I am stuck on the samsung logo screen after successful (I think) install - and worse.

Here's what I did: I followed the install instructions - mostly - because I was on Apolo. So because their CWM is a little differrent, I ended up using GS2kernelwipe and GS2romnuke, which I have used successfully many times. The install went well enough from there, though the smaller default dpi is a killer on my eyes (shouldn't have to use droidtext to fix this IMO). After the system was up and running, I downloaded and tried to install SuperSU. It said that installation failed and to reboot. I initiated the reboot and when it powered up again, it stuck on the Samsung screen. I pulled the battery to try again with the same result. I was able to get into recovery and found TWRP, which I never used (never cared for it) and don't understand how it got there when I saw kitkat-compatible CWM before. I guess my CWM nandroid backup is useless with TWRP, huh? I really don't know how to deal with the TWRP wiping choices - scared I am going to erase the stuff I want to keep, so tried to go back to stock 4.1.2 via odin and got stuck in bootloop on system restart. I tried flashing stock a 2nd time with the same result. I found the way around that by directly installing Philz & NeatROM immediately from recovery right flashng stock 4.1.2. Now I will try to install NeatKat again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rrgrrg:
Well sale's instructions was clear .. Use the kk compatible kernel AND FLASH the rom from it ..otherwise dont complain :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Hi sale, very excited on trying your new KitKat ROM. Think this will be the one I dare to try out :)

2 Questions to all:

1.) A Nandroid (CWM) backup from my current NeatROM 5.6 can be restored w/o any problems after installing AOSP Neat?

2.) Is ASOP Neat already usable as daily ROM?

Thanks a lot!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] altojd:
if u r already on kit kat rom u can skip the flashing of compatible cwm.

anyway, that's the right link for cwm 6.0.4.5

What i had done wrong here:

-Re-Flashed Phil CWM and restore my Nandroid backup (Neatrom Lite 5.6), and i had boot loop at Neatrom boot logo.

Thanks all :good:

why did u restore nandroid backup?

which rom do u want to use?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] corvus.corax:
My only complaint is the DPI thing, not the install. I am using Philz and doing exactly as the instructions say on the 2nd round. As I said before, it worked until Supersu. On this 2nd round, supersu install failed again. So, I will live without it.

Since TWRP seems to be a feature of this ROM, Is it okay to overwrite TWRP with the KK CWM?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] altojd:
yes it is...i'm on gustavo's slim kernel cwm version amd everything works fine.

after changing the runtime to art the rom is very fast
[Galaxy S II Android Development] la_malacoda:
Installing supersu fails for me too, and seems that i don't have root :rolleyes:

Any way to fix that plz? :)

Edit. Found the solution by reading FAQ in op, sorry :sly:

Someone could explain me what is ART and what is needed to? :beer:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] corvus.corax:
I was just about to say that. after I uninstalled Supersu - thinking it was a Supersu problem, I tried to install titanium backup thinking it would get root privileges from the built-in superuser. But the message says the phone isn't rooted. Obviously it is......
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dinos3:
Wipe data/factory and now restore nandroid, after that it should not have any problems.

2. And I'm looking for an answer ;)

When art is active, does wipe dalvik/cashe still do something? I did it after the install just in case.

I try to read every post in the threads I'm subscribed to so that I know what's going on.

As this is a dev thread and therefore has different rules to other threads, the (my) problem is with the sheer volume of non-dev posts.

As the XDA mods appear to give Neat threads more slack than others, let's not give them cause to drop in ;)

Has anyone tried running USSD codes

From you device.

dial *#1234# and you will get pda, phone and csc.

Product code

*2767*4387264636#

I get Connection problem or invalid MMI Code

Also on another note is it possible if anyone know to enable the homescreens they wrap all the way around?

Also what is the modem for this ROM, would I need to change it for New Zealand to get better signal strength. Its ok at the moment, but was wondering if I could improve it by changing it.

This feels more like a Q&A thread, where pretty much anyone who can post in dev section are asking questions on where to find what, instead of trying to find out for themselves, or not reading the OP in the first place or simply using the search thread tool instead of posting questions already answered!

But I guess thats a trend now and we have to cope with it:)

Exactly why I struggle with this thread. I use SlimSaber, so following this thread is a natural. But there's so much rubbish posted that I don't (& can't) keep up.

Not picking on whoever posted that last one I quoted, but that's exactly what's garbage. If you can't figure that out, how the hell did you ever get the ROM on your phone in the first place? Or why bother with a custom ROM if you don't want to play with the settings? I don't get it.

Moral of the story... Read. Read some more. And again. If it's not in the OP or the last 10 pages (Yes, read them), and 'search thread' gives no clue, THEN post. If that's how people did it, answers would be 10x easier to find because the thread would be a tenth of the size. :banghead:

Those codes will only work on stock or stock-based Samsung ROMs. They won't work on AOSP/pure Android-based ROMs as they are Samsung-specific USSD codes.

I've seen there is out a new version, I'm on 9th January 2.1 build, do I need to wipe all to upgrade to 2.3? It seems to me there is no detail on upgrade on first post. Sorry for stupid question but this is my first AOSP rom so please be patient I'm a little new to the behavior of these ROM.

Also, I think I have to reinstall all the mods I previously installed when I upgrade (i.e. Google Camera for example), am I right?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] pirate11n11:
Sasa, please change the default dpi (240) to something like 200/210.

I know how to change dpi by editing build.prop.. but 240 dpi makes everything big, ugly and spoils the first impression of this beautiful rom. Some people don't even read the instructions to lower the dpi but will change the rom.

AOSP/i9100/204dpi just don't get well together...

Thanks again for the rom, the most stable 4.4 I have ever used on s2.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chempaxel:
...and then, as previously happened, many people will complain that 200 DPI makes everything too small, or others want 182...

If editing build.prop is too much, just use Textdroider DPI app from the store to modify DPI. Problem solved. Easy.

Adding to the DPI discussion, in my humble opinion a DPI of 217 is perfect. Why you ask? Well, with a resolution of 480x800 pixels on a 4.3 inch screen that's what the phones actual DPI is. Seems like the logical choice for me. :)

as for theme chooser, old tmobile theme engine wont come on slim sources, but a new and better theme engine will be introduced in the future based on trds, cm themes can't be use on this new theme engine,

reason:

tmobile theme engine has some limitations like layout and java can't be touched, some apps are not themeable, so ended up with issues on themes, and we want to eliminate those limitations, new trds are already merged on this rom which is one step preparation for our new theme engine,

I think the camera app included in this ROM is the best I've tried among the various camera apps for AOSP CM11. I have 2 questions about it: exactly what is smart capture? Based on how my point and shoot Lumix camera works, I am guessing it automatically adjusts things like exposure, ISO, etc. depending on lighting conditions. But I could be wrong about that.

And, how to find this app's developer, in order request a 2 or 3 shot HDR blend be added to it, if possible. That would be a major step up for this already great app.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hopper8:
Nope, you're confusing DPI and PPI. DPI default for ANY hdpi phone is 240.

PPI is the number of pixels per inch on the screen, dependent on resolution & screen size (Yes for i9100 it's 217).

Nothing wrong with using 217 as your DPI, but no, it's not default /standard.

If you want further confirmation of what I've just said, search for Hardcorepawn's post a few days ago about it.
