9.5 feels so much more fluid and stable than before. With test the battery life later but so far so good westcrip :D

One thing I did notice is that on the stock browser the find function says "Android is upgrading... " though it works perfectly fine

Great work westcrip, xda needs you :p

Edit: also the aesthetics look much cleaner and more crisp :D

Because the screen resolution can't handle it. Read the new youtube release notes it says HD video stream depends on the screen resolution of the device there fore not all devices will be able to play HD video. I may be wrong better google it.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] dmbkiwi:
Flashed 9.5 and all working very well. I've also downloaded from the OP, and installed, polaris office - as an .apk using "My files". Comes back with "X Application not installed".

This has been the same for a number of versions. Any help West? I know it works on yours, but there are many here who have the same issue.

BTW, I've followed your install instructions to the letter.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
Yes but maybe something happen, and end's a bad flashing, why you no try again? That's not a known bug :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kpyhere:
I'm at the 3rd wipe and install. The problem still occurs.

I had wiped the data, the cache, dalvik and battery, installed 9.5, installed gapps 9.5, installed gapps fixer, cleaned dalvik, cleaned cache and redo permissions.

The issue still occurs :(

backup and restore system settings?

Hi

Is there a way to backup and restore the system settings options in TB or another app?

Have searched around but can't seem to find anything concrete.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hazwheel:
what phone do you have?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ybother:
Have you tried deleting the downloaded files & download again?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ybother:
Yes TB can backup your system settings but bare in mind that if you install all system settings into a different ROM, you will have problems. I install all my apps and them choose the system settings that I want. The fewer system settings you restore the more stable it will be.

I have found the restore in Nova launcher the best way of getting my screens back as I want.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] browngeek:
Cheers, I guess I've been doing that already, however I can't seem to find which files to backup for example to save my display settings or my sound settings, stuff like that. I know I can backup and restore things like my wifi points etc.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] FabricioGS:
I'd like to try somethin between 20 and 40%, if you could make 20/25/30/40 I'll test it for you :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] PatrickWu:
You can't backup system data - as you know all these data are supposed to be erased during rom installation, since recent roms we install are full-wipe.

All apps you can find in Titanium can be backed-up and restored together with its data.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cryshop:
That would be so nice :)

Maybe some want to know, the CRT animations works pretty well, at least for me, i'm tested all the afternoon and works fine (without flashing) but if i use some app or widget to lock the screen then starts to appear the flashing.

Just as feedback ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] PatrickWu:
Hi Westcrip,

Great rom again!

Until now I just have one issue. I tried to flash Trebuchet launcher and made it default. However, when scrolling in the home screen, it caused FC which is never seen before. Thus, remove Trebuchet and use Nova (personally I don't like this launcher but now I have no choice...).

The rest perform well...I'll report problems afterwards if found.

Thanks Westcrip:D

EDIT: I deleted Trebuchet app and extract same app from zip file. Then copy this to system/apps using root explorer, and it did...

Thus, problem is fixed, and use Trebuchet back:-)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] browngeek:
Apex Launcher?

Hi Westcrip

On the off chance, would it be possible to add Apex Launcher in as default? I know you have Nova launcher, and its pretty damn good, however I've been trying out Apex recently and there is quite a lot of customisation on offer with this launcher.

Have to say though it can be a tiny bit buggy at times though (version 0.6 was great, version 0.7 does have a bunch more options but a bit more buggy).

Can obviously install it manually, so no probs if its something you're not considering, but thought I would ask anyway.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] exe69:
Hi westcrip 9.5 fantastic. Smooth.blacked out SMS app nova launcher as default. Amazing thank you so much. I wouldn't change a thing btw Swype is awesome as system app. Just do your thing I donated not to long ago
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rnksarda:
i was shocked to see how good this rom is ! BUT..

but i found that every now and then it crashes and i have to pull out the battery and then start my phone which sounds SCARY .

1.Trebuchtet crashes now and then.

2.Graphics on ICS should be a little more sharp ( compared to CM9)

3.i kept my flash on for 10 seconds and the phone crashed !

4.sometimes mobile data doesnt work for apps like whatsapp etc (strange thing is , it works for browsing as such)

great scope for improvement . definately better than the rest , but issues have to solved.

Feedback on v9.5:

Positive:

- Smoother than v9.3/9.4

Negative:

- Faster battery drain (while using 3G/WiFi)

- Some theme bugs causing black text over dark gray menus
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
Maybe if you try unmounting the sd and then put it back again...also with LP6 should be work

Recommendation for this ROM developer : It's to be a great idea add AOSP style in resurrection 9.6 when I call or receive a call? like the nightly version of CM9 for GS2 .

spotted some bugs 9.5

Hi

Just upgraded to 9.5 as per instructions in OP. So far so good, have noticed a few small bugs:

- Home screen wallpaper selection, select wallpaper from, Wallpaper gallery, set wallpaper: freezes, screen goes blank and then "Unfortunately TwWallpaperChooser has stopped."

- Getting same error for changing lockscreen wallpaper as there is only one gallery option for this.

- Settings, Sound, Music Effects get the following error: "Unfortunately, the process com.android.settings has stopped.

Got a very strange wifi problem on 9.5. My router's DHCP should be issuing 192.168.7.* addresses to devices attached to the network. However, on 9.5 when I connect to wifi, my phone gets an address of 192.168.0.1. I've reinstalled a number of times, including doing a full wipe first, and same problem. If I restore my nandroid backup of 9.4, the phone gets a 192.168.7.* address on wifi and all is good.

Anyone have this? Any suggestion for a fix.

LP6 or LPH, try whichever works for you.

To backup your SMS, open go sms:

-->options

-->SMS B&R

-->under "Backup SMS", backup what you need

To restore:

-->same steps as above, but instead go to "restore SMS"

-->if nothing comes up, select "advanced" and choose the file to restore (if a backup has been made)

You can also automate the backup to open once every day so you don't lose any of you precious SMS ;) That can be found under "Backup SMS" and the little cogwheel icon that will have all the automation options for it :)

Best of luck!

You can get rid of the keyboard select notification if you remove keyboards from system/apps, just be sure to leave one input method! You can then add more keyboards through market without getting the notification. It's an ics thing not rom specific.
