19 Aug Gr5 XXKH3: MoDaCo Custom ROM for the Samsung Galaxy S II (stock-style/vanilla) with Online Kitchen

[Guest ascito]

@Paul

in the next kitchen update, would it be possible to enable stock SIP client by adding android.software.sip.voip.xml to system\etc\permissions\?

THX!

Definitely!

[Guest Paul]

CM7 does just that, must be possible with Sammy's camera app?

That would be a cool mod! :)

[Guest Paul]

A fix for CRT effect is here

Maybe Paul can introduce it on the next builds

Good call, will do!

[Guest Paul]

I've written a 'EFS Dumper' APK that I will post soon... sadly this won't help SwagR... I will also update the first post to reflect the important of having a EFS backup!

[Guest Paul]

Testing my BLN kernel now, should be online tomorrow if all goes well!

Excellent. Can't be doing with pulling the framework and decompiling. I'll wait for the next MCR.

[Guest Androidlover287]

This may be weird but what is a EFS? i'm guessing it has something to do with the baseband?

I found out what it did/was, disregard this.

I have the complete EFS folder from my friends GS2..can anything in there help?

[Guest QLF]

Any reason why i can't resize widgets within Touchwiz with this ROM?

Also, the Samsung / stock Calendar widget isn't included, and my hacked Email.apk that removes the need for PIN lock on my work email no longer works for some reason. That's prob going to be annoying for a while :(

Great work, Paul! I've enjoyed MCRs for the Hero and Desire Z so having one for the GS2 makes me all warm and fuzzy. :)

Baked me an (almost) Samsung-free version using the stock app options and loving it. No issues at all.

[Guest Pakatus]

Hi Paul,

Another stuff it might be handy for the next MCR. Tried it on the Blade..and really spotted a difference there.

Cool, i'm not familiar with this mod but i'll check it out.

[Guest Paul]

Update!

Most of these are in the kitchen. however as I'm not ready to release Gr2 yet, i'll be releasing the kernels as a seperately flashable option - watch this space. :)

Amazing work.

Already tried about 4 roms...and yours is the most stable and smooth yet.

Too soon to talk about battery life...just wondering..is the BLN flavoured kernel relies on Kernel Wakelocks or you made magic?

PS: Still waiting really bad for the Mobile Data Toggle Button. :)

How to install custom kernal?, it thought it was going to be a clockwork flash?

Mediafire screwed up again, it's not a .zip file, btw

Or with CMW (if you have it installed), or via Odin (Via PC).

[Guest Paul]

That's because it's not a zip. It's just the zImage. I'll put some CWM zips up in a bit, these are just 'expert' files for DD'ing.

Ah perfection. Cheers Paul. Well worth buying ad-free for the kitchen.

Anyone know if this works well with other kernels? i.e. Ninphetamine 2.0.5? I've not baked in an MCR kernel.

If you flash the other kernel after flashing MCR it should work fine.

Hmmm just flashed with the BLN Kernel, and left the phone on my desk and noticed the screen is waking randomly.. I've not had any notifications. Anyone else seeing this?
