Well instead of complaining try and read a little ffs. If you have no APN you need to create one manually with your service providers APN. I am running TOTALLY stable with 4.2a update a-9 on seans other ICS rom. Sounds like you have no idea what you are doing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :
lol ha

I duno wut i am doing, nou

here is what i have done

wiped 3 times, data, dalvik and system

installed

freezes

i then learned i had to clockwork update and use darkside wipe WHICH erased my GB rom

then i installed it sucessfully

ran busybox

installed the update

fixed permissions which freezes in the middle

there are no APNs by default and that will take forever to enter

capiche?

OK, so I replaced stat_sys_data_bluetooth.png with a resized tw_quick_panel_icon_bluetooth_on.png from your file, and it looks pretty good when BT is not connected - see screenshot below.

For now, when BT is connected, it changes to the black BT with the blue oval.

They didn't, but I think it's more common than you think... There's a few other people that have had this issue that I've talked to. At&t basically just asks a bunch of questions and has you go through some troubleshooting and they make sure the phone isn't damaged or been wet. If they can't figure out a way for it to be fixed in your hands they send you a replacement. This is definitely a hardware issue and no changes in software, radio, or kernel will correct it. My spanking new rocket will be here in four to six business days. My warranty expires in December, so hopefully my replacement phone holds up better than this one did(I've only had it for two weeks...)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mahausrath:
Its pretty common in the refurbs, when they're reworking the phone it doesn't get top class techs... 99% of the problems I hear I can tell you are cold solder joints. Not really samsungs fault, in order to make any money off a 20 dollar refurb they can't go throwing 20$+ techs on it. In my experience (prior Samsung engineering tech)

And the replacements they send out are usually pretty nice, that's why I have two now ;)

DSP manager/Wifi in Zmod

Was curious if anyone got DSP manager to work on d9. I cannot seem to find one that doesn't FC/actually change anything with equalizer and BT.

Other Question is can anyone confirm that the WIFI tether in the Zmod folder is working for them? I have it all set up. States that it turns on, but I see no wireless networks available at all. Changed SSID. Tried different channels. Am I doing something wrong? I installed through file lib.

I may be just doing something wrong, and though I haven't said it other thank clicking the thank button. Thank you again Sean for all that you do. Rom, music, and all.

Now.. About the attachment..

It seemed redundant to me to press power, select a power off or reboot option, and then have to confirm that option.

Just a tiny edit to framework.jar to bypass the confirmation requester.

what is the difference between the goomail and the stock email?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mahausrath:
misread. goomail is just gmail, so if thats all you use (as in don't use exchange for work) just use the goomail base.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] boobah204:
Freeze ultracfg or set it to tethering always off. (I just uninstall it, it really serves no purpose now that the roms are modded to allow tethering). When tethering is set to always on in ultracfg, it somehow disrupts the tethering function (whether you do it from the drop down menu, settings, or the zmods widget) and that's why your other devices can't find the network.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
Go into settings, date and time, and set your time zone manually. Once you do this it should return to normal time in your status bar.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] veebomb:
I use an app called business Calendar and have since removed the stock calendar app with Titanium backup.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Face Of Boe:
Tried that one, but it's one of those things where I'm used to one exact app.

I was going to try and restore it from an older nandbackup using tibackup, but there are 2 calendar apps in there, and I'm afraid of screwing things up.

Edit: never mind. I backed up the existing calendar apps, deleted the ics one, tried restoring the old one from a nbackup, but nothing happened.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mahausrath:
I'm pretty sure we were not using it until update 5ish? should be in the changelog! Actually, someone else posted a link to Zx2 not too long ago, rev1val was the name. It was on the 29th of april? or the day after maybe
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] odeccacccp:
Thanks,

Change log only for latest base and updates starting from 7.

According to rev's post #2225 we started using Dx2 with seven I think... Thank you by the way for pointing the links out.

I don't think in About Phone it will tell me which base is or does it? (I hove it backed up, but running different right now, that's why I am asking)

If still not working.

Go to Sett. un-check auto time zone, pick the one that will show the right time, check auto time zone again.

call yourself, then check voice mail press and old 1.

Wait 5 min.

Put Aeroplane mode on, and off

Reboot.

If still does not show a notification on the bottom after reboot Time and Zone updated, then just re flash the radio in Recovery.

I wiped Cache/Dalvik, reflashed the update, fixed permissions, flashed regular dialer, fixed permissions so hopefully my battery issues are solved. I also uninstalled any app that I do not use to cut down on them running in the background.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
I did the exact same thing and got the exact same result. So what I did was reboot into Recovery, cleared cache/Davlik cache and restarted.

Then when I went to the Play Store I was able to download and install Gmail just fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
Reboot into CWM and clear cache partition, dalvik and run fix permissions. Boot back into Android and try to download from play market again. Or, as stated, flash one of the gmail addons from OP..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Locoman_:
Thanks for the tip. I ended up restoring a nan since I just made one yesterday. -I didn't even think of reflashing the app as ugkbunb suggested.

Next time I'll just clear both the caches.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
Not a problem. I considered flashing one of the zip files from the OP but sometimes I just prefer to get the app straight from the horse's mouth (e.g. the Play store). Clearing both caches enabled me to do that.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Raudel
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
A general rule of thumb, always, at the very least, wipe cache partition and Dalvik cache, as well as run fix permissions. Even if it is only a minor ROM update.

I am trying my best to remember, but I "think" the d-9 update required a new base build, which, in effect, would require a complete set of no less than 3 Data wipes and 3 System formats before flashing the base build. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

And please take the time to read the OP very thoroughly, and read through the thread a bit before posting a question.

Thanks ..... HTR

I just checked the OP myself and found that the D-9 update did in fact require a new base, therefore, a complete set of the 3 data wipes and formats is required before flashing the base of choice, then clear cache and dalvik, install d-9 update then fix permissions. There are a couple of other steps involved as well that I am not going to outline here, why re-invnt the wheel? So please just go read the OP very closely, I did and it was easy!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sulaimanhakh:
I'm currently running SKY ICS 4.2D --ZX3, im pretty sure thats the latest base....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
What does it say for build number in your settings -> about phone?

Mine is Sky ICS 4.2D-9

Oops, nevermind, that does not show what version of base you are running. Apologies.

EDIT #2 - Mine is Sky ICS 4.2 D---Zx3-GOOMAIL.zip

That is the latest base build for the Gmail version of the base.

Another thing, I did have a version of the base build that was named "Sky ICS 4.2 D---Zx3-GOOMAIL2.zip", notice the "2" after the GOOMAIL part of the name, but that was a version of the base that Sean quickly replaced with the one I mentioned above because of something being not right with it. I can't remember what the problem with it was though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mahausrath:
Indeed, it did change, twice actually. You may as well redl the base just in case you got the first batch... and make sure your flashing the busybox before restarting and after flashing base! that is a very important step. Like HTR said, you just gotta follow the op to the T and you should be fine. Worst case scenario do the same thing again, starting from the beginning.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] artbybart:
You mean when you hit the contacts and phone icon to dialout, is that where you're noticing a lag? I noticed the same thing when I choose the phone and sometimes contacts. It's a minor lag (extra milliseconds maybe). However, when I try it again it's back being zippy. It's not that bothersome to me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] deezhemi:
Not exactly. Goomail uses the AOSP google pop/imap/exchange client instead of the Samsung version. The exchange security is also disabled in the google client. Both bases have a separate gmail client.

I personally use the goomail base because the google email client looks better when you change the LCD density. The Samsung client I'd built for the default seeing and doesn't scale when you change it. However the Samsung client does support more of the exchange meeting request functions like removing meetings from the calendar when they are canceled.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Locoman_:
Interesting, I just checked and mine isn't sticking either.

I've been getting an lte connection but sometimes it drops out to 3g speeds when I know I'm in an area where I should have a strong lte connection.

I'm going to try once more and see if perhaps I made a mistake before...

Edit: I went through the steps and have ATT LTE again but I'm not sure how I lost it in the first place.

In Titanium Backup, set it to System App

In the app, select Disable Check for ICS

Delete all APNs

Create the ATT LTE APN again.

The one error is that even as the only APN, after a restart the system still doesnt select the LTE APN, rather it seems to have none selected. Anyone know how to force a selection? Is there something in this ROM somewhere that keeps trying to force the PTA selection?

Actually, I just did what I quoted in my last posting and it worked. It got rid of the default APN and now the APN I created is selected by default. I fixed permissions and rebooted and everything seems good to go. Nice!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] RaudelJr:
Thanks for the clarification. it sounds like I want the non goomail base. I need my calendar to fully work.

Thanks a bunch!!!

I'm currently still having another trouble. I went through the "HOW TO INSTALL A MODEM AND GET LTE" instructions. but at the end it says to make sure "ATT LTE" is selected. On my phone "ATT LTE" is not always selected by default after every reboot. The one selected is the default AT&T PTA. Am I supposed to switch it to ATT LTE manually everytime?

Maybe I missed a step in the instructions. There is a line in the instructions that puzzled me, towards the end it says to press the Right bottom feedback button/end INSTEAD OF LEFT. I figured this is a typo. My Right heptic button didn't do anything so I used my left haptic button again in this step.

Am I doing something wrong?

I'm trying to follow Tonyfiore75's steps to get my APN to stick right. but I encountered this problem.

4g and lte are two different things. But if you don't want lte/don't have coverage than no, you don't have to.

Finally LTE!!

lol, you know what's funny is that before yesterday I never really paid attention to LTE talk simply because there was none in my area. Yesterday on my way from work, I saw the little LTE sign light up next to 4G and I lit up like a Christmas tree!! I did a speed test (while driving) and showed 21mb by 9mb!! Not too shabby at all!!! I suppose AT&T will be deploying LTE soon in my area. My question is that will I still need to make those APN mods or just use whatever I'm picking up?

Thanks.
