I am not responsible for any damage to your phone, marriage, sex life, etc. as a result of installing this mod.
This is just a simple compilation I put together that installs 3 ROM tweaks that I find myself always using whenever I flash a new ROM.
Included Modifications:
Galaxy S II Startup/Shutdown Animations w/ Sound by Jay Aristide
Fix Permissions Script by crackpot
Improved SD Card Icon for Status Bar. I couldn't find the original thread or author, so if you find it, please let me know so I can give credit.
Installation
Put ROMTweaks_Signed.zip on your sdcard.
Flash with CWM.
Enjoy!

It has worked with every Gingerbread ROM I have used on my phone, which is all of them, except for Audiophile series, but it would work no doubt.
You screwed up my marriage and sex life. I hate you. AHAHA.

The fix perms script. I'm assuming that replaces the one in cwm, and is ran from cwm recovery?

Before you flash it through cwm you have to uninstall the old one (and the installer) and wipe the cache...
I'm case you use it later
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App
I downloaded the flashable swype, pulled the apks, placed in sdk tools folder and just pushed them. Removed the olds one first, everything works great, like the look of it better as well
Here is the flashable rooted version...
Download Rom here:http://www.multiupload.com/WYTRN0KSDV
This rom features Entropy's daily driver please thank him for all his hard work!
Installation:
1 Download rom
2 Boot into CWM
3 Wipe, data, cache, and dalvik cache
4 Choose zip from sd card
5 Flash and reboot
If you want video working, flash the stock kernel through sgs kernel flasher...
Instructions
Boot int CWM
scroll down to voodoo folder
disable voodoo lagfix
reboot and let the lady disable lagfix
download sgs kernel flasher from market
find stock zimage and flash
Stock zimage rar:http://www.multiupload.com/6QCTIEU0JY
enjoy!
Crt off animation(For those who like that:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365794
thanks dman, one dumb question - after going back to stock zImage/kernel, will I lose CWM? (Just wanna flash what i need before that, if that's the case!)
Thanks man!

Also for reverting back to stock kernel after rooting...I just download that rar file and sgs can install from that? Just making sure because it seems like all other kernels I have used were zip files which I know both are basically the same thing.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
Thanks, This is the best way to have a stock rom without the At*t apps... Thanks again.
Upon flashing the stock kernel, I've lost all external SD support... Anyone know a fix for this?
There is a fix for this problem by editing the vold.fstab file. There's a number you have to change. If you haven't found the instructions yet let me know and I'll send them to you when I can.

yeah i know that i could just edit the systemUI.apk to only have them. i just like the look of the 4G icon over then the H+ icon
is there a link to the download to the original kernel, so when I get flashed...I can use sgs to get back to stock for all the features.
also, what will I need to change to get external sd support?
thanks much for this dman, good stuff.
i emailed the Superuser guys about a month ago with an issue where i would get constant notifications to update my superuser binary, no matter how many times i actually updated it, and they sent me a CWM zip to flash and try to fix the problem (new version of superuser). i flashed it and all went well. i've been having the same issue again so i thought "why not try the same thing" and flashed the zip but lost root somehow. so is there any way that i could just push the files for root? can that be done on a GB rom?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Sounds like the binaries in your kernel are outdated. Try flashing a new rooted kernel. If you're on GB try drhonks kj1
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
i figured a kernel flash would help so i did it (forgot to write that in the OP) and i flashed the kj1 but it didnt help
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I always had that problem everytime i updated superuser in the market and phone reboots it reports binaries out of date. It only happens to me when i update superuser, so trying leaving superuser alone and not update it.

This will flash everything. If that doesn't work... then I will post a video of me punching myself on youtube. (just kidding...)
But really, The one-click makes these "it doesn't work" or "I can't root" problems go away.
does it have to be heimdall flashed forbit to work? i flashed with cwm and the kernel flashed but i still dont have root
edit: heimdall flashed, still nothing
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I read somewhere that you can flash su via cwm from a zip that its in the superuser page. might wanna check it out. Sorry if im wrong!
/me punches self in face.
So... Let me get this straight.
You ran the kj1 or kj6 (not the fully stock) one-click and you didn't have root at that point? Are you doing something after the one-click?

I happen to like Root Uninstaller (allows you to get rid of bloatware and backs up your apps in case you change your mind).
Also, Terminal Emulator comes in handy if you want to run some commands.
Titanium Backup
Super Manager
Keep the Lights On
Tegrak Ultimate
Voodoo Paid

I don't have a dialer.apk. Maybe one of these is what you need. You may need to just reflash whatever ROM you are on.
These files are out of stock GB ROM. You can open the zip file of the ROM you are on and extract whatever .apk you need. Then copy the .apk to your phone and push it into the system/app folder.

What I do in such cases and recommend others to do is to prepare a rescue flashable with replaced (original) content. It is as simple as that, in any case you need the replacement on your SD.. nevermind.
