and i now know that you missed my entire point. i could care less how either of the two run. the quad-core could be the worst running phone in the world and i would still choose it over the dual-core because its different. its not a dual core as i already own 2 dual cores. that would be my whole point in getting it. because its DIFFERENT. as in NOT DUAL-CORE. i dont need to do any research at all. i think you might need to take a look at my original post again. i dont have any issues acquiring devices. if i dont like it. i will sell it and move on to the next as i already do. :D

P.S- Either way. I buy devices that i want. I dont buy devices because users want me to dev for it. So even if i were to get an AT&T version. Good luck seeing my work for it guys. I support too many devices already. I don't get paid enough for XDA. lol.

I am working on a new version of the Backlight Complete for those stuborn phones, that should work 100%.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
Just curious why you guys keep this as a flashable zip, rather than building the changes into the ROM (as it seems like from the posts here that just about everyone who runs auto brightness uses the custom levels)?

To keep it as "stock" AOKP as possible?

Not complaining, as it's certainly easy to flash the zip...just interested in the thought process. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
EXCELLENT!!!

@Task650

I must say that you and all the other devs who spent who knows how many months on this rom and now finally the hardware video decoder works properly, not to mention that most everything else works really excellent too.

CM9 and CM7 were always exceptionally excellent roms, and I would have been using it a long time ago if the avi, mp4 and other divx videos would have played properly with the built-in hardware decoder in the phone without the need for software decoders.

But there are a few issues I am concerned about, I did a clean wipe 3 times as well as formatting /system, dalvik in cwm recovery before flashing CM9 and Gapps.

I did this 3 times in a row just to be sure that I had a clean phone to start off with before flashing.

I could not find a moviemaker.apk or a musicplayer.apk in the system/app folder or in the app drawer after flashing 3 times.

I had to download a freebie video player and music player from the android market so I could test the divx to be sure that it was working properly with AVI, MP4 and many other divx formats.

Another thing I found is the contacts.apk in system/app folder never appears in the app drawer, the only way I could get it to work is to install it and after instal before exiting the installer it gives an option to OPEN which I did and it worked but the app itself never appeared in the app drawer.

(this contact.apk issue is no big deal for me, I use the rocketdial app all the time).

Most likely these issues are due to something I did wrong or forgotten to do I hope! (or perhaps I am getting too old for this) :)

Any help from you or anyone else reading this would be greatly appreciated. I promise to click the big "Thanks" button too!

Thanks in advance.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
if you flashed cm7 you are not on this rom.

as for contacts. it does show up in the app drawer. this is ICS dude. its called "People"

There is no "Music.apk" its called "Apollo"

Play videos through the gallery or get an app from the market.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
re: movie maker

You are right, but I could not find a video player.apk either.

I did find the video editor which is not as nice as the GB

version of the app so I found a modded GB video editor which works fine..

Thanks for the correction

Post #2 updated (This one should flash every setting need for Autobrightness and Custom Lighting, even for those stuborn phones)

To set the minimum value to something lower than 20, set the "Screen Dim Level" to the lowest value that you want. I would not go below 12 though!

REMEMBER THAT THIS WILL NOT WORK IF YOU HAVE JUST WIPED ALL DATA AND THEN TRY TO FLASH THIS IN THE SAME RECOVERY SESSION, YOU NEED 1 REBOOT TO MAKE THIS WORK.

Here is a flashable zip that will set all these values:

re: contacts

The CM7 thing in my other post was a typo error, I meant CM9.

(the one you are so graciously sharing with us) :o

Check in the system/apps folder, you will find a contacts.apk, install it and

before exiting the installer click on OPEN then the installer opens the normal

contacts app and it works fine until you close it.

After its closed the contact app will not appear in the app drawer.

I know all about the people.apk app, it works fine but for me its not really a

good replacement for the contacts.apk.

The Apollo music player is excellent, I just got some nice themes for it.

Thanks for letting me know about it, I thought it was an app for headsets

only......

I have read many posts here about Rom Manager, everyone says its perfectly

compatible with CM9 roms and I would like to use it.

The thing I was wondering about is when first loading rom manager we are

sopposed to "flash clockworkmod recovery" before doing other things in the program.

I am using the fluxi kernel which is working fine for me so I was wondering if I were to

flash the clockworkmod recovery within rom manager would it mess up the fluxi kernel?

There are 2 entries in clockworkmod recovery for ATT SGS2 don't know which one to test with.

Thanks in advance for the the help.

Have a great day
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
the contacts.apk in system/app IS the contacts app (people) on any ICS rom. when the system installs it, it shows as "people" in the app drawer. if you want to edit the string for it to say "Contacts" underneath the icon. be my guest. but it won't change the fact that the "people" app is the Contacts app. so im not sure what point you are trying to make. IT IS THE CONTACTS. if the contacts.apk isn't suitable to you to be the contacts then i would just forget about managing your contacts or using any ICS rom.

IF YOU USE ROM MANAGER WITH THIS ROM THEN DO NOT POST HERE ANYMORE. It makes no difference if "people" told you it was ok to use with CM9. this isn't CM9. this is AOKP. rom manager is DEFINITELY not supported for use with this rom. it causes to many issues like bootlooping and other weird sh$t and has been proven in this very thread before.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xhepera:
It really is the same app with a different name. Trust me.

Rom Manager is buggy as all hell. At least it was when I was attempting to use it a year or so ago. You have to wonder about an app that wants to manage your ROMs but isn't even aware that you have CWM already installed. Most of what I've seen warns people away from Rom Manager as being more trouble than it's worth. It's been known to brick devices.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Hyp3rdr1v3:
Not a completely related question but this talk about the contacts app reminded me of it. I want to place an inverted messaging and contacts (people) app into the gapps folder so that they will flash automatically with each update (via the OTA) but I can't find an existing contacts or messaging apk in the gapps folder to replace.

Closest thing I see in the folder is "GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk" and nothing about messaging. Can I just place the inverted apks in the folder or am I missing something?

Running latest build and stock kernel, to date I've flashed the inverted by uninstalling the regular apps via titanium backup and then flashing inverted in recovery.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
You are right, for a long time now everyone using ICS or Gingerbread roms

and perhaps other roms all say to stay away from it, but before Gingerbread

and ICS hit the scene everyone was using it without a problem.

I have also read many posts here in XDA where people seem to all agree

that if using CM7 or CM9 rom manager has no issues or problems.

I used to use it all the time with Eclair and Froyo without any issues too.

About a year ago I tested rom manager with with CM7 and it worked

just like advertised.

It's actually a really good app as long as your rom is compatible with it.

I just don't know if flashing clockworkmod recovery within rom manager

itself will mess up the Fluxi kernel I am using. I would like to start

using rom manager again if it has no issues with my kernel.

I have already used it to backup and restore CM9 roms without any

issued with this cm9 but I would like to use more of the features it

has built-in.

Thanks for your input.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
yes you can just drop them in the gapps.zip. and just so you know. you're putting too much effort into installing them if you are uninstalling them with titanium before you flash the inverted. its unnecessary to uninstall them. you can just flash right over the top of them and they will be replaced.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
understand this. this rom IS NOT CM9. like i stated before. is is unsupported and no support will be given if you decide to use it and brick your device like most of us have seen before in this thread.

by the way. everything in your post doesn't really mean anything. not trying to be rude but you need to understand that what you used a year has nothing to do with what we are using today. so in short. you whole post is irrelevant.

*1This isn't quite so. RM has been an excellent tool, at times quirky, but so are roms and many other app's. If RM is used (and suggested by the Dev) correctly it is quite amazing. It is widely used in CM7,9 AOSP.

That being said, task has warned about this MANY times for AOKP. Information can also be found on the subject, by clicking the search, in my sig.

*2As stated on this thread READ. If you read, prior to installing RM, you would know why it is trying to install CWM

*3The same could be said about simply flashing your phone. This statement is purly pointless

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xhepera:
Points taken. However, when Rom Manager was suggested for my first Android phone (Motorola Backflip) by the dev who developed a CM-based ROM for it, it caused nothing but problems for me and several others. So "suggested by the Dev" is no assurance of anything. All I can recount is my own experience. I didn't attempt to write gospel.

I'll take your word for it being amazing. As I said, most of what I've seen (perhaps as a result of the ROMs I've been interested in) have warned users against it. For you to say that my statement is purly [sic] pointless is a trifle rude, by the way.

I'd try putting a few tracks on the internal card (preferably fresh from PC or something), and see if they play ok. If so, then you may need to copy everything off the external card, reformat, and copy back (possibly in chunks to see if the media could have gotten corrupted). I had to do the copy off, format, copy back early on using ICS ROMs, and haven't had a problem since. If you're still having a problem on the internal card, not sure.

re: contacts - people app

I just checked and you are right, that's where the people app's shortcut comes from, however if you goto system/app with a filemanager and click on the contacts.apk and start installing it, then before you exit out of the installer click on "OPEN" then you will see what I was trying to say when you click to open it from the installer screen the contacts app looks and works basically just like the contacts.apk found in GB, ICS and even in the Froyo roms.

The peoples app in the drawer when opened as I explained above looks nothing at all like the contacts.apk from within the app installer screen.

Most likely whoever designed the contacts app designed it in such a way to do

just what it's doing and work just as it's working right now and I am certain that

there was a good reason for doing it.

I am 100% sure it's not an error or a bug of any kind.

Was wondering if there are any plans to be able to theme the peoples app

in such a way to match most all other screens on the phone instead of

being white? :)
