this thread move soo fast, i've a question.. which one i've do first?? ROOT or FLASH or just need to FLASH rom which provide Root feature inside (like litening)??

actually i want to flash litening rom, so which step i should take now my galaxy in stock rom n not root yet before..
*
advise is flash cf-root kernal so you get cwm, then use that cwm make a nandroid backup, then only you flash lite-ning rom, restore the nandroid if you face problems, or if u dun have anything to lose, straight flash lite-ning la, ntg wrong wan~


Guys, i have to say, Cognition 1.31 rom + jeffrey speedfrey 2.0.0 (release) kernal = fantastic battery life! H on for 8 and half hours while downloading manga with mangawatcher while 2 hours me reading manga with twitter refresh every 30 mins, k9 every hour, viber on and auto sync on+normal usage sms/call/viber and i still have 60%!! shocking.gif so far it's the best battery life i've ever seen, and whats more i'm in an area that dont have very good signal, sometimes dc, using DiGi doh.gif Seriously try the 1.31 rom and that kernal, dam i like what i see thumbup.gif

here's the link to the kernal: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213339
i also wanna thank the dude who posted 'anyone tried this kernal yet' a few days ago notworthy.gif

Ayways now my turn

first phone: 2006 w800 - father bought it fer me after much persuasion and also coz the family needs more than 1 hp user, one of the best modding phones at that time, we were basically flashing scripts typed out of hex codes, you can modify the hex codes too and making themes modifying lots of stuffs, new camera drivers, music drivers, display drivers, the camera driver they modify till can adjust shutter speed somemore shocking.gif and can modify the RGB value also shocking.gif . -now passed down to my younger sis

2nd phone -2009nokia n96 given by my uncle as present for spm results, cant be modded much sad.gif getting the 17 capability dev script was tough, enter factory 2 times, started to lag very badly after awhile and the button start to come off-still with me coz it has the famez GARMIN GPS altho its dam slow >.<

3rd phone 2011- The Samsung Galaxy S2 thumbup.gif , been stalking this phone since it was announced at WMC at February 2011 and i was attracted by the trailer, that time was looking at alot of new phone too. First phone i use my own scholarship savings to buy, never used my parents money since i entered university, so i treasure this phone very very much wub.gif buy all the best protections and accessories for it wub.gif like the saying goes, u will treasure smtg you buy with your own moneh more~

parents was very strict with me and money so only got 3 phones to date tongue.gif

anyone encounter 3G Watchdog data is not accurate ?

you got use task managers? or the advanced task killers blabla, coz if u somehow closed the 3g watchdog service, it will stop recording. it's either 3g watchdog or most probably is maxis overmeasured

actually there's not much improvement in any aspect, not that noticeable anyways since samsung never releases a changelog, some reported yellow tint fix, better battery life, these 2 i cant confirm with you coz i never had problems with tint nor does i feel my battery got better at all with kg6, but i'm definitely sure they improved the graphics card coz the bugs in my hd games are fixed once i flash kg1 (apshalt 6, GoF2)

im not too sure about this but like nokia, if you take out the battery after a while it will sort off wipe out system memory, like the date and time you need to set it up again. MAYBE, just MAYBE thats what happened. LOL just an assumption laugh.gif
*
yes yes i agree with you, there's definitely a small battery inside the sgs2, maybe its drained that's why the phone reset, i do remember in v4 or v5 got someone complain take out the battery a few secs to put in microsd and the date time everything resets laugh.gif

Guys, feedback for myself.
I am using SINGTEL, and i do get a low reception with this KG6, seldom got fullr eception only 2-3bar at most.

any advice if i want to downgrade and flash to kernal KG5?

should i get cf-root kg5 and flash kernal through cwm app OR

get a stock KG5 and flash using odin (no more cwm reboot mode) and then flash kernal cf-root kg5 via flash kernal?

any advice or guide on what or which kernal and steps i should go for?
*
hmm.gif if your problem is the signal, it would be better to flash modem/phone instead of kernal
it doesnt matter if u flash cf-root straight or u flash stock then flash cf-root, in both cases you end up with cf-root right? smile.gif

destEX : bro , u r using SpeedGrey kernel right ? With Cognition ROM ? R u using the Release version or which version ? Coz with Release version , I get into a deep sleep and  need 2 remove batt

A general noob question : Does kernel effect our 3G connection ? Certain kernels like Ninph kernel , i get only EDGE but at the same location , I get 3G with Angelom 15 or 16
*
yep with cognition 1.31 and 2.00 and now with 1.42 and 2.1.0 release version kernal. if u get deep sleep, then u muz use the other versions ad. I never kena b4, use smooth, as u know each phone is different, since the kernal uses undervolting.

im on the right way.. haha.. just want to give some review.. smile.gif
today i get mu usb jig (for back up if somthing wrong happen to my S2)

after get that, i tried the Jeffrey-SpeedFrey 2.1.0 [kernel] cos i face a problem with my batt, 100% will empty for 8hours-10hours.. thats really bad for me.. after read instruction, a lil' bit praying then i flash the kernel with ODIN, praise God everything ok.. n restart normally, then i backup my data with titanium n CWM..

than i go to next level flash Liten'ing ROM, again with a lil' prayer then FLASH done.. but i need to reFlash my Jeffrey-SpeedFrey 2.1.0 [kernel] than i flash it again.. all restart normally n can run perfect without wipe my data..

now im testing it for 1st one hour, with music on, blutooth on, 3g on, sometimes play games n download... just drop 9% with that all on..

and now im still on my way to 2nd one hour test, with GPS on, 3G on, Wifi on, Bluetooth connected to my headset, and play music thru my bluetooth headset for 1hour will update the battery condition after one hour.. smile.gif wish me luck.. smile.gif

any suggestion for me?? i just give some review.. thanks.. smile.gif

my combination:
ROM: Liten'ning 5.0
Kernel: Jeffrey-SpeedFrey 2.1.0 (release version)
*
did u do battery calibration? charge to 100% then use the battery calibration app, then discharge to near 0% the discharge part is optional, but recommended.

QUOTE(Noobi3 @ Aug 17 2011, 06:19 PM)
Tried the normal version which sadly not much difference than Angelom's kernel ..... Batt life wise ..... Ok , will try out out the workaround version .... Tx for the info  notworthy.gif

Here's some screenshots
usage: normal usage, 5-10sms, viber, 3G/H on all the time, both sync in settings enabled, twitter every 30 mins, googletalk, k9 every hour etc.
user posted image
coginition 1.31+jeffrey speedfrey kernal 2.0.0 release version
-downloading manga with mangawatcher for more than 4 hours, and normal usage as you can see.

next is latest screenshot
was in the process of calibration by draining the battery
user posted image
-cognition 1.42+speedfrey 2.10 kernal release version
-50mins-1hr of playing starblitz(game runs hot and it uses alot battery)
-had a live wallpaper running (ice Galaxy @50% speed)
-brightness @ around 40-50%, not sure coz i manually adjust using the notification slider, it should be that percentage.
-sync all on as usual, including viber gtalk, google+ twitter every 30 mins k9 every hour set to download no matter how big the email and all sync is on in settings, only gps/wifi/bluetooth is not on
-plz ignore the green greenpower icon, i just restarted from flashing a kg3 modem so it auto started when i took screenshot, the kg6 modem kinda not so good in connection, dc more than kg3
-as you can see, was non-stop downloading manga, therefore my phone was nearly awake for the whole time and H is definitely running smile.gif
-i'm in uniten, middle of serdang bangi and kajang and putrajaya, it's the middle of nowhere and here the connection isnt so good, so it might contribute to the batt drain coz i frequently disconnects.

Honestly i dont find this kernel having amazing batt life or doin any optimization! Gotta flash back using stock kernel since both are also draining the batt like hell!

please chill, this is all bcoz u have too high expectations for this kernal laugh.gif there's more than one reason for a batt drain, wut i find good doesnt mean you'll find it good also, go and flash back your old kernal then smile.gif

those using speedfrey, good luck, remember to try 2.1 and 2.0 also, if u read the comments some find it batt draining, some like it alot, batt usage is very relative, so try it and dun put ur hopes too high, it's not gonna turn ur 1650 into a 10000mAh ok? laugh.gif

I found out that the 3g data is more faster that using wifi when i download something.

I install a speed test on my s2 and when i test the download speed, wifi show 1000-1200kbps and 3g show 700-800kbps.

I have digi unlimited data and my house have 2MB streamyx but when i download something, it show on 3g is downloading at 120kbps but wifi at 30kbps.

I try to put my s2 near the wifi router to get a full bar but the problem still the same.

I have flash my s2 to litening rom 6 but before that i am in litening rom 5 but the problem is still the same.

Any idea why this happen because i thought suppose my house wifi should be faster then digi data?
