I'm running it on CM7 and I really like it I once tried it on stock with similar results as you but spb has been updated since for ''tablet'' support so make sure you are using the latest version.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] damianarnold:
It really is excellent on CM7 but only when you activate the Tablet mode, it's super smooth and is functional when you set it up how you want it.

On stock you will suffer the same problems as many other launchers in that you will need to push it to system/app for it to work properly.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] Rylin210:
Pardon me for sounding like a noob, but if i move SPB Shell to system/app

will i still be able to use the Kindle Carousel Launcher? or would it overtake?
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] damianarnold:
Yes. If you have Titanium then the whole process is easier. Long click on app and Convert to System App.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] Rylin210:
thanks but didn't worked, SPB Shell wouldnt even open

7 launcher worked when i made it a system app though, thanks again

hopefully SPB Shell will work sometime soon
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rent0n:
Hi all,

Today, out of the blue, I see a message in the status bar saying "Blank SD card" and "SD card blank or has unsupported file system".

I don't care too much about the data on it (I have backups), but I tried to format it (within Android) a few times and remount it and it still gives me that message.

I also tried to format it in CWM but I get an error message saying that the SD card can't be mounted.

So I'm a bit stuck here... what can I do?

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] em_jrdn:
SD card

rent0n,

I had the same problem about 3 months back. when I went back to the store, they swapped my card. When I asked about all my info, the told me it couldn't be recovered. Sorry for your loss.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] VRD1:
I recently found in my mind, when we search market for some app like mozilla it says incompatible with your device.First thing comes in my mind after seen dat how this market knows that this app is incompatible. When i was doing something waste of time with my phone i looked out build props.then i found out ro.ril prop there is written galaxy ace i changed it to nexus.

I saw that market is not showing incompatible apps

wonder
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Sgace:
And where able too download and use the app where it first said ' incompatible' ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] VRD1:
google search market on my 'PC' first it say incompatible after editing ro.ril prop it is not showing anything
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Sgace:
Ooh thats funny. Gonna give it a try i think
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] pyronia:
After edit ro.ril in build.prop...can u download the app then used it on your phone? The question is not market know what phone u use but can u use the app that market says not for your device before? If can its good, if not...its just a wasting time to edit the build.prop tho :p

I develop apps for Android Market, and I know how it works. If you run cyanogenmod it is based on a softbank framework. The Android market detects this and only allows you to install certain apps. Developers also can choose what phones and what countries can get it.

It is also determined by DPI as well.

Supposedly Samsung did not like how the US carriers had to change the phone so many ways for it to work.

and that blog did not even point out their source

so, at this point seems like just 1 person own speculation

yet more rubbish

just like all the fake SGS3 specs that has been "leaked" (fakes) to date.

IMO i don't think the SGS3 is any where near ready for production yet, probably it's still in re-design & testing phase

[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
You root with Zergush then you root with CF root then you flash firmware and wipe CF root then CF root again

Why not flash KK2 then cwm and root .

Or even just flash CWM root and do a nandroid backup then flash KK2 .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] b_sal:
Well, i just reproduced step by step what i did to customize my phone from the moment i opened the box. I was really afraid of changing the internal ROM counter, and was afraid as well of using odin, so i opted to use zergrush and buy mobile odin, and i still think that is the easiest and most secure way for the complete noob to customize his phone.

You are part right, because the KK2 firmware will not change the rom counter, but you must use odin to flash it. Mobile odin is easier, but if the reader is okay with using odin, in fact he will pass over many steps of the guide.

And when you say "You root with Zergush then you root with CF root", that´s not true. In fact, i recommend using zergrush and ONLY if it doesnt work you should use CF-Root instead.
[Galaxy S II General] Deleted member 4038153:
I'll try and give you the benefit of the doubt then.

Damn, I shouldn't have bothered.

Your post is written in such a way that it might fool an idiot into thinking you know what you're talking about, but it's pretty clear you don't. Let's see some of the things I took issue with in your post.

There's no such thing as "average use".

You recommend an old ROM.

Your "tutorial" involves several unnecessary, repeated steps (root, then flash a rooted kernel, then flash another rooted kernel ad infinitum?)

Your customisations are nothing more than undervolting which is specific to your device and some rather vague freeze stuff you don't want statement.

You finish the post by saying you can flash a different, AOSP based ROM, after all of the spam before it, negating everything.

Overall, good job.
[Galaxy S II General] Suarez7:
His kinda defying the point of his root method. :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] Frostfree:
Ignoring the repetitions, the post's still very useful. I'm on a 2.3.4 ROM as well and the OP's right about the minimal delta improvements of gingerbread updates.
[Galaxy S II General] b_sal:
Okay, i think you are not getting the objectives of the post:

1) it reproduces exactly what a noob (me) did to unlock his phone.

2) I never said i know every single way of rooting the phone, and didn´t made this post to prove anything.

3) it´s not exactly meant for the senior members, or at least, the senior members should filter from the post only the info they judge is valid for them.

4) it´s very clear in the post that i´m prioritizing stability and battery life over firmware versions. So i guess you bashed before reading the part i say that.

5) i really did that in the good intention of helping newbies to find their way, reading the links i "spammed" on the guide. But I may be hurting more than helping, who knows? If so, sorry, i´ll get back to reading, i don´t really mind writing guides at all.
[Galaxy S II General] Suarez7:
my friend by all means you have put all your information nicely organized and nicely put. you do have good intentions and please carry on doing what you are doing. but you need to re-evaluate what you have written because you might get people getting confused by what you are guiding them through. and plus they are already stickies regarding guides and the threads in development that helps people on how to root phones.

Give you one example you say to people the guide on how to zergrush exploit. and then you ask them do download a cf-root for something else. can not go through the whole thread. but you are asking people to re root twice with two different methods. hence why people above are pointing out to you...anyway good luck and hope you get the feedback you are looking for from this thread:)
[Galaxy S II General] b_sal:
I guess that´s a good feedback on the post. I know there is a lot of guides on xda, and that´s a lot of information. Because of that, i had to read lots of tutorials, filter many of them saying mostly the same things, and assembling all the parts together in the end. So i thought of writing something that would unify all that, to make easier to the beginner and to avoid people having to read all the guides, like i had to do. I don´t feel the urge to do something perfect on my first post, but i fully acknowledge the need to edit the post and add more information about discarding some steps and adding alternative ways to get to the result. But in the end, i´m sure someone who follows it will as it is now won´t have any problems and will get the battery life i´m telling.
[Galaxy S II General] jonny68:
Download Ninphetamine kernel:eek::D

your joking right, no doubt it was a good kernel at the time but it's old hat now technology advances everyday and there are far better kernels on here now that will offer much better battery life,etc,etc

I'm not knocking your post but most on here would know all of this already, noobs will just keep posting duplicate questions regardless of how many times they have already been answered previously.
[Galaxy S II General] b_sal:
I think the post can be improved, so i´m taking your suggestions as well:

1) Okay, i think that expression can be changed.

2) I haven´t found any evidence of KK5 and latter improving battery life, that´s why i recommend KK2.

3) Like i said before, I was worried about the rom counter issue, and didn´t know i was going to flash an official firmware. I guess that if you want to install a custom firmware without incrementing the counter you must do what i did. If that´s not true, please let me know and i will change that.

4) Many people are using this same voltages on the forums without issues, and i just told what settings i use. Many beginners have this curiosity about what settings "everybody" is using.

5) In the end everybody is free to do whatever they want. If they read all the links and felt confidence about doing anything else, then the guide´s job is done in the same way.
[Galaxy S II General] b_sal:
You may call me an heretic or whatever, but i really don´t see the point of, say, Siyah kernel launching a new version every couple days. I´m using Ninphetamine and it does everything my phone can do. A mobile phone is not (yet) the same thing as a desktop computer, so it doesnt need kernels updated that fast. I ask in all my noobiness : What the newer kernels can do that this kernel can´t?
[Galaxy S II General] Deleted member 4038153:
I think you're still missing the point a bit. The name of your thread is "want your GS2 as close as possible to stock with PHENOMENAL battery life? READ THIS!"

The thread doesn't really address anything relating to battery life (such as wakelocks, misbehaving applications, screen brightness, signal strength). Voltage modifications which work for you may not work for someone else and the battery savings are negligible. You also don't mention the risks involved.

Then, since you've pulled me up on me taking issue with you saying to flash CM7, I'll repeat. Your thread title is "want your GS2 as close as possible to stock with PHENOMENAL battery life? READ THIS!" CM7 is about as far from stock as you can get. Also, telling people to flash a custom kernel (Ninphetamine) and saying it's "as close as possible to stock" is pretty absurd.
[Galaxy S II General] nikzDHD:
One of the best kernels of all time. If it's not broken why fix it.

O/T I think we miss Harce. Post 5 was awesome most newb posts are post 5 material.

Look at VillainRom, see what base it is using, and why it's also a popular rom.
[Galaxy S II General] b_sal:
Since you´ve commented only about items 4 and 5, should i assume that you have nothing to say about items 1-3? I´m looking forward to read your opinion about that too.

You are damn right about item 4. For the sake of completeness i should warn about the risks of messing with voltages and the other topics you mentioned. You may not believe, but i really don´t see this thing as "my post" anymore. I guess we could improve on it and make it good , even if just for a person or two.

About item 5, i must disagree a little. Well, i say "as close as possible to stock" and not "stock". If i don´t change anything, so it´s stock, right? What you would define as "close to stock" then?

And the guide ended before the CM part - What I recommend is installing the KK2 firmware + ninphetamine + voltage settings, nothing else. I only left open the possibility of any customizations the reader wants to do, i´m not saying CM7 or jkay installation is a "must do".
[Galaxy S II General] Deleted member 4038153:
I can't really respond to 1). 2) I still disagree with, there's no reason to stick to an old version, especially one which is not supported by the latest version of the JKay mod (which you later recommend). Therefore, in my opinion it makes more sense to recommend XWKL1. 3). The process to get what you wanted was zergrush followed by flashing Ninphetamine (with mobile Odin/other app to avoid counter increase). None of the other kernel flashing was necessary.

Flashing any custom kernel, especially one which describes itself as "Now with 100% less Samsungyness" in the thread title is deviating a lot from stock. I would define "close to stock" in that regard as CF-Root.
[Galaxy S II General] jonny68:
I tend to agree with you which is why i don't bother with Siyah anymore i just stick to Speedmod which is pretty much proven as having the best battery life out of all the current kernels available.

Well Siyah at this stage of development probably has many more features, Speedmod offers the best battery life which is good for me;)
[Milestone XT720 General] kousik:
I have put the phone into bootloader. Used both, Volume up when booting, or even in Terminal emulator "reboot bootloader". So it reads:

Bootloader fastboot mode
80.89

Battery OK
Ok to program
Transfer mode:
USB

At this point if I fire up RSD Lite, it reads "Model: S Flash OMAP3430 IMEI: N/A Status: Connected". But doesn't show anything in device properties. If I choose a SBF and hit "Start" it prepares and fails with an error message "flashing failed".

If I connected to a linux box and tried sbf_flash instead, it complains "Reboot phone into bootloader!"

Any suggestion how can I flash a stock SBF back? I remember doing it successfully when I installed J.Y.Daddy's rom CM 7 in early december last year.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Hm. Someone else was having trouble with sbf_flash recently too... So I redownload to check. The latest sbf_flash doesn't seem to work for me, either.

This is how I've configured udev for android:

$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="22b8", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

The one that works for me (attached):

8418ec2de4d7f3cfa3751fbc2ae2a6e0 sbf_flash

The one I just downloaded that doesn't work:

db8afd24f7a0dc6d3d78556dec811694 sbf_flash.new

Edit: Wha... I tried again and it worked? I'm going to reboot my computer. I'll try a few times and see if maybe it's just not sporadic.
[Milestone XT720 General] mchlbenner:
1.make restall USB drivers.

2.restall RSd lite.

What sbf are trying to flash.
[Milestone XT720 General] kousik:
I've done (1) and (2) multiple times before I asked here, unfortunately no success. I tried multiple SBFs, mainly STR_U2_01.1E.0_SIGNED_UCASHLSTABB1B4DEMA039.0R_USASHLSTBRTINT_P029_A014_HWp3_1FF.sbf (Singapore) because this is the one I installed before updating to JYDaddy's CM7.

Somehow I have a feeling in bootloader mode the phone is not responding correctly. As both sbf_flash and RSD Lite fail to flash, they can't even communicate to the phone. And it wasn't the case 2 months ago. Maybe some update caused the problem. But again as I understood, bootloader is sacred, and if it were touched, it won't load any further.

If anything else rings a bell, I'm all ears.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
No, your bootloader is still 80.89, should be fine. If the bootloader rejects stuff, it tells you that.

Just some rambling ideas: Maybe try a different USB cable if you haven't already -- perhaps the bootloader detects USB because of the 5V power line, but some of the other lines are damaged or one of the contacts is dirty. Plug unplug on the computer side, too. Does SD card access/adb work?
[Milestone XT720 General] kousik:
Ok, changing USB cable is the last resort. I have to borrow one from a friend. It didn't strike me as SD card export works (copied a file), so does ADB (logcat). And they work from all ports of my laptop, whether running Windows (vista) or Linux (Mint 11). Still I may give it a try. If I damaged some pin required for bootloader only (and not data transfer), I'll be surprised. There can't be anything like that.
[Milestone XT720 General] pables123:
make sure ur in bootloader mode not in fastboot bootloader i had that problem before better to manual boot to bootloader
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Oh, good eye! I missed the "fastboot mode" detail in the first post. That's the fastboot bootloader for booting custom kernels.

Regular bootloader: hold volume up and camera while powering on.
[Milestone XT720 General] eejin2:
lol mioze i was in the regular bootloader, and sbf flash didnt work for me, so i decided to boot into windows via virtual machine to use rsdlite - was a great relief that it worked haha

If you don't feel stable enough on the ROM you have installed now, and you're still able to flash to another ROM, just flash back to something you feel comfortable on. A lot of the ICS builds are alphas and unstable.

Make sure you read does/does not work list for each rom and take a second to look at what other users are saying about it. And, of course, make sure it's intended for your specific device. =)

Sometimes it would but so dark it was nearly impossible to see it. I'm not sure if the screen is dead I haven't used it since November when I got my Galaxy S.
