Strange i have not had any problems with Embryo' any problems at all besides this loudspeaker issue, but i think it might be kernal related, but not 100% sure.

Can you post the link to SkyICS?

Remember to follow the instructions exactly as the developer says. When I tried flashing the ROM and update in one sitting, the phone simply didn't boot. It's a little bit odd but once you get the ROM up and running, it's pretty nice.

A lot of the little extras that you can flash work fairly well. I mean, you can flash S-Voice but I don't know why you would, considering the thing comes with Google Now after flashing the update.

Disabled 4G on my Sky-ICS running handset and the battery life isn't too crap. I mean, it's still the S2 4G and the battery life just sucks out of the box with that thing but yeah.

Hi All!!

I have been running the latest (10/10/2012) Unofficial CM10 JB Build since it's release. Besides the random reboots, intermittent echo's and buggy network speed selection, I find it an enjoyable experience. At the end of the day it's a device that has little support (even from it's own manufacturer) and I think the work that has been done, although experimental on this thread, should be recognised.

It's disappointing that there is not yet a forum section for this great phone, a phone that still holds a candle (with the right ROM and tweaks) to the recently released Samsung Galaxy S III and also the HTC One XL.

When I started this thread, I knew little about the inner workings of Android phone's but happily, as many of you have, have risked their warranty just to get a glimpse of any improved performance, battery life and usability out of this device. With that I'd like to thank the dev's that have put their time into this support deprived phone. If they didn't, there would be a few frustrated people with expensive paperweights.

Thanks for reading. End rant.

Regards,

Brian

Hi and thanks for the description, its been extremely helpful.

I now have another concern. I followed the instructions and i think ive done ok but i got to the end and rebooted the phone and now its start logo is a blue ring constantly spinning with 'CyanogenMod" and its just staying like that.

Is there a way i could possibly start again?

This will probably sound stupid but i dont know where to put the file named DreamKernel-GTI9210T-v1.5CM10_RC1

Is there any help you could suggest? Thanks for your help i really appreciate it.

*** INDEX UPDATE 17.09.12 ROMS ICS/JELLYBEAN !!!! ****

we got some work done the last days so i'm proud to announce the first CyanogenMOD based ROM's for the GT-I9210T

thoose roms have been tested bymillers Nutterpc and bjm374 and confirmed to work.

May there are few issues like Camera not working on CM9 (ICS) that can be fixed for sure

We also got a completly different Recovery that works just well so far

it got tested by millers Nutterpc and bjm374 also and confirmed to work

I was stuck on the CyanogenMod boot loop, so I flashed TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project... search for it) and it seemed to work.

Kudos to all who are taking the time to work on this phone. Your work does not go unappreciated.

I'm just going to wait on a more stable release of CM10, So I reverted back to 2.3.6.

I've taken the Stock Firmware and given it a bit of a spring clean.

I did some de-bloating and it's currently sitting around 200mbs I think. If anyone else wants to wait on a more stable release of Jelly Bean, I can upload my de-bloated GB rom for you. :good:

I tried a few ICS & JB CM based roms from the Skyrocket thread. I used the Dream Kernel with them but there was always something wrong. Bugs and issues.

Just follow the ODIN tutorials for flashing a recovery, there are plenty of them out there. The search function is your friend.

Flash TWRP in Odin

Restart Phone in Recovery Mode.

I would recommend doing a system wipe, cache & dalvik etc. Just blitz the lot, worked for me.

Then flash CM10 through TWRP.

Reboot phone, give it about 5 - 10 mins. Should work fine.

Flick through the pages in here, I think it was in this thread when I couldn't get CM10 JB working and someone told me to flash TWRP.

The official update for this handset's been delayed again. Huzzah.

I'm really getting the feeling that it's been truly abandoned by Telstra.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGame316:
I dont believe Telstra is the one abandoning this phone as they have provided the updates to the delay on a regular basis. Samsung are the one at fault. Thats my belief anyway.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwp85:

Yeah. Samsung dont care, the S3 is out now so if we want ICS we will have to buy a new phone.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nekrosys:
Ah, I just flashed all zips that were relevant for what I wanted with Sky-ICS. The developer uploaded a few that got my interest. Changed a few packages here and there and it's all fine.

I did do those steps for Embryo. I dunno what happened to cause those bugs I found on Embryo. I've found no issues with Sky-ICS for now so I guess I'll stick with that, since it's set up exactly the way I want it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i.dustinjones:
My Experience

I thought I'd just show that there is an image that seems to work almost perfectly on this phone (for me):

"h t t p://get.cm/?type=snapshot"

Get the AT&T skyrocket image but flash Dreamkernel 1.7.1 afterwards from dropcanvas or you won't get any audio:

"h t t p://dropcanvas.com/ukiry"

I used this as an update to the cm-10-20121010-UNOFFICIAL-i9210t.zip package and there is no flashing, nfc works out of the box and others so I'd love to know what others experience with this is.

EDIT: Sorry I just realised the flickering image problem is still there but if you don't want to see it on the home screen it appears to go away if you use a live wallpaper.

EDIT2: You'll need to install this with TWRP as CWM errors out on the install due to it being for a different device.

If that doesn't bring back your softkeys, try the method on the overclockers forum. Google i9210t Softkey fix.

Guy's take care and be aware while using that ics 4.0.4 rom from sammobile it will overwrite Your current recovery with a dangerous one wich includes the Samsung MMC BrickBug also the Kernel is completly affected by this bug

PLEASE REMEMBER!! DO NOT WIPE DATA/CACHE IN RECOVERY AND ALSO DO NOT USE FACTORY RESET!!!! IF U BRICK YOUR DEVICE DO NOT SAY U HAVE NOT BEEN WARNED!!!

Still even if u do not wipe in recovery its maybe possible that this Kernel/Rom can Brick your Device in some cases

I have already downloaded the rom and modified it to work on both GT-I9210 and GT-I9210T also working on a custom kernel for that rom wich is safe to use its nearly done ... Expect a first release later today

Is there another i9210T kernel that will work with this ROM or am I left out in the dark until one is released? THANKS!

Ok looks like i found a flaw. Might just be my internet but it can't pick up Wifi everything else seems to be ok.

It searches for an ip address for ages, authenticates then saves but then searches for an address again.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nekrosys:
I had that issue too. Don't worry, it's totally fixable to some extent.

Essentially, just go into the Wi-Fi Settings and (where you enter a network key), tick the Advanced Options box and find the menu (it'll say DHCP by default) that allows you to switch between a static or dynamic IP address. Select 'Static'.

Then enter the IP address you want to assign your device. In my case, it's on a 192.168.0.x network. This may change depending on what router you own. If you want to have a general idea, you can check by (on Windows) pressing the Windows Key + R and typing "Cmd". In the Command Prompt, typing "ipconfig /all". This will give you any necessary information you need.

Enter an IP address on your phone that doesn't conflict with anything on your current network. And add the IP address of your router (gateway).

Add the appropriate DNS servers (it's all in "ipconfig /all")

This should get you on to the WiFi network. I know it sure as hell worked for me!

Just so you know, the Network Prefix length by default will be /24. This is equivalent to the subnet mask 255.255.255.0.

By the looks of things, it looks like this software is having trouble recognising DHCP. Fun times.

Otherwise, it works pretty damn well.

I'm gonna go have a look around. See if I can fix DHCP on my handset. If I can, I'll totally post it ;). There's a few Wi-Fi networks I use fairly often, and I really don't want to have to bother with this crap every single time. I'm sure nobody else enjoys assigning static IP addresses to phones either.
