It should work with debugging on. I haven't tried on the Mac next to me yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fireshot91:
Then it says MTP connected, but still nothing shows up on my computer.

I have no idea what I did before to get USB Transfer session or whatever it's called on, but it's not on anymore..

I know on Captivate, there was a setting in Applications that let you choose what to automatically connect to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wgarrido:
Isn't MTP for Keis?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fireshot91:
No idea, I never use Kies, just use a drag-drop method. I like that the best, but if Kies is necessary, I guess I'll go download it..

Dear designgears

Been with since my captivate and atrix and wanted to say thanks for all your time first off.

Request: That home button delay is killing the multi-task feel. Is there a way I can disable it, Ive seen some applicable changes in your original Galaxy SII rom, but I guess it didnt find its way into this one? I sincerely don't use or need the third party voice control..any other insight from readers would be appreciated!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fireshot91:
Huh..mine defaults to MTP...

And with USB Debugging, it says ....now it says USB Connected -____-...

Maybe I had to download the drivers for it, cuz I installed Kies, and then turned on USB Debugging, and then it worked.

So, if you're having hte same problem, go download/install Kies.

I have been running beta 3 for a few days now with no issue, however, this morning I awoke to find my phone no longer able to connect to AT&T data. I found my APN list blank with only the option to add. I did a nandroid restore to the day I installed beta 3 and my data came back. No more than a hour later though I lost those settings and my data again. Any thoughts or suggestions?

edit: another successful nandroid restore has me connected again...

I installed Beta 4 yesterday. I did the full charge delete battery stats, and let it drain, I lost 10% over 3 hours with it just sitting around with 3 minutes screen on time. With the stock rom I would lose less than 5%. Something definitely is draining the battery in Beta 4. I'm going to try a total wipe with Beta 4 installed and see if there is an improvement.

EDIT: Battery life seems to be improved a bit in normal usage since doing the wipe and restore user apps. I did notice that my phone kept waking up to access the GPS, I've tracked that down so far to Latitude, I have logged out of such and it seems to be helping.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aintwaven:
I have been running B-4 for over a week, and I find no difference in battery drain.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] torrin66:
Since Beta-4 came out 4 days ago, it is impressive that you have been running it for over a week.

Not sure if this is possible using the samsung rom, but if you could add an option to go to next song by holding volume up when the screen is off, that'd be awesome. This is one of my favorite features in cm7 because it keeps me from crashing in the car when i switch songs.

Having issues with mounting USB as well, works with kiss but not just normal browsing, doesn't appear as a mounted drive, also does some weird stuff on the phone like sometimes won't let you mount as usb drive, sometimes shows it staying mounted even after you disconnect, but never shows up as USB drive on computer unless in CWM.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Emil9727:
I had some issues coming back from CM7. My haptic feedback didn't work. I flashed a new kernel and it fixed it. I used the "doom" one from entropy. You can just re-flash the kernel and it should fix any issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] paleman27:
I went back to stock and unroot. I might be back, only when I understand why do I need a custom ROM. I mean the stock works perfectly fine...and it's very fast!

I remember right after buying the phone I was benchmarking over 3500... After all the flashing and tweaking I was lucky to get 2800.

I went back to stock, I factory reset and everything. Looks like all these moves take a toll on your hardware. I'm barelly pushing 3200.

Don't fry you phone!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tdamocles:
Not sure how it would 'fry' with this rom? I went from stock 3500-3600 to Cog 4100-4200. Bumped up to approximately 4600 with 1.6 OC.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] paleman27:
Oh no...I don't mean this particular ROM. I did try it and it seems to work fine. But, do I need it? Do you need it? If so for doing what?

My point is...I have read All posts and All threads for the ATT gs2 and seems like the hype is to flash your phone in everyway to Sunday. Maybe you'll see a dancing bear in one maybe another one Will have a little snake that rattles... I also see how people get in a mess only to see how everyone jumps with a magical solution.

I have no other asumption left: people think this is a toy. They Will flash it until it smokes...lol! And that my friends takes a toll on your hardware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cryptik!:
We get it, flashing is not for you, please move on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
You know, if that were the hype, there'd be a lot more "aggressive" ROMs than this.

It's stock debloated, with a couple of very nice features added (like the ability to reboot from the power menu).

The stock ROM is **** - there are a TON of services that run in the background and eat battery.

A ROM can't fry your phone. A kernel can, if it's faulty or used improperly. That's why I'm likely building a non-overclock variant for designgears if he asks.

As to your Quadrant scores - Quadrant is worthless, it doesn't mean a thing. The Stagefright hacks for the original Galaxy S series proved that beyond any shadow of a doubt.

Obviously flashing isn't for you, please stay out of this thread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] paleman27:
Dude, you sold me the idea of why should one get a custom Rom instead of the stock. You were clear on the examples and pointed the pros and cons. But your clossing killed you. You should be respectfull to others either if you don't like their opinion. A customer is willing to listen and buy but never to take crap from the seller.

You obviously don't know what you're doing or what you're talking about.

You're not a customer since no one is selling anything here.

But you're right on one thing, if you don't see the difference between stock and then you shouldn't flash in the first place.

If you like the stock ROM better, good for you, but then why did you come here and finally flashed it if it's not because you were missing something?

First paragraph its your opinion. I respect it.

I've been here over a year and flashed EVERY single ROM there is into my deceased Captivate. Anyway more to your statement, everytime you say something you sale yourself; the point is to be worth the most.

any help would be appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
You flash a CWM-enabled kernel in Odin, then flash this ROM with CWM.

Edit: I reread your post. You should have, when you connect to USB and the device is running, a notification that says "USB Connected" - tap that to allow your PC to see folders on your internal SDCard, and put this ROM onto the internal SD card.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rossi32s:

Since this is no wipe should I still fully charge the battery???

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xx_bluedev_xx:
As long as you have enough battery to get through the flash you should be fine, the only idea behind having a full battery is to make sure your battery doesn't die during the process cause you might be in a ****storm. You might wanna wipe coming from stock I know some people have had issues. You should be good to flash between beta's i.e., beta-1 to beta-2 to beta-3 and so on without a wipe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] torred:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] designgears:
hmm, mine are rather smooth... little less smooth then I would like, but yours sounds worse.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
On some devices the idea behind a full battery when flashing is to help with battery calibration.

However the more I look at our kernel sources, the more I'm convinced that just like the first-gen GalaxyS devices, our device has a fuel gauge chip that does not require calibration. Worst-case, you'll need to do a battery pull to reset the chip. (There's a software way to do it, I'll document it later once I've read through the fuelgauge driver source code some more..)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Haloruler64:
I'll try another factory reset and then flash it again... then switch to Unified.

Yeah, flashed again and same issue. All effects are very smooth except for popups and CRT off. Those are really buggy.

---------- Post added at 09:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 PM ----------

TRIPLE POST

And Uni works great in terms of said animations. Unfortunately it does not have the CRT off, and that's really why I rooted and flashed a ROM. Yeah... for that.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Discussion on general rooting techniques doesn't belong in a ROM thread.

I'm 90% certain this ROM is pre-rooted, so all you need to do is flash the ROM with CWM and you have root. The SuperOneClick stuff only pertains to those who are trying to root the stock ROM.

I seem to be having a very interesting battery problem. I've only been off the charger for a couple hours but it's at 87% with 20 min screen on time. Honestly that's not even that bad but BetterBatteryStats is showing something troubling.

It is showing under 'Other' a Screen On time of 20 min, and a 'Awake' time of.... 52 min! The wakelocks show nothing extraordinary and add up to around 10-15min. When looking under the gingerbread battery info graph, my awake and screen on time pretty much line up, although it does say 'Android OS' has a CPU time of 20 minutes.. Also using CPU Spy, 70% of the time has been spent in deep sleep.. while all the other other states only add up to 20 minutes- this goes with what the stock battery info is saying.

So is anyone else experiencing this with COG4? BBS says if there's a a large awake time with no wake lock, it's a kernel issue. I'm going to wait out the day and then screenshot/post up the BBS, battery info and CPU Spy so someone can take a look.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
That's a little odd. I'm still on manually debloated self-deodexed stock, and my typical deep sleep statistic when the phone is sitting overnight is 93-95%. In weaker signal it's usually closer to 93.

Did you use Spare Parts to change any animation speeds? Changing speeds disables it.

Did you flash any sort of themes?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
This is a good starting point. Also, if you've disabled window animations in the settings, it will also disable CRT. It needs to be either "some animations" or "all animations".
