I have changed it to 73% because there is info that better not set higher than 75% but I still feel it's not strong enough (when I receive a message holding my phone I think it's too soft). Maybe there are other options or some mods or any other things because it's the only disadvantage of RootBox so far (and on NeatROM that vibration was much stronger, there were sliders in settings to set vibration strength but default vibration was stronger than those 73% I have set).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hopper8:
Well no, it's not a need of another mod. The reason it says not to raise the vibration higher than that is so that it doesn't damage hardware. The software on your phone doesn't care how high the vibration is. So, if on NeatROM your vibration was higher than Rootbox, it was likely in the realm in which its stated it's possible to damage hardware - ie above the 75% on that slider.

I have reinstalled the ROM and gapps package, wiped partition, wiped dalvik cache and fixed permissions over and over again to no avail.

Re: [ROM][4.2.1] RootBox ♦ Support ♦ Help-Index ♦ Discussion [i9100/i9100g]

No. You're the first person to report this. You need to include way more information than you did though.

How did you install it? What rom did you come from? What kernel are you using? What have you tried to fix it?

Those are just basic questions you should include.

---------- Post added at 10:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 AM ----------

Guys, if you're reporting a bug please include as much information as you possibly can. I have seen soo many big reports recently that say 'I've had a random reboot.. Halp'. This information isn't going to help anybody. You need to include way more information than that. What kernel are you using? How did you install rb? What rom/kernel did you come from? What have you tried to fix your problem? These are just some basic information you need to include. If you report a bug, try your hardest to include a log of it. That way Bajee can take a look at it and know what the heck is going on. After all this is a development site (I know I'm in the support thread, but this is still in xda).

Thanks for reading this and your cooperation.

Re: [ROM][4.2.1] RootBox ♦ Support ♦ Help-Index ♦ Discussion [i9100/i9100g]

Like I said I'd the same prob...

Over this 2-3 random hot boots.

I think it's related to the newest 3.7.1 because never had that before ON STOCK.

So before only recognized problems when I used another kernel like Dori or Siyah.

After the problems now, I tried the Siyah kernel again (Dori seems not to work well on my phone) and I only can say it's working fine 'til now (at least longer bug free than before :P).

To get GPS working again, I used 'GPS fix' (see playstore) and now it's working fine, too.

[GPS fix didn't worked on stock.]

So to make clear:

I think in 3.7.1 was something changed which brings probs to some phones.

The Siyah is maybe against this change, so that it's working again - please try and report!

CHEERS ;)

PPS: Please keep in mind that Bajee will check this, when he have a time from study, so be patient!

Sorry, but he isn't the first one who reports this. Just have a look one and/or two pages back...

Ah. I've been keeping up with this thread but I guess I missed that post.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sakete:
Hi, I was using RootBox 3.7.1 with Dorimanx 7.47 kernel. When I installed RootBox i did a full wipe, cache wipe, dalvik cache, ran kernel cleaning script, fixed permissions, etc. Then after I booted RootBox for the first time, I went back to Recovery and wiped cache, dalvik cache, ran kernel cleaning script, installed dorimanx, wiped dalvik again, fixed permissions and rebooted. It ran smoothly with everything.

Just to say, I had no other issues with RootBox, only GPS fixing. I tried using the app GPS fix from the Play Store, as I read on some pages that that app can usually solve the problem. It detects all the satellites, in my case up to 7 or 8 it detected, but it didn't actually fix my location. Which was strange. I tried with Chameleon ROM (hybrid Sammy/AOKP) and it got a fix within half a minute. So it's not a hardware problem, but a software problem.

What I'm not sure about is whether GPS is controlled by the ROM package or by the Kernel. Anyone know that by any chance? Because that makes troubleshooting easier.

Anyway, I'll be needing GPS regularly starting tomorrow and I'll be using Chameleon for now. (but I do miss RootBox already, cuz otherwise it's a fine ROM).

Hey all, I have a question,

I have a Galaxy S2 smartphone (i9100) and am running the latest Rootbox v4.2 with latest dorimanx (9.39). I had a question regarding my CPU clock speed.

Ever since I bought it, whether I was using the stock ROM or any custom ROM, during playing games the Phone would always run at 800 Mhz instead of 1200 or even 1000. Upon checking the CPU group, I found out that the CPU belonged to Group 2 Now my question is, does devices with CPU of group 2 never achieve clock speed of 1200 Mhz?? in the AnTuTu benchmarks it shows 1200 Mhz but while gaming it never clocks above 800 Mhz :( Is there any solution because the games lags and I had to overclock the GPU to 400 Mhz (@1100mv) to play Asphalt 8.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minidou-77:
This Is because of thermal throttling.

When you play a game your phone gets hot but it wants to stay on safe temperatures so it clocks down (lower frequence=lower power consumption =less dissipated heat).

But if you have to overclock your gpu it doesn't mean that your cpu is not powerful enough, it means that your gpu isn't (powerful enough).

The CPU isn't the most important part in games, it's the GPU.

RB + pdroid ?

Hi,

i tried Paranoid, but they replaced (?) their "Privacy Guard" with the 4.3 "App privacy" which is even less powerful.

(Oh and the paranoid version i tried lacked the possibility to disable cell broadcasts, which is really annoying in germany..., but didnt get support..)

i used to build RB myself and patched it with the OpenPdroid patches, but most of the time the build failed, as i could not get stable code versions, as there are no branches/snapshots i could sync with.

Would it be possible to provide code branchs/snapshots for stable releases or provide builts with the OpenPdroid patches ?

Feature Request: Data Usage Display Toggle

The phone already keeps track of data usage. I think it would be great to add a toggle that displays the amount or percentage of your data usage in a month. I know there are apps out there that put a tracker in the pull down menu but these all have major amounts of wake lock. Android already tracks this, so why not just use that but make it more user and battery friendly? I don't think this would require much coding. It would be similar to the signal toggle which displays signal strength. It would only need to display data used, it wouldn't need to toggle anything, except maybe as a direct link to data usage within settings.
