Guys, Need Some Answer(s)

Hi you guys! I'm planning to use NeatROM, but I'm currently on ICS (Stock). So from scratch, and surfing for datas and infos, I managed (hopefully) to gather steps on my way to NeatROM. But I have questions and doubts on it. Can you guys help me out?

So, here's the steps I planned based on my S2 Guide Surfing:

1. Root my ICS (Done)

2. Flash Stock JB Official Firmware via Odin XWMS1? XWMS2? or XWLSW?

Questions Regarding This Step:

A. Do I have to backup my /efs folder from ICS here?

B. Do I have to Wipe Data/Factory Reset + Wipe Cache BEFORE/AFTER flashing the JB Firmware?

3. Flash Siyah? or DorimanX? Kernel via Odin

Questions Regarding This Step:

A. Can I run these kernels on my Stock JB ROM (if succeededly flashed)?

B. If I do a backup on Siyah via its CWM, and changed to DorimanX, then noticed that the kernel's not my type, can I restore my backup from Siyah's to DorimanX's CWM? Or does the both kernel have the same CWM?

4. Flash NeatROM via Custom CWM

Questions Regarding This Step:

A. If I flashed NeatROM (which I saw that it has it's own kernel), will it be overwritten my Siyah/DorimanX kernel? Or they will still be there?

I know Steps 2-3 are out of the Thread's Scope, so you can ignore it (Copied from my Q&A Thread). But it would be helpful if you answer it, too! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
If you are rooted then i will suggest you to download the Mobile Odin lite from play store, Now flash the Dorimanx or Siyah kernel for ICS using Mobile ODIN. Now you have custom Recovery called CWM, backup your current firmware using CWM.

No need to flash the latest JB firmware to flash the Neatrom.

After backing up I'll recommend you to download the Philz kernel flashable zip and flash the kernel under custom recovery, now from advanced reboot in to recovery and flash the Neatrom zip.

Neatrom installation will automatic backup your efs when it will be flashed.

Do I have to Wipe Data/Factory Reset + Wipe Cache BEFORE/AFTER flashing the JB Firmware?

Yes before install Neatrom you have to do it.

Can I run these kernels on my Stock JB ROM (if succeededly flashed)?

Yes you can but choose the right version of kernel as dorimanx 8.xx and siyah 6.xx will work on JB firmware.

If I do a backup on Siyah via its CWM, and changed to DorimanX, then noticed that the kernel's not my type, can I restore my backup from Siyah's to DorimanX's CWM? Or does the both kernel have the same CWM?

Both have CWM 6 touch recovery and will work without any issue as my personal experience.

If I flashed NeatROM (which I saw that it has it's own kernel), will it be overwritten my Siyah/DorimanX kernel? Or they will still be there?

Yes it will be overwritten but you can flash Apolo, Siyah, Dorimanx acoording to your choice.

Welcome to NeatFamily.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Thanks for a much detailed and swift answer! :D

I can't see Siyah's ICS Kernel or it's Download Link. Can you kindly link me there please? I would be very grateful if you would :)

Philz's Kernel Flashable Zip? What's that? :eek:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Go to philz thread.

You have philz kernel for ics .

Download .md5 according to your build number (see in settings/about phone)

Just flash it through odin.

Then

-back up

-install neat rom with full wipe

-reboot
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Can I flash the Philz's Kernel for ICS via Mobile Odin?

Edit: Oh wait.. It can be flashed via Stock Recovery too... Neat! :D

So, why do I have to flash Siyah/DorimanX ICS Kernel first before I flash Philz? That doesn't quite make sense to me... :eek:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
http://d-h.st/Bcf that is the tar file of Siyah which can be flashed via ODIN or Mobile ODIN. Mobile Odin is used to avoid the yellow triangle at booting time which affects nothing on your phone.

A flashable zip is which you can flash under recovery no PC or ODIN required for this.

---------- Post added at 10:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:53 AM ----------

If you will flash the Philz then you don't need to flash them :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Yes

Go ahead.

If u want to flash thru s recovery.

Then u must have .zip extension
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Thanks, both of you guys! Now I'm much confident on my steps to becoming a NeatROM user! :D

Now, here's the New Build-Up:

1. Flash Philz's Kernel (Ongoing)

2. Backup

Question Again:

? : Does this Backup Procedure backups my whole ROM (includes /system /boot /data?)

3. Flash NeatROM

Suggestions Needed:

! : Is the new release (XWMS2), well... uhm... pretty neat? Or if you guys using a Stable Version, can you kindly state it?

! : What kernel do you guys use? Please state if it is for performance or battery-saving or balance. :D

Thanks again , you guys again for the help! :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Yes.

Nandroid will back your whole current rom.

In case something goes wrong you can revert back to your old rom by restoring it..So u don't need to worry

Xwms2 is latest

Neat rom + apolo 4.13 kernel.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] insaf_mohd:
So Xwms2+Aplolo 4.13 regular is the best bet dude??? Did you compare between stock philz and apolo on the new base Xwms2??

I wish if I can find the changelog for Xwms2 over Xwms1 somewhere:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Hmm.

At least for me its very good.

I lose -11%/hr when am using wifi.

Deep sleep is also good.

See the op for changelog.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Oh yeah, by the way, can I flash Apolo Kernel via Mobile Odin? And what's the diff between Free and Paid of Mobile Odin? :eek:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Oh yeah:D:D:D

U still did not flash neat rom huh?

Y do u want to use mobile odin when You can a flash apolo thru recovery ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] michael-91:
I did not understand. Apk file .. I turned into the zip but not funziona.dovrei copy the apk in sistem app to get the home button?

Inviato dal mio GT-I9100 con Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Oh yeah, sorry... I thought Apolo can only be flashed via Odin (PC), so I was wondering if Mobile Odin can do the same job. When I looked the Apolo Thread the 3rd time, I saw that it's CWM flashable (yeah, I got blinded :eek: ).

Thanks for reminding me! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:

I like your avatar so much.:D:D:)

Ooops, sorry OP, getting Out of Topic :p

Anyways, downloading NeatROM now, gonna flash it later... lemme see what this baby can do :D

Oh, if I flashed the NeatROM, do I have to flash the Apolo Kernel after, also? Or after flashing NeatROM, do I have to Reboot first, then flash the Apolo Kernel afterwards?

OT, haha tropapipz! :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Alyseon:
Yes its recommended to reboot then flash Apollo after ?

Sent From My Sm-N9005 ????
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
Yes, recommended to reboot each time you flash any zips from recovery to avoid any fc or bugs.

(sometimes I don't reboot coz am too lazy :laugh::laugh:)

Also it is recommended to wipe your current kernel before flashing new kernel.

Try searching GS2KernelWipe then flash it before flashing Apolo.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Many40:
Have you booted your phone before flashing the mod?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cobr:
did u restart after you put 3.4 ? try fixing permissions after you put lpy mod
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amnya:
Hey sale, i installed latest lite with wipe. After a reboot, i flashed removed apps. My phone keeps giving me random crashes from i think com.google.process.gapps.

I did dalvik clean and cache clean and fixed permissions, still have it. Please advise.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] red.hat:
Did you do a full wipe? You can try flashing without wipe and it should take care of the problem. If not do a full wipe
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amnya:
As i wrote, i did all kinds of wipe. No idea whats causing this. Its on and off. Very random.

Thanks and Congratulations Great rom!

Sorry my bad English :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
Check neatrom update apps mate...you can see there those mods if it is ready or compatible...

Some are compatible some are not.

For me eventhough it says in the neatrom update mods are coming soon, I always try to flash old mods to the latest neatrom and luckily most of them are working fine. Right now am back to v5.4.2 and am happy to say also some of the latest mods works well.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Thanks! :D

GS2KernelWipe?

So, uhm... After flashing NeatROM (without Rebooting), I can flash this GS2KernelWipe (which probably removes the NeatROM's kernel, I suppose), then after that, flashing also the Custom Kernel (in this case, Apolo), then Reboot....

Correcto? :eek:

Get GS2KernelWipeV2.09 here.

After flashing NeatROM...

1. Reboot or you may not reboot (I prefer reboot)

2. Setup phone (google accnt, etc)

3. Restart phone to recovery mode...

4. Flash GS2KernelWipeV2.09 (do not reboot)

5. Flash apolo

6. Reboot and and you're done...

Check about phone in settings to see your phone details.

Just wanna try which vesrion has the less battery drain. Coz while am at v5.5 and v5.6 my battery consumption is not that good. So I need to retest again v5.4.2. I see no big difference in the layout right now coz all mods have been flash to get the looks of 5.5 and 5.6...:cool:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Thanks for your assistance, you guys, and... gals...? :D

Hmm... I guess I have to flash 5.4.2 first... But just to be cool, gonna download the 5.6 also :eek:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
no problem mate. You're always welcome.

Just a tip also...

Hit thanks button on the bottom left of the post if you think it helped you....Some of our colleagues here need that to gain more thanks and to achieve a title I guess but am not sure...:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
I would, if I still can... :eek:

Sadly, XDA says to me, by default, that I had used my 8 Thanks (I guess prevention of Thanks Spamming...?), and have to wait tomorrow to use it again...

Who know?

How does the call recording function (record and delete)?

Thank you for answer.

Happy New Year everyone!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Coempi:
Push the record button at the start of the call. Recordings can be found under \Sounds (if I remember well). You can freely delete any files from there.

Hope I could help you.

Best regards, Coempi
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheGovernment:
AFAIK, to get XDA titles you must have a number of posts (eg RC).. so thanks doen't matter for those title... for the other ones (eg. RD) the committee will review your work on XDA and not on the posts. So in a way thanks isn't necessary for those who wants to achieve a title, but it's good to prevent from 'thanks' spamming.. which are completely meaningless in a majority of threads. :)

Hate this prohibition too, and because Neatrom family is as awesome as it is, i usually use those 8 thanks immediately after looking through it in the morning :p So that's why i use XDA's app for thanking, and maybe some answering for questions lying around :) And during this process i unfortunately miss thanking some very good posts in this thread :(

Oops getting OT here... Neatrom is awesome! :D

Hi Avirk,

Just flashed Blue Ginger 23 Toggles 5.5 on neatrom 5.6 (i Selected 23 toggles while 5.6 setup). FOR ME it is working perfectly. just 2 things went missing from the display seeting

Power button on SB ON/OFF Toggle Thanks to [MENTION=2174044]Many40[/MENTION]

Notification Panel Color Picker Thanks to [MENTION=2174044]Many40[/MENTION]

one more thing after flashing BG theme the phone was too hot and draining quickly (I'm using apolo 4.13 regular). The culprit is media scanner running at 28%. I'm just waiting to see if there is improvement or else will revert back to 5.6 without BG theme.

Just one quick question to Sale are you going to make Blue Ginger Theme updated version for 5.6
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
It depends what mod you flashed, if its rerlated to systemui.apk then it will otherwise you have to see if its related to framework-res.apk or any jar file. So just flashing the systemui.apk will not revert you back from that mod, the best thing is make a nandroid including preload before flash anything on your phone. :)

make nandroid including preload partition and flash the theme and let us know. And IMO it would work as not major changes than before. :)

I think you deleted the BadgeProvider.apk just pull it our from rom zip push in preload/symlink/system/app folder set permissions and then sysmlink the apk using root explorer to system/app folder.
