So did you guys try setting up your exchange servers while on wifi instead of 3g as suggested by that i9100 thread?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PuffinNugz:
What kind of problems are you all having with exchange? I upgraded from 1.0.0 to 1.0.3, and my exchange still works just as it should.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] id10terrordfw:
With the SIM removed. It was one of the first things I tried. It isn't your ROM nor anyone else's. It is Samsung.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] id10terrordfw:
You upgraded, as in the account stayed intact and did not have to be readded. That is why yours works.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DJSLINKARD:
where can i place the zip file on my phone to where it wont get wiped by the factory reset? i dont have a physical micro sd card. also, if i wipe and install this can i restore my dictionary and calendars etc... from my backup root?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
If you use CWM to factory reset it doesn't wipe your internal SD card.

You can probably restore your dictionary and calendar data, but if you have any force closes or problems relating to the keyboard or calendar app you'll know why and you definitely shouldn't post here about it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
hmm.. good question.. I think i might have. Would a data wipe/dalvik wipe do the trick.. or the ole Factory reset and fresh install is in order? :(

I just flashed the new true connection add-on and had the same problem with the status bar force closing on boot. I also wiped davlik.

Any ideas?

no but it would be nice if the phone could auto format a large video to an mms. The iPhone does it, there has got to be a way we can look making it possible for us.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] desiromeo719:
Thanks gtg will go ahead and get that from shomans rom.

Also i have a modded battery icon that removed the crt animation after i installed it....if i flash the crt animation back...will it remove the modded battery icon?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] waldo98:
same here. I also had the JazzK battery mod installed before.

Woops, uploaded the wrong one. My bad. Will upload the correct one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
will flashing the new one, fix "my" problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Yep, and the new one is up in the first post. Make sure you are downloading the one labeled v3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kvl19:
What does the "Enable CRT screen off animation" do? What is CRT?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] garyd9:
What interface? You run it once, have it update your hosts, and you never have to look at it again... the hosts file will stay put through reboots. The only time you'd have to run it again would be if you did something that would overwrite /system/etc/hosts (such as flashing the 'full' version of a so-called ROM.)

take care

It enables the crt sleep animation which is similar to a TV shutting off. Youtube it if you still don't understand.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] waldo98:
updated one works perfectly!

thank you again for all of your hard work
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] garyd9:
Cathode Ray Tube. The CRT addon is an animation that makes your high-end digital device look like an ancient tube TV when the display turns off.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mickey4mice:
To further clarify my wifi battery issue, this is what I see in BetterBatteryStats:

Under "Kernel Wakelocks", I see "wlan_rx_wake" holding quite big chuck of usage. I know this is related to wifi but why is this preventing my phone from deep sleep?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ack154:
All this talk of the CRT thing got me to download/install it. Freaking awesome.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mickey4mice:
I know I don't have to look at it again once setup, but I usually hate to give app permission to update itself, prefer manual instead. Also, what does that TCPDump do instead of normal boot? Clicking on TCPDump brought up a blank screen nothing else. And it seems with revert function to temporarily disable ad blocking, you still need to reboot the phone for it to take effect?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Will PM you a fix to test.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AvengerBB:
For what it's worth, I have noticed a couple nights my battery drained like crazy and it seemed to be triggered by wifi.

Also, just an FYI that the SNS login still doesn't work with 2.2. I know there were others with the issue and it could very well not be ROM related. I haven't had the time to flash back to stock to check.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
I will Odin to 100% stock KK6 in a bit and see if it's working there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mickey4mice:
Thanks gtg.

I've turned off wireless location after I noticed networklocationservice was active in running process (being part of maps). Let's see if that reduce any wake time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kikex76:
Pfffff..... Man, I'm exhausted. I've had the GS2 since the day it came out. I had an iphone since the day the 3GS came out and always got the newer model the day they came out. Was quite disappointed it was still the same tiny screen, inability to make playlists, dumb sticky home button and not 4G on the 4S.

Decided to try Android for the first time. Boy what a headache. With a jailbroken iphone, it was so much easier to customize the phone to your heart needs with +3000 themes and thousands mod or apps without compromising the phone performance and battery life. Damn unstable androids are filled with damn bugs and battery issues, and customising the phone requires some sore of college degree. Damn. All big apps like skype or Facebook are know for battery killers. I guess I'll have to join the group of dumb asses by just doing email, text, and internet to avoid crap. I'm about to shut my freaking self damn it!!!!

So hard to find a freaking phone that would to everything you want, the way you want. Pissed off man!!!

I'm gonna try to finish my networking degree and will start programming asap, just to learn android code, since it is the only open source os we can tweak with.

I'll appreciate any suggestions on how to learn android code, and sorry if I upset people with this post. Just trying to express a little frustration here. Thanks for your understanding, and gtg, man!!!thank you so much for hard support with this Rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
perfect.. havent gotten around to flashing it yet.. but i will tonight.

thanks gtg

*update* .. worked like a charm! poyfect
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kikex76:
I tested my wife iphone 4 with speed test about 20 times and always got over 5 Mbps, every time. Did the same with the GS2, and can barely hit 3 Mbps. I thought i was gonna be able to go at least a little faster.Can somebody try to replicate with others friends or family's phones?

Read my "Known Battery Drainers" thread in General.

Specifically, read the part of the first post about collecting data and posting it using Shark for Root.

I won't have time to look at it for a few days, but the behavior you describe is a classic example of some app that drives data to your phone only when it is in wifi.

Are you running Skype?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mickey4mice:
Thanks Entropy. I don't have Skype installed nor do I use data intensive apps like Facebook. Other than auto sync gmail/contacts/calendar, I usually go to apps' settings to turn off any auto background updates. BBS also doesn't show specific app eating up battery, just wifi_rx at kernel level. Like I stated earlier, AOS usage goes crazy when wifi is on, well below 15% when wifi's off.

I just flashed gtg's test wifi fix, will see how that work out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
This is expected - Because most of the CPU time is spent waking up because of the incoming data and not the app actually processing the data, Android OS gets the blame - but the data is coming in because of the app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] garyd9:
You don't have to let it update itself. I think, if you want, you can install it, run it and have it update the hosts file, and then uninstall it. (never tried this myself, but I don't have adfree setup to update itself.)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kennonk:
When I hear complaints like this I generally recommend those users to get an iPhone 4S. If the stuff we do on this forum as users seems like it requires a college degree to you then I am sure you would be much better off with Apple products in your life. Sorry if this sounds sarcastic or condescending, that is not how it is meant. I really think you should buy an iPhone.

Good Luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mickey4mice:
So you think there's an app somewhere that's driving the data whenever wifi is on? Okay, I may have to use Shark to track it down.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kikex76:
Thanks a lot for your replay. I notice the forum states the modems for cm7 and miui roms. I'm on unnamed 2.1.1 installed with full wipe, i777UCKK6 modem. Can i flash these modems over unnamed 2.1.1?

I haven't try any other roms yet. Should I try a different rom altogether then?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mickey4mice:
gtg,

I've got another question for you, sorry I've been bombing you with Qs today!

I have an app called Voice Choice 2.0 installed, since I use google voice most of the time, this app lets me choose a list of numbers I'd rather call without GV. Now, the app installed fine on 2.1.1 and is still working fine on the phone running 2.2.0, but on the Market, it shows the app incompatible with S2 and the app doesn't show in installed apps list in the Market app either. The app developer says the Market may show "incompatible" if using ICS based rom, but yours is stock based, any idea what's in 2.2.0 may cause the break?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Yup. The symptoms you describe are a classic example of the device being woken up repeatedly by incoming wifi packets.

For example, anyone can reproduce this issue by running the following from a Linux box on the same network as the phone (Windows syntax is likely to be slightly different):

ping -i 5 <wifi ip address of phone>
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] polobreaka:
unnamed is a samsung based rom. so look in that section only.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
I have no idea why anyone is stating that a modem is CM7-specific.

A modem is a modem, it has NOTHING to do with the ROM. It's just a raw firmware image on a specific partition of the phone.

I tried flashing the remove ics transitions addon from 1.0.0 series but it put my phone ina bootloop. Is there an update on the 2.2.0 roms to remove ics transition addon? I find it goes in and out of app faster with the traditional transitions
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Yeah, apparently Google still hasn't approved the KK6 build fingerprint even though the update has actually been released, and for a while now. This will revert the fingerprint to KH7: http://www.multiupload.com/EQYED472HA

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mickey4mice:

Little update on this issue...

I flashed to completely stock KH7. SNS login didn't work. I then flashed to completely stock KK6. SNS login still didn't work.

So as I've been saying all along, the problem is with Samsung's crappy servers, NOT with this ROM. Hopefully people can start complaining to Samsung about this issue instead of complaining to me.

UnNamed v2.2.0 custom roms

gtg465x, The 2 camera issues I was having were non-issues.

Thanks for your suggestion and help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
FYI, zooming only works when recording in 720p or lower and is not supported when recording in 1080p. It has always been like that. You must have been recording in 720p or lower on v2.1.1 and in 1080p on v2.2.0. That would account for the difference in framerate as well because the Galaxy S II records 720p at 30 fps and 1080p at 24 fps by design.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
Video Settings

Thanks GTG, you were right about the 720/1080 settings and the

pinch zoom and vol+/- zoom while recording videos.

And you were also right about the fact that fps also drops a bit

if recording video in 1080p.

Perhaps the default resolution for UnNamed v2.1.1 was set to 720 and

the default for UnNamed v2.2.0 was set at 1080 ?

Either way, it's all good now.

Too bad we cannot delete our own posts here.

(must be a bug in this forum software) :)

Flash the modems in the stickied thread of the development forum (started by Peaster). They're listed as being for Samsung roms.

I had the same question when I saw this. There isn't anything different about the modem, but the method of flashing is different (updater script). Flashing one of the cm7 cwm files resulted in my device holding a kernel charging wakelock, despite not being on the charger. Making no other changes, flashing one of the Samsung labeled cwm files stopped the issue.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CyberpunkDad:
Download the modem zip you want to flash and throw it on your internal sdcard lime you do the unnamed ROM boot to cwm and flash that zip.

I do this and put back the original modem all the time. The new modem is terrible for my area. Like others say, modems vary from region to region.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nosferatu.:
Don't make it harder than it sounds dude. I'm like you I went from my one (and only) apple POS (3GS) and went to Android. I bought it because in June of 2009 nothing Android had at the time was remotely close to the 3GS. Two years later and it's a different story.

It was foreign for me for about a day or two until I sat down and learned the interface. It's really not all that bad. Then again I am a bit tech savvy but I certainly know NOTHING about Linux I can tell you that for a start and I still figured this thing out.

Best of luck man.

Hi all sorry I'm a complete noob at this and I've read as many pages of this forum as I could take but didn't find the answers I'm looking for.

I'm running stock rooted right now but the lack of axis locked scrolling and the horrible over scroll effect in the stock browser is driving me insane.

This is my first android phone ever (long time iphone user) so I'm nervous about flashing. I need my phone to just work so are there any known issues with the kernels or Rom itself? I need the Bluetooth functionality for making work calls with my headset in the car and read on a couple posts this may be an issue? Is the Rom itself as stable or nearly as stable as stock? Thanks guys greatly appreciated
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] smknutson:

Screen Timeout

I never knew it was so difficult to change the screen timeout settings.

You do know that there are 2 ways of doing it right?

Pulldown panel has screen timeout toggle and using

the settings>display>screen timeout.

Either way it takes 2 seconds to change it.

Also, you seem to be the only one who flashes all the

UnNamed rom updates who has this 10 minute timout.

Which means the updated roms are not at fault. (you are)! :)

Best ROM for GSII (AT&T)

I am also a long time iPhone user and the Samsung Galaxy SII is my first Android phone. I had since it came out and as soon as this ROM became available I installed it. I have never experienced any issue with core functionality of the phone or for that matter any other feature.

I have notice that when some have issues, like one of my friends, it usually turns out to be a defected phone. Use this ROM with confidence, but do report any issue that may creep-up.

V2.2.0 (I think) originally had Entropy's 1221 kernel. There's a reason as to why it was replaced with the 1208 kernel. Or you can give 1221 a try and then flash back to 1208. It has to do with the lockscreen not responding quickly after waking from deep sleep.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AtlanM87:

He is prob talking about the power savings widget toggle. If you use that widget and scroll to the next row, there is a screen timeout toggle to adjust the time.
