Well, even if I've nothing to do here cause I *Hate* Samsung ROMs, I've found everything that was going here funny. I'll, expose my point of view, without a biased point of view. But, with enough of general knowledge on ROMs whichever AOSP Or Samsung base, and development.

I've read the last few days (weeks?) That some crap was just getting out from here, with promises, promised updates, that were not coming, with lies all around.

Err, the S3 releases, actually proved the point of uppon2. That guy is 100% right. Sadly.

I respect checkRom and all the team behind, whoever they are. Developing does take time, I personally know it.

But, let's get serious for two seconds.

What the **** did you do there?

Didn't you learned from GM when he released (3.1.6? ) the brickbug kernel? When he found out, he instantaneously removed the links. Which should have been done here.

And GadgetCheck's attitude, Wolol, seriously? Of course not it is not a master piece. Or maybe a masterpieceof**** yeah. That kind of attitude with so much arrogance... Bwah. Now, let's go on with most important, or relevant posts here.

u go on kidding man.. Samsung has not released a 4.0.4 rom, it has been leaked ;)
so u cannot expect source codes about, even if rom is rocking stable.
My team is developing LQ5 rom, but one of the reasons for the "unrealising" is the kernel.
Now tell me what s useful into a rom (a simply deodexed one) with no custom kernel (and no CWM) and with a kitchen EMPTY and that needs the custom recovery to apply the mods from kitchen.

I think u played,stop.



Don't blame *HIM*. Leaders told him to release, he did so. He probably joined the team lately, and the ones who moved to S3 don't care about S2 anymore. But still, should remote links. Yeah, sure missing features, etc. But as he said, just a base.


I guess you might have heard the proverb "Rome wasn't built in a day".
Lets just say, we were gonna build the ROM step by step...
Releasing the base was most important, because only from the feedback from it, we can add mods and stuff...

I don't play with the users who follow and use my work... If you feel otherwise, checkout all my post's in the DarkKnight Kernel thread... I say what I feel is right, and tell the truth to the user's...
I would just like to wish you all the best to you and your team for the LQ5 ROM and would like to stop this discussion right here...

@Anyone else...If you feel that I am playing with you guys, please let me know... I dont know how much more clear and pleasant can I be in my replies... :confused:




Bad idea. Releasing something which actually Brick devices should, must, lead to instant link removal. What ever it is. What Sammobile should have done actually.

Okay, you're not playing with us, well, with checkRom users. But the past developers did. By telling their fans fakes releases dates, false arguments on delayed releases, and so on. I don't know when you joined this team, so I can't put a blame on you.




what they should of done from the start..release a 4.0.3 stable release rom and then add the lidroid tweaks....all it would of took a few days to cook the whole thing up and you guys would of been enjoying v7 by now....but this release seems just to shut few people up...sad thing is though the standards of checkrom has fallen big style from reading here..

there is one member on xda who has summed up the whole issue of this situation and that member's name is called uppon2.. just search the thread here and you guys will see what i am talking about...so in general what we have here is a poor excuse of a release and still a stinking communication by the main guys....

my advice..wait till the issues are resolved and if they come back with an update then make sure it is fine to flash as you guys do not want to be having any issues.

he could not have said it any better have a read here

This is 100% true. Actually I went to this thread today to give CheckROM a go. Trying to not die stupid by wrong ideas on something I might have not tested. But all I know, I then I won't never do.

Blame CheckROM? Hell no. The ROM seemed good. Blame old developers that mirrored fakes releases dates, fake excuses, **** yeah.

I might get flamed for what I've wrote here, but heh, I don't really care.

Have fun, and, Cheers!:cool:

@Mirko ddd

i'm with you man, my eyes are not blinded, i've already catched the handling of mister Leo and GC.

this rom is beeing developed by mister Dharam_Maniar and him only, the only thing that leo and GC helped on a V7 was clearing some doubts to this new DEV, i'm almost sure that they havn't done jack sh*t on a new checkrom version to S2.

Dharam_Maniar please dont think that we are all hiting on you, this is not your fault, this is the main DEV's fault, they filled us up with lies for this new release that they didvn't even might righten a code line at all, you are doing your best and i apreciate that.

about the briks, well, to be honest i don't think its the DEV's nor Samsung fault, as soon as i saw the V7 post i knew that i shouldn't flash a diferent kernel, and i'm a noob on these things, so, on thing is clear, or the guys that have the phones briked are more noobs than me, or else they are just stupid and tried they're luck flashing other kernel.

i'm looking forward to flash a new checkrom on my S2, but for sure wont be a first version, and this because i think that i'm not capable of handle such a fresh release, first version releases are meant to PRO's, so they can fetch bugs and stuff like that.

Dharam_Maniar please, be clear that we are mad at the main DEV's because of they're lies, and for donations to the S3 that already have a 2nd version of checkrom, lol.

Hey one thing here, I haven't worked on the ROM yet mate...it was their hard work only :)

...and people wonder why I was so adamant that we needed an answer from the Devs rather than just fan-boy talk from users... This is the reason.
I certainly didn't want to be causing fights in the thread but I felt it was critical to have this issue explained and clarified because it was inevitable that there would be bricks, followed closely by a huge mess, which we now have.

Credits to Dharam_Maniar above, for calmly and sensibly trying to fix the issue now but I think the horse has already bolted.

So let me see..

Its was clearely given that dont flash any kernel to the rom.

Its a leaked 4.0.4 firmware, no source no kernel.

Flashing the rom wont brick your phone (wipe/no wipe.)

Now tell me wats the problem.

Dharam was working on the kernel (but will take his own time for it)

And all the problems you are causing your self is planely due the ignorance on your part by not reading the changelog. Which probaly is not my/teams fault.

I guess its better to leave this thread shut till probably some of you get your manners firs.

Thread Closed.

    So as all of you know me and CheckROM Team teamed to form one massive task force to deliver to you the best!
    We have been working on the ROM for some time and now its time for you to enjoy it.
    Thanks to Our Server Admin geistteufel (He hosts all our work on his server)

    The Rom is built to be Fast, Stable and to Save Battery




    The ROM will come as a Base
    i.e
    It will have the Stock Samsung Look to it and will have all major tweaks to it, The Kitchen app from now on will come built into the ROM itself and it will be Locked to only our ROM.The Kitchen will now Auto Update itself when ever i publish a Update, So you will always be using the updated app.

    All the Mod's,Themes and other Stuff that you can customize will be aired by the KitchenPro.

    NOTE
    • Make sure you have the latest Revolution Rom kitchen running in your phone
    • It may happen that after a package has been installed from the Revolution Kitchen Pro app, on the first boot you phone hangs at the Boot logo, just long press power button and restart your phone!
    • I'd like to point out that i am not responsible for any issue with your phone! Also it's highly recommended to backup efs folder before to start playing with your phone!
    • For those people who is coming from LeoMar75 Revolution ROM 2.7.1 and has installed Kitchen Pro app v1.1
      -Backup user data with the kicthen v1.1
      -Titanium backup
      -cwm backup
      -full wipe and download the new rom

      Hopefully with the kitchen app v1.2 that comes with the new ROM you will be able to restore you user data backup but you need to copy files from /sdcard/download/Revolution/userdata_backup/ to /sdcard/download/CheckROM_REVO/userdata_backup/

    Kitchen Pro Application - Build your Rom as you wish!

    The kitchen Pro App comes with the ROM, however you will find the apk attached


    If You Support our ROM Put this in your Signature.

    Just Copy and Paste the code in your signature
    HTML:
    [URL=www.checkrom.com][IMG]http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/8413/sigcs.png[/IMG][/URL]

    The Kitchen pro app only work's with our ROM, it will not work on any other ROM neither do we plan to make it work on any other ROM.
    I have developed this app/sources from scratch and it is copyrite protected and any illegal reproduction of our work/Apk Tooling is a offence.



    CheckROM Kitchen Pro V2 Post:http://bit.ly/KitchenProV2

    When The KitchenPro App gets an Update it means that the .apk it self is update this dosent mean that the Kitchen Content is updated, Content update in the app is done manually either by Me or GC who ever gets time to do it! So Dont Rate the app on the Content it Hosts, Give it 5Stats for the Revolutionary app it is

    We have nearly 100000 Regular users for 2 devices.Buy us a couple of beer (and use the "Thanks" button!).
    Imagine if every KitchenPro User had to purchace the app & also the amount of time we have spent in making the App and the ROM
    But we love sharing so we will always remain free, But our Servers Dont Come Cheap​

    Q:What is odex/deodex?

    A:

    Odex:
    Every android application comes with the extention '.apk'. Packaged with every apk is a .odex file which contains parts of the application which helps speed up the boot process and preloads it.

    an odex file is an optimized version of a classes.dex file that has optimizations that are device specific. In particular, an odex file has dependencies on every "BOOTCLASSPATH" file that is loaded when it is generated. The odex file is only valid when used with these exact BOOTCLASSPATH files. dalvik enforces this by storing a checksum of each file that the odex file is dependent on, and ensuring that the checksum for each file matches when the odex file is loaded.

    Deodex:
    Deodexing is a way of repackaging the apk such that it is reassembled into the classes.dex file. Everything is put together in one place, and this is helpful because it eliminates any chances of a modified apk conflicting with other odexed parts.

    to deodex a file using baksmali, it has to load every BOOTCLASSPATH file that the odex depends on. By default, baksmali will try to find the 5 "core" BOOTCLASSPATH files in the current directory. It can use either a jar/apk (with a classes.dex inside), or an odex file

    So to sum up everything, a .dex file contains the cache used by Dalvik VM during boot and this .dex file is located inside the application. On the other hand, .odex file is an optimized version of the same .dex file but it is located outside the application.

    What do I lose/gain using odex/deodexed ROM?

    The upper hand deodexed rom has over odexed is integration. Every ROM maker loves deodexing the rom because of two main reasons:
    Modification of apk becomes easier
    ROM is open to theme modifications
    So, as an end used, you would most likely want to have a deodexed version of a ROM to take full advantage of android freedom. However, note that you won't lose out on performance in an odexed ROM.

    Q: After falshing siyah kernel kitchen Pro app does not works anymore
    A: CWM5 comes with siyah kernel, this custom recovery has a bug related to mount point for sdcard (internal/external). Two possibility:
    -You can still use the kitchen app for downloading packages but in order to flash packages you should reboot manually your phone in recovery mode and install packages located in /sdcard/download/CheckROM_REVO/
    -If you remove your external sdcard the kitchen will work fine!

    Q: Which Theme to flash or will this theme work
    A: Any theme that is built for XXKH3 Deodexed is flashable with the ROM.
    But the only Downfall to this is that you will end up loosing a few features like Jkay Themes app!!
    Now the Themes that dev the Themes at Checkrom.com or our official themes dev's who make themes for us make there respective themes over CheckROM so when u flash there themes you don't lose any features :D

    Q: How this ROM is different from others ?
    A: This ROM is heavily modded with a custom theme, features, apps etc and also has my personal tweaks and improvements.

    Q: I'm coming from a different ROM so which version should i choose wipe or non-wipe ?
    A: Choose the Wipe Version.

    Q: What is the difference between wipe and non-wipe version ?
    A: Wipe version will delete all your apps and settings whereas non-wipe version will not delete your app or settings.

    Q: I'm getting bootloops what should i do now ?
    A: Follow the steps below:

    Wipe Cache
    Wipe Dalvik-Cache
    Wipe Battery Stats
    Format Internal SDCard
    Install the wipe version of my ROM

    Q: I'm coming from a different ROM how can i install this ROM ?

    A: Follow the steps below
    Remove Android related stuff from the internal SD Card
    Get into CWM Recovery
    Wipe Dalvik-Cache
    Wipe Battery Stats
    Install the non-wipe version of the ROM

    Q: I want to make sure nothing of my previous ROM interferes with my new ROM what should i do
    A: Completely wipe your internal SD Card or delete any Android related stuff from it and disable any lagfix. Then do a full wipe from ClockworkMod recovery then install the wipe version of my ROM.

    Q: After Installing your ROM I'm getting bootloops/boot issues?
    A: Do the following steps:
    Take out the battery
    Put the battery back in
    Get into Recovery
    Wipe Everything
    Flash my ROM
    Done!

    Q: Screen Capture doesn't work what should I do???
    A:It has been removed from the Base Rom due to problems with CRT Screen Off.
    Install it from the Kitchen if you need it.

    Q: I have Kernel X, my Boot animations don't work, help...
    A:Some Kernels don't support Bootanimations or need special files (Speedmod, Lulz etc.). Install a Kernel which supports it, like Rage, Nimphitamine, Siyah etc.

    Q: How can I sort my Apps alphabetically?
    A:Use the App "Appzorter" from the market.
    Or install Touchwiz 4.5/ modded Touchwiz/ 4G Touchwiz/ Use another launcher.

    A:First read this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1290020
    Second: Try the things mentioned in the Thread.
    Third: You can try to change Kernels, but it isn't a Rom issue.

    Q: How can I get more Functions in the Dropdown Quickpanel?
    A:Use JKay Deluxe Settings app. Then swype them.

    Q: How can I add "Reboot" to the phone options dialog?
    A:Use JKay Deluxe Settings app.

    Q: When is theme xyz coming to the Kitchen???
    A:If the Team said that a new theme will be added to the Kitchen, then it will be available as soon as its done.
    Enable Notifications in the Kitchen App if you can't wait.

    Q: I am not able to flash via Kitchen???
    A:Delete Clockworkmod folder
    Reason:
    Previously to make the kitchen flash in older version of CWM5 we need to use a salte hash file that was placed in the Clockworkmod folder, Now with the updated CWM5 the actually problem with CWM5 was fixed by the respective creator!

    So now what happens is that all you people have that salted hash file remaining in ur sd card that doesn't allow to flash stuff in the newer better CWM5, thats why when u delete the Folder it stats working coz the salted hash file gets deleted!

    Now you may ask why delete the folder, when u can delete the file only!!
    LOL answer is simle the Android os never recognizes the file there so when u open myfiles you never find the salted hash file inside the clockworkmod folder! You can use other apps and methods to delete the file but then there is the obvious questions from noobs!!

    So Moral the problem is only with that one salted hash file and not ur backup

    Dark-Knight Kernel

    [KERNEL] DarkKnight V2.5.2
    has all the features of Siyah-v2.5.2b with the following exceptions:
    pm_max to pm_fast
    wifi range should be increased.
    If a feature cause instability it is disabled or limited. Battery optimizations are included as long as they do not decrease the performance or cause instability.
    default cpu governor is conservative
    default i/o scheduler is deadline
    sleep frequency is 800MHz
    stock lowest brightness value

    [KERNEL] DarkKnight V2.4.3
    hd playback is fixed.
    touch lights fixed.
    sleep freq is set to 500MHz and it should be stable this time.
    it should be near perfect, even the best release made till now.
    fixed USB OTG
    Added intellidemand governor. this is a modified ondemand governor and very battery friendly.
    default lowest freq is set to 200MHz. default governor is still (tweaked)conservative.
    some other tweaks & fixes
    tweaked ondemand, conservative and ondemandx governors. I think stuck-to-800MHz problem is fixed.
    Enabled some tweaks in tweaks.sh. video playback on external sd should be better now.
    disabled hidden ssid in wireless driver to fix wifi tethering problems (thanks to Entropy512)
    back to SLAB
    fixed usb keyboard&mouse problems

    [KERNEL] DarkKnight V2.3
