I suspect its the RP kernel, going to jump to siyah since got other user complaint same issue. Let me try other kernel and update.
Bro not referring to wakelock, referring to the phone difficult to get out of sleep mode/standby mode. The screen just doesnt turn on.

No such issue so far. Been using RP from HyperDroid, CR V4 to CR V6.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here goes:

A friend of mine dropped his Samsung Galaxy S2 in the toilet bowl and the phone got drenched in more than just water (he had just taken a sh*t).

I think he had taken apart the phone and dried the parts with a hairdryer, before trying to restart the phone again. After one day, he tried again and the phone could turn on and seems to be working normally (can play Angry Birds), can even make call. But there is no sound, cannot hear anything even after the call is connected, and cannot SMS.

So he sent to the Samsung repair centre in Low Yat Plaza and now they tell him that the motherboard has short-circuited due to water damage and need to replace with new one: RM780.

What do you guys think? Is Samsung's repair centre trustworthy?

sounds about right. if you can't trust them, who can you trust??

Hey guys,just saw an app called Mobile Odin Pro on the market. The app has a function dubbed Everrot. Basically,what it does is keeps the root for the phone even if you flash it to other latest stock ROM. Is this function 100% reliable?

If so,it'll make less of a hassle when the new stock ROM arrives. IMHO,the only app I consider to be worth investing right now,if it works that is.

It has been on the market for awhile now and it works like a charm.

This is my theory. Most of us having problem playing with MC3 are those who downloaded the Free Promotion from Samsung Apps.

After you install, you can play. It recognises your existing ROM when it was downloaded. Once we flash to another ROM, MC3 will not be able to play....

True?

restore nandroid to CR V4 to check before and the file still corrupted. Don't know what V6 has done to it.
Asphalt I got from Samsung Apps plays just fine no matter what ROM I flash hmm.gif

You need to have at least one google account on your device.
Just untick Auto-sync to save juice.

Not sure if cuz of redphill or the sensor itself, but auto brightness always set the brightness abit too low, especially after taking picture then view, no idea why the brightness become 0 till need exit and change brightness agn doh.gif

screen become dimmer after taking picture is so annoying. don't understand why is set that way. It was like that even when I was on stock ROM.

Well diff people diff taste. Which is good in a way if you use siyah as you can change the brightness to suite you. Just that all along it is not user friendly as you need to use scripts. But once the app it out it will be alot easier and hopefully people will stop complaining.
*
is the app different from the voltage control available now? was thinking of installing it but if it is different might as well wait for it.

My gf I9100 non-G also have problems when flash custom ROM into it.
I'm not expert but I used to flash a lot of ROMs in my own GalaxyS2.
But these 2 days when I flash either CheckROMv4 or V6 into my gf S2, the phone keeps acting weirdly, sudden hang and freeze, market crash constantly, notification bar freeze etc etc.

I always wipe everything before flash, sometimes twice, I even format /system /data /sdcard /emmc separately.
Is there a problem when directly flash 2.3.6 ROM into 2.3.3 stock ROM?

Really headache, stick back to XWKF1 for her for now. doh.gif
*

CR V6 is super unstable for me. Mess up my phone. Have to be careful what kernel you flash. Have to flash twice to fix market prob and what not. Need to flash so many patches to make it compatible with latest jkay. So frustrated end up going back to stock rom. God forbid if you ever lodge a compalain on their thread. Just gonna get accused of your system being messy shakehead.gif

Thank god doc finally released HD V7. Much more stable and less drama.

i dont have any issue at all after flashing CRv6..only that one time I want to flash battery theme causing bootloop..either then that, no issue with jkay or market..
*
Using it with redpill no problem but when I change to phenomenal kernel everything just went to hell. Fine at first but suddenly got market prob, cwm e error, can't restore nandroid. One giant mess. Not really a masterpiece if u need to flash this and that for the rom to work. In my opinion.

hi , today i just bought a poweramp full licence which only USD1.99(promotion)~~

just wonder why the buying process so easy? it doesnt need any TAC or whatever security~~ what if other ppl access ur phone and use the card to buy all the things?i just wondering how to improve this situation ~~
*
If they do buy from market using ur card. It would be like they we're buying it for you since the card is connected to your gmail account. never the less better put the market pin to prevent lil bro or sister buying games on your behalf "accidentally" tongue.gif
