If it froze it, then you dont need the APK itself. You sure you didnt Uninstall it? IF you did by accident, then you need to take the APK I attached in the previous post and manually put it into the /system/app folder using Root Explorer or similar. Then set the permissions on that APK to RW-R-R (read/write on owner, and read only on Group and others).

It doesnt need Social Hub for sure. You just need to put the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk file in System/App I believe. Make sure permissions are set to RW-R-R on anything you put in System/App.

Do u have cwm touch or normal? Usinf cwm touch solved my shutdown/reboot freezing issue
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kenneth.Torres:
I froze it with rom toolbox and every time I try to unfreeze and launch it, It cannot be launched.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] geoldr:
I downloaded the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk that was linked way back in this thread, put it into System/App, set permissions to RW-R-R and when I click home and select TW it just vibrates and goes to a black screen, then later says "Unfortunately, TwLauncher has stopped".

And it goes back to apex. Is there something else I can try?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dixit:
Sorry I dont use Rom toolbox to freeze apps so I dont know what that tool did. I normally use Titanium Backup to freeze apps. But in any case just put the APK in the system/app and redo permissions manually (or if you are not comfortable with that just redo permissions from CWM)

That APK should be the only one you need. Another part of permissions is also setting the ownership to root:root which you normally cannot do through Root Explorer, youd have to do it through terminal or let CWM fix it for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] geoldr:
I repaired permissions in CWM and its the same problem. Thats odd. I didn't have this issue with 5.0
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dixit:
Well I just did it myself, threw the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk in /System/App, simply just applied RW-R-R (didnt do the chown of root:root yet), hit home, selected TWLaucher and it worked, no crashing or freezing. I dont have any SocialHub stuff either. Mines running 5.0 with the 3 patches which is basically 5.1 (its just a rollup of 5.0 with the 3 patches).

Anyway you can make a flashable zip? Cause I flashed an aosp ics one from a thread and it worked fine

No. I dont have the time to make a CWM flash able zip. Its easier to just manually inject it into the system/app myself.

Did you wipe cache and dalvik after you flashed the rom?

Anyone who knows better than me: what does "fix permissions" in cwm do?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dixit:
Its like the repair permissions on the Mac OSX. It makes sure all the permissions are set correctly for all files. Wrong permissions cause issues with the base OS when it tries to access something which could have it denied.

Which TW launcher apk are you using? I had no issues in my test 15mins ago. Can you show me where you got it from?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] geoldr:
I got it from one of the very first rooted, debloated-zipaligned from MHX.

Windows says its 1.02 MB (1,074,512) bytes.

MD5: a3ad34c855f63647e127538cf3fc4a30

I tired clearing the cache / dalvik cache and now my phone is having the power off / reset issues.

This wasnt an issue with 5.0 I might just go back to that and install the updates.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dixit:
I dont know what to tell you then. Like your phone got gremlins, I have the same file, and attached it here, this is the exact one I just injected manually into System/App via Root Explorer, then simply set it to RW-R-R, then hit Home, and selected TWLauncher and that was it, worked off the bat, nothing special on my side, again I have no Social Hub stuff, it was actually uninstalled a week ago (not freezed, uninstalled completely).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] geoldr:
I flashed back to 5.0 and TW works. Strange issue with 5.1 maybe. I will flash the patches now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dixit:
Very interesting. I can't answer on why that is. Maybe mhx can explain if there were any other changes in the 5.1 that could cause that freezing issue.

I'm on 5.0 with the 3 patches myself

Dixit
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] geoldr:
Hmm. After installing patch 3, TW stopped working again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dixit:
Maybe it has something to do with the Removal of the TouchWizCalendar.apk. I didnt entirely install this patch myself as I didnt need the 3 APKs in this patch.

This is what the patch3 is doing

---------------------

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p24", "/system");

package_extract_dir("system", "/system");

delete("/system/app/Exchange.apk");

delete("/system/app/Email.apk");

delete("/system/app/TouchWizCalendar.apk");

delete("/system/app/SnsAccountFb.apk");

delete("/system/app/SnsAccountTw.apk");

delete("/system/app/SnsDisclaimer.apk");

delete("/system/app/SnsImageCache.apk");

delete("/system/app/SnsProvider.apk");

delete("/system/app/SocialHub.apk");

delete("/system/app/SocialHubWidget.apk");

set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/system/app");

unmount("/system");

---------------------

The bold line above installs these 3 APKs.

Calendar.apk

EmailGoogle.apk

ExchangeGoogle.apk

I tried Calendar.apk then eventually removed it because my corporate exchange didnt work with it because the native email client wouldnt automatically launch the AOSP ICS Calendar that patch3 includes, it still tries to launch the TW Calendar that doesnt exist and crashes.

I also didnt use the two Email apks because the native email client for me has to be the one from 4.0.4 due to a reverse proxy we use in Exchange at work, and only 4.0.4 fixed that (known issue in 4.0.3)

Dixit
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] geoldr:
I agree with you, its most likely due to the removal of the stock samsung programs. Well at least it is a simple fix to go to 5.0

I g2g to work but at least for now I have it working with TW.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dixit:
Well I dont think it has anything to do with all the SNS or SocialHub stuff because I dont have that stuff, I uninstalled it. My feeling it has to do with maybe the TW Calendar or maybe the Email (which I dont think cause I dont have the Samsung Email client anymore, Im using a similar AOSP one, except one from 4.0.4 as I mentioned.

CWM normal. I've been reluctant to use CWM touch because of some reports of nandroid backups that wouldn't complete or restore. However, at this point I'm guessing I'm stuck unless I install touch CWM and reinstall the ROM from scratch with superwipe etc. thanks all.

Yes for wiping c/dc after rom install - I always do that although I confess I'm a little skeptical of the triple wipe techniques and I don't practice that (there's a bad pun in here somewhere).

If I wanted to create a flashable zip for people to use for an easy fix, how would I go about doing so? Do I just zip up my /etc/hosts file? What else would I need to do to get the zip to overwrite the existing hosts file on their Skyrocket? I am off to read more on how to create a flashable zip since I have never done this.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] markapowell:
Welcome to Android 101: your Android is a very smart phone, if you open one program, and then another and another, to play around with different things, it will learn this and make ram space for various programs that you want to run. This "reprogramming" that your phone is doing is chewing extra battery. It's one of the reasons you don't want a task killer, because you are interrupting this process. Your phone takes about a week to reorganize itself to your needs.

So you always want to give it a couple days before you complain about any battery life.

I had an experience on my LG, my battery would last me 6 hours, everyone else was running 12 on heavy use. I went completely back to stock, then went directly to the rom I wanted to use, rather than the several I tried before finally settling. After a couple days I was up to 10 hours. I had figured this and it was never disputed: I was running a portion of two different roms, which was chewing up my battery.

Now Mhx went through something similar where his phone didn't really feel like flashing anymore, and parts of certain flashes were sticking.

We tell you to give it a couple days because if all your programming is running smooth, then it tells us that something similar, to the above, maybe happening.

As far as battery stats goes: in cwm, you have an option to wipe the battery, it will wipe the battery program like it's never been run, and that is what battery calibration kinda does.

That will be awesome!. I tried messing with this but only got it half working last night. I compiled the SystemUI.apk with the new circle battery icons but I noticed that sometimes it would show on the screen and ramdomly the original battery icon would show.

Looking at framework-res.apk, I see it also has battery icons. Looks like we need to modify both. But a good bit of posts on XDA seem to only say SystemUI.apk which confused me since I see the stuff in two different apks.

In am going to give app2zip from the market. It let's you select all your apps and makes a flashable zip. So in theory, we could just flash this one zip after doing a full wipe install and have all our apps back.

I have had and used Titanium for a long time but it always seems hit or miss for me. Many times when I try to restore a backup from Titanium something goes wrong. So, just thinking this will be a good alternative method.

Warning, I have tried a restore using this method yet. Just thought this might be good info for all of us using this rom since it's full wipe on each new version.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] M0D1441:
The restart and shutdown bug will ALWAYS be there, regardless of ROM until someone decides to use about a hundred dollars worth of coffee and go ape **** on the culprit behind the issue. I was thinking, that maybe the leak has a mental disability and when you flash a different or even a newer version of the same ROM over another the android system process that logs the report of the shutdown gets confused due to the fact a small factor has changed since the initial complete clean install of the ICS leak (the shutdown process logs the status and properties of .apks and /system files before they shutdown so it can check for corruption on the next boot, even an extra byte tacked on the file will make the process call for a red alert). the problem is, is that this .so or .rc file or whatever is a f***ing rogue cockroach file that won't delete it's self when a new ROM is flashed and what not, therefore confusing the shutdown process and stressing the hell out of it, causing the process to commit suicide and therefore you get stuck on the infamous powering off screen.

Just my $0.02...more like $10.

the reason this doesn't happen on the stock one clock Odin is because the files don't change, this issue only appears when you f*** with the /system partition, aka..flash a ROM..

I believe the rw/ mount issue is related too.
