QUOTE(stormstrider @ Nov 24 2011, 11:34 PM) Guys, i'm a non-G user. My phone start rebooting so i want to do factory reset. Just want to know if my root still intact if i do this factory reset. Thanks It should not remove your root. CWM and root will remain as they are link to the kernel. This post has been edited by antt00: Nov 24 2011, 11:42 PM

QUOTE(botakbin @ Nov 24 2011, 11:51 PM) walau i flash red monkey til it gimme bootloop. Flashing theme = high risk of bootloop so always make cwm backup. When switching between themes, try to flash back stock theme first before flashing new theme. Edit: If dun have CWM backup to restore try going into CWM and flash stock theme or previous theme.

QUOTE(annoymous1234 @ Nov 25 2011, 09:51 AM) can sombody help me? im using stock rom and i dont know why my battery is bad. i check battery usage and last time only cell standby and phone idle is running. but now im seeing all thies weird apps like android core system, android system, calander. i rarely use my phone this few days, are these cause the battery to drain?  my display is only 12m but it shows 42%.. is that normal? Percentage from the battery usage page does not tell much. Android core apps icon looks like TW launcher icon, could be refering to TW launcher. Use betterbatterystats to see if there is anything keeping your device awake.

QUOTE(bgr41n @ Nov 25 2011, 11:09 AM) for the olden days, people said tat fast charge will spoilt batt.. i was trying to take care the batt.. as u said is normal thn i think forget about it.. as i noe is don charge overnight?? Well my opinion is that neither me nor you will be the expert on the battery. Samsung is the one that design the batt and charger so i believe the best care for the batt is to use the charging rate that they have set. I don't think charging overnight will spoil the batt cos the charging auto cutoff when the batt is full. But some are of the opinion that heavy using the phone while charging is not good for the batt. Constantly replenishing the battery due to heavy usage while charging + the heat generated could be a bad combo.

QUOTE(ashwin1234 @ Nov 25 2011, 01:36 PM) Haiyo, thought the free calls could be to all numbers. I was tempted to switch, then realised that all my contacts use maxis/hotlink. I am not too sure about the Samsung Appd part. The phone is with someone else and I can only test it out at night. Will probably play Modern Combat 2 online and see how it performs. But right out of the box, seems to be just as snappy as my non-g. It came with the latest KJ2 and I rooted it with CWM last night If you got problem downloading SGS2 apps from samsung app store using G version, you can make you device to be recognized as non-G since your rooted. I have made my HD2 to be recognized as SGS before to download some apps.

QUOTE(ashwin1234 @ Nov 25 2011, 02:45 PM) Haha, will check it out later. I just flashed CheckROM v3 and found out that there are very few themes in the kitchen. Can I flash the ones which I already had from last time? I like the black theme but it replaces even the app icons with black ones. The changed icons will only be for TW or will it also stick like in the ICS theme? Eh no cos the new checkrom is KJ3 while V2 checkrom is KI4. If you flash you will probably get into a bootloop.

QUOTE(jayro_88 @ Nov 25 2011, 05:15 PM) the kernel will wipe: -/lib/modules -/etc/init.d scripts -previous void kernel traces a lil bit confuse with these wipes. What will happen if those are wiped? seems that lots of people using this kernel. So thought of giving a go. currently using siyahkernel. If you rom got init scripts it will be wipe clean. Same for lib modules. So whatever modification your rom chef made in these folders will be deleted. I modified the kernel zip to not wipe these 2.

QUOTE(ashwin1234 @ Nov 25 2011, 07:59 PM) @antt00 Could you please tell me the name of the zip file from KI4 that removes the browser overscroll glow and has the user agent option? The mod is gone from the KJ3 kitchen.. Is it: XXKI4_RemovedOverscrool_browser_UserAgent_option or XXKI4_browser_UserAgent_option_bounce Thanks Dunno. I never use stock browser so never change it before. Try both. Its just the browser apk file if I am not wrong.

QUOTE(saber201 @ Nov 25 2011, 07:50 PM) I got no problem also when charging and hearing music. But it's AFTER the charge. Never heard of this problem before and it does sound like hardware problem. Agree with others that you should send it in to service center. If you want you can try factory reset to confirm its hardware and not software just remember to backup first.
