i'm glad that the new build smooth again. :D

actually, i'm still have a doubt which part of rom is kernel.

if you take a look at rb kernel zip, there is hw folder in it. in there, there is gps lib. this lib is part of the rom and even it is a prebuilt, not being built during building rom at all.

so basically by flashing that zip, you'll also change the rom also. it is fine as long as on the same rom and the same build date.

in dorimanx kernel zip, there is only boot.img file.

in my opinion, the modules folder should be included also since it is built together, but i could be wrong.

hmm...just tried on galaxy note, gps fix is fine and fast.

i'll try later on my i9100.

lol...your tank icon. :D:D:D

you can download it from dev-host. :)

the stock kernel is the slimkernel. ;)

Hey guys really strange problem and it's not rom related I hope if you could help me.

Recently everytime I flash a new rom I can't find any wifi with my phone and it will stuck on scanning for network forever. I googled it a little and found that some guys had problem with dori kernel after release of v9.16 that they couldn't find any wifi networks and dorimanx replied he won't investigate it. But my problem is even if I flash another kernel it won't find any wifi network! I tried 4 roms on various versions, aokp etc but no changes.

I'm trying to download latest stock rom and flash it, then flash this rom after it. I heard sometimes flash stock roms will solve many strange problems! But any of you guys know what should I do if flashing stock rom didn't help?

(I replied on other rom threads seeking help but I got none useful helps. I found you guys friendlier so I hope you won't get mad for off topic post)

EDIT SOLVED: I remembered previous wifi working rom had "region code" wifi option and after every reboot/shutdown it wouldn't find any wifi networks either but before I change region code to australia. And other roms that I tried had this feature (region code) removed from their roms. But I found region code option right now under wifi settings, interface and after I changed it to australia I found wifi networks and it worked again! Please don't remove this feature:o

woohoo:D:good:

thanks for quick reply

do you know how I can edit build.prop?

and what DPI is "classic" for SGII especially for 4.4.2

Thank you in advance
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the-bomber:
use 240 ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rtorres0106:
Use root explorer or other file manager that can access root of internal sdcard.

goto system -> build.prop find ro.sf.lcd_density = XX change that value original stock value is 240 for S2 just change the value then reboot be sure your on r/w so you can edit.:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gippy2:
And if you had read back a few pages you would've known cos it's been explained ..Know the risks cos the poster has lost root...So as long as you know what your doing crack on..Its easy enough but be prepared if all goes Pete tong.....

[Galaxy S II Android Development] adzz37:

I have a problem, I went into build.prop edited the lcd density and then saved...

I rebooted phone but did not like the change in size, so went back to build.prop to edit the density and it opened up and there was no text in the file whatsoever...

So I rebooted the phone and tried again, this time I saw the text in the file but it would not let me save...

use rom toolbox pro,there is a built in build.prop editor there.or es file xplorer navgate to system/and look for build.prop click it and find ro.sf.lcd_density- edit it to what dpi you want mine is 170.same thing applies in rom toolbox.

Is this what you want?if yes apex and nova has an option to hide app label names. About the build.prop try romtoolbox.

Since, there were some updates to SlimSaber 4.4, I'd like to ask if it's worth changing from 4.3 to 4.4. I'm interested mainly in good battery life (is it better on 4.3 or 4.4 at that moment) and good performance (how is that compared to 4.3).

Thanks for help.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rtorres0106:
TBH battery from 4.3.1 slimsaber w/ dorimanx kernel is still better than running latest kitkat slimsaber on ART for me, and for performance not much difference on 4.3.1 with dorimanx kernel so it was definitely worth a try. :good:

hi, i don't write too much here but i follow the development of this awesome rom.

I've would like to ask to [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] if it is possible to replace the default calculator with the cm one (https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_Calculator/tree/cm-11.0) only because it has more function (dec, bin, hex, matrix etc..).

If it's not possible i'll continue to replace the apk in system/app every time i flash a new build.

Ok, I know my device, and I know what I have installed and what I haven't. That particular module was downloaded to be used with Xposed at first. Now, if it's working as a standalone app (as it is actually installed) that's great, but I couldn't have known that as I was using it before with Xposed. So, it wouldn't hurt someone to try another module, it may work on it's own, without Xposed, that was my point (although it sounds weird enough I know).

Hello, I had limited connection for some time lately so I couldn't follow the thread very well. I am using latest 4.3 build (12/05). I am experiencing some problems. First, I can not run Google drive, it instantly force closes after install. In 4.2 I didn't have this problem. Is there any fix or workaround for this?

Secondly, as far as I follow with BBS, my device does not go into deep sleep. It is constantly awake. I checked kernel wakelocks and it shows that power manager wakelocks is responsible for this awake state. I have location services disabled. I tried removing some apps, stopped Greenify and Green Power Premium, no difference at all. I also tried different kernels including Dorimanx and Apollo still the same. This problem started as soon as I installed 4.3 version. I am using same apps. It shows that power manager wakelocks all the time keeping device awake. Do you have any recommendations?

Okay, so I decided to flash 4.4.2 but I have a question. Which kernel would be the best for performance and battery life.

Try KT kernel..

I'm impressed by all the profile and tweaks. Good battery time.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] trawel:
So to sum up (correct me if I'm wrong):

- 4.4 is more stable than 4.3

- Performance is pretty similar

- Battery is also rather similar

And with the kernel (sorry for that previous post, I just understood wrong what one of guys had written that's why I thought there's dorimanx for 4.4), stock kernel and that gustavo's kernel are quite similar in case of battery and smoothness?

I hope that will be all for some time and I won't be bothering you guys with my stupid questions for some time ;P
