CRT effect - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a simple way to enable this? All the options I have seen seem to include other modifications too via replacing a framework file.
Do Samsung block it on the phone or do they take it out alltogether. I understand the reason is because of poor performance on occasion but it has always been fine on my phone...
Any ideas?

Have you seen this thread:

I don't think you'll find an easier way.
Kinda funny, because I disabled it on Cognition ROM. You can have mine.

Thanks I hadn't seen that one. Will give it a try once the 2.3.4 update goes official (unless anyone fancies doing a KG6 version...)
Brought back memories reading about how all the processes come crashing down when you change the file while the phone is running... oops...

My phone is going crazy

Ok so my Fascinate is obviously rooted and I have the Frost theme on here and that's all I've done. I had SetCPU on here running the minimal setting recommend. I decided to take SetCPU off and when I did my screen shut off but the bottom buttons would still light up. I pulled the battery a few times and that seemed to fix it... or so I thought.
Every now and then the screen will randomly black out or the media scanner thing will be running in the notification bar, once I pull the battery it seems to fix it. I'm kinda lost on what to do, any ideas guys?

Do you have a backup made? What kernal do you have installed. If its an overclpcked one flash the stock kernal. Then go from there.

Weren't you the one that posted the "How to fix SETCPU death" thread? You posted pretty much the same thing and said you had fixed it??

I was gonna say this too. I thought you mentioned needing to keep it in conservative mode to stop this from happening. Or to boot it up kill the process and try uninstalling it that way. It makes sense that you couldnt uninstall something like that while it is running without some issues.
i have the same problem and have no set cpu installed i had jt's kernal and set cpu but flashed the stalk kernal through odin back on and deleted set cpu any would help be great
Ugh I had my first fascinate do this. After much trial and error I decided that it wasn't any certain mod. It was just the phone its self. If its doing this I would recommended taking it back. Use Odin to flash back to stock. Hide the superuser app. Get a new phone while in ur 30 days and start all ovwr

Should I do a full factory wipe? Freezing and black screen issues!

Ok, so I have been having some major freezing and getting stuck on a black screen issues. Currently have Rooted 2.1 Stock Rom with JI6 update and OCLF V.2 installed on my Vibrant. Thinking about doing a full factory reset and also wiping the 16gb internal memory too. Then reinstalling everything from scratch. Will that make any difference? Thanks for any help you guys can offer!

Try this...
If you have ROM manager, try using the fix permissions option. Seemed to work for me after I flashed Bionix. I'm not sure if you're overclocked or not either. If so, you may need to check your scaling settings. Not sure if these work for you, I'm still in noob status, just trying to pick things up along the way. Would hate to get flamed for asking a question......
Just using Stock Rom not a custom Rom. Think I might just undo everything and start fresh. Just wish I could find a working download link for the TMobile unofficial Froyo Rom. But not having any luck since it was removed by the xda. devs!

Even with a stock ROM, you might want to tryr fixing permissions, seemed to work for me when I was rooted with a stock ROM....just a thought.
^^ please see the noob guide in my siganture... the ALT METHOD is exactly what you are looking for.

Ok just did that. Seems a little faster but the Market seems to take longer to load and also it changed my font style for some reason? Will test it out I guess

[Q] Closing bootanimation needed.

Hi,
I am wanting to know how I can get hold of the closing bootanimation I have managed to get on my SGS2. Basically its like a tv screen when you switch it off, it closes down into a line just like the old tv's used to. I think it must be when I upgraded to the KE7 kernal or firmware but I just want to know if its possible to manually install it on a desire?
Ta.
its known as the crt off effect, i think you can install it manually, search in google or in xda for crt off effect
why
Why are you digging up old threads?

What's up with the screen?

Before I go rooting & maybe flashing my phone is there something wrong with it. I've been reading a while & see it may be a bad phone or its the auto brightness being on. I compare it to my captivate & its not as vibrant. Like when I open this app its brown instead of the tan on my cappy. I see I can change the display settings on a few of these roms like unnamed, will that fix it? Also I did the ota update to 2.3.6 before I realized I shouldn't. Guess I can't just root it anymore huh?

Keyboard lag please help

Hey people I'm really really feed up with the x10 keyboard lagging like most of the time. Galaxy s keyboard puts our keyboard to shame and so does HTC wildfire and some lg phone which I happened to try please help to remove the lag don't tell me to change to this keyboard or that
Already done it but not good enough
Sent from my X10i using xda premium
its most likely a general x10 issue on stock firmware you should mention everthing is kind a laggy. homescreen, app drawer and even music playback.
I don't know any solution to this staying on stock firmware, only by rooting (eventually unlocking bootloader) and using custom roms, they are an amazong change using the x10. they also got a lot more features and cool stuff but always be aware, by doing that, there is a chance to make your phone unusable. If you plan oing so also be aware, you won't be able to get any services from sony, even on hardware related.
also a last note, before rooting & other stuff, read a lot about it in the stickys in development forum and most likely a huge load of stuff inside the rom threads, to be aware what might be not working or even knowing how to handle problems before they appear.
regards
Dude my phone is rooted( stock rom 2.3.3) .I want to know if I can do something that will make the keyboard damn good like maybe if I port 2.3.4 arc keyboard will it be better or not .our maybe some framework or build.prop mod or something

Ooh that's another thing I want to ask . How to remove the app drawer lag . I reduced it substantially
Though but want to reduce more
Sent from my X10i using xda premium
i don't know a way on stockrom, maybe there are ways to get it done by applying the tweaks all the custom roms use but i'm not that much into this stuff
