When selecting applications>running services, I can see MAPS and 2 Social Hubs services running in background all the time.

How to stop it from starting? Does Android need them to be run all the time?

Successfully rooted using superoneclick following the step by step guide written by Uncle Benny on the first page.
Installed Original Kernel too. biggrin.gif

I'm thinking of installing TK 0.3.7 ROM But I cant understand the line here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125140

1. Flash a custom kernel with CWM, eg. this

Does this means we have to flash CWM before installing the ROM?

As mentioned earlier, I have rooted using superoneclick.

If I follow the instruction on TK0.3.7 Thread which states 1. Flash a custom kernel with CWM, eg. this

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399

My Current Kernel Version is
KERNEL VERSION
2.6.35.7-I9100VWKF1-CL265340
root@DELL106#2

BUILD NUMBER
XWKF1

So, I should download CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OJV_KF1-v4.0-CWM4.zip, am I correct? as there KF1 wordings?

So, after installing the above, I can proceed with installing TK 0.3.7 RIGHT smile.gif

I'm now on TK ROM 0.3.7, do I have to follow the same steps to remove yellow triangle on startup?http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074930. Is it OK to reflash the Original (Stock) Kernel onto TK 0.3.7 ROM?

Do I need to flash New Camera Firmware Update to resolve pinkish issue?http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098834
Or it has been resolved in the TK ROM?

Appreciate some comments.

P.S: I have replied many times on Android sub-forums, but my post count doesnt increases, is it normal or post into Android Sub-forums doesnt increases our post count ?

You need to flash back a stock kernel similar to the TK kernel to get rid of the yellow triangle. Or if you have the JIG - switch off phone - plug in jig - triangle gone
Flash the rom and see for yourself whether the pinkish tint is fixed ? If not, try the solution I have posted in page 1
I never have pinkish tint, so no idea whether this rom improves it ?

The BUILD info is always there in original roms

beside freezing...theres another apps that really working...its call autostart (paid apps - one of the best paid apps beside root explorer, TB Pro)...it will disable the application from starting after phone boot up...this is the only apps really working..some of those startup cleaner or advance task cleaner doesnt works at all....i tested it...only autostarts disable list of apps from starting (actually theres more option just set it accordingly)

however those application you disable to start from beginning will start once u open it...but if u dont open...it will not start...but if it start u can view those apps running using watchdoq lite and kill it one by one....by this you can save lotsa battery !

Bro, purchased the apps. But I cant see social hub in the list?. So, to set it to disable, we just tick the apps right?

Hi

Followed the instructions here and flashed CF-Root. File used CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OJV_KF1-v4.0-CWM4.tar

To Remove the yellow triangle, I followed here

As per Benny's post, and since the TK ROM is using XXKF2 Kernel, I downloaded the Original XXKF2 Kernel <GT-I9100_XXKF2_original.tar>.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671
and flashed it.

Now, I still cant get WIFI Connected sad.gif . Really need someone to help on this.

Flashing to another ROM is just to verify that your WIFI is actually working ..... u can always flash back to TK after it's done

Bro, I reflashed CF-Root again with CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OJV_KF1-v4.0-CWM4.tar

And WIFI is working now.

What I can see in ettings>About Phone

Baseband Version I9100XXKF2

Kernel Version 2.6.5.7XWKF1-CL265340 root@DELL106 #2

Is everything on the right track?

And how to remove the yellow triangle on startup, I mean if there is other way as if I follow the tutorial and downloaded the stock kernel but WIFI is not working

since you say wifi is OK on kf1 kernel than just use it. flash back stock kernel kf1 to remove triangle
it doesn't matter to use different kernel. I have no issues with kf2 dunno why you have problem.  anyway I never keep those kernel offer by the developer. I always change it to chainfire cf4.
actually easier get a jig so simple just plugin n yellow triangle gone. jig useful for emergency cost rm30 only. see page 1 accessories for Lowyat forumer sales link

QUOTE(Noobi3 @ Jul 5 2011, 07:57 AM)
That is partly true but after flashing , if that is what u get when u go to "about phone " . you are still running on KF1 , not KF2 . Flashing a KF2 zimage to remove the yellow triangle would just mess things up which might cause your wifi 2 stop working . As I said b4 , does TK-ROM replaced any kernel to KF2 , i have no clue but from the looks of it , is still running on KF1 , your ori kernel ............... Best person to ask is Benny since he used it b4

Nvm , seems Benny is here .....  rclxms.gif

Benny

Here is my situation now:-

Baseband Version I9100XXKF2

Kernel Version 2.6.5.7XWKF1-CL265340 root@DELL106 #2 (Original Stock)

How do I change the baseband version to KF1? Do I need to or advisable to do it?

I have also ordered the JIG which is expected to arrive later today.

If you plan to change baseband I suggest change to XXKE4. Download link and flash using odin as phone

Benny

So, I just download XXKE4 Modem as used by XWKF1 "Frankenstein" ROM by Intratech (VillainROM 1.2) (as above), open ODIN, Boot into download mode, select the file and flash, right? Its in .md5 format, do we have to rename it to .tar?
