Idk what you did task but I'm getting mad battery for my use. Thanks a million.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 122ninjas:
How much screen time? Without that it looks really bad.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] plaseo:
About 3hrs 24min of screen time. WiFi always on sync always on, brightness turned full blast GPS always on, screen timeout set to five min. I know I could it could do much better lowering brightness, turning things off etc. But if it gets me though the day using it 110% its so much better. On ICS I usually had to throw it on a charge by now. That's why I said for my use ;)

Hmm anyone notice the speaker volume on JB rom is lower than that of aokp's ics rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] knownunknown:
Since there are several posts in this thread about the volume on this ROM, I'm sure someone has noticed.

Its a known non-issue. There are several apps that will let you adjust the volume.

Ninja: Found a few for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TheSkinnyDrummer:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nicktuso:
It's hilarious, I was reading engadget and saw there was an update, so came here and found an update Lol. Did a full wipe, starting fresh with this one, my backlights aren't working like they should right now but I'll let the ROM settle for a day before I switch kernels back to fluxi, my phone seems to love that one with working bln so either way.

Anyone tried the tablet UI yet?

Your lack of searching.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nicktuso:
This.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jackal2001:
This brings up a good question about wiping/installing roms. I've seen varying instructions for roms but wanted to question what the exact best procedure would be.

1. wipe data/factory reset

2. wipe cache partition

3. advaced > wipe dalvik cache

4. advaced > wipe battery stats (not sure about this if needed or not, maybe best to do it anyway???)

5. mounts and storage > format /system

Would this be considered best practice when bouncing around from rom to rom or to do an absolute clean install???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Tdiliplane:
The best practice would be to follow what the dev puts in the op. They write specific instructions for a reason. Also there is never a reason to wipe battery stats when flashing a new rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jackal2001:
I've seen wipe battery stats on other roms, that is why I am questioning it. I meant to ask if you are constantly going back and forth between ICS and JB would that be the best procedure? Not arguing, just trying to find out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mcala:
Yeah, no need for battery stats wipe but I always format system last to avoid the status error 7 problem. Then I run a kernel cleaner for any remnants of init scripts but I think formatting system takes care of that. I also format my internal SD ******but****** I make sure that the ROM I'm flashing is on my EXTERNAL SD FIRST.!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] grubby0:
This phone/battery combo is amazing at calibrating itself. You should just let it be and a couple cycles of charge and it will line itself out. You may see some strange numbers at first and even some charging indication while not charging but this is a smartphone being smart.. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jackal2001:
I also found this nice guide over here and I think it doesn't hurt to follow this:

http://www.thesuperusersguide.com/how-to-flash-a-rom.html
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] clay101eve:
OR, instead of linking outside sources, you could just follow what's been beat to fu¢k¡ng death, IN THESE FORUMS, and do as the Dev says for his ROM. That, or just always:

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe cache/dalvik

Kernel Cleaning script (debatable, but won't hurt)

Flash ROM

Flash Gapps

Any issues? Repeat.

Oh, that's what's been beat to death!!!

EDIT: Too much fail last night to wake up to more this morning... kinda grumpy. I heart you Task!

Or you can alternatively throw your phone against the wall and it will complete all those tasks for you...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
not sure why you are making things so complicated. just follow whats stated in the OP and you won't have any issues.

wiping battery stats does absolutely nothing to this device. this phone has its own calibration system and does it on it's own. wiping stats or using apps will do nothing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
Wiping the system partition doesn't do anything to fix the status 7 error you get if the rom yer flashing is checking to see what yer build.prop says. If its looking for an i777 and you have a hell raised or ported rom with the build.prop set to i9100 it will give u the status 7 error. Or vice versa. Some roms already have the script removed to check what device you have so they'll flash fine no matter what.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jackal2001:
Not trying to make it complicated. Just trying to find the cleanest way to install. not sure if you have scripts built in to wipe /system or not.

I've had weird things happen like i couldn't turn off wifi for some reason. The toggle was stuck on. Had to reboot the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Tdiliplane:
+1 The microwave is also another fix. 40 seconds should do the trick. :laugh:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
When flashing this ROM it automatically formats system. The rest is on you to follow the instructions that are stated in the OP if you have any issues like you're talking about.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] joeybear23:
I use the TiBu reboot after batch backup option... always have since my Captivate days.

I've been following this and the S3 thread. I'm wondering why the S3 seems to be having more problems than we're having over here... probably just a retorical question as I guess I don't expect there's an answer. But out of curiosity, I'd like to know if there is. Task, do you know why the S2 seems more stable?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jthatch12:
There is more idiots/noobs that follow that thread than this one most likely
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
the sgs2 is not more stable the the sgs3. the sgs3 runs, performs, and has way more stability than the sgs2. the only reason why it looks that way is because the sgs3 forums are over crowded with noobs that have no clue what they are doing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mapobean:
Nicely stated Task! why cant these people search before filling these forums with pointless posts (kinda like this one) and the ROM is Awsome you guys are amazing absolutely no problems what so ever and I installed it with a carrier pigeon
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] lvlark02:
i followed exactly the OP instructions, none of it mention format /system or any other extra steps, i also tried to reflash & still same results. i'm coming from a Samsung based ROM AT&T I777, so it beats me why im having this error. I've never use the kernel cleaner script, but i might as well give it a try.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jackal2001:
I'm just trying to learn more about this stuff for my own knowledge. I have no issues flashing the ROM using the OP instructions, nor have I ever had any issues during the install process. Again, just asking a general question.

I don't think my questions were pointless... not as so much as people posting other stuff.

So, the ota updater told me there was an update, and I got excited... then I noticed it told me that the build for the new update is "AOKP i777 JB Build 9.14.2012 is available" with my current version being "i777 JB Build 9.14.2012b"

I updated to the latest version on the 14th, and this is the first time this has popped up for me, so idk what happened there. I full wipe every time I update so idk why that popped up, lol

I ignored it, was I right to do that?

I thought we had our fair share here, but I guess not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] keyrat:
Weird bug here connecting to Windows 7 via USB.

If I just connect it, nothing happens.

If I enable debugging, once I connect I get the message that debugging is enabled, and it shows up in Windows 7 as a portable media player (as opposed to removable disk). This lets me browse the contents of the internal storage, but it only shows me items created since I flashed the ROM yesterday. It shows the DCIM folder, with Camera inside, and only 2 photos.

This goes hand in hand with a problem I've been having: the Gallery app won't show any pictures that I haven't taken with the new ROM.

But then, just when you thought somehow the internal SD was wonky, if I check with my File Explorer app, I can access the SD Card (though it pauses for a second and says 'querying file system' every time), and access the DCIM -->Camera folders, and inside there are all my pictures, the new and the old.

Any ideas? Fixing permissions did not work. USB mounting from CWM didn't work either.

Same here, you can find other distro's of course, but ubuntu just takes a lot of the hassle out of running linux, esp for those who aren't super tech-savy or geek kneds... Several guys at work used Mint, but Ubuntu far and away most popular I think. There are more complicated distro's out there, but unless you are a rpm head ubuntu is as good as any imo.

InfantryMarc You already have the probable answer, but updates can fail for various reasons, from mirrors being offline, to using unauthorized sources, cert issues, firewall, etc. Check out any of the linux help sites out there, starting with ubuntu's own wiki, or linuxquestions.org, tuxfiles, howtogeek, etc.

This was discussed earlier, iirc Task didn't resize in a build by accident, but would up liking the cropped version better so just left it.

I guess I am different because I just do sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade *you need to install aptitude* worked great with Debian which I ran for 10+ years and than I ran gentoo but I hate compiling everything when Ubuntu at least has latest packages versus Debian lol.
