i seldom use odin.. i only use once in my life.. to flash back stock.. i dun wan increase binary count as i dun have usb jig..
stock kernel means flash together with stock rom rite?

Quite the bummer

ICS focus was quick multitask, having a dedicated button is faster than holding down the darn home button

Yeah, I agree. I guess they want to maintain continuity with Gingerbread for mainstream users. I've been using the home button a lot in ICS (multitasking etc); I worry I may be wearing it too much. Starting to feel less responsive these days after about a month of ICS haha.

Yeah. ICS aside, guess they have to maintain the general operation of S2 for current users. Not everyone so savvy and adapt to new usage if they change it

That's my worry, and my main problem with S2. I hate physical buttons at the bottom

right now my prob seems to be ok after using auto GSM/WCDMA, my calls don DC anymore.

but im now gonna google up about this modem thing..a lot of ppl claim bettter speeds and clearer calls after changing modem. if anybody have any recommendations for a good modem for G model will appreciate it.

all we can do is wait and see what samsung has in mind for s2 users in the next ICS update

Was actually hoping some custom ROM dudes would change the menu button to dedicated multi-tasker.

Then they'll probably need to have a settings quick button somewhere in notification pulldown, just like stock ICS

You can flash kernel separately. Don't have to be together with ROM.

You hate physical buttons? i totally love the home button, not a fan of capacitive buttons. I heard can enable nexus on screen buttons on s2 too, but need do some editing. I remember slekerz uses on screen buttons the last time he post a screenshot of his s2 running ics.

As for me, not a fan of on screen buttons. Im used to touching bottom of screen for spacebar, wonder if any nexus accidentally hit home instead of spacebar or not

erm done..
flash to stock rom dzkl3..
then flash again to superatmos 3.0.. hehe.. thx..

Actually before this, I was using SGP Ultra Optics (not Ultra Fine).

Comparing 3M Estoc + versus SGP Ultra Optics....okay, my personal opinion:

Pricing: 3M Estoc a bit more expensive and DIFFICULT to get.

Clarity and brightness on screen : 3M Estoc is slightly better than Ultra Optics

Reflection: 3M Estoc a bit more reflective

Anti-fingerprint property: 3M Estoc slightly better than Ultra Optics

Touch and feel: Both about the same. When it is new, both has a bit of "chit chit" sound and stick to finger a bit...over time, it became smoother with Ultra Optics....as for 3M Estoc, I only use 2 days...cannot comment yet....but the overall feeling is still quite nice and smooth (ignoring the slight "chit chit" sound)

Adhesion of screen protector on phone: Ultra Optics slightly better. For 3M Estoc, the part near the speaker cut out area doesn't stick 100%...but it could be due to my SGS2 older now, collected more dust over the last 8-9 months..haha...but the rest of the ares stick very well....not a single dust or bubble...

Overall conclusion: I would say I prefer 3M Estoc + a bit more for now.....

I'm using the lucifr uv kernel, not the cpu fix one tho. Works splendidly

Thanks for your review, too bad no thank button in this forum.
I always forget the SGP modal naming, I was actually mean Ultra Optics but "ultra optics" sounds like a ultra crystal clear protector.

Will probably get SGP as it's cheaper with only small difference.

My 91 hrs without reboot on RP 1.3 gone. Just flash latest siyah.

which? uv1.3?i did try it ytd.. i found it kinda spike when u jz unlock n scroll in launcher..
did u use any tweak like voltage control?

When I clear memory in task manager there's certain app I want to exclude so the system won't close it like radio that running in the background and Magic Locker. Is there anyway I can accomplish this using stock apps?

Haha preference I guess.

Nah don't want on screen with the wasted space at the bottom, my sentiments about Nexus

I like One X, large screen with buttons occupying bottom space. The more screen the happier I am (yes I know you're gonna say go get Note lol)

Woot his last one on GB. Give us feedback if bagus, maybe weekend I flash it



Let's see what his final GB kernal file brings us

Well so far everything is working great. But dun expect too much, basically he just do minor stuff. The major one is make it configurable through xan's app later. This way each user can modify their kernel settings (dunno this is a good idea or not. )

Previously you need to use scripts so now there is an app for it.

just flashed to siyah 2.6.13.. like 5 sec ago.. cannot say anything on it..
but i realize the screen seems dimmer compared to neak.. maybe some of u already knew.. haha..
