You can wipe cache and dalvik before or after the flash of the rom. The point Is to wipe BEFORE you reboot the phone.

I flashed 5.1.2 on 5.1 - wiped cache/dalvik and rebooted.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] lsangio:
YES :D

which version of accuweather.com do you use? (click on widget for details)

i ask because in my case the cut is not so accurate and where you read PARZIALMENTE SOLEGGIATO i only read PARZIALMENTE and the low border of the cloud is missing :(

I think is an older wersion of the widget... your or mine...

Hmmm...

I realized that is a launcher issue: at the moment i'm using APEX and with it i have such cut unkind.

As soon as i switch to another launcher i.e. TouchWiz the cutting edge is nearly perfect :)

Thanks for sharing your knowledge...

thx

If you dont find solution go to 4.8, change wallpaper and upgrade 5.1.2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Beso:
Everything works fine. Just one MAJOR problem still remains.. Calender widget is broken :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] doongoo:
Use another calendar widget then: I would recommend simple calendar widget, works on apex, nova, TW, TW3

I was also getting this cool screen closure when pressed the lock screen. The screen would just flash down to the centre and turn off now im just getting the ordinary fade into lock screen. Why is that? Anyway to change it?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BenG7:
Hi,

hmm I just re-flashed 4.8 as an intermediate step to flashing 5.1.2...

and it just made me realize, sorry to say, how much we have lost in terms of speed & efficiency (less buggy) since...

I know it sounds like I'm negative and criticizing the work and dedication of Nguyen in the 5 series, I do not want to, but honestly try for yourself to see the difference!

This has convinced me and I'm sticking with 4.8 for now!

cheers

After update to 5.1.2 sometimes during calling, go down in offline and appear a message to reactive online.... ???

Only me ??

Thank
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cybertex1969:
Is the one shipped with 5.1.2. Wait... Unfreezing it... Uhm. Cannot see version in widget details, but Titanium Backup reports Accuweather.com: 12.02.29.01 (and 12.01.12.01 the daemon).

BTW, it's not a widget version problem, but is about grid dimension of the launcher, or DPI.

If you use the default touchwiz size (4x4) the resize should be ok (my screenshot was taken using old touchwiz). If you are using (for example) Apex with a 5x5 or 5x4 grid, the resize isn't perfect. See my other screenshot with Apex and a grid of 5x4. The text in the widget is truncated.

Try with touchwiz, just to see, and then test others DPI / grid sizes.

BTW2, I hate accuweather. I find Fancy widget more accurate in finding the right location....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tenchi0205:
where to get the 4.8?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cybertex1969:
Have you some more precise elements, just to let us think about it? I found 5.1.2 similar to 4.8, but didn't paid much attention in this.

Are you using the default kernel shipped with the ROMs? For example, I flashed Abyss and it seems to me that performance are lower than siyah (same rom of course).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xinfinityoO:
does the s3 launcher support creating folders in app drawer..just like how the s2 launcher does
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cybertex1969:
yes.. If you're unsure about the steps, just do a nandroid backup via CWM.

Reboot in recovery, before flashing or wiping just select "backup and restore" and then "backup". If anything goes wrong, you can use the image to restore back your phone.

Sorry to say but im lagging allot with this ROM now, and my touch screen sometimes does not even respond when i press it??:confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lsangio:
tried touchWiz and it works just fine :D

now i'll investigate how to switch grid to a more comfortable size...

I'm afraid i can't get rid of this issue... current grid size is set at 4x4 with auto size disabled, and both hori and vert border set tu null

[Galaxy S II Android Development] nekisia:
Hi there.First time with VK rom.I m impressed.I think that this rom will be my default one.

So,nothing is imaginary!

I ve noticed 2 things.

when i was in landscape mode and disable auto rotation from notification bar buttons,the phone didnot turn automatically in portrait mode.even if i hold it vertically, the phone orientation stucks on landscape mode.

And last but not a bug,i have one force close when i enable the wifi.Wait about 30 secs to be enabled and then...fc.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rob.moran:
I also love this ROM but I have noticed a bug, the data usage does not seem to be working on my phone. Anyone else noticing this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] qwerty1q:
I am impressed with this ROM too.

I am on 4.4.1 for 14h (screen 3.40h) wifi ON (2000mah battery) and 56% left

(so I presume it will get better and better as it is the first cycle)

I recommend a full wipe if you are coming from a different ROM.

Fast, solid, no bugs!

Thank you

What Kernel are you using?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rob.moran:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] the_ultimate:
Use Audioboostsgs2 version 2. Much better.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Jokesy:
I think Siyah v3.0rc2 is the problem

Try Speedmod kernel, working perfectly but if you prefer Siyah, you can download the latest version 3.0.1.

good luck
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rob.moran:
Thanks for that now for the silly question, I'm new to all this how do I install it? Is it the same as other updates go to cwm and flash the file? Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Jokesy:
Yes, you have to flash via CWM recovery.

Just make sure you download the CWM versions (most likely in .zip), then boot into recovery, then flash it.

If you have other problems do let me know
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BenG7:
Voodoo Louder does it for me; audio beats is pure marketing crap i.e. a mere set of equalizer settings (that compensate for the defaults of expensive crappy headphones of the same name); I already have a very good equalizer in PowerAmp and a very good pair of AKG headphones...

I'm not not installing this patch...

@nguyenxuanhoa: any chance you could make the audio beats optional for those who want it please?

I tried too. Also with 4x4 it doesn't resize well..

BTW, has anyone understood how grid setup works in apex? There are two settings, horizontal grid and vertical grid, both having two values (in italian translation, column and column). It seems to me that for horizontal only works the first value, and for vertical only works the second.

Unable to install Titanium backup after updating to LPG version. Somebody please help me with a solution
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tenchi0205:
no problem here
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alinawyx:
that depends on what kind of customization you wanna achieve. for myself, i prefer to use Go Launcher EX, because it's free, lots of themes, and most importantly, it's consider as an app. i can simply backup with Titaniumbackup, wipe data when flashing new rom, and i haven't had any trouble restoring the settings, like folder arrangements and placement of desktop icons; it's only the widgets that always fails to restore, so i had to re-add the widgets.

did not have that problem. how is it possible not being able to install? if you download and install from playstore, the only requirement is version compatibility. have you try wiping cache and dalvik? otherwise, try a full wipe data again and re-flash the rom.

Hi,

A newbie here. Just flashed and rooted my S2 yesterday. Just want to give this ROM a try. But the 264 MB file is just too slow in downloading. Or is it just me?

Had to stop the downloading as it was goin nowhere.

I flashed LPG from my stock O2 firmware and rooted. So any other thing has to be installed or downloaded before flashing this ROM? Like kernel, modem or anything ?Not much knowhow as it's my first ROM. Thank you.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alinawyx:
I've been having this issue. The wifi icon seems to appear empty all the time. The only period when i see the signal bare20as per normal is after each boot up. After i put it to sleep (i have juice defender to auto disconnect when i put my mobile to sleep), and after it wakes up, the signal bar becomes empty. I've also tried, rebooting it with the wifi icon normal, then manually disconnecting wifi and reconnect it, and wifi icon becomes empty again.

Note the following:

- I do not oc or uv, all settings are predefined in the given rom, default kernel settings (governor, io scheduler)

-	've purchased the JKay Deluxe Settings from PlayStore

- This issue had been recurring since v5.0

---------- Post added at 05:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:19 PM ----------

nothing much, u don't need anything to flash a new custom rom, especially when ur phone is new. If you need to backup anything, i suggest titanium backup from PlayStore, it's free. After flashing a new custom rom, u'll see a triangle sign when ur phone reboot, to get rid of that, u can try TriangleAway v1.51 or USBJig.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cybertex1969:
You can flash all the things in one step:

- Start your phone in recovery,

- Wipe data / factory reset,

- Flash your rom,

- Optional steps:

--- Flash your new modem,

--- Flash your new kernel,

--- Flash any mod you want to install,

--- Wipe cache partition / dalvik cache

- Reboot

Maybe for the first times, you could flash the rom only, reboot, see if it's all ok, reboot in recovery and flash other things :)

downloading the ROM file as I type.

u mentioned optional steps. flash new modem, kernel, mod??

what are these stuff? wont be automatically installed when i flash this ROM?

are they done in one go?

what are these two files for? do i need these also to be flashed?

Hi

now, nevertheless, I have changed over again the status bar with Wifi, Data, signal and battery.

I like this really very well.:rolleyes:

Has still done 2x new backgrounds and fits quite well to the style. However, this is a taste thing...

If the Screenshots looks and, otherwise, the VK runs v5.1.2 together with the modem LPX and the CF Root Kernel LPW without mistake. Jkay functions perfectly and no falls of the SystemUI or other. Absoult stable Rome VK and really from the running lonesome point... However, also here there are different opinions I can confirm it really.... Perfect..Quality...:cool:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cybertex1969:
ROM zip contains all you need: kernel (to startup up the phone) and modem (to use phone and 3G/UMTS). You can flash the zip file and you're done.

But you can choose to use different kernels or modems than the ones shipped with the rom. For example, VK 5.1.2 comes with siyah kernel 3.3.1, but some people prefer to use speedmod kernel, or abyss kernel.

Idem for the modem, I for example use modem NEKI2, optimized for H3G carrier.

The first adds the lock icon in the status bar, the second enables MTP protocol for the USB. You need them only if you want these features (flash them after flashing the rom)
