So that is a stock GB ROM or ICS upgraded ROM? That you then rooted (I guess since you have CWM this is the case) using odin to flash and probably chainfire kernel or something similar to get root access? Did you use triangle away app (just trying to see history that's all)?

Oh and I reset all extweaks or stweaks settings and removed init.d scripts to make sure I had no issues before I flash any new ROM. I guess you didn't have these with stock ROM and root kernel?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] frenzyboi:
It's stock ICS rom. I rooted using this method at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1501719 and had root access.

I'm new to Samsung S2 as I'm just helping my friend flash a new rom.

What I would do is download Siyah tar file and Flash it via Odin. Then boot the phone to recovery and full wipe the phone. Wipe cache and dalvik. Install rom install GAPPS fix permissions reboot. You should be good to go

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] frenzyboi:
I can't really do a full wipe. It always reboots by itself while "Formatting /data".

Is there any way to revert everything back to stock rom itself? Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Nos_20:
Get Siyah kernel from here http://www.gokhanmoral.com/

Make sure you get the S2 5.01 kernel in .tar format and flash it through Odin. Once done the phone should restart. Turn it off and hold vol up, home and power to reboot into cwm recovery.

From there you should be able to full wipe with no issue.

Battery issues with 2.54

SGS2, paranoidandroid 2:54

Kernel: original paranoidandroid of 2.54 or Kernel_Dorimanx-V5.92.

Please can someone help me.

My battery is very fast empty 2-3 hours = 0%.

Sometimes she goes 2-3 hours, and then 30 minutes it is set to 0

Also had sleep to death (off). After turning I still had enough power.

With the apps that I had before I had no problems so far. Only after the update at 2.54 I have problems.

Even after I went back to 2.52 I have the problems.

I've done factory reset and everything - preload, formatted devlik.

I have also tried Kernel_Dorimanx-V5.92. Still have the same problems.

I'm not sure what it can be.

Thanks for your help.

Please excuse me for my English. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lyndonguti:

Guys,

been having a problem with my SGS2 for ages I thought it was the phone or simcard but I've got a new simcard and new phone and its exactly the same

Basically every 15-20 minutes the phone rejects my simcard and wants me to keep entering my pin code

Stats:

Samsung Galaxy S2 (ive tried two phones now)

Paranoid Android 2.54

Kernel: Standard one

Baseband: 19100XXKDJ

its really doing my head in now so much that i got hold of another phone and this one is exactly the same
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pratici:
Try the Siyah 5.0.1 alot better of dorimanx for battery drain.

regards
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Filgaliel:
I think that is a matter of opinion.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] malhor:
Have you tried the basis :

From recovery :

1-Full wipe : format system + format data / factory reset + wipe cache and dalvik

2- Install ROM

3- optional : install kernel (siyah 5.01 or latest dorimax (7.26 or is it .29 at the time I write :P)

4- fix permissions

5- reboot

You will have a clean installation. Try it a few days without tweaking it extensively so it can stabilize itself.

If battery is good, start reinstalling your apps (preferably one by one just to check the drain was not caused by one of them).

You can not use Dorimanx 5.92 on newest Jellybean (Paranoid 2.54), as far as I know. It has to be one of the 7.x versions because of driver issues/changes.

So, something is wrong with your storry, bro'.

Anyway, go for newest Dorimanx or Siyah and everything should be fine.

Battery issues with 2.54

Thanks all.

Today I tested a bit. I'm not satisfied.

I will test the long solution (one app at a time).

Once I get new information, I will inform you.

It need some time (2-3 days) to determine where the problem is and get more infromations.

Does anyone know what the best Modem is that I can use with the current ROM as I can't get a decent signal practically anywhere with mine at the moment even though I'm always in decent well-built areas where there shouldn't be a problem getting a signal.

My GSII is on Vodafone UK if that's any help.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] adrok76:
Yeah, I was having problems in and around Manchester connection is there, but download is so slow it doesn't bother!!

I flashed a new modem baseband BVLP7, tried it for 2 days and it does seem better, give it a try it is recommended for UK use.

You can find the zip which includes compatible RIL here

Note that the RIL is for specific versions like ICS. So it won't work for PA which is on Jellybean.

Try BVLP7 as suggested, or try XXKH3.

Just installed fresh but the android keyboard keeps crashing. I'm unable to connect to my wireless or play store. Also, the physical "home" button on the device does nothing.

Could be first media scan. Disable that and check, if it helps.

It can not be a fault of the rom itself, otherwise all of us would experience it.

Did u flash the latest JB Gapps? Coz I also did that and I had the same problem as you, I first thought it was a problem with the ROM itself, so I tried another ROM just to check and I reflashed the same JB Apps (30/11/2012) I think, and again keyboard crashing and giving me FC every 5 seconds... So, I suggest u to try with another pack of JB apps, for instance, I flashed the JB apps (27/07/2012) and everything has worked well so far!

Strange ... Best practise

Hi all,

Just for reference, got a "strange" behavior yesterday evening,

- I used the phone to send an mms battery was at 51%, switch the screen off and put the phone on the table.

- Two hours later... surprise ! The phone is off... no way it will comes to life....

- Connect it to the charger, the phone was completly empty...

- Wait ten minutes for the battery to took some current....

- It start and stay stuck on the "android" logo...

Clearing settings for kernel, dalvik, cache .. etc does nothing... only a nandroid restore was able to solve the problem...

I do not really know what was the problem, was not having enought time to try to get infos throught adb.

So best practises : Nandroid Backup PLUS titanium backup every day for important things (mms/sms; phone log) PLUS titanium every two days for datas / news version... this way and in the worst case you loose one day of mms/sms or two days of application data...

This is very strange. I only have this problems when I update kernels ( in a bad flash ) or when I update my ROM.

On your logcat you see any information about this problem ? I believe you had problem with one of your filesystems in a SOD or other thing.

Bye man.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Honusnap:
Well .. as i said i've restored my Nandroid so i can't check the logcat anymore. I'm on 2.54 since the beginning and aexperienced this king of mega battery drain one time, but without the "not be able to restart after charged"...

Not experiencing SOD in general, the only thing that i get from times to times are ril crash (ones every two weeks)... so the phone was really stable. I just post this as a reference for other people that would get the same behavior ... and to say that backup ARE important... :D

Seems like, i will put some candles around the phone during the next charge, perhaps this will solve the problem .. ;)

Same thing here, already posted about this bug two weeks ago. Today, it's happening once again, massive battery drain with charger plugged in although it says unplugged....

This is not exactly the same behavior than i met, the charger was not plugged in when the phone goes from 51% to 0% in less than two hours. Since i've just met this problem one time, it do not really bother me.

4.2 will certainly comes, but even when out we'll have to wait till it is really stable... I'm happy with 2.54, but will certainly try a Samy rom in one or two weeks to see how it goes. :D

Fixing permissions happen automatically after flashing my kernel, but I can do it again, of course. I doubt the success though.

Can someone answer with a PERMANENT solution

Hi all,

I don't want to sound like a noob because if I do you all *might* ignore me.

So let's get on with it. . .

previously I had problems of missing Camera appp in app drawer and is only accessible via lock screen. I fixed that using the latest GApps -I think this has nothing to do with the problem but I just want to give a background.

Now my problem is the front facing camera, I can use it for video calls and other activities except taking a picture, sometimes it takes pictures, sometimes not and shows me an error. After showing the error, I checked the camera photos and there are pictures taken with nothing but a grey solid color. I checked it on my computer and when I try to open it, it says "file is empty".

Can someone give me a link for a fix, or any guide or tutorial(s) for a workaround for the camera?

I tried the following:

Clear Camera app data and cache - take a picture but the next time I take pictures, it shows the error again and I need to clear data again just to take another photo using the front facing camera

Clear dalvik-cache - same thing but causes another problem; Apollo Force Closes. Need to clear app data for both app now. :(

Re-flash PA - tried many times, still the same thing. Flashed after clearing everything I can clear in CWM and I also deleted internal memory storage and removed EXT partition so it is a clean flash.

So if anyone out here who knows the fix for this, I look forward for your reply.

Thanks,

Carl
