samsung is always a b*tch with the GPS, u need to use something like "GPS status" or "gpsfix" to get locked first before running other GPS apps like papago and etc

and "FASTERFIX" ~

Kernel 1.0 drain battery but kernel 1.1 is ok .
So now running kernel 1.1 plus Rom 1.0 .good battery .put on ics theme. Really cool .only problem sometimes camera fails or hang .otherwise good .cleared dalvic

try put on ICS back on it. I have ICS running. Its awesome . Better than the ics launchers.
So far even before JD, setcpu and freeze unwanted apps, battery life is good, goes down like 2-3% per hour on standby

With SuperROM 1.0 ,anyone figure out how to make USB connections  work?  I can connect to PC in USB debugging. I can connect without USB debugging but KIES doesnt connect.
I can connect USB storage and also USB teethering , but KIES doesnt connect. Says phone not supported by KIES when I use the correct mode for connecting with KIES.

===============================================

Argh! nevermind....i think i know ( But i maybe wrong as the launcher in custom ROM is still TWlauncher)... KIES only works when u have Touchwiz on. Obviously with this custom ROM and no touchwiz it shouldnt...... unless someone else got work around  rclxms.gif  rclxm9.gif  shakehead.gif

I was facing connection problem to KIES due to KIES version, but didn't know TWlauncher has this issue. smile.gif

yes, i am using stock with superatmos 1.2 kernel
and my stock rom is also heavily modified except the part with battery percentage, as i find it to make phone a bit lag and drain battery, but maybe not for others, for battery percentage i just use app "zdbox"
*
OIC , I am still using stock kernel and rom, seems ok and no battery drain problem. Awaiting for something new and almost perfect ..i did use zdbox but too complicated to me ...LOL tongue.gif

Official Malaysia one lar...i just log on to KIES (install KIES yesterday) and check the latest firmware..

Android: 2.3.6
Baseband: I9100GDZKJ2
kernel version: 2.6.35.7

Just run the antutu benchmark and compared the below:

http://10division.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-gt...ow/#comment-525

This blog shows the G running at 1008Mhz at the Antutu benchmark results and scores much lesser 4xxx. Mine managed 54xx (compared to the 56xx of the non-G shown above) and the CPU frequency on mine shows 1200Mhz instead of 1008Mhz. smile.gif  So the performance is almost on par whereby previously quiet significant gap.

Official firmware yah, no hack-hack coz i dun want to kill my new SGS2 yet...sweat.gif..

meant new version improved lot, great~! rclxms.gif

Removing the yellow triangle /!\
Getting rid of the yellow triangle in a few simple steps:

Flash this (or any other) custom kernel via Odin
Once your system is rooted run the Companion Tool ("HC-kTool")
Tap "Dump current kernel"
Tap "Reboot to Downloadmode"
When back in downloadmode, start Odin, connect the phone and flash any stock Samsung kernel
(this will remove the yellow triangle as the phone is now running on an official kernel again)
when the phone rebooted after the Odin flash start up the Companion Tool again
Tap "Flash kernel from /sdcard/zImage"
Tap "Reboot"

That's it.
You are now running the custom kernel (again) but without having the yellow triangle on boot -
also the custom bootlogo now works again (it doesn't when the triangle is shown).
Easy?

of coz not the same

yellow triangle is encountered when u flash unsigned aka rooted kernel, this is like a warning because u are not running on stock kernel.

binary counter is the counter inside odin download mode, shows how many times have u flashed unsigned firmware or kernel
