[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] awarbrick89:
Hey, I've been searching around and found a few posts on the subject (not here however) and I was wondering. I'm trying to add a boot sound to my device, its rooted, on Rogers stock ICS 4.0.4.

Now, heres where it gets fun for me, based on what I've found, there are sound files in the system/media and /etc folders. My phone has them in both places, in wav and ogg formats. They are only a few seconds in length, and silent.

So, I've clipped, converted, renamed, moved, replaced, multiple times in different formats just in case. And nothing, nada zip....

So am I missing something? Why won't the sound file I made play at boot? Does the stock kernel not support it?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] liquidzoo:
From what I'm seeing, it looks like it should be /system/media/PowerOn.wav

Remember, the linux file system is case sensitive. Did you name the file correctly?

I will keep looking, just in case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] awarbrick89:
Yup, I just checked and the file name is PowerOn.wav, and is located in system/media.

So now I'm really stumped :-(

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] awarbrick89:
It would seem that this phone wants the file in .ogg format, whew, that was alot of test reboots :-P

(sorry that I can't definitively say what fixed it, as I copied and pasted both formats in multiple locations, that's when it worked)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mindmajick:
Afaik- I doesn't even need to be in ogg format. Just needs the ogg extension.

Someone correct me if I am wrong though.

[LG Optimus 2x] Léo o2x:
Hello guys,

I have upgraded my o2x to a CM 7.2 version. I'm really happy of it, but I'm a little frustrated because it looks like if the cpu was not completely supported by the OS. In fact, when I go to the integrated cpu set menu, I can't push it because there's no freq proposed. So this morning I tried to score something interesting on quadrant -proud of my new OS aha- and only read a poor 1950... With the stock rom I was around 2600/2700. So I noticed a really low cpu score compared to a stock o2x. So here's my question, is CM 7.2 supporting tegra 2 processors? Is there some alternative ROM which could solve this problem?

Thank you all!
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
You need another kernel to be able to change that values.

And when you want a better benchmark score you should install a kernel which tweaks some i/o values as well - like ETANA.
[LG Optimus 2x] Léo o2x:
First of all thank you for answering! I'm just surprised because there's no gain at all, but what I want mostly is a smooth user experience, and a longer battery life.

Is that depending of the kernel and if it is, which one is the best for what I research?
[LG Optimus 2x] Smurf81:
Hi,

i use Etana since last year and it is the best for CM7/MIUI, you can find it here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1427646

One of my colleagues has purchased a new S III and the only thing he's not happy about it is the white text over black background on certain screens (specially the Email app)

Is there a quick and easy way of having black text over white background on email app (and others) ?

Hi folks...new guy here and happy to be amongst you.

My U8800 X5 was accessing the net through a USB cable to an Acer Aspire 4920 (on WIN7 Ultimate SP1) OK but now just wont do it.

Can you give me a checklist to work out how to get back on line.

Since installing Gingerbread 2.3.5 I have not been able to get online through wi-fi or bluetooth but USB was OK. All i want at the moment is to get online with a USB cable to the laptop.

Any advice is welcome.

And that one will neither been develop for S II in this news...
[Galaxy S II General] TheATHEiST:
You on crack?

How is this a dev topic?
[Galaxy S II General] m.kochan10:
No offense but this is just a third party website. They don't even mention the source of these rumors. Nothing has been stated by samsung so far so there's no need to cry. To be honest I don't think that 4.0.4 will be some revolutionary step forward and thus I don't understand why we shouldn't get this update.
[Galaxy S II General] clonednull:
Read some faqs, install custom 4.0.4 rom, find out you have bought nice hardware and not a phone ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Testraindrop:
Who cares?

They would f* it up anyway with touchwiz crap like they did with 4.0.3, AOSP and 4.1 all the way :cool:
[Galaxy S II General] bluefa1con:
i would call bs on this one
[Galaxy S II General] tugler:
Well I've installed Parandoid Android 1.5a and VK 5.1.2 in dual boot already, but CM/AOKP/AOSP roms don't work as flawlessly as sammy roms.

For example in CM & co roms auto brightness or gyro is broken. Also no FM (yeah, i know, ther is spirit FM...) and sensor assistance is working.

greets
[Galaxy S II General] m.kochan10:
I agree, auto brightness on CM/AOSP/AOKP roms is still far away from perfect, which makes our beloved and very dark S AMOLED+ practically unusable (outdoor) on sunny days.

Also Apex, Nova, etc don't measure up to TW Launcher in terms of smoothness.
[Galaxy S II General] jonnyhall1bmx1:
i just noticed this now :) people have been telling me for ages gs2 will get an official 4.0.4 rom but i guess not :/

pull your finger out your arse samsung, stop ****ing us about like you did with the 4.0.3 rom !!

[Galaxy S II General] Gorjess:
What's the point of upgrading to the newest version? It doesn't mean it's better either.. Other typical user outside the xda don't even care about rom updates.. I saw many people still running gingerbread on their S2.. If you had a perfect rom right now then why bothers?

Samsung and other companies always provides the best option for their devices..

That site has some misspells, not something I'd trust too...

Anyway, if Google is going to release Jelly Bean this week that means the SGS2 is still in the 18 months after launch time to receive updates, but that's up to Sammy.

it's very great to have 4.0.4 for SGS2, since it's not confirmed as a fact, i'll stay on already 4.0.4 CM9's.

Custom ROM always helping :D
[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
Very true. If you need updates then go for nexus. We have so many custom rom based on 4.04. There is no much difference.
[Galaxy S II General] dareas:
Yeah, the changes in 4.0.4 are minor (see Android version history) but these changes are actually fixes. I see no point in not getting them. I'm not saying that I trust that website, but I'm wondering how can Apple still can update their 3gs, but manufacturers who use Android in their phones can't update them with actually much better hardware than all iPhones to the latest OS? Is Android THAT heavy? This is shame, we buy top phones, get 2-3 updates and that's it, we have to buy a new phone if we want to use newest goodies. :sly:
[Galaxy S II General] kazi_rizwan:
Will 4.0.4 make my camera 12 megapixel ??? Will it have NFC ??? Will it increase my memory to 32 GB ???.... WTF !! NO !!

[Galaxy S II General] pacc:
It's all BS!

It's quite obvious that S2 will be updated at least to 4.0.4, it's still selling like crazy in many countries and still TOP5 of best smartphones.

Samsung officially never announced they would stop development, it's just a stupid site trying to get attention.
[Galaxy S II General] danielsf:
I asked sam mobile if they had any rumors about 4.0.4 for the i9100 a few days ago and they gave me this response:

I would believe them over a site I have never seen before, any day.
[Galaxy S II General] ecopy:
Absolutely! Otherwise, consumers would be disappointed a lot. You buy a brand new phone for a 1000USD (say, S3), and after a year of bug-hunting they say "no more we support this piece of sh!t"? I'd change the horse next time then, because products launched in the market these days are all too raw. Everybody rushes. And declaring no support in future is the same as killing these devices not born at all.
[Galaxy S II General] _AnAkIn_:
This.
[Galaxy S II General] dareas:
Actually what I saw on ios 6 presentation is that apple copies again from android and I heard rumors that iphone 5 will have NFC which was for first time introduced in gs3, so if I want the newest goodies I have to have an Android phone from last generation. Not iCrap.
[Galaxy S II General] ephraim:
Isn't NFC in some Android devices prior sgs3? Like GNex or Nexus S.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Yeah, also some Galaxy S II variables. But NFC on iPhone would be totally weird, hahahah. What would you need to do to get NFC working on iPhone? Don't know how the most locked phone would let you share things so quickly, and phone to phone...
[Galaxy S II General] ephraim:
They just wanna put it there because android has one. Like the notification drop down bar. They copied it and they say android is a thief(not the drop down bar but the other features or like the gnex lock screen which they sued google or samsung even though it's nowhere close to their lockscreen) . Lame. Lol. :D

Let's hope this will not turn into Apple vs. Android thread :) i have been angry to apple for a long time and i wan't to forget it. Being angry is the last thing in my mind right now *:thumbup:android rules:thumbup:* :)

[Galaxy S II General] androidkid311:
No way!!! Apex is the best launcher without a doubt!! Smashes ****ty tw :-). Regarding 4.0.4 I'm not surprised lol! They are only focused on the s3 now. Android is slacking regarding firmware updates! :(
[Galaxy S II General] :
Wow, can't argue with that... :D No offense but that's only your subjective opinion mate. Add some widgets, icons, apply live wallpaper and you'll see the difference. Custom launchers are seemingly faster but these are ugly stock launchers that are hw-accelerated, no matter if you like it or not. (I'm sorry I couldn't find any information about HW-acceleration on Apex or Nova. If there is somewhere...Please don't kill me but send me a link and I'd be more than happy to read it.) I like ICS launchers (actually I'm more Nova guy, I admit that scrolling effect is noticeably faster ;) but I prefer the type of home screen-scrolling provided by TW on last XWLPG - slower but smoother. (LG launcher on RootBox provides comparable experience.)

But this is not the right thread to discuss about variations of user experience in home screen scrolling, (not about differences in users' tastes either so EOT here ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Crescendo Xenomorph:
I said 4.0.3S

It makes sense to skip, no point in 4.0.4 now considering what 4.1 brings. :)

Yeah, I don't need no 4.0.4 since I watched a video comparison ICS vs JB....

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean works really fast & smooth like it's said with no frame drops. I want it badly ))) And that would be damn pity if Samsung doesn't release a 4.1 for SGS2. Do they have some supporting policy? How long a device would have updates since the product launch/stop?
[Galaxy S II General] GFXi0N:
They will stop supporting it when they feel so. I wouldn't be so surprised if they don't support 4.1 for SGSII.... They have been doing similar things in the past....
[Galaxy S II General] hikarugo:
Single core Nexus S will get JB. F*** yea Samsung if they don't give JB update to SGS 2 and telling us the same reason why SGS won't get ICS.

It looks like google's support for nexus s will still last long. So we will still have reasons to protest if samsung didn't give us OS updates
[Galaxy S II General] kilometers4:
Don't worry, I'm sure there's going to be lots of jb roms in no time :)

Why does it matter if they skip 4.0.4? If you want it, just download a rom. :)
[Galaxy S II General] ecopy:
SGS2 was only launched on May 2011, it's quite unfair to leave it unattended now. On the other hand there's no reason to maintain support for both 4.0.4 and 4.1 for every device because 4.1 is a direct successor of 4.0.4 and the only limitation for spreading it all over the range is hardware limitation.

4.0.4 !!!

We dont need 4.0.4,

we want JB (jelly bean) for Galaxy SII ^^

hopefully they will upgrade it,or else,why we have to buy samsung or htc phone,when Gnex get all those update!

if they don't bring JB to SII, my next phone will be Google Nexus,

because they will do the same thing to SIII next year,
[Galaxy S II General] ephraim:
Or better yet, keep you s2 until the next nexus comes out :)
[Galaxy S II General] DrunkFuX666:
I will either go with that option or wait for the next galaxy S series... possibly SIV... because the fact of the matter is , the S series tends to pack more a punch when it comes to pure hardware than the Nexus... while the Nexus has the advantage of the quickest updates ...

In all honesty if I'm buying a new phone and spending that money I'm gonna go for the better hardware, Not just to get quick software... because I DONT use stock firmware... never have and probably won't... and waiting a few months to get a firmware has never killed anyone...

Again the jump to a SIII from a SII just for a quad core and better screen is dumb... if I had a better camera I would still think about it... but a Galaxy Nexus with a sorry to say very poor 5mp camera... NOTE I'm not saying its bad because its 5mp and S2 is 8mp... iv used them both and getting a clear shot with a Nexus without blurring is quite a task... as compared to a S2 which is much better...

Anyway... kinda gone off topic... but depending on the next nexus specs... if its still got less horsepower and features than the S series... I'll stick to the S... I can wait for a firmware... but I can't wait for a better processor or SD expansion or better camera to magically develop into my inferior phone...
