MidnightROM:GS2 JB 1.1.2 7/26/2013 Overclocking and general awesomeness!!!

Ok im not gonna start this with a complaint so heres a compliment to begin with...

This is by far the best rom out there for the s2 and have been using it since you launched it.

However, my messaging crashes daily and requires a reboot. Everything else works fine.

Using Loader8 and a custom boot loader (marvel flip-book) with no other mods. Been modding and phreaking for about 8 years now so im pretty sure its nothing i did lol. If you could look into it id appreciate it or if anyone else is having this issue id like to know.

Does the Wireless tether for Root users have to be setup a certain way? Hasn't worked for me since it was included in the ROM

This is what I use:

Settings that work for Samsung Galaxy SII:

Device-Profile: Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)
Setup-Method: Netd-Ndc (master)
Send Netd Max Client Cmd: Yes
WiFi-driver reload 2: Yes
Keep Alive - Connection Checking: Yes
Routing fix: Yes
Disable Wake-Lock: Yes

How does the GS2 compare against the Evo V 4G when both are running your MidnightRom. I ask because I am using the EVO V 4G MidnigtRomS 1.2.2 and was toying with the idea of getting the S2 but I am very fond if your rom to the point it has become mandatory for future phone purchases.

The SGS2 is definately better than the evo I'm telling you from experience I own both :car:

thx for the info but how is it better would you say responsiveness, games or just over all quality? I know the camera on the S2 is way better. Also are you running midnightRom on both? I am just curious because of how much better of phone the Evo V became after I flashed all the fixes for it and installed MidnightRomS.

Everything! :D

Games, Response, and quality

But if you are coming from the evo, I would go with the SG3 it would be the best upgrade!

PLUS, he has a GS3 Rom =)

I cannot, for my life, figure out how to get 3g working or even to turn on at all with this! 4g works perfect and connects perfect as well as wifi. but when theres no 4g then it has no data at all. I cant find where to turn 3g on if 4g isnt connected. Its extremely frustarting as running other ROMS the 3g works just fine and has a toggle. Maybe i jist cant fimd the toggle? Thank you so much in advance!

Your best bet is to follow the instructions for installing the ROM, especially the Odin Jellybearn restore. Failure to do this will leave you with an incorrect modem, which would leave you unable to connect to 3G and/or 4G.

If you've already done this, go through it all again, making sure you wipe System, Data, Cache as required.

If that doesn't work, burn your phone at the stake. It's possessed.
