+1 there has been an influx of. New members.. Who seem to be becoming more and more demanding. And do not follow directions. Also post trash in your rom threads because they didnt flash properly. For this reason amoung a few others im taking a break.

Lol no matter what its always. This is cool but can u change this this and this. Or i dont like that. Lol which happens much more then thanks for your work. And this influx. Has also brought to many users. Who dont even make an attempt to sort out an issue when they have one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] n19htmare:
Most if not all ROMS are functional. If not, the Devs wouldn't use them and definitely wouldn't post them.

I've been a member here a while, I may not have a lot of posts or stuff but I've definitely been around the block when it comes to flashing kernels, firmwares, roms, radios etc.

I have NEVER EVER EVER bricked a device. I've also never had a rom that was so bad that it was not usable.

Most all roms I have tried HAVE WORKED. Yes some of them have quirks sometimes that were carried over from a leak or simply overlooked by overworked and flustered Devs.

The point I'm trying to make is the majority of the issues, complaints and whining arises from noobs NOT FOLLOWING DIRECTIONS!!! or COMBINING directions from different sources.

Other huge issue is RESTORING old files that bork the system. It's not the DEVs job to make their ROM compatible with every restore possible. They offer a working base ROM that works OUT OF THE BOX.

1) I have never done a FULL BLIND RESTORE. THis is a "Select all, Restore" option in any backup software.

2) I back up the important stuff manually, and back it up manually. Don't rely on a software to save all your pics, do it manually. As with other things.

3) When doing restores, don't do restores of old versions of apps and then come complain that the app doesn't work. I always download fresh copies of my apps.

4) Titanium Backup is a GREAT piece of development but don't try to restore system files saved in GB on ICS (or any file IMO). That's common sense.

Seriously, MOST ALL ROMS ARE STABLE AND FUNCTIONAL. It's personal preference that has always decided which ROM I want to use.

Just my 2 cents.

My first donation was to cyanogen when he first launched his ROM for the T-Mobile G1. We had other great developers for the G1 (Haykuro, JesusFreak)..... Look at where Cyanogen is now, that's from his hard work and our support.

These Devs are doing a service, Nearly EVERYTHING they do is for free and is available for free. I'm all for reporting bugs and offering suggestions, as without them, DEVS would be stuck but do it with some respect.

In the end, show a little respect for their hard work.

I must admit I like active threads as much as the next guy, to chat about fixes, and development, and ideas, but that's when you search around a bit and find something else that interests you. I am still focused on the LG thread I came from and quite thankful at times that I am moved on from there. If there is nothing out there that interests you, then make something, or post something about an app that you tried and liked. There is no viable reason to go to the new leak, and obviously we would prefer stability over what's new and "improved." When an Att version of ics comes out you will see a flurry of activity again, and I am sure mhx will then work on another great rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dakpluto:
The big key to activity won't exactly be the AT&T drop of ICS, but when Sammy releases the source. Soon as the source is out there, things can go nuts. We can start getting some kernels going and that will help a ton.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] markapowell:
+1 for kernels
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MattWeiler:
I've been using this ROM on my skyrocket for the last few weeks and love it.

My phone is unlocked and running on the Telus network, up in Canada; this was originally a Rogers phone.

After installing 5.1 I did have to revert the SMS app to the one from 5.0 as images were not being downloaded.

My only other issue is that some apps from the market won't install now ("this app isn't compatible with your device") but it worked when I had stock gingerbread and works on my captivate running CM9 (another ICS ROM).

Aside from the 2 above issues, this ROM is amazing :)

Thanks for all your hard work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tman23:
I must say that im running this on my AT&T galaxy note and its running amazing im getting around 31 hours of battery life out of it on medium to heavy usage depending on the day! Its buttery smooth not to mention it looks amazing! So thanks all who put forth their effort on this rom and keep it up, i kno u will!! :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Tweakecho:
I was having similar issues and was soon to go back to stock :( was annoyed at all the leak roms. My best advice is to check your cwm version. I used the touch cwm first install with dark side wipe and it was a terrible terrible load. Next attempt was the latest non touch cwm and it gave me shutdown and freeze and some fcs. I was reading another thread in related and it talked about all the cwm issues with leaks. I then installed an older cwm and dark side wipe install and everything is peachy keen. Great battery, no issues at all. It is my daily driver now. I get about 18 hours with moderate use leaving me at 20%
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] markapowell:
There are a lot of threads saying cwm and ics don't get along nice.

You shouldn't use it anyways

Battery life is atrocious with it (and I assume even worse without)?

is there an older version for download somewhere? one with the touchwiz launcher and samsung mms and whatnot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] clemmie:
I'm getting favorable battery results by a) turning off sync, b) turning off data unless I'm using it, and c) freezing Google Maps with Titanium Backup. Maybe try that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kidspuddy:
Well I've been using this for a while (5.0) and now my sd card gets recognized as blank and won't mount. Also the shutdown bug came back.

I just want to figure out a way to backup my info/apps and redo everything. Any fix for the sd problem so I back up.

I have been using UCLD roms for over a week and came back to Superlite. I could not find one that did not have occasional app slowdowns and wonky data, and most annoying were the tethering problems that require you to reboot every time you tether or else be subject to really wonky data.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kidspuddy:
And do what? Most of my apps I cannot access either since they are on the sd.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kidspuddy:
okay connected it, the external_sd folder is still blank.

What's the best way to go about backing up my app stuff through usb connection? Do you think it would be best to upgrade to 5.1 or possibly move to the nexusmod beta 7?

I guess I'll have to reformat my sd card, sucks, I just took a hell of a lot of pictures of the black keys this week and now i'm going to lose them all. :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
I dunno man, I guess it got wiped. That sucks, don't format it yet. I was told about a recovery a while ago, but I don't remember what it was. Try google searching, bro.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kidspuddy:
Yeah I'm trying out this program called ZAR. Running it now, hopefully I can at least recover those photos!

Wierd though, I bought the damn sd card just for this reason and that's the thing that fails! It's a class 10 16gb sandisk too, from which I've heard is not known to fail as others.

Hmm. I'll let you know how it goes!

Good luck, SanDisk is a good card. Not sure what happened.

What version of cwm are you using?

I recently had my external sd card randomly get wiped by an earlier version of cwm touch. Used wipe data/factory reset on it close to a dozen times with no issues. And then it randomly started formatting my external sd card. Dunno wtf happened...

EDIT: I think I have the same sd card as you...

ZAR worked great. It recovered not only my photos I wanted but EVERY single photo on the sd card. Basically all the cache photo images from all apps. Which for me is a crappy thing because I have to cycle through all the BS to find the stuff I want. But most of them are grouped together since they are taken at the same time.

But it worked! Now to reformat and flash the new stuff to my SR and hopefully won't have this problem again!

EDIT: Funny. The last photo I took of the keys, basically was the last photo it recovered was a whopping 3.86 gigs BEFORE I skipped the file because it was taking to long. It was a blurry crap photo anyways so I skipped it. But that's pretty weird it would stack on the gigs of data to one photo!?#?

I am also not able to get camera to work. It only opens to blackness. Then after awhile it says WARNING:Camera Failed. I keep trying different ROMS to see if the error is ROM specific. But its not. Its happening with this superlite 5.1 rom, too. I have wiped, and rebooted, and wiped and reinstalled several times. the camera will not work. any ideas??:confused:

hey does anyone know when or if MHX will be updating his superlite rom i have been flipping back and forth from Superlite 5.1 & Sky ICS latest. i have no problems from superlite 5.1.

Hi all,

New to forum, and to the SGH-i727. Recently retired my Nexus S, and now learning the ins and outs of this new(er) phone.

Right out of the chute I flashed this ROM after reading all the posts here, and the installation went flawlessly.

Beautiful ROM, fast and smooth. Thank you to the OP for the hard work, I hope to enjoy more of your improvements.

Stevie
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] darkcurrent:
I'm wondering the same thing too...

I prefer superlite since sky ics has quirks... but the minor quirks that superlite has still makes me switch to sky ics every once in a while to see if it's better.

so far, I'm liking the AOSP style of superlite more and it still seems to be more stable, so I'm hoping mhx will keep on working at this base, or the next base.

come back mhx!

Also, I'm having problems with searching my emails. there's no search option in the stock email and that's a pretty big deal. anyone having the same problem?

also, after restoring superlite, I can't change my lockscreen wallpaper... it just fcs every time I try to change it from the stock purple one.

thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lilwill2806:
darkcurrent,

I've found that when i flash back to MXH Superlite i always darkwipe first, then reboot into recovery and wipe data/factory reset, then format system under mounts & storage, then wiper davlik cache. reboot into recovery and then flash superlite 5.1 let it settle for about 5-10 mins. pull battery out and reboot normally. again wait for 5 mins then login into play store, complete updates, then reboot into recovery one last time and flashed 5.1 patch.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dakpluto:
MHX had posted in the NexusMod thread that he was gonna run that one for a while because he didn't have time to work on this. Didn't say if he would have time again in the future. I hope he does, he does amazing work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] andTab:
I concur.

this is a super-nice ROM.

I would only like to see two things get fixed:

1. battery life

2. AOSP wifi and USB tethering

Otherwise, this ROM is perfect!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Blairware:
Baby come back.

Yeah, I check this thread almost daily as well, looking for signs that mhx is working on this or a UCLD2 base ROM. There are so few ROMs for SR, though what we have is really good. Been bouncing back & forth with UCLD2 ROMs Sky ICS and Nexus MOD, but this was soooo solid!

It really just needs a shave & a haircut & we will be rockin' I know folks get busy, but when you're the best... well mhx, your fans await you! Please? I'm not above a little begging! :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rpr69:

Serious LAG

Is it me or is there a serious lag on this ROM. From the homescreen clicking the Phone dialer icon takes a good 5-10 secs to open the dialer. Then clicking the log or favorite contacts tab takes another 5-10 seconds or so.. This almost makes the phone useless.. Anyone else having this problem? How to fix it?

Can't say I ever had that issue. Of all the non-AOSP ROMs I ran for ICS leaks, this was by far the fastest for me.

I am loving this ROM. Benching 3600 Quad/6500 Antutu as a reference. VERY snappy with RomRacer's stock kernel. (Not overclocked or tweaked with a governor controller)

Really clean looking, very fast, and ICS? Probably the most stable ICS ROM out there for our phones.

I started using the ROM on 5.0 and I have tried a few others :D (haven't we all), It is my daily and it is awesome!! it has no problems that i can find, that Stock roms don't have. I won't change again till MHX updates or has a new one! (assuming he doesn't get the SIII) I simply love the Stability and quickness.

Where did you get romracers kernel and how did you flash?

Twrp does not refer to ANY recovery. It is a specific recovery.

The recovery included in rom manager is a totally different recovery often referred to as CWM.

I suggest you read the threads in the development section in each recovery. They are clearly marked.

I have come to the conclusion, that there is going to be **** that just ain't gonna work with the leaked release MHX is working with.

The apps that don't work, I delete them. I bought both TIBU and Mybackuppro. So if one doesn't work, I use the other one. If they both blow, I install from scratch. Yeah it takes longer but if I want it to work, that's what I try. I'm at a 90-95% state of what I want out of my phone, that ain't bad.

MHX has done his damnest to get a solid release. He has no idea what you have done to your phone previous to flashing his ROM. So just consider maybe there's **** that ain't gonna work. And it's a damn lot better than stock.
