It work with I8200N? Because i don't want brick it

First it will be only a soft brick if such. Flashing via Odin should fix the potential brick. But there is a very low probability of brick since the difference is only that I8200N support NFC whereas I8200 doesn't.

Gladly after flashing the Stock Rom via Odin everything was okay.
I modified the build.prop per computer/editor...maybe that made a problem.
I´ll try again and modify the build.prop with the device directly...and lets see whats happens.
Is there anyone who already uses a custom recovery?

I'm glad you got it to work!

Guys if you were making some changes in build.prop files, and your phone still working you didnt change anything then. Properly changed build.prop file after reboot goes in soft boot loop (Samsung logo flashing). So do not make any changes in build.prop, its not safe to do that. Im telling this because i teted my phone three times. If you dont belive me try to pull build.prop file to computer (through Android commander) and you'll se error

Yes, I am. I'm using a TWRP. I edited my build.prop with Root Explorer, everything works fine. Even DPI Density changing. Values of 180,204,240,264 are working.
I also added those modifications to my build.prop and they are working fine.
First Screenshot is 204dpi and second is 180dpi

2.[port from MS1][QUOTE]added options to limit max CPU frequency when screen is off and when phone is in car dock
(When the phone is in car dock it can easily overheat as there is usually: heavy navigation app running, gps in use, battery charging, 3g in use, sun shining directly at phone behind front car window. All this together can lead to battery temperature rising above 50C at which point the charging is automatically stopped to prevent battery damage and you can end up with phone battery empty after some time despite phone being connected to charger. So the CPU freq limit for car dock is there to help with this temperature issue.)[/QUOTE]

[ROM][DEV][CM11.0][KERNEL][SGH-I757M]UNOFFICIAL CM11.0 For Bell SGH-I757M

CM11.0 for Canadian Samsung Galaxy S2 HD LTE (SGH-I757M)
Code:
[COLOR="red"][B][SIZE="4"]*** Disclamer ***[/SIZE][/B]
THIS ROM IS FOR THE CANADIAN SGH-I757M ONLY... DO NOT FLASH IT ON ANOTHER DEVICE!
By flashing this ROM, you are voiding your phones warranty (Unless you return it
to complete stock which is possible, but beyond the scope of this thread). You
also agree that I will in no way be held responsible in the event that your
device becomes bricked (Not likely to happen). In addition, you are responsible
to take the necessary backups of your apps, data, sms, contacts, calendar events, etc.
If you agree, then please continue on ;)[/COLOR]
Code:
[COLOR="red"][B][SIZE="4"]*** NEW RECOVERY REQUIRED ***[/SIZE][/B]
Due to the addition of user control in CM10.1/CM10.2/CM11.0, you are required to update
your recovery to a supported recovery with a version greater than 6.0.39. As of this writing, the latest available
version is Philz Touch Recovery 6.57.9 (based on CWM 6.0.51) for the SGH-I757M. There is currently not a
version of regular CWM for this device that will flash Kit Kat ROMs.
If you flash the new ROM with the old incompatible recovery, you risk loosing
your sdcard under a bunch of subfolders.[/COLOR]
Code:
[COLOR="red"][B][SIZE="4"]*** NEW RADIO FIRMWARE REQUIRED ***[/SIZE][/B]
As of CM10.1, ICS radios (I757MUGLH2) are no longer supported. You must download the new JB radios (I757MUGMC5).[/COLOR]
Introduction
It's finally here :-D CM11.0 (Android4.4.x) for the Bell Canada Samsung Galaxy S2 HD LTE (SGH-I757M). There is a lot to be said about Kit Kat with it's clean white icons and new launcher. The focus with Kit Kat was to make the device use less RAM and imrove performance, and so far it's running great.

What Doesn't Work
* I experienced an incompatibility with some of my existing mp4 media files and when gallery tries to load them they cause a soft reboot. Loading these videos into the gallery media player using a 3rd party file manager seems to work without issue, it is the loading of the preview in gallery that causes the phone to crash.
Solution: The solution is to use a file manager to move the mp4 files to a new directory and add a ".nomedia" file to that directory so that when browsing photos in the gallery, it does not try to load the offending mp4 files.

Pre-Installation instructions
1) Download to your sdcard, the new Philz Touch Recovery 6.57.9 flashable zip which is compatible with CM10.1/CM10.2/CM11.0
2) Enter your existing CWM Recovery
3) Install Zip From sdcard
4) Select the philz_touch_6.12.8-celoxhd.zip that you downloaded to your sdcard
5) Flash the new Recovery
6) Go back to the main recovery menu and go Advanced -> Reboot Recovery (This might not actually reboot you into recovery, you may have to do that manually by turning off phone and using 3-button combo)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now that you have the new recovery flashed to your device, you can continue to install this ROM.
Please be aware that the new recovery detects your sdcards (internal/external) in a different way. Your internal sdcard is recognized as /storage/sdcard0 and your external sdcard is recognized as /storage/sdcard1.

Changelog
Code:
[B]November 22, 2014 - Build 20141122[/B]
* Increased kernel version to Titanium 1.1.1
* Added cpu input boost framework - credit: sultanxda
* Added cpu OC (The scale goes up to 1890MHz, but you should only put it as high as 1836MHz since I was getting random reboots with 1890MHz. 1674MHz is the default OC and 1512MHz is the default CM OC) - credit: TeamFahQ/sultanxda/titanic-fanatic
* Added low power flash mode which will use a low powered flash when the battery is equal to or below 35%. This should help with the camera causing the phone to shut down when trying to take pictures using the flash. This threshold may need to be tweaked, so please let me know if you still experience shut downs related to using the camera. - credit: sultanxda
* Added sgs2hdbell as a device name to the updater-script to allow all bell i757m devices to flash the ROM without the need to edit the updater-script.
* Added panel undervolt interface. - credit: sultanxda
* More memory optimizations. Some of the extra RAM that the previous optimization gave us has been allocated to other things such as the surface flinger. Available RAM is now around ~760MB.
* Removed vbus_present wakelock for good (it worked it's way back in somehow)
* Added fast charge. Phone will now charge at 1200mA until 95% regardless of your charging source (AC/USB)
* Added exFAT driver to kernel. It's a filesystem like ext4 but is based on Windows FAT filesystem. You can format your sdcard as exFAT as it's supposed to be faster than vFAT which is what our sdcards are formatted as. Make sure you backup your sdcard contents before formatting it as exFAT and keep the backup until your sure you want to stick with exFAT.
* Removed NFC since I don't think anyone uses it and can't figure out how to have it disabled by default so it is removed completely. If someone is using NFC, let me know and I'll add it back but for now, I just see it as a battery drain.
[B]September 10, 2014 - Build 20140910[/B]
* Kernel now has a custom version number in addition to my kernel name of Titanium
* Optimized kernel memory mapping to increase our physical RAM from ~730MB to ~800MB (a whole 70 extra MB... whoa!)- credit: sultanxda
* Removed mDNIe (it's not supported/working)
* Removed 91fixoverlays script (no longer needed)
* Removed persist.hwc.mdpcomp.enabled from build.prop (hack to fix the hwoverlays because fb drivers are broken somehow) - credit: sultanxda
* Added GPU overclock from 266MHz to 320MHz (helps a lot with the UI lag) - credit: sultanxda
* Added code for 2 phase OnDemand governor - credit: sultanxda
* Added opensource frandom module to help speed up the UI (also helps with the lag) - credit: bryan2894
* Added mdp Color Enhancements (better display color) - credit: sultanxda
* Added color/gamma controls in place of mDNIe (see the tips and tricks section for my already tweaked favorite settings) - credit: bryan2894/titanic_fanatic (I had to integrate it into our display drivers)
* Added Swipe 2 Wake (S2W) support in the kernel (it's actually tap once on each key from left to right). - credit: bryan2894
* Added audio.r_submix.default.so to the build to enable screencasting - credit: [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/hardware-hacking/chromecast/experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193"]THIS POST[/URL]
* Added the necessary audio channels in the audio_policy.conf for screencasting - credit: [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/hardware-hacking/chromecast/experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193"]THIS POST[/URL]
* Added the necessary settings in Advanced Device Settings for screencasting and color/gamma control - credit: bryan2894/titanic_fanatic (I added the screencasting settings)
* Fixed the annoying BLN sticking (I think... Please confirm this for me) - credit: bryan2894
* Fixed the sampling rates for A2DP, input and r_submix channels - credit: bryan2894
* Changed both scaling governors to OnDemand - credit: bryan2894

FAQ
Q. How do I install SuperSu?
A. Install the latest version from the market. Then open SuperSU and when it asks you to update the superuser binary, answer yes and make sure you select the "TWRP/CWM" method. This will reboot your phone into receovery where the superuser binary will be updated and the su daemon script added. Reboot your phone and you should be rooted.
If your having difficulties getting SuperSu installed, try downloading the flashable zip and manually flashing it to your phone.
UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip
* Thanks to @formercontra for this tip *
* Make sure this is the way in which you want to manage superuser permissions as I have not yet found a way to revert to the integrated superuser without having to re-flash the rom
Q. How do I access Developer Options?
A. Go to Settings -> About Phone and scroll to the bottom. Press the Build number 7 times to activate the Developer Options.
Q. I was browsing my pictures/videos in the gallery and my phone rebooted?
A. This seems to be caused by the gallery trying to generate a preview from the first frame of an mp4 created on older versions. Simply move the mp4's to a different directory with a file manager and add a ".nomedia" file to the folder to stop the gallery from trying to scan them. To open them, open with a filemanager and then select the gallery media player and it will play without issue.

Here are my settings for the color/gamma controls!
Color:
Red -> 60%
Green -> 45%
Blue -> 45%
Gamma:
Red -> 0
Green -> -5
Blue -> 5
Why does the color/gamma controls get set to a value other than what I've set?
This is something I have not yet resolved, but I have noticed that it seems to jump up by 5. So if you want 50% for example, try setting it to 45%.
Logcat what is it and how do I get one?
A logcat is the system log of events that occur on your device. This log provides the developers with some useful information pertaining to crashes and other bugs you may encounter while using the ROM and/or apps running on the ROM. Getting a logcat is generally a very simple thing. Just open your terminal emulator on your phone and type the following commands without typing the $ as it denotes a command on the command line:
$ su
$ logcat -v long > /sdcard/logcat.txt
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The first command above will ask you to grant superuser permission to the terminal emulator which you must accept. The second command will create a file at the root of your sdcard called logcat.txt and then start writing the logs to this file. Since the logcat is a continuous function, your terminal emulator will not return you to the command prompt after the second command as it will continue to write logs until you stop it by pressing the x to close the emulator.
If you are experiencing an issue with an app, then you need to do the steps above to get the logcat recording, then press your home button so that you don't close the emulator, but put it in the background. Then you do the action that causes the bug to occur and then open the emulator and terminate it to stop the log from writing. this ensures that the error is located somewhere around the end of the log and makes it easier for us to spot
How do I take a dmesg (kernel log)?
It's fairly simple, open up your terminal then type the following:
$ su
$ dmesg > /storage/sdcard0/dmesg.txt
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This will save the log to the root of your sdcard as dmesg.txt. Just post that or send it to [email protected] if it's to large to post here
What is dalvik-cache and why do I need it?
To explain dalvik cache, you must understand how an app is pieced together. An apk (android app) is like a zip file and contains a bunch of files inside. Two important files to note are the resources.arsc and the classes.dex files. They are compiled versions of the resources (images, sounds, xml files) and classes (source code files) of the app. When android boots into a ROM for the first time, and everytime you install an app, the system performs an optimization called dex optimization which means that is pulls the dex file out of the app and places it into what is called your dalvik cache. The system can then pre-load these dex files and allow the app to start quickly.
Dalvik cache is stored in two locations, at /data/dalvik-cache for user apps and at /cache/dalvik-cache for system apps. We unfortunately have a very small partition for /cache, only 100MB and this sometimes causes a side effect on first boot where it fills up to much with apps that only ever run on the first boot to setup the system and then other dex files cannot be written to the /cache partition which causes them to Force Close (FC). The trick in this situation, is to bear through the FC messages to get the system to the home screen, then reboot into recovery and Wipe Dalvik Cache from the Advanced sub-menu. This will delete all the dex files in both locations I mentioned above and will force the system to regenerate them upon reboot, and this time, those 1-time running apps don't start up and don't end up being optimized which allows the necessary dex files to be created for the apps that were FC'ing.
I have moved what I could from the system partition to the data partition to spare some extra space on /cache but this still sometimes happens, especially as the ROM's get slightly bigger every new major version.
Flashing Recovery for the First Time
Flashing CWM for the First Time
This is a pretty simple step once you get past the install recovery script which I'll explain how to accomplish. Make sure you follow the instructions closely because Odin, the program the we use to bypass the security, can do some serious damage to your phone if your not careful.
1) Download the latest CWM tar.md5 to your computer from my androidfilehost.com repo here:
http://www.androidfilehost.com/user/?w=settings-dev-files&flid=12461
2) Download Odin 1.8.5 zip and extract all the files to a folder on your computer (i use my desktop):
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358544719
3) The drivers are very touchy on windows computers, so I recommend that you install Samsung Kies which will ensure that the drivers are installed and setup correctly. You can download kies from here:
http://www.samsung.com/ca/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/JSP
4) Be careful now that you have kies installed, it does not play nicely with Odin, so whenever you use Odin, you should ensure that kies is completely closed and not open in the system tray by opening your Task Manager and "End Task" to any kies process such as "Kies.exe" and "KiesTrayAgent.exe"
5) Now, with kies closed, open Odin and do not change any settings. It should look like this:
6) Now click on the Bootloader button and search for the CWM tar.md5 you downloaded from my androidfilehost.
7) Now turn off your phone, and when it's powered off, press and hold the volume down and power buttons at the same time until you see the warning message about Download mode. Press volume up to enter download mode.
8) With Kies closed on your computer and Odin open cwm tar.md5 loaded into the bootloader section and your phone in Download mode, plug your phone into the computer with your micro usb cord and wait for odin to display a "Device Added" message which tells you that odin sees your phone.
9) This is the tricky part and is all based on timing, so pay close attention.
10) You will now press the "Start" button in odin and wait for it to complete. It will display a green "Pass" message in the first box when it's done. At this time, the phone will reboot and will start with a slight vibration to notify you that it's booting up. It's exactly at the time that the phone vibrates that you need to immediately remove the micro usb cord and press and hold the volume up and volume down buttons simultaneously until cwm loads. If you miss this mark, android will boot, the install_recovery.sh script will run and overwrite the cwm you just flashed with the old stock 3e recovery (arghhh) and you will have to go through this process again.
If CWM complains about the install_recovery script, let it fix/remove it.
Once you have CWM flashed, you can use it to backup/restore your system, flash custom ROMs and you can even flash our CWM upgrades through CWM itself.
First Wood Woot !! And many thankyous.
Update-
This Rom is flawless so far. I have no issues that existed for me in CM10.2JB . Status Bar doesn't freeze. Apps aren't killed mid use. Calender sync was fixed by installing Google calendar from play store and then removing it. (I use Cal app). There's almost no lag in multi tasking. I'm very happy.?? kit Kat!
Let's all hit TFs donate button with a few bucks, eh?
Much appreciated. Downloading now.
Sweet, a thread here instead of g+!

For me the gallery issue was gone after switched to the next branch.
Crossbreeder won't install (it did on the earlier 4.4 builds).. but Adaway works just fine and everything's working smoothly. Love the music in the lockscreen! also noticed there's even more governor parameters to tweak, which is always a good thing

That's due to the new recovery. If your on a Windows system, download 7zip if you don't have it already.
Here's what you do, open this roms zip file and extract only the update-binary from META-INF/com/google/android to a location on your computer. Then you can close the ROM zip. Now open the crossbreeder zip with 7zip and browse to META-INF/com/google/android and simply drag the extracted update-binary into the crossbreeder zip file replacing it's update-binary with the one from cm-11. Then close the zip and upload to your phone and flash away

Did you wipe and factory reset? Did you use the wipe to install new rom option?
This ROM must be flashed clean. No dirty flashing unless you already had cm-11 flashed.

I am curious, in your 10.2 thread you said the calendar could not be assigned a gmail account in cm 11.
Was this resolved? For me it's a deal breaker (loving your cm10.2 anyways).
If it hasn't been fixed could we add it to the OP in the what doesn't work section?

Philz touch cwm was just updated and now uses a new exfat module for mounting the sdcards. It's supposed to be faster than the fuse alternative. This version also fixes the resolution of the background image, the software buttons and the vibration.

The calendar works in slim. I think the calendar sync adapter is missing in cm-11. Can I get someone to add this apk to your /system/app dir give it the same permissions as the others, then reboot and try connecting the calendar to your Google account. I'm out of the house right now so can't test it myself.

*** Disclamer ***
THIS ROM IS FOR THE CANADIAN SGH-I757M ONLY... DO NOT FLASH IT ON ANOTHER DEVICE!
By flashing this ROM, you are voiding your phones warranty (Unless you return it
to complete stock which is possible, but beyond the scope of this thread). You
also agree that I will in no way be held responsible in the event that your
device becomes bricked (Not likely to happen). In addition, you are responsible
to take the necessary backups of your apps, data, sms, contacts, calendar events, etc.
If you agree, then please continue on

*** NEW RECOVERY REQUIRED ***
Due to the addition of user control in CM10.1/CM10.2/CM11.0, you are required to update
your recovery to a supported recovery with a version greater than 6.0.39. As of this writing, the latest available
version is Philz Touch Recovery 6.57.9 (based on CWM 6.0.5.1) for the SGH-I757M. There is currently not a
version of regular CWM for this device that will flash Kit Kat ROMs.
If you flash the new ROM with the old incompatible recovery, you risk loosing
your sdcard under a bunch of subfolders.

What Doesn't Work
* I experienced an incompatibility with some of my existing mp4 media files and when gallery tries to load them they cause a soft reboot. Loading these videos into the gallery media player using a 3rd party file manager seems to work without issue, it is the loading of the preview in gallery that causes the phone to crash.
Solution: The solution is to use a file manager to move the mp4 files to a new directory and add a ".nomedia" file to that directory so that when browsing photos in the gallery, it does not try to load the offending mp4 files.

Changelog
January 25, 2015 - Build 20140125
* Increased Kernel version to Titanium 1.2.1
* Added kernel based thermal mitigation sensor - credit: sultanxda
* GPU ion backport from LA.AF.1.1_rb1.7 - credit: sultanxda
* New Bluetooth/WiFi drivers ported from the S5 - credit: sultanxda
* Revert change to camera wrapper that cause photos to be taken in portrait

* Add Enhanced BLN - credit: sultanxda
* Updated Advanced Device Settings to work with the new Enhanced BLN driver
* Add kernel tab to Advanced Device Settings for kernel control settings
* Moved panel UV setting to kernel tab in Advanced Device Settings
* Removed ROMStats and CarbonDelta since we don't use them and they only consume battery and network bandwidth
* Increased vmalloc size from 400MB to 512MB - credit: sultanxda
* Add Dynamic System Bars from Paranoid Android ROM
November 21, 2014 - Build 20141121
* Increased kernel version to Titanium 1.1.1
* Added cpu input boost framework - credit: sultanxda
* Added cpu OC (The scale goes up to 1890MHz, but you should only put it as high as 1836MHz since I was getting random reboots with 1890MHz. 1674MHz is the default OC and 1512MHz is the default CM OC) - credit: TeamFahQ/sultanxda/titanic-fanatic
* Added low power flash mode which will use a low powered flash when the battery is equal to or below 35%. This should help with the camera causing the phone to shut down when trying to take pictures using the flash. This threshold may need to be tweaked, so please let me know if you still experience shut downs related to using the camera. - credit: sultanxda
* Added sgs2hdbell as a device name to the updater-script to allow all bell i757m devices to flash the ROM without the need to edit the updater-script.
* Added panel undervolt interface. - credit: sultanxda
* More memory optimizations. Some of the extra RAM that the previous optimization gave us has been allocated to other things such as the surface flinger. Available RAM is now around ~760MB.
* Removed vbus_present wakelock for good (it worked it's way back in somehow)
* Added fast charge. Phone will now charge at 1200mA until 95% regardless of your charging source (AC/USB)
* Added exFAT driver to kernel. It's a filesystem like ext4 but is based on Windows FAT filesystem. You can format your sdcard as exFAT as it's supposed to be faster than vFAT which is what our sdcards are formatted as. Make sure you backup your sdcard contents before formatting it as exFAT and keep the backup until your sure you want to stick with exFAT.
* Removed NFC since I don't think anyone uses it and can't figure out how to have it disabled by default so it is removed completely. If someone is using NFC, let me know and I'll add it back but for now, I just see it as a battery drain.
NOTE: With the overclocking of this kernel, all antutu tests passed up to 1836MHz. At 1890MHz, antutu caused the phone to reboot during the String Sort tests. This is so far the only thing that has caused reboots, but there may be other actions that will cause this too. If you find that your device is randomly rebooting, turn the overclock down by one step (ie: from 1836MHz to 1782MHz which is one step lower). Then go back to using your phone normally. If you still get random reboots, keep turning the OC down until it doesn't happen anymore.
September 10, 2014 - Build 20140911
* Kernel now has a custom version number in addition to my kernel name of Titanium
* Optimized kernel memory mapping to increase our physical RAM from ~730MB to ~800MB (a whole 70 extra MB... whoa!) - credit: sultanxda
* Removed mDNIe (it's not supported/working)
* Removed 91fixoverlays script (no longer needed)
* Removed persist.hwc.mdpcomp.enabled from build.prop (hack to fix the hwoverlays because fb drivers are broken somehow) - credit: sultanxda
* Added GPU overclock from 266MHz to 320MHz (helps a lot with the UI lag) - credit: sultanxda
* Added code for 2 phase OnDemand governor - credit: sultanxda
* Added opensource frandom module to help speed up the UI (also helps with the lag) - credit: bryan2894
* Added mdp Color Enhancements (better display color) - credit: sultanxda
* Added color/gamma controls in place of mDNIe (see the tips and tricks section for my already tweaked favorite settings) - credit: bryan2894/titanic_fanatic (I had to integrate it into our display drivers)
* Added Swipe 2 Wake (S2W) support in the kernel (it's actually tap once on each key from left to right). - credit: bryan2894
* Added audio.r_submix.default.so to the build to enable screencasting - credit: THIS POST
* Added the necessary audio channels in the audio_policy.conf for screencasting - credit: THIS POST
* Added the necessary settings in Advanced Device Settings for screencasting and color/gamma control - credit: bryan2894/titanic_fanatic (I added the screencasting settings)
* Fixed the annoying BLN sticking (I think... Please confirm this for me) - credit: bryan2894
* Fixed the sampling rates for A2DP, input and r_submix channels - credit: bryan2894
* Changed both scaling governors to OnDemand - credit: bryan2894

FAQ
Q. How do I install SuperSu?
A. Install the latest version from the market. Then open SuperSU and when it asks you to update the superuser binary, answer yes and make sure you select the "TWRP/CWM" method. This will reboot your phone into receovery where the superuser binary will be updated and the su daemon script added. Reboot your phone and you should be rooted.
If your having difficulties getting SuperSu installed, try downloading the flashable zip and manually flashing it to your phone.
UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip
* Thanks to @formercontra for this tip *
* Make sure this is the way in which you want to manage superuser permissions as I have not yet found a way to revert to the integrated superuser without having to re-flash the rom
Q. How do I access Developer Options?
A. Go to Settings -> About Phone and scroll to the bottom. Press the Build number 7 times to activate the Developer Options.
Q. I was browsing my pictures/videos in the gallery and my phone rebooted?
A. This seems to be caused by the gallery trying to generate a preview from the first frame of an mp4 created on older versions. Simply move the mp4's to a different directory with a file manager and add a ".nomedia" file to the folder to stop the gallery from trying to scan them. To open them, open with a filemanager and then select the gallery media player and it will play without issue.

Here are my settings for the color/gamma controls!
Color:
Red -> 60%
Green -> 45%
Blue -> 45%
Gamma:
Red -> 0
Green -> -5
Blue -> 5
Why does the color/gamma controls get set to a value other than what I've set?
This is something I have not yet resolved, but I have noticed that it seems to jump up by 5. So if you want 50% for example, try setting it to 45%.
Logcat what is it and how do I get one?
A logcat is the system log of events that occur on your device. This log provides the developers with some useful information pertaining to crashes and other bugs you may encounter while using the ROM and/or apps running on the ROM. Getting a logcat is generally a very simple thing. Just open your terminal emulator on your phone and type the following commands without typing the $ as it denotes a command on the command line:
$ su
$ logcat -v long > /sdcard/logcat.txt
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The first command above will ask you to grant superuser permission to the terminal emulator which you must accept. The second command will create a file at the root of your sdcard called logcat.txt and then start writing the logs to this file. Since the logcat is a continuous function, your terminal emulator will not return you to the command prompt after the second command as it will continue to write logs until you stop it by pressing the x to close the emulator.
If you are experiencing an issue with an app, then you need to do the steps above to get the logcat recording, then press your home button so that you don't close the emulator, but put it in the background. Then you do the action that causes the bug to occur and then open the emulator and terminate it to stop the log from writing. this ensures that the error is located somewhere around the end of the log and makes it easier for us to spot
What is dalvik-cache and why do I need it?
To explain dalvik cache, you must understand how an app is pieced together. An apk (android app) is like a zip file and contains a bunch of files inside. Two important files to note are the resources.arsc and the classes.dex files. They are compiled versions of the resources (images, sounds, xml files) and classes (source code files) of the app. When android boots into a ROM for the first time, and everytime you install an app, the system performs an optimization called dex optimization which means that is pulls the dex file out of the app and places it into what is called your dalvik cache. The system can then pre-load these dex files and allow the app to start quickly.
Dalvik cache is stored in two locations, at /data/dalvik-cache for user apps and at /cache/dalvik-cache for system apps. We unfortunately have a very small partition for /cache, only 100MB and this sometimes causes a side effect on first boot where it fills up to much with apps that only ever run on the first boot to setup the system and then other dex files cannot be written to the /cache partition which causes them to Force Close (FC). The trick in this situation, is to bear through the FC messages to get the system to the home screen, then reboot into recovery and Wipe Dalvik Cache from the Advanced sub-menu. This will delete all the dex files in both locations I mentioned above and will force the system to regenerate them upon reboot, and this time, those 1-time running apps don't start up and don't end up being optimized which allows the necessary dex files to be created for the apps that were FC'ing.
I have moved what I could from the system partition to the data partition to spare some extra space on /cache but this still sometimes happens, especially as the ROM's get slightly bigger every new major version.
First! Running it for a bit thismorning and everything seems great. 1 thing, no halo? Not a big deal with the ribbons but I did like that. Good work! Ill buy you a beer yet my friend!

This ROM is the kats meow. Love the features. After a full days use, no lock ups, lag or random reboots. Its early yet for battery stats but so far with on demand/deadline combo I'm at 62% remaining after 15 hours of average use. One thing of note: From home screen- clicking menu/settings is not functional. Settings from app drawer works as it should. This ROM is now my daily driver. Thanks for the continued support. May the S2 live on!

You can remove the init.d at /system/etc/init.d/91fixoverlays
It will be really speedy after that, but you may still run into some graphics glitching. Possibly enough to cause the kernel to panic and reboot. You can always replace the script at a later time if that becomes an issue.

Took the plunge, just installed this tonight. Hope everything goes well!!
so far ive been lucky (no glitches), but what a speed difference for me. thanks for the info.
Without hw overlays enabled this rom most certainly speeds up. Great job as always t_f.

In my hellkat rom, this is usually green lines that glitch across the screen. I tend to have problems with RR's with Disable Hardware Overlays unchecked.
Have you made any major changes to the kernel to help with hardware overlays?

No actually, so that goes to show that it might not be entirely related to the kernel which I originally thought the case. I'll have to diff cm with carbon to see what differences there are.

Seriously, some devs had given up on fixing project butter, but I always impressed with what titanic_fanatic brings to our device!!! I might switch to this rom if it works so well. I'll do builds with DIABLO or UBER kernel perhaps, Also dont forget the work that TF is doing to his kernel as well. our kernel diff's slightly from the hercules and skyrocket (which mine is based on), and he will likely have a kernel that is tweaked specifically to our device.
Great work @titanic_fanatic!!

No actually, so that goes to show that it might not be entirely related to the kernel which I originally thought the case. I'll have to diff cm with carbon to see what differences there are.

Yeah, I've been all stuck on the kernel as well. But I agree its starting to not appear as so. You're making some amazing advancements lately!!!

Without hw overlays enabled this rom most certainly speeds up. Great job as always t_f.

With your hw overlays disabled, do you get graphical glitching in the gallery? I get those lines rukusx7 was talking about.

Might have just found a really easy fix for the graphics glitching... FACE PALM Only time will tell though. Navigate to /system/lib/egl and edit egl.cfg. you will see this:
0 0 android
0 1 adreno200
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Change this to:
0 0 adreno200
0 1 adreno200
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This will force the device to always use adreno200 for graphics processing. I don't get those wavy lines in gallery anymore with hw overlays enabled, and I haven't had any screen flickering yet either. Not sure what this means for battery yet, but this might just be a step in the right direction
Please let me know how this works out for you guys.

I made the change this morning. Will report back later. Thanks TF!

Well after 10 hours with your little trick TF the results are positive. No glitches or weird lines through screen. Overlays were unchecked as well. The battery life seems unaffected by the changes in my view. The overlays do not stay unchecked through reboot. I suppose this will be changed if you find this fix to be effective. This is awesome. Thanks once again!

I just applied the egl.cfg fix to your Slim build, removed the init.d script and rebooted with HW overlays unchecked. Improvement was noticed, and no glitching so far.
To make your external sdcard usable by apps, use the terminal emulator and
$ su
$ chmod 777 /mnt/media_rw

Now you should be able to use your sdcard for whatever

read op and look at my video about how to use xnote app
I went to recovery mode, Philz touch 6, choose first factory wipe and then installed zip file. Rebooted and The rom was installed. I then found out That my device was not rooted anymore. Used check root app and iT verified That i was not rooted. Do you know what I am doing wrong. I did it twice and both times i lost my root.
