[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmarDaoudi:
Hey,

So I upgraded my Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 to ICS 4.0.4 before 1-2 months. The new graphics and extra features looked really great at first, but 2 hours after using it on normal applications (Facebook, YouTube, Twitter.) It froze and did nothing, like literally just freezes at the screen it lagged on. This has been happening continuously for the past 2 months and I'm really sick of it, I upgraded my phone and my dad's one (both SGS2I9100) using Samsung Kies, ever since that, it just keeps freezing like 4 times a day and I have to take off my battery and re-put it so it can reset since nothing will do this.. The old the firmware I had was the really amazingly going well and never lagged even once (I can't remember which firmware though). I'm a total noob, I didn't and don't have my phone rooted or some stuff like that, expect downloading APKs off the internet lol.

I really want someone to help me in this, I know there must be a solution since I don't think I'm the only one who has been annoyed by this, specially when it happens on a daily routine. I searched over the forums and found nothing. I know there must be something talking about the issue but I'm too nooby to understand the article titles which might be a solution of my problem.

Please help me in my problem it really bothers me and xda is my last hope...

Thank you all.

Note: please use simple terms because I really won't understand, and if you do, please teach me them lol.

Well, first of all your up for some reading.

While you go from thread to thread you'll run into the world of ROMs and flashing.

The first thing you have to know is that your device comes with 4 things:

1) Hardware (dah)

2) Kernel (link between Hardware & OS)

3) ROM (OS)

4) Modem (Baseband for your country / Region)

You are actually on 4.0.4, It's Kernel is known to suffer the brick bug issue.

Flashing is used to get the best from your device, in relation to your

personal user experience

. You got plenty of options like Stock Roms and Custom Roms, as well as Stock Kernels and custom kernels.

When flashing stock roms you get the chance to get rid of your carrier stuff (bloatware and animation boot) by getting an unbranded ROM (samsung official stock rom), you can either go down to previous versions (Gingerbread, ICS 4.0.3) or even go up (Jelly bean leaked ROM). Carrier branded or not, it's just a matter of choice.

When flashing custom roms you get a whole lot of roms to choose from. The most common are CyanogenMod (CM), RR (revolution remix), Omega and etcetera. These roms take the best of the stock roms and leave the worst, so you'll get a more personalized experience.

When Flashing custom kernels your trying to get the best performance for your ROM, this means you can use a stock ROM with a custom kernel.

Modems are basebands that let your carrier network function in your region / country, so if you flash a modem, your network might not work, so you'll have to flash another modem and so on.

Check all that out and if you decide to go on flashing, we are here to help you on the easiest / safest way to do it.

rembember to read and re-read all first.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
you did notice this is now your official post right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmarDaoudi:
Okay I kinda get it, can you kindly please send me links that will help my problem? I'd rather downgrade with Stock ROM than a costum one.

Another thing, will it affect anything that has to do with my Carier? and does my phone have to be rooted in order this to work? If so how can I?

Many thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
try sammobile.com

they have plenty of stock roms.

I'd personally advice you to get 4.0.3 stock ROM. What's you carrier? I could look it up for you while you learn about flashing/downgrade.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmarDaoudi:
That's what I was thinking of too, and it's Orange IL (Israel)

I need you you to tell me how do it too please:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
The best option for you is to get Mobile Odin Pro, got 5 bucks to spare in google play?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmarDaoudi:
After installing that, what should I do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
here, download the official ROM of your choice (you can type ctrl + f and search orange):

Remember, 4.0.3 is the best option for you.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Donnie Sins:
When the guy doesn't read it was a good advice to start doing it, because it's not really allowed to ask everything that is allready asked so many times.

When he actually does read, but doesn't understand (which I don't think because he's asking basic question about steps he must take) then it's maybe better to rethink if he's really going to flash something because he doesn't know what he's doing;)

Okay, so I did some reading and figured out that I needed to root my phone, I'm on this thread which was recommended by many people http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1501719 . Am I doing it the right thing? since I want to downgrade to stock 4.0.3?

Second question, I downloaded the CWM zip and extractred the CWM file on SDCARD, it says reboot to recovery, how can I do that?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Donnie Sins:
Why don't you just flash a stock rom through Odin? No offence but I'm serious, the lack of knowledge you show here by asking about Recovery to me seems to be a sign you shouldn't root it at all, and learn a whole lot more about flashing and more if you want to.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmarDaoudi:
I managed to root my phone, I have SuperSU,CWM now on my phone, sorry for the stupid questions did more readings, my goal now is to downgrade to stock 4.0.3, how can I do that?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Donnie Sins:
These all aren't stupid questions, because everybody had to go through them the first time. It's just that all the questions have allready been answered here on xda, so that's why you've been told to search and read for yourself.

Here's an article that can be helpfull:

hi...

i tried to enable this lock animation by decomplie framework-res.apk and modify the bool.xml file but this method not work

any one knows how to enable it on hox+

i don't want app to do that for me ... i just need to put it in a custom rom made by me..
[HTC One X+] AndroHero:
Is there not an actuall animation, you have to add to the anim folder in the framework before it will work?
[HTC One X+] PopAhmad:
as i've read editing the code config_animateScreenLights from true to false where it's inside framework-res.apk will make the CRT Animation enabled ... i've done this and nothing happen
[HTC One X+] PopAhmad:
any one can provide me a link to start building this mod?
[HTC One X+] komeet:
I heart that the colored version of the elegancia rom has this mod included. Maybe this can help you to get started.
[HTC One X+] AndroHero:
Thats not the CRT Screen on/off animation. That is a shutdown animation.

Hey guys, Im using a wired xbox 360 controller with my samsung note 10.1 and have downloaded FPSe, Im using USB/BT joystick centre and can only seem to program one analog stick to work instead of both.

Ive tried in the settings of FPSe to get two analog sticks controls up but then I lose the function buttons (cross, square, triangle, circle) or whatever theyre called if that makes sense?

Is there any way to be able to use both analog sticks and these function buttons all at once or do I just have to refrain from dual stick games?

Cheers for any help.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] steven-026:
This is going to be my 4th time re-syncing my entire music library, which has almost 800 songs. I have been using DoubleTwist AirSync since I got my phone almost a month ago.

First time, the music from my old phone wasn't being recognized in my music players, so I had to manually put in all of my songs(I don't put all of the music from my computer on because it has my brother's music as well.)

Second time, a lot of my album artwork was missing. For some reason, not all of the songs from an album would be grouped together either.

Third time, happened this morning when my music suddenly wasn't being recognized. By lunch time, I noticed that all of my music was deleted from my phone.

I manually had to put all 800 songs onto my phone each time which took 3 hours last time I checked. That's because syncing through Wi-Fi is slow sometimes, and whenever I sync through DoubleTwist, my internet stops working for any other device or computer. I really wish I could put in music through USB. I'm putting all of my music onto my 32gb Sandisk microSD card by the way. I am using an iMac to sync all of my music also.

What should I do? Are there any other applications I can use, and does anyone know why this is happening? This is my only regret for not buying an iPhone 5. I am seriously pissed off because it's wasting so much of my time!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] se1000:
Why not just use Google Music Manager? It will upload all of your music to Google Play, then back down to your phone if you choose. You can either stream as you go, or flag the music you want to store locally. Manage your library from within iTunes and the Music Manager takes care of the rest. Access your music from the Play Music app.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] psykhotic:
I've flashed a ton of ROMs and never lost my music.... put it in extsdcard and use power amp to use the folder with your music for your library....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] uoY_redruM:

I have over 3,000 songs on Google Music that I stream regularly. Art work gets wonky sometimes on new uploads but once I got it all situated, its good.

I have a 64gb card filled with FLACs of stuff I gotta hear 1:1 reproductions of, and have close to 200 albums on google music. Double flip sync twist whatever is junk.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Pennycake:
I just put a bunch of music on my phone with Kies Air. I am having some issue with the USB driver not working any more.

It worked fine though. I moved all the music files to the folder that had the rest of the music in it. Are you sure they're going to the right folder?

What file formats are you using?

Why can't you use USB? (could be same issue I had, but with a Mac, but I can't know). Can you use a USB card reader or otherwise to access the external sd separately?

I moved the music with ES File Explorer after Kies put them on internal storage. They didn't show up at fist, but restarting the app fixed it.

It might be good to organise your music on your computer, too - make separate folders for you and your brother.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] eggydrums:
Use Google music. :) Yes, the app itself is not as featured as others, but if you use a good sound mod like awesome beats or Sony its worth it
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] steven-026:
Kies doesn't work on my iMac.

Regarding Google Music, does anyone know where the music is actually stored when you save it to your device from the Play Music app? I can't find the folder for it, and I need to fix a few albums.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Pennycake:
Google Music is good if you can stream, but I've had issues with it and went back to the stock music player app and playing from sd card.

Kies Air is browser-based, it just needs java - I don't see why it wouldn't work on OSX.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] steven-026:
I was using the application version before. But the browser-based Kies requires Java 7 to upload multiple files at once, and I'm on OSX 10.6.8, which only has support for Java 6 apparently.

So does anyone know where music is stored if you are getting it from Google Play? Music from Google only shows up in the Play Music app, which is very buggy for me currently, and I hate being locked down to one app. It isn't in any default music folder, so if anyone has any info, please feel free to chime in.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Pennycake:
I don't think it's stored on the phone (aside from what's cached), just streamed, unless you've specifically made it available offline.

Check these out for information on that and how to : http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1250232 , http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1248950
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] steven-026:
Yeah, I meant when I've specifically made songs available offline. I think it's stored in the app itself though. I looked at the Play Music app under the App Manager, and it had like 8gb of data.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nyyankees1237:
