Excellent results!

Thanks to lion, I didn't do anything but posting it.

I've too good battery duration, but average on par with 10.x roms. (wich is good and logic)

I'm using today 20131120 TEST2 ROM. For flashing it without the recursive error i flash first cm10.2 kernel, reset recovery, and flash ROM (even if I went from 20131118 4.4 ROM, maybe because CWM from CM10.2 is newer than this CM11 ROM ) and works flawlessly.

The TEST2 ROM is fast and stable. I've then odexed with Odex tool 1beta5 and now it fly!!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dniestre:
The rom is very good with a lot of known issues solved! Thanks a lot for your great works. Please, stay with us!!!

When i try to access to developer options menu it gives FC's.

Running it without a single FC for almost 2 days, battery is exactly the same as my slimbean 4.3 build 2 backup.

Does this mean that we have:

- TV-Out functional

- GPS Working

- Routing audio through a dock

- Wifi tethering (USB tethering also)

- Videocall through Operator (Like the original Samsung ROM)

- Screen auto rotate

?

Thanks and keep the good work!

Internet via Bluetooth Tethering

Hi,

WiFi of my S2 in not working and I am using Bluetooth Tethering to connect to internet, but after installing this ROM I am not able to use internet.

It gets connected but not able to browse :(

Please help,
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Fernandz:
Don't work with dori kernel, dori support to 4.3 max.

Besides, for avoiding metadata_recursive error flash first an CM 10.2 kernel and then the ROM

Installed 2013-11-18 on Dorimanx 9.43v22 fine, all working ok so far.

BLN is not working for me. Although I've never been able to get BLN working on any ROM past stock 4.1.

May there be something wrong with my particular i9100 that BLN only works on stock ROMs?

I've had simrom with dorimanx and devil and neither ever worked
[Galaxy S II Android Development] EricCartmanez:
i always had the same problem :( on cm10 4.1.2 it worked with siyah kernel, then with cm10.1 it didn't work neither 10.2 nor slimrom (4.2 and 4.3) i would really like to know whats causing this on our device since now i gotta use noLED app which eats battery...

maybe some1 knows a solution to this and can help us? :)

P.S tried dorimanX, apolo and siyah on earlier cm10.1 versions, and now this rom/kernel
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Jsilver73:
Do I read this right - this 4.4 ROM is running on latest dori test build?

EDIT: sorry, wrong quote, I'm referring to the post below
[Galaxy S II Android Development] EricCartmanez:
not now i was referring to all roms axcept 4.4... sry for confusion, but soon there might be a working version of apolo as pedestre said he was working on it :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ciaranco:
I've tried siyah before as well with no luck. Used noLED for a couple of days, battery life was awful!

Good to know I'm not the only one with this issue! Once I saw this thread, a 4.4 ROM with custom BLN, I thought my troubles were over :(:(

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Darius_bd:
Happens to me from time to time, specially after recalling Hangouts from whatever I was doing. The only thing that helps me from restarting the phone is using the Developer Option of "hold Back button to kill the current app" and I just kill Hangouts and start it again.

Yet I dont think it's tied to this ROM, also happened to me with the official CM10.2. Maybe someone has a solution in a more general thread.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] flasherruts:
seems stable after Jan 21 update ... did not test art so cannot tell you .. facing problems with cLock ... after I select cLock widget from the widget drawer and place it on my home screen , everything goes blank . All I can see is the menu for opening the app drawer .. no apps .. no apps in the dock . cannot lock my device .. cannot unlock it . I somehow did manage to lock my device .. but then could not get my device unlocked even after pressing the power button countless number of times. I switched off the lights in my room to see tiny light flickerings on my screen at the same time .. disabled cLock for now ... could not place timely alarm clock widget either . had to reboot and solve the issue(not the timely alarm clock issue ) ... any idea how to "completely " disable halo? I mean disabling it so that I cannot even see it in the notification bar . Other than that no serious issues .. Heavy battery drainage .. that's all .. it does not sleep well :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] drorcun:
Proximity sensor is always on when screen locked.. try at dark room there is red light near the front cam. I read that this is a known bug about 21.01 cm nightly. I switched to disaster rom for this reason cause this is the only kitkat rom I like..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nagateja:
I dont seem to have that issue mate. pls check if u have enabled pocket mode in Lockcreen notifications. If yes disable it. Hope it solves

Settings -> Lockscreen -> Lockscreen Notifications -> Pocket Mode.

(this is in the latest Poundrom. If u have shifted roms, sorry then. Pound rom is THE best KITKAT rom for I9100)

Heavy battery drianage? Kernel changed? Because i dont really have such issues.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mosespl:
About battery i can only say the master of long life battery im using stock kernel but on others kernels like dori or gustavo there is no special change. I always set 1400mhz and pegasusq and i think this is optimal settings:p in my case proximity works perfect after lock there is no red light from sensor

No problems here with deep sleep, maybe you should install BBS to find what apps are keeping your phone awake...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] omrisaber:
I've used this rom for 2 weeks, its almost perfect (highest benchmark score btw) but faced 2 major problems :

1. After freezing and hanging, the phone reboots and that's normal.. but after rebooting it shows the 1st boot assistant (language, login accounts, time zone. ..) and most applications data are not saved!

2. Big problem when switching between network modes (2g and 3g) leads to total network signal lost + battery drainage due to the radio service.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] strictly#:
1- Freezing, hanging and rebooting, NO that's NOT normal..

Did you do a wipe, with a script before flashing Pound ?

2- I have also noticed signal loss when switching between 2g & 3g..

To resolve this, I simply unchecked Switch to 2g in Settings / Suspend Actions

I also use ds battery saver pro to manage phone when screen is off for minimal battery loss.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] omrisaber:
1. I said Freezing is "normal" i didn't mean it's ok, but you are using CUSTOM roms, built by devs and not Official by SG. What looks weird is the loss of data (ie. latest widgets disappers, latest whatsapp msg are gone, )

2. I need to switch beteen 2g and 3g, it's supposed to work, not to desactivate .. and the problem is when this bug happens, the RIL service cause battery drain (i've checked that in battery setting)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] strictly#:
I don't see anyone else complaining about loss of data here or random freezing + reboots.......

Also note the Dev of this rom no longer owns an s2, so all updates since 20/12 are untested.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nagateja:
I wish if any nice little developer could fix that annoying halo button in the notification shade because the quick settings toggle button is pushed out to right of the screen almost 99% of times.

Edit: As a matter of fact, Halo can even be sacrificed for a complete beauty of a Kitkat rom for I9100
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mosespl:
only way to fix it without dev is changing launcher. Im using epic launcher prime(pure kit kat look) and its g8. i change dpi too for 200dpi and my icons are really sharp compare to stock launcher.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nagateja:
Changing DPI SOLVES the issue>?? Then in that case even having the stock GEL with DPI changed must work right?

I am gonna give it a try.

EDIT 1: Did try 220 first. Didnot help. Tried 200 now. Looks fine. Draws exactly to the borders but with stock Google Experience launcher the icons look blurred as u might've already noticed. So fiddling around with some new free launchers

EDIT 2: Zeroed on Epic launcher. Cool. Fixed my headache with the poundrom. Happy Me.!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] grafenberg:
You're not alone. They happen to me too. And to add the lost of data is on kakao talk, SwiftKey keyboard, friendcaster pro...

Just sayin'...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] black_dot:
same here.. im in testing faze, but on celeriter rom, hapend yesterday on that rom too, i was on gustavos kernel when it erased user data, i reflashed rom with stock kernel, full wipe(but now i formated preload ) it fine for now.. ill be posting for the results.

btw, i was on PoundRom when issue started (and i never experienced that issue on any rom/device i flashed)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] brack11:
Just doing my walk through other options of 4.4 roms. For yesterday I've been through Omni (infected), SlimSaber, BeanStalk. BeanStalk was the first one that had a good battery life, however, for some reason calendar is not syncing. Probably only Pound has simplicity, stability, and rich of features in one flask.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mosespl:
Im using pound sinc 5 days and before install i wipe data and factory after that i format data preload cache etc and now all works but earlier i have problem with reboots and freezing and hangouts problem(im using for sms) but for now everythink works super.

Here :-

2/04

*Not tested.

*Some minor bug fixes.

*Kernel - removed stweaks, etc. back to CM stock kernel. this may fix some problems.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cegoliba:
Camera

Is there any solution for these? For the back camera, it has zoom on video record mode (1080p). For the front camera, video record mode doesn't work at all.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] iamnivas:
Same here also

Was fine for last 10 days, suddenly today it got frozen, no calls coming/going. did a dirty flash, got message saying /data is corrupted and need to be formatted. did a factory reset and again installed. have to see how it goes...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] relic242:
Working solution with photosphere:

Download:

http://www.mediafire.com/download/bik1hh93ll8jcjd/NewCameraApp.apk

1. in root directory /system/app delete/backup Gallery2.apk

2. install NewCameraApp.apk
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cegoliba:
Nope, this didn't work either. The zoom thing on the video recorder (1080p) section of the camera is still there. I guess there is no solution for this.

Any idea what were the problems on using stock poundrom kernel
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pilgrim011:
Hi lion,

If you could pass this patch to CM devs, that would be great:https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/c/5307/

It is a possible solution for the sd card bug,which is known as music player bug - music stops at random times because sd card gets disconnected.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] nagateja:
Can someone tell what are the significant changes in rom. Apart from kernel change. Is that Halo button in notification shade bug fixed?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nagateja:
So i had to flash it ultimately.

The problems still persists

1) The Quick settings toggle icon in the notification shade is still out of place.

And there is no option to turn off Halo.

2) Camera is still refusing to record videos with front cam. Force closed on asking to record using front cam and kept on FC as soon as camera is asked to open. Had to clear data to run it again normally.

3) Camera still zooms pretty much into content while recording videos.

Other changes are

1) On the first glance, Main thing noticed is that the lockscreen clock is displayed in ORANGE colour, The lockscreen clock colour can be changed within the options given in Lockscreen settings.

2) The location quick toggle in the notification quicktoggles is now multifunctional. Long pressing it would change the tye of location from Device Only - High Accuracy - Battery Saving and is aptly indicated by the change in the icon appropriately. This I first saw in Neat Rom AOSP 2.4.1. Nice little thing

3) The camera now shows the option to store images captured into External SDcard

4) I dint know if this worked previously or not, but Mass storage now perfecty mounts both Internal SD and External SDcard. (And I am on Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit)

Other than that No changes to my Eye.

No Offense. If only these are fixed,, its a 10 on 10 rom. I still dont find a reason not to stay with Poundrom for I9100 :)

Props to devs.

---------- Post added at 01:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 PM ----------

As far as Zoom on video recording in 1080p, it was also found on the Stock GB, ICS and JB Builds from Sammy roms. I think I am not wrong for sure. 1080p had a narrower field of vision(zoomed in) than for 720p. If 720p recording works fine with that flashed fix, then it must be it. I think u should be blaming Samsung for that.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cegoliba:
You got me wrong. I'm not blaming anyone, just wondering if there's any solution for this problem. If the problems you mentioned are really fixed, then this rom will literally be the most beautiful and useful one.

Yes it worked with the front camera. The back camera video record section (1080p) has still zoom problem. I guess there's no solution for this.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] grafenberg:
No wipes?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Darius_bd:
It's not a problem and it has never been. It's a hardware "limitation" or lack of raw power to do Pixel Binning at 1080p (so it defaults to use just the center of the sensor), or the phone wouldn't be able to process a FullHD recording smoothly. Since day 1 that the S2 "zooms" when recording FHD, you all should know by now.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] funkateer2:
As usual only cache and dalvik

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Darius_bd:
You don't have to believe me, you can read the gsmarena review for example:

"A peculiarity is that when shooting FullHD videos you have a narrower field of view than that of the still camera. Perhaps Samsung are using the same trick as Apple in the iPhone 4: the camcorder uses only the center of the 8MP sensor instead of shooting with the whole surface and then scale it down to 1080p. In 720p video capture mode however they use the whole sensor and as a result, the field of view is close to that of the still camera."
