fully compatible and the occasional freeze but as it is an alpha, I'd say 98% of the time its running great, good battery life and fast response.

This thread has all the answers to any issues listed about 10 times for those who can't read, getting fed up with repeat questions every day...

To all noobs, please read this thread beginning at the first post, then u can skip to about a week ago when xxlp6 was released and read from there, without skipping. If you have never flashed before this is not the firmware for you. Please use stickies in the forum to learn about cwm, cfroot, Odin, roms, kernels etc. before attempting any modification to your phone.

There are 2 features missing, 3g/2g network selection and some vibrate options.

I installed this new ICS rom and now my 3x4 portrait keypad doesn't work as normal. I can't seem to type any letters, just numbers and symbols. I need to use qwerty also when in portrait mode.....

[Galaxy S II General] ManMOuntain:
LP6 is definitely the best ICS ROM so far but unfortunately suffers from random kernel panics and high battery drain.

Going back to GB 2.3.6 feels like such a downgrade as ICS, minus the issues I've encountered, runs incredibly well on the SGS 2. Felt like a new phone :)

Fingers crossed these issues are fixed soon in a new ROM, I'm already suffering from ICS withdrawal.

Fetch an older Market APK (e.g. 3.1.something) and install it. Bam. Works.

I've never had a kernel panic with this rom.

3g works great.

Keyboard is great, no issues, Samsung has improved this but the ics keys in the market is better.
[Galaxy S II General] natzy85:
nope. It does not work. I think they need to update the app.

@ManMOuntain : what are the differences between ICS and GB?

Here is what I found out until now for the ICS:

the Browser is better;

- I like the fact that you can have notification screen in the lockscren

- the facelock is cool;

- the battery seems better then GB;

- the data usage statistics and data limit;

- the voice dictation is ok;

Other then that I don't really see any huge difference. Are there special developed apps for ICS? Thank you!
[Galaxy S II General] slisgrinder:
I didn't closely observe the root cause for the heating and battery drain but turning off Wifi and Bluetooth solved all that for me. Over all this is a kickass alpha, waaay better than 2.3.3 I was running a couple of days ago. Thanks a bunch for making this available!
