Hi

Flashed the build and my signal is really bad now. Struggles to hold signal in areas it would normally be full. Any ideas?

Thanks

I have to say.. This rom is amazing, smooth, fast and with a great battery life.

I used for months aosp neat rom 444, that is very similar, but unluckily [MENTION=3690986]_Sale_[/MENTION] stop to develop roms.

So, after silmsaber slimlp, slimlp and dirty unicorn,I think that our beloved s2 cannot afford lollipop as daily driver.

So, the last version that we can "really" use is 444 imho.

So, thanks to [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] for continuing develop rom for our more then four year old great phone.

The only annoying bug I found is Skype, that is not possible to use, I hope that some workaround can be found.

Someone tried older version of Skype?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] camp0s:
Yes! I keep using this version "skype.4950746973.apk" you can google by the package name and download it somewhere from the Skype website (look in the forums).

:good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Viper The Ripper:
For all the people who have problems with Skype running Kikkat ROMS...

Here there is a great Skype MOD based in 4.7.x version and of course, it's fully working in 4.4.x ROMS ;)

SKYPE MOD 4.7.x.x thanks to [MENTION=3387304]theos0o[/MENTION] ;)

Edit: [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] mate :) you can add the link in OP or in FAQ section as troubleshooting :good: :beer:

That modded skype version worked already ages ago for me when further builds does not work anymore but it is pretty outdated.. anyway thanks for that tip :good:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Saber:
Yes it works fine. Video calling works also.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Viper The Ripper:
It's fully working ;) . I've it as a compulsory app since I use KK :good:

You can say it... this ROM is amazing! God shave the queen!! ^^ :D :D LOL
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pilotn:
I' didn't try the modded one, but I can confirm than version 4.9 is working in video call too.

I cannot find it in Skype forum, so googoling i find it in uptotown
[Galaxy S II Android Development] camp0s:
Uuuoppss!

Sorry, I remembered it wrong, I found the working version-number on the forum but then I downloaded it also from Uptown:

http://community.skype.com/t5/Andro...0-49715-Android-4-3-Note-3/m-p/3706243#M37783

(middle of the page)

I have the latter one, working as expected :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pilotn:
Anyway afir in aosp neat rom Skype was working in all version including the last.

As neat rom come from slimrom source too, [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION], you think is possible to look into [MENTION=3690986]_Sale_[/MENTION] repos to understand the fix he used?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Saber:
Yes, but the rom base for neatrom 4.4.4 is old compared to slimsaber 4.4.4 which contains the more up to date source from slimROMs. So you could say finding the specific problem causing commits are like a needle in a haystack unless there are some report or findings on xda :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] officiallyme:
anybody else notice that sometimes when you move away from the wifi source and you loose the signal, the mobile signal also drops out and then reconnects?

seems like the two are linked in an unfortunate way somehow
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pilotn:
Or may be something related to linaro optimization?

I have to use version 4.9 versione with my Asus tf101 with katkiss 444 by [MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION] that use linaro optimization too
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Saber:
Doesn't happen for me. Was it like this before update/flashing the rom?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] officiallyme:
no, not really. maybe just coincidence. or maybe sonething to do with cpu load?

because i also experience the occassional slow down to an almost freeze when i work with my phone and then get a whatsapp message. just very occasionally, but still.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] DroidNforcer:
Hi man. I installed this rom as 2nd to try replicate your problem but no luck. I got nearly instantaneous fix.

Altho it some seconds to iniciate some sensors and the compass.

Here are some hints:

Try to recalibrate sensors and compass.

Try "SatStat" app from the F-Droid app repository.

Try "TopNTP" app and install the "Google NO SSL" Supl and try the Derek's NTP server and xtra data.

Do you have Gapps installed? If you don't agps don't work properly.

With SatStat tick all the options and within it's map section check if the tower and WiFi location fixes with or wothout satelites.

I leave a question if someone knows:

The xtra.bin data file is 38.8 KB but I don't see the network downloding such size or any in most cases when requested.

Is the entire file downloaded or just a couple of bytes?

The only thing modified is NVM* on the /data folder but are a couple of KB on size. And the /data/gps folder is not modified nither [emoji43]

Regards.

PS: Here is a thread with interesting info on gps for the S2:

i know the front camera is not the best there is, but i tried video calling in viber and it is so extremely dark you cannot see anything. switch to rear camera works. but the front camera is too dark.

is there a way to increase the brigthness of the front camera?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lations:
I had a similar problem and brought it to the attention of a few people here but nobody seemed to care/know what could be done.

Basically, I isolated the problem down to the fact that Kitkat handles location slightly differently to JB. When you get a lock indoors on JB, there's a good chance that you've acquired that lock not through GPS, but through the celltower/network location (and possibly wifi too). Both KK and JB use all 3 methods (gps, celltower, wifi) to determine location, but for some reason, KK seems really bad at determining location when you don't have a good GPS fix. Whereas JB seems very reliable at determining location even when you don't have GPS/satellites fixed, KK seems terrible at it :( :(

If anybody is able to help explore this further, that would be highly appreciated.

Read OP again if you didn't do so.... [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] wrote the specific changes made in unofficial builds....

which are making this build one of a kind:D

Please....do follow the thread as there's always changelog posted by fusionjack when he releases build which he tested prior uploading...

Really....I'm not flaming anyone here....but for the sake of all....newcomers should do their homework first: Reading whole OP, understand it, digest it....only after that flashing comes:)

I understand the thrill when members see a new ROM built.....:D....what, where, how, why, tons of questions that might be covered within the thread already:)

Ant+ Support

Hi All,

i have searched through the entire thread but have'nt found any further information about the implemented ant+ support. Has anybody tried to connect the Galaxy S2 to a fitness device, e.g. a garmin heart rate monitor or a speed sensor? Does it work? I would be very happy if i could use my s2 as a bike computer supporting my garmin ant+ sensors. As i'm no expert in custom roms, i would be very thankful for any hint before i spend many hours to install the custom rom...

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

I just downloaded an app called "ant tester" and it says that my s2 i9100 running latest slimsaber version from this thread, is art capable. Only some packages were missing but it gives you the option to download them.

I did not downloaded then because I have not any art device to test.

Perfect but GPS

Hello!

First of all I would like to say that this is the best ROM ever made for i9100. I've being using a lot of different ROMs over the last months and none of them come closer to SlimSaber performance, stability and battery consumption.

Congratulations [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] and thank you very much!

Second: please someone help me to make GPS to work! :(

I've tried everything but I think flashing a new modem is the only way out.

Could someone provide files and instructions so I can try to use others modems and have my GPS working again? Please! :)

GPS works really well for most people using this rom. I get a fix in seconds and works great
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lations:
As I said in my post on the previous page, it's not a GPS problem as such, but a 'location' problem. KK handles location worse than JB, when indoors it seems to have a really hard time determining location using just wifi/celltower, whereas JB does it flawlessly. So the problem isn't a problem with the GPS itself, it's just that KK can't determine location indoors very well (because it seemingly sucks when it can't get a GPS lock)

I have installed this on a family member's phone. It was a full clean before install.

I have a similar ROM on my i9300.

From reading the forum I understood that the latest update fixed the stagefright issue, but it seems not ...

Have I missed something?

add:

I see the issue now ...

Google has confirmed that the fix for the integer overflow vulnerability does not work as intended and assigned the CVE-2015-3864 identifier to the new issue. However, as of August 13, the company was still pushing out the updates containing the buggy patch.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] OlMightyG:
Yes, but it does not make sense that other people have a fix in seconds and did not have to mess around with configuration and some, like me, do not get a fix. Neither with a fresh install, nor with an "optimized" gps.conf. Switching to my second rom, a JB, gives me an almost instant fix. So it is no hardware problem.

I just do not know what to change to get a quick fix.

And I use only GPS for positioning. No Wifi is used for getting a fix! I have and had it always deactivated and got fixes within 10-30 seconds every time. (I just dont want my positions tracked by google by default).

[Galaxy S II Android Development] MikiGry:

This is kernel related. 3h 15min is pretty good scroce on KitKat. When u change the kernel it should disappear.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ed_android:
Hello, And thanks for the quick reply!

In a sense this is reassuring as I literally spent past months to understand the problem, with several people posting fantastic 6h+scores which seemed unrealistic.

On the other hand its not good as for the usage i do i need at least 4h 30m screentime.

Question: Is it true that the further android builds go the more battery they drain? (Theorically should things get even worse if I put slimLollipop? Am i going to improve it by reverting back to 4.3?Are all KK Roms with such high drain and why?)

Also why so many people post these 5h scores? (I dont doubt what you say I just thought my particular s2 could have a problem)

Also what disappears when I change kernel?

I am aware I asked a lot of questions, It's just that I ultimately started modding to fix the GPS thingy that Samsung never fixed And to improve performance And features, but ultimately ended with such problems with battery without being able to solve them that I almost wanted to replace my s2 if it werent for the upcoming a72 chips not yet available.

(My apologies for the off-topic, it's just weird that with the best ROM for KK available I get such results)
