Updated to 2.6 yesterday... really amazed by the smoothness. Only 2 issues so far.

Anyone has fast torch working properly?

Yesterday it did not work at all. Long pressing the power button when screen off would only wake the phone.

Today I have it worked once... and after that the power button is not functioning properly, not even able to wake the phone when screen off (could still use home button to wake it though). But long pressing power button works perfectly when screen is on.

Another problem which also exists in 2.4.1 is that when I press(not long press) the home button to wake the phone, 'recent apps' sometimes pops out.

For the record, I have followed the extended steps in FAQ to flash the rom. I'm using siyah 3.3.3d

SyncLoopWakeLock is wakelock held by sync manager. So every time sync process is running that wakelock increases. Also it may be high due to bad data connectivity. To reduce it u may remove unnecessary sync like contacts sync and check ur sync frequency.

Pardon my stupid question, but is there a way to update 2.5.3 to 2.6 without factory reset? It's just a real hassle downloading and installing all apps and arranging them in folders every version which comes out...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
Wipe cache, dalvik cache and and flash rom. But it's recommended to do full wipe.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pigmachine:
Use Titanium backup to the apps and games.

And launcher of choice to save it's settings and backup/restore the desktop (in my case Apex Pro)

Under launcher settings (Apex settings) backups.. and backup settings and backup desktop
[Galaxy S II Android Development] neerajganga:
try app2zip from playstore

it makes a flashable zip of the soft u need and u can reflash them in recovery after installing fresh rom
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pigmachine:
But does it save app data and does it 100% work on our version of the S2?

Anyone have data connection problem with this ROM? I did a factory reset before installing v2.6. Everything works fine but I cannot connect to the mobile data (Gray out reception bar, cannot access 3g network). Tried the Siyah kernel on the first try and CM9 kernel on second try but still cannot connect to data. Restored back to 2.5.3 for now.

I can't find a way to enable back the KIES mode, every time I'm just been linked to MASS STORAGE, which is cause some applications to stop. How to enable Kies mode?

Had a similar issue, but just a reboot solved my problem.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] LegendZenify:
Kies only works for Samsung roms.

It does not work on a aokp rom like RR

[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
Nope, ¿why you need KIES? I'm ask because maybe a third-party app could solve your need.

Try cleaning the data and cache from the app, then reboot the phone and try again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] neerajganga:
unfortunately it dosin save the data only the app

am using free version don knw if the paid version supports it

1) I tried changing the boot image using rom tools once and it worked but due to its limited no. of theme selection, I decided to do the manual way by moving the bootanimation.zip to the folder SYSTEM>MEDIA>/ Inspite of doing all correctly still I can't get back the new Animation ?

2) "Unfortunately, TouchWis Home has stopped working" I was re-arranging the tabs when I got this error and it just won't go away. How to restart/refresh the TouchWiz Home? a reboot doesn't do anything.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
Did u set permissions to rw-r--r-- after copying boot animation file?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
2.- Clean the data and cache from Touchwiz, also it's "normal" an erratic behavior since that app it's still on beta...

Ey, @MyLifeRocks10 it's nice to see you here. Now i'm off, good night community!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
Thanks mate. Nowadays I'm pretty busy so can't check the thread like before but when I have free time it's the first thing I do. :)

Good night mate. :)

Uninstall it then install from play store and then it works ok

It happens when ur cpu load is very high and also our fuel gayge chip can go crazy sometimes. So u don't need to worry too much.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] leonalewis:
forgot to mention its permissions are already set still it won't change.

That worked thanks.

That's weird. Anyway which bootanimation file are u trying to use? Also make sure it is not flashable zip.

Now me is on 2.6 black theme,I really don't like the black theme of Android Keyboard,is there anyway to flash Android keyboard to default theme only?Others I want it stay in black theme.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Galactus:
Temporary solution until someone more knowledgeable helps out: Download the Jelly Bean AOSP Keyboard from the play store. Using it as my default keyboard now.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
Extract LatinIME.apk from RR/default theme folder in rom file and copy it to system/app, set permissions and reboot.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jsheng007:
I found the default theme file and I installed the LatinIME.apk,now all works fine :D

For dualboot you can use Siyah kernel:)

---------- Post added at 01:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:48 PM ----------

Depends on the user mate:)

with Siyah kernel you can adjust values uc/oc and has Dualboot options

with Fluxy kernel you can adjust values uc/oc too

with CM9 simple/stock settings

you can check out GaboWinter's Index of Kernels:

Hi, I flashed the torch toggle . It seems that torch disabled the fast charge toggle . Anywhere I can enable fast charge ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vasu77:
I not able to update events in contacts do anybody have this issue
[Galaxy S II Android Development] LegendZenify:
Fast charge does nothing on our device.

On the Galaxy S2, charging current is limited to two values -450ma (usb) and 650ma.

It is not possible to set a higher charging current than 650ma, thus it is not possible to charge any faster.

Fast charge was removed simply because it is not supported, and does essentially nothing.

How to mark several contacts or all contacts and delete them ? When I squeeze setting button, I get only the following options:

contacts to view, import / Export, accounts and settings.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] astrogambit78:
Hi mate,

1. i dont use facebook app anymore, try using Friendcaster from playstore

2. depends on what kind of use/settings you want. Siyah u can change settings uc/oc and with Dualboot options.

With CM9 it is just stock settings with long battery life and good deep sleep.

try them both out mate and give 2-3cycles to see difference of each kernel:)

reverting back to stock rom

If anything goes wrong or i don't like it then

(1)- Can i use my CWM (nandroid) backup to have exactly same ROM+kernel+settings+apps+data ???

(2)- Can i directly restore my nandroid backup or I need to do wipe data/cache/partition....all these things...??

(3)- If any of these things can not be restored, plz mention...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Jibreil:
v2.6 has been rock stable & butter smooth with great battery life on CM9 remix edition kernel.

Only bug is if we install the 'Black GTalk' via AROMA, it doesn't get installed.

Keep up the great job - far best ICS themed rom ever.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sun90:
u can extract the same from the rr zip file and install it manually:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AkashAmol:
Yes nandroid backup replaces your ROM+kernel+settings+apps+data.. just like it was before backup.

You can directly restore... but wiping won't cause any harm coz you already have backup.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Jibreil:
Can you provide me with a flashable ZIP for the same, I've no knowledge on how-to do so.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sun90:
1) u can check the same under Advance backup/restore in Cwm

2) its always preferred to do a full wipe before restoring to avoid issues

3) if the above restore doesn't wrk properly or there r any errors while restoring ur Backup u can always restore a stock rom via odin and then try restoring ur nand bkp and see

Google Maps Navigation is not yet available in this location

Dear friends,

When i was using RR 2.4 and 2.4.1, I could use Google Maps Navigation without any issues. But, in RR 2.6 I am getting this error message when I try to open Navigation. "Google Maps Navigation is not yet available in this location". I did extract "com.google.android.apps.maps-1.apk" from RR 2.4.1 and installed to replace the current maps apk in RR 2.6. But, Navigation is still not working. I would appreciate if anyone shed some light on this. Would like to know, how the application enables navigation according to location and what should I change in order to make it work. Sure, there should be some way as it was working in RR 2.4 and 2.4.1 and some previous versions.

Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.. Cheers.. :laugh::good:

Pattern lock not working.

I have a problem with 2.6 and CM9 kernel. After setting a pattern lock it will request the pattern on boot and then will show this screen on subsequent locks:

Not only that I have to enter the pattern when I connect to my pc via usb and enable mass storage.

I anticipate this being a kernel issue, is there a fix/work around?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
Don't why u have that problem bcoz on mine it works without any problem. Which version r u using?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] LegendZenify:
Fast dormancy is enabled by default.

To disable fast dormancy add this line 'ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule=0' to your build.prop.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dgmorland:
I cant see anything in build.prop that looks like it is related to fast dormancy. From my googling I can see that the entry should probably be. I am not sure if AOKP uses this if it finds it in build.prop

ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule=0

[Galaxy S II Android Development] LegendZenify:
Did you use the 'Encrypt phone' function under Settings > Security?

The issues you experience sounds like it could be caused by that.

Do a factory reset and reflash the rom.

The only way to unencrypt your phone is to do a factory reset anyway.
