Batista rom is another good rom. But I am staying away because I find his theme changes is not my taste. Some users praise it like it is heaven , But than again, one man taste is another poison. I still prefer the default stock theming.

If you go and read the XDA forum on any kernel or any rom, you will see different opinions. Differences in opinions arose as each user use their phone differently. Each user is at a different place on the earth. Each user uses a different telco

So your best answer is test it yourself. Read all comments including mine with bowls of salt. Use other people opinions just as a guide. If majority is praising certain roms, kernels perhaps than you can try. If majority is condemning it, it might be wiser to stay away unless you want to convince yourself

As a standard operating procedure, I always advise users to wipe their phone if you are moving from one cook to another. It will eliminate a lot of issues. Just use Titanium Backup to backup all your apps/data. Restoring back usually takes 5-10 minutes only. I always believe in starting from a clean rom. I have been practicing this principle in all my Androids . The only thing you need to do manually is to place back your widgets on homescreen. Your set fiormat where /how you place your apps is all restore back . However if your present rom is Samsung TW and the cook rom do not have TW as option, than you will not get this restore back

Uncle Benny, so for ROMs with touchwiz, I can backup the touchwiz launcher's data as well? doh.gif

Been painstakingly putting back the app pages and arranging it one by one after flashing each ROM.

lol... another female! cool!

yes, can make free calls. for me, viber gets my thumbs up only coz they have official support in our forum. smile.gif

they have indicated plans to make it very much like whatsapp (being able to share photos) and also to have other versions  -- for BB, PC, etc.

but again, another major point -- its FREE. whatsapps for android... it's chargeable annually. the ios version is only pay once.

Thanks mate. I've uninstalled some of the games and the phone doesn't reboot itself since last night. if it happens again, i will try the factory reset. thanks!!

Flashing the ROM is the last thing on my mind right now. just want to play around with its original setting until i get bored.hehehe!! biggrin.gif

You can start installing back your games app BUT only one at the time. Try the games that you had just installed. If no reboot then install another. Keep on that way until finished :-)

HI All,

I got this Samsung Galaxy S2 (Original-I suppose from Celcom Blue Cube) just last Saturday,

So far I experience 3(three) times of "cutoff" from Celcom. There is NO LINE at all, not a single Bar. I have to restart my phone, then only can get back the line.

What happened ????? Pls advise, on how to fix it.

Thank you thank you

If you're on stock rom and using Juice Defender, then uninstall the app. I find the app cut off the network signal each time your screen is off. Sometimes it totally lost the signal and can't patch it back when you on back your screen. If this happen, you had to manually find back your network.


QUOTE(sLapshock @ Sep 5 2011, 03:24 PM)
Yeap, i do know how to flash Rom, that is because Litening Rom will not wipe my phone.

KH3 worst? Oh, i read somewhere that its a better modem, because right now im using KH3 kernel.

How does kernel and modem affect my phone? (i couldnt find this on page1, tried using the 'search' but there's nowhere indicated 'baseband')

For e.g?

what are the difference between a KH3 modem and nimph kernel and a KG5 modem with a nimph kernel and KG5 modem with KH3 kernel.

another question.

I do understand flashing rom such as COGNITION do wipe my phone.

Say, i already customised my go launcher in my Litening Rom v5, if i flash to Cognition, does it mean all my go launcher lost? and... how do i prevent from rearranging all my apps into a folder again?
*
If until now you still can't differentiate between kernel and modem then i suggest you just stay on STOCK rom as it can save a lot of headache. And everybody else headache aswell :-P

Actually I don't understand why some are worried about testing different custom roms ... just flash away bro~! I tested more than 5 custom roms in a span of 2 weeks of owning the S2 ...

Just make sure you follow their instructions and it would be fine ... CWM + Ti = Win

Haih ... My S2 is in the kilang now =(

What happen to your S2?

Downloaded cognition after so many recommend it but still cannot find reason to flash it. Touch x-treme is really fast n smooth and no issues so far.

My S2 decided to crap out on me by giving me a yellow spot on the lower left side of the screen.

Your Android OS is extremely high. You must have a lot/tons of background apps running. Mine usually hovers around 20-30% most of the time

Download this free app : SystemPanel. AT anytime, just launch it and you can see a whole list of apps working in background
You have to analyze yourself these apps and if you have no use/need of them, permanently freeze it using Titanium Backup. If those apps you need, check their settings/options/or preferences or whatever to see whether you can disable it from running in background. Some apps are by default actively refreshing data/checking updates in background

You also can use BetterBatterystats to check the list of apps running when your display is off

At such a high %, your battery usage will suffer

thanks, will try now rclxms.gif

The way i look at it the android OS is the highest cos your screen was off all the time. Normally, the display will have the highest percentage pushing android OS down.

And plus your batt didn't drop much. It may turn out to be nothing at all. But just check as benny said to be sure.
