another question i cannot find the sip menus in the phone.. are they missing.. i even copied the same android.software.sip.voip.xml file that i used in gb to get the internal sip stack working.. thanks
[Galaxy S II General] rathian:
I am using the old bootloader found on intratech's page... u can find it there...
[Galaxy S II General] olite:
Quite right, it's perfectly safe to run ICS using the old boot loader... the only real change made to it were made to prevent the JIG usage.

XXLP6 is the first ROM that's actually been stable for me (I'm a pretty demanding user), I only experienced one reboot which was kinda user-provoked :P

Network performance and stability were both noticeably MUCH better, gaining an average of 1.2mbps increase over the previous leak of ICS with signal strength remaining more constant.

Overall, This is a NICE demo of what's coming in the near future... and leaves me quite excited for the final release.

Note: Using a de-branded Optus Australia Samsung Galaxy.

You don't want to flash the whole ROM, just the bootloader image (Sbl.bin)... Easiest/cleanest way to do this is by downloading the files below and flashing them through Odin selecting just Bootloader. (There is no need to flash the new bootloader after resetting the counter, however for the uber fussy it may be desired.)

Not working for me :( The yellow triangle is still there.

Here's what I did:

1. Extract CF Root and copy zImage to the sd card on my phone

2. Reboot phone into download mode

3. Flash the old bootloader in Odin

4. Flash zImage in CWM

5. Yellow Triangle still there

Any ideas? :)
[Galaxy S II General] rathian:
Reason u have yellow triangle cos u flashed the CF-Root kernel... there are two ways of removing the triangle:

1. flash the stock LP# kernel

2. use a USG jig and plug it into the phone (with the old bootloader)
[Galaxy S II General] olite:
1. Reboot phone into download mode

2. Flash CF Root in Odin

3. Flash the old bootloader in Odin (can be done at the same time as step 1)

4. Insert USB JIG. (Then long hold power button to turn device back off after clearing counter and Custom ROM info)

5. Power back on, Yellow Triangle gone.

NOTE: Flashing the old bootloader does NOT reset the counter or remove the triangle, it only allows the USB JIG to be used again to reset this information. If you do not have a USB JIG (Available on eBay for just $2-$3) then the only way to remove the Yellow Triangle is to re-flash with a Stock Kernel (This will not reset Custom ROM download information but may remove root, the JIG is needed for this).
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
Root, flash stock kernel, flash zImage of CF-Root in CWM, done.
[Galaxy S II General] menkey:
I see. Thanks for the help so far, I will give it a try when my USB jig arrives.

This is what I did but my phone couldn't boot up after I flashed the stock kernel.
[Galaxy S II General] rathian:
go grab this stock kernel which i packaged and flash it with ODIN... CWM cannot be trusted and causes errors quite often...

http://hotfile.com/dl/143651503/5cda35c/i9100_XXLP6_kernel.tar.md5.html

Edit: i notice many ppl have problems flashing with cwm... i recommend flashing through odin instead as you wont have problems with data partitions or cache etc...
[Galaxy S II General] olite:
I see in your original post that you used ROM DXKI2 to reflash, while this may be the ROM you normally use... it's not an ICS ROM, what he is referring to with "Stock Kernel" is the original Kernel files released with the XXLP6 ROM (KI2 is a 2.3 ROM, where LP6 is a 4.0 ROM... the kernel's are incompatible and will not load each other.)
[Galaxy S II General] menkey:
Thank you rathian for the kernel. The triangle is gone now. That's what I suspected too, olite. Thanks for confirming. :)
[Galaxy S II General] adit17:
may i ask you something? if the triangle are gone, could you enter CWM recovery?

in my last attempt, when i reflash stock kernel (ICS kernel) the triangle gone but also my recovery...

i guess i need to reinstall recovery...
[Galaxy S II General] Judaas:
Awesome

great leak but i think i will wait for a more stable one
[Galaxy S II General] DrunkFuX666:
Usually that will be the case I believe... the stock kernel wont have the recovery naturally... because its stock... but keeping the yellow triangle as the benchmark for whether you have cmw or not isn't correct... its the kernel that makes the difference... as far as my understanding goes...

Sent from my Galaxy SII
[Galaxy S II General] adit17:
if you apply those method in GB your triangle gone and you will still have CWM recovery. but it's a little bit strange in ICS, i dunno what samsung does with their new build, :D
[Galaxy S II General] ruspa:
I tried CWM stuff but wasn't very chuffed with that. Then decided to go for mobile odin, and flashed stock LP2 over rooted LP2 (both from this tread first topic) without any problem and yellow triangle is gone.

Just a dumb question, may sound silly to many of you but... how the hell can you figure out how many custom flashes have you done? I mean, there's people that's saying around "my counter says 51 ... mine 24" from where can you tell that? I tried giving a look from phone info.. recovery menu.. but no clues ?? Is there any app or secret code to show that? Can't find any hint on google search either :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] adit17:
you can check in download mode, CMIIW...

oh one more, after flashed stock LP2 over rooted LP2, did you try entering CWM recovery?imine gone after do such method :mad:

just curious, but never mind, we'll sort it later
[Galaxy S II General] CobyBE:
I believe you can find the counter when you boot in download-mode.
[Galaxy S II General] ruspa:
I did these steps from a stock (just rooted with zerglings, so no triangle) sgs2:

1) applied an update.zip to have CWM app (i only had superuser & busybox) and I did a nandroid backup.

2) flashed (usb odin) full stock non rooted LP2 from first post of this thread.

3) flashed rooted LP2 kernel (usb odin). Got root, CWM still there (why????) and the triangle appeared. Perhaps appeared on step 1 now I'm thinking about it and I can't really remember.

4) purchased Mobile Odin, flashed stock LP2 kernel (non rooted) and root survived, so did CWM stuff and recovery. Yellow triangle is gone, this I do remember pretty well.

Can someone tell me why? I can't really understand. The only thing clear to me is that the triangle is not supposed to come if you flash from the phone, but only if you flash custom firmwares via USB (hence download mode). Why recovery menus and root apps survives if I flash another kernel? Shouldn't it erase everything? Why the stock unrooted kernel from the full package is 300 megabytes and the rooted or "original standalone stock kernel" are both just a couple of megabytes (~ 8)??

Sorry if sounds off theme but may help to sort out some of these recovery/triangle ideas over here.

---------- Post added at 10:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 AM ----------

no I never booted in cwm recovery, only in normal recovery. Now that I know you bricked and had to reflash, I won't try for sure :) No really. I still don't understand the difference from mobile odin and CWM things (apart the nandroid backup feature, if with the abundance of firmwares over the net someone really cares about that), but I feel I can stick with mobile odin. Why do you need CWM recovery anyway? Maybe after many flashes on previous sgs1 I learn something new today :)

Battery Mod

Hey guys, i didn't find anything about this searching the thread...

Is there a battery mod for this rom? I installed Nova Launcher and replaced the icons for ICS ones, now all i need to make it perfect is a blue % battery mod :)

I am guessing UOT Kitchen won't work with ICS yet, right?

Any help will be appreciated.

Cheers
[Galaxy S II General] adit17:
i need cwm recovery for flashing purpose, if there any update or custom ROM. i'm not bricked my phone, just lost direction here (lost recovery) :p. i can't use CWM manager because my recovery is gone if i use those method. i dunno why. need learning more :D

sorry to OP/mod if i out off topic, anyway LP6 quite awesome, need some polish here and there.

thanks and sorry for my bad english. :)

First real nasty

Had switched phone into flight mode overnight, and back out again this morning. Was using on 2/3G happily, but arriving at office I reenabled wifi.

It wouldn't reenable -- the notification bar icon was a greyed out green. The settings menu had no effect.

Within a few minutes of playing with this I got

[Galaxy S II General] ruspa:
not officially. A couple of official beta versions leaked from samsung, if you want to give it a try you can read the first post of this thread. I'm using LP2 and I'm quite satisfied but there are some bugs there and there.

So far, gps isn't working, and signal strenght indicator says always maximum value. The rest is quite working but need more polishing anyway.

Usable everyday.
[Galaxy S II General] stuclark:
I had that problem in LP1 and LP2, but it's ok for me in LP6. I think it's caused by how Titanium Backup re-installs the user data for the fb app.

I eventually got it working in both LP1 and LP2 by removing fb; re-adding it, re-making the account and waiting...

Anyconnect

Hi all.

Did someone tried Anyconnect? If it is working right. Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] rathian:
OMG... *face palm so hard my palm shoots through my skull*

Here's the different scenarios and how to achieve it:

Rooted, stock kernel

- Flash XXLP6

- Flash CF-Root for XXLP6, reboot and let it do its magic...

- Flash XXLP6 stock kernel here and flash the old bootloader (found on intratech's page).

- Triangle is gone, but counter registers a 1 cos u used CF-Root to root... to remove the counter, jus off the phone n plug in the jig

Rooted, CF-Root kernel

- Flash XXLP6

- Flash CF-Root for XXLP6 and old bootloader

- Reboot and let CF-Root do its magic

- To remove the triangle, switch off the phone and simply plug in the JIG, it should set the counter to 0 and remove the triangle at the same time

Non-rooted, stock

- if you have never flashed a custom kernel in your life and you dont intend to.. you do not need to flash the old bootloader and your custom counter will always be at 0.

Hope this helps...

[Galaxy S II General] rathian:
Dude, this is flashable with odin and checked with a MD5 hash... i flash this on my own device with 0 problems... another user flashed it with no problems... its a ustar format tar... stop flaming before trying this out... if u arent happy with it, go with the cwm flashable zip format or make your own...

U can check this file out with ODIN by the way... if its not a recognisable file, odin will either crash out, or give an error....
[Galaxy S II General] lgkahn:
Issues I am having...

Sip integrated doesn't seem to work. Even after manually copying the file .

Firmware info aps show csc version unknown and I have no csc directory normally resides in system.

Older HTC keyboard freezes up.

Pptp vpn now works again ... first version in awhile , but there is a new requirement that you have to have security on your lock screen... ie either a pattern or a code, and once you add vpns you cannot get back to a simple swipe to unlock until you delete your vpns. Presumeably this is because you now have the option to Remember both the vpn username and password. Thus is very annowing... I'd rather have to type the vpn password in everytime for security the few times I use a vpn then everytime I unlock the phone.

Sygic mobile and profimail require updating to latest version to work in ics.

Camera freezes when going back and forth from front to rear camera.

The center button does not work correctly or, as it did in gingerbread.. you use to be able to long press it and bring up taskmanager to kill a non responsive app. Now when a app is not responding or crashing it does not seem to work and it takes around a minute before you get a response or a popup letting you dismiss the bad app.

Missing GPS settings app. You can get around thus by being rooted and manually copying angryGPS or lbstest from an earlier rom to /system/app and using anycut from the market to add a shortcut to them.

Overall with tweaks this appears to be a pretty useable firmware.

Flashed LP6 yesterday, and saddly i lost data connection all day long, i managed to setup the device using wifi, saw a couple FC from settings and browser, disable sync options for Facebook, twitter and Google+ so the nasty acore process dont bug me but i learn that Whatsapp worked just fine and the acore processes didnt FC so my guess is:

Facebook, G+ and twitter works fine (sync contacts)

Whatsapp OK

WIFI signal +/- OK

Data doesnt work on my end, Im on 850 band, not sure if that matters

Replaced Launcher and Gallery with stock ICS apks from Nexus Prime (works OK)

Batt life was good since no data was alive :/

Scroll lags and is slowww

Camera/video works

overall is the same as LP2 IMHO

Thank you
[Galaxy S II General] stuclark:
As no one else has commented / has tried it; I've copied the libs and apks for FM Radio from LP2 onto LP6 and still don't have a working radio; then again, I never actually tested it under LP2 so that may be broken too.
[Galaxy S II General] lazyjai:
installed LP6 before I went to bed and left it charging on my night stand.

When I woke up, I had no wireless signal and couldn't get one even if I rebooted the phone. Wifi worked fine however. went into review the mobile network settings and it said no SIM was attached. At this point apps were prone to crashing and things were extremely buggy.

A battery pull and reseating of the SIM seemed to fix the problem.

Wondering if anyone else is seeing similar behaviour?

Other than this, some minor bugs and previously mentioned issues, LP6 seems to be pretty good for a useable beta.

are you getting the h+ icon.. because even with the new apn i created (note to get it to use the apn .. i had to delete the apn type from the default one otherwise it would not activate.)

I am not getting the h+ icon. but when i ran a speedtest.net in dolphin (not the app which seems slower)

I got 5.24 meg down and 1.98 up. which seems to high to just be 3g so i am thinking there is no more h+ icon anymore?

I only get theh icon
[Galaxy S II General] madmack:
It's really "faux G" but that's AT&T marketing for ya. HSPA+ as 4G and their newly created LTE network as "real 4G". :rolleyes:

[Galaxy S II General] id10terrordfw:
Icons don't mean much if the speed is there. Yes, I do occasionally get the H+ icon, I am on a grandfathered Inspire 4G plan. For the most part, 5 is about average for me at work in Downtown Fort Worth, but at my condo in N. Fort Worth, I get 8-10 on average. Technically, H+ shouldn't come into play below 7mbit, but of course on the Inspire UMTS=H+ so it doesn't really matter at all. To really be able to take advantage of the best speeds on AT&T you really need an HSPA+ plan. Sorry to say, but it is the only real way. It's how they manage their network.

It may boot up, but there will be multiple issues such as buttons not working, no voice, etc. I don't believe there is a hellraised version that works with ICS yet due to the move from the 2.x kernel to the 3.x kernel.

if flash this version using odin can i go back to the older version if i don't like it?

how do i flash it back to the older version using odin?
