Hey guys my gf just got this phone from kajang for RM1950 ori set. Is it cheap? Anyway she was saying that the ringtone she set which is a song, kinda started soft for 1 sec then goes loud. How do we fix this?
And while typing msg the words on top keep flashing too. Sorry but we are new to android still in learning process smile.gif

The ring time is normal.only way is to flash custom rom. The word flashing mean prediction is it?

One of the user has PM me this message. I have asked him/her to post it but he/she hasn't, probably worried will kena flame ; but I do agree with him/her
Basic phone functions must work well with stock rom. You don't go and flash cook roms to solve it. Basic functions refer to:
- call , SMS, MMS
- 3G/Edge connectivity to internet
- camera , must work well with all features builtin
- touch screen responsiveness , must be super smooth and does not lag on stock rom without 3rd party installs. 3rd party install ( esp those cracked/warez ) will at times affect screen sensitivity and responsiveness
- bluetooth connectivity
- WiFi connectivity ( test with other wifi spots if you have issue with certain WiFi spots)
- GPS should be fast and quick; mine consistently and without fail wherever I go, connects within seconds  ( not more than 5 secs ) - Papago X5, Google maps, Sygic Aura.  My car is factory default  light tint so tinting factors does not affect me. Having 3G data enabled helps alot for quick/immediate lockup. I always has immediate, max 2 secs lockup using Sygic Aura

Here goes, I quote his/her PM to me : QUOTE -

Uncle Benny,
Sorry if my PM arrival disturb you but i feel i need to give my opinion/suggestion about thing that lately i find quite disturbing.
I've noted some of our members are very quick in pointing/suggesting flashing custom rom for every problems when other members (in stock rom) stating their problem in the forum and looking for answer/advice.
I know that some problems can be eliminated when we flashing custom rom (exp : pink spot in camera). But for some other problems, i think it should be handle within the stock rom itself without need to flash custom rom (exp : phone rebooting itself, freezing, force close, screen defect, network connection, overheating etc..)
What i'm trying to say is, aren't we suppose to advice/helping other members finding the root/cause of the problem while it's still in the stock rom rather than suggest flashing custom roms to eliminate the problem. (exp : find and uninstall roque app, test whether photos, videos, songs, files or the sd card itself corrupted that make the phone lag or freeze INSTEAD OF flash custom rom because it can make your phone faster.!!
I find this type of advice is misleading and who knows it can worsen the phone condition in long term.

*
actually i believe some problem will solve after firmware upgrade..since malaysia stil at KF1, you need to wait for SME to release other latest firmware ...for some ppl, they cannot wait, and just flash the latest update...but since most of the custom ROM are build with latest firmware, so that's why most of the advise point to custom ROM..can always use stock firmware..

1 thing I experience.

when browsing internet using wifi the S2 really really very hot.

especially the camera part. it is normal for everyone?

if it is normal, can the phone sustain that hot?

TQ

Depend on how long you browse internet.mine go up to 37 °C..before using stock rom the temp is higher compare to latest xxkg1 & above

So your wifi really drain your batt till its totally dried uhh.?
That's weird coz i thought wifi not using as much juice as in your case. It should be quite the same as per letting your data signal on for the whole day.
Found the real cause already?

i ever on my wifi overnight..never drain until finish battery..only drain like 20-30% due to auto sync email,contact,fb...this stuff

I have flash so many types of roms, use so many type of modem files, use so many types of kernels , play with so many combo of firmware with kernel and modem - and in all I had never have issues with WiFi and GPS. That's why I always say the SGS II is a perfect smartphone
GPS lockup for me has never been a problem ; is amazingly fast wherever I go from JB to Penang, Singapore , Kelantan : 3-5 secs for Google Maps, Papago X5 and immediate to maximum 2 secs for Sygic Aura. My 3G is always on 24/7

was outside just now, and since i have KH3 modem CWM flashable, so i just flash in my car..and tried again with papago X5 and locked in less then 5 sec...so i guess previously it might be the weather or something ... icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

Using it.

This is my take: CM7 = MIUI > Sensation

Honestly it is great. Loving it. Yes it is nightly and cm7 is auto released every day. However it is good and pretty amazing.

Go ahead. You will not be disappointed.

Bugs? Not many. Normally same with the rest of the custom roms. If you see it, CM7 and MIUI is not the same with any other custom roms. They are build for less samsung-ness.

I don't know why many people having issue with both but happened to me so seldom.

i prefer custom rom that is compatible with sgs2 and have less bug and problems..so far using batista 3.5 really satisfied my sgs2 usage..no reboot, no hang, no FC...all function working..only my 1 cent .. notworthy.gif
