1% while sleeping for 8 hours .... I am happy now ;)

Ok, I deleted googlenow, some may say thats one of the main features of 4.1.x but I don't need it.

Also, no live ticker on lock screen but... I don't need it either ;)

Oh and 360mb of ram used after boot makes me happy, too ;)

This Firmware has a fckn great potential and is, at least to me, well done!

Bloat will stay as a big point but hey, that's what holy chainfire gave us root for :D

Which apps did you disable? Only Google Now? For example I disabled Samsung Voice thing because someone said the phone answers to home button faster and he was right.

Have one question... Do i have to be on stock Samsung rom before flashing this?

I tried flashing it when i am in resurrection remix 3.1.2.. But it failed.. Huhu.. Tried it again but still failed..
[Galaxy S II General] happy20b:
I flashed it on top of custom ROM. I went to recovery, cleared user data(factory reset), wiped both cache n dalvik. Then rebooted in download mode and flashed through odin3 v1.87
[Galaxy S II General] drelite08:
Did you remove the .md5 on all the files to make them just .tar files?
[Galaxy S II General] gregpot2000:
Ok, I flashed yesterday, I have come from 4.0.4 stock and Siyah Kernal.

While I think there are a lot of improvements, so bad points to note, which are making me dislike this ROM.

1.	New keyboard, I have always used the traditional 3 x 4 portrait keyboard as I find it easier to use, it has been changed in this ROM though, and is a nightmare to use, as there is no easy way to turn prediction on or off from the keyboard without going through the phone options. This is needed to toggle when using words not in the dictionary. Also the exclamation mark (!) can no longer be selected by pressing the top left button, it has been moved to special characters

2.	Messaging App lags quite badly, when scrolling through messages.

3.	Scrolling seems to have changed on the browser, and a lot of apps for the worst, for example before, you could give it a couple of flicks, and it would move fast to the bottom of the page, now it hardly moves when you flick it, and occasionally lags as well.

I found an old ICS Samsung keyboard ZIP on here, and flashed it, it seemed to work, but then it just force closes when it is selected.

I hope these bugs will be ironed out before final release, because it is quite frustrating now, and makes me think about reverting back. It is supposed to be project butter, but for me it has just introduced a lot more lags that I didn’t have previously.
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
For your keyboard problem, I had this with my Xperia keyboard I always use, too.

Problem is that you need to change the permissions of the libs. They are not set to rw-r-r automatic. In my case even the input app wasn't set right. After changing it works :)
[Galaxy S II General] firas1886:
Is anyone facing any issue with no haptic feedback when pressing on the soft buttons (back and settings touch buttons) ?

I already turned it on from the settings -> sound -> haptic feedback. And i can set the vibration intensity for haptic feedback, but still when i press back or settings, i get nothing.

Thanks for your help
[Galaxy S II General] psolpsol:
You are Using the wrong .pit
[Galaxy S II General] Lindexslp:
Have you turned on energy saver mode from the main settings menu?

This can also stop haptic feedback.
[Galaxy S II General] vivektyagi20:
So far so good...not really !!!

Ok, we have been using this ROM for the past, what, 3 days. Since I have been using ICS till now, I, personally, dont see much of a difference in the overall performance. The whole project butter stuff looks a bit murky and IMHO, the changes which I needed to see are not even tackled. I was genuinely expecting a camera app like the one in S3. But it was sheer disappointment. The camera in S2, S3, Note and Note 2 are all having the same lens. Why is our beloved S2 treated with infidelity then? No burst shot, awful panorama, continuous focus while recording video, et al. We did nt even receive the much talked about Dandelion lock screen with water effects. I personally am having a plethora of issues with my internal memory ( no space in system/app folder :(). The battery is draining like anything. When I used to get a full day with ICS, I needed to put it back to power today...twice. May be, the official firmware will help us getting the best out of this great gadget.
[Galaxy S II General] shaunnicho:
Yeah you have to keep in mind this is a Leak and not the final version :)

I don't find the stock photo editor... when I try to edit photo via gallery it says "picture editor is not installed, do you want to download it?" When I say yes nothing happens... any ideas?
[Galaxy S II General] thongrim:
Has anyone experienced a su request coming from radio?
[Galaxy S II General] atulalvenkar:
It's not the same lens. Even though it's 8MP the camera in S3/Note2 is different.Burst shot is a hardware limitation of S2 camera.

I am not sure about issue with /system/app looks like all files here are links from /preload. Try mounting /system as well as /preload as rw and try

Battery issue can be tackled by deleting some unwanted apps, specifically Samsung push service.

This is a test firmware and bugs are expected. Wait till the final version comes out.
[Galaxy S II General] vivektyagi20:
CAn we improve the project butter feel too? If so, do let me know please.

Moreover, how can I improve my internal memory, which is always without any free space available. I did something when 4.0.4 came for Europe and the total memory went 4 GB from 11 GB. I know this has happened since then only but still, I am unable to sort this out. :(

---------- Post added at 06:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:05 PM ----------

as far as I know, the hardware seems to be the same in both the devices. About burst shots, we have got a number of apps which could do so. What i would rather like is to have one embedded in my stock camera app. Well, coming to the issue which I face with my system/ folder, it happened when I flashed it with the wrong .PIT File way back in time when Europe's 4.0.4 turned the internal memory to 4 GB. Since then, was hoping that with this firmware, I will get corresponding .PIT file and my worries will be washed forever. I am still remaining with only 28 MB free space while I removed all the bloatware. :(
[Galaxy S II General] bobdoblo:
In what way is it a limitation?

Fast burst camera app works perfectly fine on S2.

Eagerly awaiting the second coming... No, not Jesus, NeatROM JB of course!

is there any mod for "moving" background wallpaper ?

and i would love to get my notification bar down with a gesture like in nove prime without the need of touching it (small hands)...
[Galaxy S II General] proximagr:
Hi all, just my feedback. I am using the ROM since Friday and i find it buttery smooth and extra fast, maybe even better that the CM10 4.1.2 that i used and without FCs until now.

The only problem I have until now is the wake up bug. As far as i searched this thread I cant find a solution so i assume that it is officially a ROM bag and it is not caused by an extra app (in addition to the stock apps). I hope Samsung will solve this at the official release :)
[Galaxy S II General] deniso177:
I would like to add my experience with this Rom, I installed this Rom using Odin.

So far everything is Amazing, the smoothness is definitely felt, im using Apex launcher and I used to always have scrolling lag once in a while, now never. I got no problems what so ever, no wake up bug that i notice, although power manager in betterbatterystats does show up highish time consuming. One thing is when going into lockscreen I can see the transfer between normal wallpaper and lockscreen wallpaper, I see the launcher wallpaper with the clock then it quickly changes to my lockscreen wallpaper, I dont know how to better explain it. Other then that the Rom is great, 0 force closes, 0 crashes, 100% stable for daily use.

Anyone who experiences bugs I suggest reflash it using odin and dont tweak anything unnecessary.

Btw I did apply the root kernel and the centre clock patch + ripple effect on the lockscreen, so this may have something to do with the above "bug".

Samsung if your reading this please include ripple effect toggle stock, no point having mods for something like that when it can come stock
[Galaxy S II General] miljano:
external memory card missing?

External sd memory card does not Mount to correct folder in this firmware.

Folder mnt/sdcard/external_sd is empty.

If you have root privileges and es file explorer, you can find the external sd card mounted under mnt/storage/extSDCard.

That’s a problem if mostly al apps use mnt/sdcard en underlying folders for saving files, etc. For example saving a file within opera browser, it is not possible to browse to the folder mnt/storage/extSDCard.

I’d fixed this by downloading an app in google play store called ‘ICS SD binder’. It did the job for me. Only Works when you have root. Set it, after reboot al files from memory card are visable again in folder external_sd
[Galaxy S II General] shaunnicho:
How come fast burst camera app works then?
[Galaxy S II General] nerolh:
Same here.. Was coming from Neatrom 3.6 with aroma mods.. Wipe, factory reset, download mode, odin flash and done.. :)
[Galaxy S II General] coversnail:

There is one issue though, and that is the huge battery drainage!!

Even with all battery save options and GPS turned off, the battery drainage is huge, even in sleeping mode.

[Galaxy S II General] vaaern:
Been looking forward for this for quite a long time (like most people I guess). But I have a small question, if I do flash this rom, will my device be unrooted? And is there anything I should watch out for? + If I do flash this rom, will I get an notification if the official one is pushed or do I need to go to kies for that? Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] Spiralzz:
You will be unrooted if you flash this firmware. However, you can root by flashing philz kernel. There's nothing much to watch out for, except to make sure you put the files in the properly assigned section in Odin.
[Galaxy S II General] carlocarrera:
Isnt stweaks for siyah only ?

What can be changed with it on stock ?
[Galaxy S II General] virani_joush:
Download photo editor from Samsung applications than you will be able to open editor directly from the gallery applications.
[Galaxy S II General] vaaern:
Thanks! I will not root again, as I am afraid to do something wrong :) but the other question, will I get a notification if the official update is released and pushed? Thanks again!

[Galaxy S II General] vivektyagi20:
apparently, it is a known fact that to make apps like S Voice and Accuweather from Galaxy S3 to work in Galaxy S2 (in 4.0.4 era), the said apps are required to be added to system/app folder. Silmilarly, for Photo Sphere from 4.2 to work in S2, the same process is required. This is what system/app folder needs to have at least some free space. If i am wrong or if you have any work around, please let me know :)
[Galaxy S II General] pedro.coba:
yes

[Galaxy S II General] shaunnicho:
Do you just flash it in recovery?
[Galaxy S II General] vivektyagi20:
about the wallpaper thing, I also tried setting the previously saved HD wallpapers in my internal memory to no use. There is a better option in https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androidwasabi.livewallpaper.dandelion&hl=en

Here, not only you will get moving/scrolling wallpaper but also water effects (only in home screen, not in lock though, duh :(). Worth giving a try. It made me feel great about my device ;)

how to root jelly bean firmware?

Does anyone has suggestion how to root Jelly Bean firmware for S2? I fleshed via odin siyah kernel but it does not worked
[Galaxy S II General] D33PO:
You shouldn't use siyah, but Philz kernel instead.
[Galaxy S II General] Farmfield:
LOL, yes, +1...

Butter was introduced in 4.1... That said, it's made up of three parts: Hardware accelerated GUI to 60 fps. Those 60 fps synched with the 60 Hz screen (vsync) and tripple buffering.

Are we sure all tree parts are implemented in this leak? I for one think it is as smooth as my Gnex was...
[Galaxy S II General] nerolh:
And dont do my mistake, u can't flash it trough odin.. flash it through stock recovery.. and it will work properly.. :)
[Galaxy S II General] gazdajezda:
Wtf are u talking? Butter is JB thing and i (unfortunately) also dont see any butter in this leak... Samsung apps flies, but other is no-go...
[Galaxy S II General] Farmfield:
Depends. If you don't have recovery, flash the .tar version with Odin (will give you recovery) and then flash the .zip version to get root. If you are on Siyah now, you might be able to flash the .zip version and get it to boot again... (and it won't boot now as Siyah isn't compatible with this build)
[Galaxy S II General] Madimen:
Is it possible to change the scroll? Coming from 4.0.4 wanamlite I think the scroll in this rom is very "sluggish". If you flick the screen it will only scroll a tiny bit. I've had this rom since it was leaked and already my thumb is starting to ache from all the extra scrolling needed!
[Galaxy S II General] joniviva:
ok, thanks, I will try

Quick view at the firmware pack and I see that factoryfs/app has links to /preload/symlink/system/app/.

Looking what contains hidden.img I see that it has directory symlink/system/app(size of apks=~360MB). From my understanding /(factoryfs.img) has too low space to keep them all so they are put into /preload(hidden.img). I suspect that it will be hard to make /preload empty for using with dualbooting. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1593697 mentions that hidden part is used for dualboot.
[Galaxy S II General] nerolh:
Looks great, but wont work for me.. Wiped dalvik and cache, and flashed it, but it didn't work.. :\

Because that app works by recording video and taking individual frames from the video, not as a camera would do it. The SII does NOT have the hardware for ZSL

Problems with deleting and writing in memory

Hello, i have issue with this ROM. I had one click root and CM10. Then i flashed this rom. Everything seemed normal than i notice a big problem. It is impossible to download something or delete anything in phone. Gallery did not even start. It gives me this report:

"Not enough space. Delete unnecessary

items, such as downloaded software,

pictures, videos, and documents."

Phone is of course after wipe and it has over 9gb space. It seems like phone doesn't see the memory. Did someone had the same problem? Could someone give me advice, please?

Sorry for my english. I am from Czech republic.
[Galaxy S II General] Don MC:
Yes. This thread is for the odexed version of the leaked ROM. There is another thread for the deodexed one.

IMO anyone posting a mod for either version should always clearly state for which version the mod is intended. Even if it is posted in the "right" thread. And ESPECIALLY if it is posted in the "wrong" thread.

I've also noticed that modders are posting new threads in the mods section and not stating whether their mods are for odex or deodex ROMs.

I did not flash this particular mod on my odexed ROM. Nor have I by mistake flashed any other mod intended for the deodexed version. I've just noticed a big number of users flashing the wrong mod just because modders don't state which version their mods are intended for.

It's not so hard: "This mod only works on the odexed/deodexed version of XXLSJ"
[Galaxy S II General] Imperiale:
Your English is fine.

I have had this problem as well, and it is as yet unsolved. Oddly, two reboots plus unmounting/remounting the SD card usually solves the problem for me, at least temporarily until it returns. Let us know if that helps.
