No Force Closes

This is how I did it

Enter CWM, wipe data/cache, Mount system then format system it (in mounts and storage)

Flash the rom (1.8) then flash selectable slim_gapps.zip.

Roboot all goes smoothly without any FCs
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Guegs!:
Just tried this with the AIO gapps. Didn't work. Downloading the selectable gapps now and will report back.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] damnation333:
Yeah, just install the slim gapps. Something funny with that AIO pack.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
Hi HardCorePawn, you need to add these commits to the kernel for SELinux to function, the FC's people are getting are due to permission problems, nothing to do with which gapps are used.

weekly 1massive battery drain in 7hours after updating from 1.6

Hi all,

someone else recognized this heavy battery drain with 1.8?

- only updated with 1.8

- did wipe cache+dalvik cache

- installed weekly 1.8

- installed dorimanx 9.41 as used before

- did wipe cache+dalvik cache again

- rebooted

> in 7 hours battery was drained

> battery information was stating that Android OS was using it mostly

> SetCPU was not lower than 500 MHz > CortexBrain is/was disabled

Now back on 1.6 with the same method as described above and everything looks good for now.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nerven:
definitely. 15% in 30 minutes of average use.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] guido_glx:
Not me, battery behaves just like it did with v1.6

You should try BBS to identify what's draining your battery.

Hello , i just installed this software and i can say it's perfect . i installed it with dorimanx kernel but i have 3 questions : 1. How can i see battery percentage like original firmware 4.1.2 from samsung ? 2. how can install original samsung task killer ? and 3 how can i install original samsung luncher ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] guido_glx:
1 - System settings -> Interface -> Status bar -> Battery icon and bar style

2 - I've read it's not necessary to use a task killer

3 - You can set "Launcher" as default home, in Nova settings

Help needed

I really like the look and feel of this ROM but it is very hard to make it work smoothly. I do full wipe, format system, but I always get settings FC, partner FC and other FCs. I do it several times then I give up back to RR 4.2.2 ROM. I'd like to stick with this ROM, can anyone help on how I stop getting FCs?:eek:

Thanks

openPdroid patches

It has been mentioned several times in this thread the correct order for preparing your phone for Slim. Did you mount System before formatting it? wipe Dalvik/cache/preload? An easy way to be sure you have your phone clean is to use Hawkerpaul's GS2ROMWipe

The other common cause of FCs is the incorrect Gapps. Make sure you have the right Gapps for your build, use the most recent Slim_minimal_gapps.4.3.build.1.x if you are trying to use a 4.3 build.

There have been several reports of possible problems with flashing just the AIO/Aroma Gapps, so flash AIO/Aroma but then flash the Gapps_minimal afterwards.

openPdroid

It's been a while since I posted any openPdroid patches. But Mateorod is still going strong on the Pdroid manager thread.

Just flash the update in CWM and then download Pdroid manager from the market. This app is a great way to take control of the privacy settings on your phone, and is so much more advanced than privacy guard.

I have included patches for Build 1 & Build 1.8
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jeancca:
I'll do as suggested, thanks!

EDIT:

Worked ok, it really needs mount system.

But I found another issue: the ROM does not restore wifi settings from google account. Is there a workaround for this?

Anyone else got video bug?

If you touch the screen whilst recording is in progress it breaks the camera and gallery.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
No... those are all Samsung specific things that require Samsung Frameworks... not available on ANY AOSP based ROM.

Thanks... will look into it... tbh, I'm still not sure why people have so many issues? I just don't seem to be getting these FCs??? :confused:

I just installed Weekly 1.8... and flashed the 1.8 AIO... no FCs on startup... no boot loop etc... followed my standard process:

1. reboot recovery

2. mount system

3. format system

4. Flash ROM + Gapps

5. clear cache

6. clear dalvik

7. reboot

So maybe like you say, it is apps attempting to use specific permissions conflicting with SELinux causing FC's... only, I wouldn't know and cannot tell... because people DON'T POST LOGCATS OR BUGREPORTS!!!?! :mad: :rolleyes:

As mentioned on PM... does not happen on i9100 as it is compiled with the Gallery2 overlay that disables this:

<bool name="disableTouchSnapshot">true</bool>

And I've just tested it with weekly 1.8... nothing happens if you tap the screen while recording video... and the pinch zoom still works...

FCs right at the start

Hello,

I'm installing Stable SlimBean 4.3 on my Galaxy S2 - GT i9100.. however I'm getting FCs right at the start. Here are the steps I'm following to move from 4.2.2 Build 8 -

1. Factory Reset

2. Format System

3. Wipe Dalvik / Cache

4. Flash Slim-i9100-4.3.build.1-OFFICIAL-909

5. Flash Slim_AIO_gapps.4.3.build.1.x

Am I going wrong somewhere? Everything FCs - Calendar / Keyboard / etc.

---------- Post added at 10:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 AM ----------

Same here.. all FCs right at the start...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MystaMagoo:
Understood :D

Maybe something happened while it got ported for the I9305 then?

I'll go check............

Is there a way to install an app like EXtweaks or STweaks. I'd like to modify speaker or headphone sound....
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Kai Disobey:
I think not without installing Custom Kernel like Dorimanx.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zakk75:
Yes, but SlimRom doesn't work with dorinmax kernel. I've tried it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] m1trand1r:
you can install Stweaks or Extweaks from playstore but Slim kernel doesn't have support for them....so it won't work....but in Viper4android you can modify headphone and speaker settings as you like....it's quite powerful as an alternative ;)

Beam-ed through your brain via//Android 4.3.1:p//
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] damnation333:
Dorimanx does work with Slim. Quite a lot of users have Dorimanx installed. Also have a look at KangBang kernel. That should support STweaks, too.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zakk75:
Does KangBang kernel works with slimrom?

Have you any plan to integrate BLN support? I don't like to use custom kernel on the girlfrend's S2 cause stock is great for this phone, but she want BLN, so i use KangBang instead, but for what i see stock is better then any custom kernel for S2.

I've also had the soft-brick issue on 1.8 weekly.. Here's what I've done. Please tell me what did I do wrong.

What I've done is:

1. Nandroid backuped my current CM.

2. Factory reset, clear cache, clear dalvik cache, mount and format system.

3. Ran 3 CWM scripts - ROM clean, ROM nuke, ROM wipe.

4. Installed SlimROM ( Slim-i9100-4.3.build.1.8-WEEKLY-1229).

5. Installed gapps ( Slim_AIO_gapps.4.3.build.1.x).

6. Rebooted, configured my existing account, let google reinstall my apps.

7. When all the apps were installed I rebooted and got a soft-brick (black&white SGS2 logo). Restarted the phone and the same occurs. No boot. Tried to flash another kernel (Dori and CM) but still - SlimRom won't boot up.

make a cwn backup, wipe data, reboot. after booting up to the rom, restore back your data with advance restore in cwm.

Hi guys,

Just trying to get a bit of feedback. Does anyone use Droidiris? If so do you have constant crashes when searching images when panning across? I'm trying to work out if it's an app bug or if it's crappy Samsung driver related.

Google+ No Longer Works

I just installed today's new weekly and the newest Slim_AIO_gapps.4.3.build.1.x I'm now getting Google+ errors both at bootup and at random times while my phone is running. Not a big deal, just thought I'd report it. After some struggle ;), I was able to delete the APK and reboot. Google+ is gone.

Hey,

had some camera freezes going on over the weekend. Not sure if I got the alarms in the logcat though, as I was in a rush to get something on video.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
To everyone still having fc's, ask yourself why the galaxy s1 i9000 kernel got selinux updates to bring it up to date with 4.3 and the i9100 kernel didn't? Our kernel is very old 3.0.65 and there has been many commits added to selinux on the kernel side since then. If you check the logs when you get these FC's it will show you that dalvik cache is not writable, to me if dalvik cache is not writable there must be some affects to performance.

I build my own ROM and I own many devices including the i9100 and just last week I decided to bring it up to 4.3 but I ran into this fc problem that many people are having, I tried the procedure that hardcorepawn mentioned and I also tried the slim gapps but no luck, so after doing some research I found out that there have been no updates to selinux in the kernel.

After applying the commits I mentioned to hardcorepawn I have no FC's and my wife's phone is running flawlessly, I'm using pa gapps which are 198mb or something I have also installed many ROM updates without mounting and wiping system and everything is working perfectly.

The flashing procedure hardcorepawn mentioned doesn't seem to be working for anyone and tbh makes the ROM feel buggy with those FC's.

I suggest everyone kindly ask hardcorepawn to add those commits to the kernel and see if they make a difference. What harm is going to come of it. Its only updating selinux in the kernel.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Hey mate...

I'll give those commits a shot... but I think I have discovered why /cache/dalvik-cache is unwriteable...

Filesystem Size Used Free Blksize
/dev 396.7M 48.0K 396.7M 4096
/mnt/secure 396.7M 0.0K 396.7M 4096

/storage/sdcard0 11.5G 3.8G 7.7G 4096
/mnt/secure/asec 11.5G 3.8G 7.7G 4096

Seems our 98.4M /cache gets swamped when using AIO Gapps :( Basically, I think it just runs out of room while trying to DexOpt all the system apps... and "Bad Things"™ happen :eek:

I am fairly sure it is just space related... as I have made the AIO archive "smaller" by removing some of the larger 10+meg apks, and the AIO flashes without issues...

Note: this is /cache/dalvik-cache which is for "system apps"... /data/dalvik-cache is used by "user apps"... so you can still install apps from play store without issue...

I am continuing my investigations...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
Before adding those commits 98mb of 98mb was used after adding the commits 75mb is used and 23mb left.

As I said I'm using pa gapps which are quite large, I was also getting FC's with slim gapps before.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Then something else was the result...

/cache 98.4M 98.2M 200.0K 4096

That is after putting in those commits... and recompiling the kernel...

I even tried a PA Rom... with full PA Gapps... and got this:

/cache 98.4M 98.4M 0.0K 4096

thanks for the effort, but it simply comes down to too many /system/apps for the i9100 cache :(

Notification sounds stop working at some point, I still cannot figure out why... After rebooting, they work again. Does that happen to anyone else?

Enviado desde mi GT-I9100 usando Tapatalk
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Are they custom notification sounds? If so, where are the notification sounds stored? Are you connecting the phone via UMS to a computer at any point? (or unmounting the sdcard in some other way?)

If sounds are on sdcard, and card gets unmounted from system (by connecting via UMS etc)... all those files because unavailable to the OS... this causes custom ringtones/notification/alarm sounds to generally get reset to "unknown"/"none"/"silent" etc
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] guido_glx:
They are the notification sounds packed on the ROM, not custom ones.

I'm not connecting the phone to a computer.

I'm not unmounting the sdcard.

When this happens (right now, for example) pressing volume up or down doesn't produce any sound either.

If I play any mp3 on music player, no sound is heard.

But if I turn on spirit FM, Iit does make sound... so weird! :(

Hi, why can't I install the openvpn binaries? I allowed SU permissions but it says it can't mount write. See attached picture. Can anyone help? Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Have you checked "Profiles" and/or Quiet Hours?

:confused:

Seems it's command to mount the /system partition might not be compatible with the built in mount command... try mounting it ReadWrite manually using your favourite root explorer, a terminal emulator or via ADB... then try installing openVPN...

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system

you can make it ReadOnly again with

mount -o ro,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system

EDIT: seems it might be an app issue?? :confused: I manually mounted it, and it was still detecting it as RO?? I used the other "OpenVPN Installer" app from play store (made by "Sascha Volkenandt") and that worked fine... then when I opened the 1st OpenVPN installer app (made by "Friedrich Schauffelhut") it detected that the OpenVPN binary was installed...

Suggest you contact the app author and ask them to investigate
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] guido_glx:
I have checked them, both are off, profiles and quiet hours...

Would it be of any use if I upload here the zip file of the bugreport?

Anyway, it seems to happen only on my device, cause nobody else has reported this...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fusionjack:
