That's exactly it, all you have to do is literally open up GNow and toggle it to off and you'll see your battery stabilise. I turn it off as you don't actually have to freeze it or remove it as with a lot of battery draining apps. This way I can always come back to it and use it should I feel lazy enough to not want to type and just ask it a question :p

Hi,

thanks for one of best rom!

But please,

could you implement PDROID???

This would realy realy cool!!

Thanks

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] r0ot5:
Just flash 2.6, running smoothly right now but I have an issue with the volume since 2.5.

When I get a sms notification (also HeyTell message) the sound is really low, if I play with the volume then it come's back to normal but when the next notification comes in it's the same issue, volume seems to drop by itself.

anyone else experiencing this issue?

I'm running 2.6 + FLUXI 3.0.37.

regards,

r0ot5
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Wow you guys are keen you don't even wait for krarvind to post about the new release :p

I don't seem to have any issue with notification sounds, it just plays at the same volume all the time so not sure what could be causing that for you.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] krarvind:
Well boys/girls. 2.6 compiled by AvRS is out. He becomes the compiler/maintainer for 9100
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] r0ot5:
When I flash does it format the /system?

Maybe I should try this next for my sound issue?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] marikamonteleone:
Krarvind hello pleasure. really good rom the best, to be 100% I would say that missing call recording. more toggles the notification aokp. I ask if you implement these features in the next version? hello thanks

I attached pdroid patch for 2.6, works fine here

you can patch your own zip by using autopatcher (cm10 patch), there is a windows gui which works now with slimrom too

after patching you can install pdroid apk
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ezuk:
I just installed 2.6 and am pretty happy with it, but Wi-Fi seems to be turning off sporadically. Any idea what could be causing this?

Edit: I also realized the camera freezes whenever I try to take a picture! This doesn't happen if ifirst run the gallery app, though. This is pretty bad... any help would be appreciated.

Otherwise, the ROM feels lightweight and responsive - thank you!

When do U plan to made the new version of Your Tom with memory fix ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] switchgott:
Question!

Pdroid Gui:

I use the gui, but for slimroms, which parameter i have to set???

Cm10 ??

AOSP-JB???
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
It's official! My first working compile being used by everyone :D :victory:

Yeah whenever you flash a new version of Slim Bean it formats /system to try minimise issues. Give it a go and us know.

Call recording will never be implemented as stock same as in CM10 as there's a number of countries where this isn't deemed legal. It's not a stock AOSP feature either so if you want it you'll have to use a third party app. More toggles aren't required, we only include the main ones as otherwise it becomes more gimmicky and too much like AOKP which is not what this ROM is, it's aimed at being a "Slim" ROM with key features still included.

I tested the camera before we released it and have no freezing issues and solid WiFi which you seemed to have sorted anyway.

All depends on when it's officially merged as we want to rule out what we believe to be the issue and this is the best way.

I'd say try with AOSP first and then CM10 as Slim is AOSP based with CM10 parts and I don't use PDroid so no idea what it looks for.

Build quality

Dear AvRS.

Congratulation on becoming the new maintainer/compiler for sgs2.

This should not be understood negatively, but are you just as qualified as compiling the release as kravind is.

I am not saying this in a bad way, just curious if he has learned you everything you need to know in order to compile the exact "same way" he has done so far.

You made your first build not so long time ago, therefore I'm just a little sceptic thats all!!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] envying:
Just a question here, can I modify those Zip files if I don't need some of the apk's?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] quijote1:
Well, the proof is in the pudding - and his ROM works great. I can't find anything out of place - everything works fine - and in a young JB rom, that is a compliment.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CanadaJim:
You can remove apks, yes. I have read that AvRS does it all the time! ;)

How can I disable the backlight of the hardware buttons in version 2.6 (standard kernel)?

Settings / device options / touchkeys doesn't work (never worked) for me ;)

That setting should actually be all you need to disable it, however you can disable it with the kernel app, depending on which kernel you are using.

Dogs tv out work with Slimbean?

---------- Post added at 05:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:38 PM ----------

Does tv out work with Slimbean?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
:( I'm heartbroken :(

Only joking of course :p I don't see it as a negative at all and I've always been the same as I've never flashed a ROM that's not from a known dev or not in the original development section. Just to let you know though all I'm doing is actually compiling it which means typing the command to sync to the Slim ROM repo and then build the ROM, I don't any of the physical coding/merging as that's done by krarvind at source. The benefits of me compiling along with the rest of the testers/team that compile for other devices is that it's more efficient as krarvind doesn't have to spend hours compiling each one himself. In turn this benefits the users as we all test our builds ourselves and have other testers help which means the release gets out quicker to you all.

Just because I'm compiling it's no different to krarvind doing it. Krarvind and I did share some of the work testing out the memory fix where I actually made some modifications but this wasn't successful as I posted a few pages back before the release so we went back to the source build. I've also been compiling and testing all versions since 2.4 on my own phone so I know they work just as well we just decided 2.6 was when mine would be used.

I can confirm Jim's read right as I do this all the time so I can have things to my liking. I did notice though that for some reason on Linux Mint I could add/remove apk's without an issue but on Win 7 using 7-zip it told me of some duplicate files. If you get this go to /system/etc and delete the folder terminfo as that's what I've been doing as doesn't affect anything but only do it if you get the duplicate file error.

I posted a few pages back before the release went out to say there will be no memory leak fix in 2.6 just so those looking for it were fully aware.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yupo72:
Tried the update many times but PDroid never appeared, the one in the play store isn't supported by S II :confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Last I heard it doesn't work for any AOSP ROM on the S2. I've not got a cable anyway and therefore delete the TVout.apk otherwise it's needlessly running in the background.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ajayfafu:
I seem to having problem with LPS modem in this ROM....I also had it with 2.5 version...

the phone data disables on its own after keeping it ON for sometime and I have to reboot the phone to enable it....but reboot also data gets cut-off on its own....Even enabling and disabling phone data in the network settings doesn't enable the data...

But with KI4 modem this problem doesn't seems to occur....But the range of KI4 modem seems to lower than LPS....

Does someone else have this problem???Or can someone please suggest a good modem for this ROM...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] LMBBananaJoe:
you can find the answers in the link you quoted. The patch only makes you able to install pdroid. It is not officially supported thus you have to get pdroid apk seperatly

@AvRS

search function doesnt work here atm so I can't find quotation, I remember codeworkx saying TVout process is needed for something

edit: mentioned here

so you don't have those problems after deleting tvout, do you?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HANDSY:
Hi, modems are area specific so what may work for 1 user won't work for someone else in a different location. There is a sticky thread in original development (I think) that has loads of flash-able modems. I'm afraid it's down to trial and error.

Edit : Try the app Getril, it's had some good reviews on improving signal strength.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kufor:
Hi there,

I had similar issues.

Try modem BVLPE. I can get H+ with it and it's quite stable.

If that one doesn't work properly for you, I had good results also with XXLPX.

Cheers. ;)

Update me wants do download v2.6 for galaxy note lte. Hm?

Also, I don't know is it fixed in 2.6., when taking picture it shows animation twice, but takes one photo :/
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] krarvind:
No it doesn't. It's just there along with your device. It didn't tell you to d/l it. Please don't complicate things.

Yes double animation is a known thing.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yupo72:
Ok thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
You're right but I was only talking about the apk which doesn't affect the process running, they're 2 separate things so removing the apk has no knock on affects for someone who doesn't use it. I'm pretty sure I read that after what Codeworkx said but may be wrong.

I spoke about this previously, it's not a bug its just a bad choice of animations in JB as the first is to signal the image has been taken and saved then the second is to remove the preview from the screen. They could've probably used a static flash image or something for the taking then slide off for removing the preview. Oh well doesn't even bug me.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] krarvind:
@ all: Alright fellas, i had some time this morning. So check settings, OTA, Full ROM, you will see a 2.6.1 for I9100. D/l and flash via recovery. then flash gapps and other addons. THis has the commits from espen for mem leak fix and the blobs. What it also has a CM10 kernel with fluxxi recovery. Sorry, i don't have time to work on fluxxi's kernel to make it comptabile with new changes unless some one wants to pay me big :p. Have fun.

Edit: test and report back. cheers.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] JLowe:
App "Update me" ;) Thanks!!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Hi mate thanks for the message earlier and great to see you managed to get it working without the errors I got before :o :victory:

I've tested loading loads of my apps up and leaving them running which worked fine as the memory usage just crept over 500MB with lots of the cached. I then brought up the running apps and swiped them away which dropped my memory usage right back down to 380ish which is what it started at after booting up. This to me proves it's working as it's releasing the memory back once you've finished which it wasn't doing before.

Now all we need is someone to work out how to implement these fixes into Fluxi as I miss my fade out, reduced screen brightness and BLN :p

I'm sure Siyah will implement them soon enough and I'll test out that when available but for now it's looking good :good:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] JLowe:
Thanks again for the update! Now you can turn off also the backlight of the hardware keys.

Xxtweaks from 3rd post says: not compatible, but it doesn't matter for me; )
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Yeah it's because it's compiled from the CM kernel which is fully compatible with device settings (designed by CM) and which is also why it's not compatible with xxTweaker as that's only for Fluxi's kernel on 2.3 - 2.6 ;)

Unfortunately it's only the CM kernel currently compatible with the memory leak fix so until we have a custom kernel that is, you have fewer kernel tweaks available. At least you have a choice, tweaks on 2.6 or memory leak fix on 2.6.1 ;)

Further to my observations, I've found an issue with online flash video playback. For some reason there's awful colour banding all over the video with a green line across the bottom.

I cannot use MTP with 2.6.1 (I have not tested with 2.6.0). "Nothing" happened when connecting the phone with USB (note that the phone is charging correctly with USB but MTP doesn't work).

On the other hand, it seems that the memory issue has gone with 2.6.1.. I am very happy about that.. it made me crazy sometimes when the entire phone become laggy but now everything works very very fine :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mierdaseca:
I got the CPU undervolted, but for some reason the voltage settings come to their default state after rebooting, even if I tick "apply at startup". Note that the phone doesnt reboot itself, the voltages are stable, I mean when I manually reboot the phone.

It works nice on Slim ICS, which I have as primary boot with Siyah kernel.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mk.Xal:
Maybe try another CPU over/under clock app.

Anyone else having issues with the volume? In the music app the volume goes up too much with each step up to half volume, from half volume to max volume it doesn't change at all.

Basically the volume slider goes from 0 to max along half the length meaning the jumps in volume are double what they should be.

All sorts of strange things are happening for me in the Music app. Power amp seems to stall, but PlayerPro is flawless. Nice widgets too.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] __NBH__:
Just tried PlayerPro but it basically has the same problem, you can reduce the preamp down to make the volume jumps better but then max volume is too low as the volume doesn't increase over 50% of the slider.

You need a kernel that's got the latest CM Mali drivers. So far, as far as I know, only the latest stock CM10 kernel and some patched Siyah kernel would work.

I'm on the SlimICS 4.2 now and that's whyI can't use OTA. Can somebody upload the file with new 2.6.1 version of the ROM, with new gapps and addons here ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
I had this discussion earlier with someone else so yeah it's known but I believe it's not only this JB ROM affected if I remember correctly.

You can't use any other kernel except for stock or CM10 as mbutandola said because there have been a lot of changes that no one else has yet implemented. krarvind compiled the CM10 kernel with Fluxi recovery as CM recovery is not that nice in my opinion so he made a good choice.

We'll no doubt get other custom kernels including the changes in time but they're probably waiting or haven't noticed the CM10 fixes so mention it in their threads.

You could always just upgrade to SB 2.6 and then update in the OTA. The files are only put on there for a reason as it's an experimental/not official release so best to leave it that way.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zhuchella:
It's a pity because it's difficult for me to flash ROM twice (first - 2.6.0, and then 2.6.1). By way of exception can U put the file here with the mark "experimental" ?
