[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LinuxNewb:
Go in to CWM and format the cache partition twice before trying to install.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LinuxNewb:
The battery life in 2.3.6 was awful. There were a few glitches but so far this build had been great.

If you're having problems flashing then you'll have to wipe cache a few times and make sure you copied the file over properly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mimart7:
Try deleting zip from your phone. Download the zip again from internet, and then try flashing it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LinuxNewb:
Also try opening ROM manager and installing the zip by the app. You'll have to rename the zip file so there aren't any spaces but that had worked well for me.

Also, some people

are getting fc's with superuser. Go in to the market and uninstall the latest update. It'll take you to an October build. Update the app again to the November build. You can then update to the latest su binary which was released not too long ago :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] trae4nato:
Sean,

I have a question.

I've been keeping up with your roms and updating my phone but when I went to RC5 2.3.5 and then did the nonwipes of RC5 my phone had too many errors and when I pressed the power button it didn't get me the extra options to go to recovery mode, etc basically like your 2.3.6 RC4.1. When I flashed RC5 my top notification bar was missing and kept getting other error message. Trust me, I follow your exact instructions and I'm no newbie at custom roms.

So, I flashed back to RC4.1 and did the nonwipe RC4.6b because it's doing just fine. My MAIN QUESTIONS is that are you gonna do updates to RC4.1-4.6b or not? Is this done? I'm just afraid to go back to RC5. I looked today and it seems as though your new RC5.3 fixed a lot of errors. Also what about battery life, it seems a lot worse and I'm flashing on a full battery and wiping battery stats as well.

I want to see what you say and I'll write a full article about your ROM because you are awesome. Get back at your convenience.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LinuxNewb:
@trae - I've been on this from the beginning and tried others. 2.3.6 (rc4.X) has serious battery drains because of trying to remove ciq. This has much better battery life because it's stripped in a much better way.

Some people were having problems flashing in the later rc5 builds but it's been noticed that formatting the partitions may have to be done multiple times.

Format your partitions manually in CWM and do the latest full wipe. Do the rc5 update file and you'll be a happy camper :)

*Edit* I was one of the few unlucky people with GPS issues and the solution is a full complete wipe so i'm downloading the newest builds now :) I'll post results.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] trae4nato:
Has he added the option to go into recovery mode from the power button...or do we have to settle for going into rom manager and doing it?

---------- Post added at 09:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------

But...wait RC5_b FULL WIPE has no Ciq it says. I thought removing Ciq was causing the battery drain issues right?

I'm assuming Sean has fixed this. Bottom line is to move to RC5 correct and install the updates?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] s0cal:
I am on the 2.3.5 RC5_b and cannot update through clockwork mod. I keep getting an error, installation aborted (0). I am going to try it again via Rom Manager.

Update: Still not working.. 5.31 errors.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mimart7:
Use RC5_B (full wipe) clear both caches three times, then install update. Worked well for in in cwm, just do both installs without exiting cwn, then dl rom manager, and fix permissions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LinuxNewb:
Extended power menu is included in the rc5.31 update files.

2.3.5 does NOT have ciq running. In 2.3.6 you have to start from scratch to reomve it and there were some issues that will require kernel tweaking or more stripping of ciq from more sys files.

I keep getting an error as well. I looked at the log in CWM and it looks like it aborts around /system/lib/egl.

AND it looks like I'm still having GPS issues. I did a full wipe and manually partitioned and had fresh installs.On RC5_B maps wouldn't work at all and when I tried the update (failed during install) it finds me in Nevada again.

Deleted A-GPS and downloaded again and it fixed it. Problem is if I reboot and launch Maps it reverts to Nevada... but if i exit and start Maps I'm back in Nm.

UPDATE So I just noticed that the .ko files in my /system/lib/modules are way off. On my phone they are less in size and have a mod date of August when the update file has a larger file and newer modification date.

Looks like when the update file is updating it stops copying files at some location. I'm still having GPS issues on reboots :(

On RC5.31HX; no way to disable camera sound?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LinuxNewb:
With Camera open, go to the Settings wrench icon (lower left) and scroll towards the very bottom. I just tested it and I could disable shutter sound.

I combined the camera revert files from OP for the camera because I was having install zip errors. I just tried an install from ROM Manager and was successful :)

GPS is now working as well. I formatted my partitions 3 times (mainly hit the /system folder) and did a fresh install and now things are working very well :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] trae4nato:
Thanks, I did exactly what you said and the rom is just fine, gps, fine, but still having extreme battery drain issues. I flash my roms on full battery too. Also I recalibrated the battery as well when it charged up to 100%

I rarely get better battery life with these roms over the years but it's something I'm accustom to. Everyone's experience is different I guess. Any tips?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LinuxNewb:
Give it a day or two until you've fully used it and see about battery life. I had over 1 day of usage on my phone before having to charge, which is rare on other ROMs.

P.S Don't forget to wipe battery stats after fully charging it and do NOT plug it back in until you're at like 2% or possibly even less.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] justbenice:
i too having extreme battery drain issues even i recalibrated battery.

BTW, what is the mobile network singal icon mean ? Some time my singal icon show gray and sometime it show blue .

Guys I'm confused. Wiped and installed 5b. Went thru fine. Then installed 5.31thru rom manager. It aborts install and gives me error. With first install (5b) there is only regular launcher. Even though 5.31 Aborts during install, when I reboot I get option for ICS launcher. Also maps think I am in Nevada lol. There is no option to uninstall it either under manage applications.

[/COLOR]Okay I looked through most of the thread and I've been on this ROM like many of you for a while since the beginning. I don't consider myself an amateur because I've been doing this for a while but I ran into problems. Someone helped me and I have this latest version up and running just fine.

These instructions are very long because it's assuming you don't know what you're doing but I've created step by step instructions and if you follow them you should be golden and Sky Ice Cream Sandwich 5_B with the 5.3 update should be working fine. Yes I have battery drain issues but they take time to subside apparently with this rom like many in the past.

Instructions HERE

When you guys installed version 5.3 what version of android are you running?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluerap04:
5_b is 2.3.5

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 PM ----------

Woah wait a minute, you realize he's talking about the 5.3 update, right? With the non-wipe updates, you only wipe the delvik cache and the cache partition, as I understand. If I'm wrong someone please correct me.

---------- Post added at 09:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:47 PM ----------

To anyone having problems flashing the 5.3 update, I was having these problems too. The first time I managed to get it to work, I rebooted straight into recovery (by holding the volume buttons after I hit "reboot phone" in cwm) every time it aborted, and tried to flash again. After 3 reboots, it flashed successfully.

After that I decided to install 5_b which led to me having to reinstall 5.3. This time around, it wouldn't install no matter how many restarts. This is what ended up working and I recommend it to anybody. In recovery:

1) wipe cache partition three straight times

2) wipe delvik cache (under "advanced") three times

3) install 5.3
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mimart7:
For the non wipe updates, yes you only clear dalvik, and cache partition, no factory reset. You'll be stuck in semi brick mode, and have to get into download mode, and flash with odin, get root, etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluerap04:
Then LinuxNewb almost got that dude into a semi brick :p:rolleyes:

Thankfully that didn't happen. I have a jig coming this week, I know it does squat for the counter, but I will be able to confirm if it works with SR, or not. The general belief is that it will. I think it is handy to have just in case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LinuxNewb:
Semi brick mode? Lol that's pretty funny. For one, always do nandroid backup always because you can easily get into recovery with vol up/down +pwr.

Second, I was referring to the GPS issue and other problems needed to do in a complete system format. In a previous version angryGPS jacked up some stuff and even after 1 full wipe I was still having problems. Hence the need to start fresh.

I've been flashing all day and if you follow directions then nothing I say will do a "semi-brick" lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] duckfart:
Wow, I just noticed I cant mount my Sdcard.

When I plug in the USB it always ask to charge or mount now it's not doing anything other than charging. once in a while it will bring up the car mode.

Any one else?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluerap04:
Ah, you weren't very clear that you were referring to flashing the full wipe ROM. Just trying to prevent some unnecessary problems due to lack of clarity. Plus, I don't know if any of that would cause any brick, since I've never formatted /system before flashing a non-wipe.

Also, those of us that are unable to mount the sdcard in CWM are unable to use nandroid (like me).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LinuxNewb:
All it will require is a re-install of the first rc5_b zip. It pretty much dumps the proper /system if things go wrong and we've noticed a need to format multiple times. I re-packed the rc5.31hx update and didn't get the install error. Going to test a few new scripts as well :)

Trust me, ever since I got the GPS glitch I've been playing around with all different configurations.

Since I don't have to work until January 3rd i'm going to fix some theme stuff and learn more about kernel development.

p.s in ROM Manager you can download the Samsung galaxy s 2 file and go to restore/backup and say back up to internal sdcard and it'll work. Cwm still has issues but you can indeed backup to emmc (or internal space) :)
