Guys

I am stuck in a bootloop after flashing this on my S2 i9100 (International) running CM 10.1 and stock kernel.

Flashed via ODIN and got "Pass" message but the phone got stuck in a boot loop. :( Repeated the ODIN flash process twice already but no results.

Any solutions?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II General] Freedomalfa:
go in recovery and wipe data and cache and will boot,stock recovery i mean
[Galaxy S II General] javigh:
Restart into recovery and wipe everything. It should work. But try to use the search function ;)
[Galaxy S II General] mattyboyo:
It's showing you what bits of the wallpaper will be used in portrait and landscape. My nexus 7 does the same thing. What homescreen does it default to? On the nexus 7 it's the middle one so the smaller boxes are the default homescreen, but I don't know if the SGS2 now defaults to the middle screen or the first one.
[Galaxy S II General] Apoorva Mishra:
Thanks. Excitement I guess. It worked fine.

Yeah, Search is the magic word. :)

Hej folks,

this is my first post here, found lot helpfully information on XDA... so thanks to all.

I just want to ask if i want change from leaked version of JB (XXLSJ) to the official spain (I9100XWLS8_I9100XXLS8_I9100FOPLS3_FOP), do i need to factory wipe data/cache or i can just overwrite with ODIN and after that flash kernel?

Cuz i did that overwrite and noticed that the LS8 version is working lagy when slowly scrolling tabs, pictures,webpages and whatever is scrollible. And also when i look at battery stats, wifi is all the time drain battery although i set at wifi advanced settings "never" to the option "keep wifi on during sleep", so wifi should be off when screen is locked?

PS: Smart stay is also not working

Kernel is: PhilZ-cwm6 v4.00-b22 with CWM 6.0.2.7 XXLS8-FOP

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II General] arsalanaly:
after flash root your phone clean all your cache ... wipe your data... i hope it would fixed your problem........ i'm using from last 30 hrs haven't face any problem yet... everything seem working awesome and better than leaked version...

I didn't see anyone comment, so I'll just ask. Has anybody tried the Camera? Is it any faster than ICS, better quality, more features? What are the differences?
[Galaxy S II General] javigh:
Mmm, it makes sense, buy TouchWiz doesn't have portrait mode. I have auto-rotation enabled and I can rotate my phone all I want that it doesn't going to change the home screen. So, at the end I cannot have a 480x800 image as wallpaper.

By the way, I just had my first FC. If I tap on Settings->Security->Remote Controls/"SIM change Alert", it stops for a few seconds and then "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped". I have rebooted it but it doesn't seem to help.

MODEM

Does LS8 have the same issue with the RIL ? and can I use my modem UGLD3 ? just wondering because with the leak LD3 gave me superior battery life than LS6,

Im in Canada using the Bell Network.

Thanks for any help :)
[Galaxy S II General] Da Fig:
Hi there,

I don't know if this will help but I installed the LD3 modem (I'm with Virgin), but it doesn't seem to improve the battery life, I have lost 25% in 3h with very light use (wifi on and connected all the time). Does this sound like a good battery life?

I'm also experiencing some kind of lagging or "flickering" (I'm not sure if this make sense) while scrolling like someone stated a few posts back. I have rooted mine not using the Philz method, but the CWM/Busybox one (no Kernel, I think), and I did the wiping and cache cleaning, but no luck. My guess is that the culprit of this "lagging" is the same for the battery life, but not sure who it is.

I'm trying to sound knowledgeable here, but actually I don't have any clue about all that Kernel/Modem/CSC jargon, I just search and follow instructions here in XDA, so I apologize if this doesn't make sense. Hehehe, I'm trying, but there are too many methods and files, and ROMs, and, and and that I get lost in the end.

If anyone solves the lagging problem, please post.

Cheers,

Da Fig

EDIT: By the way, I didn't use the RIL combination, somewhere was stated that Jellybean is still ot compatible with RIF or something like that, maybe that's the problem with the battery life, I should have tried the modem that came with the JB ROM before changing it.

I bought a free SGS2, but after installing this rom, the phone is asking for a sim unlock code.

Is it possible to solve this issue without rooting? If not, can I use rooting process for the leaked JB? Or there is one for this ROM?

Thank you.

Otherwise this ROM is incredibly fast and cool! :D

Let's flash to learn Chinese
[Galaxy S II General] FierceAllegiance:
Sorry, maybe I didn't express myself correctly, english is not my first language, here is what I meant

It doesn't matter if you pick Small, Normal, Large, or Huge font size on configs, unlike the menus and stuff, the notification font size always stays the same, but it shouldn't right?

The notification fonts should scale with everything else, but instead they look huge all the time, only 4 active notifications use the entire screen!

Also, sometimes the text looks so big it doesn't fit the notification box (like you can see on the first ongoing notification on my screenshot)

(By the way, I can't pinch to zoom that weather notification like you do on SMS, emails, etc..)

I really think this is a bug because on my brothers SII (CyanogenMod Jelly Bean) when I change the font size on the configs, the notification also scales, that and the fact that not even the Large font over there looks as big as this one we can't change..
[Galaxy S II General] gastonw:
Weird size you got there cara.

Might have to revert the phone back to ICS.

[Galaxy S II General] egps2:
Hey guys running LS8 has been mostly smooth other than when the media scanner decides to go crazy and after an hour of tests I realised it's not media scanner's fault but the stock gallery app! If you freeze/disable the stock gallery app then media scanner works fine and you can use something like QuickPic instead without the issues of having a disabled media scanner. Only problems are that you can only use the built in wallpaper as a lock screen background and can't open photos from the cameraapp.

Ps I tried clearing data on all the relevant apps (media scanner, gallery and their sub-apps) but every time I take a photo the media scanner uses almost full cpu usage for 5-10 minutes, draining battery and causing freezes. With stock gallery disabled everything is much more stable so far!

Just thought I would share my experience in case it helped anyone :)

Re: ***[OFFICIAL] JellyBean 4.1 Discussion thread [XWLS8]***

Depending on what you call good battery life, normal usage doesn't last that long . I'm on note ii and i still take my charger with me. As i listen to music, messaging and being online with Tapatalk. It's a matter of fact how you use the phone not only how the rom is. Ofc it do matter if the rom have some extra tweaks enabled that will help the battery to last longer.

It's the usage that mostly matters :D

I don't recall that the phone sucks but battery isn't as good as i want it to :D

Ofc i use GMD S Pen Gesture app as it's a must :D

Just to mention i charged it until 09.30 am :eek:

You get 2 options with this ROM:

2) WITHOUT media scanner issue.

1) fixable but annoying.

2) looking at a great battery life.

I didn't get it on the leak, now with ls8 I got it. On sunday, with my hangover I'm gonna re-flash this ROM till it bricks (so media scanner won't prevail).

I have the 4.1.2 XWLS8 rom for 3 days and did 2 full charges. I'm using the 2000 MAh original Samsung battery.

I have no battery drain whatsoever. After full charge and phone left on stand-by (with wifi on, 3G off, sync on but only 1 e-mail active and manual update on weather widget) overnight for 7 hours the battery was 100% in the morning. No bugs or crashes till now - stock rom / modem / kernel

- Bright screen - to the top.

- gps - on

- bluetooth - on

- rotate - on

- sync - on

- helping people on q&a so dont wait for the batter to drain - on

that's pretty much it, and now I'm on 21 after typing this down.

[Galaxy S II General] egps2:
I have no idea why stock gallery app is causing this issue (seemingly) but the media scanning issue is completely gone if the app is frozen. The media scanner went crazy every time a file was changed/added etc. E.g. I would take a single photo and the scanner would run for 5 minutes going crazy! Once the stock gallery was frozen I could take all the photos I wanted and the media scanner had no issues at all and would stop almost instantly. Like I said I tried clearing data etc but freezing it was the only thing that stopped the massive drain from media scanner running almost constantly. I'm just so glad I thought of trying the gallery app as it didn't come up in any stats etc

I'm yet to try this but I will soon, thank you! It seems this may help as I have over 1500 photos and each uses the '_' character which seems to be part of the problem in many instances which is why they must target it. Ps I can't seem to find the download link and only found instructions to apply the fix manually. If you have access to it easily I would highly appreciate a link! I am using stock kernel with stock recover right now though.

Yes it does still scan and seemed to be doing a thorough scan very frequently but this was mitigated almost entirely when gallery was disabled! I am no expert at all but my only guess is that the large number of photos I have taken may make this issue much worse as they all contain the problematic underscore wildcard!
