Thanks for the tip. The touchscreen was driving my completely mental.. actually had a kernel panic in the middle of the night (what the phone was doing I have no idea). After flashing to LP6, I'd say I'll keep it on as a daily rom now. First batt. discharge was pretty awful. Something like 8 - 10 hours life with well, heavier usage. Now I'm rolling 12 hours and am at 85%
[Galaxy S II General] sun-drop:
is chrome crashing for any one else on LPB ?
[Galaxy S II General] effy_t:
Yes, same here... can't seem to get it to work for more than a minute.
[Galaxy S II General] King Shady:
Same here
[Galaxy S II General] sliderocket22:
So the LP6 kernel fixes the battery life? Mine would discharge in about 5 hours, and that's with ZERO usage. Literally it would sit with my 2nd line's sim in it and just die. And I have an Anker (1900Mah) battery in there.

I'm gonna flash LP6 when I get home, I love ICS, but miss TW extras.
[Galaxy S II General] brar.arsh:
Hi I have issue with this LPB.

Everything was working fine in ICS leaked FW till last night.

But .. Suddenly phones light lit up while charging, i thought it has fully charged. But it was just 67%.

Then this happened few times.

After that i unplugged the phone and started doing something on it. Suddenly Tap to Talk opened automatically and closed.

It happend many times. I rebooted, but it kept on happening.

I switched the phone off, but it turned on itself after some time.

I plugged in the charger, but it dint charge.

I tried USB, same result but a promp, charging pause due to over voltage.

I took out the battery for whole night an d put it on in morning.

Same tap to talk and not charging.

Then flashed back to original stock 2.3.6 and now it seems to be good.

Anyone having same issues.

For ur info i flashed ICS on Friday, and till last night there were no issues and i dint installed anything new.

Waiting for good response..
[Galaxy S II General] sliderocket22:
Did you try wiping the phone after flashing it to LPB? Or maybe trying the LP6 kernel, some people have mentioned that LPB's kernel has issues. I am having wild battery drain issues, so I'm flashing that in hopes that it fixes the problem.

I would try both of those before giving up, many people have said this is the most stable ICS rom yet.
[Galaxy S II General] brar.arsh:
You Already have galaxy Nexus.. :P **Jealous**

Ok i will also try LP6 kernel.

One more issue if u could help, i have stock GB version for India, ie 2.3.6 but Kies doesnt show any FW Info. Its showing blank.
[Galaxy S II General] slimshaky:
Hey guys, i rooted this ROM and restored all apps through Titanium back up. Not all apps are showing in "My Apps" in the Market. Any solution? Thanks! :)
[Galaxy S II General] sikcool:
try : Setting --> Apps --> Market --> Clear Data

If still not shown restart your phone
[Galaxy S II General] slimshaky:
Woohoo! Worked! Thanks mate! :)
[Galaxy S II General] sikcool:
In my case, it's better than Stock GB even with set cpu setting on GB (I don;t use cpu setting on ICS, but still better). :)
[Galaxy S II General] slimshaky:
Yeah, its impressive! Also noticed the battery icon turns red when the battery is really low.
[Galaxy S II General] mesaka:
Bug - hitting links (in my case from gmail app and is a google alert) crashes browser.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Thanks fyi.

Can anyone else confirm the same?
[Galaxy S II General] crlsndrsjmnz:
chrome is working fine here...it crashed when I first opened it but I guess it was syncing or something, now it's working fine...
[Galaxy S II General] mikeyb123:
they is a few bugs but overall XXLPB is great
[Galaxy S II General] shaneggg:
Fairly smooth rom altogether.

I have noticed that contacts don't come up in sms unless they have the international prefix in there numbers.

The hotmail app also kept crashing and freezing the system, so I had to delete it.
[Galaxy S II General] prinzhernan:
Thanks for the tip this solved my touchscreen issues. I didn't bother changing my modem though. Do I really need to?
[Galaxy S II General] sliderocket22:
If you've used Odin to flash firmware before, it's probably a CSC issue. For me once Kies didn't show info until I flashed the exact firmware for my device (XEO) AND changed the CSC back to XEO (which requires a wipe). You may wanna try that.

Or uninstall and reinstall Kies
[Galaxy S II General] FatPoe:
I had one good run with it but after I started to use it heavily to test it started to discharge quickly again.

That and in the middle of the night 2 nights in a row I wake up and the phone had kernel panicked. Upon boot, I have 0 battery after so I guess I will have to roll back to avoid the KP issue and the flaky battery life. I really had hope that it fixed it after the upgrade and full charge, but it seems to be all over the place for me right now. Maybe you'll have better luck that I did. Back to XXKI3 for me I guess. I got 35+ hours on that build.
[Galaxy S II General] hermi327:
Its a good Modem !!
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
you mean opening a link from gmail with a stock browser? then it works good for me
[Galaxy S II General] sliderocket22:
Yeah, it doesn't seem to be helping me either. I guess it's back to GB for the S2, probably until Samsung releases the official build. I don't mind it at all, I love TW, but after using all the new feature of ICS, it's hard to go back!

I've been sticking with KI4, it was the latest official build from Kies for my S2 (XEO) that I've been able to update to. I might try one of the newer ones through Odin, but I've had excellent luck with that build.

I can't wait til they announce the S3
[Galaxy S II General] eltorio:
Hi ithehappy,

Thank you for your review, but like for xxlp6 rSAP (remote sim access profile) is still not working :mad:.

[Galaxy S II General] raptor22:
Solved the deep sleep issue by flashing XXLP6 kernel, but now I have a new problem. The phone does not read chinese characters it shows just blank. Can anybody help? I'm on SuperLite ROM so I'm not sure what Legend accidentally broke.
[Galaxy S II General] superdunkaroos:
Anyone else having trouble with whatsapp not working on data connection?
[Galaxy S II General] markdj57:
Deleting sim card messages isn't working for me. Normal SMS messages are fine but I receive operator messages to the sim card.

Anyone else notice this?
[Galaxy S II General] br46:
Hello

I tried XXPLB roms like andys 5.1 and remix from 8.5 to 9.0

and critelo ICS.

if the cf root is PL6, radio FM run and Titanium BU can't restore apps on SD

if the cf root is PLB, radio FM doesn't run but Titanium run well

if the two apps are wished, it's interesting to work with CF root PL6

with my backup pro for restoring the apps which are on phone and after we can use titanium BU for apps on SD (included aps not restored by T BU)

now, i don't know kernels able to work with PLB like siyah

so CPU settings and voltage control are not so intersting at this moment

unable to restore my contacts , coming from cristelo V38 (with phone explorer or VCO organizer or synchro with outlook)

So I return to C38 with siyah .6.12

[Galaxy S II General] nickbarbs:
I really like the spirit of the users here on XDA, it makes everything they do possible, but guys this is beta from samsung... there is a limit to what XDA devs can do without source code.... If you're looking for a stable build, daily driver, stick to GB until samsung releases at least their first official ICS update :)
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Frankly speaking I didn't find any difference between this ROM and KL1, they both look same to me. I don't think any Sammy/non AOSP build has any problem with camera.
[Galaxy S II General] Manoj143:
Hi dear...I am suffering from fixing my proxy server for my office wifi...is it a known issue with this new release...any suggestion is highly appreciated....

Locks up frequently. I have given Chrome beta 2 attempts, but I can't use it because of the constant freezing up of the phone:-(

How do i take a screen capture. Normal method not working.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Volume Down+Power.
[Galaxy S II General] daz_2000:
You trying to be funny?
[Galaxy S II General] FatPoe:
I never had any issues when I was using the rom. Registration on whatsapp and group chat/media worked flawless
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Hold the same key combo for 1+ seconds it will work.
[Galaxy S II General] fosics:
I have some issues with Whatsapp on data. I sometimes receive a msg few hours after being posted, or even the day after, even if my 3G service works fine.
[Galaxy S II General] Doopliss:
Is it possible to add additional photos to the face unlock to help with recognition in different light conditions/bearded states (like you can in stock ICS)? I searched and didn't see it mentioned at all.
[Galaxy S II General] chrisjcks:
So,official ics is just a few weeks away?

So, does this mean the latest ICS leak is most likely the version that will be released?

This has always been the case in the past.
[Galaxy S II General] ronj1986:
I hope not....I want another leak this week. Plus, there are a few things still unaddressed or incomplete(no auto detection of APN from SIM card)
[Galaxy S II General] ballonspotten:
XXLKB

its great kernel and modem
[Galaxy S II General] timberwolf60:
It can auto detect Telecom network APN provided you install the CSC for your teleco, I had tried it before, I was in Singapore Star Hub provider. So I chosen CSC_I9100OLCKL2.tar.md5 and STH CSC code for StarHub and it worked for me once it booted up and I have the 3G connection.
[Galaxy S II General] eezdva:
I like this version a lot. For me it's bug free.

BUT have no idea why you can't have sound and vibration both.

Or did I miss something.
[Galaxy S II General] mrjay:
+1 for this.
[Galaxy S II General] eezdva:
Ok got the work around. Sorry guys.

Yeah download soundmanager. And in settings set the always vibrate.
[Galaxy S II General] hanhav:
Same works with audio manager too.
[Galaxy S II General] android167:
i have an android os bug on my phone, does anyone else has this problem¿ my battery is dead after 6h of use.
[Galaxy S II General] gsanchez:
Probably must be your deep sleep not working. I sugest you let your battery down to 10%, power off your phone, remove your battery, await a little - 1 minute must be fine - , reinsert battery, power on. your battery now must be very slow - 1 or 2%. Recharge it and now deep sleep must be working for you.

I did this procedure and now my battery life is very good, sometimes 30 hours in heavy usage.
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
yes you are right, android os bug is there.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
..as it does in all Android ROM's.

It does become so frustrating sometimes, especially when you sleep at night but your phone is not.
[Galaxy S II General] android167:
I don't have this on my Sensation with ICS 4.0.3.. My battery is better on Senny than SGSII, and only reason i got my GSII is because it has better battery life...
[Galaxy S II General] FatPoe:
Same with wifi?
[Galaxy S II General] android167:
Still have Android OS bug even after calibrating my battery..
[Galaxy S II General] firestorm76:
The so called Android OS bug will not be fixed by battery calibration (whatever you did to calibrate the battery). In the first place, there is no need to do battery calibration for SGS 2. It's done automatically.

As for the Android OS bug, it might not be a bug but a feature in ICS 4.0.3. The way the Android OS battery consumption being calculated had been changed in ICS. Those unaccounted wakelocks in GB are included in ICS as part of Android OS. They were not included anywhere in GB. Hence, you see "higher" usage by Android OS. This is the explanation on the changes done to the battery usage, wrt Android OS.

This is what explained by Google Android engineer.

However, the same Google Android engineer mentioned that she did introduce a bug in the calculations which is resolved in ICS 4.0.4.

In my opinion, Samsung ICS ROM for SGS 2 so far, does consume more battery than the GB ROMs. This is understandable since ICS ROMs are still in beta stage. When the final ICS ROM for SGS 2 is released, we might have more or less the same battery consumption compared to GB ROMs but with a lot higher Android OS stat in the battery usage (because this is closer to the actual state of the battery usage by the phone ie. GB Android OS battery usage shown are incorrect). It is also possible that ICS ROM for SGS2 will always have higher battery consumption compared to GB ROM.
[Galaxy S II General] keijames:
I have installed XXLPB rom a week now. It does improve a lot compare with XXLP8.

But the network wifi / 3G apps performance unstable. It work as 1st started, but randomly halt. I believe due to network connection issues.
[Galaxy S II General] victorinoxs:
Can the new Samsung ICS browser do text reflow at any zoom level?
[Galaxy S II General] akbarhash:
The Samsung ICS browser in this version does not to text reflow at any level.
[Galaxy S II General] Flossn:
What about USB Host?
[Galaxy S II General] Muterror:
wow nice/ very interesting information.
[Galaxy S II General] daz_2000:
i cant get his damn screen capture to work, I did get it to work initially with vol down and power and now nothing! :mad:
[Galaxy S II General] FatPoe:
I'd hate to reference anything windows but reboot? I had tons of screen shots on mine since it took one every time I booted into cwm
[Galaxy S II General] dw9999:
Anyone else getting bad signal? Compared to GB the signal im getting is terrible sometimes text messages would come hours late.
[Galaxy S II General] Angelocruz:
Not for me...everything smooth on Omega v1.1 ICS :)
[Galaxy S II General] vinceyeung:
could you add move to SD card didnt work?

there are loads of people reporting this problem in this leak!
[Galaxy S II General] knightofdenmark:
TwLauncher

Hi guys, I accidently deleted TwLauncher from system/app, so if one of you guys could upload yours it would be a great help! Thx.
[Galaxy S II General] krazykat:
Cheers. Dont delete it again unless you have back up LOL.
[Galaxy S II General] knightofdenmark:

[Galaxy S II General] kersey:
Is anyone else having a problem with ADW EX scrolling...it's very jerky. Anyone found a solution to this?

Also landscape mode for typing is quite weird as there's no flashing cursor to show where the next text entry is at.

Besides my two comments all seems well and am impressed, if the battery is good this will be a keeper :thumbup:
[Galaxy S II General] Powereh:
That is great thanks. Sorry to hear the mode you like has disappeared :(
[Galaxy S II General] deezle:
Froze a few times, trebuchet didn't seem to work right, no real beneficial new features 'm going to miss, think I won't bother with ICS until I get a new phone.... Too happy with my existing set up!
[Galaxy S II General] ManMOuntain:
Scrolling in what area? For me, moving between screens, launching application drawer (vertical 4D), scrolling through large folders and so on is fine in ADW Ex.

No problems here typing text messages portrait or landscape in stock messaging app, though the default QWERTZ key layout is bizarre. Changing input to Swype though returns to QWERTY.
[Galaxy S II General] Leggenda:
Is it possible to delete the "update software" popup?
[Galaxy S II General] ManMOuntain:
I'm not currently rooted, I just went into settings / apps / all and disabled software update, removing the notification nag. For added measure, I then went into settings / about / software update and unchecked everything.
[Galaxy S II General] Ffbf:
I guess 3g isnt working in all locations. Im trying to set up APN but when i save it nothing happens, the APN list still empty. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S II General] ManMOuntain:
I'm on O2 in UK and my APN was blank as well. I just went into settings / more / mobile networks, tapped access point names, left button, reset to default, left button again, new apn, entered the correct carrier settings, left button, save. Back at apn screen, tapped the dial to activate the apn I just created and restarted phone and connected fine.
[Galaxy S II General] Leggenda:
Disable? How?
[Galaxy S II General] Flypwnz:
Flash LP6 kernel and see how smooth in comparison LPB.
[Galaxy S II General] ManMOuntain:
I had first tapped the update in notification bar, viewed both the privacy links (they turn blue), ticked I agreed then tapped later. Then in settings / apps / all, located software update, tapped it, tapped force stop, tapped disable. Are there one or two software updates in your listing?
[Galaxy S II General] aag321:
Was there ever a solution for users with lock and home button not working correctly?

The only ICS rom that has worked for me correctly is CM9.

Last few releases I've had the same issue.

ideas?

can you please add this in first page please.

"Vibration with ring not working while incoming call " other than that everything working champ
[Galaxy S II General] Leggenda:
Thanks a lot guys :)
[Galaxy S II General] ManMOuntain:
Some carriers still require two apn's, the main carrier apn and another for the carriers apn mms, with others one apn setting is sufficient. Double check your carrier doesn't require two.

Is there a way to auto organize the apps in the app drawer?

I was using AppZorter, but I don't see it working anymore.
[Galaxy S II General] drelite08:
Well both on gb roms and previous ics builds its all been 1. I copied them directly from LP6 apn settings yet mms just will not send on B.
[Galaxy S II General] Markoleti:
Can someine check is tetering work?
[Galaxy S II General] ManMOuntain:
The only real issue that I've come across is an issue with the Market. For certain purchases I've made, I was getting an error -101 when I attempted to reinstall them.

I've cleared the Market's data and noted some of my purchases are also now not even shown. However, if I access the Market via my PC's browser, they are displayed as purchased but when I click them, my SGS 2 is greyed out for being incompatible.

This is the first time I've ever encountered anything like this. Anyone else come across this or offer any suggestions?
[Galaxy S II General] drelite08:
Maybe those particular apps aren't compatible with 4.0 yet?
[Galaxy S II General] ManMOuntain:
It's a possibility I suppose but I've ran all the previous ICS leaked ROM's and this issue with purchases on the market hasn't happened before. I was wondering if it's in any way related to the source country for this leaked ROM, but surely what appears on the Market isn't filtered based on the country and I would have thought any purchase would be valid as it's tied to your Google account.
[Galaxy S II General] drelite08:
Seems a bit of a strange one this rom, personally stability wise I'd say LP6 is the best but I love what they've done with TW in this build. Please Samsung keep it like that!!!

thanks a lot bro for your review.
[Galaxy S II General] kersey:
It's the swiping between home screens that's slightly stuttering for me with ADW, everything else on it is smooth.

Have identified the issue with typing in landscape, it's a SwiftkeyX problem. I've changed to another keyboard and all is fine :D

Im having issues with installing to the sdcard - it doesnt work.

Titanium hangs when the install fails and even downloading from the market and installing fails.

Has anyone found a fix - this is a most serious issue.
[Galaxy S II General] sxi200:
I was hoping this would be sorted as well. No lockscreen or home button means no go for me. No idea why it only happens to a few people.

I have tried a few fixes, including the efs hex editor trick but nothing has worked before. Might wait this one out. Hopefully it's fixed in the official release.

anybody else having trouble installing apps?

i first tried installing via titanium backup and out of 150, 6 don't work and i've figured out that they were the apps that were moved to the sd card.

I tried installing with the apk manually but that doesn't work either. I just get "Application not installed"

It means you have downloaded 4 different custom roms with ODIN, I had over 20 till I reset it :D

You can reset it with a USB jig ($2 from ebay) for warranty purposes.
