Thanks for replying.

I installed the version 8.43v76 because I used to have dualboot and it worked fine (KK and JB). It doesn't work with only KK?

(Explaining better: I forgot how to change the kernel without full wipe. When I install a new ROM with full wipe and then install a kernel it works) :confused:

Thanks for replying and for the suggestion. I like Dorimanx because the option of reseting the fuel gauge. From time to time the battery behaves werdly and this reset fixes it for a good time (In fact I believe that when I flash a new ROM version this problem begins).

It has been a long time since I updated the ROM, so I tottaly forgot how to change the kernel without full wipe. :confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
You can flash the kernel through recovery, but I would recommend using kernelwipe script by [MENTION=4272718]hawkerpaul[/MENTION], if you have been using a different kernel for any amount of time. You don't need to wipe anything. Dorimanx 10.44v008 has dual-boot also
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KiraNoas:
Thank you very much! I've just flashed this version, used the kernelwipe and restored my backup. :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zorglub!:
In my opinion, the same way you change recovery...

Grab the kernel u want in zip format, reboot in recov and installe the zip....

shld work ( I did it in my other phone GS4...)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KiraNoas:
Yes, it worked as you said. I had flashed the wrong version, so the phone got bootloop. Since I flashed the write version and restored the backup, everything is working. Thank you a lot. :D

Just tried Apolo_CM.7.1 Regular with configurator, and still no BLN working..BLN is only thing i need from my SGS2 thats realy important :):)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] FrizzerACE:
I don't know why with you it don't work. I use this since firs time and works very well. For me is very important too.

As you can see this is how it looks. Maybe trying to reflash kernel.

installing Neatrom

i want install Neatrom v8, now I have installed Slimsaber.

Must I install at first Neatrom v6.4 at first and later update v8 or can i Flash direct v8.0 without v6.4 ?

While Neatrom v6.4 is 790MB and v6 only 152MB.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fubo73:
You are confused a lot!

v6.4 is JB and comes from stock Samsung ROM with Aroma configurator to select between options.

v8.0 is KK and comes from Slimkat, no Samsung bloat, no options.

So if you are on SS, why should you go back to v6.4? :confused::confused::confused:

Go with v8.0 directly (that is not too much different from SS).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MooonShine:
ok thank you very much. must i install cwm or twrp is working too ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fubo73:
Your question is not clear. There are a lot of CWM and TWRP recoveries out there, so be more precise.

I used to flash using Apolo kernel with TWRP recovery. For KK, use Apolo 7.x.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MooonShine:
I have installed SlimSaber with twrp, also i have now twrp (kitkat compatible) .

i want install NeatROM but i read cwm to use for installing.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ssanjy:
You can flash the AOSP NeatRom from TWRP as well... But since you are on a different ROM ensure that you go for full wipe....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fubo73:
NeatROM OT reports info for the ones coming from stock Samsung ROM. You are not on stock, and you are already on KK (and of same Slimkat family), so you can safely use your current TWRP to flash NeatROM v8. If you will want to go back to JB, I suggest to flash a JB recovery.

Superuser

I had same bootloops on standby so i did factory reset on this rom. Now everything works great but have some problem with integrated superuser app. The app is not showing any program confirmation and there is no log in app, but most programs with root access works ( greenify, titanuim, dormency, etc.. ). I notice that BBS stats wont work, it doesnt have root premision. I instalateted SuperSU from app store , and then i have confirmation form SuperSU for new running programs with root access.. Is there anyway to fix intagretad superuser( reinstal only superuser), without factory reset.......

Hi, I have followed installation guide(after ROm installed 'Slim-Addons-full_gapps.4.4.4.build.9-20150107' ) but after I open Google Play, fill username and password and click next it says "There was a problem communicating with Google servers. Try again later."

I can't open browser, it crashes immediately.

I had previously official Samsung 4.1.2, rooted.

Do I need to flash some specific kernel, current is 3.0.80+ ?

No Bug Fixes?

Hey chaps. I finally decided to move to 4.4.4 but i noticed no fixes for bugs. Am i looking in the wrong place?

One annoying bug am not able to ignore is having images dithered in the browser. Meaning when i open a browser window which has images like amazon.com per say. The images load as weird dots and shapes instead of the actual correct image. Any idea?

And do you guys have any recommendations other than this rom with xposed?

If I understand the problem, you should try dolphin browser, perhaps the only browser that can display correctly (multiple) images in amazon web site.

Gents, I have attached two screenshots of my problem. I simply searched for BMW images on Google and when i swipe through the images, i get the following, and sometimes I need to swipe back and forth twice for the image to show up. A similar problem applies on almost all GIFs too.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GreekDragon:
Seems Browser problems. Can you try please other browser?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amnya:
The problem extends to more than browser, today i opened the GPS application used in Riyadh and it crashes as soon as the map tries to show up, instead of showing the map, i get a screen which clearly looks like an incorrectly rendered screen then it crashes soon after. Give it a try if you are running this ROM to confirm my findings. Could there be a problem with the OpenGL drivers on this ROM or something of that sort?

Application is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mireo.ada

which kernel?

Battery?

how stable?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pilotn:
I don't know about YouTube video with browser, I always use YouTube app for that, but I didn't hear about this problem on this rom.

ROM is very stable and batter life is excellent.

I use last JK Gustavo kernel.

I suggest to give a try to this rom.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] RamHa:
Some updates for this rom? Just no LP, LP is not good enough for S2, and i did try it almost all on XDA! Just KK and 4.1.2 are good in evry aspects(well, not all versions, couse the latest one has some problems, just search.) But... Sales Rom is smooth, just maybe should add new cam and also new cam drivers , so as Mali upated drivers too... But, overall it is nice and smooth rom with ok battery life as well. I tryed it with DorimanX latest for KK, it is really OK. So, wending days are passed so far ;) :D take it back! ;)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Naudiz:
Hi!

AOSP NeatROM hasn't been maintained for a long time now. I wouldn't recommend it if you really want to make your S2 "new". It was released long before Stagefright security issue became prominent and also before the infamous freezebug was fixed. Probably there are other unfixed issues. I would recommend trying CM12.1 or another CM12.1-based rom, which is still well maintained.

Not sure what exactly you mean by the USB-storage stuff. I never had problems with this, no matter if stock or AOSP rom.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maraxion:
Hm havent checked that one out yet. Is that a lightweight rom and with good battery life?

The USB storage im talking about is that the S2 has 2 different storage locations(3 if you add the optional sd card) The primary is 2 GB and thats where you install programs. In addition it has some sort of 11.5GB storage USB that can only be used when connecetd to a computer for photos etc. So its basicly a non usable USB stick on your phone. I was hoping that there now was a way to use that storage as a primary storage and for apps.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Naudiz:
CM ist probably the most used custom rom of all. In its deafult config it's pretty lightweight, yes. The amount of bloatware can be controlled by which gapps package you choose. Battery life is normal, I'd say. Don't forget that this phone is 5 years old now and its battery is pretty small compared to current-gen phones. You won't get any miracles with any rom.

Yes, S2 uses 2 different partitions for apps and storage.

The /data partition is 2GB by default and the rest 11.5GB are mounted as /storage/sdcard0. But I don't understand, why it's not usable. Normally all your downloads, camera pics, etc... basically all your files will go to sdcard0, so it should be usable.

If you plan to install a custom rom, you might want to read a little bit about repartitioning, to make the /data partition bigger than 2GB and probably also the /system partition bigger than 512MB.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maraxion:
Thanks for the reply. AS you said some files wil go the the USB memory, but then again its the programs that fills the primary memory first. But if I can repartion as a HDD drive then this wil be alot better :)

Iv changed the battery a few times and understand its not great, but iv understood some builds use a lot of battery. And since some are 4.4.4 and some 5.1 I figured that the newest ones might demand more of the phone and then use more aswel. AS I stated I just want a basic build where I can use my 10 apps. I almost never use it for music or video, just as a "phone with benefits". :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Naudiz:
I understand. I suggest you read a little bit inside this thread to find out more about partitioning on the S2. I currently have 6 GB for my apps instead of 2 GB. I'm also experienced with creating PIT files, so if you have wishes about custom partition sizes, let me know.

Then I would suggest you try out CM12.1 with a minimal gapps package and see how you like it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maraxion:
I see, your great :)

But to be sure here, its seems thare are 3 partitions? The system(memory?) 500mb And this is better at 1GB?

Then increase the app memory from 2gb to 6b seems good. Then I have the last internal memory of about 7gb left which is good.

But not to be a noob but iv never flashed a phone before in any way, and if im to use a kernal, rom and also re-partition it, could you give me a heads up in which order I should to this? From resetting phone to finish. Iv read some guides, just need to find out in what order I should follow em :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Naudiz:
Actually it's 4 partitions that are interesting for repartitioning:

/system (default 512 MB): This is where your rom (Android) is installed. Also system apps and other bloatware goes there. It is mounted read-only and thus can only be modified with root-access. It is recommended to increase the size for newer Android versions. How big? It depends how much bloatware you want. I only use very basic Google apps like playstore, calendar, etc. and install the rest via playstore, so I currently use 768 MB for /system.

/data (default 2 GB): This is where your userapps will go (the ones you install from playstore and other sources). Also their data (settings, savegames, etc.) goes there. Also updates for system apps will go there, as /system is read-only. So if you have e.g. Gmail as a preinstalled system app and it is updated vie playstore, it will consume the same space on /data as if it was a userapp.

For apps nowadays, 2GB is really small. 4GB - 6GB are more like it.

/preload (default 512 MB): This is a special partition only used by Samsung stock roms. Samsung uses it to store additional bloatware there. When using AOSP roms, this partition is not needed at all. This is why many users decide to shrink it down to minimal sizes. You will find different opinions about this on xda. Some say that 500MB of extra space is not worth the trouble. Also you will have to repartition again, if you ever want to retrun to a Samsung rom. But I like to have a clean system, so I resized it to 22.5MB only.

/sdcard: This is your normal storage. All the photos from your camera, your downloads and personal files go there. Its size is the "rest" of the other 3 partitions, so the bigger they are, the less space you have available here.

I hope it was understandable :)

For more detailed instructions on flashing etc. please contact me via PM, this doesn't need to fill this thread ;)
