I've been running AOKP ROMs for a few months but miss Samsung's better Contacts integration with Facebook (via Social Hub), so have been thinking about going back to a Samsung ICS ROM, and Omega ICS is the obvious choice, but thought I'd keep an open mind and try VK and others.

So I've given it a go, and it looks good on the whole, but I find the customised animations excessive, very annoying in fact because they actually *slow down* use of the handset (e.g. dialog ones that take half a second every time) so I'm sorry to say that I'm going to ditch it and try other ICS ROMs instead.

I'm not "complaining", just thought some constructive feedback might be helpful, if not to VK then perhaps to other thread readers who are easily annoyed by animations.

I certainly will NOT be trying the ROM suggested by ruicc though, it looks absolutely awful!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] stevehkim:
You can just flash vk ics animations or jellybean animations from the theme thread

Ported VK w/ bad ass Jkay.

Siyah synthetics and K-tuned for maximum performance.

I'm having this problem all of a sudden. Everything was fine until a few hours ago when WhatsApp suddenly crashed...then all Google apps...then the clock.

I tried clearing the cache and Dalvik cache...with fix permissions, but it didn't help.

Is there any way to resolve this without having to reinstall the ROM from scratch?

when yiu installed the rom yuo made the 3 wipes ?

if not so this is the problem...

just backup all the apps and make the wipes my friend.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] arcmanov:
Yes I did. I always do when installing a new ROM...even its another version of the same ROM.

It got so bad, even android processes started crashing, making the phone unusable. I eventually had to re-install the ROM.

Titanium Backup is really a godsend in those instances. :good:

Don't know what made things go to hell in a handbasket so rapidly and catastrophically though. Par for the course with custom ROMs I guess. :)

Everything seems like it's back to normal for now. Emphasis on 'seems like'. :laugh:

You can change dpi with apps from market, like lcd moder, nitrality, etc. But make sure you are running kernel which support lower dpi, otherwise phone won't boot.

Hey guys, new JKay Deluxe framework files v14.1 for XWLPG for those who have bought Deluxe Settings.

I've successfully installed XWLPG_JKay_Deluxe_ICS_Nexus_v14_1_1_deodexed.zip.

So if you can't wait new version of VK ROM go ahead.

where is this new 5.1.3 ?

at the main page its 5.1.2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xacuiabas:
Beso, good morning!

I accessed the site developer's Local Sync and found text explaining the possible cause of the problem: "In Android 4 contacts application and database fully supports 3rd party applications and there should be no issues. It is possible to edit/add only data for contact that are synchronized with Outlook. If manufacturer replaced contacts application with own version, contacts may be impossible to add/edit in phone in Local Sync account (or even Contacts application crashes). E.g. it looks like that Samsung replaced Android 4 apps with own Touchwiz versions which are Android 2 apps. In such a case install Android 4 stock contacts application. Issue with Samsung phones is fixed in Android version 4.0.4 (tested with Samsung Galaxy S3).". The application of the contacts is the official in version 5.1.2? If not, where can I find the official version of contacts.apk and how do I change that is installed by this?

Try different kernel, fix permissions in recovery.

today is just not my day i guess

the only thing that is still giving me hope is that i can still go into download mode but not in recovery anymore, so i'm in the process of downloading lightning rom and hoping i can flash it with success.

Difference to original VK are the added apex launcher, go launcher, S3 live wallpaper, S3 photowall, S3 deep see. All the other things are the same as in the original VK. And also a transparency bug is solved during playing some games (where instead of the game texture the wall paper was visible)

Sorry, I am now not close to any PC, so I cannot link.
