Flashed SyahKernel beta 7 but getting hangs when accessing SetCPU. Is anyone undervolting this and if so what are you using?
[Galaxy S II General] Chef_Tony:
sigh. this thread is really noob paradise.

yes, if you don't wipe, no data will be lost. if you do wipe, data will be lost. no mystery there.
[Galaxy S II General] Borisdmitri:
scrolling feels very good. as good as GB
[Galaxy S II General] danmullen:
I agree, scrolling seems much smoother.
[Galaxy S II General] Beefheart:
That's the theory, although I would suggest you don't do this when moving from GB to ICS as there are bound to be issues. LPQ or LP2 to LP3 should be fine.

Stock ROM or the Frankenstein ROM by Intratech?

Rooted or Unrooted?

I9100 or I9100T/G/M etc?
[Galaxy S II General] sagatr:
Hi guys. I had LPQ rom running for a week. Just flashed with o2 LP3 without wipe & eveything is running very smoothly. However I do not get o2 startup screen. Still have have samsung startup animation. No o2 apps either.

Also my CSC is displayed as Unknown.

What has caused this strange issue.
[Galaxy S II General] vietcn:
Um I think stock rom i just installed the I9100XWLP3 02 one that is on the first page and first rom there is on that page.

and just a normal I9100

[Galaxy S II General] member1308:
Does anyone has an idea how to use the stock launcher??????
[Galaxy S II General] Ex()rcizm:
Did you flash the Frankenstein Version by Intratech or the default from this threads first page? :)

If the CSC is missing, you might just need to get the CSC file manually and flash it over under the PHONE category in ODIN v1.85

My Telstra Branded SGSII did the same with an older 2.3.5/6 Firmware, no CSC and no bloated apps or startup screen.
[Galaxy S II General] Chef_Tony:
obviously your phone still works in general, so nothing is lost as of yet, why not make a titanium backup, flash the rom again and do a full wipe
[Galaxy S II General] Ex()rcizm:
Thanks for the prompt reply :)

I believe it could be due to the fact that KIES might not have released this Firmware yet, and so it is unsupported

I'd need backup on that though, not 100% positive, all I know is that Sammobile got there hands on it, and they usually get there hands on it before KIES :)

EDIT: Well BEFORE KIES puts it on there servers for download. :)
[Galaxy S II General] Chef_Tony:
now that you know, how to use odin, why would you want to go back to kies anyways?

just flash it with odin again once a newer rom is out. kies is horrible and unreliable. samsung service uses odin to flash.

EDIT: also, sometimes it really takes kies a lot of time to "get to know" your device with a new rom version. when i first bought the device with ke2, it also said "this version is not supported" or some nonsense like that, after i used it for a while, it finally got a hang of it and offered me an update, nearly bricked my phone and i have never touched kies since and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
[Galaxy S II General] dyallo:
Annoying as hell that the new bootloader is included in all your packages.

Otherwise, thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] Borisdmitri:
When you flash your device using odin, odin doesn't care about wich one you have. it will flash it even changing the product code.

If it is an official samsung firmware, you will be able to update anytime with kies, when a new firmware comes for your region (not the original one, but the one corresponding to the new official firmware you flashed, in this case, O2)

If you flash any unofficial firmware, you could flash an official one, maybe one from the original region of your phone (you can get it from Intratech post on the original development forum, or from sammobile.com).

In any case, you could sill flash using odin anytime. it's much better than kies.
[Galaxy S II General] Barely Running:
Wow that was easy. Moved from LPQ to LP3 with no issues (as of yet). Will run a number of apps to see how things turn out.
[Galaxy S II General] gavin15:
Sorry. It was just because last time I just installed the new OS without wiping data and all my apps and stuff deleted.
[Galaxy S II General] andreasS2:
Did you just download the touch recovery zip file from rommanager website and flashed it with stock recovery? I was wondering how I could get CWM with the stock rooted kernel.
[Galaxy S II General] xZeDgEx:
I'm loving LP3 so far. Best ICS ROM yet. running the unbranded Frankenstein one. So smooth and much more like GB when it comes to scrolling etc. :cool:
[Galaxy S II General] nomnompie:
I have just flashed this and I am just now noticing that there is further detail to the scrolling issue some have mentioned that I never thought of before..

The scrolling really acts up when plugged in via USB. Try for yourself. Go to the android market (google play), choose the apps category and then just swipe screens left and right. When plugged in, screens sometimes stick and do not actually swipe, and sometimes they swipe backwards. This is happening on a galaxy S2 with NO screen protector or case. When it is not plugged in, it seems to react much better. This was also happening when I put ICS on my daily driver GS2, which has a screen protector, but it does not happen on GB whether it is plugged in or not...
[Galaxy S II General] vassall89:
The scrolling in this LP3 is very smooth....much better than the other roms.....
[Galaxy S II General] nomnompie:
even when plugged in via usb for you? for me there is a clear difference. it is fine unplugged but when plugged in if you test like i explained on both phones i have the scrolling is a bit haywire.
[Galaxy S II General] Dimenxion:
this happened to me on LP7. but not that alarming. happened once or twice if not mistaken
[Galaxy S II General] ajiron11:
That's happened to me in several touch screen devices running all kinds of OSs, phones, tablets... I think it's related to quality of the electrical current, in my case I was using the devices connected to the power adapters. Have you tried other computer's USB ports? With the power adapter it's just normal, I just don't use touch control sensitive apps when charging, I just read and turn pages with my volume buttons.

[Galaxy S II General] SkoreK89:
I noticed that phone on ICS ROM is hotter than GB. While playing phone "burn my hands".
[Galaxy S II General] ZonyX:
Think he means the "bounce" type thing

Although if you change launcher believe they have elastic scrolling
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
i try to put it in a better way.

in normal scrolling when you scroll your page will keep on scrolling until you press the screen(like frictionless) whereas in elastic scrolling the scroll will stop automatically based on the speed of scrolling.

[Galaxy S II General] turborider:
can someone please confirm if this rom I9100XWLP3 can connect on Kies,i been trying all evening last night and today in the morning since 3am still no connection and i installed the rom 4 times,im on UK unbrand SG2 :(
[Galaxy S II General] ggravier:
Hi! It's not THE ROM that can. It's if the ROM's CSC country matches your phone's CSC country.

My phone Country is DBT. My ROM CSC is OXA (with MultiCSC country set to DBT to avoid wiping). This means Kies won't update.

When a proper DBT 4.0.3 ROM comes out, I will put that on the phone, and then it will be able to update via Kies.

Or I could change with MultiCSC my phone to OXA. But then it will wipe everything on it (as always when you change the CSC). I don't want to do that. So I mannually update to ROMS that have a MultiCSC that includes DBT, or roms with a pure DBT CSC.

Adapt to your phone's CSC. When you dial *#1234# on your phone, what CSC value do you get, today?
[Galaxy S II General] Mimov:

[Galaxy S II General] CarsnGadgets:
try looking in settings for "development", i think its in the "applications" section, turn off "usb debugging" (if its on), and try kies again, this may help.
[Galaxy S II General] @home:
I have tried a few ICS Roms now, running the O2 UK atm, & I don't know what it is but it just seam that bit more laggy when switching between home screen than any of the GB roms are.

Dunno what it is, has anyone else encountered this?
[Galaxy S II General] ZonyX:
alot of people have mention a laggy experience,

i recommend the Siyah beta kernel...it does seem to speed things up somehwat
[Galaxy S II General] Beefheart:
On LP3 I'm still noticing a slight lag in touch response in comparison to GB, especially on the dialer screen, even with Siyah beta 7. Check it out, bring up the numberpad and notice the delay between pressing the screen and the button reaction. On GB it's immediate.

It's strange, it's almost as if you have GB like touch response in some parts and LPQ type response in others.

[Galaxy S II General] Beefheart:
You can update from CheckRom without a wipe, although afterwards you might encounter a few issues if you don't do a full wipe. Give it a go and if you have problems just flash again with a full wipe -- you have nothing to lose.

You need to use Odin, either CF's Mobile Odin or the Windows version supplied with the first post on this thread. CWM cannot be used.

After the update I suggest you flash Siyah's kernel, again with Odin. This will give you CWM back and improve performance.

Oh, and I'm sure all your questions were answered in the thread if you had looked. Although I don't agree with the people on here who just post that without at least trying to help before hand. Still, I'm sure they feel better for it.
[Galaxy S II General] hIdd3N-:
Nevermind.
[Galaxy S II General] Beefheart:
According to the changelog in Siyah's latest RC kernel (released today), that has been fixed.

- Used lights.exynos4.so which supports both Samsung and CM9 ROMs (thanks to myfluxi for making necessary modifications on it for CM9 part)

- Native BLN support for CM9 based ROMs.

- fixed touch screen sensitivity problem while charging

Titanitum Backup location is set via Menu Key, Preferences, Backup folder location. I think the default location is on the internal SD card, so hope you didn't wipe it when you installed the new rom.
[Galaxy S II General] Beefheart:
Titanium Backup worked fine for me straight from the update.

Also, does anyone know why Google swapped the 'OK' and 'Cancel' confirmation buttons around? I have lost count of the amount of installs I have cancelled because 'Cancel' is now on the left. Bloody annoying and I can't see what it achieved.

Run it and then select Menu, Tools, Manage A-GPS State

Tap reset.

My battery was OK on LPQ once I'd flashed the LP6 modem. It seems a bit better again on LP3. Currently 66% battery left after 13 hours.
[Galaxy S II General] Beefheart:
I just like to say I love Siyah's touchscreen CWM. By far the best version as you no longer need to press the volume button 50+ times to get to a specific folder on a full SD Card -- that couldn't have been good for the buttons and I could never understand why just holding it down didn't repeat. Hopefully more developers will follow this route.
[Galaxy S II General] nomnompie:
Ah thanks for that. I was wondering if it was a kernel issue. Thats the biggest issue I have because at work my phone is plugged in all day as there is no cell svc in the floor I am on so I put it in airplane mode and leave wifi on. Always forever thankful there are devs that fix this stuff. Kind of sad though that the original manufacturers leave these kinds of things in.
[Galaxy S II General] cez10:
awesome thanks :)
[Galaxy S II General] Seymon:
Could you help me with my CSC problem, too?

I'm a little bit concerned of faulting something...

So: I had a VIA-only-CSC and a o2-Germany-Branded 2.3.5 Rom. So i went back to 2.3.4 with a MultiCSC Rom via Odin and changed my CSC to DBT. And then I flashed the official 2.3.6 DBT FW and everything is fine now! (CSC: i9100DBTKH1)

But when reading your post, I'm a little feared flashing the LP3. I'm an o2-Customer, so I wouldn't mind the brandings. But if I flash this official 4.0.3 Rom, will I keep the DBT? (And how would the CSC look like in the menu when typing *#1234#?)

And if I understand that correctly, when the existing CSC does not match the things in the Rom, you won't get Kies Updates? I wouldn't mind that, because since Kies f*cked up a firmware upgrade once, i don't like it anymore :p

But when I flash the official DBT firmware over this o2UK LP3, I would get back the Kies Update-Possibility, wouldn't I?

Sorry for this questions, but I'm a but confused about this Codes... and I don't want to brick something...

Thanks in Advance!

[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Branding is embedded in the firmware and has nothing to do with the CSC .

CSC is just a set of local network settings for auto setup and is not required for phone use . No CSC /wrong CSC = manual network setup .

If you flash above rom it wipes the full firmware .

[Galaxy S II General] gevans35:
With the other ICS roms a message "starting GPS watcher" would appear immediately after closing a navigation aplication, but not with LP3. I hope that doesn't mean it will take as long as GB to lock onto satellites, if so I'll have to go back to one of the earlier builds.
[Galaxy S II General] Borisdmitri:
CSC Sometimes incudes branding. In my case, the provider logo is included in the CSC.

My network configuration comes with whatever csc i use.

I've tested it. If i flash my provider CSC, Boot logo, wallpaper and some branding appears, no matter witch rom i'm using
[Galaxy S II General] ggravier:
JJEgan is correct about branding being embedded in the firmware. But one thing to keep in mind, if you flash a firmware with one CSC over an existing firmware with a different CSC, it wipes the machine on next reboot. Same as if, if your machine has a MultiCSC firmware, you decide to change the CSC by dialing on your phone *#272*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX# (XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX being replaced by your IMEI number). If your fimrware is MultiCSC, you will be promted with a list of possible CSCs to chose from. Picking any one that is different from your existing one will reboot your phone and wipe memory.

I have no problem running phone with a German (DBT) CSC and a French (SFR) SIM card... I didn't even have to configure my network. If I go to the Mobile network settings, then Access Point Names and ask to "Reset to default", I get the proper ones. :)

Gilles.

[Galaxy S II General] cyberundertaker:
Which version is better? Deodexed or odexed. What are the differences?
[Galaxy S II General] qwerty_7564:
Branding is within the CSC specifically the cache.img which is flashed to the cache partition. The file itself is sec_csc.zip which is extracted to the system partition after the flash and then the cache partition is cleared.
