kroz!!! are you back? :p

you meant that by everytime you start an app that needs root, the root dialog comes up?

probably dorimanx kernel uses different path to disable the hw backlight. it is actually set a value 0 to a particular file. there is a term for this, sysnode or something.

if the path is wrong, then there is no effect. i'll take a look in the code which path is used in stock kernel and check if that path is existed in the dorimanx kernel.

That's why I slash-mentioned Folder Mount. I guess I used some Taboo App not be discussed with. Sorry 'bout that...

Anyways, getting back to the bug, it seems Folder Mount's Directory Bind from External Storage to Internal Storage won't work anymore, but it worked since 7/21 build, just as I said. I tried vice versa (Internal to External) and it won't work as well...

I don't do "Dirty Flashing". I always Full Wipe when changing weekly builds, cause I often encounter some bugs when I try to dirty flash, and I got sick of it. By the way, my update of the bug is: I wiped Cache / Dalvik and it seems to go away as of now, hoping it won't come back... :p

Uhm... I don't know if that is it, but I guess it's not the Root Dialog, but the Toast Message (like "Root Explorer has granted Superuser Access"). If I don't re-uncheck "Show Notifications", that Toast Message always pops-up when I'm doing superuser-related tasks via Root Explorer. I'm guessing that it's SuperSU's fault, and not your ROM. But, as I said before, if there's a sub-solution, I can live with it, so don't worry.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Harsha Raj:
Hello guys..

I think I am having a bad day.

Updated to latest build with full wipe. Changed to ART after boot. Rebooted the device and all fine. Tried to restore whatapp plus via TB but it did not happen. Tried to manually install whatsapp plus via apk. It said app could not be installed. Restored chrome beta via TB. Then opened chrome beta and the phone got stuck. As usual I did a hard restart by pressing and holding the power key. The device booted upto SlimSaber boot animation screen and stayed there for a long time. I removed the battery thinking hell with it let me do a data wipe again. Booted to TWRP recovery and then went to wipe and did wipe data. Got an error saying cannot mouth /cache in red text twice or four times and TWRP was stuck. So I again removed the battery and then then after putting back the battery, the phone just will not turn on. Its DEAD :(

No charging animation when the charger was plugged in. Nothing happens if i press and hold the power key. The battery percentage was around 11% when all this happened with charger plugged in of course.

Now in this state, with the phone not switching on, phone does heat up when its connected to the charger.

What went wrong? Is the memory partition corrupted with each hard restart/battery pulls? How to bring back the phone to life?

Edit 1. Battery is brand new with just 4-6 months of purchase.

Edit 2: So sign of anything in PC when i connect the phone to PC via USB.

No access to download mode or twrp?

Have u tried another charger?

Can u try with another charged battery?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Harsha Raj:
No access to download mode or TWRP now. The phone wont turn on at all. However I am searching for a JIG right now and see if that works.

Yes I tried 2 charger and 1 USB cable. The phone simply warms up in the back by the camera.

I need to go to my friend's place and ask for his S2 battery. Which will probably take another 5 hours more.

Thank you for the response!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lllukas:
Hello.

Try this trick.

Press and hold power button and plug phone to charger, and hold button by ~10sec.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hopper8:
Hey mate, click the Odin link in my signature, and go to the part that says "No download mode"... and try the things there. I am sorry to say though, if it gets hot around the camera when charging, and has no signs of life at all, that your S2 is not coming back to life :( I have seen dozens of the same case, definitely try the jig and the link in my signature... but time to get a new motherboard or new phone sorry :(

On the plus side, Nexus 5 is an excellent choice :good:

Hopefully one day you will start theming again ;)

Your SlimHue 1.2 for xtheme or HKTheme manager is perfect except the annoying bug with transparent links in WhatsApp. When deactivating your theme I can see them without long pressing the link. Also numbers are shown as link and are transparent also. I would fix it on my own if I had the necessary knowledge :p

Anyway, thanks for your work :)

Sorry for little OT

Nope. It did not work.

Well mate, I did try the steps in your link and none worked. I guess nothing can be done now from my side. I will just enquire with my local repair guy who actually had fixed the S2 wifi issues. Fixing this phone depends on the how much he charges.

Thank you very much.

EDIT:

The phone is hot now without charger plugged in. Doesn't matter I suppose?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
sorry to hear that...the chance that a partition is corrupted by pulling a battery is high, but it doesn't make a device brick or dead just because of that. based on your description, it looks like something went really wrong with your emmc before your phone is dead. the first indicator is that rom is stuck when opening an app and then the second one is cannot mount cache partition. this could be a hardware problem that needs a replacement or your bootloader partition somehow corrupted. in case of bootloader, afaik you can revive your phone by doing a JTAG. you need to find jtag service in your country.

my galaxy note was dead four months ago before i gave it to my father...the phone was suddenly off while i was on call. nothing can turn on the phone. i sent my phone to samsung service and it was a hardware problem, the motherboard needs to be replaced.

Can someone please confirm working screen mirroring? I have lent out mine so unable to test...

[Galaxy S II Android Development] cOOk!e:
You could try poping out the battery for a couple of sec., put it back in, press and hold volume down button while at the same time you plug in your charger, once you plug it in you still need to hold the volume button (that should(hopefully) take you to a screen with 2 options continue with reboot/go to download mode

The second thing you could try is to charge your battery in your friends phone and/or use his battery to power up yours (happened to me once, phone just didn't recognize/fill the battery, but once I charge it in a s3(no other phone at hand ?) everything went back to normal (later did a fuel gauge reset with dori ?)

Hope it helps, m.

Would be cool because when I uncheck touchkey illumination under settings - advanced settings - device - screen the key illumination is off but only until the next reboot. After that the keys glow again for 3 seconds although illumination is unchecked. check - uncheck again and they are off until next reboot. In STweaks I can disable them in BLN tab (force LED off or something like that)

I wiped *everything* (except efs), installed 0812, gapps and my cleaning zip (deleting some ROM & GApps apps, etc.) as usual and it booted fine. Did a NEW setup (no restore at all) and set up Settings and Nova. Since my custom bootanimation.zip (I put my name and contact there in case it's lost and found by a honest person) did not show up, I recreated the PNG inside bootanimation.zip, put the new ZIP in the CleaningZIP, uploaded it to the phone, installed it and rebooted. The custom animation still doesn't show up but worse.

After initial Samsung logo I only get a black screen. Touch keys light up if I boot and switch on the phone, but screen stays all black. So, I (dirty) reinstalled JUST the ROM but no luck. Stays black after reboot. Any ideas what might cause this or how to recover to see a cause except from a new total wipe? (USB debugging is switched off.)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Hmmm... looks like I ain't the only one experienced that bug. I also encountered that - Black Screen with Button LEDs on, meaning it's alive, but Screen ain't showin.

I know you said "except full wipe", but IT'S THE ONLY WAY.... If you want to save your data, you could try backing it up, then full wipe, then advance restore the data from the fresh backup, but no guarantee about that... But still, worth a shot than keeping all of your data while your phone still hating you... :D :) ;) :good:

Boot into cwm/twrp.....and connect ur device to PC(if you're nearby any...) then d/l Qtadb from net(Google is your friend) and look if you have adb there....it should be....navigate with qtadb file explorer to system/media/ and put back original bootanimation and later fix permissions in cwm....and try to boot it.....or...flash some custom kernel and see if it boots....I won't give you a hint but my sig speaks for itself:)....

Good luck...;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nursoda:
I got back into the phone by flashing 0804, but my CleanZIP breaks it again, so I will debug now. Still strange, that flashing 0812 did not help. Will post findings here.

Samsung Note N7000, Galaxy S I9000, Galaxy Ace S5830
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
do i correctly understand that it is just the bootanimation.zip issue? if you see black screen after using custom bootanimation, the booting process is still fine, it just can't play the animation. you can check that with adb logcat on pc while booting.

did you set the correct permission for the bootanimation zip file? otherwise, afaik there is a particular picture size or something that are allowed to be used.

It smelled like a bacon
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nursoda:
Well, yes and no. I obviuosly did something wrong with my Clean/Bootanimation script. Still, if I flash 0812 over it, all modifications should be gone again. However, if I just flash 0812 -or- 0804+0812 in a row, i still get black. If I install 0804 and boot, reboot to recovery and install 0812, i'm fine. If I install my script afterwards, it's broken again. Maybe I'm deleting too much? Got an interesting Catlog though, attached.

How to enable Reboot menu on power button

And how to enable clear button and Ram in Recent apps panel

No advanced display option?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
1. To enable Reboot menu, go to Settings > Navigation > Global Menu > Input Reboot menu.

If you want Advance Reboot options, you can enable it through Settings > Security > Find the Advance Reboot option

2. AFAIK, Ram in Recents is omitted in SSK, so there's no option like that here (correct me if I'm wrong). As for the Clear Button on Recent Apps, there's none. But you can pinch-in on the Recent Apps to clear them though.

3. Advance display? I'm not sure if I'm getting it right, but I'm guessing it's on Settings > Advance Options > Device > Screen (correct me again if I'm wrong here again)

:D :) ;) :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] george_shudi:
yes mate Advance Reboot options done , advanced display done .. clear button and ram bar in recent panel there is no options, hope it will be on the next release.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lllukas:
No, will not be, because its SlimRoms.

If You really want this, install Xposed with module (Gravitybox or Xblast) if i remember rightly.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gandalf19:
You can try "pinch in" on recent apps panel :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hawaiisteve:
[MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] maybe a good idea to put a section in FAQ about slimrecents and how to use it. Seems like every other day someone asks the same questions...

[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Why do you guys even bother cleaning Cached Apps in Recent Apps panel? Since it caches, it's supposed to make execution of apps faster, and you're making the System mad at you for doing that. You should feel bad about System! Shame~! :eek:

No, it is unticked and keys lighten after reboot. I have to tick and untick it again to disable them but it this is only the case until the next reboot.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
after that happened, is rotation still working on other apps?

ok, at least it is consistent...well currently i have no idea why that could happen. i think there is still leftover from custom kernel somewhere. could it be in internal storage?

otherwise, do a backup and try a full wipe. see if this happens after a clean flash.

btw...the touch backkeys setting is not immediately applied after boot, but usually soon after you see homescreen.

[MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION]

Questions!

1.(Noob Level) What's the diff between MaliV3 and MaliV2?

Reason: There's a game I want to play (Knights n Squires) but it FCs on SSK. But my friend (who also uses SGS2) could play it on his Stock-based ROM. So I kinda wanted to do Dualbooting, and was wondering if it would reduce performance on SSK or something, cause I don't want that... :(

2. How could Koush's Superuser survive on SSK?

Reason: Some root apps of mine (can't speak because most of them are Taboo Apps) doesn't really like the New SuperSU update on your latest SSK updates, so I was wondering on how to make the old Koush's Superuser (the one from 7/21 build) survive a dirty update.

2A. Can it be possible to get a SSK ROM Zip, then remove the SuperSU, then Dirty Flash it?

2B. Or Full Wipe, Flash updated SSK, then install Koush's Superuser?

2C. Or get a SSK ROM Zip, replace SuperSU to Koush's Superuser, then dirty flash /clean flash it up?

I'm a curious cat... Nya~annn... :D :) ;) :good:

---------- Post added at 06:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:14 PM ----------

I saw your post, and I was like: "This guy's gonna get Slim-banged" :p

If you posted that question here, of course we would totally say "This one!". But as a random guy as I am, it all depends on your daily usage and stuff...

I like SSK cause it fulfills my needs. So first, find things that will fulfill yours, then try both of 'em, then you'd probably get what answer you want. :good:

If you use DorimanX kernel, then NO. If you are on SSK with no tweaks, then YES. But as a lazy person typing, I prefer getting only the V6's Minfree Values, Some build.prop tweaks like heapgrowth and heapsize, Sysctl tweaks like kernel_panic and kernel_panic_on_oom and VM tweaks like cache pressure and stuff, then paste it on "Performance Control" to run on boot. Other stuff like patching jar files are additional tasks, and I'm too lazy to do that every week (or every 5 days, cause FJ sometimes heats up on updating :D )...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Facuu:
I was asking because I thought that editing and adding lines in init.d or build prop without a supporting code is kinda useless I think. Anyway this rom flies, no need to do that, but just asking
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
The only parameters I changed on my build.prop in, as I stated before, are dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit and dalvik.vm.heapsize. I don't know if purging assets to obtain more memory (persist.sys.purgeable.assets) is supported in SSK, so I may just have to ask FJ for that, as well... :good:

I tried with gmail, also the same thing happen, stuck in landscape I have to close the apps n open again to return to portrait.

And there is one game called dragon of Atlantis, the game is locked in portrait, but it can rotate upside down, while my rotation setting is set to 90 n 180.

now I'm writing using xda locked in landscape. It can rotate upsidedown, but won't rotate back to portrait.

Any idea?

Edit:

I've been playing around with the setting. It seems, whatever angle you untick, the first time it can always rotate, but it would not go back to the original rotation because in the setting the rotation degree is untick. But when I ticked it, the locked rotation can go back to original again.

Weird, but for now I just need to tick all the angles.
