Anyone working on a blue theme for this rom/JKay Settings? I'm wanting to use a lot of the theme from Omega Blue Rom.

I just started to research how to do it myself but if someone already has done it (just blue in general, doesn't have to be from omega) I'd be interested in checking it out.

This is the installation log

May be the reason why I'm having these issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] texaswickedtoys:
Don't know if anyone else has this issue but my Bluetooth will pair up but not connect tried fixing permissions and wiping dalvik and no luck
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rklatte:
I had the same error messages. Reran the installer but still had the same message. The first time I booted the Google login never went through so I rebooted the phone. Then I flashed the UCLP5 modem I had previously downloaded and rebooted, figured from the error message and the lack of connectivity that maybe the modem didn't install correctly.

Besides that, though, everything seems fine. One thing that is bothering me is how big the status bar icons and text are. It's personal preference. Does anyone know if jkay's framework and app can change this?

Anyway, this ROM is fantastic! I don't remember even the GB version being this smooth. Awesome work Shishir!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dahlem:
What lockscreen are you using here I love it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shishir95:
Thank you for the little bits of positive feedback! This ROM is definitely flawed. Since JKay is out, I was thinking about just trashing this version since SO many people are having various bugs with it -- and I don't know if it's just ICS being stupid or what?

ROM doesn't include a modem by default, so that's why you're getting the assert failed errors at the end, I need to remove that code lol. The part of the beginning that's about failing to mount a partition -- I need to look into that. Thank you for showing me this!

Big icons = work of samsung. -_- I'm working on it.

Stock samsung lockscreen with custom layout and theming.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] grifforama:
Getting the occasional short freeze on the lock screen.

But, overall, I am loving, absolutely loving, how smooth this is compared to other ROMs.

Great job....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] vette95:
Were you able to access Google Play after flashing the modem? I couldn't find UCLP5 but found UPLD4.

Trying it right now. BRB.

Yep, that did it... And no more lags so far...

Will abuse it for a day or so and come back with feedback. Great work...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] willbs94:
LPG?????? I like the rom and all but with issues. Just keep it simple and smooth.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] joshh20:
Yes! I literally had the exact same problem during the install
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rklatte:
Yeah I may have mistyped the modem. I actually changed to UPLD3 and changed the APN settings. My bars just seemed lower than what I had I MIUI v4.

another random "issue", I flashed the jkay mod, worked fine but since it looks like his Google play account is offline I can't purchase his settings app. After flashing the mod, the option to change font size I Display is gone. So I flashed the restore zip from jkay and everything reverted correctly, EXCEPT the option to change font size is still gone. bummer...

(I'll edit with some links)

Shishir, what do you mean by JKay is out. Are you referring to the JKay mod that is available on the i9100 forum? :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bervikje:
Wish this ROM was more user friendly.:(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] simplicityy:
That's a shame. I read the OP and the description looked so tempting. Then I read through some pages and read the various bug reports from people, and even Shishir saying he might trash it... D:

I'm quite happy with Gingerbread, but I'm still wanting to try out a good, stable, yet... sexy ICS ROM. Hopefully ShiShir will make a new, better one or miraculously fix all these reported bugs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jazzboyrules:
This ROM is very stable for me, haven't uncovered a bug yet.

The changes I've made from default configuration of this ROM:

- JKay's XWLPD mod

- CherryPicker's latest Sammy kernel (better battery life)

Sent from myphone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rklatte:
I think I may have sounded too negative in my earlier posts - really, this ROM is awesome. There's probably a couple little things to iron out but it's fine as a daily driver. The new TouchWiz launcher is the best one I've used on ICS yet (fewer options compared to others but so smooth:D).

Can't comment on battery life yet as I've only gone through a single charge cycle. But it seems pretty good.

Shishir - I hope you stick with the ROM. It's the best ICS one I've used :cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Tophaholic:
+1

After using this ROM for the last few days I have to say this is the smoothest ICS ROM I have used so far and I have tried a bunch of Sammy as well as AOSP/AOKP ROMs. As I mentioned in one of my earlier posts the smoothness has increased significantly over what it was on day 1.

I have been running the Siyah kernel the last 2 days and it has been rock stable. No random slowdowns as seen on the NEAK kernel (so that was a kernel issue afterall). Also installed JKay mod which gives it all the main features available in other ROMs.

Shishir - Please continue development on this ROM. I am really looking forward towards using this ROM for a long time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MattMJB0188:
I'm probably going to get blasted for this but I'll ask anyway. Coming from Task's AOKP ICS 4.0.4 Rom all I'd have to do is a wipe/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe delvik right? Am I missing something or would I be good to go?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jazzboyrules:
That would be it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MattMJB0188:
Thanks. I always do that when switching roms which I why I'm so use to it. But apparently many people don't?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shishir95:
Thanks for the support guys :)

I agree with everyone, this ROM definitely has bugs but they're negligible. I never meant that I was trashing this ROM as a whole -- just the base, and update the entire system to XWLPG. Apparently it fixes some bugs. I'll play around with that for a few weeks and maybe I'll have something for you guys come Sunday ;) It'll be the first update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MattMJB0188:
Shishir, your rom looks awesome and I can't wait to flash to it. Probably will after your update. Just skimmed your thread here and was curious on a couple things...

Coming from AOKP ICS 4.0.4 I would do a full wipe/factor reset and wipe cache/delvik. Would you recommend anything else? I usually do a full wipe twice when changing roms.

Will Google Apps still have to be downloaded from the Play store after your update?

I don't plan on changing kernels or modems or anything so booting back into CWR mode won't freeze up will it? I read on here some guy couldn't get his phone into CWR after loading your rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shishir95:
I'd flash the current version. The update will take a ton of time to get perfect. Closer to another week.

Just go ahead and flash it, and use the installer's "wipe data" function. Then, flash whatever kernel you use before rebooting. Then download an app using Play Store that lets you boot into CWR, like Quick Reboot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] texaswickedtoys:
Has anyone tried siyah 3.3.1with this rom?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Tophaholic:
I did try Siyah but it was the previous version. It worked flawlessly. I had random slowdown issues with the NEAK kernel which is packaged with this ROM, but Siyah was rock stable.

@Shishir, you might want to consider including the AppWidgetPicker in your ROM. It works perfectly and makes the widget picker compact. Tested to work with Apex Launcher.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] saladbowl831:
I've been using it for the past 2 days and haven't had any issues.

I installed Jkay and see the changes but I don't see the deluxe app
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jazzboyrules:
Now that app needs to be bought from the Play Store.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] joshh20:
But seriously though, I really do like all of the hard work and effort that you have put into this ROM, it is very nice. I am very picky about the UI of everything, so I dont know why I picked an Android phone because lets face it, the UI on Android sucks soo hard compared to iOS, but your ROM really gets everything down almost perfect as far as I'm concerned. I do wish that you had the smooth spinner animations that are in ShoStock, but I'm guessing shoman probably doesn't want anyone else to use those, so he can have a unique feature that nobody else has on their ROM. Also, I REALLY loved the old AOKP file manger, I think it was called the MIUI File Manager, but it had such a pretty UI and an FTP File server which was great for copying files to and from my phone, as I find that KIES Air is kind of crappy and not as reliable. Also, just as an idea, I have found that the Siyah Kernel seems to perform much much better than the default one, and maybe you could consider making it default, I know that it is ridiculously easy to just flash Siyah, but maybe it would be better for some less experienced users that may be having poor performance. Thanks for the great ROM ShiShir!

Vol Down+Power
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jazzboyrules:
I seem to have found one bug. But I am not sure if that happened after I flashed JKay's mod. It's very likely that JKay's the cause but I would appreciate if someone that confirm if the same happens to them with/without JKay.

Issue: The phone charges fine from computer USB and wall socket. But when I connect to the car charger, it shows that it is charging, but it doesn't actually. The network connection goes away (like when connecting an MHL adapter) and I hear a hum from the car speakers with car charger connected. I know that people may say that the car charger may be defective. But if I revert to SHOstock2 or AOKP, car charging is OK.

Any ideas if and how this can be fixed?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] saladbowl831:
Not working for me. I have JKay mod with volume to skip tracks enabled.

Not working with it disabled either
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] penguinlogik:
Works fine for me, try it with Siyah kernel? (Thats what I'm using) However, if you hear a humming, it really has to be something with your power source. As in, you need to have the same ground location for both your radio and your power adapter.

You have to press and hold it for a second or two.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jazzboyrules:
Thanks, I will try out your Siyah suggestion this weekend. I thought used the same CherryPicker kernel version with SHOstock2 3.0.4 and it worked fine. I don't think that is a ground issue, because I can't repeat that hum and MHL like symptoms (losing cellphone connection, not getting charged) on any other ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] saladbowl831:
I got it thanks. Its at the same time not like with home+power where home was first
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] penguinlogik:
Yeah, its built into ICS now instead of Samsungs "hack" of doing the home button which was annoying to do because sometimes the screen would turn off, or you would go home instead...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jaydeol:
No update?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] blackplague1347:
I like this ROM quite a lot. That is, when TouchWiz doesn't freeze, which happens somewhat frequently. I don't think it's a ROM issue so much as a TouchWiz issue though, because when I put TouchWiz from the Galaxy S3 on Shostock 2 it also had freezing issues. I'm going to try out some other kernels just in case. I'll report my results here in case anyone else is interested. Either way, great ROM. Fast and smooth. Thanks for the hard work, OP. If I can get past TouchWiz, I might stick with this one for a while.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rklatte:
Now that I've run this for a week I wanted to post an update:

First of all very smooth. Everything responds quickly. Some delays early on but that's to be expected.

Running NEAK 2.0.5 still, with the conservative governor and the Lionheart tweaks and the AFTR idle mode. Battery life has been remarkable. I'm at 46% right now and I unplugged my phone yesterday morning! If you're wondering about the battery life give this ROM and kernel a few recharge cycles, it will be worth it.

My biggest annoyance is the overly large icons and font, especially in the status bar. I ended up changing the dpi to 200. This has been mostly hassle free, the only problem was Touchwiz UX didn't like it and consult FC'd. I ended up installing APEX launcher and that's had no issues. I would prefer Touchwiz launcher though...

anyway, great ROM! Looking forward to more updates, Shishir, love your work :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shishir95:
Settings->Display->Font Size... I put that function in my ROM lol.

Anyways, I've spent the last week testing stability and speed and battery life and smoothness on the newest build... It's better in all three areas. I unplugged my phone yesterday morning and under moderate-high usage, it's still chugging along NOW. It's outstanding. I've done several framework mods and things, and it's based off of JKay now. I've been porting all my UI changes to JKay :)

New notification area too. It's hard to explain in words, but expect major major changes to the UI, but it's for the better.

As far as speed and smoothness go, it's better than the last build, which was already probably the smoothest experience many of you have had, so you can see where this is going.

No release date yet, I don't want to rush this release, so no complaining about the lack of updates -- the current version's just 1.0, but expect a jump to 2.0 soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mattern1974:
This is the best rom flying a bit "under the radar".... I switched from the awesome but endlessly updating AOKP to get back to some smooth stability of this odexed wonder.

Still getting slowly settled in with newest Siyah (lost wifi with NEAK) and battery life keeps getting better.

Glad to see the next gen of this is based off of JKay... a must have for anyone coming from the more modded, themed deodexed roms.

Thank you for bringing the smooth back!

That's in the FAQ in the first post, but I can't stop people from theming my ROM. Personally, I like the stock look, and Theming every single app is going to be difficult since this ROM is odexed, but it's certainly possible.

The new release is looking SPECTACULAR. I've already flashed my test build onto my friend's phone and after a day of heavy usage, he hasn't hit any problems.

Yes, I will try and integrate my tweaks and additional options into JKay's settings

No, I will NOT release the ROM early. It isn't finished yet

No, I do NOT give release dates or estimates. I do a better job when I'm not pressured to meet deadlines.

Yes, I take donations. When I'm not busy with my job or family matters, I work on this ROM for several hours at a time and pay out of pocket when something goes wrong. My laptop's currently on it's last legs and I'm in desperate need for another one -- and I'm a student, so my entire budget is made out of ramen and prayers :P So if you donate... I love you.

Very lovely ROM. I switched from Task's AOKP. I like yours a lot, seeings as every other ROM i've tried, I've gone back to Tasks. Good job.
