Hi !

EFS was fine.

first thing i checked, (i got multiple backups :)

And i managed to finally fix it ! ! !

dont really understand why this worked in adb and not in the TWRP recovery install menu to flash zip.

phone to worked in adb at recovery mode.

ran this command.

dd if=amss.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13

dd if=mdm.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17

it´s same line from the basband script. (- /tmp/ folder) and i got my old i9210xxlj1 baseband is back.

Files are from the i9210XXLPJ_I9210COVLP5_COV odin flash file.

Happy :)

You can technically run the Post 0424 Kernels from both Talustus & myself with any CM-10.1 SR Rom also Post 0424

But, again, *it is not advisable*

At least if you are running the gear which we know is built specifically for our phone, then if any issues arise, we can correct them easily enough. But if you are running a different ROM, we can only help in a limited capacity

All my kernels are available from: http://www.spice.net.au/sgs2/GT-I9210T/nutterpc/Kernels/ (Big thx to Ecips for the hosting space)

There is 2 current kernel builds I am working on. Directory 1 will contain STABLE kernels (ones that have proven to work with little/no hassles) and Directory 2 contains CURRENT (Means a kernel which I may be testing out things on, or currently updating with latest patches from Upstream)

As always, you know where to find us if you need any help. Its on IRC :)

So my phone just blacked, it's totally unresponsive. Not even the power button/battery pull combo is working.

I was running CM10.1 just fine. Am I bricked?

EDIT: It's black still, but responds to USB when I plug it in. Windows 8 makes a little chime. But nothing is happening.

Does anyone have a link to the stock baseband, or the updated one Tal was talking about? I'm having some trouble with the ecips ones all of a sudden, and can't connect to Telstra anywhere.

Actually never mind, I downloaded a few others and I have connection again :)

Thanks for you response... Also, thanks for the link to the new kernel... Why is it not advisable to install a newer CM10.1 base Skyrocket ROM with the new kernel? Are the differences in the ROM's more than the first 2 lines in the "updater-script"? What are the risks?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nutterpc:
Its due to the fact if you encounter issues under a skyrocket ROM, if any changes need to happen to source, a it is not built by us, we cannot assist

Been trying to update slimbean to v6 from 4.2 (skyrocket rom) but 5.5 and up and i got no wifi, Wifi works as detects networks but does not establish connection. Might be rom related but non of the skyrocket users seems to have this problem. Is any one else noticed this with later cyanogen builds or got a way around it? Like wifi drivers. Dreamkernel wont boot with the later rom but demonkernel will, on the other hand demonkernel wont boot with 4.2 but dreamkernel will.

Guys please keep in mind that not all devices work well with same settings (performance gov will not give u a highscore at all). U need to find a top setup (gov ioscheduler etc) your self for each device.

At all i'm running interactive gov deadline iosched and 1512 mhz stock max mhz and i'm reaching scores of ~9000 -9500 on antutu with this setup.

Also the stock sgs2 will not beat the gti9210 at all.

its only the mali gpu wich works much better then the adreno on gti9210.

But the qcom cpu is much more powerfull then the exynos...

I finally got a chance to play around with different ROM's... I tried the 6-07-2013 versions of CM10.1, Chameleon, and Avatar with the kernel you posted a link too...

Pac-man rom

Hey guys,

as an experiment I decided that I would port Pac-man for our device using Tal's cm10.1 as the base. Well it worked fine :laugh:

There are a couple of things with this port.

1. It will likely need the new baseband (honestly this is really easy to get)

2. I haven't tried but I don't think it will work on the earlier dreamkernels, though you can try. However it works fine on nutterpc's current demon kernel.

3. The upside-down screen thing is still around. Haven't seen it all day today, but it was there once or twice yesterday.

Testing shows that it is still quite quick with scores just under what Tal posted the other day with Antutu.

Another thing is the about section of the phone, prob looks a little dirty...but I didn't change it that much. Otherwise everything is running fine.

Pac-man

dropbox.com/s/0r3kf21ej48zllb/Pac-man-i9210t-20130609.zip

The kernel

Credits:

Talustus - for the base

Nutterpc - for the released kernel

gs2usr - for the posting of the PAC-Man for Skyrocket
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panther788:
From playing around with it I have found it to be clunky and laggy. It it's also full of minor bugs, but it looks so good. I would like to see more work done on a Pacman Rom for our device. It also gets no reception most of the time and gets little flags off it occasionally
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inner_vision:
Hey panther,

I have noticed a few bugs, playing with it a bit more. Will have to look and see what should be ported over when I get a chance. Very amateur at this, but must start somewhere. Did you get the new baseband and are you using nutter's kernel? I'm not experiencing any signal drops and minimal lag, except for a few conflicts I have to nut out.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panther788:
Yep I flashed both of your linked files. What new baseband are you talking about. I am using the

Lp3 baseband given to us by ecips
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manmantis:
LiquidSmooth ROM for Skyrocket also works well. I found it less buggy than the PAC-Man ROM.

I couldn't get the CM10.1 nightlies to run, and also failed with the SlimBean ROM.

I'm also intrigued to know which baseband you're using.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inner_vision:
Cool, good to hear.

Unfortunately, because I based it off of Tal's newer rom, some of the more up to date stuff is needed. Telstra released a new baseband. So what you need to do is flash stock Telstra from sammobile and then it will update the baseband for you. The guys haven't had any success getting it extracted so it's a bit of a work around, though relatively easy. After reflashing twrp and the rom of your choice again, you won't experience the drop outs on the newer stuff.

Thanks for giving it a test
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nutterpc:
Well the PAC-MAN ROM I'll give it a go on my phone, see how it runs

And I know there is sometimes a small gap between the kernel I run and Tal's, but that is also due to the direction both Tal and I take for our kernels

The current kernel is whats classified as a "Work In Progress" kernel, new patches being applied/tested. It is, for the most part, stable on its own. The STABLE branch is one thats passed both testing by myself and also testing by others and found to be working well, with little/no issues

And if current testing goes well, the kernel in current will be moved over to stable

Not sure what files you have in mind?

Anyway, I remembered after posting that I had moved most of my apps to the SD Card, so I thought I'd try moving some back. I did this for ones which launch at startup (ClockSync, firewall, launcher, etc.) and this seems to have speeded up boot considerably. I'm just not sure why: surely they only start after all the boot activities are in place for the CM logo to disappear?

Kernel noooob

Hi All,

I'm after some quick noob advice please, I'm trying to learn how to build kernels. I've downloaded the ICS open source kernel from Samsung and attempting just to compile as is. I've read about the MMC_CAP_ERASE bug and I'd like to make sure it's removed. All the info I find talks about removing the capabilities flag from the source file.

Do I simply remove MMC_CAP_ERASE from the following line in sdhci.c?

mmc->caps |= MMC_CAP_SDIO_IRQ | MMC_CAP_ERASE | MMC_CAP_CMD23;

Did some more hunting and found this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=41137653&postcount=718 Which I've applied. There seems to be some argument though as to wether it is required or if it even fixes the problem. Would still be interested in your response.

Thanks for the help

Unfortunately I've been having more and more problems with CM10.1. Always at times when I really need my phone I cannot wake it. If I'm lucky the keys may light up but I either wait or pull the battery out. The other day the camera continually caused the phone to crash...I had to pull the battery out then it would happen again it was extremely frustrating. I do get the upside down screen the script seemed to fix it for a while...but now all these issues feel like they're occurring more often.

I have attempted to use the liquid smooth ROM but I still don't get a network signal. I did load the latest Telstra ICS...it got stuck on boot logo so I needed to do a factory reset and cache wipe through the stock recovery. It also kept rejecting my SIM PIN and finally accepted it? I will try the pac man ROM but failing this it looks like I may have to go back to 4.1.2. Love to hear about any other ROM and kernel combos that people have had success with.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m0tter:
Not that it's any help but that's the same experience I was having. Couldn't answer the phone on numerous occasions due to the screen not activating, not being able to use the keypad or loud speaker during calls due to the same problem. Lock screen upside down around 50% of the time. Battery lasting anything from 2 days to 6 hours depending on what kind of day the phone was having.

Don't get me wrong, loved running 4.2.2 and really appreciate the work done by the Devs (and yes I donated). Just a little to buggy still atm for a daily use phone for me.

I've gone back to 4.0.4, battery is lasting nearly three days, I can answer when it rings. I've removed all the Telstra crap and installed a boot animation. Would just like to get the snappy feeling of CM back though.

Currently experimenting with Kernel building in the off chance I can offer some assistance with DreamKernel stuff.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sddurand:
You can dowload the stock files from www.sammobile.com.... After you download extract the file ending in .md5. This is the file you will flash to your phone using ODIN. Here's a pretty good step by step tutorial how to use ODIN here: http://androidjinn.com/how-to-install-dvlp7-android-4-0-4-firmware-update-i9210t-galaxy-s2.html/2

You can always get back to stock with this method....

After this flashes/loads it will reboot your phone. Once it's up and running it should show you have a software update. Simply download and update. This is a stock process and therefore simple, not much you have to do. Once that is done and your phone reboots check the "about Phone" in settings. Your baseband should now read "I9210TDVLP4".

Now you can use ODIN again to load the TWRP.tar file from talustus.

I am running the skyrocket CM10.1 RC5 and the Kernel posted by Nutterpc a few pages back. No delay, No upside down screen, and the best battery life I've seen on this phone (no lie). I have seen a couple freezes downloading from the Market, that is the only snag i've experienced... Note: with all skyrocket CM10.1 base ROM's you need to edit the updater-script... Talustus has described how to do this in this thread. Using windows 7/8 you need winrar and notepad+ to extract, edit, and put back the script.

I hope this helps folks. A big thanks to Talustus for all his work and Nutterpc for posting his work as well! Cheers!
