The reason that I recommended trying Textplus is that it does not open the stock messaging app and it has it's own built in notifications. This "might" effectively bypass the stock messaging app enough to prevent the battery drain from ever starting in the first place. I do not use the stock app, I rely solely on Textplus for all texting purposes and have never had any battery drain problems from the stock app as a result.

I just converted my wife's Skyrocket from stock 2.3.6 Gingerbread to this last night and she's in love with the smoothness and the features. Even though I've been a SkyICS convert since the Gingerbread versions, she was hesitant. She had been complaining about the bugginess of the stock ROM, but her only complaint so far was the move of the contacts from the dialer. Once I install Dialer One for her, she'll never miss her old ROM again. Sean's ROM rocks, as always!

For a lock screen with all that you can try Go Launcher/Go Locker. There is a theme in there I use to use that had all those on there at one time. But you'll have to find it in the play store. Hope that's helps!

Most likely that would fix the problem. But there is an app called Watchdog that u can set to kill app's once they pass a certain memory.. Maybe that will help with your battery drain problem. Which I'm not having no issue with Sean ROM. And I'm on 4D-10

If it continues I would possibly re-flash everything over.

I tried this just now and its a good suggestion, but Id on't want to have to have a new phone # as my text number, which is what it did. Is there a work around for that or will I be forced to have my friends put a new number in for me in order to use TextPlus

Anyone have a copy of the blue ice clock by chance? Not the "stock" widget, the actually blue clock that has desktop clock. Just flashed back to this after a week or so of cm9 and miss the clock lol...

Nm just pulled from cm9. Anyone wants it let me know!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
That new text number is strictly for texting over your data network with the textplus network, which is very handy. You now need to go into textplus settings and tell it to be your default texting app, then turn off notifications in stock messaging app. Once you set textplus as your default messenger, a new tab will appear in the main interface labeled as AT&T.

Confusing first two posts...

OK, sick of the instability with the other ICS ROMs I’ve tried. Time to give this one a shot, but I want to make sure I do it “right” to ensure there’s no remnants of previous ROMs and that I’m completely up to date with this one.

I’ve already got Clockworkmod Touch 5.8.1.3 installed and it appears to work fine. I already have an ICS Radio flashed as well. Looking at the first post it appears that seanzscreams recommends...

1) Downloading Base, Busybox, 4.9D update, and latest update and put them all on the SD card

2) Enter CWM, clean all caches / partitions, and format x3

3) Install base. Install busybox. Reboot and let the phone sit for a few minutes to settle.

4) Open ROM manager and fix permissions

5) reboot into recovery, clear cache and dalvik cache

6) install 4.9D update

7) reboot, let settle, fix permissions again

8) enter CWM again, clear caches, flash latest update.

9) reboot, let settle, fix permissions again

10) Follow V6 supercharger instructions; fix LTE modem settings, set APN.

Did I miss something?

Thats an easy fix. Dont use that.

Use go sms

go to advanced tab in go sms settings

scroll down to important tips

check the "stock sms uninstalled" box

freeze the stock messanging with titanium backup

now it wont run the stock app at all

They will all eventually end up with corrupt efs partitions anyway. Just stay away from the note modem

Love the team battery app that is included. That is the least intrusive battery indicator so far. Question though, with that app running, there is really no need for the battery icon - is there a way to remove it?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mahausrath:
looks about right... all you really need to do is follow the op to the t, you'll be fine. You can, however, add in a few wipes here and there (I like to wipe chache's 3x everytime the op says to wipe, but its for nothing other than my own piece of mind). I also double flash busybox zip, didn't take the first time I had tried.

Hey, I got a device management notification today on my att rocket? After clicking on okay, it put a notification in bar that stated that it was connecting to device management server.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] TheRomMistress:
So I am new to the Skyrocket community and so far I am loving it and this ROM. I have one question though. I downloaded the non-social hub base so I could use Gmail. I figured the "Social Hub" options would not be in the Account Settings but since they are I want to use them. Only problem is...trying to set my FB & Twitter accts under it will FC Settings. If the option to set them up was not in Accounts this would not be an issue for me but since it is. I have to have 'em! Is there a way to fix this? I need gmail and could care less about pop3. Any suggestions or am I just out of luck?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
I did not suggest doing that simply because I didn't know if TextPlus relied on the stock app in some form or fashion that may cause TextPlus to not receive his AT&T text messages. But if freezing the stock messaging app still allows TextPlus to fully function, by all means, get rid of it totally.

Personally, I bought TextPlus Gold and just sent all of my contacts my TextPlus number and told them to use that for all texting to me. It has worked out great for the past year or so. And I have it installed on all of the Android devices listed listed in my sig and it works like a charm. Every device receives the texts and keeps track of each conversation history in the cloud. And I can pick up whichever device is at hand and send or reply to all of my messages. Very handy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
I'm not saying to use text plus, I don't have experience with that. I use GOsms for this to work. Don't know if it works with yours. Plus, with GO, you don't have a new number to confuse people with.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
Got ya now, it would have been helpful if you had mentioned GOsms in the previous post, or maybe you did and I didn't see it. But TextPlus does send and receive messages with your original number. The ability to send and receive with the added number via your data network is just a bonus and you don't have to use that number if you don't want to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
I did include it as the first instruction in my method, you missed it, lol. Also mentioned using go SMS a couple times in my post

That's cool, I've never tried it, so I could only recommend what I know to work. It doesn't hurt to have more options! My method gets rid of stock messaging altogether, so that may fix his problem better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
It is definitely a benefit to have more than one alternative option. LOL

It would be very nice if someone would come up with an app that would use your original number and use 3g/4g/wifi to send and receive. Then we could get rid of the texting plans that the carriers are getting filthy rich from all together.

Someone made a post farther back asking if poor signal strength was a cause for poor battery life. I want to confirm that it is.

I pulled my phone off the charger this morning at 6am and just put it on the charger at 8pm. Now if I was at work then I would be down to 30% when leaving at 4:30pm with the same amount of usage. I am in a building that has verizon wireless network extenders and it play havoc with att reception. It's constantly searching for service. I turn data off for the most part and I still go home around 30%

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dorj1234:
@Doobysnacks I had an issue with the data part as well. The APNs were restored from backup, I double checked it was all accurate

The solution for me (perhaps for you too) was to delete the APNs and recreate them. Don't ask me why but they looked the same before, and after I did them again data started working.

I assume the reason is that the underlying data-structures were corrupted somehow

So ... write down the APN info

Delete

Create a new APN with the same data and tell us if it worked :-)

Hi Robin...

Don't get it... can u take a min and explain...

Here's what I have tried so far...

A) copy mp3 file to /system/media/ringtones folder - did not work

B) created /sdcard/media/ringtones folder; copied mp3 here...still no good...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] musa13:
Create folder Ringtones and place your Mp3 files inside. Reboot and you should be able to choose your Mp3 files as ringtones.

Hi I'm running this Rom plus updated to v9 and v10 and it still hangs/Freezes on shut down? Solutions?

Don't flame me cause I did a search already and the solution to my problem wasn't really a solution
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Wickidmasshole:
Just a few problems i was having and how i fixed 2 of the 3 issues-

alright first off, if these issues have been fixed and posted already, sorry. i searched the thread and didn't find the answer. so sorry if i missed it-

so Ive been running this rom now for about 2 weeks at least and at first it was running great, off the bat i was getting the reboot/shutdown freeze. i dealt with it. After i wile i was noticing that my USB debugging would not stick no matter what i did and it was frustrating. third, i could not get the coustom APN to stick. sooooo last night i had nothing to do and i said hey, lets reflash and see what happens!

my results-

reboot/ shut down freeze- could not fix this. flashed booth the ROM bases. twice. still froze no matter what. so ive given up on that. if there is a fix for this someone PLEASE let me know. its not the biggest deal but pulling the battery is kind of a *****. :mad:

USB debugging not sticking- simple fix, reflashing the base worked for me on both base versions. i didnt try just reflashing the update so that might work too but for me it is now sticking after i reflashed the base. :D

custom APN not sticking- twice i put in the values, dialed the number, pulled battery to reboot (bc of freeze) and to no avail. i simply reset to default- new apn- and followed all the instructions again- and boom. its now sticking to the custom APN.:D

so sorry for the long message and i hope im not repeating fixes, flame me if you must. and for the record besides those minor 3 issues this rom is the best rom ive flashed to date.

so in closing-THIS ROM IS THE ****, GOOD JOB TO THE DEVELOPER/S and KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Skyrocket2Paradise:
the freeze on reboot happens because you must have used the first odin leak and whenever you wip cache and do not install a new rom with superwipe it will freeze the way i fixed the whole shut down freeze issue and many other bugs i had that were attributed to the first odin leak was flashing back to the stock tar then rooting and then flash up to the zx3 base I now run this rom with no glitches because i wiped all traces of the odin leak with the stock tar
