the rom i use was last updated on feb 8.
not an issue until now. never plan to change also.

i feel more like a causal user rather than an explorer now.
no more stress and worry updates or craving for features. peace icon_idea.gif

It's a sign that signals you it's time to change a new phone biggrin.gif

har? no la, i like my phone. dun plan to change.
S2 may not have the latest fastest hardware, but good enough for me. will only change unless it spoil.
for a phone, it works just fine.

i dont get the point of changing phone now. current selection are limited
even if i buy a nexus 4, there's no surprise, the UI will be same as cyanogenmod
used to own a nexus 7, already know what's the nexus experience is.

if buy note 2 or s3, same like touch wiz rom s2 is currently using.
the custom rom also same same only, the same top developers only.
the same UI/custom rom on a different phone only


lately spending more time tweaking my new ipad.
jailbreak tweaks are really really cool, a brand new play ground for me.
but iOS forum section here pretty much no activity one, i mainly google and find myself to play.

just being curious..
any of u running rootbox got issues with signals / 3g?

- when i make a call -> sometimes it doesnt go thru. i have to cancel call and call my friend again

- sometimes in shopping malls or even just right inside (near the door) a shoplot -> i got very weak 3g signal. (couldnt connect at all but showing full bars)
and do any of u running touchwiz got that issue? i read on XDA that touchwiz handles all these signal better than AOSP based roms.
*
This kind of telco issue also related to rom?

In mall I always get shitty reception. I blame digi.
Not only in malls, quite often first time call not get trough. Need call Second time.
Lately I have SMS not sent issue. Haiz...stupid digi.

But give you one more reply. Anything more You wana know pm me

iOS 6 announce on September during iPhone 5 keynote.
February only got jailbreak. A good 5 months wait.

Every new iOS version will take even longer to jailbreak due to apple ever increasing security

yup, latest.. i download from play store...
no idea... u can download other country official one 4.1.2 and flash it with odin..
btw
want to ask, about the camera,
scenario 1. my friend iphone when the black light is too strong, they tab "focus" at the dark spot and the whole focus will be bright.. (if u know what i mean)
scenario 2. using other phone, for example u focus ur camera to ur house bulb,light your whole picture will be dark except the bright light, then u tab focus at dark spot in ur camera, the whole picture will be brighter..
this 2 i try at stock camera..
i not sure if samsung stock camera can do this.. and i know that my s2 custom rom cant do this by tap at dark spot..
do you guys use other camera apps beside than come with custom rom?
however sorry for the english...
*
i know what you mean, samsung tw camera can do that.
got setting for "metering", it will change the exposure level.
got 3 types of metering:

matrix: calculate the entire image and adjust the exposure based on the average. my favourite since pics wont appear too dark or too bright

Center weighted: default for all camera app. exposure auto adjust based on center of the image

spot: exposure auto adjust only based on the small square in the middle. good for snapping person standing behind the sun or bright light. adjust the square in the middle to his face so the pic wont appear too dark.

aosp camera in custom aosp rom dont have this feature.

oh..thanks... but i'm not good on that...

any website to refer.. so that i can learn how to do it step by step ? notworthy.gif

go read note2 official thread.
i think in post 6 got tutorial how to use odin.

basically the method to upgrade yourself is very easy.

go sammobile website download the jellybean rom.
use the odin software to flash.
thats all.

downloading the rom takes very long cos its very big >500MB
downloading odin is very fast, <10MB,
flashing process is fast <10 minutes.

done.

after almost 2 years, my phone gives me a major problem. i can call out, but ppl cant call in. only 1 or 2 ring, then voicemail. but i didnt receive any notifications.

my notification bar also quite messed up. didnt show any notifications. have to check manually.

my main concern is about the call in. anyone got this problem before? care to share?

thanks.. smile.gif

sounds like a telco issue.

i'm using digi, and for the past 1 week, the sms service sucks so bad.
sms gets delayed for few hours, and they dont arrive in the correct order. doh.gif

i tried alliance and omega yesterday.
both are good rom.

alliance cant disable long press back to kill, and strangely cant flash android 4.2 apps to it.

so restore back to chameleon rom.

hows the chameleon rom?
you're not using alliance anymore ehy?

:: just checked.. isnt it AOKP-based? most of it.
so its basically running on CM10?
*
Chameleon rom is Samsung based. All hardware work and non of aokp bug.
Equally rock stable like other Samsung rom.

But on the surface everything looks like aokp.
So really it's a Samsung rom that looks like aokp, and with aokp features.
Everything from browser,lockscreen,settings,messaging, etc all aosp app.
Only camera is Samsung camera.

then does it have multi window, smart stay, ripple lock, etc?

No,

Think of it as the official aokp 4.1.2, minus the navigation bar customization, but plus working hdmi,fm radio, and wifi direct. Wifi direct is great, can share files with s3 an note2, many friends are using.

Custom ROMs are custom kernels are different. Custom ROMs can be hacked as the framework can be decompiled. Kernels can't be decompiled (well, the initrd can be, but that itself doesn't make it "custom").

But can't find the line in build prop.

Hi, I'm having problem with the system memory 2GB. After reading this thread, it seem to be the problem of "dalvic cache". I can't find a way to clear it for non-rooted phone. Any to do this besides resetting my phone to factory mode? I've already did it once & the problem now came back in less than 1 month. I have less than 10 apps install in my phone >.<
Sifu here any advice?

Go to all your browser, clear data and cache for all your browsers.

It might help. Let me know how it turn out

I think the ICS rom for s2 was no good.coz this is the version that user encounter the wifi problem.then the wifi chip will be dead.if u are lucky,only need to change wifi chip.if not,need to change d whole mobo
*
Wifi chip spoil is due to internal battery leak acid and damage.
Hardware, not software problem.

Whatever OS u on, when old the battery still will leak.
