Read this!

For some days now I use the Ressurection Remix 1.8.1 ROM in combination with the Siyah 3.2.2 Kernel.

I really like this piece of code but I also want to share my impressions and thoughts about improvements with you, so I have some comments about this ROM. I hope westcrip reads this and considers this for his code:

personal experiences:

- I am pleased with the battery drain, for me it's no problem to use my SGS2 for about 1,5 days with the original battery. I think that earlier versions needed a bit more of battery, so an upgrade or a different kernel could help.

- To add more than two app-shortcuts to the lockscreen it is necessary to enable it through the lockscreen style to e.g. quadruble or octuple, then you can add the add the shortcuts

To my mind this should be improved:

- I and many others really like the new option to use the LED out of the locked phone. BUT it does not work every time, sometimes it is necessary to try it twice or three times and I did not find out why. the next thing about this LED-feature is that if you press the power-button a bit longer, the phone shuts down, but in this case shut-down/restart should be deactivated. So westcrip is it possible to fix this?

- In earlier times having Samsungs Stock ROM 2.3.4 I used the function to press the home-button twice to start the voice-actions. Is it possible to define an shortcut for pressing the home-button twice? If no, maybe westcrip could add it? Also the Galaxy S3 has this function.

- I would really appreciate if there's a stopwatch in the Ressurection Remix Watch like in the original ROM, shouldn't be a big thing or?

Tell me what you think about my thoughts!

To all the people who made mods for backgrounds of System UI and Dialer and for who uses...

The mods of v1.8.1 not work on v1.9 because some system files change, when i have the files of the final release i made the mods and then if you want (modders) you can use it as base.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but the Play Store doesn't seem to display all the apps that I have installed.

I'm running at 184dpi. Going back to 240dpi doesn't seem to change a thing. Clearing market data is useless too. Help pleasE?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
What apps are missing? How do you know that?

Here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25792997&postcount=29853 maybe helps :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] RobSalgado:
Hi guys. Some one can tell me wich "app" (or something) I have to backup for save the 3G Data transfer? You know, the ICS stock feature with graphics. I dont wanna miss that info in every update.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fransarj:
Like I have Evernote installed on my phone but when i go to the playstore-> my apps. It's not there. I have 180 apps installed but only 75 are showing up on the play store installed apps tab.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
Sounds like the issue of compatibility, the link that i pass you could help, if you want to try, go ahead.

Btw, the first recommendation it's clear data and cache of playstore, but also the data of the Google Services Framework i don't know if you clean this too yet
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AndresOrue:
if u go to my app -> all -- u can see it ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
I don't know if Titanium Backup could do that, maybe some app on the Backup/Restore tab contains this, somebody knows more about this issue guys?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fransarj:
Yes I can and when i select it, it says, "your device isn't compatible with this version."

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling play store but still the same results.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AndresOrue:
i think only with third-party application. if i not wrong with 3G Watchdog u have an option to export to csv file

u already tried that gabo post?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
Flash this zip,don't open play store, clear data of play store,google services framework and reboot.

If ur play store gives error on opening after reboot then clear play store data and open ur play store again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
Good night community, if everything goes well, tomorrow is day of new release!!! ;)

Brace yourselves, the questions are coming!!!! :D:D:D:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AndresOrue:
Have a good night mate ;), because tomorrow you will have to answer many post :p :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CataVlad:
havent read ur entire post mate, but i can tell ya what i think bout this line: yeah, i miss the old samsung clock app as well. with all its functions and aspect. so as many features and UI aspects of the aosp roms. but at least this rom runs buttery smooth and it has its own nice parts, like being able to color the status bar time, the default circle battery, the lockscreen color change and a few more. dont know if the compromisse its worth taking, but so long i can deal well with the RR :D lets see what we can do more in the next version :)

Permissions Denied in ADB

Hi there, could someone please help me out here with regards to using adb as a root user. The followings outlined my problem:

1. "adb root" in cmd has been denied superuser permissions. Try looking in system settings but could not find anything relating to allow root in adb;

2. Tried mounting system as r/w in Root Explorer and pushed an apk file to /system/app using adb and got permissions denied;

3. adb shell has been denied permissions when typing "su" [phone's screen was turned on just to make sure not to miss the superuser prompt but nothing. Tried clearing data in superuser app but still nothing.];

4. Root applications have no problem in gaining superuser permissions from superuser app, however, in the log, shell has been denied superuser permissions;

5. The same goes when typing "adb remount".

I have v1.8.1 installed. Did a fix permissions in recovery, extended full wipe, reboot the phone a couple of times, nothing to get adb as root user working.

Is root in adb being disabled in this version of the rom or have I missed out any settings? Someone please help.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sun90:
simply reflash the rom without any wipes reboot and check ur play store should wrk fine:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
what happened? make sure u have phonesky.apk in system/app instead of vending.apk, if u have both then delete vending.apk and follow all the steps.

Also flash this only if u r running on dpi other than 240.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rauschkugl:
Westcrip can you please make the incoming call screen and phone.apk for the new version work with 160dpi. This is the only issue I have now.

Balls to it! I'll wait for 1.9 and wipe it!

Some Problems :))

Guys, as i use for a long time, i can say that this ROM is incredable/super, but there is some issues, i shared this rom and introduced it on a Turkish local forum, and the guys who installed it, they loved it, but they told me some problems/issues, i just gonna list them, if you can fix, or give some advice, we gonna be very glad,

1. The contacts numbers can not be sended to other person via SMS or Bluetooth, And with other file manager can not be sended files (except of music or photos)

2. Who comes from VK rom to this rom, they say that they can not setup their apps trough Titanium Backup, because phone doesnt recognise sdcard.

3. There is problems with usage of 3G internet, it doesnt give that performance,

4. WIFI sometimes do not see, sometimes can not connect, sometimes simultaneously switching off itself.

5. GPRS APN settings can not be SAVED!

THANK YOU GUYS!! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fransarj:
Yes, great rom however:

1. I too miss the samsung voice actions (vlingo) via double tap home button.

2. The phone randomly shuts down every 1-2 days for some weird reason

That's it actually. Best.rom.ever. :)

If you check the themes and apps section there is a modded samsung clock package that works on aokp roms it has all the features of the clock package and is even themed it has the stopwatch and world times and timer options also:D:D:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] terranhms:
Unfortunetely there is no answers for these issues bro..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
1) I don't know about u but i can send contacts through bluetooth. for sending files try bluetooth file transfer.

2) Sd card contents is in emmc folder instead of external_sd

3) For 3g try changing ur modem.

4) change ur wifi channel to 11 if it is 13.

5) after installing rom, reboot once and u can save ur apn settings.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] terranhms:
Thank you bro, what about changing modem, can you please write about it more detailed??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] quijote1:
Hi folks,

I went on vacation for a week and now am 100 pages (1000 posts) behind. I'm trying to catch up. While we wait for 1.9, I have a question.

I'm still using 1.1 because AOSP has too many nice features that I'm not willing to give up. 1.1 is a terrific ROM. I'm using the Siyah kernel that was current when I installed the ROM.

Question: will the newest Siyah kernels work with AOKP?

THANKS

Duhhhh - Edit: Question: will the newest Siyah kernels work with

AOSP

?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] strenkp:
hello. I have big trouble

via my email, I have received my paycheck screenshot lets say on 01.05.2012

I did not asked it to be synchronized, but when I open gallery, I have:

Camera, Instagram, download, Screenshot ... and 1 screenshot from my mail, my paycheck. What the hell? Who asked this ROM to synchronize such private info to show on main screen after I open gallery?

I`m not allowed to delete it or to change it, nothing. its there

ideas?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
U can find all the details about modem from here
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sun90:
yes the newest siyah kernel wrk on AOKP but not on AOSP:)

---------- Post added at 03:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:06 PM ----------

under accounts and sync in system settings turn off sync and check:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] anirudhshirsat97:
Tried that method. Still not working :(:(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
Are u receiving any errors? otherwise try it from here
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sun90:
just reflash the rom without any wipes and check for the same:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] strenkp:
I have tried that allready before. I have even deleted my mail with this screenshot, but my phone still keeps picture stored.

when I see properties of the picture, it tells me date and size, but not location where it is stored

why the hell I can`t delete it. this is bullsh1t

[Galaxy S II Android Development] CataVlad:
hehe, thanks 4 the tip :-) hope i find more "patches" there to make it look more aosp.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] westcrip:

restore working?

Hi,

I was wondering if i can get back to previous versions of 2.3.6 Because last time i had really problem with it

And one more thing, again. Is greek language supported in the keyboard? Swype?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] thekit:
ICS is very tempting... although lot of bugs :p

very appreciate ur rom.. it is Stable but not 100% stable (in my opinion it is usable) oh well, maybe because i wanna taste ics so much so i can live with it 55555.

Anyway i am using V8 for a day now.. restored app 1 by 1 from titanium not dare to do batch restore as this ics is totally new compare to 2.3.6.. Here are what i have found so far:

- Polaris does not work.. using QuickOffice and Kingsoft Office insread.

- Sometimes contacts did not show up properly during the phone call.

- Waiting for Data Services quite long when restarting the phone, i just disable data services and enable it again to gain the data services quicker!

- Got some random restart during the call :eek:

- Unable to copy, edit, delete, rename files to/within external sd by using esexplorer, doggie, astro) but surprisely 'my files' is working ok (but i don't like it as not many functions such as cannot rename the file extension).

- Got fc when trying to select 'Network Operators'... it does the searching tho but then just fc without any network found (i live in Thailand, using AIS network)

Thank you very much for your hard works :D

Please keep doing it... this is the greatest ics rom for gs2 so far

PS. just a quick question, if I purchase Root Explorer.. will it be able to copy/rename/delete files to/within external sd? as Esexplorer also has Root Explorer function but still unable to do those operations to the external sd.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] aurelm:
Tested both 7.4 and 8.0 and 8.0 is WAY more stable and smoother. However from 8.0 a lot of apps are missing, some live wallpapers etc. Some of them are different.

In 7.4 I could restore all mys sms'es using sms backup and restore however in 8.0 if I manage to restore (many times it crashes) all sm'ses are split into strange conversation threads instead of just 1 per person.

All in all 8.0 is the way to go for speed and stability. Almost no crashes at all.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bungknees:
No, you must be the only one. :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] iqzy:
Is everything the same (interface wise) on the 8? Should I go to 8 or 8.1? I don't understand the other stuff he asks us to download, the patch. Looks kinda long!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kerko:
please answer. I am waiting to flash

1. If I am not happy can i go back to 2.3.6?

2. greek language in keyboard?

2. Swype working? Slide it?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bungknees:
Do a nandroid backup of your current rom, then flash whatever you want, and if you dont like it ir it doesnt have the features you want, just restore your nandroid backup, and youll be back to what you started with.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kerko:
I am asking because i could not do it last time. Someone said i should use the kernel of the nandroid..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] letzky:
In 8.1 version all the words, in System Setting, are not traslated and many backups from titanium backup cannot restored. Now I use 7.4 version and I think that is fantastic.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bungknees:
That was only a problem with nandroids from cwm v4 restoring on cwm v5, Ive done what i said a hundred times without an issue.

What rom are you on at the moment?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Chicolisto21:
Ummm dumb question, idk if someone has asked this but how can I delete all the repeated contacts at the same time?? I've been looking how to but don't know how.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] beston94:
Hello, I just read the OP and I've seen that they said that it is Completely Fluid...Can any user confirm this? When I heard completely fluid, I took it that it would be as fluid as a normal touchwiz rom.

Could anybody help me answer this question?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nizzay!:
Does this rom have call recording?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gambit333:
Try Widget locker, it will allow you to put a widget on the lockscreen (provided you have a weather app that allows widgets!)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rauschkugl:
It also works on aosp. Aokp and cm9 are based on aosp. Siyah kernel works for all rom versions.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ChilliBo:
in menu->settings->display u can enable weather for lockscreen...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] a5ian300zx:
Hi,

i have the latest version installed but don't seem to get notifications from the ebay app? does anyone else have this issue.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] M3th0s:
You need to "remove data" under the "Gallery" app so that it resets and re-synchs.

Should work after that.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mayank shekhar:
that option is not present in this rom
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bionicjew:
hey man, yeah I have this issue as well but I'm pretty sure its the app as Ive used it on stock ROMs and three custom ROMs and hardly ever get notifications
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mayank shekhar:
thanks mate!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
u can also set lockscreen weather from rom control->lockscreen options->lockscreen weather. also make sure u have enabled weather in weather options.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kshting:
Anyone???? Please.....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
I have just tested it and it is working for me so it is not the problem with rom.

I suggest u to flash rom again by formatting system also.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AndresOrue:
Not. for mount automatically stickmount and for unmount Al Mass storage .. ( stickmount doesn't unmount the pendrive)

Using XDA Premium over Resurrection Remix ICS, the Best Rom ever made
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ChilliBo:
ah i see, that was for vk rom, in rr rom u need to go Settings -> Rom control -> lockscreen and enable weather

EDIT: to got this working, u need to enable weather too in rom control!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] technotika:
Hi chaps - seemed to have lost my gtalk app on 1.8.1 - do I need an APK to flash it back ? thanks!

Thank you @MyLifeRocks10.

Would you mind giving me the md5 hash for v1.8.1 please, I couldn't find it anywhere in this thread.

Funny there is no md5 hash provided for the downloads. :)

Edit: By the way, I noticed you are using Siyah kernel, I am actually on the cm kernel that came with this rom, could this be the caused of it ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
