Guest Coffer52 Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Here's a mirror of the new update. File: 20121005-U8818-S3-V2.0.zip MD5: 57bed0628b7be7c0fb172e0e40ad629a SHA-1: d58e71819d045a0f1d6c048e6f49d32dcd811c88 http://www.multiuplo...o.uk/Z34B5Q5T3H Thank mate, sorry would have posted myself but been off line. OK, well I downloaded and flashed v2 over my current ROM v1.6 only wiped cache and dalvik. Up and running again, added some new Chinese apps trying to find English option for these! Dolby is superb, seems faster, browsing, booting, UI but could be just me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolby is superb, seems faster, browsing, booting, UI but could be just me! Im currently using 1.6 and really like it so want to go to V2.0, i guess this is through CWM , normally when changing ROM I wipe everything and do a complete fresh install, having never flashed over an exsisting rom is there a different procedure to flash over current rom but retain all other stuff on the phone??? Sorted ......just flashed over without wiping dalvik or cache, seems fine.... Edited October 6, 2012 by bryfly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kyan31 Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 (edited) @wrtease Since this is a galaxy s3 lookalike rom, why don't you add the 'S-VOICE' feature into your rom. This is a actual port from the phone itself, Not a crappy clone. Here's the thread which is made by me: Edited October 6, 2012 by kyan31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mpetrooo Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Is it good to just flash this from infusion, and it good for u8815 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest foobert Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Did anybody else have difficulty flashing the 2.0 from scratch? Or was it just me? By difficulties, I mean that it will install ok, but the keyboard app throws a wobbly when it is required (blank screens and unresponsive Chinese buttons). Thus leaving you unable to sign in to an account or enter a wifi passkey. I solved this by installing 1.6 first, logging in, and installing another keyboard, then I putting 2.0 over that. There was probably a simpler way (side loading - duh) but my brain didn't think of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't gone from scratch, but next time you can try opening another ROM (like infusion or stock) and taking the keyboard from that ROM to put in this.

Guest foobert Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Any major differences in 2.0 and whats your opinion? No major differences as far as I can see. It perhaps feels marginally snappier than 1.6 when scrolling. As for memory management, I couldn't say yet, as I've only been using it for an hour. However I am ill and bed-bound today, so I'm probably going to be fiddling with this thing for a while yet. I'll report back later, unless I get well soon! I haven't encountered a need to fiddle with my hosts file, i.e. the YouTube app works. I do still prefer this ROM to Infusion, despite Tillaz's great work on it. Mostly because it feels significantly faster even when not overclocked, and I prefer to add my own bells and whistles. Oh, and why don't more launchers have drop shadows for icons, like touchwiz? It looks so much better in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, I think that regular testers of weird and wonderful ROMs (like us) might do well to have a a keyboard apk lurking somewhere on their SD card, ready to sideload for such occasions.

Guest timfimjim Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Strange, the messaging app behaves fine until I start deleting some of the Chinese apps. Very annoying, guna have to go back to 1.6. Shame as the new version seems quicker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the app called something like Antec and had an icon resembling a green satchel. I say this from memory so I'm probably not being particularly accurate. I had the same issue, but installed a 3rd party SMS app instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest timfimjim Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Somehow I got it to work again.. Not really sure how. Somewhere between installing google apps and syncing with google it seems to have fixed itself. Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't seem too helpful to me though. I'd just flash it and see for yourself. Seems a bit quicker to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
