[Q] Help - Not sure which ROM to go for ?! - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys im a new android user - about a week old now.
I recently flashed to Lite'ning coz people are talking about it and i guess its popular.
Im not happy with the icons and blue/black theme that comes with it.
Which ROM should I go for if i want to achieve the below theme? I have read a few good ones VillainROM / LeoMar ? What are your suggestions?

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

I think this is only a personal choice. you can always try and flash roms and reflash. Just that its time consuming process and ofcourse *backup* is one important thing.
Hope you find a better one for you

i think your are pretty new in rom flashing, i would recommend you Leomar Rom.
Just download RevolutionRom app from market , it will download it for you ,istall it for you,change themes for you and kernels and......
The revolutionrom app is... wow...., nearly every new tweaks ,themes and other stuff arrives in the app.

The first 2 pictures are MIUI I think with Suave HD icons.
The third is just stock GB or something with Launcher pro and some other stuff.

[Q] CyaonogenMod 7.1 2.3.7 RC2 for Ace

Hey,
first of all I want to thank you guys for this very nice Rom which makes my Ace not running but flying. Everything is running fine but there are two things which make me a little bit trouble:
1. I choosed the Cyanbread Design, but only if Wifi is activated the icon for network reception is "cyan" otherwise its standart gray-white. There are any tricks or fixes for this problem?
Here some screenshots:

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. The Beautiful Widget is working fine with the stock theme, but I can´t theme another skin. I get the message the skin is damaged, but it isn´t. Somebody got it work? I don´t really know, but I think it´s caused by the A2SD.
Yours sincerely
thats a known problem with stock cm theme included. try installing other theme, they'll work.
Thank your for the answer. I´ve installed the ICS MDPI theme but there´s the same issue.

Ah well, this is a feature. Thanks. But does anybody know how I can theme my Beautiful Widget? Does anybody else have got this problem?

[MOD] Circle Battery "Working" Mod for UnNamed v2.2.1

The most recent UnNamed update broke the circle battery mod I was using from this thread (thanks again, SNadler).
I couldn't find a thread with the circle battery mods for the updated UnNamed ROM (v2.2.1) so I went into the Kitchen and "cooked" one up for myself.
The good news is it's way easier to use the Kitchen than I expected (I'm at the "I can follow someone else's directions" level of modding my phone). The bad news is it does take some time to upload the required files and wait for it to be "cooked" (love the Kitchen, definitely throwing some beer money their way).
So I thought I'd post the mod I made for myself in case anyone else wants it. It's the mod called "Working" in the Kitchen and I chose the "Hybrid" charging animation.

It works on my phone but use it at your own risk.
As always back up your phone before installing (you can use Clockwork Mod for both).
Enjoy!

Virtual Soft Keys

Hey! I've searched for a long time some virtual soft keys (on screen buttons) for Galaxy S2 like Nexus ones for stock odexed ICS ROM. Didn't managed to find any, someone can help? ->

Thank you!
Some ROM's like Resurrection Remix (found in Android Development Section) allow you to have the soft keys on screen. Not sure how well they work as I have never used it. I think it would just take up too much of the screen as we have hardware buttons already, but everyone to their own liking. Or you could sell your GS2 and buy a G Nexus!

You can check this thread:

Or, flash an AOKP rom, some MIUI roms have it too, ParanoidAndroid(CM9 based)
Well, thank you both of you.
@themadba - Yea, i know i was curious if was something like that for a stock ROM. Just wanted to test it strictly on a stock ROM, i have test them on AOKP ROM. ( and yeah, pretty useless )
@curodot - that doesn't work for stock odexed apps, like framework.

[Q] camera app doesnt fit to screen

Hi,
So, i just installed hyperx's camera mod for my s3. I already had it once but as I changed to the null_ Rom now, I had to reinstall it.
Installation worked feine but now I get this :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I think it is because of the 240dpi that the null Rom comes with.
Does anyone know how I can fix this? I made the mistake to not backup
I'm really thankful for every kind of help <3

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If it is because of the resolution with that rom, you will have to flash a new rom, either another version of that rom that is built for the SIII screen (which is 720x1280), or an entireley new rom.

Need advice on flashing korean version Galaxy Note LTE (SHV-E160S)

Hi! First off, i'm sorry if this is the wrong sub i don't know where to post this.
My problem is that i'm new on flashing and i want to flash my phone but i am very confused at the moment. I've been researching what custom rom i should use and i from what i gathered is that i have to flash the original stock android first then flash the custom rom? This is what my phone settings looks like at the moment

. I'm running ICS and i want to update to Jellybean. Also, when i was researching i discovered something called cwm 6x and i don't know what's it for. I Dl'ed is as well just in case but now i'm stuck. I would like to learn from you guys on how to do it because i don't want to take a risk on bricking the phone cause i don't have any knowledge on flashing. Also, sorry for asking this question. This has probably asked before but the search engine for some reason is not working for me.
Edit: Also, i dl'ed the stock versions of this phone. It's the 4.1.2 version update. The custom rom i was planning to put on is this rom called EROM-E160K.[eRuiZhi.com].[Sdhjt.ORG].[J2] i dl'ed it from a thread here in xda.
