Well I still have my 3g sim and was indeed told by a rep at an att store and the guys I work with at best buy that I won't get those speeds until I change to the 4g unlimited plan they have for us grandfathered folks. As long as your plan didnt have one of the old messaging plans attached they automatically put you on the 4g unlimited plan when you went from iPhone to the i777. I was told they would've for me but I have that text package attached from back when I had a blackberry 4 years ago and they can't do it unless I drop it. There's threads here about the old unlimited plans too that have confirmed it. I've watched a brand new tiered plan gs2 in the store hit 9mbps while mine topped out at 4 standing right next to the guy..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rav4kar:
anyone noticing reduced wifi bars or they keep chaging from 3 to 4 bars in recent nightlies. I don't have any wifi problem, but in places where i used to get constant full 4 bars get this fluctuations.

also, it is confirmed phone calls crashing and rebooting was fixed in latest nightly.

No probs here, wifi strong as heck like always, on today's build. I am using fluxi kernel, not sure if that would affect it.

I disabled this about a week ago and saw a huge positive impact on battery life, i.e. my phone can now make it to the end of the day on one charge.

Oh yeah. I work at Best Buy too. Not in the mobile dept though. I'm a CSM. I didn't know about the texting package. I've always had unlimited texting, so they switched me to a 4G unlimited plan.

The tree for the kernel CyanogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4210 isn't included in the changelog for the I777 or the GT-I9100 so you have to go to here to see kernel merges: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/q/s...anogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4210,n,z

Edit: Looks like the 3.0.32 update was pushed without a Gerrit project so that would require looking here: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4210/commits/ics

Is there a different 'nuke' code to completely wipe a device now with ICS? when I type *2767*3855# nothing happens. Previously, it would completely wipe everything off of the phone (hard reset) as opposed to always having a ton of extra files/folders from previous installs etc... With ICS though apparently this doesn't work, or CM9 broke it. just curious if anyone knows about this.

Anyone tried to go back to stock from CM9 so their phone can be replaced under warranty? I just tried using the UCKH7 recovery executible that I've used in the past, but it puts my phone into a boot loop. Tried reflashing, but no dice. I can get into recovery mode and it doesn't show me as having tripped the flash counter, so I can still return it, but curious if this is a 'problem' with CM9 that you can't go back to stock once you go to 4.x.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] motocrossmann:
Loving CM9! Anyone able to access SIM contacts from their car stereo on CM9? It was working when I was on Shostock ICS, but now I cannot get to them. PBAP is working for normal contacts, but not SIM contacts.

i see a change made to the kernel that smartass can be loaded as a module, but the comments on gerrit seem to imply that smartass causes some issues

my questions are

what issues? (where do i find the information)

are they referring to smartass or smartassV2?

and how do i load the module (i was under the impression i'd need a *.ko file, which i dont see referenced anywhere)?

After you flash back to stock go back into recovery and wipe all your caches again. That always worked for me every time I flashed stock from miui and got a boot loop . I hope that helps.:D

( I may have done a factory reset as well... I don't remember :o)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stalked_r/t:
i had tried that. i finally just took it to the AT&T warranty depot. they tried to flash a fresh install and it wouldn't take. So now the question is, does flashing CM9 prevent you from ever returning to stock if you wanted to, or was my situation a one off.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
Flashing a custom ROM shouldn't prevent you from returning to stock, unless there is something else wrong with the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stalked_r/t:
It's not completely inconieivable that going to 4.x then trying to go back down to 3.x will break something or not be attainable in it's current reflash form. There's plenty of software that when upgraded, can't be downgraded. I just don't know enough about Android to speak knowledgably on the subject. Then again, you could be right and there was something wrong with my phone.

I just don't want to brick another phone to find out the hard way. I don't think the AT&T warranty department will view it as coincidence if I do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
I don't have an I777, but the GT-I9100 is essentially the same device and I have flashed to 4.0.x and back to 2.3.x on a number of occasions without any noticeable issue.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
The only thing on our phone that is difficult to upgrade/downgrade are the bootloaders - which flashing CM9 does NOT flash.

I'm wondering if the call crash issues are due to a mistake I made when bringing in some Note changes that broke the prox sensor... Of course, not a single person here who complained about crashes provided a last_kmsg dump.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
Given that the fix they merged to fix it had to do with the prox sensor, I'd say there's a good chance that was the problem with the calls.

Edit: did you really expect that they would provide you with useful debugging information?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mcala:
Maybe they are actually following the OP!

No feature request

No bug reports

No eta asking

Teamhacksung could care less about your bugs on nightlies.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
Yes, it does say that, that's because the usual bug reports are stuff like: "mah phone not workz, halp plox" which as you may guess is completely useless and just craps up the thread or people who think that a bug is a feature they want implemented that isn't. On the other hand, a quality bug report with logcat or last_kmsg attached might actually get a bug looked at, I was commenting on Entropy512s post, with a good bug report he probably could have fixed it more quickly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mcala:
I know what what you mean. Lol on the halp plox! Entropy512 is a well respected dev., "Da Man", so if you can logcat it, please do, we all would benefit from the issue being addressed. I was just being a smart ass!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
I sympathize with the devs here, I do this every day as my job for a group of senior exec types who have no business turning a computer on, let alone trying to use one, their typical bug report is similar to much of what you see on here and there is no way I could explain to them how to get logs or anything like that.

Hi guys, just had a weird problem. Had my phone connected to my computer for maybe a few hours, I check it and the phone is almost dead. It says that it is plugged into the computer, has a little lightning bolt, but the battery meter is just grey and doesnt seem to be charging at all. On top of this, my phone battery plummeted when it should have been idle.

I went and plugged it into a wall socket but still the battery stayed grey with lightning bolt. I then restarted the phone and it was still just grey. Waited like 15 minutes and now it's charging. Any ideas? I am on 5/07 nightly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mcala:
I have an idea, how bout updating to 5/23 with a full wipe maybe, your build is old man!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ashhong:
I could =P I read a lot about bugs and such lately so I have been holding off because I haven't had a single problem with this build, so I'm reluctant to blame the build. I was thinking maybe the battery or an app, just wanted to see if anyone had any ideas.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
Might be your cable/charger, plugging your phone into USB causes a wake lock, if the charger isn't delivering enough current to power whatever is going on with the phone (should be minimal if the screen is off and phone is idle) the phone might run down, a similar thing can happen if you use GPS on your phone while plugged into a car charger since the car charger doesn't push enough current to charge the phone and run the screen/dps the phone actually loses charge.

If you have another cable, I'd try that first.

Edit: it also could be that your cable has bent or dirty contacts too, given that it started working eventually.

Ok, I have a question. I am running CM9 build 5/24/2012, and having an issue with installing an app, either via the "Play Store" app, or play.google.com. The app in question is:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tomdignan.android.LEDCallerID

According to play.google.com, it is not compatible with my I777, but it works perfectly fine if I transfer the APK from another phone.

I have tried clearing the data/force stop from the "Google Play Store" app, but this did not help. I've also been in contact with the developer, but he is at a loss as well. Via the app, I can go to "My Apps".. then "All", and can locate the app there, but it doesn't let me install it. The logcat spits out errors like:

I guess my big question is: Has anyone else running CM9 on their I777 had an issue with certain apps being incompatible?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ashhong:
Thanks I"ll try another charger if the problem happens again. My battery seemed to have died overnight while being charged but it was probably because I fell asleep while using Splashtop. Woke up with it turned off at 100%.

Can somebody run a quick test for me? Does the Go SMS notification pop up on the stock CM9 lock screen? I'm talking the quick reply box thing. I know the stock SMS app doesnt, but not sure why Go SMS doesn't.

First post! Had to join to thank the developers for incredible job they are doing! I switched over to cm9 a month or so ago and haven't looked back!

I too experience the "ringing once," but only if I'm using a custom ringtone.

A google search returned a similar unsolved? behavior with galaxy s2 (no clue if its the i777 model) on

CM 7.2 RC2

. Completely different CM versions, but could they be related? I can't post links yet, but search google for "Issue 4610:	custom ringtone gets only played once"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] WRX1:
I have had this since I started cm9. Never had the issue on cm7.2. I have tried the full wipes, different ring tones, everything, I still get 1 ring then vibrate. I am just about to try 5/25, but I am guessing I will still have the same results since I have had this issue since I started on the cm9 nightlies around 3/29.

Hopefully someone can find something because if you miss the first ring, you don't really get any notification that someone is calling.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DefTaker:
Thanks clemdaddy - You're right...I switched to one of the ringtones that's included with the rom and the phone will ring continuously (until it goes to VM, of course).

Sucks, since I like using a "digital ring" as my default ringtone and now it seems that this ring tone will not automatically loop and only rings once.

I have to assume that you're using a stock ringtone which is why you haven't encountered this issue.

I have also tried putting the digital ringtone file in /system/media/audio/ringtone with permissions set to rw-r-r and rebooted the phone to make sure the settings stick but still doesn't work.

For now, I've decided to stick with one of the stock ringtones but hoping someone can figure out a better solution.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] FunkeeC:
just tested on 5/24 and confirmed my custom ringtones ring as expected w/o issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DefTaker:
How long are your custom ring tones? If they're long (e.g.: music/song or 15+ seconds), then it will continue to ring.

However, if you have a short ringtone it will not automatically loop the sound...the digital ringtone I'm using is from the stock gingerbread and worked fine previously on CM9.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iXNyNe:
not sure when it happened but when i go to settings > display > automatic backlight > edit other levels i cannot change the values for sensor (lower)

i am able to change the values for screen, but when i save and leave and then come back all the settings are reset to default

i know the samsung light sensor only works in multiples of 10, but with the current setup the brightness options are insanely dim for my liking and im unable to change them...

Sorry failed to mention that I'm using imperial death march via zedge ringtones and as I stated it rings and vibrates fine. HTH
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DefTaker:
And I think that's due to the fact that the Imperial Death March ringtone is over 15 seconds...again, any ringtone that's only a couple of seconds will not automatically loop and play as it did before which results in the now "ring once only" issue.

Tried on my I9100 (same hardware), locked in 12 seconds on 7 sats from cold. 5/22 is 5 days old, try updating to the latest, also check to make sure that your GPS source is set to internal and not external.

For everyone: I realize that it may be difficult and somewhat time consuming to update every day to the latest nightly, especially when there are very few changes you think will actually affect your device, but please remember not all the changes show up in the change log (kernel for the I777 does not) and some of these changes may fix the issues you're having. If you are having trouble with something and are on an old build, try updating, that way if the issue still there you're at least on the newest base which will make it easier for people to track your issue down.

I did not notice tjis before on 0517 for example. Now I set the tunein to buffer 15 secs before play as a workaround.
