Re: [ROM][4.2.1] RootBox ♦ Support ♦ Help-Index ♦ Discussion [i9100/i9100g]

nightlies 8/02/2013 . Recomennded from This Rom installation guide.

1. Download RootBox update

2. Flash RootBox update

3. Flash JB GAPPS

4. Wipe Cache (Optional)

5. Wipe Dalvik Cache (Optional)

6. Reboot

Maybe bad download or flash. You cannot access recovery using VOLUME UP + HOME + POWER? If not, download some kernel TAR, e.g. Siyah or Dorimanx, flash via Odin and flash Rom again. But flash only rom with checked MD5.

Just a quick question is there any way to backup AOKP and Rootbox settings before full wipe?

Edit: misread

What I do is take a screen shot of them and then I have something to reference.. But as far as I know you can't.

Maybe titanium backup can do that though

How can I disable the soft buttons to light up every time I'm touching the screen?

Awesome

I really have no idea why that worked but I just skipped 'wiping cache' and 'wiping dalvik cache' and performance ist back at 3.6 level. In addition to that, I just restored Trebuchet via TB to keep my smooth experience ;)

Factory reset wasn't necessary, but thx 4 suggestion and feedback.

Man I wish I knew that worked before I flashed. What happens is your media scanner doesn't have to rescan and load all your files/images on your sd card, and then you have better innitial/performance like before. But this is strange, would not have thought that would work, i.e. a very dirty flash/install. Thanks bro I also loved the performance of 3.6 but I did eventually flash siyah and then use extweaks to change config to my optimal levels. Awesome rom.

    ♦ Known issues ♦

    In general, RootBox has AOKP issues as it is based on AOKP and some CM issues as it uses some features from CM and CM kernel as well. This list is not complete list of AOKP / CM / RootBox issues. It is a list of known issues that are discussed by RootBox users within development threads or support thread.

    • GPS locking problems [workaround: try this] - reported on 20130422 and confirmed on current builds / not all users are hit by this issue (maybe it is location specific are other way random occurring issue)
    • SMS gestures not working properly - always only 1st gesture works, multiple gestures not working [no workaround] - confirmed on latest Nightlies
    • Sound disturbances, mostly dropouts using BT headset or BT car kit [no workaround] - confirmed on 3.9.1 & 4.x & latest Nightlies / not all users are hit by this issue
    • Some users report freezes and other issues when playing games [no confirmed workaround known / setup with Dorimanx is working for some users] - not confirmed / not easy to reproduce / no relevant logs so far
    • Bluetooth DSP Manager settings not working (Speaker and Headset are OK) [workaround: use Speaker settings, it also influence Bluetooth audio output]- confirmed on 3.8 and further
    • When ending call via Bluetooth, phone freezes for several (about 3 - 5) seconds [workaround: be patient, it is really only 3 - 5 sec.] - confirmed on 3.9 and further
    • Custom ringtone setting can randomly disappear [workaround: put ringtone into /system/media/audio/ringtones (thanks to Computoncio for the tip)] - confirmed on 3.9.1 / issue status unknown for latest Nightlies
    • Developer Options > Simulate secondary display will cause boot loop [workaround: reflash the ROM or reset the option in database (thanks to Mr.H-DK for the tip)] - confirmed on 3.8

    ♦ Kernel corner ♦

    Stock kernel
    RootBox uses CM kernel from CyanogenMod as a stock kernel. This kernel is very stable and battery friendly and stock kernel is always recommended mainly for users that do not have special demands. Please, remember that RootBox is multi-device ROM and it needs multi-device kernel. Creator of this ROM even do not own S2 and he cannot support alternative kernels for this device in any way. Therefore stock kernel is only kernel with the official support from Bajee11.

    Download
    Thanks to hawkerpaul’s knowledge is Hannibal226 providing stock kernels for selected builds here and here.

    Non-Stock kernels
    There are many RootBox users with S2 devices using non-stock kernels. Most popular and compatible are Dorimanx, KangBang and Siyah kernels.

    Dorimanx
    • Dorimanx kernel is developed by Dorimanx (note that he is also RootBox user)
    • For current RootBox builds use 9.X branch
    • Changelogs, download links and other important info on development thread OP
    • Support, Q&A, discussion on non-development thread (Please, consider to ask there for support, if you have really kernel specific questions or issues, like STweaks, OC/UV, BLN, cron, etc.)

    KangBang
    • KangBang is the kernet for AOSP based 4.2 ROMs.
    • It is based on CyanogenMod smdk4412 kernel, i.e. it is based on current stock kernel for i9100 & n7000.
    • It is modded to provide more schedulers, governors, BLN and other features.
    • It is available with CWM or TWRP recovery.

    i would just like to thank all of you who trusted my nightly builds even though you know im not a developer
    those who had the guts to sacrifice their phone flashing my builds (i hope no s2 was bricked!)
    i appreciate all of that,
    now that bajee has a build server again,
    i will stop nightly releases,

    thanks again guys :)

    Sent from my GT-I9100 with RootBox

    How about trying an old school solution?

    1. Replace gps.exynos.so file @ system/lib/hw with
    attached file and set permission to rw--r--r.
    2. To confirm that is working install GPS Control SIRF Star IV from playstore,
    it will show from there if static navigation is enabled.

    it is working for me but do it at your "OWN RISK"!
