Sure, As been mention before it seems that for the S2 the flashing sequence is very important.

"To avoid bootloop you have to flash Gapps after Xposed"

For example you are updating to new version;

-Wipe system, cache

-Flash rom

-Flash Xposed

-Flash Kernel (optional)

-Flash Gapps[/QUOTE]

I follow the steps recommended doing a clean installation and it works but forgot to flash SU Update 2.46 and when flashed by itself with Apolo Beta 6 I went back to boot loop.

So then did a dirty flash only Wipping Cache, Dalvik , SYSTEM and started again in this sequence:

Notice I did not wipe DATA this time.

Rom, SU Update, Xposed Module Zip, Apolo Kernel, Viper Sound Lp and finally GAAPS..Rebooted and works.

Have to mention that before do this also had bootloop flashing Viper Sound file, so that is why included in my Flashing sequence.

Not sure, but read somewhere that busybox can be the cause of this random reboot but im not an expert, so just mention it.

Hope this help someone as I know how frustrating it can be. ☺☺☺

BTW, the world "please" makes us sound more polite....Thanks !
[Galaxy S II Android Development] r4Rok:
Guessed it right, the correct sequence to avoid bootloop on S2 is to flash Gapps only at the end of flashing: For example, the correct sequence should always be like this:

-Wipe system, cache, dalvik cache, data, and format /system

- Flash RR_x Rom

- Flash SuperSU

- Flash Xposed (optional)

- Flash Kernel (optional)

- Flash anyother mod (optional)

- Flash Gapps

- Reboot!

I want to try this Lp rom.where can i find the latest cwm
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ruubs:
Is it possible to flash this with TWRP?

Im trying to flash my dads SGS2 but i cant seem to install CWM 4.0.1.5 properly?

Because when i try to flash this ROM it fails

EDIT:

After i flashed CWM 4.0.1.5 and then reboot to recovery it starts PhilZ touch 5 Recovery again

What am i doing wrong? :s
[Galaxy S II Android Development] RuffBuster:
Your CWM is to old. You need 6.45.0 +

I personally like Phllz recovery to flash a new ROM from. It's a nice stable build and I've never suffered any issues using it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ruubs:
Thanks for the fast reply! Could you tell me where i can find that Philz 6.45.0+ CWM ?

Allready fond it! Thanks anyways

Ok, i reinstall everything again

facebook app now seems to work, i didnt change the dpi this time, so maybe the facebook FC issue could be related to dpi? i dont know, but now its working.

maybe its already been posted as a bug, but vibration does not work good, when you recieve several notification (whatsapp i.e) the vibration is weak or incomplete.

besides that i love the rom, keep the good work!

edit: with aosp keyboard (included in the rom) i cant write using gestures. With google keyboard from playstore or swiftkey works great.

wooohhhh!!! first time in dirty flash i got music force close, any idea how to fix this?... ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] RuffBuster:
Did you wipe cache and dalvic from recovery? Also try wiping the data and cache for the misbehaving app from inside Lollipop. If it's a media app try also wiping data and cache of "media storage" from "apps" in "settings" from inside Lollipop. Restart phone before trying to run any apps again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] RuffBuster:
Finally for round to flashing. HD recording working here on latest 5.3.7, front and back camera.

Did a FULL wipe install of 5.3.5 with Apolo 8 beta 6 for testing purposes, and flashed 5.3.7 with wiped cache and dalvic, again using Apolo.

I do find there has been a small drop in performance between 5.3.5 and 5.3.7.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] @d@ms1lv3r:
5.3.7 with apolo beta 6. This is awesome! Everything working great, no problem! Perfect!!!

yes mate i do wipe cache and dalvick, that's what i always do when i make a dirty flash but now lately when i update to 5.3.7 my music apps is unfortunately stop.. i make clear data then reboot wipe again but no luck.....anyway where i can find this apps in system i will try to push music apps from 5.3.6 version.. ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ayesse:
There must have gone something wrong with the flash, because for me the music app is working great
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Skyline:
I think its a kernel problem...i checked with stock kernel and then apolo beta 6

Stock kernel don't have this problem.....

i dnt see any other issues caused bcoz of this..so its fine for me
[Galaxy S II Android Development] RuffBuster:
The stock camera app works with front and back on HD video, but itself is very limited and view finder is a bit small.

When using another camera like Camera Next front video won't work, but back does.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Zokom:
Video recording 5.3.7 stock kernel cmw 6.4 recovery (i dont rememb wich one it is) works fine, I have stock camera app and I can record HD videos without problem, maybe its a little bug butg when I record a video and close the camera the phone is a bit slowy for 2 minutes, then it start to work fine again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] apoklyps3:

Have the same problem with wifi as someone has mentioned-when i turn it off android battery stats shows it remains on. Didn't test if it actually eats the battery and stays on or it's just a bug in stats. I'm on 5.3.7-20150227 with gustavo's kernel, clean install
[Galaxy S II Android Development] droutis:
First of all, thanks for this great ROM, and for keeping our phone alive!

I have noticed that after installing 5.3.7 version (clean or dirty flash, tried them both), and after installing whatever theme, all works fine until reboot.

After that, UI crashes, and it comes a notification that Lollipop reset to default theme, cause of too many theme crashes.

Anyone else noticed that?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Xipe_Totec:
Clean flash of the last version 5.3.7 and, at first boot, everything is ok.

When I flash superSU last version it ends in a bootloop.

hey varund, sry for asking again, but I tested ambient display the last day.

And the first times the display turns on when I get the phone out of pocket after getting notification. Then I found out that it was coincidence that it started. Display turns on 4- 5 times (1s - 10s - 30s - ...), but not in dependence of proximity sensor.

The Pocket Mode I mean activate or deactivate display everytime I get it out or in the pocket, whether a notification is present or not.

So these are two different features. Or am I wrong?

Greetings...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Malhavoc Blackdrake:
You need to flash a KK/Lollipop compatible Kernel in Philz, reboot to the new recovery, and then you can wipe everything and flash RR.

Watch out that with the KK/Lollipop kernel your old system will NOT boot (you would need to reflash Philz first). I suggest to do a Nandroid backup first, just to be safe.

Regarding which kernel to flash, I can suggest you to Apolo, for example: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/kernel-t2291756/post41742325#post41742325

Hi guys,

I recently started using RR again and I now have 5.3.7 installed correctly. One thing doesn't work for me however: when I want to change the backlighting of the hardware buttons on the bottom of the phone (back and menu), the default setting always comes back (5 seconds).

I cannot disable the backlight and I cannot change the duration of the backlight. This worked perfectly fine on the last build I used which was 5.3.2 or something. Is this a bug? Thanks!

It works great on S2 with lollipop based roms and gives me a noticeable performance boost. Especially with the latest release, but with 5.3.5 it is even almost perfect!

It is easy to flash and you can insert it in the rom installation process if you you do not use any other init.d mods!

The next is that with stock kernel 3g and h+ not works properly fine. If used long time WiFi and switch back to modem, no connection to 3g avaliable. Must reboot again.
