Hi Guys,

Have the GT-19210T and running the Unofficial CM10 Rom with 1.71 Dreamkernel.

I have a couple issues I hope some of you maybe able to help.

1. Not able to install TWRP. It installs, but when I reboot into recovery it just stays at the Team XXXX logo screen. I use CWM and works OK.

2. Not able to install any other roms. Can't upgrade to any CM10 nightlies. errors in recovery

3. Can't use the CWM Recovery for the Skyrocket. Won't backup properly. Not all files get backed up. Using CWM for T-Mobile Galaxy S2 and use version 5.0.2.6. This backups and restores without any issues. Not able to upgrade to later versions of CWM. They don't work properly.

4. having issues with caller hearing themselves when they talk to me. (echo) I know some of you have this issue. Is there a fix for this?

5. Tried the new ICS ROM from Team Skyfire site. Won't install. Errors loading rom in recovery.

any ideas.

Thanks

Update - Succesfully install TWRP via odin. TWRP won't cache erase. Does Data erase etc but gets stuck at formating cache. Won't install any ROMs either.

Had to reinstall CWM via odin and restore my backup (CM10 and Dreamkernel 1.71.)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snickers73:
I had the same problem with TWRP. Flash the stock ROM on via ODIN. That's the one that you can download from SamMobile. Look for the link elsewhere in forum posts. Once you've flashed the stock ROM then flash TWRP. TWRP will work correctly and format the cache.

I had a lot of issues flashing ROMs with CWM but everything has worked flawlessly once I had the TWRP installed correctly.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drachy:
You have to follow these steps.

1. register on http://www.sammobile.com, navigate to 'Firmware', then 'Firmwares and Files'

2. search for your phonen using the dropdown menus 'smartphone -> android -> Samsung GT-i9210t -> Telstra Australia'

3. download the stock image and flash with odin, be sure to put the file in the "PDA" section and check auto reboot.

4. do a full system reset in the stock recovery

5. re-flash twrp recovery and do another full system reset

6. enjoy your roms, when flashing new roms be sure to wipe system and cache first, then once installed select "wipe cache/dalvick' before 'reboot'

THIS WILL WORK

I had the same problem, followed this and it worked fine, i've reflashed my phone about 20 times now.

Telstra have announced that the official ICS 4.0.4 update has been approved and will be rolling out in the next 10 days. I have reverted back to stock Gingerbread in anticipation, hating it.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalinDee:
Has Mass Storage gone the way of the dinosaur in these builds, or am I just seeing a bug (or am I completely blind)?

When connecting via USB I no longer get any option to enable the connection as Mass Storage.

Kernel:

3.0.45DreamKernel-GTI9210T-1.7.1CM10+

CyanogenMod version:

10-20121010-UNOFFICIAL-i9210t

Would updating to one of the newer releases return the functionality? Apart from this issue I am happy with the build I am running and have no real reason to update otherwise. For me, this version 'just works'
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robpi:
Thanks for the help guys.

Running on the CM10 nightlies and able to update. Great.

The secret was to default the phone back to original Rom via odin. then install TWRP. all works great.

If you update to the CM10 nightlies your will need to install Dream Kernel 1.81 or you won't have sound.

All in all, great experience. love the rom from the boys at CM. Runs fast.

I decided to go with the nightlies instead of the unofficial rom, because I found it would constantly reboot a few times a day.

Got a bit annoying. Haven't found that problem with the nightlies.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nekrosys:
For later CM versions, by default your device mounts to your PC using a different protocol, essentially ridding the need to have to enable mass storage. It should just do so when you plug it in, your PC mounts it as a media device instead of as a USB.

Otherwise, go into Settings > Storage and hit the Menu key. You can select Mass Storage from there.

Hope this helps!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalinDee:
Ahh, yes that'll do the job. Music app is whining about the device not being in Mass Storage Mode so it doesnt want to sync. Will give it a look later on, cheers Nekrosys! :good:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drachy:
That's what i said :P ^^
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nekrosys:
Yeah. I think Google is trying to push the MTP protocol for stock Android and PC connectivity. If you get a Nexus 7, even on stock it uses MTP by default.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drachy:
touchwiz 5?

So you know that official update of android 4.1.2 touchwiz nature ux 5 for the gt9100? Well instead of someone flashing toucwiz over cm10 what is the likeliness of someone modifying this official update to work on the gti9210t? before samsung get around to doing it in about 2 years when everything else is running the 3rd version of key lime pie?

now that would be cool.

It's not like i'm not loving cm10, but i'm hating that i purchased what was supposed to be a top of the line product and the original s2 is being updated faster.

also if such un update exists of the american variants (skyrocket/epic 4g touch) could the dreamkernel from here be flashed on that for the buttons, or is it only for cm10?

cheers guys.

Hey mate. Skyjellybean for the skyrocket together wirh dream kernel 1.8.1 work great for Tour phone. Just search the forum for skyjellybean
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drachy:
I have used that before, the camera didnt work i think the wifi didnt work either, also the dock didnt quite look right, icons were too close together.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Huggogguh:
Hey, why not just search on the forums for a ROM built for one of the variants then just test then with DreamKernel? Make a nandroid backup of course, but after that you've got nothing to lose.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sicHiRsch:
Works great here. Just to remind you, there are two versions of the update. One with 4.2 camera which apparently doesn't work properly, and one with the 4.1 camera which works great. Including 480p,720p and 1080p video. Maybe you tried the wrong one?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drachy:
suggesting maybe trying a rom for the gt9100 and flashing the dream kernel? or maybe for the US skyrocket?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Huggogguh:
Yeah, I'd go with the skyrocket. I'm running the latest nightly with dreamkernel and it works great, so that's probably your best bet :)

I'm running slimjb w/my kernel (2.70)

Works just fine:D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Huggogguh:
Alright guys, I've got a serious problem here. I just tried to flash what I thought was the slimjb ROM for the i727 skyrocket, the one with nightlys that work for this phone. However I realise now that I actually flashed slimjb for the i777 :( now after the reboot from TWRP my phone will not turn on, boot into recovery, boot into ODIN mode, and it doesn't seem to be recognizing any of the hardware keys. I think I've screwed something up epically. Any help would be greatly appreciated guys. Please :)

buy a j-tag, plug it in?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Huggogguh:
How much for a j-tag? Where would I buy one from? And where does my phone end up after the j-tag?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drachy:
I think they're around $50 and they're supposed to restore your phone to factory settings, they also completely wipe all download mode history.

I think this should work, the i9210 is just the european version of our phone to my knowledge, same qualcom processor and everything else. I'm pretty sure the 't' is just telstra.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Huggogguh:
Thanks for that Drachy. Before I go buying one of those, I think I'm going to try a 'Download mode Jig' off ebay, to get into ODIN mode. I'm just not sure whether I've completely brick the phone, or that my phone will not register any of the hardware keys because the ROM I flashed was for a not even remotely similar phone. I'll you know what happens though.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tallustus:
no need to buy a USB Jig that will not help u out

u have destroyed important system partitions

.... i'm sorry but your device is so called "hardbricked" only a JTAG or board replacement can save u now :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirtbean:
Gday mate I did the exact same thing to my first i9210t only I accidently flashed an i9000 ROM on to it. But I did one more thing whilst panicking. After I realized I bricked my device I plugged it into my laptop and I could see the phone mount on my desktop then disappear a second later. I have a mac so I'm not sure what the windows variant would be, but I went into disk utility and when the phone flashed up on disk utility I clicked on it an for some reason the my computer managed to grab and hold it then I clicked on erase. This wipes any and all information. And I mean everything. I then called Samsung and played dumb saying "I was cleaning up the memory and clicked erase thinking this would delete selected files" they said bring it into a service centre and they'll have a look. Did that and thought they'd call me back saying its gonna be a couple hundred dollars blah blah blah so I went out and bought a white one. A week and a half passes and I got a text message saying my black one was ready to picked up. Sure enough there it was free of charge repaired under warranty. So I have both colours now. They replaced the logic board and the screen. And I left with a smile..... food for thought

I wasn't gonna share that with this forum but I felt sorry for you having been there myself. Hope this helps mate

Oh wow. Found out that there's a leaked Touchwiz JB ROM for the Skyrocket.

In other news, trying out the latest CM10 nightly for the Skyrocket on my GT-i9210T. So far so good. Flashed the Touchwiz launcher on it and it runs pretty well with moderately good battery life.

Hey just wondering has anyone tried flashing Gapps 4.2 with CM10?

where is everyone getting the latest nightlys for the dream kernal btw? If you need to volunteer i'll be glad to help
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] therethere:
im with gapps 4.2, all working fine except the cam app. 1080p video recording have some glitches. when i want to record 1080p i just use the old 4.1 cam app instead of the new one.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nekrosys:
Flash the CM nighties for the Skyrocket. Then flash the Dreamkernel for the handset.

http://get.cm/?device=skyrocket

I have tried 4.2 Gapps with CM10. They work fine save for the camera (video recording) . I would recommend ensuring you have a Jellybean (4.1) camera app available for decent video recording.

I'm using it with the 1.8 dreamkernal from this thread. It's awesome! The sphere panarama is fun, altho I have a hard time lining them up. I've not used the video as yet.

The nightly rom is such a massive relief. Ive had barely a single random restart since changing it over. :victory: It is well worth the change!

Some good news for the Australian owners of the GT-i9210T. The ICS update will be deployed today (although I'm guessing it'll be 4.0.4 with the brickbug issue!) for Telstra handsets.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panther788:
Hi, I was just wondering if it is possible to reset the binary counter on this phone, as i am a little worried that if I stuff it up I wont be able to fix it. I am also wondering if you need an ops file to flash the recovery image supplied in post 495. Sick of waiting for Telstra to update this phone!

One last thing, is there a stock ROM for the GT-I9210T in its gingerbread state, as I want to be able to revert to the original if i don't like the new roms?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nekrosys:
Stock firmware (Gingerbread) for the GT-i9210T (including Telstra bloatware) can be found here. You will need an account for this though.

You can also get stock ICS (without the Brickbug issue) for the GT-i9210 (Sweden) here too. It works mostly fine on our handsets, although there's an issue with Wi-Fi (doesn't assign dynamic IP addresses - gotta set it manually) and the camera.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panther788:
Thanks, so you don't know about resetting the binary counter or the ops file?

Thanks again:)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richardw38:
Hi all,

I'm running the CM10.0.0 rom, with dream1.8.1 kernel, but I have a sound problem, my phone will not ring, or play any sounds. I can hear people if I answer the phone, but it wont make any noise at all, ie no button sounds, ring tones, or play mp3 files

Anyone give me any tips to try and sort it out? I really like this rom otherwise
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nekrosys:
Have you updated the CM10 ROM recently? If you did, it will have installed the Skyrocket kernel again. In which, you have to flash the Dreamkernel. See, Skyrocket ROMS without this kernel will cause a lack of sound with our handsets. It'll also get the back button to function as a secondary home button.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richardw38:
Thanks, yes I did re-flash the dream kernel 1.8.1 again. I have tried loads of different options, but it seems that now I can only get sound if I revert back to the ****ty telstra rom, which is depressing!

I've also noticed that audio on the calls only works every second call. ie, I make call 1, I can hear, and so can the person I've called, however, if a make a second call, or receive a call, the person cannot hear me, and I cannot hear the caller, on the 3rd call, we can hear each other again.

Still have no button press sounds, lock sound, ring tones, and media audio under any circumstances.

Any file/settings I can tweak?

I've tried using profiles, without profiles, volume down, then volume up, rebooting numerous times, restoring to me backup,

nothing seems to work except going back to bloody telstra rom.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nekrosys:
What build of CyanogenMod are you using? Have you flashed the latest versions for the AT&T Skyrocket?

Otherwise, there's a pretty decent Sky-Jellybean ROM by Seanzscreamz that I know works fairly well. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1902502
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richardw38:
I am now in the process of starting again.

I have wiped the phone back to the stock telstra, and installed TWRP.

I have now installed this CM10.0.0 version http://get.cm/?device=skyrocket

with the dreamkernel 1.8.1.

Its been sitting on the spinning boot logo for over 15 minutes now.

Shall I pull the battery and try to reboot it?.......

before this I'm not sure exactly what version I was running, I've tried most of them, including the Sky-Jelly you linked to. I always seem to have the same audio issue.

I'll see how this fresh install goes.

Thanks for replying.

Can you offer any other advice? I'm willing to try anything as I really like these roms, Everyone has put in a lot of effort, and its really making this a pretty decent phone.

EDIT: I now remember I was running this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31319717&postcount=495 [ReleaseDate: 10.10.2012] with dream1.81
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nekrosys:
Yeah with the previous one, the CyanogenMod Team greatly modified their software, so there was a point where the Dreamkernel wouldn't work with newer builds. So I think that may have been a problem with your previous CM install.

What I did to get my software up and running is this: Install TWRP, reboot into recovery, wipe system, data, cache. Install CM10 for the Skyrocket (later builds work fine, currently running the latest nightly with no worries), install GApps and Dreamkernel 1.8.1. Personally, I also have the Touchwiz launcher flashed on my handset, but that's just my personal preference of launchers there.

Wipe cache/Dalvik cache, reboot. Wait a little bit and hope like hell that it works.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richardw38:
ok, so I have done exactly this : Install TWRP, reboot into recovery, wipe system, data, cache. Install the very latest nightly CM10 for the Skyrocket, install GApps and Dreamkernel 1.8.1, Wipe cache/Dalvik cache, reboot.

exactly the same issue.

I'm now going to try the sky-jelly again and see what happens.

I installed the official ICS rom that came out lastnight over FOTA. turns out it was 4.0.4. so far battery seems a bit better.

the only issue so far is that ive lost the contact pictures in the messaging app. not the issue thats common where the pics are the default pic and dont show the correct picture, but I mean totally gone, no picture of any form whatsoever, just the contact name taking up the whole width of the screen. I havent done any hard reset yet to im not too concerned till I can be bothered doing that later on.

anyway now that the official rom is out, perhaps someone can use that rom as a stable base.
