[Q] Rom/galaxy s2 problem - General Questions and Answers

well i wasn't sure about the problem its nither the galaxy s2 problem or the roms
so recently i installed the version of Resurrection ICS ROM v2.0 for Galaxy S2 i9100
on my phone before i had a 2.3.3 android version rooted phone so after i did so the rom itself didn't make any problems but whenever try to play gameloft hd games it just crushes without a reason i tried reinstalling or any other type of this games but they neither crush on the start of the menu or after playing for 2 mins or less in this games so my question is is there a way to fix that I'm now really good with android i only got my galaxy s2 recently or maybe its because i installed this version before unrooting the phone but normal games do work on him and there's no other major problems besides this 1

[Q] CF-Root-SGS2_XW_MOT_KG1-v4.1 does not work

I've tried the custom kernel CF-Root-SGS2_XW_MOT_KG1-v4.1 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399, fourth post, but the CWM Manager v2.0 can't seem to create a backup of my Samsung Galaxy S 2.
I've rooted the phone and I'm on Android 2.3.3. Specs are:
Android version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: I9100XXKF3
Kernel version: 2.635.7....I9100XWKG1
Build number: GINGERBREAD.XWKG1
The developer (@Chainfire) did mention that the above custom kernel is "untested" by him. Just wondering if someone is looking to fix the issue with CWM Manager not able to backup the phone's content?
Any help/feedback is much appreciated.
I've updated my Samsung Galaxy S2 using the CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG1-v4.1 kernel - even though the developer (@Chainfire) has said that it' only for Android 2.3.4 - and CWM Manager is working now. The phone specs are still the same except the Kernel version has changed to:
Kernel version: 2.635.7....I9100XXKG1
I guess if the developer read this post, he can update his thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399 with this info.

Well there is one little thing we need to know? How important is the phones camera to you?
There are ROMs which are based on stock and have modifications to speed up your phone and apply one theme.
But there are also ROMs which are based on another android version and they use open source drivers. (MIUI; CyanogenMod, short CM) Unfortunately the camera and some other little things (e.g. Hardware supported HD video playback) are currently not working as they should. But they go some steps further in terms of speed and customisation.

Well, it's a long time ago that I've installed a stock based cROM. But one I would try would be:
vurrutROM for XXKPU with vurrutKernel
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1451218
Guides for installing cROMs and updating to XXKPU are all found in the development section...
P.S. There is really no need to create thousands of threads, this only makes everything confusing and splits the discussion. This is no chat room, so it can take some time untill you get an answer. I will report the threads to a mod so that he can merge them...

GT-I9100G Help please ??!

Hello XDA
I'm a little new to the whole android scene and I ( stupidly ) bought a Galaxy S2 I9100G version not knowing it would have lower performance and much harder to upgrade to ICS so I have a few questions because I want to manually upgrade it to ICS 4.0.3 and Kies doesn't work at all so my question is:
What does the basebands differ from one to another and if I'm to install an official update to my "I9100GDZKH5" which firmware should I install to be suitable to it.
or should I choose it based on the kernel version whick is "2.6.15.7 [email protected] #2"
BTW I live in Egypt and the official ICS firmware still hasn't come out

Try Flashing a Custom ROM. In order to do this you will have to Root your phone and your phone will get warranty void. The decision lies upon you.

Thanks for your reply starbriganza but I'm trying to find a way to manually install official firmware and all I need to know is how to pick the appropriate firmware for my Galaxy S2

Samsung has officially released ICS 4.0.4 now. You can google it and install it via odin. Just put the downloaded .tar file in the PDA section and flash it.

[Q] I have the Galaxy S6 and cannot install certain apps

I have the Galaxy S6 and cannot install certain apps. I keep the error message "unknown error during application install 501" when trying to install apps like SwiftKey, Antutu, CPU-Z, and almost any benchmark apps. Never really encountered this before. Even when finding the APK online I cannot install it successfully. Any Ideas
Model number: SM-G920F
Android Version: 5.0.2
Baseband Version: G920FXXU1AOBH
Kernel Version: 3.10.61-4260274 [email protected] #1
Build Number LRX22G.G920FXXM1AOBI
In the meanwhile you might try downloading and installing by using Aptoide.
Did you try googling that error code?
Update
I found this:
http://www.technipages.com/google-play-download-unsuccessful-error-fix
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1
Having the same problem with Galaxy S6 (SM-G920F) and Galaxy S6 edge (SM-G925F). Both smarts can't install benchmark (Antutu, Nenamark, Quadrant, etc.) and other utilities such as CPU-Z. Play Store shows 501 error. Cool Reader and Angry Birds are working just fine.
Also I've tried to install necessary apps directly using there APKs. And it doesn't work too!
Can anyone explain what is going on? I need to test these phones but I can't do that without benchmarks.
P.S. technipages/google-play-download-unsuccessful-error-fix
didn't help
same error, with same applications (antutu, cpu-z as example) - error 501, no problems with other applications (wifi analyzers, camscanner, etc)
G920F/Android 5.0.2..
besides, my specs are equals to post above -

Galaxy tab 2 10.1 P5110 - Latest stable Android based OS?

Hi everybody,
I am now using a Galaxy tab 2 P5110, running under Android 4.1.2, not rooted.
My problem is that my Tab is really slow when I use basic apps (chrome, office apps).
In order to get a bit more power from it (removing the Samsung layout, but I know it's a 2012 tablet...) I am looking for the most stable ROM I could use, and if possible running under a quite recent android version.
I am quite new to this kind of manipulations, so I am also looking for a tutorial to instal the ROM you could advice me.
I know I have to root my tab before doing anything. Does the tutorial available here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1657056 - by Weltwon) work with 4.1.2 android version?
Thank you all for your answers!
Matthieu
------------------
Edit: I have an other question. Is the root enough to remove the Samsung touchwizz layer? If yes, how to do it?
Lineage OS 13.0
You could get a Lineage OS 13.0 nightly, and from my experience those are fairly stable.

For starters if you want to get rid of TouchWiz you can remove all of the bloatware and Samsung apps (like TouchWiz home, AccuWeather widget, Samsung Apps, Group play).
But I recommend just install custom ROM. Maybe cm11 or cm12.. I am using Dhollmen 4.4.4 on my tab for 1 years and it is working very well for me.
Thank you for your advices,
@tasnim_tamim: I dont know Dohllmen. Is it à cyanogenmod Android version? Which tab do you run under this ROM?
@orionboughton: are nightly versions if lineageOS stable? I have heard that these are update vert often, and some Android functionality can be disabled
Its a ROM based of SlimROM.. I am running it on my galaxy tab 2 7.0 p3100
Lineage OS 13.0
Lineage OS is basically an updated version of Cyanogenmod, so i guess that's what it's based off of.
I've been running a nightly of Lineage OS from their website at https://download.lineageos.org/espressowifi , and it's really smooth compared to touchwiz and the ram is managed much better. The camera works, the gyroscope works, and I've only had one or two problems (like root not being enabled out of the box, and needing to flash a supersu zip to get that running), and besides that it's all good. If you have a problem, rebooting usually fixes it and I've rarely had to do that in the past few weeks I've been running it.
Another plus is it runs android 6.0, which seems to be better in every way. Great standby time, 4h or more screen on time, etc.
However if you do decide to get it, make sure to flash with the latest version of twrp, and if not you might softbrick your device.
