Only issues I've noticed coming from KH3 are:
1. The default font sucks (and there's only two other slightly less sucky choices)
Can we get the fonts from KH3 anywhere?
2. The lock screen clock has a leading "0" even when not needed, so the clock in the lockscreen reads, for example: 04:25PM. Of course, I'm not on 24 hour preferences in the display, or this would read differently (I tried it.)
Not thrilled about that at all. Anyone else see that?
3. The dialer says "Favourites" which isn't a US English spelling, despite the fact that this is how I use my phone primarily, and how it is set now in Language preferences.

Did you notice any slight stutter while passing through pages on the main screen? This seems only exist when the background is picture wallpaper, not noticable on live wallpaper. No stutter feeling in application menu page changing. I used kf3 before this and there were not any stutter.

The fonts are in /system/fonts folder. I am on KH4 and not noticed any difference.
I suppose you could copy the KH3 fonts into the KH4 folder and reboot your phone.
I have not tried this as I am using the Choco cooky font.
As an alternative, you can do a google search for fonts and install the ones you like. I tried this and installed some interesting fonts but got tired of them after awhile.
As far as cycling through the screens, I have not noticed anything out of the ordinary. I am using Launcherpro Plus.
What about the leading 0 in the lockscreen clock?
How can I get rid of that? I hate it. I flashed back to KH3 and cleared everything via CWM, yet it persisted. I went back to KH4 and did the same thing, still there.
For example, I'm on 12 hour time US English settings and my lockscreen clock will read: 09:45 PM
The dialer still says "Favourites" instead of "Favorites."
Anyone?
(I'd also love it if someone could post the KH3 fonts)

Just a thought is their a American English language pack .

I have noticed some weird effects on my screen since upgrading to KH4 where fonts arent completely black, but lets say in the sentence "The cat ate the bird" two of the words would be slightly grey, and this occurs throughout black text on white backgrounds.
Also I have noticed the left side of the screen in some apps, seems to be darker than the right.. so i'm going back to UK stock KE7 to see whether it still does that.
Apart from those, it seems blazing fast with no bugs from what I can see.

The thing is that the leading "0" in the lockscreen clock is wrong in ANY language.
For example, if you change 2:00 PM to 24 hour time, it should read 14:00
In this ROM, using 12 hour time, the lockscreen clock reads 02:00PM
That's the problem, and I'm not sure how to solve it, but I don't think the language is the issue, because the ROM has US English as an option... and I'm using it.
Is there anything positive about KH4 compared to KH3 which can be noticed?
There is no us firmware released yet, so that's why "favorites" is "favourites" and the issue with the clock its not an issue at all, I'm on kh3 and its the same.

Thanks for that. I'm really surprised if that's the case, because I was almost positive that the lockscreen clock wasn't like that for me when I first flashed KH3. I was pretty sure it only started for me after KH4, but I could be wrong.
Can anyone else corroborate that?

I tweaked my build.prop file to reflect 160 density, and haven't noticed any significant battery save.
However (as noted in a previous post), changing the density in our build.prop files as of now seems to cause all sorts of clusterf*** with many HTC apps (people, calculator, mail, footprints, peep). I haven't figured out why that is, and for now I've just replaced them w/ 3rd party apps because I can do without them for the sake of having the LCD density I want lol.
Hopefully one of us lands on the answer of how to mod the build.prop w/o causing numerous HTC FC's in the process.
Agreed with the HTC apps, I went 3rd party too. Most have similar (if not better) functionality. Thanks for actually getting back about my op.

BTW, I tested out 140-180 densities, and 170 seems to perform the best on our phones in terms of widget responsiveness, while maintaining a clean pixelation. I also keep the brightness @ a cool 20% (unless i'm in bright sunlight). No complaints so far.
Oh, and "contapps" from the Market = what the HTC "People" app should be. Check it out.

Have you ever seen GB on HTC devices? All the factors of GB are gone there too. This glow effect and screen off animation is a trade mark of Google Nexus S I guess. Thats why Samsung and HTC don't have it on their devices.
But the good thing is that you can get these effects on the GALAXY S

This is a reason why JVK has a multitouch problem.
I haven't taken the plunge as yet but I guess they got rid of bugs and stability issues in this build. Don't think the build was based on looks but rather performance.
That's why we have stock roms, to improve on everything from the looks to performance the stock roms are missing

1.) Recalibrate your battery once
2.) Pull battery off and let it outside the phone for at least one hour.
3.) Put it back to the phone, boot charge up again to 100% and recalibrate it again
After this your stats should count precise again...
The purpose of this thread is to consolidate a list of all the bugs in the Galaxy S II which are yet to be fixed by Samsung.
At the outset, kudos to Samsung for not only bringing us this awesome phone but also showing its commitment to support it by bringing out frequent updates (3 in the last month itself)!!! Some bugs which are found in various forums and threads are yet to be fixed.
So I thought to start this thread so that (maybe & hopefully) someone from Samsung support can look into this and address these in the next update(s)...
So here are some that I know of...please add yours (I will try update the first post with all), and also post if any of these are resolved so that I can delete them from the first post.
Definition of bug (for purpose of this thread) - is a bug which is widely acknowledged and reported as occurring in the stock firmware - and does not includ bugs experienced by only some users (which could be due to specific apps installed by such users).
These bugs exist as of update KWE7...
1. Android OS using up battery - still shows to use as much as 20% of battery
2. Third party keyboards (such as Swiftkey, Gingerbread KB, Smartkeyboard) - text prediction does not work in default email app - compose mode (probably because the field is defined incorrectly in the firmware).
3. Slight lag in waking up from lock screen.
Random restarts. Used my tracks to track a six hour walk this morning only to find the phone had restarted just before we got back to the car. This resulted in all the data being lost. Not impressed!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Folders not updating as shortcuts on homescreen
Regarding random restarts I haven't had a single one in over two weeks of constant use. Perhaps it's caused by an installed app rather than anything provided by Samsung?
As for my gripe, the classic wifi signal strength would be the main one although it doesn't really effect my use of wifi so it's no massive deal. Another issue would be how hot this thing can get but short of underclocking the CPU I can't see how that could be properly resolved.

I also agree, how come the banding is so obvious on this. The screen is great, a very nice upgrade to the previous amoled. It would be nice to really see no banding on a screen this caliber...I know it can be fixed with a software update, but still. Bad samsung, baaad!
And one bug that would be nice to fix is the wake up lag of the lockscreen. Mine takes 1-2 seconds depending on the situation. Tends to get a bit annoying.
I thought the banding was due to the depth currently being 16bit. Quite why Samsung released the phone with this colour depth is another thing but if it's true either Samsung themselves or a custom rom will change that eventually.

Yeah it's not a display issue, more of a software issue which I'm sure supercurio will work his magic on.

Hi! Is it just me or has swype become almost unuseable since a few ROMs back when it went from popping a box up to horizontal suggestions above the keyboard.
I'm not talking about the aesthetics, it seems as though the dictionary selection, accuracy and changing of half typed and corrected words is just terrible.
Prior to the update I used to breeze through, now I'm lucky to swype in a few words without an epic correction struggle against its will to correct and change.
Swype, once a selling point and a joy to use now just plain sucks for me, and the thought of using it turns me off productive tasks.
Just me? Bad settings? I look forward to peoples input. I can't exactly remember when the change occurred, it was when it went horizontal instead of pop up.

I don't intend to hijack, but I couldn't have an android phone without Swiftkey X on it... only complaint is that I have to use the gmail app for my email instead of the Samsung email one because it is very buggy on the Samsung one....
Same here. Old swype was more accurate.
I did two things:
1) Remove swype that comes with the rom, install the beta from swype.com (its newer)
2) Disable autocorrect
I absolutely love the new one. Much better than before and just as accurate.
The new Swype rocks! Especially with the horizontal word choice window. I can't even consider going back to 2.7. No problems with accuracy whatsoever with the new version on my phone.
It's not just me! Latest Cognition 1.50 just released and Swype has been reverted to 2.x, Designgears said the following:
"I think the new versions suck too, it is no even usable anymore, I can type my message 3x faster with the stock samsung keyboard."

Quit the bull - if you didn't mean to hijack, why are you doing it? Is this an accidental hijack? Jerk.
On topic - never been a huge Swype fan, but been playing with it a bit this weekend - and I concur with those that say the new version is hopeless.
Still a noob with it, but my accuracy was much, much better on the old version.
Not sure I'll stay with Swype anyway - old dog, new tricks....
Make sure you check your Swype accuracy settings. I put mine closer towards the error tolerance end now. Still works fine.

I don't like it that much, have to swipe twice/thrice for a simple word like 'or'. I used T9 Trace on my S8500 before and it never had any problem, even if I swiped on some wrong letters it ultimately gave me the right word.
I am on 2.72 version, at default setting.

Yep same here. Spent more time struggling with auto-correction than actually swyping.
I use TouchPal's keyboard now. Surprisingly accurate even when you mash the wrong buttons, high degree of customisability (you can even use the classic numpad keyboard), and they will also be implementing the swyping functionality in the next major release (hopefully more usable than the current version of Swype).
I've found, disabling auto correction helps a million.

I absolutely agree with every word you said. Please if someone can tell me a way of downgrading to an older version, i will be ever grateful. Its terrible now!!
from my perspective.. swype 3 is better than swype 2 .. well the horizontal word suggestions eats up a line, but in exchange it's easier to scroll down (or right ) for the words.. it's true that it's not perfect when selecting words.. but overall.. it's still the best keyboard...

Weird. My buddy has the same problem as me, so I thought for sure it's universal. We're both on a variant of the same ROM though so maybe there is a specific issue to our software...
The problem is when refreshing (via the new pulldown mechanism or the menu) or changing to a different section. The display area essentially gets shrunken to about 1/10th the screen height.
Guess I'll have to do some more investigation. Sorry for the alarm.

Is that stock JVR?
It looks modded to me, or is that just a different launcher you're using?
No problems at all here on JVR odexed simplicity ROM and semaphore 1.6
facebook app works very good

It's just GO Launcher. Otherwise odexed JVR. Kernel is TalonSH but I flashed to stock for pure curiosity and it didn't fix it, obviously.
This problem is driving me nuts – the only thing I haven't done is a full wipe. I can't believe no one else has the same issue...

Dont worry, you're not insane. Seeing the same issue here. Box-stock JVR.
I just got an update for the facebook app, maybe the problem was more wide-spread.
Even after this morning's update the problem is still there for me.
The weird part is, on the very FIRST run on the app - if you've cleared the data and are signing in - the problem is NOT present on the initial News Feed view.
As soon as I close that view and restart the app, the problem is back.
