Hi...somebody can confirm if FM Spirit works for our device

Thanks

Yep..

Great, now my missuses phone is Network Locked all of a sudden..

She was on stock 4.1.2. Used Odin to root and then flashed build 7. Nothing more, nothing less!

I hope someone can push me into the right direction or else I'm in real trouble.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] SimboXXX:
There are some threads on xda that offer free unlocking for SII, shouldn't be a problem.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] orky87:
I have for the last 3 hours or so. Here's what I tried Galaxy S Unlock, Galaxy S2 Unlock and SamsungUnlocker v1.4 which didn't generate a code as it complained about my GPU not being supported but offered me an option to modify current nv_data.bin file so I could replace the original in efs folder but after a reboot that didn't work ether.

Really could use a hand right now, is there anything else I could try?

Deep Clean?

Hello guys,

has anyone tried to do a deep clean and re-install Slim Bean?

I'm afraid that after all wipes and format, restarting in recovery the cell will be a suicide.....or not?

Thanks all
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] SimboXXX:
What? You have to do a factory reset before installing rom if coming from another rom. Obviously it's OK.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ercxar:
Hey guys I'm recently using this wonderful rom and great work. But I have a request I don't know if that possible but here it is.

You can't turn on/off data by touching "mobile network" tile while this feature works on aokp roms, instead I found there is another tile called "mobile data" it will do the turn on/off thingy. If these two could be merge into "mobile network" tile that would be awesome.:good:

I'm searching for commits or sources if there is any for doing this merge!:o
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
They show different things tho... One is set to display mobile network info (network name, signal strength, Google sync status etc)... The other just shows the current state of mobile data (on/off)

So, merging them doesn't really make sense...

Sent from my SlimBean pwned GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ercxar:
Thanks for the reply.

If you don't hold your finger on it for a while and just only touch it, on aokp roms it will turn data on/off. Let me show you a picture of it.

I found them on internet I don't have a nandroid backup to make a screenshot for you.

There's a cross on the top left side of the signal tile you can see it on this picture, it means the data is off.

But when you turn data on, instead of that cross it shows you the data network mod you currently connected to, such as E for "edge", 3G "umts" H "hsdpa" and H+ "HSPA"

And here is the picture when data is On:

I hope you got what I was trying to say.:good:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yupo72:
But....I'm already on Slim Bean, but have a lot of trash on my sdcard....after the factory reset I'll be on Recovery and have to re-install ROM and Gapps before rebooting, correct?

Know are dummy questions for you but just don't want to kill my phone :)

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] m1trand1r:
ow...just flash it already ...lol....you can't brick ur device with proper procedure described on Slimroms.net by TEAM ...now go....read them....be happy...:)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] SimboXXX:
A factory reset won't clean your sd anyway. You need to format sdcard for that. And yes, after reset you need to reflash everything.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] madeinhsa:
Please let me know if I have posted a wrong question on this forum? :confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] orky87:
Can you shed some light on this in more depth?

For example, on my Nexus S I can format everything that's available through the recovery menu without trouble, but on Galaxy S and on GSII there are some formatting options that if formatted breaks the functionality like root and errors on missing directories during mounting and so on.

Could maybe outline what's safe and what's NOT for a complete wipe of the whole system including partitions/system partitions/storage?

Thx
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] SimboXXX:
All the options are safe as long as you don't mind losing ALL your data. Factory reset will delete all settings and non system apps and all data. Format system will wipe system partition. Format sd card will wipe clean internal SD. But don't wipe sd at the same time if that's where you put the ROM zip because you will have nothing to flash.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MystaMagoo:
Yes,it works this way in rootbox also.

I also like it this way :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ercxar:
It just occupies more space for adding other useful tiles!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
No... more likely, it just means no-one knows the answer to your question...

Thanks for the tip about the Hangouts icon changing to Talk... will get that fixed up :)

As for the locality thing... I think the custom location setting is only for Weather, not so much the News. To get the local news, trying enabling location so that it creates a stream for your location, then disable it. I just installed the "Extras" and on first running the widget, it set up a "New Zealand" news stream...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yupo72:
Exactly what I want: clean all from internal SD and staying in Recovery Mode flash ROM-Gapps stored on external SD....fingers crossed ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] shiahzy:
Not sure if anyone noticed but coming from Build 6 and onto Build 7, I noticed the font rendering and colours are slightly different. I did a clean install so has nothing to do with the mDNIE settings which I have also checked. Mostly noticeable is the font on whatsapp. Significantly different. Smoother and slightly thicker. Don't suppose it is due to the new Mali drivers eh? Or was the mDNIE profiles tweaked? Ran through many pages and couldn't get an answer.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
So just to clarify: Settings -> Device -> Screen...

your mDNIe scenario and mode are set to "CyanogenMod" and "Standard" respectively???

Otherwise... are you using a custom kernel at all?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fusionjack:
[MENTION=1663702]HardCorePawn[/MENTION]: did you fix the icon at the top right notification drawer area for 240 dpi if setting icon is set to be visible? it seems fine to me.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] shiahzy:
Yup both settings at "CyanogenMod" and "Standard". Using Dorimanx 9.35. Maybe I will go back to Build 6 and grab a screenshot if possible.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] m1trand1r:
nothing's wrong here....:)...colors are fine....sharpness also...:):confused::eek:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fusionjack:
at least on my device, to achieve the same contrast or color:

dorimanx: cyanogenmod, dynamic

cm based kernel: ui, dynamic
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Nope... try swiping to/from QS screen... watch as the icons jump and move :silly: :eek:

Also does it at 220, but to a lesser extent... and the icon doesn't get cut off...

No movement or cutting at 200 DPI and below...

ps. you need the "Always show settings button" option ticked in Settings -> Interface -> Notification Drawer
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fusionjack:
ok, i thought i have missed something because it is working fine now (with setting ticked) and i have no idea why is now working. :D

yeah, as it got cut off, i saw the icons is jumping, lol...:D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] epiphone:
Am already on Build7.

Want to flash the gingerbread sounds package from slimroms.net

Anyone can advise what are the wipes before/after that I need?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] madeinhsa:
Okay! Will check it by enabling and disabling location access. Thanks a lot for the tip :) this one is sooper stable build your team has put up! Never switched to any oher ROM since slim roms have hit my S2! Keep making our S2 new all over again with each build ;) cheers!:good:

Anyone observed this shaky scrolling on screens comprising list? While scrolling through a list ( eg. List of contacts) or general scrolling, if one suddenly stops scrolling without lifting the finger, the content underneath shakes/jerks up and down slightly but speedily.

Please advise... :)

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MystaMagoo:
if you long press on the phone signal icon it brings up the data menu,so it shouldn't be a problem?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ercxar:
If you long press phone signal icon (mobile network tile) it will bring you data usage menu!

It's not a problem with that mobile data tile but if you don't use this tile and you want only use phone signal tile you gonna waste some time if you were in hurry!

Not a big deal though. It was just a request, IMHO it would be nicer that way. You can ignore it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] SimboXXX:
That's bug when it's charging. If not charging then should be OK.

Hey,

had some issues earlier. Every time I used the lockscreen camera it didn't start. It would not fully fill the screen and the picture in the frame would keep black and nothing would react. Hitting a few buttons let's you then access your phone and use the "inside camera".

Was able to reproduce it and take a log.

Hello. Is it possible to hide wifi signal icon in status bar?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Pretty sure the answer to that is no... if WiFi is on, the icon is there, if WiFi is off, it doesn't show...

At least by default anyway... there might be some Xposed addons or other mods or something...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] madeinhsa:
thanks! Checked it as you said, it happens only while phone is charging :good:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dead0:
I have noticed gps lock is quite slow with weekly 7.5. takes over minute to get a get a lock whilst with 7.2, I can get a lock in less than 10 seconds. could this be due to the additional gps magic field that was added in 7.5?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
TLDR; = No.

Long version... GPS lock is dependent on numerous factors... Position of satellite constellation (constantly varies)... Physical obstructions... Ghost satellite signals (aka reflections)... Signal degradation due interference... Currency of almanac data... Offset of current position from last "remembered" position... Availability of aGPS... Currency of aGPS data... Accuracy of time/clock... The list goes on...

One if the simplest things you can do... Is once you get a lock... Leave GPS on for a good half hour at least... This enables the almanac data to be downloaded... Which basically contains the calculated position of the entire satellite constellation (26 sats from memory) for something like the next 6 months...

This helps the GPS know what satellites to look for... And where to look for them...

First lock on flashing is likely to take much longer than before flashing, as the almanac data will be missing... Also, if you only ever hold the lock for 5-10 mins at a time... Getting the almanac will not happen, or will be inhibited... So subsequent locks will take a while as the GPS has to basically start from scratch and blindly look for every satellite...

Also, large changes in location without GPS lock (ie. Greater than 100km) can have a negative impact on lock time... As the GPS assumes it is in the last recorded position... And starts looking for satellites based on this position...

Also, not a bad idea to clear aGPS data and update it (search GPS Test on Play Store and look in the settings)

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] SimboXXX:
I still have to flash the static navigation libs or it sees no sats at all.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Beginning to wonder if, like the WiFi chips, if maybe there are different GPS units across the various revisions of i9100... Seems that it works fine for some but others need static lib... :what::sly::eek::confused:

openPdroid patch for Slim 7.5

Mateorod has been working very hard on the Autopatcher thread to make the openPdroid work with the new Slim roms. Consequently there are no errors when compiling the latest framework patches, and everything works perfectly. He has even fixed the mms.apk problem that was outstanding. I have been using Pdroid Manager since Slim 7.5 came out and cannot spot any conflicts with privacy guard, so I can only recommend that you flash the update and start protecting your private details today.

Flash the update in CWM then download and install Pdroid Manager from the play store

Any problems after flashing the update, just re-flash Slim rom and all will be well again.

A quick google of "W/Vold unmount attempt 3 failed (Device or resource busy)" led me here: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=19292

So it would appear that it is just a general android issue... Apps on SD (/mnt/asec) has always been a bit of an issue... but that was usually with USB Mass Storage mode... however, it might be doing something similar when trying to access the phone via ADB (aka USB Debugging). :confused:

As per that bug report, I would try making sure the app is not running and has no notifications relating to it... try removing it using "Recent Apps" (long press home and then swipe it away)... or killing it via the shell (ps and kill)...

when can we see android 4.3 and the new camera app focus here? will have to wait for 10.2 nightlies i guess
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Ok... I was hoping I wouldn't have to do this... but there is no avoiding the "Android 4.3 Elephant in the room" I guess... :rolleyes:

Yes... they dropped the 4.3 source... which is fine... for Nexus devices :p (Although, the guys are having a bit of a job trying to get Slim merged on Nexus as well!)

Unfortunately, the i9100 is not a Nexus device... it is a Samsung Exynos device... with smdk4210... and NO proper hardware driver sources...

Also, codeworkx aka Daniel Hillenbrand has stopped the hardcode work on i9100 due to real life commitments until some unspecified point in the future...

I tried to just backport the new BT stack to 4.2... and it wanted me to update the hardware/libhardware repo as well and now the Hardware Composer won't compile... :eek:

This is not going to be a trivial task... So, before everyone starts breaking the golden rule of XDA... don't bother asking about when 4.3 is coming to i9100... the answer could quite possibly be never... :rolleyes:

openPdroid patch for Slim 7.8

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Conny84:
Ahoi!

The following is ot since it's a google apps problem, but still: It might save the slim bean users some trouble and noone will think it is a rom problem (otherwise delete my post ^^).

My google maps navigation app 7.xx was crashing all the time. Here is what I did:

- Opened the Navigation app.

- Chose start and destination.

- Waited for the route to come up.

- Chooe "Start"

- Hit the "home" button in order to do some multitasking or turned off display

- Opened the Navigation app again.

At this point, the navigation screen should have come up (at least with aspp ver 6.xx) but instead it presented me the start and destination screen. It's acting like it's opening a second copy of Navigation and not the former one. If you redo your nav route, the app crashes.

You can work around that problem by using the pulldown menu shortcut (I have never done that before).

It was mentioned many times, but because you are new here...

Go to Settings/Advanced settings/Device/Screen/Scenario (set it to CyanogenMod (Default)),

also Mode (set it to Standard (Default)).

For the kernels you can try Dorimanx kernel (if you are unhappy with stock kernel). Remember that there are two threads about Dorimanx: Development and Q&A. If you go into trouble, don't spam in development thread, but go straight to Q&A...
