    VillainROM 3.0 BETA.

    Use VillainROM 2.5 if you are not wanting the "bleeding edge" version :)

    However saying that, there are no known bugs (at least not to me) yet, so you should be fine to use this. And you can flash over Villainrom 2.5 (nandroid first!).

    Usual VR features included, and Ninphetamine 2.0.5 kernel as it is better on battery than any of the newer ones.

    There is also a KI3 modem availaible on XDA to upgrade your radio if you wish.

    Lenny,

    Is there a change log (err, ok, perhaps I mean feature list, what with Samsung's published change logs :) ) to differentiate from 2.5?

    Edit: I noticed that the forum recorded this as being posted from "Mobile Device"?
  4. Lenny Administrator

    Samsung do not provide change logs so nothing we can really give you.

    However things I have personally noticed:

    No more overscroll, but they have a glow rather than bounce (glow is blue).

    wifi

    Hi, great rom like always. Thanks to the whole VR team! Only one little problem with wifi after flashing VR3.0. First i flashed it over 2.5 and everything works fine except wifi. I lose the signal all the time. Then i tried it with a full wipe and flashed 3.0 again, but it's the same. I tried different modems but it doesn't help. I read in other forums that other people have the same problem.
    Any suggestions?

    Wifi and data here too


    +1 Here. Experiancing wifi and Data random loss (when Wifi is switched off). They down and up few secondes after, have tried many modems (even tryed flashing everything again from scratch including Nympo 2.0.5)

    I noticed in BetterBatteryStats that the first wakelock is :

    DhcpHandler
    Android System

    The second one is :
    *wifi*
    Android System

    I also used the Battery monitor located in the task manager, I've attached the 2 files I got.

    Hope it'll helps to sort this out :)

    Just posted this on XDA but thought I'd post here as well.

    For those that want the tweak that stops the Home button from waking the phone "ante0" on the VillainROM forums made it for me for 2.5. Just flashed it on 3.0.0 and it works perfectly (from what I can see all it does is change a text file which says which buttons wake the phone, so it shouldn't be downgrading to older files or anything).

    Can be found here :).

    The random data loss was the reason I finally decided to flash a custom rom. A few weeks ago I flashed a 2.3.4 room from samfirmware including a new modem. Ever since I flashed that 2.3.4 I've had problems.
    Before I flashed 3.0 I flashed the new KI3 modem. That one works great. After 12 hours of no problems I also flashed 3.0.
    So for me the solution was to flash a new modem.

    And after more than 2 days on 2.3.5 I can only say "WoW!!"

    Hi,

    I have i9100 which was running litening 6.1.

    I followed instructions did reset factory/clear cache etc.
    Installed Villainrom 3.0. rerooted using CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG3-v4.1-CWM4.tar.
    Did a restore from Titanium backup.

    Now the phone keeps starting every 2-3 mins into the andorid animation ie one with android with red eyes.

    Should I start from scratch ?
    Did I do something wrong ?

    help woudl be appreciated otehrwise I'm gojng to have to abandon and do a CWM back to Liteging 6.1 ?
    Thanks for any advise
  10. Lenny Administrator

    Try to wipe and flash it again, sounds like you restored something bad.
  11. sohotha New Member

    ok, tried a re-flash.

    Steps :
    - Set to factory/clear cache
    - Boot to recovery and apply Villianrom 3 ( using zip file )
    - Using the TAR file ( extracted from the zip ) apply root using odin 1.8.3
    - Set USB debug/install foreign apps in settings
    - Install titanium backup
    - Restore using titanium back ( missing apps + all data )
    - Reboot

    All seems ok - then it starts the go in circular re-start on the android-red eys animation !

    Very odd !

    Now restoring my Litning rom from backup.

    Will acrry out full titanium backup and try again.

    If you have any opinions/advise - please let me know.

    Thanks

    Hello ^^"

    I've found some force closed in VillainRom 3.0

    I've installed VillainRom 3.0 with all 3.0's tweaks.

    Everything is working......

    Today I've found some problem....

    Force Close happen when I change video resolution in Camera (Video Recording Mode)

    Please check it ^^"


    Thank You

    @sohota

    Did you also wipe the Dalvik-cache?

    I also switched from Litening 6.1 to VillainRom 3.0 and had no problems at all.
    I made all the steps you did, but additionally I wiped the dalvik.
    Didn't have to reroot. Only installed Superuser app from the market and gave SU rights to Titanium.

    Hope this helps.

    Just tried the same as Alice explained, also get a crash in camera.
    Very easy to repro
    Open camera, set to video, click top left icon and change to "Limit for MMS". It crashes a few seconds later.
    The same thing happens in camera (not video) mode when trying to switch to the front camera.

    I did a full wipe when installing.
    Edit: I have the camera bettery tweak installed, and can't seem to uninstall to try without it.

    I will look at the camera tweak. Sounds like a bug in the tweak
  16. sohotha New Member

    Hi,

    Going to give it another go this morning.
    I don't find any option to wipe "dalvik" ?

    -- Update

    Tried again and same issue. Goes into a loop and the back of the phone starts to get hot.

    There is some app that Itanium is restoring with which Villainrom is not happy !
    With 400+ apps - do I go through one at a time to see which is causing the problem or is some
    sort of trace log available ?

    Thanks

    turn off device, hold volume up and home button down and press power until samsung logo shows
    release power button
    release other buttons when in CWM recovery
    use volume button to navigate to advanced and home to select
    find wipe dalvik cache there


    you could also try not restoring your application data in titanium backup for all apps, just reinstall missing apps, then individually select apps to restore data for where you absolutely can't live without the data
  18. sohotha New Member

    ok

    Will give it another go with your suggestions.
    Have to wait for phone to recharge.
    Thks

    - update

    - Here we are another try and another failure.
    - Phone definately running hotter on the back
    - goes into loop

    Giving up and going back to Litening for now.

    Perhps I'll do an upggrade to 2.3.5 !!!

    Cheerio Villainrom for now.

    Do not restore system apps/data.
  20. sohotha New Member

    Nice idea but then I lose all my home screens setup .. don't fancy going all through that having done it for Litening about a month ago.

    Could try backup root instead - I'll think about that !

    But thanks
