This may be pointless to say...and I may be way off...but when I was having glitches/FC's, I flashed a kernel cleaner (Ultimate cleaner or something I found on here), and seemed to clear up some probs. Ran it along with full wipe...seemed to fix. FWIW

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
all theme elements reside in /system/app and /system/partition

it doesnt matter what rom you flash, on what device, a NO WIPE flash means it wont wipe your DATA partition, no matter what, your SYSTEM partition has to be wiped...there is NO WAY AROUND IT. in order for a rom upgrade to happen, it has to format and reinstall the /system partition....because thats where the real ROM resides...

Tried to perform no wipe update and can't get the ICS theme back on without bootloops.

I had Beta5, ICS Dom universal theme 2.0.3 manually installed. Wiped dalvik and cache. Tried the no wipe update and selected to leave the theme alone (thinking it would keep the ICS theme), Beta7 flashed and worked, but no ICS theme. I've tried the install/revert option and selected the ICS theme and still had a bootloop. I also tried to use the no wipe update option and selected the ICS theme from the menu...bootloop.

Restored to my nandroid backup of Beta5 for now until I have the time for a full wipe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
What kernel are you using? Are you picking one that comes with the installer, or choosing no? If you're choosing no, then which one do you have?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
Ok. This may be pointless in light of ICS, but I just realized FLASH is not working on any of my browsers on beta 7. Don't know if I even tried it on previous betas, but not working now. I've got most current flash from Play market. Did I miss something?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
Doesn't work for me either in stock or Dolphin browsers. I realize it's two different things, but YouTube app does work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kennonk:
9 times out of 10 in my experience this is a TiBU restored or rogue app. A format of /cache /system /data and dalavik and then a fresh install and restore apps only not apps+data almost always fixes it for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EzEddie:
Chose no since I have been using Entropy 0307 on Beta5.

I tried installing the ICS 2.0.3 Universal the same way I did for Beta5 and it still resulted in bootloop. (Downloaded from here btw https://sites.google.com/site/vertumusworld/downloads)

These are steps I tried:

-Wiped Cache and Dalvik

-Installed Beta7 No wipe update (left kernel/modem alone, selected to leave theme alone)

-This resulted in a successful boot with stock theme and boot animation

-Tried going back into installer to apply ICS theme using revert/install option (after Cache and Dalvik wiped)

-Boot animation changed but resulted in bootloop

-Installed Beta7 no wipe again, resulted in successful boot with stock theme

-Wiped Cache and Dalvik

-Installed ICS theme from sdcard...Bootloop

-Restore from nandroid until I can perform full wipe

Did I miss something?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
That's your problem. You need to flash a kernel prior to 2/28 because in 2/28 and later entropy switched the sdcards to match the newer tree. The very theme needs the other sdcard path to install. So since you are using 3/07 kernel you need to drop back before 2/28.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
I think I'm running 02/28 (or 03/07, but it should be 02/28 - I switched because of something some guy named Red5 said about the stability or battery life :)) - at least in CWM the cards are swapped - but I installed and chose the Vert theme in Binnacle from the external_sd card (which shows when you choose to "install from sd card" - top option, NOT the bottom one in CWM) and it worked for me. It does take a while to install, and the first boot is REALLY long...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EzEddie:
So I can select no wipe, pick 0218 kernel, keep my modem, pick ICS theme from menu and that should work? Then update back to 0307 afterwards?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
I think you would need to flash back to 0218 first so the cards are in "the right places" in recovery. I'd feel safer doing that, anyway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Ya, what alacrify said. Flash to 2/18 first, then run the revert theme and pick ICS and watch it install.

After your done, flash back to whatever kernel you want to run (2/28 is awesome).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
I don't understand how that is happening. I tried this out in all different scenarios. It worked every time.

Let's see I tried both 218 and 307.

Sent from my HTC Incredible S
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Hmm, IDK. Every kernel I tried with after 2/28 the Dom theme would not install. Rolling back before 2/28 and it installed no problem. The only difference being the SDcard swap.

Sounds like a few people have also had the same findings as me. Either way, the fix for this issue is rolling back before 2/28.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
Yeah. I thought that too but the thing about it is there is always a /sdcard. I wonder if it only happens on those kernels where the mount points were swapped AND you install from external SD aka /emmc at that point.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
It worked for me, so it can - I'm just happy how clean it is now. I can even live without the two fixes I asked for above, so on to ICS if you want! Actually whatever you want to do is cool - the results are so awesome :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
Same here. Only...I've tried stock browser, Dolphin, Opera mini and Skyfire. Flash on websites no worky. Not a huge concern....BUT...it WAS one of the reason I came to this phone from another "fruity" company phone. ;) (Flash that is)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
I tried that before I posted (not my first time :)) - didn't work - I'll try uninstall, reboot, install and see what that does.

I'm on ICS Dom again - could that be conflicting? I guess I could try that for myself too...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
Ok, uninstalled, boot to recovery, ran Jivy's kernel cleaning script - reboot. Play store only offers "open" for flash player now - tapping open opens browser but just sits with the flash arrow. So I restored a copy of flash from TiBu from a week ago - now play store shows "open" and "uninstall", but flash sites don't work. uninstalled and reinstalled for kicks - didn't work.

I'll reinstall Binnacle tomorrow with a different theme (then flash ICS Dialer and Camera :)) and see what that does.

Still a great ROM!

K. Probably not ROM related, but anybody else having random power downs?

In the last couple days, my phone has (as far as I can tell) just shut itself off. I lock it, battery had been at anywhere from 60-90%, and when I come back to it, it's unresponsive. I have to long press the power/lock button and it powers back on. Never see it powering down.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
I think that's the SOD - which kernel are you using? And are you overclocking or undervolting? That seemed to be the issue with Entropy's kernels (check the Entropy's Daily Driver thread in development for LOTS of info).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Ya, thats kernel related, not rom related.

Downgrade to Entropy's 2/28 kernel. I bet that solves your issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
Ok...thanks guys! I was sure I was going to get a "go find out for yourself". I THOUGHT I had used the 2/18 DD which I THOUGHT had been stable for me...but MAYBE I did have a moment of "oooooohhhh...let's try something new!" and went for the 3/7 DD. I'm rebooting to run installer again now...gonna just go with 2/18 from PG's awesome AROMA (can you smellllllllllllllllllllllllllll....what PG is cookin'?) and see what happens.

Or, do you guys see 2/28 as better for some reason? If so, I'd appreciate the input. I'll d/l 2/28 if you have good reasons for it being mo better.

Again, Thanks!

Edit: That makes me wonder too...cause I didn't think my battery life was nearly as good as it was before...Beta 6 etc. One little kernel...one little kernel. Havoc or help? :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Foe me, with my setup, I like 2/28 the best. But thats just me and my setup, everyone is different. I think a lot of people chimed in though and said they liked 2/28 also.

2/15-C was also fantastic for me (speed and battery).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
Ok...i keep hearing people say this kernel or that kernel was better for "their setup". If you're running the same ROM, what other things majorly affect one's "setup" that a kernel would make a difference. Just trying to learn.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Not all batteries are the same. Some may have weaker cells than others, so thats a big factor. Others are your style... like watching Netflix of playing games, or if you browse the internet. Another is what apps you have installed and are running in the background (widgets and such). GPS is also a big factor with constantly updating your position for apps that request it. Auto brightness or screen brightness... or screen timeout, or screen timeon.

So there are a number of factors that very from person to person and phone setup to phone setup.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
Most of that would "appear" to be common sense...I guess I just "assumed" that if a kernel gives you better battery life...it'll give you better battery life...most of the things above are "drains". But I guess some kernels give or force CPU governing and other such...maybe even disable things that run that not everybody needs/uses...would that be somewhat accurate?

Again, old guy trying to learn...slowly. Patience and help is appreciated from you "young punks". :D

Edit: to answer a previous question, I just find ROM's that look clean and claim good battery and speed as much as possible. I like my phone snappy. So, No, I don't usually "undervolt" or play with CPU speeds. I just let the ROM be the ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
You could try UnOriginal - it's based off UnNamed 1.3.2, which had stellar battery life - and the current dev ryude said he'll "always go for battery life over performance or graphics, in some cases even functionality." I tried it and it worked fine, but I like all the shiny things in Binnacle, and I still get good battery life out of it with DD 02/28.

I will say that 02/15-C was probably the best battery life I had, but my other kernel "stuff" seems better on 02/28. 03/05 and 03/07 didn't work very well on my hardware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Are you copying my posts from around this forum, or just my thoughts? :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
Yeah I saw that and was/am very tempted...especially since I came from unnamed 2.2.1 and liked it a lot...very stable. But I kinda like the JKay, blue circle and snappiness I've got here. I just reverted back to DD 2/18 and already feels better. I may be crazy, but on 3/7 the ROM seemed sluggish...not the way it felt when I first tried it out and liked it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
Just your thoughts - they're easier to steal since there's no proof you thought them first :).

From seeing your posts, I think we got our phones from the same assembly lot - they seem to track pretty close on what works and what doesn't. And we seem to like the same ROMs too, which probably adds to it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Did you reboot?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dinky:
My first try on this ROM. Great job done from the chef. Overall it looks great and looks like a good candidate to replace UnNamed on my phone, but PIN-locked screen still broken in Beta 7. It is important to me because the security policy of our Exchange direct push requires PIN-locked screen enforced.

Not sure if this happens to anybody else, but Beta 7 gives me random screen brightness flares from time to time. I use LogGraph to adjust screen brightness under different light to my liking. But even i disabled it, the screen brightness flare still came up from time to time.

Thanks for chef's hard work and keep up with the good job. I'm really hoping this is going to be the next ROM for my daily use.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
I was getting weird errors (FC on quicksearchbox even after replacing the APK and rebooting, for example) - I did a "revert/theme change" install to switch from ICS Dom to HTC blue circle, but that left parts of ICS Dom and I still got errors. So I did a no wipe install of HTC blue circle (fixed the FCs), then a no wipe install of ICS Dom (FC again) then replaced the quicksearchbox APK and rebooted while still in the file explorer. That finally fixed it.

Don't know if jumping through those hoops would help, but something in that cleaned up something for me...

Of course - Jivy's kernel cleaner is my first step before flashing anything, and if I installed the HTC blue circle the search box worked fine. App data didn't help at all.

Like I said, if he wants to call this done and move on, I'm MORE than fine with that.

Since its definitely theme related, is that something PG should even try to fix... sounds to me that the creator/owner of the theme should fix it. Id rather PG put his resources elsewhere IMO.
