Best combination for me

I found somewhat SLIM 2.4 somewhat slow/unstable with fluxxi kernel. Switched to Dream IRC kernel 2.74 and can say it is rock stable and snapy since that moment (using sleepy gov and SIO I/O scheduler along with CPU/GPU undervolting).

Never got better results with any other ROM/Kernel (I think I tried ALL of them).

The only thing that could be better would be if the sensor polling is fixed (to reduce CPU usage while idle), but it is a common CM bad behavior, really old and never fixed (CM/AOKP android system uses 10% CPU while idling, polling sensors, while any Samsung based ROM do not).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Prashanthme:
fluxi?? Its only for ICS did he make for JB also?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] m4psycho:
He's had it with JB for a while now. Where have you been? =p It's the kernel that comes with it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Prashanthme:
seriously i dint knew tat :P Well thats a great news,.. Fluxi with JB ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yupo72:
I've an issue on 2.4 (but also in 2.2), from System settings-Interface-Lock screen-Slider shortcuts, I edit some of the shorcuts but they are not saved and the edited point result empty in the lock screen as if it wasn't never configured....

I don't know if it has already a solution but I don't remember anything stated in the forum previously.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mr.Greg:
"Where have you been?" Like this kind of posts:D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BelugaHval:
As to the thank you button. I hit it. But didnt think you or anywone would give a **** :)

But let me just point out that, including me, there are thousands of people who are enjoying there device much more than they would otherwise. I tried all other ROMS. They are simply too bloated and full of crap and gives me too little free RAM. This one is PERFECT.

I'm donating as soon as i will be able to :) Out of money atm.

But dont you dare think that people are indifferent. Many of the questions in the threads might sound like people moaning. But i think most people are just curious/didn't know where else to go with their questions.

You have to remember that everyone here aren't experienced power users. There should be room for those people too.

I and, a lot of other people are really grateful for your work! Thanks! :)

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] krarvind:
Just to clarify, fluxi didn't compile one for JB, but i used his sources and Ktoonez's ramdisk to compile one for JB that comes packaged with slim bean. I am partial to fluxi kernel, hence that stays stock. Users can flash whatever they wish.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] m4psycho:
Clarification taken and noted!~ Once again, great job on making this ROM work! :)

1. CWM6 has an option to back in tar or blob format, I know it is quite annoying to default backup to blob. The reason I am asking is because I am testing between SlimBean and Insanity. The incompatibility between two CWM makes switching from two backups not very direct...:victory:

2. Flashed XXKG6 modem, it seems OK now. Yeah!:good:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fronti90:
You have to hit the save button on the bottom right corner ;) in case you did this (because I didn't saw it until I set the shortcuts the 5. Time xD ) I would recommend a wipe cache/dalvik.vm.heapsize and fix permissions and in case this doesn't help a complete reflash with format system and wipe data.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] flydutch:
Anyone has a solution for this?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yupo72:
I've hit the save button, I've wiped cache and dalvik, fixed permissions (don't understand this part vm.heapsize ) but still nothing....I'll proceed with a brand new flashing but I always use that method so why it happens??? :eek:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
TIL.... that:

1. I shouldn't attempt to do clever computery things like download and compile AndroidOS and/or custom ROMS from sources at 2am when I can't sleep because I have a bad cold and have been sleeping all day and my brain is all fuzzy and it suddenly seems like a good idea... :silly:

2. I shouldn't attempt to download and compile a custom ROM from sources when the owner of said repo is busy making changes to the repo structure which cause the download to break and then corrupt the repo in a way that I can't fix without deleting and starting from scratch :rolleyes:

Soooooo 26gigs of downloads later... I only have about 40% of the AOSP and SlimBean repos downloaded!! :eek:

Hopefully my flatmates don't mind that we now only have 15gigs of downloads (out of 120) left until the 25th :P
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
I've never used USB tethering and it's possible no one else has actually tried it yet but if someone has I'm sure they'll reply to you when they get the chance.

I've never had any issues with any of the Slim Bean versions and the lockscreen shortcuts saving they just work as expected. I think fronti is talking about just wiping dalvik cache. If it doesn't work after a full wipe then something's wrong your end unfortunately as no one has reported this issue. If you can find a way to reproduce it so I can check then by all means let us know.

Downloading any source isn't a small job but unlimited broadband is the way to go ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Yeah... I kinda skipped all the warnings in the various posts/guides about how big the source actually is... :D

But I figured that ~10gigs would be fine... it was just the fact that the download got borked and I had to do it a couple of times that was the real killer...

crazy that something that ends up at a couple of hundred megs... starts out at 10+gigs!! :eek:

Nevermind, I'll get it sorted eventually... and then I can have all the goodness that is SlimBean with my "less notification sounds" ability (VERY necessary when GF starts chatting on GTalk and I'm playing BF3 ;))

Issues with MMS?

Is anyone else having problems with 2.3 and 2.4 with regards to installation - I've had to stay on 2.2 because of a number of problems - the CWM app disappears from the menu, but more importantly, when i try to send MMS messages, the messaging app FCs - and i've tried handscent and go sms with exactly the same problem. checked all the MMS settings as well! I've even installed the new Siyah kernel on it to see if that helps, but to no avail.

I also found that on 2.4 i was getting a lot more FCs - and couldn't set up exchange mail at all without constant FCs. Gone back to 2.2 this morning - everything working perfectly again?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HANDSY:
Initial release used Siyah kernel latest release uses a fluxi based kernel hence no CWM app. The MMS issue is a common one among custom ROMs and can be easily by past using apps such as whatsapp for picture sending /receiving.

My wifi is just broken. Can't connect to anything. Is it kernel related?

Envoyé depuis mon GT-I9100 avec Tapatalk
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HANDSY:
Could be as the kernel does control the wifi. Have you used any tweets or made any changes before it stopped working?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mbutandola:
Thanks. Didn't do anything. Was all stock. Have just flashed dorimanx to see if it's the kernel causing issues but still no luck.

Hello.

1)Whenever I listen to music,after some time there's a "hiccup" sound And the music stops.Anyone else faces this?

This didn't happen on my self kanged aosp jb ROM.

2)Also there's a case of music duplicacy with the aosp .music player included .

Logs are pretty normal.

Peace
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HANDSY:
Mmm when fault finding it's best to start with easiest checks first. Is your wifi working and on correct frequency. Do you have other devices that the wifi is working on. Don't mean to insult your intelligence just eliminating the possibilities.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yupo72:
Well, I've re-flashed after wipes and format system but it doesn't work, it's a pity but nothing that keep me awake in the night so it doesn't matter....but it's strange!!! :p

Reproduce? I reach the shortcut settings and modify the existing (Camera, Google) with mine (direct dial, direct message), save, go back to home.....but when I unlock it, the only option appearing is the unlock on the right.

I've also tried to restore the default settings and add one customised to an empty space.....no way, it does not shows
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kufikugel:
update out! maybe someone want to help to test? Last version didn't take any effect *gg*
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
I know it's crazy, I couldn't quite believe it when I read you need in the region of 25GB (recommended) free for a single build but I don't plan on doing any more than this 1 build so that doesn't matter too much.

I stopped using the CWM app after I moved from GB ROM's. It was only ever fully designed fro CF-Root kernels even though some kernel devs make their kernel compatible it's not worth using, just boot into CWM and do things the normal way it's not too difficult, takes no time at all and I tend to have no issues with my flashes doing it that way. It's not supported in Fluxi as xxTweaker has it's own ROM Manager section which is just as easy for lazy people :p

No FC's at all with any of the JB versions so far. Did you restore apps and data via titanium backup by any chance? I'd recommend not to but others have had it work. Maybe you need to just bite the bullet and do a full wipe install just to check it's nothing in your setup causing the issues which in most cases it will be. I'm yet to send any MMS but if I do I'll check it out.

I seem to be saying this a lot but no issue with WiFi here on stock setup. Have you tried flashing Siyah? I believe there may be differences in the WiFi drivers installed (not sure if krarvind changed this) between what Fluxi uses and other kernels. I think Siyah overwrites these modules when you flash it so give that a try if you haven't already. I've never used Dorimanx so wouldn't know if that flashes the WiFi modules or not.

I had this too with the stock music app when I forgot to delete that app but normally always remove it before flashing and use Apollo as don't get the random stoppages and only the very rare hiccup which is barely noticeable. Same goes for the duplication, I'd say just remove the stock music app as it's crap anyway.

Now that you mention which apps you're trying to use I'm pretty sure I've read elsewhere that the direct dial/message shortcuts are still not working correctly. If you get a chance it might be worth trying CM10 to see if the issue is there too. I've never used them so never tested them. Just to verify it's these apps can you just stick any app like phone or MMS to the locksreen as I use these which definitely work.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] m4psycho:
I noticed that when I had the siyah kernel the gapless playback didn't work with poweramp. That might have been due to a previous version of slimbean too but not 100% sure. I'm currently on the latest version of dorimanx and it's smooth as butter. You might want to try that?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mightyi:
Cheers Handsy. Not too bothered about no CWM app to be hones t- just use it the normal way through a reboot. The MMS one is the real pain - can't believe this is still hanging around considering it was there in CM9 as well and noone seems to have a solution to fix it! Don't understand why it works on standard ROMS, and version 2.2 of this ROM, but just fails on 2.3/2.4? I wouldn't be so bothered if it wasn't for needing to be able to send MMS sometimes for work etc, and WhatsApp isn't really the solution for my requirements (even though i can understand why you suggested it!).

I've also noticed that when i try and do a full wipe to try and stop the FCs and other weird behaviour, i do a factory reset/data wipe/wipe cache and davlik cache - even tried formatting /system before an install - the phone is STILL retaining some settings (ie the wallpaper etc) - how?!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HANDSY:
I'm no expert by any stretch of the imagination and the only difference is can think of is that I wiped my sd card so I had factory fresh phone to install on. How are you restoring your apps after a reset?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tommy paradise:
how can i change the screen resolution?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kufikugel:

Hi I have been using this ROM for a few weeks now and it has become my ROM of choice :). Big thanks to all the Devs involved.

I have noticed two things and would like to know if anyone has the same issues as I cannot find any info regarding it in this thread.

1) "Show widgets before unlock" does not work for me.

2) In "Profiles" the Lock screen mode can be set to "Insecure" but it does not work (works in CM9). Option for "Disabled" works but doesn't when set as insecure. It simply uses the default lock mode (PIN in my case). Setting as insecure is handy for a home profile.

If these are known issues, forgive me but I did search and didn't find anything.

RILJ wakelocks

Anyone having problems of RILJ wakelocks during idle time? This is just killing my battery life and i am seeing a lot of these RILJ wakelocks in 2.4 JB. Never had these on slim ICS. Is this ROM or Kernel related? Searched through XDA but no permanent solution found. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yupo72:
Absolutely so....I've just experienced that some of the shortcuts works, others not.....Not a big problem.

Just to continue with small issues :p I've "lose" the keys backlight but the option is on in galaxy S II settings-touchkeys....where else have I to enable them?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mightyi:
@HANDSY I'm not restoring my apps except through play store - installing them again. I don't have any games or apps that are critical to keep any settings - and i always think that a new ROM needs a fresh start! Coming from an IT background, i've long since realised that the best option is a fresh install(!) but it doesn't seem too happy at the moment even after doing this!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Dr Zoidberg:
Yes, many people are suffering bad RILJ wakelocks. It's a JB thing and not caused by Slim. In my case, whenever I stayed in one location, the phone slept really well, but whenever I went for a drive, the phone would stay awake continuously and the battery was dead within 5 hours. They only way to fix it (temporarily) was to activate airplane mode, shut down, remove the battery (30 seconds), replace, restart and exit airplane mode.

The issue was a show-stopper for me since my battery would suddenly drain without warning, so I have gone back to Slim ICS. Problem does not exist there.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mbutandola:
Thanks. Will try Siyah then.

Hi all! I have a little problem with this ROM: first, when I close the camera app the flash turns on for about a second (also happens with Instagram, FxCamera, etc.) But now suddenly the app disappeared... is this normal? In the aplications adm is not there! Thank you very much
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] LMBBananaJoe:
Maybe you should try the app GetRil and tell if it fixed the problem.

I use LQ6 modem and LQB RIL from codeworkx and have not had any problems yet.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Dr Zoidberg:
I tried getril and discovered a mismatch, but even after using the RIL, the wakelock issue was still really bad. I'm on LQ6 as well.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sageman70:
Anybody had any luck with the RTL additional fonts fix? It did not work for me. When I open a page in Arabic, it still displays as disconnected characters.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
The flash coming on has been in all AOSP ROM's from ICS not just this one so I don't even think of it as an issue because it's not, you just need to get used to it. No idea why your app's disappeared that can only have something to do with your setup. When looking in Settings -> Applications, you are looking for "Gallery" aren't you as it's not called "Camera" due to them both being integrated now but they do have their own icons in the app drawer? Easiest way to get it back if it is gone is to take Gallery2.apk from the ROM zip and then put it in /system/app and set permissions to rw-r--r-- using root explorer or similar.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] roddem:
The ROM worked really good for a few days. Then started showing lags and delay. Maybe future updates make it near perfect like the ICS one.

Just tested and you're right so my advice would be don't use it for now as I never use it which is why I've never noticed it. Just clear data from Gallery and stick to the touchscreen for now until a work around or fix is found.

I've updated the guide anomalies section with this and the face effects causing FC.

Not sure why I can't download the ROM through the OTA though.

Don't have a problem downloading add-ons though...Not a big deal since I just download it from the website but does anyone else experience that too?
