I started using this ROM since v6 and kept it up to date and hoping with each update it fixes my problem.

Whenever my phone drops to a 3g connection anything that uses data won't work until it goes back to a H+ connection. I've tried suggestions of using a different modem but that does no good. Seems other modems help me hold a H+ connection but still has the same problem when dropping to 3g.

I'm at my wits end here trying to fix it and could really use some suggestions. I really love this ROM. Task, you are doing very good job with it. I use my phone to much at work and need a stable data connection but i'm afraid i'm going to have to go back to one of these not so awesome ROMs to have that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jake:
For objectivity's sake i have found this claim to be false. Perhaps MiLocker is causing issues with your ROM. However, I am currently running SHOstock, and it does not have an issue whatsoever with it in any instance. Not even a milisecond worth of lag / no hiccups / jumpy stuff / no nothing (for me). Bear in mind i ran your ROM for a week or so, as well as another ROM which is an UCKK6 based ROM ... this ROM also had similar issues (lag, generally just buggy speaking of lockscreen).

ATM operating Milocker on SHOstock and i must say ~ feels like i'm using MIUI lockscreen every time i fk with it =)

Cheers!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
There is no false claim. So your accusations are almost uncalled for bro. This issues aren't with the app itself. The app works fine. So I'm confused as to what you are debating here. The issues are with me having to support anything that has to do with the app in question considering I'm not the developer of the app and do not want to clog up my thread with MiLocker questions. But cool story bro.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
Looks like you just might have to switch roms bro. I haven't seen the issue and haven't seen it from others yet. I haven't changed anything that would have to do with data or data connection from stock values. So I'm really unsure of what I can do for ya. Have you tried to set the apns? Here is a thread about it in the i9100 thread somewhere.

---------- Post added at 05:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 PM ----------

Task,

I don't mean to ask you in the wrong forrum, but since this came up, I'm going to pickup a galaxy tab 10.1 today. I have been using your SGS2 ROM and plan to use your tab ROM as well. I'm using this tab for a few weeks to see if I like it or have a use for it. If not, i'm going to return it. Is there an easy way to restore the 10.1 tab back to default, unroot, and so forth?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
yeah theres an easy way to bring it back to complete stock bro. its just an odin flash and a wipe to get it back to store ready return quality.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] arabcamel:
yo da man. i'll probably be reading through and posting on your tab forum tonight.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wonner:
Great ROM! I've been having one issue that's been happening on V7.1/V8/V9. Sometimes after trying to wake it up, the lockcreen is backwards. They when it's unlocked, all the text is backwards too! The letters are in the correct direction but they are written backwards, (exp. uoY evaH A noitacifitoN) Any one else?

Edit: I forgot, the only way to correct it ( as far as I can figure out) is to reboot or do a battery pull. After that, it's fine. It happens randomly...I noticed it happened when you try to wake it up on the lockscreen and the phone is inverted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tdamocles:
Do you have crt tv animations enabled in jkay settings? This setting caused backwArd screens for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SupremeOverlord777:
I noticed the exact same upside-down screen last night. Scared the hell outta me. I guess I'll just turn JKay off for now. Also, for me CPUSpy says that it can't find the states files, it's probably my problem not the ROM's, but I was wondering how I should fix it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wonner:
Yes, I do believe I have it enabled. I'll disable it and see if it happens. Thanks for the tip!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zenbob:
To potentially help narrow this down a bit, I have been using the CRT animation for turning the screen off, but not on, and I haven't seen the backwards text symptoms described. So, if it is tied to the CRT anims, it may be just to the "screen on" animation.

Task, on an unrelated note... I was doing some searching, but having a hard time figuring out just what to search for. I really like the ROM, and I think it adds some great touches without going overboard. Having said that, there are some little tweaks I'd like to make, and I was curious - if I make some very small changes before flashing the zip (removing APKs like the default email client, maybe some small tweaks to the init scripts), that shouldn't break anything as far as the flash goes, right? I spent about 3 hours this past weekend just exploring the zips and the scripts and such, and I didn't see anything that looked like it called out specific APKs for install, so I'm guessing there's some mechanism that installs all the APKs in some pre-determined or specified locations... is that a correct assumption? I hope that's not an extremely noobish question, but I'm more familiar with general linux concepts, and less familiar with Android and its specific mechanisms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
just in short because im on the move right now. you can try any of what you're talking about bro. just make a nandroid beforehand in case something goes wrong. the only thing about my rom is, is that i've played around with different things and felt as though i found the best combo of things to combine together.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jake:
Apologies if your feelings were hurt sir. The post was not intended to be "personal." Strictly informative (for those running your ROM + MiLocker lol). If i wanted to speak on a personal level, i would PM you (as i have in the past)

Ironically your reaction is worded quite defensively. Oh well. Perhaps going forward you could use information like this to better your work i.e. constructive criticism?? Idk, just seems logical. Take it or leave it. Either way, Suns comin up in the AM.

got ta keep on movin'

*dueces* love & hair grease
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
Not defensive other then I think you might have misinterpreted the post. The issues weren't with the app itself as I explained rather then the support issues that I didn't want to deal with. Maybe I misinterpreted your post. Who knows. Not really a big deal ya know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jake:

The backwards screen happens when the lockscreen enables over an app that rotates. If you rotate your phone locked, the screen flips. If you don't rotate, it doesn't flip
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kdwolf85:
Has anyone else experienced sw lock ups or random reboots? I had a couple of sw lock ups yesterday when I was running V8. Only thing to fix it was force a reboot by holding volume up and power. Upgraded to V9 today and just had a random reboot about an hour ago.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SupremeOverlord777:
Had a couple random reboots the other day, wiped and reflashed, now I'm fine. I tried replicating the backwards lockscreen, but I couldn't, so it's either fixed, or really hard to do, either one I'm fine with. Anyone using the new Daily Driver with this ROM? Any issues?

---------- Post added at 04:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:30 AM ----------

Woah, I just noticed another thing- the couple of times that I've tried to restore from a backup of this ROM, the md5 sums don't match. Other backups work. Basically, it just screwed me over after I was testing my theme for another ROM. I'm not sure if it could be a problem with this ROM, but has anyone else noticed it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
The only times I've had a backup not match like you just said is randomly when I flash cm7 roms bro. Otherwise they usually always work. What rom did you try to nandroid back from?

damn, yeah i did rename the backup... sounds like thats a no-no. It worked on other roms though. Coming from SHOstock

---------- Post added at 04:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:31 AM ----------

so, in place of renaming, can you put each backup in a separate folder, essentially giving you the same thing without renaming the backup itself?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
When you rename. Just make sure there are no spaces or characters and you should be fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] polobreaka:
i thought it was ok to rename your backups? i remember reading it somewhere. just dont put spaces.

edit: task beat me to it.

hey task, i just noticed something weird is happening with my home wifi. every version of your rom, im able to connect. with v9, my wifi icon stays gray. status says connected. i have verizon fios.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
That's nothing bad bro. It just means the Google connection isn't connected. Just open the market or something Google to connect it again. I'm thinking I might just mask it like a lot of other roms do so nobody gets worried. It doesn't mean that your wifi isn't connected or anything. Just Google server isn't.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SupremeOverlord777:
Ah, OK. Thanks for the help Task and polo
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wonner:
Thanks, I noticed it had something to do with the rotation while unlocking. I just wish there was an easier way to restore it back besides rebooting.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Warjcowski:
There is. Unlock like you would if the screen wasn't upside down... So the normal way. The app that is open will be reversed. Turn your phone sideways and it'll fix it.

Edit: I unlock based on where the buttons would be if the screen hadn't flipped so the att logo is at the top

Task - you think u could get a copy all function worked into the next release? That's about the only thing missing from this gem! V9 is running smooth as butter paired with Siyah 2.6.1. (Surely with built in kernel too)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
What do you mean a copy all function?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] JmPTaz09:
On my nexus s, CM7 added "copy all" to the text selection options (when you long press on text). I'm not sure if it's in the SGSII CM7 or not, but it probably is. We currently get like select word or select all. When sending texts, addresses, etc., I often find it very handy to have the copy all function. (just saves one click, as opposed to select all then copy). Small, but still a handy feature I've used for years.

I assume that if you figured it out for the SGS2, than you could do the same for the tab, but I could be wrong.

35% usage on android os and android system is at 15%

Im gonna try to calibrate the battery to see if that helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
Weird. i can go days in standby. and at least a full day with tons and tons of usage easily. the only way you will calibrate your battery with this phone is to fully charge and go through some cycles. battery calibration apps and all that are useless for our phone bro.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] used2hvatreo:
Heed the word of the task, batt calibration apps can cause some funky "no deep sleep" side affects if you aren't careful. I have found that our phone works awesome after a couple of 100% to 5% cycles
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
Yep. That is exactly the way to get the best results of battery life. Seems like after a flash the battery can drain pretty quick. But after a cycle or two its back to normal again.

I agree with that but there is something funky going on too. I can go two days without a recharge and the Android OS% is low and then the next day it drains fast and Android OS is way high.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bigblue95z:
The reason this was neccessary on the Cappy was due to the file system was changed on the non-stock roms to ext4, ditching the RFS crappy system. Going from ROM-ROM some funny stuff could happen if you didn't go back to stock. The file system is unchanged on the SGSII so this isn't neccessary. I had originally thought the same thing about having to go back to stock.
