[Q]Android 4.1.2 from ICS 4.04 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I updated to Galaxy S2 I9100 XXLSJ Android 4.1.2 from ICS 4.04.
When texting I used to be able to click on the microphone icon on the keyboard and speak my message and it would be written and I would send it.
Now after the upgrade the microphone is not there. Am I missing something in settings or is this not available in JellyBean,
Please forgive my ignorance.
Tia Oilyboy.

So there is no "Google voice typing" in settings > language & input >...
?

What type of keyboard are you using? Android keyboard or Samsung keyboard?
Try to Download an app called JellyBean keyboard and see it fix the problem.

found it
I found the answer.
When in text mode
Long press on the settings icon, to the left of Space Bar and select the microphone icon.
Thanks for your help.

[Q] Remove Diopen/Swype from Galaxy S2 4.0.3

Hello,
I recently installed I9100DXLP7 (4.0.3) - Region Indonesia (XSE) [Less Languages] ROM on my Galaxy S2 using Odin.
Eeverything runs fine except that I use and need only the US English keyboard and language on my device, however whenever I type something I see a small keyboard in the notification bar. IO know that this is an ICS feature which helps you to switch keyboard quickly but it is pretty annoying nonetheless.
It shows that I have 3 keyboards on my device, Diopen, Samsung Keyboard and Swype. I have disabled Diopen and I can't disable Swype but even after doing that I still see the Keyboard symbol in the notification bar.
Please tell me how I can just use the default Samsung English keyboard without the keyboard symbol popping up in the notification bar. Also, I'm averse to rooting or hacking the phone to do it. Is there a simple way?
Thank you.
Sorry I am banned from answering posts in the wrong forum.

It's been rectified, please post your thought now. Thanks
No, sorry there's no easy way without rooting youre phone.
If youre S2 is rooted, you can delete the swype and diopen apk in /system/app

[Q] Westcrip Resurrection Remix 1.7 Question

Hi there,
I am using thhis thread since I cannot post in development section due to having to little posts still I would have a query about that ROM I cannot find an answer using search function.
So far I used to use Westcrips Resurrection ROM 1.0, now i updated with Version 1.7 and I had to see that the option in the top panel to toogle lotsa different things like e.g. Screen time and stuff isn´t available any more, but only the 4 standard toggles (BT, WIFI, DATA, Sound) and screen contrast...
Now I remember there had been an app that was administering all those toogles in 1.0 - does anyone know how it´s called or how I can have that toggles on 1.7 as well?
Second 1.7 obviously doesn´t show the battery in 1 percentage intervalls, not even the numbers but only a battery sign. Does anyone know how to fix that?
Thx
go to: menu, system settings, rom control, scroll down to toggles. there you can select 12 toggles.
secondly the battery icon etc. you can change in: menu, systemsettings, rom control, scroll down to battery. there you can change a lot about baterrystuff.
greetings
thx a lot.
what about swype? That seems to be gone?

Westcrip changed the base of the rom to aokp that's why you see the different changes.
To get swype back go beta.swype.com and register and download the apk.

well I did so, but the problem is that when installing that swype beta you only get english or espanol to choose while I would need a german swype...

you can search in google for: swype-installer.apk
install this
then you can select the swype keyboard
greetings
Search through the development thread .. there is a thread that is solely for.missing Samsung apps that includes the default swype with all the languages.
Download that, flash via cwm and you should get all missing apps.
Sorry for not directly linking but am on phone.
Good luck.

[Q] ics dialer

I have a question regarding to the ICS dialer. Usually the GB stock dialer has 4 tabs that include contacts in one of them. However, in stock ICS, it only shows 3 tabs on the top: keypad, logs, favorites.
Is there anyways to bring back contacts in there? or do i have to exit and go to contacts every time.
I upgraded through Kies to ICS 4.0.3.
Thanks in advance.
1: instead of going out, just press menu.
2: lpw and the leaked Iraq ROM both have contacts in dialer.
Under favorites there is an option to see the other contacts as well..

Secure Mode Toggle !

Hi guys !
Does anyone know any Mod or App through which we can get "Secure Mode" toggle (The one which comes with JKay framework).
Unfortunately JKay has stopped development for S2 after ICS 4.0.3. So i wish i can just move on, if i atleast get this toggle from somewhere.
Regards.

CM's roms have it for default.
Ofcourse.
But i am looking for a standalone addon/toggle, so that i can use it with any rom (addicted to flash different roms )
I've been googling this for so long :banghead:

app icons on stock jb 4.1.2

hi,I'm running jb official leak 4.1.2 and everything works well.my only issue is that the applications icons don't show a visual feedback when pressed,so when u touch the icon it doesn't show that its been pushed,it would just launch the app,and this is only with apps whether pushed from the home screen or from the apps list,otherwise all the menus do show a push effect when pushed.I was using phelz kernal and now changed to jeboo kernal.anyway or work around this available ?thanks for ur help in advance.
Well because it is meant to be like this by samsung itself....any type of touch visual feedback is absent although you may enable touch sounds from sound menu in settings so you know when you touch an icon
Or you may even try using some third party launcher like go launcher etc
