How to proceed from stock 4.0.3 - So confusing!! :(

Hi, I was searching this thread and came across an old comment of yours.

I did it a bit differently, and am completely new and NOOB to samsung and 4.0.3.

My SGS2 still has 4.0.3, showed no updates found and so I just rooted it before coming to this thread.

1. I have only the CFRoot Recovery, can you please guide me step by step on how to proceed from here?

2. Also, how can I backup ALL hidden partitions before making any major changes? FlashFire application doesn't seem to support 4.0.3, and CFRoot Recovery doesn't have much options.

Thank You So Much in Advance.

P.S. Anyone with knowledge about this can reply. :)

You can follow this thread to install and update twrp to the newest version

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/recovery-twrp-3-0-0-0-t3330457

Once twrp will be installed, make back up of current os by using back up option in twrp

After that, copy zip file of this rom to sd card and flash it using install option in twrp

Hope you do it without any difficulty.

New build is up! :)

Updated ROM Sources

Download

In OTA Menu i included an option to download the fresh build directly from AFH since basketbuild is down. Not a surprise.

For the last time, DO NOT mention the heat while charging. There is already an answer for it on post 2.

And please, don't ask for VoLTE. Already got PMs regarding VoLTE.

How OTA Menu looks like(Can be found in settings>configurations>misc>OTA):

That's weird - try an older build (7.1.1) from RR, version number 5.8.2 or try the latest crDroid build. Otherwise reset your phone into factory state (flash the stock ROM) and start from scratch.

Go Back to Neat Rom

Bro,

my usb connector is damage and cannot be repaired,

Is their any guide available for me to go back from Lineage 14.1 to Neat Rom 4.1.2.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nobby1960:
Only the connector? In this case you only need a new cable. To flash Neat I first would go back to stock ROM, then make a new setup from scratch.

---------- Post added at 05:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:47 PM ----------

Re: Battery drain on 5.8.3

The new build (from 8th of July) is fine - no battery drain :) (Hurray!!!) However I have done few more things as well:

- I have changed my radio to I9100XXMS4 (before I was on NELP4)

- I have done clean install (formatted dalwik, cache, system partition AND internal SD card as well) and I tried to "tidy up" external SD card too

- I have installed only nano gapps (from 10th of July)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi Guys,

Quick question, how does one root this rom...??

I've gone in Developer Options, and all I see is Disable or ADB Root.

I've flashed SuperSU 2.82 via TWRP 3.1.0.0 recovery, get no errors but when booted, it says not rooted.

Ive installed SuperSU from the PlayStore, and it shuts down saying "Root Undetected" and closes.....

Any idea's ??

Cheers, Lister
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nobby1960:
Take the Lineage SU, click here . Don't care about the error 4 message by flashing. SuperSU has problems with the kernel, it is by default on SELinux enforce.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kiva1:
Got same problem. And SELinux is set to permissive, and I try every SuperSu zip from v2.60 to last v2.82... And get bootloops or ramdisk failed during installations..

And I want use SuperSu root, not the Los root.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi Nobby1960,

Thanks mate, that's done it... :) I now have root again... :D And the Apps at least load now...

:) However, due to ROM'ing, I now have the Triangle of Death ;) lol. And using Triangle Away with LOS Root,

the Triangle Away says it needs to use SuperSU. It does it's thing anyway, but still leaves the Yellow Triangle there...

and when ya go to run it again, it says its already done... despite the Triangle remaining.

I've just restored to STOCK, to get rid of Triangle and then going to try ROM, root and remove again...

see if this time it can clear the Triangle afterwards....

I've got the i9100P (NFC) model, if that makes any difference..?? When I get the yellow triangle, it reverts to a i9100.... even using the Away app that doesn't clear the message, still thinks its a i9100. When restored to stock, it comes back as a i9100P. But as said, I shall try romming, and rooting again... and see what happens this time... ;) :P lol.

Cheers, Lister
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TriboDoP:
Hi [MENTION=5273366]Lister Of Smeg[/MENTION]

I am not sure about i9100P but on all my i9100 devices i removed yellow triangle this way:

Being on isorec twrp 3. recovery already:

Flashed latest unofficial LOS 11 (cm11 kitkat which is isorec) with gapps.

use "triangle away" app to remove triangle.

Using again isorec twrp 3. flashed any nougat rom.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] braniels2:
Hello. i have some of lag, when i open the menu or adding the apps icon to main screen, anyway to solve this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] guest4711:
It's mostly a problem of having not enough free memory. So try to limit the number of active background services... New devices have usually more than 2 GB RAM, so they don't have this problem, but we are on 1 GB...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nobby1960:
Yes - install the Kernel Adiutor from here and adjust it like the screenshots. After this the ROM runs nearly flawless. With the app DiskInfo you can observe the RAM consumption.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] guest4711:
Don't think CPU frequency is so important for daily usage. And always running the cpu on highest frequency seems not to be a good option (even with disabling one from time to time). Did you feel some noticable difference on smoothness running "interactive" with full frequency range vs. running at high-speed only?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nobby1960:
The governor mode "interactive" isn't a good choice for our S2 in my opinion. The reaction times are very slow and laggy, despite the highest frequency max and min. Much better is lulzactiveq and a min freq. of 200 MHz, if you don't want it running permanently on 1200 MHz in full performance mode.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] traceur920:
Changing ZRAM?

Hi there, i find my S2 so slow and laggish with anything over Android 4.x, but I'm running every sort of common Google app so I realize it's my fault (in part, at least).

May be a thing to test this ROM without ZRAM? I suspect that, giving up on good multitasking and relieving CPU from the stress of continuosly compressing and decompressing things could perhaps make the S2 more usable.

Would it even boot without ZRAM?

...or maybe trying with a smaller ZRAM value, as 350 MB is about half RAM size, so it's impossible not to start compressing everything.

I'm sure [MENTION=5651185]GreekDragon[/MENTION] has made this choice for a reason, but maybe is a bit user dependent.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nobby1960:
[MENTION=3330832]traceur920[/MENTION]

Did you tried to set the CPU governor from "interactive" to "lulzactiveq"? Take 200 MHz as minimal frequency. It should work much better. Interactive is a brake.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GreekDragon:
Below you will see a boot.img, flash that from twrp.

Default governor is Lulzactiveq and applied some stuff which you can see here: https://github.com/dragonGR/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412/commits/n7.1

With Kernel Adiutor, Go to Virtual Memory and do the following:

i suggest everyone to use the attached modified Kernel Adiutor made by me and the changes can be seen here:https://github.com/dragonGR/KernelAdiutor

Also, don't forget to set minimum cpu frequency to 200mhz according to mr. Jumpin jack flash [MENTION=7513127]Nobby1960[/MENTION] :silly:

If the feedback is good, I will go ahead and update everything for our devices.

So far i haven't noticed huuuuge lag compared with interactive and honestly i want to apologise because i haven't tested interactive that much on s2.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] traceur920:
I've just realized I missed at least one ROM update, as the governor you're talking about isn't even present [and a facepalm could be optimal here].

Meantime, waiting this changes you're talking about to be officially pushed to another ROM update, I've tested the device on slightly modified pegasusq without ZRAM ( but effectively very low swappiness could work) and it seems to be incredibly fast even mantaining good multitasking capability, to my surprise. Going to stress test this a further more, then update and return to the suggested lulzactiveq!

thanks :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GreekDragon:
Wait what? Lulzactiveq isn't present? :mad:

You sure? Because i have it set in KA.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] traceur920:
Oh, maybe i've got this wrong thinking governors were strictly kernel related and so updated/added only with new ROM (or flashing new kernel).

Anyway will update ROM and try modded Kernel Adiutor... as soon as my next university exams will let me do that :eek:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] buddy1234567:
RE: boot.img

Been away for a while... thanks so much for this. The Kernel tweaks are extremely helpful. When I boot into Recovery, I can't find boot.img to flash (though it is in the Downloads folder I'm looking in). How do I flash it?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GreekDragon:
Click "Install Image" in twrp > install.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] buddy1234567:
Thanks for the boot.img tip.

I'm noticing that my GPS is detected in GPS Toolbox, but I can't seem to find any satelites or a location. Is this normal for Nougat? Any ideas why this would be?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nobby1960:
Try the app SatStat to check the satellites, download link is in this post. Go outdoor to test and wait a little while, normally GPS works fine in Nougat.

[MENTION=5651185]GreekDragon[/MENTION]

Thanks a lot, the boot.img with your modded KA plus settings works fine here with the latest AICP build :)

Hi Nobby,

I gladly would flash an earlier version of twrp, if 3.1.1-0 would let me do that...

I installed 3.1.1-0 too and realized I have no possibility to install anything with it. Via ADB sideload I didn't manage to install f. e. 3.0.1-2, I tried with ROM Manager and TWRP Manager, but they both lead me to twrp 3.1.1-0 again, so I end up where I came from. :eek:

Is there a way to help me out of this vicious circle?

BTW, If I reboot to system in 3.1.1-0, it tells me there is no OS installed, but the phone boots normally and works fine as it did before installing 3.1.1-0. I'm just unable to use recovery.

Many thanks in advance!

Did you try to install the recovery using odin? Odin needs a special format for this, but you should find it using your preferred search engine...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KÎÑG™00093:
Use any recovery flashing apps like rashr app or flashify app to flash your recovery.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] toy_story:
You can do it!

If you have a pre-built backup.

Through Odin, install TWRP 2.8.7.0 - stock_kernel_twrp_2.8.7.0-signed-for_Odin.tar

Log in to TWRP 2.8.7.0, install TWRP-3.1.0-0-recovery-the.gangster-IsoRec-i9100.zip and kernel-Lanchon-20160406-i9100.zip

Restart in the recovery.

You will have TWRP-3.1.0-0, you can restore from backup or install a new ROM.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nobby1960:
You can try to flash the attached kernel with a built-in TWRP recovery via Odin. After this flash the newer TWRP image (3.1.0.0). Now your favorite ROM, then reboot back into recovery. You should see now build 3.1.0.0 and you can install GApps etc.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] davy0104:
Hi toy_story,

seems I am too foolish to do such kind of thing. I select the file "I9100_1.5GB-System_6GB-Data_512MB-Preload_by-the.gangster.pit", check "Auto Reboot" and "Re-Partition" and start. After half a second, the Odin Panel shows "PASS" and the following message:

<ID:0/008> Added!!Device Connected

/usr/local/bin/heimdallAction: flash

Arguments:

or:

Description: Flashes one or more firmware files to your phone. Partition names

(or identifiers) can be obtained by executing the print-pit action.

Note: --no-reboot causes the device to remain in download mode after the action

is completed. If you wish to perform another action whilst remaining in

download mode, then the following action must specify the --resume flag.

WARNING: If you're repartitioning it's strongly recommended you specify

all files at your disposal.

Device Removed

And it turns out that nothing at all has happened on the phone, of course.

The Odin panel looks like: see attached screenshot.

Another thing... Is the name of the pit file okay? There's a fulstop between the words "the" and "gangster" – is that correct?

Yeah, unable to say any more right now... hopefully you still got ideas. Thanks a helluva lot!
