[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Dathaeus:
The font edit there only changes the main fonts... it doesnt change the font on the actual Swype KB (which doesnt even work now anyways, more on that later in this post)

The devs do a great job of programming and supporting, but this is true in that no one quite lists the instructions in a concise yet clear way for people who have never rooted/rom'd before... it is understandable how they may "not care" about noobs, but then again, everyone has to do this for the first time at some point in their lives. In fact this was my first full root/rom ever. I am up and running perfectly, but it did take about 5 googles, 7 xda searches, and reading about 100 non-relevant posts to get where I am now. I have been working in IT and graphic/web design since 1997, and I would not say this was HARD at all, but definitely a bit annoying at first. Coming from someone who also tutors people in computers, sometimes 80 year olds whom you think would be better off not even using a PC, I these "instructions" remind me of those that are stuck in some retail furniture assembly package where they spend $99 on the parts and packaging and $0.05 on the manual.

When I get more than 5 hours of sleep in a night I am willing to help write out a thorough idiot-proof (if there is such a thing) instruction set or maybe even a video... I agree our devs should get more exposure to a wider audience than those that are only tech savvy, and maybe it will get them more $$$ and positive exposure.

If I am wrong about this, i.e., if you want to keep this only within the hi-tech community, I'll save myself the labor and not worry about it. Opinions are welcome.

Yes, just had this problem in the last day... it said to go to beta.swype.com and dl the new update after uninstalling the previous version. However, when I try this process, #1, I cannot uninstall, there is no listing for Swype in this built in version, and so when I try to install the updated Swype, it says it cannot install on a pre-installed Swype phone. So it seems we have reached an impasse on this part, and not being able to use Swype is giving me severe withdrawal symptoms!

MMS

can someone tell me why I am not able to send a pic message with text attached to it? I can send a pic if thats all it is but if I try to put a message with it it fails and says server error, this happens on both skyics and venom roms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tomtommy306:
Beginners are always welcome, but if you are flashing a phone of this caliber you need to research or have done this before.

Sounds like a network problem... are you getting good signal? --- by the way... the above post was for the poster above you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cablegooru:
yes i am getting good signal HSPA+ full bars, tried different locations as well as different apps, when flash back to stock works fine, not restoring any apps or data, clean install of roms both venom and skyics.

also have reset APN as well just to make sure
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tomtommy306:
I would try a different rom like quickwiz and see if it happens. Both roms you have tried are from Sean so maybe his mods mess with it. He's gone until April, so he can't help for now.

To get Swype beta working you have to completely uninstall Swype first, and delete any leftover files, then run the beta installer

uninstall swype and grab any of these http://jbthemes.com/djdarkknight/daswypethemes/

works like a charm

this is my swype
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] m4570d0n:
That happened to me once or twice. I just uninstalled it and then re-installed it from the swype installer (I'm using Swype beta). One of the times, I downloaded a font from ROM Toolbox thinking it would just download it, but it replaced the default system fonts with that font. The letters on the swype keyboard became completely illegible. At the time I couldnt figure out how to fix it because I couldnt find the name of the font anywhere. Only after I decided to just wipe and flash again, did I realize that it replaced the default fonts with the font I downloaded and changed the name of the new font's ttf files to the default font names. As far as I know, there aren't any themes for the new swype yet on any devices. Might have better luck making the request in the general Android subforum.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cowboyboats:
To explain how to resolve the ability to uninstall swype further. Using a file manager (I.e. root explorer) go to system/apparently and move or delete the swype.apk file. Then reboot and you should be able to install the beta installer

Swype just did this to me today. Is there any way to reinstall the version that sean included with this rom?Will it still work or is it just gonna keep saying it needs to be updated? I have no problem removing it and reinstalling another version but i REALLY want to keep the theme that sean has with the version preinstalled with this rom. Any suggestions?

Hey guys,

Really hopping to get few questions answered and a bit of help. So one of the reason to flash from ATT stock to this was the battery performance and now I dont see much improvement. So I`m looking at what I can do with this ROM and some kernels. I`m on stock SkyICE ROM 7.4 now, using juice defender ultimate and still get around 14 hours with what I consider light usage.

Here are my questions.

1. I would like to go to DA_G latest kernel, is it ok with this ROM ?

2. If I want to flash back to the kernel from this ROM, do I just use the ATT stock kernel linked in DA_G thread ?

3. Is anyone running DA_G kernel with this ROM and see much battery improvement?

Not related to the kernel

4. But is there anyway to remove the Silence icon from the top ? I`m on vibrate all the time and that icon is just annoying me....

5. The lock screen doesnt show up after screen goes out by it self, on ATT ROM I would get the lock screen with out pattern if I unlocked with in few seconds, here I dont see it at all.

Thanks in advance for the help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cablegooru:
Thanks that actually worked for me too .. amazing the simple things we dont think about....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Gromet:
OK, The Lock screen issue i'm having has something to do with JuiceDefender. When I Load JD it kills Sky-Ics's ability to control the lockscreen with the Notification bar toggle...

Anyone else running Sky-Ice ROM and running JD? Is there a setting in JD I need to toggle that I don't know about?

Thanks!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tomtommy306:
Any task killer/battery saver will cause problems in stability.... Android was meant to manage itself. Juice defender kills apps too aggressively. I would steer clear of it if I were you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cablegooru:
Gromet,

I currently have 7.4 running with JD ultimate in default settings and my toggle is working... If you tell me what settings you have maybe I can mimic them and try on my end
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] appdroid:
Here are my questions.

1. I would like to go to DA_G latest kernel, is it ok with this ROM ?

Yes dag kernel is good. Don't flash cm version though.

2. If I want to flash back to the kernel from this ROM, do I just use the ATT stock kernel linked in DA_G thread ?

Just get either romracer or faux123 s kernel and flash it in cwm.

3. Is anyone running DA_G kernel with this ROM and see much battery improvement?

I ran kernel few times but never monitered battery.

4. But is there anyway to remove the Silence icon from the top ? I`m on vibrate all the time and that icon is just annoying me....

I am currently running DaG kernel.

My favorite is actually .43pre2, but I can't rid the SOD problem with this kernel ... otherwise it's snappy and DS a lot, which means excellent battery life. With the phone idling it was only drawing 2-3% per hour, which is amazing considering all the accounts I have set to background sync.

I have moved to DaG .30 yesterday because of the SOD issue, and so far so good. I can let you know more in a day or 2.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluerap04:
Thanks a lot. This worked, although I had a little trouble.

First it wouldn't install. Then I used Root Explorer to place the apk in system/app and rebooted my phone. After restart, "force close" boxes popped up nonstop. I tried to install using the apk again and now it finally works. Using ICS stock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wali01x:
sean i hope you the best of the tour and im gonna miss you :( but ill keep in touch with you on gtalk. and dude i wanna know what people want for their transparency here ? id recommend 25% because i think 25% transparency does good and doesn't mess up some backgrounds. and also there seems to be some some problem with touchwiz not giving transparency as requested thats touchwiz for ya :D lol im using go launcher and i know go launcher can use high wallpaper fix that can work with transparency. ive not tested with adw launcher so if anyone has adw launcher can test that or i can test it out for you also it works for cclauncher (ics look alike launcher). as far as other launchers i don't know about others like zeam, and so forth but i can test it all out for you guys..anyways would love to hear response from you people..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Dathaeus:
Ok this was the answer I was waiting for... however life seems to be not that simple yet... I do that and then "Swype.apk cannot be deleted!" or when I try cut and paste, "Swype.apk cannot be moved!" and trying to "move" says it was successful but the file still remains in its original location.

I also tried switching to the default kb before doing this, still no luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tomtommy306:
I use adw ex so I can report back on that end... also.... 25% seems good.

wait so is it fine to flash speed stripped, and then 7.4 speed update? also, are battery and signal mods still flashable in speed stripped?

anyone have a link to a tutorial for editing out apps and stuff i don't need from a rom before flashing? thanks!

---------- Post added at 04:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:58 PM ----------

i uninstalled the regular swype beta with titanium, then installed one of the skinned versions straight from downloads folder, and restored data and everything is working perfectly without even restarting or fixing permissions. i got a problem like you have though when i first tried to install beta after getting rid of the preinstalled version. you have to make sure swype is entirely gone from your phone before you install the beta or the skinned one. i think there is a lib file in system or root or something too that needs to be deleted too. i found where all the files were by googling a tutorial for it, but i can't find it anymore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wali01x:
here you are fellaz again test it out please and also its 25% transparent and as ive stated its a problem with touchwiz so try using different launcher and for go launcher go to settings and enable high wallpaper something lol checkmark that on and you'll see transparency.. its based off've stock sean's rom right now 7.4 enjoy

Hey sean...i got a question...

So i found out that this phone kicks you off of wifi when phone is in idle for some time....from there...it will use 4G and basically destroy my unlimited(5gig) data and eventually get throttled by att.

Is there something i can do to keep this phone from booting me off of wifi when it's in idle?

Im about to get throttled again....but im on wifi 80% of the day and just found out why its sometimes using 4g and not wifi...im 10 days into my bill and used 5gigs already.

or Is there a chance its still logging my data as 4g even if it says wifi?

Frustrating......

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CZ Eddie:
I wasn't going to say anything. But I'm having some wifi problems also.

When I first noticed wifi was turned on but not connected, I checked out my wifi router and noticed the antenna was loose. I tightened it back up but have noticed wifi not being used a couple other times. I assumed my router was going bad.

Maybe there is something ROM or kernel related going on also though.

If I toggle wifi back on, it will sometimes take a few minutes to connect.

I'm gonna flash Da_G .3 kernel to see if that changes any behavior for wifi.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] c0ns0le:
you may be seeing "delays" due to a wifi scanning time. I don't recall the build.prop value ovf the top of my head, just guessing though if you look for "=150" in there you'll find what your looking for.

the wifi scanning delay is introduced to enhance battery life.

I've been using the 4.1 ROM since yesterday, no major issues for me so far. I did run low on battery in 9 hours, a bit unusual, but may have just been increased usage. I did notice I am not able to disable automatic connect to ATT hot spots. Uncheck, leave config, come back and it is still checked. Also noticed apps from unknown sources was not enabled by default, I thought that was a little odd.

Overall very smooth and reliable, thanks for all the work!

For some reason it appears my phone is not going in to deep sleep. Battery life has not been terrible though, so I wonder how accurate this information is (CPU Spy). Yesterday I got a little over 12 hours on a full charge after wiping battery stats with moderate usage (maybe 2-3 hours of calls).

Also, I posted about this earlier back in the thread but it may have been buried. Is there any chance you can add the CM7 style swipe to clear notifications? That is the one thing I really miss from my last phone. Thanks again for the great ROM!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CZ Eddie:
Okay I had the problem on Da_G kernel also. I was on wifi when I went to bed. Woke up and I'm on 4G. It's been about 30 minutes so far and I'm still on 4G even though wifi is turned on.

Wifi settings says my router is "disabled" or "not in range".

I rebooted and it connected to wifi within about three minutes. At full strength. In the same location where it previously said "not in range".
