Exchange Issue

Hi All,

What is exactly the problem with this ROM regarding Exchange?
[Galaxy S II General] karendar:
Fido network + LP3 modem/radio = SUPER FAST speeds and I get reception where my signal is SUPER WEAK usually (My office). It's really a VERY nice step up! Highly recommended for 9100M/9100 users in Montreal for 3G reception
[Galaxy S II General] Monu123:
not only on this from but on all Samsung pics released so far exchange start to sync and after sometime gives connection error. I think the problem is with exchange 2010 only with GB its working fine. This is discussed in Q&A section as well.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Well flashed this after seeing that scrolling is butter smooth, but I have never seen this type of scrolling, nor do I like it. Well it's smooth, but it's sorta roller type scrolling, I do like elastic type scrolling always, and one more thing, no way scrolling is faster than LPQ's, because here if you swipe a page very fast it will ultimately scroll everything on the way, where in LPQ it'd skip some elements to reach the last/first of a page, LPQ reacts as per your fingers movement, this one doesn't.

Anyway, people could like this new scrolling type, but it was not for me. Back on LPQ.

BTW- I liked the O2 boot up though, reminded me of my 8/9 years old O2 ;)

The red light effects around 'S' were cool too.
[Galaxy S II General] qwerty1q:
is there any chance to turn off boot animation sound?
[Galaxy S II General] roswell782:
Sboulema's mods works on LP3, i flashed LPQ version,no problem.
[Galaxy S II General] Dmonty:
Sorry guys, I don't like LP3. I've tried Polish LPQ ( ran fine ) tried 3UK LPQ ( ran fine, infact better than Polish ), now LP3 on the other hand :

1 - After flashing LP3 via Check Fus and Mobile odin all looked fine, after 10 minutes I started loosing Data connection, the screen was showing H+, H, 3g etc but no internet, no BBC News no nothing data related. Rebooted and again after 10 minutes Data connections lost again. This has been happening for the past 3 hours.

2 - Lots of apps are F/Cing, I didn't have this issue with the other firmwares...

Also agree with the above re scrolling, I'm not taken to it.

Flashed back to 3UK and all is well again.

Just my tupence...

Dmonty
[Galaxy S II General] Marcb:
did you wipe data/cache after updating to LP3 ?
[Galaxy S II General] Dmonty:
Yip, I've been flash happy for a long time, so the first time I installed it, I didn't wipe... Then re flashed with wipe data/cache, still exactly the same issues.
[Galaxy S II General] beston94:
Well I'd never thought I'd say this but this build is pretty slick. They have improved alot of things. The scrolling is still not to my liking however it improved by making of usable. So all in all its worth the update guys.

Have a good day
[Galaxy S II General] armanderli:
The strange thing being that you are the only one havin' those issues so.....
[Galaxy S II General] Dmonty:
Agreed - very strange, from other reports this is a 1st class rom... I'll test again later tonight after I make a few calls
[Galaxy S II General] raf2k:
I've flashed this ROM over LP2 without factory reset (just wiped cache)

Scrolling is definitely better than in LPQ and LP2, but its differend from the GB ROMs.

All my applications, Wifi and 3G works fine.

Its still takes few seconds to access contact book sometimes.
[Galaxy S II General] norpan111:
What the suck are they doing with the touchscreen? ! Seriously?
[Galaxy S II General] kryptoner:
Its much much better now!
[Galaxy S II General] Devang.chauhan:
waiting for your change log...
[Galaxy S II General] alferret:
Same here, no wipe & no issues. Faster, smoother also I'm on a locked orange handset.

Yup! Sent from my SGS II.......
[Galaxy S II General] redzion:
Flashed via MobileODIN.. everything OK and much better then on LPQ..
[Galaxy S II General] ukdtweak:
Also flashed via mobile Odin, looking good so far.
[Galaxy S II General] andreasS2:
I assume this rom is non-wipe just like the previous one, could anyone confirm this please?
[Galaxy S II General] armanderli:
yes it is not wipe...If you flash it, you are goin' to keep your data...
[Galaxy S II General] picco944:
Is the ROM rooted? I am on LPH ROM and it should work fine if I don't wipe, right?
[Galaxy S II General] brack11:
Right, and it's rooted.
[Galaxy S II General] drrkgupta:
Lp3 ROM seems better than lp2 and lpq. Scrolling is far far better. It is a non wipe ROM.
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
yeah!!! this is a poor move from samsung devs, never felt this much frustrated on samsung so far. the point of concern is "what if they use the same scrolling for the future too?" scary!!!
[Galaxy S II General] coversnail:
I think it just goes to prove that it is impossible to please everybody. Countless people here were complaining about the scrolling on LPQ, others complained about LP7, and now people are complaining about LP3. People were obviously complaining about GB scrolling too otherwise Google wouldn't have tried to change it. Personally I've used them all and after a few days you easily adapt to the different scrolling characteristics and don't even notice anymore.

Still getting used to LP3 scrolling at the moment as its quite fast and sensitive, but its fine for me.
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Lp3 scrolling is good and fast no doubt about that, but its not ics scrolling its gingerbread scrolling. What's the point in back porting GB things to ics rom? Isn't it poor?
[Galaxy S II General] rocky23:
yes true wiv a new rom things should b new , an not the old lady wiv makeup....iam getting scard tht this might b the last update,,,like my sgs1 ,it neva got any update afta 2.3.3 gb....companies hav come to a point tht they r pushing ppl to take new phones or no updates.....don kno were this android will stop :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Scrolling should be according to your fingers movement. The scrolling was present in iOS was the perfect one. (GB, ICS or LP3 scrolling, none is perfect, the worst one of LP3 IMO). I doubt I'll ever have that butter but the least I can/should expect is somewhere near.

And ICS's biggest advantage supposed to be better hardware acceleration, I doubt how well it is implemented, and all I care about is how Samsung did it, not anybody else. My phone says 'Samsung' at the top, nothing else :cool:

Swyping from my GT-I9100 via Tt
[Galaxy S II General] Dmonty:
Working fine now on LP3, in the end I factory reset and wiped everything. This was done last night and it's still stable... I'm keeping this as a daily until CPW or Samsung unbranded comes out...

Cheers
[Galaxy S II General] roberto18:
Do you guys prefer to wipe/factory reset first before installing lp3 or instal it on lpq with just wipe data/cache?

Is this version better than lpq? Should i upgrade? Still don't know after reading all posts. Thanks

yes it ll be gud if u wipe data/factory reset...clean install

Screen lock delay

Anyone else is experiencing a long delay for the screen lock on LP3? Pressing the home or power button takes a bit more than 1 sec for me to bring up the lock screen. Quite annoying ...

Anything I can do to fix that? (LA4 and a few others back were fine)

Really liking this build. I did not wipe and all is fine. Scrolling is only wierd in the native browser. Fine in Chrome beta and everywhere else. A bit weird. No force closes, loving the new face unlock.
[Galaxy S II General] Rocha70:
Anyone else having an issue with the speaker?

Since upgrading music seems to have less bass and sounds really tinny.

On the bright side, I've was driving around with my bluetooth on for over an hour today and it hasn't rebooted itself yet. Looks like they might have fixed it. I couldn't go more than 10-15 minutes without a reboot on LP2.
[Galaxy S II General] pawmadsen:
I dont have any problems with bt on streaming radio to my car for long periods of time on lp2
[Galaxy S II General] Idan73:
I can vouch that bluetooth stereo on ics lpq lp7 and lp2 is definitely more prone to disconnect compared to gingerbread, especially if the call comes in and the other party hangs up first.

Lots of times you can reconnect call profile but media audio requiring full phone and bt headset restart. Also noticeable lag especially during navigation, lots of voices first word being cut, the only workaround being playing audiobook or listening music during navigation so that media audio is engaged prior to turn prompt.

This did not happen on gingerbread or rather only with cool reader did I ever experience this behaviour. Moon reader did not suffer from this.

If lp3 solves any of these, it is a progress.
[Galaxy S II General] Tommy544:
Browser

Hi everyone,

I have just updated my official Samsung 2.3.5 ROM to an official LP3 ROM using KIES. Everything looks to be fine so far except the stock browser. Unlike the browser in the 2.3.5 ROM, this doesn't "lock" your screen horizontally when scrolling and it reflows the text, as if I was zoomed in, immediately after it loads a web page even when I'm still zoomed out.

I could live with the second problem as I always double-tap the text anyway, but the browser is pretty much unusable for me without the "lock" feature.

I also noticed that Dolphin HD browser, which I used as a backup browser suffers now from exactly the same problems. It worked perfectly fine on GB.

Is this a known bug? Is there anything I could do to fix it? Like to replace the .apk with an old version?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II General] mastabog:
Thank you. I applied it but it's just as slow, although all others are reporting that it does fix the home screen lag. I think something is going on with my LP3 because it's slow everywhere. Launching anything is visibly slower than all gingerbread roms I had. There is a visible lag to virtuall all actions.

I flashed the LP3 over the intratech's XWLA4 (frankenstaein), without wipe.

Does wiping the cache or dalvik cache help? I don't want to do a full wipe because I hate reconfigure my phone manually -- titanium backup is not that good yet at restoring from gingerbread backups.

Anyone has any idea of how to fix?

If not, what is the quickest and safest way to save and restore my old gingerbread setup into ics if I do a full wipe? (i tried titanium backup and it's messy). I have a lot installed and configured on the phone.

edit: I rooted the phone without a custom kernel using this method. Could that be the cause?
[Galaxy S II General] norpan111:
Do a nandroid and then full wipe including system and see if it helps.if it does you know what you have to do, if it doesn't...back to GB!
[Galaxy S II General] Silverwolf2:
That's why web browsing in SGSII sucks, I never had the lock feature on my phone.

Well that and text rendering, it's impossible to read text from desktop pages without zoom in. It should work like safari mobile, well that is fix in Chrome for android.
[Galaxy S II General] mastabog:
I did a nandroid backup and will try a wipe.

How about my other question: if a wipe proves to solve the issue, what is the quickest and safest way to restore my old gingerbread setup into ICS?

I hate to reconfigure a lot manually. Titanium backup does a messy job restoring gingerbread backups into ics. What do people use to upgrade from GB to ICS without having to do much manual reconfig, reinstall apps, etc?
[Galaxy S II General] aceofclubs:
Nandroid backup and restore between different versions. I do it all the time.

Use something like mybackup root to backup and restore call logs, sms, etc. Or TB for apps.

also noticed the connection on H sometimes hit and miss when browsing not tried different modems yet but annoying atm :(
[Galaxy S II General] malnav:
I hope it will help our cooker :D
[Galaxy S II General] silverstorm:
I had this problem when I moved to XWLA4 (2.3.6) after being on Intratech's KK5 (also 2.3.6) rom.

I used to use the Browser with the 'Auto-fit pages' setting ticked under browser settings.

This let me double-tap anywhere on the overview page to zoom in, and the browser would fit it in a neat vertical column with the text zoomed in. Scrolling up and down maintained a straight track vertically without the page veering left and right. You could read the column and scroll down to the next section with ease.

On XWLA4 (2.3.6) with auto-fit enabled, double-tapping does zoom the page into the text with it re-fitted, but if you try to scroll down, it doesn't scroll vertically straight making the user experience worse than before and more frustrating.

So I thought I'll extract the Browser.apk from KK5 and adb copy it over the existing Browser of LA4. I was shocked to see, even the old browser behaving like the LA4 one! It wouldn't lock into a vertical scroll.

It seems Samsung have done something elsewhere (framework?) to the scrolling/zooming 'property' independent of the browser that affects this. I was hoping ICS would fix this, but looks like the issue is still there and it even affects 3rd party browsers according to your post.

I evetually went back to my KK5 nandroid back-up which is the best I've had so far. All works great including MHL HDMI output etc. Only issue on KK5, similar to all other GB roms is the lock-screen lag.

[Galaxy S II General] warfanax:
Thats what pisses me of too with ICS builds. its so hard to scroll and keep the page straight.

---------- Post added at 01:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 AM ----------

With Lock feature he means, if your are reading something zoomed in and when you scroll the page up or down page doesn't go down or up straight any more.

for example; if you are reading a forum and fit the text in the screen with double tapping if you scroll the page down or up it goes to every direction and very sensitive your finger's movement. Before, with Gingerbread when if you scroll up or down it was keeping the page aligned unless you move your fingers sideways drastically.
[Galaxy S II General] Silverwolf2:
I know.

This very sensitive "scroling" is not an ICS thing. My phone came with 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 (can't remember) and I had this issue, that's why I said I never had the lock feature. I thougt it was an android things.

After flashing LP3, when I added this line to build.prop, I ended up with a freeze on Samsung's logo at the start and I had to flash again...

Any other way to remove the camera sound? I removed a few files in system/media/ui and I could shut down the shutter sound, but not the "beep" that comes before it.
[Galaxy S II General] Zaben:
Changing your ringer to vibrate or mute will turn off the autofocus sound. The sound file is inside Camera.apk itself so you will need a modified version of that package to totally get rid of the sounds.

[Galaxy S II General] jerome.d:
Yes, I know that. I don't want to change my mode (sound/vibrate/mute) anytime I want to take a picture. On GB ROM we could simply edit some files but, indeed, since ICS the focus sound is inside the camera apk.

I just thought, since kmaximax said it in its post, that there was a way to block the camera from doing any sound. But the one he suggested ended up in a freeze at boot for me (stuck on "Samsung Galaxy S II GTI9100" text).

[Galaxy S II General] kmaximax:
you did add it to the bottom of the build.prop file didnt you and not the start!?

i did this with mine using root explorer

using root explorer I edited the build.prop in the /system folder

at the bottom of the text i added this line ....

ro.camera.sound.forced=0

then hit SAVE and EXIT and rebooted/restarted the phone

another way is to do the same but using the local.prop file (you may have to create it)

this i found when looking for a mod for the mute of camera sounds ...

1. Create a file called “local.prop” in /data/ if it doesn’t exist. Example: “/data/local.prop”

2. Open the file “/data/local.prop”

3. add the line to the file:

ro.camera.sound.forced=0

4. Reboot and all sound in the camera app is completely silent.

5. To recover the sound, you can either delete the local.prop file or change the code to:

ro.camera.sound.forced=1

no idea why your phone did not boot after this mod ...but works fine for me using LPS and LP3 and now on the latest LP4 using the same technique using the build prop edit :)

WiFi not starting sometimes

I have the same problem with WiFI. I'm on ICS LPS (Polish version).

I noticed when this problem happens. Its after a long night. Whan I try to open wifi in the moring it gets stuck.

I somewhat found a "solution" but its not always working. During the stuck process i fiddle with WiFi direct (turning it on/off repetitively) and try to open it as well. In most cases wifi direct starts and that's the moment when WiFi will work. After that I dont have problems until next morning.

I read somewhere that this issue is related to the fact that the router is set to hide the wifi network (not broadcasting SSID).
[Galaxy S II General] Erlanderterv:
I am the person who had the problem with wifi not connecting when the SSID wasn't being broadcast.

Since I fixed it about 3 days ago it has been working well. Mind you I don't turn wifi off as I get good battery life and don't need to.

The phone now re-connects to wifi when I take it out of range and then return. So for me it is all now working correctly.

My fix was only to turn wifi off from the status bar and then turn it back on. I've only had to do this once.
