no fc but a lot of hangs and quick bootloops

Anybody facing the same problem?

Happened after using latest version for a day, everything was good after a wipe data n all but the phone now is seriously dead since I can hardly click anything before the screen goes black and soft boots (plays the boot logo n starts) but keeps hanging after. Batt pull/wipe cache/wipe dalvik... Nothing helps

Anybody? Help

I used the XXLPQ stock release when it came out, and after a week or so I had issues like you.

I went back to VillainRom 3.0 (2.3.5 android) as it does everything I need for a daily phone with great battery life, and connectivity, and screen response.

I'm not messing with ICS anymore... It's not better then my phone was ALL-AROUND. So it's not a complete upgrade. Rather have a balanced phone that can do everything without any problems as opposed to working with a few of the latest features that are not implemented or working correct, and other stuff hit or miss.

To each their own, but I like to use my phone.

i was using 9.5 with vert, loved it, and never got a reply about dpi.

i run 2 i9100's.... i left the other on checkrom as my daily driver, the speed difference was CRaZY...

600k vs 4500k..... that along with dpi problem has me leaving ICS.

I was spoiled with my Gnex running AOKP, and i guess it will be a long time before all those options are available for this device, so i say thanks for the hardwork, but im sticking to GB, it just runs SO much nicer, stable, FASTER both using and download/upload speeds.

this post is to help those contemplating making the flash...

yes its cool new ics, but not worth it yet IMHO, maybe in a month or so when roms are tweaked, and everyone decides on a base to use ( and sammy stops releasing otas)

give it time, good things come to those who wait.

back to checkrom with the AWESOME kitchen.

Hi Wanam,

Also, any tips on getting better battery life? I've disabled fast dormancy as my carrier doesn't support it but so far finding battery drains quite rapidly. Maybe I just need to give it time to calm down or something.

Cheers,

Can someone plz extract and post bootanimation.zip ?:) i was trying a different one and forgot to make a copy:mad:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dirtydevious:
I've been using 9.5 with minimal problems.

As far as my testing goes this version is the most stable but still is not without its problems.

E.g.

- Calendar does not open claims that the app is missing.

- In security settings enabling remote wipe crashes.

- Some other random freezes here and there.

I would love to say good things but my experience with this rom has not been good.

I flashed 9.6 and its even worse can't even use the phone before it freezes.

Maybe I am doing something majorly wrong but this is my current experience.

As far as theming goes, I personally think the stock them is better. Let me explain. When everything is blue, its very hard to navigate, you go into settings and easily find a coloured picture to enter a settings area. When everything is blue you really need to read everything before going into the setting. The data input output arrows hsdpa wifi being blue make life hard when they are orange and green you can easily see which way data is flowing.

Just personal thoughts not sure what others think but would be interested to know how I can get this rom running as the title states. FAST & RELIABLE.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dead0:
fyi for those who like touchwiz launcher, i think i have narrowed it down to what causes the error when slimming down the rom: u need to keep the socialhubwidget.apk however im still testing further slimming

I would have to agree that latest is for sure the all round best ICS rom thus far.....

Battery much better and all functions work ..... scrolling maybe a tiny but laggy but nit enough to gripe about

I'm surprised more haven't switched to LP7 9.5

Upgrading to themed version now
[Galaxy S II Android Development] poyda69:
Fixed it but i had to "erase" the data off the phone, then re installed the ROM after a full wipe.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fidorulz:
Well biggest reason is available languages in the rom. Otherwise i'm sure more people would have switched by now
[Galaxy S II Android Development] DruNKfuX:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] bringit8:
I restored to 9.4 LPQ and tried to delete contacts and it FC'd as well. I guess I never tried deleting a contact under LPQ. I wiped and went back to 9.6 LP7 as it feels smoother and faster than LPQ.. plus the ICS theme looks so much better. I can live with this under there's a way to fix the contacts.

Thanks Wanam for your work.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] neboy:
Hello everyone, I must say that this version (9.6) is the best so far, at list for me:D.

experienced in ICS since the first version that came out. In Version 9.5 i also had a bug with contacts and with the keyboard, but with this version, no problem:eek:.

Everything works perfect and really fun to use, at last an ICS as it should be.

There is always something to improve but I have no complaints.

By the way i use SIYAH KERNEL and i'm very satisfied .

I personally would like to see the numbers of the clock in blue color, if this is my "complain" belive me i'm very happy with "wanam's" work ;).

Thanks for a graet rom :cool:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Elythor:
I have no problem with 9.6 after factory reset / format cache / format dalvik cache. Upgrading from 9.5 to 9.6 without wipe gave me a lot of FC and made the phone unusable. So factory reset FTW.

Is it possible that the problem lies with your router? Try resetting it and see if your phone connects.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tommo123:

I've tried turning wireless on/off and restarted numerous times. I'm using WPA2 authentication, I wonder if that is the problem?

Either way we have 3 or 4 other laptops all connected happily to the router so the router is not the problem. My phone was connected just fine to the router too, until I flashed 9.6.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] VenomGBR:
Flashed 9.5 with full wipe of everything, then I upgraded to 9.6 with no wipe.

Now my phone won't sleep...stays hot all the time, discharges very fast. Nothing running, refuses to go into deep sleep, only runs at 1200mhz...

Exchange services crashes on boot. I presume this is the cause.

I had to downgrade back to 9.5.

WiFi not working AT ALL now, not on 9.5, nor 9.6. What. Stuck on obtaining IP address...

Also, draining, heat, and non sleeping still happening. Noooooo

Am using 9.6 very happily here. Going without wipe from 9.5 was a nightmare but two full wipes, two installs then two more full wipes and everything so far is great. One acore FC after flashing but that was it, now everything working well.

Seems to me that, for whatever reason, I need to flash and wipe TWICE to be sure everything works... No idea why but was the same with 9.5... Remember reading something like this in another ics thread too... Bezke maybe?

Thanks again wanam...

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ApriliaM3:
Startup load order

Hi Wanam and thanks for a nice ROM.

This is just an idea that you might like to change for a future build.

It would be nice to have WiFi enabled at the initial boot before the phone tries to connect to Google servers and download your saved setting etc.

Currently it does this through your data connection and you cannot enable WiFi without cancelling the initial setup and configuring it later.

It's a nice streamlining feature that I think would be an improvement.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bungknees:
Im not having any of the issues that everyone is describing here, Im not saying this to show off but it may have to do with how i have installed 9.5. I started off with stock Lpq Rom, before Wanam had updated to Lpq, flashed 9.3(i think was based on Lpq) i had zero issues. Then upgraded to 9.4 and had some contacts fc, then when Lp7 was released i tried stock first then upgraded to 9.5, and Im having no issues at all, maybe the problem is flashing these versions straight on top of each other, even after a wipe, because the only time i had problem was when i flashed straight over a previous version of the Rom.

Just a thought.

Edit: Fyi, i have not done a full wipe at all, only format system, cache, and wiped dalvik.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] polzovotel:
wanam,

Maybe it will be a good idea on the first page to specify the "known issues" list - as quite a lot of questions are about the same bugs, that are related to the original samsung rom issues. For example, it took me some time to find that all LP7 ROM's have the same problem with Google + and for some reason do not show data usage per application (basic ICS feature, is'n it ?).

I can Assure you, there is absolutly not a single Problem with Syncing Google Account and the Contacts Phone, and the phone in LP7 is smooth and is no more freezing.

Just Follow what wanam Says : a full wipe is a must :

- BackUp your personal Stuffs,

- Wipe Factory Data

- Wipe Cache Partition

- Wipe Dalvik Cache

- Wipe Battery Stats

- wipe any thing wipable :)

- Fix Permissions, also could Help you in your case.

Great rom, been using it steadily for about 5 and a half hours now..

Flashed over AOSP phone, contacts & messages as there multi dpi capable.. I personally like 160dpi.

Definitely will be recommending this ROM to others.

The only thing I dont like is.. Lockscreen wallpaper has to be dark or positioned correctly or else you dont see clock etc.

This is no biggy tho..

Over all great ROM, great work wanam..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] method77:
Not a single problem here. Great ROM wanam! The first thing I do after installing a new version is uninstall Google+ and never had a problem with the contacts. If you don't use it then I recommend doing the same BEFORE doing the contacts sync and everything else
