I just wanted to chime in and say that I think Mystic's support of his rom so far has been pretty damn good. He might not have the exact answer for everything but he's been pretty good about responding and following up along with fixing what he's able to.

I think it's a little unfair to say his rom isn't "being properly supported." His effort is clearly visible and personally I think this thread deserves a full 5 stars.

Just my two cents...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
I agree... Considering that 95%+ of us are all on the same carrier - a fully built firmware should not have APN problems on AT&T as it should have been tested first before releasing! (This is, for example, why Hellraiser hasn't been released yet - it still needs more testing.)

If you're releasing firmwares here, you shouldn't have to wait for me to release a Hellraiser update, you should be able to read the commit logs for yourself and understand what each component does. I didn't have to do ANYTHING special to get working APNs on my device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
And task it's running better than what your giving credit for. You act like its a rom full of bugs when its not. A data issue where the data goes out is easily fixable. Just need some help to finding out how to put it in the rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gobig89:
Thanks!!! Works great! Keep up the good work. Also minor complaint, the camera app takes a long time to open and sometimes when my phone has been inactive for an extended period of time the power button becomes unresponsive. And is there a way to change which screen is your home screen in the TW launcher?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
ummm.... i said absolutely nothing about your rom other then the APN issue. so either your really high, or you failed to read my posts. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SmittyRN:
Been there, done that. Wasn't about to post this problem without trying that first.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
I don't think you guys understand what problem they are having. DATA WORKS FINE. The speeds are just slow. Everything is working fine.

And just a note neither of you have offered to help me and thats all I'm asking for is help to put in a simple apn that improves data speeds natively into the rom.

If your not going to help then I really don't see the point in you posting in this thread anymore. Xda's policy is to help noobs LIKE ME. I released a rom and everything is working fine. I'm just posting roms so people can use.

And I'll bet you anything neither you or task have tried it. Your going off some users reports of minor issues and saying I have no idea what I'm doing. The rom works. Simple as that. And I'm constantly supporting it.

Honestly Entropy I like your work but your such an asshole to people who dont get everything as easy as you. YOU'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR YEARS. I STARTED SATURDAY. SATURDAY.

You and task are experienced devs and i respect that. You should be helping out people trying to develop instead of telling them to shut the **** up.

Now if your not going to help then don't post on this thread anymore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
So i take it your not going to help. See post above^

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Not on the international version. And glad you like it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Lol i needed that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
actually... (and now the business starts) I downloaded your rom to check out your file system and i found quite a few things that weren't right. well you decided to throw a zipalign script in intit.d without anything to fire it off from xbin. Next... you have scripts that are only working against eachother and some of them dont even do anything. On top of all that... there is no instance of init.d in your updater-script. so im still unclear as to why you would put scripts into a non-working init.d folder. as for your "internet speed tweaks", those arent even applicable to our device. So im not sure what you were thinking there. I would go on more but I'm bored with this. :D

P.S- I didnt tell you too shut the **** up nor did Entropy. I said do a little research. Just like I would to anyone. Then you said "help me". But basically, you were asking for the answer. To be spoonfed. When I already did help you by saying "do a little research".

P.P.S- So in all reality I dont need to run your rom to know that there are too many discrepancies throughout the the system. it wouldnt be smart on my part.

P.P.P.S- im done with this conversation. no need to respond. Lets be done with this. thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
And THIS is why you should NOT have released anything to the public.

I have not been doing "this" for years. Android hasn't existed for years. On other devices I never did any development work. My first work with Android development was xdandroid libgps - I spent a week figuring that out on my own, and then two weeks before I released anything to the public. My first kernel work was on the Infuse back in July, and I didn't release anything to the public for on the order of two months (with the exception of pushing stuff to github occasionally.)

Yet here you are, "not a developer" and "you started doing this Saturday" - and you're already putting things out for public consumption? Why release so early?

As I stated before - you should not have to wait for a new Hellraiser, considering that every technique used in Hellraiser is documented in the git commit logs for it, including APN and CSC changes. APN and CSC files didn't change whatsoever from Gingerbread to ICS, so it's kind of surprising you'd have so many problems.

Discussion of the proper APNs to work on AT&T HSPA+ accounts is covered in multiple locations and multiple forums...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Lol. Two devs won't help out a noob. Ok. People of I777 forums. You see your own devs trying to cancel new and upcoming devs. Proof right here.^

And task don't post here anymore if your not going to help. I'll figure it out myself as I've been doing since Saturday.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] driftkidd2323:
they're telling you that you're doing it wrong, try and listen to them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
I released it so "early" because it was stable. And i still don't think you understand. Data works. The rom is stable. Just ask anyone who's tested it.

And like i said i respect you and use your kernels, hellraiser, and whatever else you posted.

Anyways if you want to be helpful in any way. Is all i need to do is take your csc file (other folders) from your hellraiser and put it into the rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Im trying. But not offering help is not contributing in any way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
this is a lie. if you this this a conspiracy against you or any "upcoming devs" I think you need to get checked bro. peace out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Globalrebel:
I would look at their comments as experienced viewpoints. They have been dealing with "noobs" and such for a long time, and they are both VERY helpful. I have tried your ROM and like it, and will continue to use it.

But, please don't get into a fight with any of our Developers. They work hard (as I'm sure you do) and don't need anyone making their lives harder.

Keep up the good work, and try to take constructive criticism a little easier. It will make your roms better and faster in the long run.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Crap i did not mean to thank you. And yes. like i said before leave.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Im trying. But not even pointing me in the right direction is not helping.

They are both great. But they won't help anyone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
you thanked me because you know im right. thank you for understanding bro. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] williampp:
thanks man!!!:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
Mystic, one way I would look at this is like this:

You know they're respected devs and can attest to the quality of work they do. Try to simply look at the fact that task took the time to at least engage you here in the thread and voice his concerns. Maybe it came across critical to ya and rubbed ya the wrong way. Then Entropy voiced his agreement with task and you felt double-teamed. I can see that.

But I don't feel that was their point. If they really didn't care and had no interest in helping, neither would have spoken up. I think they'd like to see you succeed because happy devs breed more happy devs and overall it makes it a better place to want to be.

I know it's easy for me to say this from an outside POV but I just want to make sure you don't get rattled. Take the positive from their posts and continue your work as you've been doing. They WILL help you get better, even if you don't see it now...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Right. (sarcasm)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
I hope so. I'm trying to learn. But from what i just saw when i asked for help doesn't convince me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dayv:
You can manually change which apn is the default. Edit the apn that is the current default, go to the APN Type: line and remove the word "default" from the list there. Then go to the apn you want to be default and add the word "default" to the APN Type: line. Just use a comma to separate default from the rest of the words listed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nyydynasty:
yes, the red theme works great. Again, after using it all day, the only issue is in the play store. Most font is a bit hard to read and one particular line (next to where you can "+1" the app) is black on black. Otherwise, its great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Great

Does recording video work on this rom? Only thing I'm really worried about.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] OptiiKaL:
Yep, video recording is working
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] prince_niceguy:
yes it does. I today did video recording.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iGuitarGuy:
Downloading now.. have been looking for a good ics rom that has both the video camera working and the wii controller app (which works usually if it is a AOSP rom) for the emulators I use.

Looking forward to it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Slavestate:
Nope. You can only do that with the US/ATT version of TW. This ones using the international version from the i9100.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] priest2705:
Thanks MysticKing....I appreciate your work and I love your ROM, despite the data issues right now. Hell, just means I can't do a speed test until we get it fixed, no biggie:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Lol. Well it just won't be as fast. And thanks for your support.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iGuitarGuy:
I just installed and everything looks like it is in Russian O.o

EDIT: This is the new version 7 that I am referring to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
At the beginning when you flashed the rom you were supposed to change the language to English. Lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iGuitarGuy:
Dang. Got to reflash. Lol. Where in the beginning do you mean? In CWM? Or right after you flash and try to boot?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
As soon as the rom boots. You'll see a drop down menu. Press it and scroll up till you see English.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] patriot720:
So you can now use a wiimote with samsung ics roms? Did they change the bluetooth stacks in ics?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iGuitarGuy:
I'm about to try it haha. If this is like the aosp roms with the different bluetooth stack like the MIUI rom, it should work.

Try rebooting. If that doesn't work then turn on gps from the main settings menu. Not the status bar.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Smacdallas:
Great rom! But why isn't this in the dev section? This isn't ported?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Suprasb:
I was wondering that myself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PatriotXT92:
Because it is based off of something made by wanam who is a i9100 developer and made to work on our devices plus whatever else has been added.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cornfruit:
I'm not an Android dev but I am a developer. There's help, and then there's help. In order to learn from an experienced developer, you need to get to a point (on your own) where you understand enough about an architecture to ask the right questions. It's the difference between a hack job and a beautiful piece of software.

It's one thing to say "i'm not sure I wrote this init script correctly, could you take a look at it" and quite another to say "help me make a better rom."

Just my $.02.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Wasn't asking for a better rom. All i asked was for a way to change the default apn.

Appreciate your input though
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PatriotXT92:
Did you end up finding what you are looking for?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Na. Not yet. I made two versions of my rom and swapped out the files in Entropy's hellraiser with them. Still no new apn.

I'll figure it out one way or another. Until then people can change it manually.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] howtomen:
Not to pile on hate but heres my two cents.... the apn issue is minor compared to whats really wrong. whats really wrong is that this rom has stuff thats not working and it seems to me u do not have the knowledge to mantain a rom here.... let me point out some flaws... ur buildprop.. u threw random tweaks in there like hardware accel(on ics really?) Then some stuff that doesnt work and no perm... then ur init.d arent working because no perms... zipalign has no bin/xbin file... ur installer still has all of wanams print so that's untouched... ive been trying to make roms for almost a year now and i posted my first one 1 month ago because thats when i was ready and understood how most things work... from what i can see u have a lot more to learn.... also this rom is so great because of wanams base... because all of ur tweaks... every single one... is not working because of lack of perms and so on... so there just occupying space...

Im not saying im better or anything because im still a noob... but this rom is just wanam hellraised with some unused scripts...

*imagine cool signature made by howtomen here*
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LiLChris06:
Anything that was based off another developer's work belong in the ported section.

When major changes have been done to the base, then it can be possible to be original development.

Build.prop tweaks, modem, kernel changes do not count as development.

I started out porting Turkbey Rom and then start doing my own roms from the firmware, so this isn't a bad start as long as you look deeper into developing. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Yes i am a noob. Read the disclaimer statement in the op.

And no the build.prop tweaks have effects. And no they're not random they are used from other ics roms in the sgs2 section.

But as for init.d I think your right. I forgot to add permission. Will work on that later.

Anyways time to drop this. Spamming up the thread. Change subjects.

(comment acknowledged and appreciated)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] leadman1415:
I have tried all of the ics roms that have been posted and this is by far my favorite.. with apex and the ics theme off Google play my phone looks pretty sweet!! But anyways thanks mystic for your hard work and everyone out there working hard on these roms and kernels!!! Awesome work!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] howtomen:
Ics is hardware accelerated tho... why would u need the tweak? And the build prop is lacking perms

What permission is it lacking. I gave it permission in the update script

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ou812bkewl:
First thanks to MysticKing32 for the port. I'm not running this at the moment, but I flashed it at release 3 or 4. When returing to stock through creepyncrawly's Odin one-click, at the point where it would normally reboot and show some text about a temp/csc/ATT folder being inaccessible, it instead showed SKE or SER in place of ATT. The issue corrected itself after downloading the official KK6 OTA. But I was wondering what might have caused this ROM to make a change that would survive a flash to stock? This has never happened before and I have used I9100 GB ROMs many times.

CWM Version

I have a quick question... When I rooted my SGH-i777 I obviously flashed CWM for the AT&T version, but now I've noticed it's acting odd. Saving my backups to my EXTERNAL SD (Which then when I go to restore older backups, I can't get to them because it doesn't allow me to CHOOSE where to restore from). Also my captivatic buttons no longer work in CWM. With this ROM being based off the international version, do I need to now re-flash the I9100 version of CWM, or will that totally hose up my recovery?

In the short term, I just moved all my older backups out to my external SD, but I don't want to lose functionality within CWM, and have to Odin back to stock. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Weird. Odin works fine for that. It might have been a temporary issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
You use the volume and the power buttons. Thats how cwm works now.

And bacjups r fine
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Clevermix2000:
Ok. I just wanted to make sure. I don't know WHY the locations changed, but like I said, I just moved the old backups over. As smooth as this baby is working now though, I don't see any reason to go back. Great job!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gogorman:
Anyone have as flash-able battery that is similar to the UnOriginal one?

It's a circle style - number in the middle, dots around that make the circle.

But it is all grey to match the rest of the icons. No blue or green (only red when it gets down to less than 15%.)

CRT mods too? Are these possible?

I'm trying UOT Kitchen, but it is too busy right now...

Status Updates

First I wanna say all of this is just amazing you guys are the best and make learning a whole lot easier.

What I wanted to ask is how to do make the pictures and status updates from my contacts update on the contacts widgets, I remeber something like this happened on my Atrix and all i had to do was change a couple of things in the accounts.xlm but when i went and checked everything is set to true so any ideas or something i missed.

So basically my contacts widgets are not updating their facebook pictures or status updates, not even on the contacts tab itself.

Thanks in advance for any help
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Clevermix2000:
I had this happen with mine, but when I rebooted my phone the widget pictures updated.

If you are talking about the pictures not auto-updating in your contact list, mine never have. Not even on the stock ROM. I use an app called "Sync My Pics" from the market. You can set it to update weekly, or whenever, and it will update your contacts pics from Facebook for you. Plus if you have contacts that you do NOT want their pics to change (Like I have one set for my wife, that I like better than her FB pic) you can set it to NOT update certain contacts.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] memoryu:
Thanks but yeah it actually used to update their facebook pics on the contacts tab and the status used to show up right bellow the picture
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Clevermix2000:
I totally understand, but like I said, even on stock, mine stopped updating for some reason. I think it's an issue with TW. People think it's JUST a launcher, but it's what adds all of those functionalities, and the color to the menus. If you see stock ICS, it's all black and white menus, with blue highlights, and it doesn't sync pics. It just pulls down whatever you have in your Google contacts.

That "Sync my Pix" app runs in the background. You can set it to update every day, if you want. So it will work just like the native OS SHOULD. You set it up once, and just leave it.

I've been using it for months. Ever since I got my GS2, and I've never even touched it since. But my contact pics update, and so do my Contact widgets.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gogorman:
Where is that app located? How do we set it up?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Slavestate:
Ive had no luck with Facebook sync either. I had it set to sync only existing contacts but it added my entire friends list. And yep still didnt show the pics. Wonder if FB just needs an ICS update..

As for facebook contact sync it stopped syncing pictures with the ics update. (All ics) i use friendcaster
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Clevermix2000:
It's in the market. Called "SyncMyPix", and it's free. Very easy to set it up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dmm5157:
I 2nd the SyncMyPix recommendation. I've used it the past couple years and love it. You can schedule when it updates the pictures, override picture assignments, etc. I like having the control better than letting other apps or account syncs do it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Clevermix2000:
Exactly! Like I said in an earlier post. I have certain contacts whose pictures I have set up, and like better than their Facebook pic. So I can remove them from the "Update" list, and it will not change their pics on update.

Plus, if you use the "Contact" widget for ICS, it will automatically update their pic on your widget as well.
