then u have to create Camera folder inside external_sd/DCIM folder.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MrPierc:
I have DCIM in external_sd folder, but its still empty :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
so create folder named Camera inside DCIM and then u can save photos to external sd card.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mom4ence:
Create manually Camera folder inside DCIM folder.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MrPierc:
YES YES YES !!! Its works. I thank you very much MyLifeRocks10 !!!

As gabo said: and still conservate all the other apps black themed as comes the ROM by default

[Galaxy S II Android Development] prd00:
I have played a bit using smsc number. It seems the rom only recognize 059126181642 instead of 0591261816421100. The 1100 ALWAYS got truncated. So some message will send, others won't.

I have also tried using Go SMS Pro, and even when the stock message app able to send the SMS, Go SMS Pro couldn't send anything. No matter what I did, Go SMS won't send anything. With Go SMS Pro, the signal always got disabled. Unless I remove my smsc number from Go SMS Pro.

This is the correct data:

05912618164211000C912618952122120000AA04F4F29C0E

And this is what is sent from the phone if 1100 got truncated

0591261816420C912618952122120000AA04F4F29C0E

Any idea regarding that truncated number?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ibsonic:
Every AOSP app, like Contacts and SMS and apps like that are standard white. But what i really want is that same background as in V1.7 in settings for example instead of the dotted black grid background. Come and visit me at AndroidWorld, I saw that u made an account last day ;-)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ogy77:
Maybe this question asked but can I flash 1.8.1 with full wipe over CM9?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vreestyle:
Edit, give me the background you want.

I'll place it in the zipfile.

I can't modify all the little png's inside the framework of the defaulted themed Gapps.

Because the can't be seen, black on black.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ibsonic:
Okay, cant i change it myself ? I just want the classic themed apps with V1.7 background.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
well i have no idea about that but u can change ur message center from old phones and then insert ur sim to s2 or may be enter more than 16 digits and hit update so it may get truncated to 16 digits.

Hey, I was on RR 1.7, 1.7 whenever I install 1.8 or 1.8.1 I loose root acess, tried wipeing cashe and dalvik and fixed permissions, no luck :confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
The classic themes of v1.8.1 comes with the background of v1.7 yet :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ibsonic:
weird ? i dont have that one ? just tried it .. -_-
[Galaxy S II Android Development] prd00:
No.. I couldn't. The problem is not with the smsc number or my sim card. My sim card has already stored the correct smsc number when I switch to my nokia phone. Nothing to update or change there. Even when I use PureICS the sim card shows the correct number and able to send sms reliably. The problem is that the number got truncated to 12 digits with this rom, thus the smsc number won't be sent correctly. I have tried to enter more number, but it always got truncated. If I put the entire number, there will be an error when I press update.

I have already found a workaround here, but I don't know if I can use this reliably..

But at least, I can send sms now. Go SMS Pro is still a no go. Can't send any sms from Go SMS Pro.

Awesome ROM!

I just flashed Resurrection Remix ics v1.8.1 and I can say that you guys are AWESOME!!! Keep up the good work and know that there are people that appreciate your work!

Until now everything works fine! Still a have 2 questions:

1. Is there a way to adjust the vibration level on the haptic feedback (somewhere in the setings??)?

2. Can I find some screenshots with the themes available for this ROM so I can choose one that I like?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] anirudhshirsat97:
Sorry i flashed the 1.7 version, trying the 1.8 now, hope it solves it.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
for haptic feedback its not possible to change with cm9 kernel. but with siyah kernel and extweaks app u can change that.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sun90:
there r only 2 themes one is black themed the other is classic this v1.8.1 comes with black theme as standard check the same opening contacts, gmail,sms,youtube etc

Talk.apk

Hey guys small problem so i'll just describe what i did. Was coming from CFroot stock rom s2, ICS 4.0.3:

Data wipe/factory reset

flashed Resurrection Remix ics PitchBlack V1.8.1

cleared cache and delvik

rebooted

-everything works fine here except i have no talk app, found the apk in system but it wasnt in app drawer or app list-

Tried flashing (05/05 updated) PitchBlack Theme +polaris office.zip

That added polaris but still no Talk

deleted the talk.apk in /system/app using ES file explorer, copied the talk.apk from latest ICS gapps, set permissions to rw- r-- r--

Success! but no black theme of course.

Any attempt to copy in the black talk.apk from the gapps+polaris zip in OP does not work.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sunny_ag:
I am using this ROM for the first time and its quite cool...

but how to install (05/05 updated) PitchBlack Theme +polaris office.zip ?

It's not necessary unless you want Polaris Office, the ROM have the Pitch Black theme by default, if you need polaris then flash the .zip from recovery ;)

Installed this ROM and I am loving it. It is perfect for me. Any known bugs? I have used it for few hours only, so haven't faced any issue yet.

Also, is there any way to delete multiple contacts? The stock ROM of S2 gives you the option to that. Currently my contact list has gone fubar due to some idiotic thing I did. And its quite PITA to remove them. If not possible in this version, please look into including this feature in any of the future releases.

And one more thing, can we disable the vibration on the lock screen? I didn't find any option for that.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pigmachine:
No possibility to remove lockscreen vibration yet.. as far as I know
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
It's not possible, you need to delete one by one

[Galaxy S II Android Development] takato23:
hey, i have a problem when i do or recive a phone call. The people don't hear me for about 2 seconds... how can i fix it?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pigmachine:
Make a backup of the /system/app/Talk.apk name it Talk.apk.bak or something, then with root explorer move the new file to /system/app/ (you need to make the dir writable btw (mount r/w)) and reboot and hope for the best :)

EDIT-> bad and messy explanation.. but I'm off to bed now :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] joshjoshajosh:
Ah ofcourse sorry yes! will try that now, I use ES file explorer as my root explorer, best app ever! :D

Update - that one didn't work either I'm afraid. only working one so far is the latest gapps one

Copied in with root explorer then permissions set every time, just to rule that out
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pigmachine:
Glad you understood the mess I was writing :)

one more thing make the permissions of the file rw-r--r-- (= user read write, group read, other read) If that isn't the default
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Do This

I did a while ago and then went back to hydro's. Just flash the cm9 kernel first, reboot your phone then go back into recovery, wipe data/cache, format system etc, install this rom. Do not forget to flash cm9 kernel, once you on the rom, you can flash to siyah or whatever. Good Luck.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] joshjoshajosh:
Lol nah your instructions were fine, but none of these dark Talk.apk's are working :/ only the light one...so i'm fairly sure i've got the procedures right. I mean it should have been working from the fresh install really, something about the dark Talk.apk my phone doesnt like
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pigmachine:
You tried to reboot too after?

Guess I have a really lucky phone.. that never fails me :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] joshjoshajosh:
lol :P yeah after every copy/permission change i'm rebooting. I've had issues with talk before, its a pain in the a** when its not working!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] joshjoshajosh:
Well i checked the permissions myself after flashing

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/15092-invertedtotally-inverted-apps-4-22-contacts-and-mms-updated/

this one, i could reflash that and try the permissions fix i guess

---------- Post added at 09:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:25 PM ----------

The thing is the stock gapps Talk.apk is working just from copying over/manually doing the permissions... and the fact that it didnt work after the clean install makes me think its something more complicated
[Galaxy S II Android Development] D3adm0nk3y:
I am on 1.7 right now. Is it worth updating to 1.8.1 ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rahulsuneja:
You can do that using an app from the Play Store, named, Contact Remover Plus. It has a free version & a paid as well. The paid one is definitely worth it. Go on and read the description of the app for more details.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Paulx10:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] joshjoshajosh:
As i suspected, no joy. Thanks for trying though, I'l just stick with white Talk.apk for now lol
[Galaxy S II Android Development] deweini:
you, mr. westcrip, were the first one to get me to ics and let me stay there, because your rom was the most stable, clean and fast out there for months.

but sadly (my opinion) some updates made it worse, some improved it a bit etc... while other devs make good roms now too, maybe even better ones.

i still flash yours once in a while when theres a new big update, but there are some things that bother me.

don't misunderstand me, no rom is perfect, although yours started to greatly improve since 1.6 again.

just one thing bothers me most: why is there no taskmanager-button in the task-screen or even in the menu?

what i do like a lot is the rom manager, the easy installation process and the (newly) slim size of it.

thanks for your great rom and the effort you put in it, you helped custom roms get started on ics sgs 2.

i'll be back when there's a taskmanager-button, until then: good luck and continue with your good work! ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] joshjoshajosh:
Just an FYI - all the dark talks i have tried are actually identical files -

the ones from:

and obviously the one in the OP polaris zip
