Currently using AngeloROM 1.2 , based of KF2

U can check your camera firmware by doing this

*#34971539# and then press Phone/CAM FW Ver Check.

Then you can either get the apk from Samsung Apps application on your phone. Or download the firmware update apk which I have attached to this post. The application should tell you if your camera needs the update or not.

To get from Samsung Apps Click on Featured Tab then click New. Then choose the Galaxy S2 Camera Firmware update application. If you can't find it go to search and type 'camera' or something.

Samsung Apps -> Categories -> Utilities  and then "Galaxy S2 Camera Firmware Update"

Heard the latest is OCEE09 as of a month ago

Here is the link if u got problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...ght=pink+camera

thanks for your good reply nod.gif
will post updates if i managed to solve the pink spot problem~
for now, i know that
1) it must be in lowlight environment and must be sunlight to appear, fluorescent wont appear
2) enable auto contrast will reduce the pink colour
3) choose anything other than auto white balance will fix it right away

ip 5 vs SGS III, long way to go.
neway, i wonder whether Ultra Crystal o Oleophobic SP will have much different in viewing. dislike crystal coz can c fingerprint n oily, but i wonder how much oleophobic decrease the color of viewing hmm.gif

yes its normal. The theory is d same with HDD bro. we won't get 100% of the advertise capacity. some of it muz reserve to the system..
SD card indeed is external mem. card smile.gif

oleo also can see fingerprint, just not so visible, it's not anti fingerprint, just resistant only. I'm using oleo now, but in my opinion, the best one is still the naked screen, it's perfect in terms of clarity and smudge/fingerprint prevention icon_idea.gif

not only system, it's also due to conversion~ i'm sure u know 8kb is 1kB right? its not 1:1 conversion, it's 0.8:1, if you open ur sd card and view properties, u can see the capacity exactly as advertised 32GB, just that the GB actually is 32Tb~ an old 'conning' technique doh.gif

Help! I installed facebook but I don't want it to connect online without my knowing... I just want to use it when I want to... I don't want it to pop out notifications from time to time

Also, how to disable gmail chat? I added google account to get my contact list (which works perfectly), but that enables gmail chat and i dunno how to disable it..

Thanks!

1.    Disable Background Data syncing : Settings > Accounts & sync > Untick Background data. Example is Google contacts, calendar which you can sync manually when the need arise.
2.    Disable Auto-sync : Settings > Accounts & sync > Untick Auto-sync , example Gmail and Facebook updates unless you need to be on top every minute

After many reading i still have some doubt.

1) If i flash my phone to litening rom 1.5 using the single tar file my phone is still not rooted yet?
2) If not rooted yet, what type of root is compatible and suitable for the litening 1.5?
3) After rooted, i need to flash back the stock kernel KF2 to get rid of the warning sign?

Thanks. Appreciate ur advice.

apparently you didn't read enough, go to the lite-ning 1.5 rom thread in xda forum and read the first post carefully

Root won't wipe your data. Flashing ROM will if the developers stated their ROM is a wipe version.
It's really hard to see the yellowish on the screen coz it will appear only on grey background with lowest brightness. I just replaced it with a black theme. FYI, I have yellowish and pink spot on my phone but I did not care much coz a day without the phone is more suffering and furthermore only on certain condition it appears not all the time.
*
+1

as long you dont meet the conditions, the effects wont appear, put some nice wallpapers other than gray lor =)
an update on the pink spot:

1st: its a camera firmware related problem, i read through many threads in xda, some fellas went and upgrade their firmware and obtained the pink spot problem when last time they dun have, so i'm sure it's firmware(software) related.
2nd This means that IT CAN BE FIXED budden i cant find anybody sharing their firmware nor anyone managed to successfully dump their camera firmware to phone, so right now there's no way to fix it unless u can find a firmware or wait till samsung pops out an update for msia in samsung apps.

hope u found these 2 versions
OCEE09 has no pink spot
OCED11 has no pink spot

3rd: as long as u do not meet the pink spot requirements, i will not appear, so let me ask you, how many times do you go and take a picture of your white wall and in low lighting conditions? obviously u will on flash, and guess what? i just tried, when u on flash, and take a pictar of your wall, the PINK SPOT DISAPPEARS rclxm9.gif

Some info ---> *#1234#

CODE (PDA) is android and all the applications that come with it. (The archives/folders will be named after the version of this file)

MODEM (PHONE) is the firmware of the wireless chipset of the device and will operate you WiFi, Blutooth and 3G/2G/GSM connections. (ie Radio ROM)

The CSC includes connection data for the broadband networks as well as apps that are only available in certain languages/intended for a specific area.

All can be flashed individually by Odin ... in the respective column

Just found out that the phone do not have internet data usage unlike iPhone.

Is there a useful widget to download to monitor this?

Reason being I'm tied to 500MB per month, trying not to cap it.

Hi Benny, pls add me to the list of sgs2 user. Got it on Wednesday noon, without having to wait nor q overnight tongue.gif thanks to bro. Alie here on the forum who post it to Penang. 2030 sme no microsd nor any freebies., but inclusive of courier. No time to check in till now.

This is my first Android, was on iPhone before this (2g, 3GS, 4, ipad2 which I'm using to type this) I have to say iOS is better in terms of ease of use n the 'look' of the interface n apps seems more professional. while Android is better in configurability.

Photos seem to be grainy even at iso200. Iphone4 pics seem better. Is it because of the screen/resolution?

great! i got from bro alie on monday night too rclxm9.gif the pictures is grainy because of the screen's vividness, transfer the pics to ur computer and you can see it's different

Enough with the which handphone is better. People choose the SGS2 for a reason. people choose the sensation for a reason. there is absolutely no point in fighting about which is better etc. For heavens sake, its only a PHONE! Can people please just stop asking which is better etc? i mean it has been posted and asked and answered many times already. just search the threads and previous ones to get your answer. Enough with the fanboyish bs. I'm getting sick and tired of it.

Guys, how is your GPS, I saw in a review that its GPS bad compared to HTC Sensation..

cant disagree with you, reviews did say htc sensation is better than the rest, locking time is the same but accuracy htc is higher up to 5m compared to sgs2 18-20m.

budden here's my real life experience, the gps works great, i dont see myself placed somewhere far from where i am.

if u plan to get a phone for the gps, then go sensation, this i will agree with you nod.gif

i posted that to troll celcomaxiata but u kena instead doh.gif

k la i reply u nicely since u reply nicely also lol
1. usually i do use my whole palm, nearly 3/4 is covered, dun wanna drop it >.<
2. like i said, fiz thing other ppl see is the screen, they dun care it's sharp or not, they will only wow at the brightness and the colours. of coz practical use i got no problem la, but different ppl have different 'eye stamina'
3. the 2gb is for installing those small apps, but these can be easily moved to sd card. what i meant was the sd data that some games need to download first to play, usually gameloft games and they're very big and u have to place them in the internal memory to work.
4. yea camera is good, except for the pinkspot problem, htc sensation no pink spot right?
5. bootloader i just say oni lol, i know htc going to release smtg to unlock the bootloader later la, i know it's troublesome bcoz a few of my frens had htc and i see they root take a lot of time...well i'm actually a big fan of changing roms, one big reason i bought sgs2 is coz i could customize and mod it as a hobby u can say nod.gif
6. battery life based on reviews at gsmarena, sgs2 is better tho, maybe the roms/screen brightness plays a part hmm.gif

anyways nice comparison u have there nod.gif

Guys

Just need some input on 3rd party launchers.

I have tried LPP for quite a long time, and now considering to get a new laucnher to replace the default SGS2 launcher.

Any recommendation? ADW or GO Launcher....etc
*
i have adw but i didnt install because i like go launcher ex so much! rclxm9.gif
based on what i read la, adw has more options, u can customize the widget's icon text colour, rotate etc, have 2 separate wallpapers together and a lot other stuffs, very good and very complex.
or u can just use golauncher ex and make things simpler brows.gif
oh yea u shud try the regina(not vagina) launcher, it has some nice eye candies icon_idea.gif
