i figured it was a ROM issue because i havent had this issue with any other ROM. i'm going to try it one more time using the darkside wipe first and faux's kernel. wish me luck!

Kernel version 2.6.35.11+
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onearmedscissor:
Everything should work perfectly if you exactly follow the instructions I posted a few posts back, and I recommend you do the thorough wipe steps as well since you're getting force closes. Make sure not to skip any steps even if you didn't have to do it that way for other roms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onearmedscissor:
Not sure which one that is just from that info, but if you didn't flash any kernels separately it's probably romracer or faux, both of which should support bln afaik. You could try reinstalling bln or flashing a kennel maybe? but first I would just try wiping cache and dalvik cache 3x each in cwm and then rebooting and fixing permissions in ROM manager, then rebooting again. That fixes a lot of stuff usually.

The version number didn't change for the LA3 update and faux's .3 kernel has the same, so he'd need to use CPU Spy or Antutu to get further kernel info (including date). There are other ways to get the kernel info but this is what I'd do...

LTE data dropouts

Hey guys, I flashed the latest version..not speed and have been very happy with it, very stable etc. However when I try to switch my Network Mode from GSM/HSPA to GSM/HSPA/LTE the signal drops out all the time. If the phone times out, the data connection is dropped and doesn't come back until I switch back to GSM/HSPA.

I'm on Rogers btw.

Anyone know why this might be happening? I'm really enjoying this ROM and would like to keep it.

Update..fixed

My wife just got a new S II so I checked her APN settings...surprise mine were borked. Switched to hers and all's good... I'm sure everyone is very relieved now.

Will this ROM be updated soon?

It's my favorite and I'd LOVE to see it on UCLA3 and god know's what other mod's he'll put in!

Even if it stays as is, I'm not changing. This ROM is almost too good to be true! Fast, smooth, and with nice eye candy:)

Makes all my iOS friends jealous!

the force close i've been getting is for the launcher which i think is strange because it never did that when i used the ics launcher on another rom. i'll try it again with your instructions. hopefully all goes well this time...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Firedcylinder:
I've been having trouble with ics launcher too, and I'm using a stock rom atm. Seems to wanna fc at the slightest things sometimes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jnicks510:
the rom is fine, its just the launcher thats messing me up =/ its been my problem from the beginning. skyics without ics launcher is like watching a music video with no sound.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onearmedscissor:
I don't know about ics launcher on other roms but the one on sky ics seems to have a lot of force closes. I don't know if it's fixable, but maybe try downloading the newest version? I just use go launcher, and it looks pretty good with ics theme too.

Just use ROM toolbox or ad block app to overwrite hosts fine. Or you can even do it manually too
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jnicks510:
I tried uninstalling the launcher and installing it again from market but after reading the reviews there are a lot of people getting the same issue. Somebody fix it :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onearmedscissor:
I finally got around to doing the camera fix and it's working perfectly now, thanks!. I was just wondering, is the apk you posted from the stock camera or is it the sky ics one?

Edit: nevermind, just saw it's the coke one, thanks.

Hmm that's really weird then, I've never even seen anyone else post about sods with sky ics and faux kernel, and I've been following this thread and the faux kernel thread for a while now. Usually dag kernel is the only one for skyrocket where sod is a problem, or also if you under volt it could happen too, but I have no idea why it would happen in your case...

Ya version 10 just came out a few days ago, and its ucla3 based so if you use it with the ucla3 modem you can get a lot better data connection and speeds. It also has better battery life too. I've been using it with sky ics 7.4 speed stripped and silvers ucla3 modem and everything is working great: phone and data speeds are both faster, and getting awesome battery life.

So I would recommend flashing the newest faux kernel (get mainline version if you don't need an overclocked gpu, because it saves battery). It might fix your sod issue. Link is within the last 10 our 15 posts of the faux thread. it should work fine with the modem you already have too, but if you flash the ucla3 one I heard it's good to do a full wipe first, then flash modem, ROM,.and kernel, in that order and reboot in between each. I actually just flashed the modem over sky ics though and I haven't noticed any problems. You should flash the modem before the kernel though, if you decide to flash both. I used darkside wipe script and Samsung ultimate kernel cleaning script before flashing, too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MPurr:
I want to give a huge thanks to "onearmedscissor" for all the help he has been giving since the op has been gone. I didn't know about the new kernel and I can't wait to give it run. I've been running 7.4 stock for awhile now with no hang ups or anything. I absolutely feel it's the best rom out there for our skyrocket.

Now a peacefull note to the community... Lets not forget that there is a thanks button and give appreciation where it's deserved.

Hey guys - love the ROM and been pretty stable for the most part. Just a couple of q's:

- is it normal when using google navigate to loose battery charge even when on the car charger?

- anyone else having wifi connection issues with some access points? I even wasn't able to connect to an ATT hotspot due to a can't verify credentials error (IIRC). Some places connect fine and some just stick at ' waiting for IP address'.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MPurr:
I know some of those cheapie car chargers won't give you a hard charge and will allow interruptions. Also, before I had even rooted my phone I was in our local at&t corporate store and could not connect and use as a hot spot. The orange icon would appear but would fail to connect.

Wrong time zone values?

I'm not sure if this is ROM specific or android, so sorry about posting here as well as the general forum...

I've been having fits with google calendar sync changing outlook appointments by an hour - and noticed that central time on the android calendar shows 'Central time (GMT -5), but it should be (as windows reports (UTC-6). I assume GMT and UTC are the same and that's why my appointments are getting messed up when trying to sync between windows and android??

Could someone see if their phone shows Central time as -6 or -5?

Looks like the app didn't adjust for daylight savings time this past weekend. I noticed that when I go to google calendar on my notebook is shows (GMT -6.00) Central Time, but if I go to the settings in the Calendar app and select the "Lock Time Zone" option the CT zone option says "(GMT -5.00) Central Time." I guess I didnt notice because I didnt have the lock time zone option checked so all my stuff stayed at the correct time.

Boot into CWM Recovery. Wipe dalvik cache and wipe cache partition. Then select update zip from from sdcard. Browse to the location where you saved the 7.4 zip on your sdcard. Select it. When it's done, reboot, go to Rom Manager and select fix permissions, then reboot again.

UCLA3 modem for me works like no phone I've ever used, I get reception everywhere, phone is fast, no bugs, everything works, permissions are fine, CPU is overclocked and no heat whatsoever. Using the stripped version, just install what I need myself.

Please don;t change nothing, would e cool though to have the ICS, but it's work in progress.

What issues are you having that 2.3.5 is better for you?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
It drops data all the time, it's ridiculous
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] odeccacccp:
Must be ROM or network/location.

I am on Rogers so can;t speak for AT&T, but I have AT&T phone as well and Rogers network is much more advanced, but not perfect, I have black out places, but not like all the time it's more in the same spot.

Unfortunate that you have problems with it, however I have not seen anyone experience the same issues, I would appreciate you don't ask the developer to change something that works great for others, there plenty of 2.3.5 ROM available here, plus you can change to stock Modem with this ROM.

This is one of the better once out there, he maybe able to address the bug of data drop if one exists, but it is deferentially not because of the new Modem, I get two bars in elevator, P2 parking, at work where never even had one bar.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:

Data drops out, modem locks up when I enter a no service zone and doesn't realize I'm back in a service zone. Gotta reboot to get it back. Yesterday I was waiting for a text forever, rebooted and 6 texts came in along with a voicemail of a call I missed.

Don't get heated just because it works great for you, myself and others have expressed our problems with it and I am not alone here. Yeah it may work great for some but personally I dumped it.
