I was Updating the firmware via Odin to MG8 but got the NAND write failed error while flashing the sboot.bin file, unfortunately i checked the NAND erase all and got stuck into the boot logo. I then downloaded the 4.2.2 version Russian Update from samsung-updates.com and flashed it via Odin. Everything went right and the phone is alive again.

I was surfing through forums about the 4.2.2 updates and it was all around that 4.2.2 includes performance issues but i doubt that. The firmware is sometimes laggy and even the Benchmarck score has fallen from 11k to 10k which obviously is not a good thing after a "performance" update. Apps seem loading slowly but every other thing is fine. There were also sayings that the TouchViz will create some issues with 4.2.2 update and that the Galaxy S2 Plus I9105 is the first Galaxy Device to get this update.

Anyone of you experiencing some same? and if any developer know some bug fixes please do contribute...
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] GuestK0057:
I have no problem with the 4.2.2 rom. Still on MG8. Was the first build that came out. But first think i do was root and debloat the stock rom. And i also install xtreme core and xtreme booster. Very good work for ram management like v6 supercharger but easier to use. So every time i have used only the half of ram. That means the device is very responsible and snappy. And battery live allways over 3 days. (Not so many 3G use, or music, most use it like a PHONE)
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] Post Reader:
there are issues with some apps, force closing on facebook and facebook messenger... RAM is doing good in 4.2.2
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] corduroy84:
MG8? That's only for the P version. Lucky you it didn't hardbrick your phone, mate :eek:

No issues with the Russian MH4 for me. In fact, the 4.2.2 totally eliminates the slight laginess I had with 4.1.2. Battery life is definitely better.

I don't care about benchmark scores as it doesn't reflect real life usage but according to a thread here, users have posted about their scores increasing compared to 4.1.2.

But, like digitaliban, I am rooted and I've debloated a lot of preinstalled stuff.

Perhaps you should wipe and reflash the firmware again
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] Post Reader:
i soft brick the phone while flashing MG8, i then flashed MH4, it is causing some problems....
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] GuestK0057:
Sorry man that you flash MG8 it is only for P Version. I don't check that you are on non P Version. Flash again with the right rom for your device. I hope it works for you.
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] Brian_SGW_CM9:
How to debloat?
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] corduroy84:
Same as freezing but you uninstall completely. Via Titanium Backup or Root Uninstaller. Or you could just use a root file explorer and go to system - > app and delete the apks and odex of the stuff you want to remove. A lot of the Samsung stuff run at boot, so it does make a difference removing them. Otherwise, just freeze them.

I use this spreadsheet as a guide: https://spreadsheets.google.com/spr...SENVeXlqUm5vV0E&single=true&gid=0&output=html
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] vahid8910:
after flashing 4.2.2 again and a reset factory about 250 Mb is missing

it's like the ram thing

web sites say it have 1GB of ram but when you buy the phone it's about 700MB,so what happened to 300MB? "it's used by system" they answer.

OK,but 500MB of this 700 MB is always full.

i don't care about amount of ram as long as my phone works fine and don't know how much is good for better performance and i know these task killers does nothing.

but what is about this 1GB of ram so important?this is not a PC, it runs it's OS or not?
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] corduroy84:
There are quite a lot of write ups you can find explaining how Android manages it's processes and RAM management.

4k recording is on lte not in 3g.is it true?

if 3g version dosnot have 4k recording then ..there will b patch to record 4k records?let me know
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SgtGoldy:
Snap Processor - LTE & 4K recording

Octa Processor - More Ram & 4 Cores but no LTE or 4k

It boils down to processors not 3g
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CLARiiON:
Nope, there will never be any patch. Hardware limitation.

BTW, do you have a 4K TV or a monitor? If not, I find it hard to understand why would you need a 4K. If you have a 4K display, then it makes sense for you.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thekoRngear:
May be he has. May be does not. Who cares? Let technology spread out. Otherwise we would have stuck with 3GP and low bitrate MP4s.

I totally agree 4k content atm really rare but so did 1080p. Did people sat idle and stuck with 3GP recording in the fear that OMG! 1080p is so huge!!!!!!! I would not buy a 64 GB card for that.

4k is a nice addition. And to your other point-before 1080p displays came out all the 720p display like S3 were able to shoot and playback 1080p. Did anyone question why 1080p on a 720p native display? No.

I have seen two 4k samples and yes I am excited. Specially from the phonearena sample the moving tree leaves looked outstandingly crisp. And if I am the one out of 10 million people who cares about 4k it wont stuck with me forever. With more devices gonna have 4k native [already started to] display and storage like 128 GB 4k will become regular thing. And to be regular stuff like 1080ps or 720ps initiatives like this will naturally occur.

People just cannot keep other people discouraged from a nice tech evolution. If they would succeed people would never move beyond 2 GB memory card and low bitrate 3GP or .rmv video contents and shoot straight out the people who consume ogg music files.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sohebq:
4k video was just a gimmick I feel. If you dont have device to play 4k content like pc or Tv, there is no point of 4k. Its good that Asians won't get it :P
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nabilsweet007:

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SgtGoldy:
Costco had a 4k TV playing the same movie as a 1080p TV and I could genuinely tell the difference. But unfortunately my wallet is a bit too small to early adopt the 4k TV's right now :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BarryH_GEG:
I'm as much for future-proofing as anyone else here. But where is 4K content coming from and how's it being delivered? Content upscaled to 4K (EG: HD TV/Movies originally captured in 720/1080P) aren't going to look any better than they would on a 720P/1080P TV or monitor. They’ll most likely look worse. 4K content is huge. All the ISPs are already *****ing about what video's doing to their networks. How long did it take for Blu-Ray to become a standard? And the only Blu-Ray that looked good was what was natively captured in HD not the upscaled crap like 50's I love Lucy episodes. So for 4K to become meaningful content producers need to start capturing in it. That 'aint gonna be happening fast as the only ones that benefit from 4K as it stands are the TV manufacturers and they aren't significant enough in the food chain to drive standards forward. So we'll probably all be on the Note 4 (and more likely the N5) when UHD (4K) gains any real traction. Because traction requires native content.

So would I want 4K in the N3? Sure, who wouldn't want extra "cool" stuff for the same price. Would I ever use it to record anything? No, the files are huge and would have to be downscaled to my 1080P TVs, monitors, and devices making natively captured 1080P look better anyway. Am I going to run out and buy 4K playback devices? Absolutely. As soon as at least 1/3 of the content I playback is available in UHD.

An interesting article...

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Impuls3101:
Wow 4k looks really nice. Phonearena posted the sample 4k video but it was useless because youtube converts it to 1080p. The native 1080p video that they posted looked better than 4k on youtube. I can't wait to use 4k. It might not be every time I go to record something but if I love being able to have that option.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apo11on:
It amazes me how short-sighted some people are to say stuff like that. You and Clariion, 2 posts above you, as well as many other people in different threads...Videos, recorded with your phone's camcorder are memories for life. Do you record something only to watch it right away and be done with, never watch it again? 20 years ago, when there was only VHS available - if someone offered you a device, which can record video in DVD quality, would you say "no" to that, because your current TV can only play VHS resolution?...

You're saying "I don't want to record much better quality video just because right now I don't have a TV, that can play it." . In a few years 4k TVs will be a standard in every house, and you'll be watching your wedding's video in sh*itty 1080p, because you chose not to get 4k camcorder just because you didnt have a playback device for it at the time...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techweed:
I can't believe some of you don't see the benefits of 4k even if you plan on never getting a 4k TV. While recording in 4k, just your ability to digitally zoom while maintaining excellent quality should be worth the feature being present. It's basically lossless digital zoom (up to a point of course.) I can't imagine anyone not wanting that.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] HickHack:
Hi All,

My app is required to update certain information to my server every 15mins or so. This data is being successfully posted, however on reviewing my phone bill, the code is forcing a new GPRS connection with each post.

I use the ConnectionManager API to get a handle to the optimal/current connection:

DWORD dwCurrentStatus;
ConnMgrConnectionStatus(hConnection, &dwCurrentStatus);
if (dwCurrentStatus != CONNMGR_STATUS_CONNECTED){
ConnMgrEstablishConnectionSync(&sCI, &hConnection, 30000, &dwStatus);
}
// Make outgoing internet connection.
hInternetSession = InternetOpen(TEXT("My App"), INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG, NULL, NULL, 0);
// Connect to the server
hServerSession = InternetConnect(hInternetSession, szServer, INTERNET_DEFAULT_HTTP_PORT, NULL, NULL, INTERNET_SERVICE_HTTP, NULL, NULL);
if(hInternetSession == NULL || hServerSession == NULL){
return false;
}

After each post I close the internet handle ( I am fairly sure this shouldn't drop the GPRS connection):

InternetCloseHandle(hHttpSession);
InternetCloseHandle(hServerSession);
InternetCloseHandle(hInternetSession);
hHttpSession = NULL;
hServerSession = NULL;
hInternetSession = NULL;

On application SHUTDOWN I allow the connection to close:

ConnMgrReleaseConnection(hConnection, 0);
if(hConnection){
hConnection = NULL;
}

InternetCloseHandle(hHttpSession);
InternetCloseHandle(hServerSession);
InternetCloseHandle(hInternetSession);
hHttpSession = NULL;
hServerSession = NULL;
hInternetSession = NULL;

Has anyone else had similar problems or is aware of what I am doing wrong?

Cheers

i have a small app that changes gprs connection when one of them is down, but i have found that the connmgrreleaseconnection call does not work, and the current connection will not die, you may have the same problem

I bought skyrocket within first 3 weeks of june 2012, and do i have to wait until 3 weeks within june 2014 to upgrade phone/ contract to end? or have they changed their wait time?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] azraell33:
Yes, and No. You can pay a early termination fee and get out from under a contract. The fee will be based off how much time you have left on your contract. You can upgrade anytime by buying a phone outright. If you want to avoid the extra fee then yes you have to wait until the anniversary date to upgrade or get out of contract. Sometimes they give special deals and let you upgrade to a newer phone early. You should call AT&T and ask what your options are. They don't bite.

Download some AV or reset phone or download tools like "system monitor" and check for strange process.

I know there is apps like folder mount or similar apps to move any apps to your sd card (or at least the data), and I KNOW an international TW rom has native apps2sd. Anyways, does anybody know if aosp based roms are ever gonna support moving apps to your sd card natively?

Great ROM with lots of interesting customisations. And very stable for me, running it with Franco's r13 kernel at the moment.

The only problem I have is in Phablet mode I am unable to use right status bar drop down (where toggles are) when sliding down only left status bar expands. I did a full wipe, installed latest nightly and flashed slim aroma gapps. Tried this combination with Purity ROM and no issue there. Anything else I can try? I really want to stay on this Rom.

And also if it is not much to ask, could you kindly add Dark toggle as well please?

Then it will be an ideal 4.3 ROM for me.

Does this works in Phone mode for you? Also does the side nav bar appears fine in Phone mode? Or nobody is using it anyway? I would prefer nav bar on the side in landscape if it is possible, otherwise I will just use GMT gestures and hide nav bar totally.

This ROM is really growing on me. Great performance!

Does anyone else use the Reddit News Free app? For some reason, after I click through about 10 threads, it FCs on me, SIG11 in the logs. I've come from a clean install, tried default kernel and other kernels, all the same results. Uninstall/reinstall, wipe data, nothing works.

If someone else is using this app, can you let me know if you're getting the FC? I have no problem on any other 4.3 ROMs with this app.

Edit - tried other reddit apps… reddit is fun and reddit sync. All FC after clicking on 10 or so threads. They seem to crash on loading web pages inside the app.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] brees75:
That's a memory segmentation fault, I will look into it but it sounds like the app was trying to allocate memory being used by another process.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] sttovo:
Thanks brees, if it helps, I just updated my post, happening with other reddit apps, seems it only happens when I try to open a web page within the app, if I stick with reddit.com based data/threads it's fine.

Edit - The error stacks when i get the FC list libwebcore.so library. Maybe that's the culprit or at least a place to start?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] brees75:
Let me guess, you are using the aosp browser? I think the notorious -O3 manta bug still exists in 4.3. See if it happens with another browser.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Syk69:
I'm pretty sure that's what it is. Happens to me in Pulse news reader which uses aosp browser and FCs. Never crashes chrome beta though ha.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] sttovo:
No, never have. Using Chrome.

Edit - to be clear. The reddit apps I'm using have a built in web viewer of some kind. I can open the link in a regular browser like Chrome, but I usually just view the pages within the internal viewer. So maybe that's some variant of the AOSP browser?

Example -

Edit2 - Confirmed I get the FC in Pulse too.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] duarian:
I can confirm I get FCs too with reddit news using aosp browser. This didn't happen in Robinson's aokp pub..but yeah this is definitely happening to me as well
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Syk69:
Any browser using android webview will FC as brees said its a known bug with 4.8 toolcahin with o3 opts on a15 chips. That means pretty much all browsers except chrome, Firefox, opera next (which is variant of blink engine used in chrome).
