can i flash stock rom, given in this thread with cww mode
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
If you mean CWM recovery mode, then no.

This stock ROM is provided as tar/md5 file and has to be flashed in Odin (or Mobile Odin app if you are already rooted).
[Galaxy S II General] klemenSLO:
If you have ZIP file you can flash it in CWM recovery.
[Galaxy S II General] Tungstwenty:
Wrong.

Just because it's a zip file, doesn't mean it's a flashable zip from recovery. The one shared on the OP certainly isn't.
[Galaxy S II General] PlutoDelic:
even LSN see's no battery improvement here.

got a 2000mah battery, and getting 16-18h with mild/moderate usage is just sh!t, at least incomparable with custom kernels.

Is it indifferent if i flashed Jelly Bean (from ICS Stock Rom) over official Kies or over Odin? I read Samsung repartition the Partitions :confused:for Jelly Bean and then the s2 device have only 11GB useable space.

i have rooted with Stock ICS Rom and then i flashed a Jelly Bean Rom (omega and Wanam Lite) but i have 11GB usable space like on ICS. Partions also not right?

Can someone Explain me?

I'm using 4.1.2 LSJ. I have a problem where when waking my phone it takes a while to be able to use the touch screen. Was this fixed in LSN?
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
It was already fixed in XWLS8 ... and newer JB ROM version (such as XWLSD and XWLSN).

I'm on XWLSN right now and don't have this issue on my phone.

AFAIK, it was called "homebutton lag" and an issue on the first, leaked XXLSJ JB ROM version.
[Galaxy S II General] RoRo1990:
Oh I haven't been up to date with all firmware. How are you liking lsn?
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
As I am running XWLSN for some weeks now, I like it much.

It's very stable and smooth on my phone.

Everything I need works fine.

Many compatible (rooted + custom) kernels and mods available for it.

Battery life is Ok ... I had a little bit better battery life on XWLS8, but XWLSN seems to have more changes - maybe some patches/fixes.

Just my 2 cents ... as you asked for it :cool:

After a long period of CMx & AOKP I'm back to the roots..

GPS Test = so much faster lock, in few seconds inside! With latest AOKP version no lock outside in minutes. (tested with GPS Status)

Unfortunately the latest AOKP version has problems with Mediaserver (the storage card keeps unmounting and mounting) so the battery drained preety quick. Plus I've found out the signal dead. Not to mention another issues of custom ROMs (no native fm radio without need of 3rd party, native divx,xvid, native allshare, etc).

What I don't like on the stock ROM is the UI (childish IMO).

Let's see how it's goin... Hope the 3rd party will have better performance than on AOKP/CM. They were pretty laggy.

Where can I get the I9100ODDLSA CSC file of the Indian 4.1.2 firmware?

If someone could share the link, it would be really helpful. :cool:
[Galaxy S II General] It_ler:
Different options:

1. If you are rooted, just use Mobile Odin app, click on the CSC part (cache + hidden) and then select the ROM file. This will let you flash only the CSC of this ROM.

2. Extract only cache and hidden img files from the ROM tar file and tarball it again. This is a little bit tricky, as you have to set file permissions correctly.

3. Wait for someone doing the job for you and provide the CSC part only of the ROM you want.

Just flash over. After flashing go (in CWM) recovery to kernels' specific options and reset STweaks profile.

If you encounter any problems (shouldn't be any) you can use hawkerpaul's
