Hi all,

I am still on 2.0 because the feedback from 2.1 didn't sound all that good. I was hoping 2.2 would bring some improvements from the new AOKP. But now I hear that 2.2 will come with a kernel other than Siyah. Ow, I am dual booting and if I flash some other kernel it seems like I will have a major mess on my hands.

OTOH, I have used the Slim ROM for several days now and have it configured just like RR2.0. Other than a different lockscreen, I can't tell the difference between them - well the camera works. I like having both so I guess I'll just leave it the way it is.

But reading 2 forums is kicking my ass! I've read every post on this forum. Just lucky I'm retired...

RR 2.0 ICS (AOKP)

Siyah 3.2.7.2

Slim ICS (AOSP)

Anyway I could find the apk, copy it to SD card and then install onto this rom?

Nope its a month old and everything is fine in the other rom

Just flash Siyah back after the install, and it shouldn't be any problems?

Thanks in advance

Why my 4x style lockscreen shows nothing,just a circle without any icons around it,after I slide out the circle then it unlock the phone.

Just flash the default theme, check the FAQ: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26944812&postcount=40324 First question of the section "Issues of v2.1"

Hi, M8s! glad to say u that i fixed my issue with callrecorder! dont know what exactly was the cause, but i put extracted exinos...so files in /system/lib/hw, i backup old version of total recall.apk and reflash v.2.1. now i get total recall working, so without full wipe!

@astrogambit> i check the Spirit FM and now works fine for me: wasnt the case o 1.5 and 2.0 that i used before.

Dont know what to think about Siyah since Westcrip said he found lot of bugs on it...(Westcrip's Ics> trust me i found lot of bugs on siyah kernel ..cm9 kernel really fantastic .and much more battery life .you wont be regret :) ) Curios in which version... 3.3.1 ?!?

Take care, dude, this one works only by sliding to right!!!:D:D:D

So we should help PigM to overpass fast this...meeting-point;)

I have successfully copied an app from my second rom to RR. My favorite music app is 222music which we used to have in earlier versions. It has a simple UI and plays folders, which is how my music is organized.

Anyway, I copied 222music from the Slim ROM and placed it in data /apps and then fixed permissions to rw- r -- r --. It then appeared in the list of installed applications.

Yeh I figured that, looks awesome though and I am right handed so sliding to the right is no prob, it also unlocks faster that way.

Thanks for the sympathy as i have been scouring the threads trying to figure out this problem, that i am also having. I can open messaging but as soon as i try to do anything with it (send a message, look at an older message, etc) it crashes so this is still a problem (I am using v2.1).

There was another post that mentioned Ti bkup and I also initially tried restoring messages from Ti but i have since then tried to backup messages with SMS backup and then delete messages then try to use messaging but still problems, not sure where to go from here as i have noticed others have had issues but there have been almost no fixes suggested (and I'm a bit of an android noob so am not making much headway).

Anyone else out there who is having issues with the messenger (messenger in general, i haven't even bothered trying MMS i just want regular SMSs to work) who has figured this out please let us know!

Cheers,

[Galaxy S II Android Development] LegendZenify:
Hmm, noted that you are suffering from massive battery drain?

Well, tweaking your EXtweaks settings and UV is probably gonna net you at most 5-10% extra battery life.

Nothing there to diagnose massive battery drain (if it's massive, tweaking the kernel isn't gonna do much good)

The problem may lie in your apps, and wakelocks or your usage pattern.

Get betterbatterystats mate, and dump a log after unplugging and leaving it a couple of hours leaving it in idle.

Remember to grant SU permissions by accessing the 'Alarms' tab first.

You can get it from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809

It's an awesome tool, my idle battery drain is halved by uninstalling some apps after observing my bbs log.

Oh yes the great struggle between performance and battery saving. I have been tweaking kernels etc since i had an old u8120 and what i have recently concluded is that the chefs and the cooks already tweak the kernel to such a high level of symmetry that there is very little need to change anything in extweaks, voltage etc, except maybe for vibration intensity and bln. Whenever i try to tweak the phone either lags from undervolting or chews through battery like a ravenous wolf from overclocking. By all means there are some great instructions on the subject especially the one by droidphile that you can teach yourself and compare n notes but i always end up coming back to stock settings. Have fun though, if you make a backup and always have access to recovery to reset then there is no danger at all. An sgs2 is very hard to brick, so have a party with those settings, within moderation of course.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AceSGS:
Cheers for the help. Just going through the guide now and playing around with extweaks. I don`t have many more apps on the phone then what comes with the rom. the only other apps i have on there that did not come with it are Aptoide, Boat Browser, Facebook, Lucky Patcher, Root Explorer, Table Remote and Triangle Away. Yes I know Facebook can be a battery hogger but I don`t have it syncing in the background. I know I said "Noobness" but this is one of the few things I don`t know about lol

Just first flash a different kernel then reboot recovery wipe and install zip. Also check if your sdcard etc is mounted in recovery under mounts and storage.
