Hi iam a newbie here ... i tried 2.7 version ... i felt very happy with JB in my phone and the easiness i achieved in rooting and via CMW..

However iam back to Stock ICS as 1)No Radio 2)No music player 3)Cant backup the rom as it says "error generating md5 checksum " ... of course some said radio wont be in this version .. but i badly need it in my office work times :) ... other than that i find all working like a charm ..

---------- Post added at 11:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 PM ----------

ohhh i noticed 2.8 version is out here ... i saw the changelogs ....i cud not understand a thing considering as a newbie , can any1 say what it does in 2.8 ?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] grajesh83:
Thanks for the info .... iam not lazy :) just dono what to search .. checked spiritFM and is paid app will check out .. apollo music seems is not so good ...any other player thats good ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marcelo-cps:
Try xing player.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pablo216:
N7 Player is quite good! or Poweramp, those two are the best for me...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
Yes, are related, but also are just a minimum piece of the cake :D

No by default, you need search a mod to do that, take a look on the "Themes & Apps" forum.

Yes, it's normal.

Yes. Why the question? Maybe I miss something :eek:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] hooliganx:
BEAUTIFUL!!!

really ... the ROM is EXCELLENT!

no error or bug or crash or restarts. :D

the only thing that could improve is the consumer, because the battery is draining fast when compared with Dorimanx or Siyah.

but I know it takes a while to get the devs update their kernel's.

BAJEE11... THANKS! :D:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pelpa87:
You can edit built.prop and there u are
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Phyzicx:
I keep getting random no signals, the phone unblocks itself LOL... And obviously I wiped everything...

[Galaxy S II Android Development] grajesh83:
Thanks for the info on music player ... now how to solve that md5 checksum error while backing up the rom ? i tried searching and i find ppl saying abt md5 mismatch while restoring via CWM .. but i find this error while backup.

I was with a v2.7+gapps and kernel Siyah v4.1.5, i'm using RootBox since 1.x

When i try to set alarm on 2.8, a get a force close. "Unfortunately, clock has stopped"
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bajee11:
This is why:

Well seems like you might have to full wipe your device. Clock is working fine here for me.. Just wiped cache/dalvik.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] tenchi0205:
I had md5 mismatch during nandroid backup...and I did search/google-ing too also no proper solution on it

---------- Post added at 03:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:19 PM ----------

alarm is working fine here...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gorko122:
I think I've the same problem, if it occurs, I've no signal for a short time and after it I've to enter the SIM PIN again.

So you think I just need a matching RIL?

But if I use getRil to get the matching RIL, I'll loose HSPA+?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Cryptostasis:
Change dpi option

Thanks for the answer but let me reformulate me question:

Is there a change dpi option in this ROM so I can easy change the DPI because I started to like having a smaller dpi?

I don't want to edit built.prop by me self!

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tenchi0205:
I do have problem to re-enter the SIM PIN again after wakeup from screen lock...

I did getRIL matching my RIL...I still getting HSPA+ dun worry about it
[Galaxy S II Android Development] championc:
So what about people like me who have been prompted by GooManager on their phones to just go ahead and download the latest update ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kleinfeld:
System settings -> ROM Control -> General UI, scroll to the bottom ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kawadana:
Yes in rom control--> general ui at the bottom there is the option to change DPI

Edit: i'm arrived late ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chillpcs:
I was having a similar issue over several builds of rootbox, I tried various modems, several kernels, percussive maintenance, standing on chairs, different ROM's and in the end it was a warn out sim card causing the problem. I wedged and taped the sim card in until a replacement turned up and all is now working fine. 24 hours with no signal loss and counting.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Cryptostasis:
Thanks!

Your right it's to late! :fingers-crossed:

I already did it! I flashed and I found it!

Now I have problems with installing chrome. I get this ,,This app is incompatible with your Samsung GT-I9100."

I think that I need to install a multi-dpi store because I change dpi!

Every thing else is ok! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kawadana:
yes multy dpi will fix the issue ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pablo216:
The ROM comes with the kernel that works with the ROM. If people start flashing things around without reading, bajee11 shouldn´t be the one fixing these problems.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bajee11:
Well you had two options: Read the thread or Read Changelog in GooManager before upgrading. Was it that hard?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cool1007:
GooManager changelog reads "null" for me all the time from within the app. Just thought if letting you know.

Hi guys, sorry to post about this sim pin lock issue again but has anybody narrowed down what the actual problem is..? I had it with the official AOKP builds, but not on rootbox 2.7. However, it seems to have reappeared on 2.8. My RIL is matching so I'm not sure what's changed to cause it.. I'm not sure if bajee or anybody else has any other in depth knowledge..? TIA.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dani01c:
Is it normal that my phone freezes one a day? Im on v2.7 with dorimanx kernel. The phone always works perfectly fine but there is always this one time of the day that it crashes. It never gets slow or anything it just suddenly crashes. After I remove the battery and start it again it keeps on working fine.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] pablo216:
Do the memory leak test. Go to running apps and and start tapping on the top bar (can't seem to remember the name) repeatedly. You will see how the available RAM starts to decrease. So it is expected that during normal day use you will leak RAM and eventually your phone will need a reboot to sort it out.

If you want to avoid this then install 2.8 which has the issue fixed!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sepharite:
Probably memory leakage. There's an option in the AOKP, where you can automatically reboot the phone at a certain time. I reboot my phone at 1:30am every day, so it clears everything. Haven't gotten a crash ever.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dani01c:
Yep. Apparently its a memory leak. Thanks! I haven't installed v2.8 yet because of the issues with the kernels once siyah or dorimanx works on it I'll upgrade.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bajee11:
I'll never understand the users not upgrading to 2.8 just because you guys can't use siyah or dori. Is it because of you guys need BLN?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] msquared:
I think it's more a mental condition:p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dani01c:
Well. Yeah, BLN, Ex tweaks, battery life and performance! I really love having BLN I dont even have to wake the phone to know if I have a notification. With ex tweaks I make the audio louder. If with the cm kernel I can use ex tweaks than ill do it. With ex tweaks I can manage bln and the audio
[Galaxy S II Android Development] wilsons618:
I (somewhat) second this.

Not to say there's anything wrong with the rom itself, but for some reason I just can't get the same battery and performance with the stock kernel compared to Siyah.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marsaltito:
im with you on this! and i get better battery on stock then on "custom" kernel
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
Guys, everyone have his opinion about the performance, I think the post of @bajee it's a little related to the patience, the development it isn't easy, we know that Gokhan and Dorimanx are working on make compatible his kernels so, why don't update and enjoy the fixes about the Mali drivers a few days (or less) and then, when the other kernels be ready just flash it? After all almost all we're here expecting test some new things, or at least different, then, why if RootBox likes you don't give it a chance instead of complain about the no-boot issue?

This, of course it's IMO. If someone thinks that this is off topic, sorry, let's keep on topic.

Speech volume is barely audible in 2.8, for some reason it is not switching to external speaker.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shmic:
I just experience a serious problem.

In the middle of "viber" call, my phone shut down. I could not boot rom again, just after a "samsung screen" it goes black.

I was forced to install rom again. I did a full wipe, and still have a problem with alarm, again "force close" when try to set alarm.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chillpcs:
This has to be a CWM v6 related issue on the I9100, whilst performing a backup in recovery.

Generating md5 sum...

Error while generating md5 sum!

I had a fiddle around with a few other kernel's whilst trying to solve my phantom signal issue* using 2.6 & 2.7 and those kernels bundled with v5 builds of CWM all completed backups ending with successful md5 checks.

*it was a faulty sim.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cool1007:
CWM 6 (non touch) is giving this problem to a lot of people when doing backups. Perhaps @bajee can use another CWM that works fine doing nandroid backups?

Have you actually tried doing a restore from one of these failed md5 checksum backups? Just thought I would ask before I try, if the restore works then it should not be too much of an issue??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bennybaz:
hey,

I flashed 2.8 twice, including wipes and still - clock FC's when trying to create new Alarm.

What can I do? I really need this.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kawadana:
try to wipe dalvik cache and fixing permission. My clock and alarm on 2.8 works good
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Siemser:
Long time ago since using rootbox at ics-times coz I sticked to pure cm10.

Installed v2.8 yesterday and it's so smooth. Battery seems improved on this Rom against pure cm10 (for what I can say now).

Only disappointment is that u have to change dpi manually when turning on tablet mode or dual list view. But that's not the problem coz for me it's only something to play with and not daily usage. Or did I have had done cache and dalvik wipe after changing these settings? In the description was only reboot mentioned.

So. Will make a little review next week or so on my blog-page (only german language).

Nice work bajee :) keep ur head up
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tenchi0205:
md5 checksum fail in backup, restore also cant be done.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] millicent:
My flashing method is a bit different than the original thread's.

But it's always worked, and especially so ever since coming to rootbox.

Disclaimer : I didn't invent this; I just happened to come across it on one thread or another.

1. Wipe data/factory reset, optional, never needed between jb upgrades.

2. Wipe cache,

3. Wipe dalwik cache

4. Flash rom

5. Flash latest gapps for jb, optional, if you need it.

6. Fix permissions.

7. Reboot.

If later on you flash other packages such as gapps, only the last 2 steps are required, flash gapps, fix permissions, reboot.

Hope this helps on misbehaving systems apps, fc, etc.

Issues with 2.8

1) speech no longer emits from loud speaker, it comes out of ear speaker or whatever you want to call it.

2) nandroid backup does not work on S2 with CWM v6.0.1.4. (it has not worked since v6 was stuffed in your bundled kernel, so we had to use another kernel up to 2.7; and as you stated, the other kernels will not work with 2.8 yet because of the new smooth mali drivers).

other than, that this is a pretty damn awesome rom!

Well I keep having RILJ wakelocks, since 2.7 (now using 2.8). I've tried many different modems, even from the RIL matching thread etc, tried rebooting the phone in airplane mode.

Turn off google now and diasble latitude from settings. Otherwise it will keep sending location information to google now and that keeps the phone Awake.

By the way, there won't be a build 5 this week from AOKP since we're working on something bigger :)
