[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
For noobs.

AOSP lovers and TW haters, there is a ← button in your keyboard.

I already mentioned about previously leaked XXKPA before, so no point mentioning those points again, instead read it,

• Better than KPA, more bugs are fixed. Still a Beta, of course. Progress is good.

• Phone calls were great. In call earpiece volume was great, as well as speaker, NR was there to be manually turn on/off.

• Now maybe I am wrong but I thing the Vibration intensity for call alerts was fainter than previous release, but if you check it under settings then it was very strong. Weird. Please give feedback on this.

• Same incoming call UI, call answer/reject buttons doesn't animate.

• Phone signal, 3G/H+, WiFi, BT everything worked fine.

• There was NO problem while switching networks to different mode, GSM, Auto etc. This ain't a pros.

• FM radio does work, worked before as well.

• 480x800 walls works well, LWP is definitely smoother than before, can't say if it's same smooth as GB!

• Lock screen ICS animation is still weird.

• Market worked on first try, downloading is working too. No problem here.

• Face unlock does work. OMG, what a time wasting gimmick is this thing.

• Swype is present. But I don't know if it's only me but the default Samsung KB was in QWERTZ format instead of QWERTY.

• GPS lock is fine.

• Same email app (which is poor imo, horrible background choice and you can't change it), damn. GMail app is same as well, no Multi touch support. Now I don't like it.

• 1080P videos (I tried with FLC) were horrible to watch, lagged all the way. I am sure they haven't done anything with it since last release.

• Camera in full res and VR at 1080p works fine usually.

• Same Missed call and SMS notification icon in LS.

• Touch keys does glow up this time.

• Call log entries does show a compact mode if you tap on a particular number. This wasn't present on KPA. A big relief for me.

• Haptic feedback works.

• Now the browser, all the options are there as before, with scrolling has gone much faster and smoother now, you can now scroll a long page with one or two slides now. It should be a big plus point for me and the users who uses Stock browser all time.

I think Sammy doesn't know that there is an 'Exit' word in dictionary :p

• Development option is present, very normal.

• Connection with PC worked at first go.

• The elastic scrolling all over the UI is a pleasing thing to play with, Hardware acceleration is at effect, a great job done by Samsung, already, still more than two months to go to keep their word.

• Battery life seems good. Lost only 3% in an overnight duration of 9 hours. GPS was on all time. However Standby time isn't a thing to consider battery backup IMO.

• There was a feature in the stock dialer, don't know what's it called actually, with which you just need to press the number keys and it would search for the contacts going by that digits you've entered, but that feature is missing. And it's a PITA for me who has to use the dialer all time to call him or her.

For exmaple: If you need to dial John, then just pressing 5646 in dialer would show that contact, as 5646 contains the word J, O, H & N. But that feature is lacking here and should be included back in Final release.

••• My Conclusion:

I am keeping it for a while and this definitely is a DAILY USE ROM.

Nuff said.

I'll add some more points and a short video with LP2 later. In the mean time screenshots added.

PS- A video is coming later, already uploaded but deleted from YouTube due to long length !

Regards.

PS- Please come and share your feedbacks with this please, I like to be a noob and definitely missed points.

TIA.
