Tmobile SG2

I assume you are running a Tmobile SG2 not a skyrocket.

Here is what finally worked for me:

1. install Sky ICS + latest updates per instructions in first post (lost of Cache & Data Wipes)

2. Boot into Sky ICS with Kernal Supplied by seanzscreams

(it helps to set the phone on a flat surface so you can deal with the rotation

3. Fix permissions using ROM Manager

4. Reboot. Allow ROM to "settle"

5. Reboot to Recovery

6. Install Hercules kernel 0.0.7r2

7. Wipe Dalvik

8. Enjoy your new Rom

Uggh, completely confused at this point on what is what. I have 6.75 and installed an update to 6.8. When i did that the only change that was listed was "favourites" changed to "favorites"

Now, there is a 6.8a & b and a 6.9 update. So do i have to do a full wipe install of 6.8a or b or can i just flash after cache and dalvik cache wipe and then do another wipe of those for the 6.9? I'm very confused with this.

Secondly, is this Bravia hack for real or not. So many mixed messages...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] seanzscreams:
Install the update on top of what ever your running

and yes bravia is 100% there

So the camera I have is the same as the one in 6.8b. When i picked the 6.75 I picked the one that had the better camera and no 1080p. Is that the same camera that is in 6.8b?

---------- Post added at 01:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 AM ----------

Nevermind, but correct me if i'm wrong. I should install the 6.9 update and then pick the camera i want and flash that?

Uh oh, I wiped dalvik and reg cache, flashed 6.9 update, then flashed camera hack 2, rebooted, and i'm on the boot ani for a good 8 mins now. I normally am patient but this is freakin me out a little and i don't think it's a boot loop. Also, the hardware buttons lit up which usually happens right before the lock screen comes up. Should I do a battery pull?

Rom Manager backups

I have updated to version 6.9 and i still cannot see my backups or backup from Rom Manager app however i can backup and restore from recovery, does anyone have any idea hoe to resolve this?

Ok, all good after a battery pull, booted up much quicker...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] y2whisper:
if you backup in recovery its saved on the external SD

Rom Manager only uses the internal memory

you can copy the folders over to internal memory if you wish.

CONTACTS

Sean really dig the ROM..Still running 6.6 it was

a cozy spot with terrific compatibility, FEATURES, range at all.

A Question.. Ever since my very first Sammy android I have been

very impressed with the feature rich phone book/contacts and settings available.

Furthermore since i got my captivate and subsequent upgrade to SR

I have looked for a program that would back up all the details and settings

that I have integrated within my Samsung contacts.

See until this week I have NEVER had my phone book worked out and linked completely to all my accounts, The reason being that A.. It is a tedious and time consuming task that I will need to start over from scratch each and every ROM that I flash.

Now that I have the darned thing as perfect as it will ever be I am reluctant to

upgrade and or flash new or updated ROM's.

Is there a backup program or cloud that anyone can recommend that does the best job at protecting and backing up those type details and RESTORE them consistently time and time again?

thanks XDAz

I am having a problem with SMS Order. Seems like my phones time (or just the messaging app?) is just slightly behind, so if I respond to a message right after I get one, it looks like I sent it first.

Any thoughts?

Same. My sms time stamp is correct but not incoming.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Schwaxdoc:
I too have this problem. Is there anyone that can execute extendedcommands through ROM Manager after 6.75 and beyond?

---------- Post added at 03:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:16 PM ----------

This is not correct. ROM Manager can use either which can be toggled in the settings. In any case, no backup on either can be initiated using ROM Manager now for me.

---------- Post added at 10:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 AM ----------

Downloaded it and was going to give it a try but it's an active adjustment, Not a big fan of that. I'd rather have a fix for the problem. It's definitely something wrong with the rom/sms app as I have not had this problem before with this phone/any rom.

Still loving the rom, just saying that's really not a great solution :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Schwaxdoc:
No patch. It is like ROM Manager can no longer pass on instructions to CWM after reboot in recovery. I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this. I started from scratch ODIN CWM flash and then to 6.9 and still the problem persists. Anyone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] guygreller:
That's incorrect statement - under setting you can change and "Use External Storage" - this is not the issue at all.

The issue i am having is that it doesn't matter where the location is, i cannot see it unless i am recovery mode

I have tried many of the roms in this section, and I always go back to my rooted stock set up after a few days for some reason.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garu12:
The sms order issue doesnt appear to be from the mms.apk. I pushed 2 other mms.apks (from diff roms) and the order is still incorrect. Besides that (which is a dealbreaker for now seeings as all I do is text) the rom is quite nice and smooth. Didn't keep it long enough to judge battery. I was also getting a strange lag on my notification pulldown with the faux kernel. Love the faux kernel but it does that on all roms I've tried so far which is really weird

I would recommend getting all your contacts synced through your Google account. It's what I did and every detail has been saved through flashes. If you have auto synv off, go to Accounts and sync in settings, click on your Gmail account, sync contacts, and it should save everything to your account. Can check online if you go to gmail, then at your inbox around compose, there should be a dropdown. Go to Contacts and everything should be there. ;)

When you flash a new rom, if you're connected to a network when it starts up, it'll do the account and contact sync automatically once you put your Gmail account in.

Figured out how to reproduce this Send button error and the out of order messages.

say i am texting 2 different people. Person A and Person B.

If i am i in a message window with Person A, while my keyboard is open, and person B sends me a message. I open the notification window by sliding my finger from the top of the screen to the bottom and click on the notification message from person B. In the new window that i just opened (with person B) the keyboard is open and my send button is gone... When i press the back button on bottom of phone my keyboard disappears and then to reopen it i click the text box. The send button is back, but when i type a message and send it, it will appear in the wrong order. it will show that i sent a message to person B before he sent me the message that i clicked on in the notification bar.

For the first time since I started with this ROM two months ago I feel that it is not working well.

I get tons of FC, i'm using faux kernel but it lags so much (I cannot play games almost at all anymore).

Recently my gmail wouldn't open until I completely wiped the data.
