Samsung Galaxy S2

[Ghost02]

Tried CM10 today, really nice except I hate the contacts app, samsung's one is much better and CM doesn't read exFAT only FAT32. I'm finding it really hard to find an ICS ROM (stock android look) but with some of Sammy's apps. Any good ones out there? Most seem to be semi finished and then the developer switches over to jellybean and it's left half finished

Have you tried wanamlite ?

Any Samsung Android phone running Touchwiz has got that feature.

But touchwiz is sooo damn slow compared to Nova. And I like the scrolling launch icons at the bottom.

Do not confuse the Touchwizz launcher with the Touchwizz framework.

Guys, the best contacts and dailer app by far is exDailer, and its free. It has some very nice features including swipe left to message and right to phone like the S3. Check it out, its worth it.

+3 - Thanks for the headsup - very nice

I've been experiencing some annoyances with my phone the last few days, read on some thread on xda someone said something about apex being one of the culprits, so I installed nova prime again. Must say, it's pretty darn cool. Phone hasn't frozen, and the desktop doesn't disappear when you go onto and out of the app drawer really fast like with apex.

nope, just put on Alliance Rom though, besides from the notification bar which I find a bit ugly it's been really good so far. think I'm gonna stick with ICS until Sammy releases their official JB roms

I also thought I would give Alliance a chance, find it average looking. Had a problem with the home button and I had to reflash it. Also I miss my 200dpi

+1 on the 200DPI. Makes all the difference to me.

I am going to try and change the dpi tonight. I don't know how but I will try. Normal dpi is so big and cluncky

Do your research first. I prefer to use ROMs that have this functionality built in, because you could end up losing functionality if not done right.

I used BetterBatteryStats and I found the problems keeping my phone awake, but how do you I stop it now?

Depends what service/app is causing the wakelock. If its a android service its advised not too. If its an app you have downloaded and don't use often then you can use Titanium backup to freeze the app. Again it depends what it is.

Good feedback. Thx - I was considering Alliance once it had gone 4.1.
