and who the hell asked u to flash the insecure kernel? of course u have that yellow triangle, because insecure kernel is not signed from samsung.

if u are using i9100g, follow my pdf guide in my signature, the first page guide is outdated.

i cant really recommend one, but some stable like superatmos 2.1 or even lucifr 1.22(i think), but safe case, use superatmos 2.1, tested and reliable so far.

and dont use KJ2, it is outdated, people nowadays are swearing with the german rom LA1.

see my guide as i updated it recently, with a cover page even..losl

what did u tried? u didnt mentioned it clearly?
anyway, flashing rom is actually a very safe procedure considering u read and follow my guide properly smile.gif

LA1? Stock ROM? Can it be used with Malaysian devices? I know that it's a common misconception that other country's ROMs cant be flashed to asean devices,is this true?

Can the LA1 ROM be rooted using Doomlord's method? Thanks bro! smile.gif

Edit:Bro,googled LA1 ROM,but it seems that it's a Galaxy Note firmware,lol. laugh.gif

read my guide u stupid tongue.gif

i put everything in there..even how and wno here to download rom

no misconception, it is just timid and too cautious people keep saying that..

lols, i am running it perfectly on my phone, even just using stock kernel..

flashing it using mobile odin pro, if u are rooted.

if u are not, flash normally using odin.

say no further, my updated pdf guide has everything, even updated file links.

Ouch,walked right into that one. sweat.gif

Wow,just realized that you've update your guide,looking sleek and nice man!

Well,I would try flashing using phone,if only I have money to buy Mobile Odin Pro. Using Everrot enables root even after flashing right? Well,too bad I don't have any means to get Pro Odin. sweat.gif

kernel also can introduce much2 better governor, for example, default hotplug in LA1 is much battery friendly compared to in KJ2. maybe it is because of "Made in Germany" lols..

too many possibilities, either u have not clear everything properly after flashed before, or u are running too many apps, and lastly, u are too anxious of knowing the battery life and without u knew, u are unlocking the screen for about every 10-20min. it happened okay, and we dont even notice it. smile.gif

lastly, give it a day or two, sometimes the battery calibration is still in process after u flashed new rom

rooting process will not introduce battery drain. it is the apps that u installed afterwards could introduce battery drain.

money? what is that? lols...i am not paying mine too tongue.gif

actually the method 180sec might work as it is mentioned to be useful for sgs2.

and once i read, but forgot already, there is actually a way to calibrate by deleting a file but i forgot which file, it is not the batterystats.bin, this one usually for htc phones or older samsung.

keep on learning man, maybe u can become the next dev for i9100g, we are really2 lacking of dev here. smile.gif

Creezalird, i have seen your latest updated guide, awesome dude, really great work there !
I joined facebook group by the way, lots of info there.
I'm a little bit worried about ICS update, there are a few echoes (true/untrue who knows ?) of I9108 beta rom for ics, but so far, really nothing on I9100G.
I read a post on indian I9100G thread in XDA forum, apparently, new indian rom that fixes all issues with camera and sound, lots of people trying to get their I9100G exchanged by I9100.

So,what you're saying is that there's maybe a chance that ICS won't come to SG S2 G version? shocking.gif

okay. I read a few threads about the Q&A on rooting. But what exactly is ClockworkMod Recovery?

ClockworkMod Recov is an app? I think,that allows you to flash custom ROMs on your phone. Bro Wira_lover,please correct me if im wrong. smile.gif

Guys,how do I set my phone internet browser to always display in landscape? Back on GB,there was an option in the settings that made it possible. But now on ICS,there's no such option. Im using stock ROM and browser,fyi. Thanks! Also,i disabled auto orientation because i don't need it.

yup its ok. its easy. the hardest part is reading the instructions carefully, and follow word for word.

here is the link : [ROM][ICS-XXLPQ] DIVINE v1.1 [i9100G]
im not too sure. i have always used auto rotation for this. later ill try playing with my phone and see if there is anything

Thanks bro! But the landscape setting definitely is not there. smile.gif
