If you want to calibrate the motion/accelleration sensors, then you can alternatively use GPS Status app from Play store.

Enable GPS, start GPS Status app, wait for GPS fix, then turn your phone around all three symmetrical axis three times.

Then your sensors will be calibrated.

Hi,

I also have problem for get my 50GB extra space in dropbox. In Dropbox FAQ (https://www.dropbox.com/help/297/en) said: "Dropbox must be "pre-loaded" on your brand new phone or tablet".

I think that dropbox wasn't be installed on this rom, right? Anybody can confirm that?

I've tried what you said (disconnect the device and login again with my old account), but no mail from dropbox has been received... :(
[Galaxy S II General] khantastic:
i have read around here that people did get this 50gb dropbox space though they are in small number, but may be its because we have already got 50gb free space using that s3 trick??? at least i did get it before and i also read somewhere that users who have already obtained the space wont be able to get this extra perk and i read this before JB was officially released.
[Galaxy S II General] culoescopeta:
I didn't get 50GB in the past using the s3 trick nor now with this ROM update... I've linked 3-4 times my mobile phone with my dropbox account without success...

seems like u have small problem with your drivers. try to reinstall (uninstall - then install). try to get into download mode (even if nothing happens on screen) and try to connect once again to pc and flash rom via odin. i assume you haven't had repartition option ticked?
[Galaxy S II General] julandroid:
Unfortunately after the flash and reboot the booting is stuck at the glowing SAMSUNG logo and no wiping or re-flashing helps. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

I'm coming from CyanogenMod 10.1 and wanted to test the latest stock firmware from Samsung.

My PC is running under Linux and the way I flash the firmware is:

sudo heimdall flash --primary-boot boot.bin --cache cache.img --factoryfs factoryfs.img --hidden hidden.img --modem modem.bin --param param.lfs --secondary-boot Sbl.bin --kernel zImage

The image files are extracted from the I9100XWLS8_I9100XXLS8_I9100FOPLS3_HOME.tar.md5

thats why tried different Laptops on different USB ports as i said i cannot get into download Mode tired many times no go .

Not necessarily, you could always downgrade the ROM/bootloader at a later date if you need to reset the counter. Alternatively you can wait for a cwm flashable version.

Any bugs that anyone has noticed so far except 3g not working?
[Galaxy S II General] wilde1970:
Wow what a disappointment!!

After the recent update to ICS on my Transformer which turned a slightly disappointing machine into a slick tablet which became far quicker and more responsive, I was really looking forward to getting ICS on my S2. I was running GB LA4 with Siyah 2.6.7 kernel but after updating to ICS the S2 felt sluggish but still looked just as dull as GB. After 24 hours I've gone back to my orginal setup and will wait until the brilliant XDA developers get into it because they will do a far better job with it than Samsung have. How has Samsung managed to take the nice things out of ICS and make it slower?

Just out of curiosity after flashing LPQ does anyone else get the set-up symbol in the notification bar which you can't get rid if because after tapping it you have to accept a disclamer but a processing error comes up? The only thing that I can think of that could cause it is that its not been officially released in the UK and it can't process it :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] diemadedrei:
dont get me wrong, 3g not working is not a bug it could occur when the csc of your country is not in the rom you flash. Because of that theres a multicsc version where you can change the csc to work.

Known bugs have all been discussed here. Apps not installing can easily be solved by flashing the stock kernel after rooting, wifi from the drawer sometimes freezes the phone and some stuff only few people encounter like bluetooth freezing the phone (only me so far) and stuff

If you don't go in download mode then you can't flash any firmware.

I suggest to try to recover it with KIES, but the chances are very few.

Most likely the only chance is Samsung assistance.

You could to search in XDA forum if someone has made your same error...

AFAIK, the brick-bug only affects Android 4.0.4 ROMs.

Same happened to me coming from cm10.1

What I did:

Booted into stock recovery and it said something about it activating multi csc then I did factory data reset and then it booted.

Dont think the data factory reset was anything to do with it cos id done a full complete wipe before.
[Galaxy S II General] CrisR82:
Just flash a proper ROM for your device...a friend saw me get ICS on my I9100 and he didn't know I9100G was different and he flashed it himself and had a "brick" issue...so he flashed his previous ROM back and it worked fine. (not sure how to do it without download mode though)

Yes, I always see the following, when I enter stock recovery:

My phone is bought from UK and it is XEU version (not Spanish).

However after I'm doing "wipe data/factory reset" I'm still stuck at the same glowing SAMSUNG logo.

I'm wandering whether the problem is with the XEU version - maybe I need to go back to latest XEU version (ICS 4.0.4) and then to try again after I switch the CSC version. I have no other ideas right now.

so we are gunna try the original rom again and see if its gunna work or not .

yea gunna try that .

and i dont know if the repair man when he first fixed used usb jij or not to enter the download mode .or he just flash the rom via the Kies Screen .
[Galaxy S II General] julandroid:
cm-10.1 nightly build from week ago. Yes, the cache is deleted. I don't think it has anything to do with the cache. Maybe there is is something to do with CM 10.1 and the new firmware. At the end I have removed the 32GB sd card and also removed the sim card, but nothing has changed.

[Galaxy S II General] julandroid:
After the fiasco with JB 4.1.2, I've tried to install previous version - ICS 4.0.4 XEU version, but again - the "setup wizard" kept crashing over and over again. Wiping data/cache didn't helped. I never succeed to install any official Samsung firmware.

The good news is that I was able at least to go back to CM10.1, by flashing CWM first.

Am I cursed forever to stick with CM?! Is there any change I ever go back to stock firmware from CM?
[Galaxy S II General] CrisR82:
Battery drain is caused by a permanent wake-lock (I had that issue).

For everyone with that problem, here's what I did and got rid of it:

1 - fully drain your battery (0%, to the point where it won't power-on at all)

2 - recharge your battery without turning on the phone

3 - go to recovery mode and wipe both data and cache

NOTE: backup all your contacts, messages, whatever...this will delete everything!

(I formatted my USB storage aswell before step 1, but I think that's not necessary)

No wake-lock for me, 17 hours use, 12% battery down (only checking the clock every once in a while).
[Galaxy S II General] artnex82:
Re: [Stock Official Firmwares] I9100XWLS8 (4.1.2) - Spain (FOP) [23-01-13]

[Galaxy S II General] Tungstwenty:
Careful there.

Chances are that if you're not noticing any delay at all when turning on the screen, then the device wasn't in deep sleep and therefore your battery consumption is way bigger than it should.

There are reports of permanent wakelocks preventing deep sleep, you should use BBS to identify what could be happening (IMO media scanner is a candidate).

Remember: if there's a delay of about 1s for the screen to activate when you press Power, that's a good sign - the device was deep asleep and consuming the absolute minimum power. If it responds quickly, it wasn't sleeping but merely with the screen powered off.
[Galaxy S II General] dr.pythagora:
I am on cm10.1, but I like to give a try to this new jb stock rom.

I do have a i910M (canadian) model. Has anyone tried this rom with this model?

Is this rom rooted or rooting is apart? If not, has anyone rooted with the 'standard' known methods (such as Phil's kernel)?

And, is there any cwm flashable version of this rom? For Linux user this would be great.
[Galaxy S II General] CrisR82:
To be fair, perfect battery use is near impossible to achieve without spending tons of time in the first place...I'd say as long as the device is not spending long time working while not in use, it should be fine.

Also, Media Scanner doesn't seem to cause any issues for me as far as I've seen, I connected it via USB several times not and it always did a media scan after that, but no wake-lock appeared or repeated scans that drain the battery. (only transferred APKs though, not actual music or videos, that might be a thing?)
