[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsychoArse:
I recently got a S2 gt-i9100 which was O2 uk branded.

I debranded it with I9100XXKL1_I9100OXAKL1 which went smoothly.

Ever since then this seems to be the only firmware the phone will accept.

I9100XXLPQ (Official Final Build) just hangs at the boot screen, I9100XWKJ1_I9100O2UKJ1 (the original o2 firmware) loops. and other firmwares do the same.

Is there a way around this, is it something I've done wrong.

Please, any help would be appreciated as I'm pulling my hair out with this thing.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanivier:
Try do this with the official final build but i ain't sure if it is going to work out ..but its worth trying put ua phone into recovery mode & do a clean wipe / factory reset & wipe cache

Then reboot

This is how to put you Galaxy S II into Recovery Mode:

1. Turn off your Galaxy S II phone.

2. Now hold the Volume Up + Home + Power buttons of your Galaxy S2 smartphone until the Samsung logo comes up.

3. When you see the Samsung logo; quickly release the buttons for half a second and then hold them again.

Now your Galaxy S II will boot into its Recovery mode.

Use the volume keys to navigate and the home button to make your selection.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsychoArse:
Just done that but Whilst I was there I noticed my csc code was KOR, so I have changed it to CPW. I'll see if that makes a difference.

Edit...

Still not installing ICS

Is there an .apk file or is it even possible to have the full barnes and noble shop on a rooted tablet running cm9?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
There's the NOOK for Android app in the Android Market. Not sure if that's what you're looking for though.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] PJLLB:
The Nook android app lets you buy books, and some magazines that are compatible with the app reader
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jmeyerhead:
yeah, I was hoping there was a way to get the full store. I had some apps that I purchased that I was hoping I'd be able to transfer over. No biggie though.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:
You could try finding the .apk from the B&N image and installing it. I'd be surprised if it worked, though. I'd expect it checks for and/or relies on certain changes B&N made to Android. It would be interesting to hear your results.

Beats audio and Dolby Mobile for X8

Hello all developers and XDA member, and yes this is what the title says.

Its Dolby Mobile and Beats audio in one package that the member vanillaLVL has ported to our X8s, and Ive got the permissions to publish it here on XDA.

What does the modules do?

The modules will increase the sound quality and make your sound more clear.

I already have Beats Audio

If you alread have Beats Audio you can install this too, it just overwrites the Beats Audio files that you have installed.

How to install:

Just install the update-audiomodules_signed.zip from the description to make it work.

Then open the Dolby Mobile app and accept Superuser permissions.

Done, now it should work perfectly

Credits:

The credits for the original mod goes to CKKnot.

Quinny898 for Therese Dolby Mobile app.

All credits for the port goes to vanillaLVL and all thanks goes to him.

And thanks to me for fixing a valid update.zip file:D
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Medo2:
Thanx will try!
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] wielku:
is it really working becuse I can't hear diffrence and also if I task kills [in go launcher] it is disabled? becuse when I go to app it says "permisson..." ALSO how to install without beats audio becuse beats audio is ruining music on max volume really badly

@down

I also have same feeling I just can't hear diffrence and everyone is saying that dolby have AMAZING sound but I just can't hear it

I should try SRS maybe there I will hear something

update.

SRS from CKKnot is same but Paul said that he will work with him[with CKKnot] so it should be fully working ;]
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Ƶero:
i tired it out but not sure if it works can't hear any difference by activating dolby.

Don't know what i should say about it, everything still works :P

edit: yea on max volume its really bad !
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Deleted member 3493119:
It works on my X8, and the sound i much better
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] vanillaLVL:
Try to smooth out the sound with dsp manager ;) set bass down in EQ.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] CKKnot:
lols.... i would not be a surprised someone make almost the same things @@

but he/she fixed the permission lols.... and no beats ~.~

P.S. The CRC32 checksum is all the same for the file in my post lols! :eek:

well i have gdx v023 and alfs8 too, but for me the audio quality is very low and disturbed, it was much better before. how to unistall these modules???
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] CKKnot:
if you have any app at /system/app, backup them

then do those following

1. install ur rom again without full-wipe

2. install the rom fix etc....

3. reboot

4. restore back those system app that you backup-ed

This is unfinished version of mod, try to wait and monitor this thread instead.

Look guys,

How are you activating this? If you're using my app (which is admittedly crap, I've done much better than that) then it won't work. It'll be a placebo. Run it in a terminal and see

Also, how many of you run this on ICS? I'm considering updating my app's UI and giving you the option to use SRS

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] `leon:
Well, i am stuck at bootlooping after flashing CM7.1 onto my friend's device, we've tried many times flashing it with different ways, but it seems to get stuck everytime at the bootscreen, i know the initial boot can take up to something like half an hour but after 2,5 hours we gave up, downgraded to 2.3.4 again using odin, and tried again on a different way (different recovery)

this is how we flashed it:

-made sure we had 2.3.4

-wiped data and cache with CWM 4.0.0.idk (the odin package for this CWM was included in the thread)

-installed CM7, everything went smooth

-rebooted, and then it got stuck

I really want to get this to work for him, any help from you guys?

is it because i wiped after flashing O_o?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] coolsandie:
Well the process should be like this :

1. Wipe data - Wipe cache - Wipe Dalvik-cache - Wipe Battery stats

2. Flash ROM

3. Wipe data - Wipe cache - Wipe Dalvik-cache - Wipe Battery stats
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] `leon:
So twice?

He's not here right now with the device, but i want to gather enough info for tomorrow to retry
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] coolsandie:
Yeah, it is safe to wipe before and after flashing.

And you're sure you did wipe dalvik-cache right ?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] `leon:
errrrmm, i don't remember, i think i did tho, i will, as again, retry tomorrow with also wiping dalvik
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Sieglein777:
Well, as for me, when something went wrong, i flashed my device back to stock froyo first.

Then flash GB, Flash CWM, clear data and cache, flash the rom, clear data and cache again.

Reboot.

That's it
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] `leon:
K, he's not here, i will give it a try now, fingers crossed :x

i know though what went wrong before :)

Always explain what went wrong, if someone with the same issues is reading the thread they'll know what not to do then. ;)

[Motorola Triumph] OverByter:
I've seen numerous posts both here and on other sites that some people are under the mistaken notion that if they don't have phone insurance then their only option is to deal with the phone manufacturer for warranty issues. Fortunately this is not the case. All VM phones purchased at retail are covered by Virgin for 1 year. Doesn't matter if you got it at Amazon, BB, Target, wherever they will cover all warranty requests. I have personally had them ship batteries, battery covers and complete phones all at their cost by second day air. Don't even need a credit card for cross shipping, they include a return prepaid envelope for you to return the old phone within 30 days, no questions asked. In this respect VM's customer service is actually quite remarkable. Hope this helps, Clint

You really think you are all high and mighty now huh? I've taken a look at your posts before and after you made your kernel, and let me tell you something: there is a big difference in the attitude of the posts. It's like the fact that you have developed something gave you a sense of authority. There is no excuse for you to be disrespectful.

Are you bored to death? No one asked you to post here. No one asked for your opinion. If you are bored, leave. I am not a fan of themed roms, but your posts just sicken me.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
Its looks good, but a few advises to convey

1) Name the thread "[ROM] Spring Rom [GB 2.3.3 v20c]"- This would look more formal and attractive

2) Add more info about the mods & tweaks you implemented

3) Don't listen or care for anyone who criticizes :)

I guess you have used Zeam (One of my favourite Launchers)

and also i love the default GB settings icons :)

I couldn't say that i will try it, sorry because i'm more into graphical customisations. But would like to advice every stock GB lover to use this ROM :)

Nice to see a V20C based ROM but does not boot.I am using CWM recovery 5.0.2.0 and it shows" Amend scripting(update-script) is no longer supported.

Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.

It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the clockworkmod 3.0 recovery.

Please switch to edify scripting((updater-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages.

First of all a superb effort on this one Anil :)

Havent replied on xda since a long time...but somehow had that urge to test something new and so tried this one.... And yes rightfully said... amongst all the High Fi stuff of 2.3.7 and ICS, somehow the stability is being overlooked as nightlies have come into picture.... almost every other day we have the beta updates of tons of ROMs... most of those being just the customisations of the major ones... The actualy ones are just three... :p LOL the ICS port, CM7.2 nighlies and the Oxygen port.... So many versions and so less to try... :P

Maybe im being old school but i liked the development when the REAL devs published something...that too taking their own time...coming up with REAL updates and not just simple things like fixed headset icon etc.. Mik, Knzo, Franco, Andy....miss their work dearly....and at the same time i do appreciate the efforts of the new frotiers like Popdog and the other guys developing on P500...!!!

To sum it up id say, Good work done to provide just the nessesary customisations and at the same time keeping the ROM stock..... I am using it since a few hours now and everything seems to be working well.. :) No bugs or performance lags...would report aout the battery in maybe a day or so.. :)

P.s.: Modification, be it of a line or an entire re-write of a code is still a modification. So unless he's asking u for paying his internet bills, stop criticizing each and everything around u.. He didnt steal ur code or modification did he..?? :) Its sometimes good to just avoid trolling where u are not needed ;)

I just got my T-Mobile Galaxy S II replaced today and when i turned it on for the first time, i noticed that it had no lockscreen, and no power button options. Instead, when u click the power button, it just shuts off the phone without warning. I am unrooted, nor have i ever been rooted on this phone. However i did take the SD card from my old rooted phone and put it in this one.. So maybe the rooted files have something to do with it. Im still not sure. If anyone has an answer it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

i have seen this happen on an SII when the efs folder gets deleted from the root directory.

the phone you got as a replacement must have been used before and the original owner had removed this folder.

it contains "as far as i've read" very important files that the phone needs and for some reason are not replaced even after a factory reset.

get another one if you can

What's to expect with LPQ? Any firsthand experiences so far?

ics standby time is normal and most likely same like gb rom in term of battery life.

but usage time ,ics seems to eat more juice ..

but i believe after several cycle of full charge + calibrate , it'll be normal too. just like gb
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Airbag888:
I installed it and I'm about to start my day.. Right now it's pretty nice. G+ update fixed the crashes but I'm unable to detect my Bluetooth earpiece and that's a deal breaker as I need it for when I get calls while driving.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cannabia:
I installed LPQ yesterday and I'm going back to GB 2.3.6 because of the battery life. With GB I could last almost 16 hours of moderate to heavy use. Today, with moderate use, it lasted me roughly 8 hours. This is a deal breaker for me because I'm on the move all day long.

It was a disappointment because it looks almost as GB but with lots of glitches on my favorite games and apps, battery drainage, and crashes. I guess I was expecting something more like Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwich. I wish there were no OS fragmentation on stock Android. Something more like iOS. My iPod Touch from two years ago looks exactly the same as my mother's brand new iPhone 4s.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Airbag888:
I have to agree, battery life seems abysmal compared to KK5 2.3.6 or even LA4 (which to me was worse than KK5)

It's good if you got no sync or data but then that's not the point.

ICS is really pretty and all but if I get half a day out of my phone it doesn't matter.

That's from 4 days worth of experience
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
There are too many variables to say objectively. Like comparing roms & kernels, whether they be GB or ICS. Any comparison will be purely subjective.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Airbag888:
I would agree however I have the exact same apps installed as before with the same setup. Only difference is I'm using facelock and I'm playing a little more with the phone because ICS is new but barely. So I'm hoping they get out an update soon that smoothes out the battery life
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pissyhun:
hi

i think the difference in terms of battery life between gb and ics is custom kernel. kernels like speedmod or phenomenal 4.0 extreme help alot. since ics has no such kernels :(((

i installed ics and i'm pleased that is stable. if u want battery life than my advice - STICK WITH GB:)
