LP4 is the latest version, LP7 is older.

v3.8 feels smoother than v3.7 to me but not by much. v3.7 is an excellent version also. If you feel great with v3.7 (no lag, scrolling feels ok, battery life is good) then I would suggest to hold on to it until v.3.9 comes along.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Eudemony:
Old version was dxlp7 new version is xwlp7 .. I know .. Its all confusing :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] althebyani:
I'm gonna follow the Samsung releases until we find a good base of European

Its gonna be easy for us to work on one base ;)

@althebyani

which is the correct CF zip in 3.8? I tried flashing CF-Root-SGS2_XW_O2U_LP3-v5.4-CWM5.zip after i flashed the siyah one but it didnt work.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] althebyani:
Hi mate

Download this file http://download.chainfire.eu/157/CF-Root/SGS2/CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_LPS-v5.4-CWM5.zip

Extract the zimage file inside it and using CWM app choose flash a kernel and choose the zimage file u extracted from that file

Note: I don't know what u r doing but V3.8 comes with CF root originally.

I think u flashed siyah and wanna go back

Thanks and good luck
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fkfs9:
yeap i flashed siyah and wish to go back again to try out CF root. thanks.

Hi,

Just reminding you for the flashable zip file.

Also, can you have a quick look at my queries in posting 2221 above, about the high battery consumption currently.

cheers

A small new problem I have noticed:

The little battery icon on top of the screen keeps disappearing after a few hours and comes back only after the phone is restarted.

Any solution?

cheers

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ashwaa:
Both r asian modems try both and see for me the ddlp8 worked like acharm should work fr u too the idea is to solve the call and internet problem

After installing the modem and asian csc ie fr india inu the battery life has also increase

BATTERY 99% after 4hrs minimal use

Some phone calls ; wifi , 2 g

ON

SIYAH 3.1 b3

Phone modem ddlp8

Csc ddlp7

I havent seen such kind of battery life wt any rom

I think siyah 3.1 b3 has dome toich issues but negliginle but if it gives a battery life like this i am ready to accept it

So i think if u use the modem and csc of ur region this rom rocks in battery life

Hi,

Just installed this rom and loving it so far. A couple of questions though.

1. Is the dpi 240 or has been changed? If been changed, how do I change it back to the 240 default?

2. How do I change the launcher to another one?

Apologies if this has been asked before, but going through 225 pages to check is quite a task.

Cheers.

No problems with this rom ie3.8
[Galaxy S II Android Development] althebyani:
no I'm working on new versions but the minute I find a good version then I will not change to another one.

Because, there are thousands of releases and I want to be stable on one version to be able to work on it and don't care about whether it will work on another base or not

Hi, I had downloaded the modem I9100DXLP7. In Odin, I believed i should select Phone instead of CSC to flash the modem into my phone right? Just want to be sure to avoid bricking my phone :confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ashwaa:
U

Yes select phone for modem

Also download csc annd flash it

Then type *#272*imie# and see which csc u r on

I was on pol means poland i changsd it to INU india

And walla lots of problems solved cause csc has country related carrrier apns so if u choose the rt csc ur ronge and internet probles get solved

WARNING

CHANGING CSC FORMATS UR PHONE TO FACTORY SETTINGS BACKUP BEFORE CHANGING CSC IE COUNTRY SPECIFIC APN
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mesenger77:
Hmm..this will be my first time flashing modem and csc, with the csc formatting the phone to factory setting, does that mean that I would need to flash 3.8 again and back to square 1?? :confused:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ashwaa:
not flashing csc but changing apn with the code i gave will reset to factory that means u only loose data not the rom if u hav flashed to 3.8 u will have 3.8 as it is now ur factory rom u will have to set it up again as u did it after flashing 3.8 the first time

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Eudemony:
Yeah I had fading music but you know .. royalty payments and stuff lol .. so wanted a sound of speed .. F1 car was what I came up with

You can customise it to whatever you want ..

Here's some tips

PowerOn.ogg (case sensitive) will play for 10 Seconds exactly

you can make your own start up sound by converting any sound file on your phone or pc by visiting http://media.io

* upload .. convert to ogg .. select quality

file will then be ready for download .. so download and Rename to "PowerOn.ogg" and replace existing file in system/etc

If you want no sound at all on start up .. delete the PowerOn.ogg file

My original startup sound

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Garoto1973:
If its 1% every 5 minutes with screen on it sounds normal to me. Thats around 8 hours screen time! I get around 5 hours screen time since GB. Thats 1% down every 3-4 min with screen on and wi fi or 3g on.

If its 1% every 5 minutes with screen off then something is wrong.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fulham:
Hi,

I had similar problem.

I solved it indirectly by typing my email id carefully and then double clicking on the typed text to highlight it.

I could then check if it is typed correctly.

For password, I just typed it carefully and it worked.

Once you cross this step, there should be no problem with further configuration/normal use of the email application.

cheers

I think you are right.

With the screen turned off all morning today and the phone in vibration mode for about 3 hours with no calls, the battery was down by only 2%.

Wifi was off during that time too.

How can we replace beat audio boot up animation to regular S2/Nexus?

Also, is it just me since 3.8 (I am now on 3.9), the App Drawer shows black screen with no icons, just the tabs randomly?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Eudemony:
Extract bootanimation.zip from 3.8 and replace the file in 3.9 instructions a few posts back
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xsillian:
Great work on the v3.9!! Gonna test the beats audio lib. Later on... hope that it will do some magic.

Anybody that has a good setup for the siyah kernel? Wanna try it but... battery is going down hard
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kimurastanley:
Had problem with Bluetooth heat set in listening music with v3.9. No problem when I was on v3.8. Not sure is it bcs of the beat audio. Revert back to 3.8 and problem solved
[Galaxy S II Android Development] masteriori:
Are you talking about bootanimation file found in system->bin?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Mr.Greg:
Bluetooth in most cases is caused by kernel issue. Just try different kernel. I found a very good and stabil kernel, Abyss. It's not posted in xda forums, but work like a charm. Give a try.

---------- Post added at 10:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 AM ----------

If you want replace boot animations copy from previos rom from system/media, scroll down and you'll find a zip file boot animations. Copy and push it in same folder.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] padawan911:
I use Abyss Kernl to. It's a fantastic one. Very Battery friendly and smooth like a charm !

You can download it from here:

Just installed 3.9, so far so good.. gonna test the battery life on this kernel, i like the battery life on the kernel on 3.8..

Maybe you wanne provide a flasheble zip for the old startup sound with the new boot animation?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Eudemony:
Beats Boot Animation with original SGS2 Sound CWM zip

It's probably a good idea after flashing to go to advance > fix permissions as it is updating system files

Problems...

Hi,

1. The battery icon at the top of the screen disappears after a while and doesn't appear again until the phone is rebooted.

(Currently I am on v3.8)

2. I couldn't find the default android Music player in v3.8.

3. Android market (Player) constantly giving "error while processing purchase" message, despite having the wifi working.

Clear data and fix permission didn't help either.

Please help.

cheers
[Galaxy S II Android Development] padawan911:
I'm on v.3.8 but I flashe beatsaudio lib via cwm. It makes no magic, but in my opinion the sound has more bass and all sounds clearer. But maybe it's a placeboo effect. I will keep it.

Enhanced power menu for 3.8 and 3.9

https://www.box.com/shared/3a0557528f3fc91d1e9a

Breaks vertumus power menu graphics and installs Samsung default lock screen .. unfortunately I've never used baksmali and the file that controls the lock screen android.policy is from the original developer and has code that is needed to make the enhanced power menu work .. hopefully althebyani can work on it!

Make a nandroid backup before flashing if you want to go back

This mod adds recovery and download to the power menu when u push and hold the side power button
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Robb3rt:
My battery whas empty in about 4 hours..

I think i would like in the next update the kernel of 3.8..

Also my data network is not stable at all.. some times i have no internet.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Eudemony:
Its good to get feedback like this

You might want to try chainfires xwlp7 kernel

https://www.box.com/shared/790d395e6863a3b798b4

Use hc-ktool from market to flash .. put zimage in root of internal sdcard for app to flash
[Galaxy S II Android Development] padawan911:
How I said. Try this Kernel in version v.2.0. He runs very good, has no batterydrain and supports CWM-Manager-App and BLN.

Before flashing, make wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache and use the "ulitmate kernel cleaning script" (UKCS).

I've attached both.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] althebyani:
Regarding the extended power menu I will do it and include it in next update with a better arrangements

The other point is that I think battery life for V3.9 is awesome

I repeat for the 100 time. If u face a real battery drain then do the following

1- Go to recovery and wipe battery stats

2- If wiping the battery stats didn't fix the problem then back up all of ur stuff and do a factory reset to format ur sdcard

This should solve the issue

Thanks

weird.

I haven't tried absess to be honest but I appreciate CF Root kernels

(Only 5% drop in battery power with minimal use (phone on vibration only mode), no active applications, no media being played and the screen mostly off (other than while making only a few short calls) over last 10 hours).

However, I now have flashed the absyssICS kernel and keeping an eye on the battery life.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Eudemony:
Hey Garoto1973,

Beats Audio libs are meant to improve audio .. deeper bass etc. it is marginal though ..

re: wallpapers - Yeah I noticed yesterday that I didn't add them to the rom :( I made 2 versions to send to Thebyani .. must of been in the other version ..

Haven't played around with it much but ..

extract phone.apk from your download of v3.8 and replace it on 3.9 to have full screen caller .. the call record libs are there so you can use a 3rd party app to record calls e.g. "Call recorder v1.1.8"
