Hi [MENTION=2222292]rINanDO[/MENTION],

I see you've missed the exFAT kernel panic fix again: https://github.com/TALUAtGitHub/and...mmit/0dc727fe94ea18cda800a8b8fe1c5b446956224f
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rINanDO:
Good catch. I'm trying to keep up with i9300 since I got one from a friend. Trying to build i9300 and i9100 on one machine and same repositories. I didn't build i9100 yet after first build i9300.

TWRP cant mount microsd or OTG when big files

Hello,

first of all, thank you very much for your work on i9100!

I have an issue with installing this rom on the stock phone (Android 2.3.4 ) . It stops in step 10, installing "lineage-16.0-20191220-UNOFFICIAL-i9100.zip" via TWRP - can't mount media

I used the guide from main post, just changed the ODIN with Heimdall (using linux), the instructions found this thread

Problem is that I can't mount Micro SDcard (2GB card) when the "lineage-16.0-20191220-UNOFFICIAL-i9100.zip" file is present. The "select mount" says "micro SDCard (0MB)"

I also tried USB OTG. Mounted (almost) empty USB (FAT32) and the mount was successful. Then I copied ROM zip file to the USB, put USB back to phone OTG and can't mount. Phone reboot to recovery didn't help. But when I delete ROM zip, the USB OTG mounts fine.

Anyone had similar issues?

Also when selecting USB MOUNT, on my Ubuntu, it just shows and 8,4MB partiton (kind of CD-installer). So I can't write directly to SYSTEM

1. Boot your phone into Download-mode (Volume down + Power/Standby + Home and hold for 10 seconds).
2.
3. Connect your phone via USB to your PC.
4. Press volume up on your phone, ODIN should detect your phone.
[B]5. In heimdall (S2 in download mode):
tar -xf i9100-LOS-16.0-Emulated-Storage-TWRP-3.3.1-1.tar.md5
heimdall flash --repartition --pit i9100-LOS-16.0-Emulated-Storage.pit --KERNEL zImage --RECOVERY recovery.img[/B]

7. After succesful flash, reboot phone into Recovery:
- Press Volume up + Power/Standby + Home and hold for 10 seconds.
The phone shuts down.
- Repeat Press Volume up + Power/Standby + Home and hold for 10 seconds
Phone boots in recovery TWRP 3.3.1-1.
8. Swipe to Allow Modifications
9. In TWRP 3.3.1-1 you need to format partions
- Wipe -> Format Data -> Type [yes]
- Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Select:
* Davik / ART Cache
* Cache
* System
* Non-emulated Storage
-> Swipe to Wipe
10. Install LOS-16.0 + Gapps or MicroG
[B]-> can't mount "micro SDcard" or "usbotg" when "lineage-16.0-20191220-UNOFFICIAL-i9100.zip" is present on media[/B]
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gsedej:
I solve the "micro sdcard" issue by actually formatting it and creating FAT16 partition.

I was able to mount "micro sdcard" and install the "LOS 16 zip".

The first boot takes quite some time (10 min?), but it works.

BUT when installing "open_gapps-arm-9.0-micro-20200122.zip" the phone boot animation never stops. even after one hour.

I tried installing LOS and then gapps few times (each time a bit differently) and each time when i install the gaaps, the phone never boots.

An idea? Am I using wrong gaaps?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Catfish78:
Hello,

is your download ok? Did you try to download it again?

Regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gsedej:
I checked md5 and it's ok, so the download was ok

$ md5sum -c open_gapps-arm-9.0-micro-20200122.zip.md5
open_gapps-arm-9.0-micro-20200122.zip: OK

When searching this topic for "gaaps" there were similar problems, but unsolved (user gotzinger)

While not having gapps, i was able to install F-Droid and from it Aurora store, which allowed installing play apps.

Still did anyone succeed installing gapps? What are the exact steps?

(platform ARM (32bit), android 9, micro (need of gmail), etc..)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SethGeckoXDA:
Always choose nano. You can install the rest via PlayStore.

I installed LineageOS 16.0 and GAPPS (open_gapps-arm-9.0-micro-20200117) both at the same time (option add zip) and they work for me.

It took a lot of time for first boot (like 20 min or more) and Pixel launcher didn't work (Trebuchet works fine).

Hello!

At first thanks a lot to rINanDO for your work. It´s the first time i´ve flashed a custom rom (build #20, at two phones actually) and it works great, super job! My questions are if there is a way to delete pictures directly on the phone, if i delete them through the gallery or any other way they seem to be deleted, but after a reboot they´re there again. The only way that works for me is to connect the phone via usb to a pc and delete them on the pc. It´s the same behavior on both phones. The second is if there is a way to raise the volume of the music player, it´s louder on stock rom 4.1.2 and i for me it would be great if i could listen a bit louder. Sorry for my bad english and thanks again for this great rom!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Naruke:
Hello guys.

First of all, thanks for all the job you are doing for us.

I installed this Rom on my Galaxy S2. Everything went fine but as I can see the phone is really slow even on simple stuffs and I have a big battery drain.

I saw many videos of users using this and they dont have this lags etc

I have to do something specific, maybe, to improve it? I even installed Nano GAPPS just to not have many Google Stuffs inside.

Thanks

Dirty flash over previous release, no problems at all. TWRP 3.1.0
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Catfish78:
Thank you for your help. I´ve opened the updater-script, but it is not the same as described on the Website. I´ve opened the script of 15.1, too, it´s the same. An older build of 14.1 (i had saved Slimrom) showes the described lines.

What i found out is that my testphone was shown in Windows as something like "omni9100", Maybe i reflash it with an Version of 14.1 first, and try it again later with the newer Version again. I´ll let you know here here later :) .

Sorry, it records a stereo sound normally with left and right audio channels correctly at videorecording or it simply fakes a stereo sound from a mono sound deceiving people like it was with LOS 14.1 ?

Hello,

with reflashed 14.1 it was the same trying to get 16.0 saved into the phone: error 7. Changing the script ends with the problem, that the new packed zip-file isn´t compatible with TWRP.

Is there anything what i can do to resolve the issue with testing something?

Can someone test it with a newest 512GB microSD card?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vdhero:
I highly doubt that it's going to work. I've heard that some people get 64gb or 128gb sdcards to work. But I don't recommended doing it a it'll give you a HUGE battery drain
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hedgehog99de:
Battery drain is no problem. I'm using a 256GB SD card and I have a battery live time of 20 hours. I think there is no difference to smaller cards. But I have no 512GB card to test whether it works.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JaLoou:
I had checked Galaxy S2 with 128GB microSD card:

It works fine with Samsung's official firmware Android 4.1.2;

It was worked also with LOS14.1 but with some errors and I got 2 corrupted files.

I had not test LOS15 and LOS16.

Now I'm considering to buy 512GB microSD card for Galaxy S2 but I do not know it will work or not. Retailers where I live, do not give newest 512GB microSD cards even for short test in a retail shop. So, I'm in doubts...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vdhero:
This depends on the hardware, not the software so it should work but you still shouldn't get it anyway, 128GB, in my opinion, is too much. Those two corrupted files could just be due to the SDcard is low quality.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JaLoou:
Thanks for your reply. It brings me some more hope that may 512GB microSD card will work with Galaxy S2 also.

---------- Post added at 12:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:04 AM ----------

Usually it depends on both: hardware and firmware. It is the one of reasons why I did asked the question in this topic.

I got the corrupted files on microSD card only when I did used LOS14.1 or RR5.8.2-5.8.3 on Galaxy S2.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] K9100ii:
You shouldn't always consider gender when deciding something, especially when considering software such as this ROM. What matters is the quality of the ROM and code, not the gender of whoever developed it.

Also, someone asking for what gender someone is typically leads to an attempt to date when the correct gender is replied back, so you should expect people to think that this is the probable intent of this question.

Hi

It is a default setting. You can change it:

It doesn't help.As before, only the external map is displayed.When you click on the files folder in your phone, it crashes. Previously, there was an instruction here, it was necessary to delete a file of the storage.xml type through the recovery menu in explorer, the exact name of it and where it lies I do not remember now.

Это не помогает.Как и раньше - отображается только внешняя карта.При клике на папку файлы в телефоне - вылетает. Раньше была здесь инструкция, надо было удалить через рекавери меню в проводнике какой то файл типа storage.xml, точного названия его и где лежит не помню сейчас.

I found information on solving the problem, I will try to do it, I will unsubscribe later.

Surprisingly, Android stores the flag determining whether storage emulation is enabled or not in /data, presumably to allow upgrades from non-emulated to emulated modes. The flag is stored in /data/system/storage.xml: non-emulated storage is signaled by the presence of XML attribute primaryStorageUuid="primary_physical". To enable emulated storage: just edit this file, remove said attribute, and reboot. It is that simple.

The problem was solved by deleting the storage file.xml using Explorer in recovery twrp the path data / system / storage.xml

If this problem appears not only for me after the firmware, then I think this instruction should be raised in the header.

Проблема решилась удалением файла storage.xml, сам файл лежит по пути data / system / storage.xml. Удалил с помощью проводника в рекавери twrp

Если данная проблема появляется не только у меня после прошивки,то думаю эту инструкцию надо поднять в шапку.

I've just installed this ROM on my GT-I9100 but the result is not satisfying at all. :(

The UI is sluggish, even scrolling right from the Home panel is slow.

Any setting in order to speed up the UI?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Catfish78:
How long did you wait after the setup was ready? Google may optimize in background many things with fully used cpu. It depends on your choice of which gapps you choose, too. Not flashing gapps will speed up the phone. Use some alternative stores for getting some apps you need.

And please, don't forget: the phone was build in 2011, until now everything is blown up extremly. Many users are happy with the speed of their S2, so maybe there is something going wrong in your case with the installation?

Regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] RNiK:
Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I flashed GApps. The installation was smooth.

I'll try to wait a little more.

My question was a "general" question, I mean, maybe Android 9 is simply too much for this device. Maybe a better trade-off is an older Android version (ad es. KitKat) in order to speed up the UI.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Catfish78:
No, i do not think Android 9 is too much. The modern apps seems to be more problematic. I don't want to go back to 8 or 7 or unsecure older versions. Rinando did a good job.

Slow with GApps

Thank you for this amazing work! I love to play around with this! It runs smooth as butter, untill I install open GApps, anyone else having this problem? I used the Pico package for Android 9 ARM. Not x64.

Keyboard, Playstore, everything opens after seconds of waiting. I do think this is an open GApps problem, since without it runs as smooth as possible. But my S1 running Android 7 runs fine with open GApps. Strange strange.

I did all those steps:

1. Copy lineage-16.0-20191220-UNOFFICIAL-i9100.zip to your Micro SD-card before flashing.

2. Using ODIN 3.07 Pit: i9100-LOS-16.0-Emulated-Storage.pit UPDATED ON 15-7-2019 due an error in previous PIT

PDA: i9100-LOS-16.0-Emulated-Storage-TWRP-3.3.1-1.tar.md5

and follow tutorial on page #1

My phone is in a boot loop...

I thought it was the incompatibility with

Open Gapps

mentioned on post #966 onward. I redid all installation process without installing

Open Gapps

but a still get boot loop.

Please any help would be welcome.

---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 PM ----------

I have already posted this yesterday, but the posting seems to be gone somehow?!?

Again I want to post some issues which are not mentioned in the discription:

1. HDMI out doesn't work. (There is no output signal.)

2. System integrated Cast to chromecast (screen mirror) doesn't work. (It connects to chromecast and in the same second it disconnects.

3 Chromecast streaming in ChromeBrowser doesn't work, too. (very improtant!!!)

4. Device does not recognize when plugged in car dock. ps: solved. This was an USB hw issue

5. huge battery drain when powered off (tested on three S2)

6. When powered off and connected to AC, problems to boot. (It always changes between original green battery logo and new white battery logo, but doesn't boot.)

7 Sometimes, when powered off and then connect to a charger the device starts booting.

8. Error message "system UI stopped". (after boot, or when waking up the device)

9. Sometimes the screen keeps black (but is on) after boot. (I think the UI keeps sleeping)

10. Proximity sensor does not work for my 3rd party apps. (works only with system phone app)

11. A lot of downloads in the background. I don't know what it is (not Playstore app updates) but it slows the device down. Maybe massive GMS Updates??

12. "Find my device" admin rights re-enable itself.

My Recommendations:

1. I have disabled all "Google emergency services" with the app "Servicely"

Since then issue No 5 +12 seems to be solved (pico Gapps are installed)

2. I have installed Universal GMS Doz. (An alternate way to stopp Google service wakelocks)

I feel the background data traffic is less now.

3. I have uninstalled around 10-15 useless system apps. (I'm not sure which of these apps are from the System, and which maybe came with pico Gapps)

Hi, sorry for quoting myself;)

I don't know why, I only could boot my phone without a boot looping if I Install lineage-16.0-20190707-UNOFFICIAL-i9100.zip (Build #14 2019-07-07) 1st, boot and then update to lineage-16.0-20191220-UNOFFICIAL-i9100.zip (Build #20 2019-12-20).

I did not test yet Open Gapps on my phone, only rom. I have two Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 and same issue.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] rickmar:
Hi all,

i've installed for the first time the lineage-16.0-20191220-UNOFFICIAL-i9100.zip im my recently purchased Galaxy S2 (nostalgia :P ) with no problems. Just stick to install steps as described and it wen smoothly. I've come from the 4.1.2 samsung OEM rom. Did the TWRP flash and the ROM next.

Then I installed the GAPPS (open_gapps-arm-9.0-aroma-20200311) - 9.0 - 32bits (Hope it's this one) AROMA , and installed what I wanted. When rebooted the system got very slow... But then after a few minutes (10 maybe) e became smooth as before.

- Any one knows if it's possible to remove GAPPS withou installed the whole LINEAGE 16 ROM?

- And the battery live? what do you guys think of it? For me it dies very fast even without using it much. Maybe battery need replacement?

EDIT: i left the phone just standing with ~80% and in the morning got 0% (turned off) anyone experiencing this??

Hi Ricardo

No problem with battery. I am using Build #20 2019-12-20.

Is your battery used or new?

Test it with Ampere
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rickmar:
Hi leitefresco,

- The battery is used. But i think the short time I had the phone with sotck firmware (JB) it was OK.

- I will try to factory reset install the lineage 16 ROM again and GAPPS (nano) and try to check if everything is allright. And will do a look at Ampere as you sugested (thanks!)

- Do you you have GAPPS installed also, leitefresco??

Regards,

[Galaxy S II Android Development] leitefresco:
Hi

No Open Gapps or any other Google aps yet, only rom.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rickmar:
Hi there,

- i've just installed the rom and only basic GAPPS (nano). But i think the battery is still not good. must wait.

- The thing I notice is the phone get's to slow and about 10 minutes to become "normal" after installed GAPPS.... Without the GAPPS it's was ok from the beginning , no hickups. That's why i'm blaming the GAPPS...

- But of course Google Play is needed....
