(that's one of the reasons it allows you open threads/forums with browser).

Replace apps

Is there a way I can replace some of the apps with Samsung apps, like the musci player :/ and memo ??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cyberboob:
Afraid most of the built in Sammy apps don't function. You need to replace them with some other app.

Give me a minute to give you a couple of free good apps links you can subtitute.

For music: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25677362&postcount=28732

For paid apps, I like PlayerPro... some like Winamp, plenty of others.

And for memos...you can try OnePunch Note

[Galaxy S II Android Development] cyberboob:
Eh? Those aren't warez buddy. Those are apps they can get at the play store for free, and if they want to pay then can get the others I mentioned (I'm not offering them).

As for being rude, wasn't trying to be... just trying to enforce rules (which is search before ask). Like I said, probably just too insensitive for some. Will go to "Improvement Therapy" classes if have to do that? lol

I am amazed with this ROM!

- great functionality

- fully customizable

- lots of settings to suit your needs

- when screen goes off , wifi and 3g turns off, sync is scheduled to run only on user selected intervals, and this makes battery happy! :)

- reboot is soo fast!

- battery is getting low fast, but this is my first charge, so will have to wait to see results.

so far everything works as it should! I cant say that for other roms I tested.

there are some minor things but nothing much.

when toggling auto brightness It does not work immediately. you have to turn screen off and on to work. (first 2 times I had to reboot)

i am not sure, but If I reboot phone I believe wifi turns off and has to be turned on manually.

2g toggle in notification does not work, but since there is setting to go to 2g when screen off I dont miss it much.

I wish to have smaller caller image (google contacts images are low resolution so it looks bad on large phone view)

I will replace dialer, since smart search does not search as some other dialers do (search by name, surname, nickname etc., on dialer one, ex dialer etc, it searches by foreign characters also, and results are shown not only alphabetically but also on times dialed, so my friends who I call mostly are always on top. (if I pres "S" "simon" is on top and "sandra" is second because I call Simon more often.

Thanks everybody involved! now My phone is working as is should!! (I hope battery will work that way too!)

Modem for Optus?

Hey fellow Aussie Optus users.. Guys! can you please recommend a modem/radio for my sgs2 on remix 1.8? I need better reception!! Im running a so called 'optus' XXLPS modem at the moment, and while its better than the one that comes with the rom, its a little bit sluggish! if you can link me to a nice modem for optus (i live in Brisbane) I would be forever grateful!

Thanks for your response. I finally found a setup that works for me. Hooray, at last :D

I connect the USB cable with Mass storage option ticked.

This opens the internal SD card. I then tick on MTP and wait a few moments.

An icon appears in my Windows XP task bar and when I tick on this icon... voila! the 2 drives appear :rolleyes:

Samsung apps not working on 1.8.1

Hey guys,

I find this 1.8.1 thingie the best version to date. Which is great! :) The wifi still connecting a bit slow, but improved over 1.7.

However.. ::D

Samsung apps is still not letting me take advantage of it. Says that "this email address cannot be used in this country.try sign in with a different email address or sign up for an account(3013)". And yes, I have done the full wipe, and again a cache and dalvik wipe after the I played around in the ROM for a few. And yes, I read the FAQs and used the Thread Search function, so c'mon.. A real answer, pretty please? :)

Thanks a million!

Signed,

A very happy RR customer

This ROM is almost perfect for me, except for the fact that a lot of downloads from the Play Store don't work anymore. Like, if I lookup Sims Freeplay the Store tells me it's not compatible with my device. Is there something I can do to fix this? Or is it an AOKP thing I'll have to accept?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sun90:
no first note down ur current KERNEL by going to Settings>about phone> kernel version

example if its like this "2.6.35.7-I9100XXKG1-CL349526"

then search for a cf root kernel that maches the bold letters above

like this for above one "CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG1-v4.1-CWM4.tar"

then fallow the procedure in the links 2 flash the same

please ensure 2 backup ur current rom before doing anything also search for "guide 2 recovery and rooting for SGS2" on xda search and read the same carefully

if ur used 2 flashing ,rooting etc thro ODIN or CWM then its ok

You can also tweak auto brightness levels under extweaks when you're using siyah kernel.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] M3th0s:
The only thing you have to do with those guys claiming 2days + worth of battery is look at their screen usage. Last screenshot I checked, it was at 6%. So yes, in essence you're right. With very low usage you can get this phone past the 2 days mark (been there, done it). Most of the time, the phone will be in deep sleep.

Looking at your screenshot, I can see a different story, with heavy usage, so don't be surprised that it does not last 2 days. Bottom line is, with heave usage, you'll probably still be charging the phone everyday (heavy usage meaning gaming, videos, youtube, mobile surfing, etc).

To anyone that says they can use the GS2 for 2 days with heavy usage, I say post your screenshots with your screen times :)

Hope this clarifies it
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gundalbert:
Hi all,

as said before (search for my posts in this thread), I wasn't happy with the fixes given in the FAQ for this issue because of various reasons.

I still could not get it to work with the vold.fstab and I'm giving up on this ;-)

So I developed a little app which will react on the mount-intent of /mnt/sdcard.

If this event is received, the app will do a remount (mount move) of the external_sd to the folder /mnt/sdcard/external_sd.

Let me know if someone else is interested in this app, I'm willig to share, but will have to make it more stable and give it a "real icon" and so on, till now it is really just basic functionality.

So... let me know.

Regards gundalbert

[Galaxy S II Android Development] M3th0s:
I charge my phone at night anyway, so as long as it lasts you the day, I wouldn't be too worried. The only thing I ever check when it comes to battery is if the phone goes into deep sleep properly therefore not leaking battery when not in use.

Latest RR roms have been working awesome in deep sleep (CM9 Kernel). Also latest Syiah's are working really well with better performance on a few aspects.

Apart from that, just do the usual: purge your phone of any apps that keep it awake and just check it goes into deep sleep ;)
