My new setup. Tried to make some nice labeled pictures for you guys. Didn't want my first post on xda to be half hearted. It's my lock screen and then my screens from left to right, my home being in the middle.

It's done using Nova Launcher Prime, Widget Locker (slider came from xda widget locker theme thread which I then changed a bit), lots of custom UCCW skins, and Compass light, regular and bold fonts.

I don't see why not. When I download a row or theme, it downloads to the internal sd in the download folder and I flash from there
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Reverence12389:
I would be careful with that, because from what I've read, they always recommend flashing from the sdcard because if the internal memory gets erased and something goes wrong, you won't have the zip file to flash the rom from.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PizzaAmerican23:
seriously considering getting this phone, but the one thing that makes me second guess is reading peoples accounts with CM.

The captivate is an awesome phone, with great hardware, but unfortunately for me, it sucks when using any other rom but a captivate based build. Im running CM7 nightly now, and my battery is atrocious. I love CM, but it just sucks i cant really count on it as an all around rom.

Im really hoping this isnt the case with the SGS2. From what i hear apparently its a proprietary driver issue, and the captivate will always have problems with non captivate roms.

I honestly prefer the SGS2 over the newly released prime, besides the fact that the nexus is a blessed phone, and will receive updates first, and im sure wont have any problems running cyanogenmod/miui.

This is probably my number one consideration when buying a phone, so any information on this will be appreciated. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gr8hairy1:
Could you be more specific as to the 'suck' you fear? People have been able to get decent battery life with cm7.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PizzaAmerican23:
even if battery life were the only bug, that would be enough to turn me off. Im getting a max of maybe 12-15 hours max with little to no use (at least 5% drain every hour) Compared to 1% drain an hour and 36-48 hours when using a captivate based rom.

The other bugs are less noticable now, but still do exist. (force closes, apps behaving weirdly in CM vs kh3)

I want to think that the sgs2 will be different, but ive seen some similar posts if your CM thread located in this devices forum.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gr8hairy1:
I see what you mean. Currently they are working getting on it. Though there's alot of talk that they're holding back some getting ready for ICS with cm9.

I had a captivate too and didn't care much for cm on it. Though cm7 has been amazing on my wife's atrix.

I think it will get there with this phone. Especially with the compatibility it shares with the i9100. Undoubtedly it will get to working great on that phone with as many people that have them internationally. And it only takes a few changes for developers to make their i9100 rom compatible with our i777's.

It's still very very early on in development for this phone and already alot has been done.

Is there something specific you want cm7 for? As stock roms on this phone are pretty awesome.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PizzaAmerican23:
got my fingers crossed. Many of those reasons are similar to the captivates though.

The captivate is the same as the I9000, and roms were ported, but it just never got there. I was under the impression that it was because they could never fully get it because of the proprietary driver.

I was originally gonna get a 4s to sell and buy a nexus prime with it, but possibly getting a sgs2 on contract for 0 is too good to pass up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
I ran CM7 for a few days on my GS II, and had no stability issues, no bugs, and felt like I got on par battery life. I've never been one to obsess over battery life. After having a Captivate I have a charger at work and in the car. The battery life in general on the i777 is better than the captivate, but I can't really say if I felt CM7 was any better or worse than stock based.

I run MIUI now, have been for a few weeks. Its also stable and fast and smooth enough to be a daily driver with no issues. Again I feel battery is on par, but I wouldn't notice the difference between 1% idle drain and 3% idle drain. My phone is rarely idle. I could easily get a full day out of my i777 on MIUI, something I could never do on my captivate with the same use. I still charge my phone after lunch for a few hours. That just means I never see lower than 50%.

Your milage may vary. But overall the non-stock based ROMs on the i777 are more stable, and easier to install. No messing with bootloaders or other things. You can easily flash back and forth through CWM. Unlike the captivate the OPs for CM7 and MIUI aren't full of bugs, and incompatibilities with harder than stock ROMs installation instructions.

Like you said the captivate was based on i9000, and the i777 based on i9100. The i9100 is far more popular with greater support than the i9000. Plus, the i777 is more like the i9100 than the captivate was like the i9000. Half the cyanogen team was given i9100s months ago. I think the i9100 will be the first non nexus device with useable ICS. Its coming along fairly well and really fast already. But, its probably a few weeks out. Once it hits the i9100 it will be extremely easy to put on the i777. You can easily (like insanely easy) port any i9100 ROM yourself to the i777, something you couldn't do with the captivate.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] userone912:
Yeah i know there's a lot of thread here in xda-developer asking bout this issue...but i can't found one with HTC Desire HD, so it's ok, right?

I have an HTC Desire HD, i use capdase case on it to prevent scrath, but eventually it's makes it hardly to lock GPS signal using internal GPS.

I have a Hollux M-1000 Bluetooth GPS Receiver, which i ussually use with my Archos 70IT. For navigation i use NDrive. In my Archos, i use NDrive for navigation via Bluetooth GPS Tether to my Hollux and it's work like a charm, NDrive can run as it's an internal GPS. Archos 70IT run Froyo 2.2 and has a Built-In bluetooth GPS tether in it's bluetooth configuration, so there no need a third party application involved. On the other hand, my HTC Desire HD run on Gingerbread 2.3.5, and it has no built in bluetooth GPS tether configuration, so i install an application called Bluetooth GPS Provider. With it i can connect my DHD to Hollux M-1000 and got GPS signal ( Location Mock enabled ). I can run Google Maps with internal GPS off, but when i try to use the same NDrive i installed in my Archos, it's failed, it's says GPS is Off and i can use it for navigating. Is this an application permission issue or an OS issues?

Just wondering if someone somehow can porting those Bluetooth GPS Tether available in Froyo to Gingerbread, it would be very very nice..:D

Sorry my poor english
