[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mjwhirly:
absolutely loving this rom so far, had a few force closes with gallery but froze it and use quickpic which is a million times better, and battery life on this is ridiculous for a cm rom, after using it all day which included over a hour of screen time, many pictures and mms, and a good amount of browsing the internet im down to 68%, which is only because for some reason battery use is showing that dialer used 32% which seems a little weird, does anyone have a clue why its doing this or a solution to it??? Could i possibly freeze the dialer and use a third party one such as exdialer or do you think the problem is something else to do with it??

Anyone thinking of downloading this should definitely follow these steps for a clean, fast and great battery life experience...(if coming from an ics rom)

1. Boot into recovery and use darkside wipe

2. Wipe batterystats

3. Flash rom

4. Let it boot and sit around like 10 mins then set up phone

5. Reboot to recovery and clear cache, dalvik cache and then fix permissions

6. Run the phone hard all day, and if towards the end of the day you still have a good amount of battery left download the app juice offender, and run it until it drains almost all of your battery ( i recommend turning of flash every 20 minutes for a few minutes so you dont burn out the bulb, then turn it back in when it cools down)

7. Recharge the phone

8.Enjoy :-)

*only problem i have is the one i stated above, no other force closes or lag

Tethering actually works on ucld2 after flashing the kernel.zip, it messes up auto ratote for me though, so I just turned it off in settings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] eugene373:
Here's the Gallery Fix, it pull both pic's from the internal & external sd & work faster than R4 did...

Gallery3D.apk

I found that deleting all screenshots great improved speed of gallery for some odd reason.

App is just the .apk & need to be dropped in the r5 .zip or pushed / however you want to add it..

Thank You! Been testing this rom for a few days now no issues for me so now i am going to Odin back to stock and and set this up on a fresh phone.Once again thank you for your work in getting this working
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] eugene373:
tjsooley & I figured out the tethering issue, so R6 will fix tether, Browser Fc / Gallery FC
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bts0uth:
Can't wait.

Another issue that will only effect a few users (including myself) so it isn't priority but the application, "Square Card Reader" doesn't work on this ROM. It detects when you plug the card reader in via the headset jack but when scanning a card it does nothing and gives you no notice a card has been scanned. Not sure what causes this but I have had it work on certain ICS roms and not on others.

I am an on site Computer Technician and have to use this app and wireless tethering on the regular so I have to go back and forth between nandroid backups after I get off work but it's worth it to have CM7.

Keep up the amazing work! So close to being 100% on the Skyrocket!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] eugene373:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
I'm getting sub par battery life on R5. CPU Spy doesn't show anything out of whack, but didn't install batterystats yet to check for wakelocks. Any secrets to extend battery that anyone can share?

I don't want to say poor battery life because I am a heavy user, but I'm charging after about 6 hours versus 9 to 10 hours on my 2.3.6 Samsung build

Thanks for the update Eugene!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] luigic81:

Ics is too slow, this is speed :)

How are you guys getting visual vm to work? I can't restore with tb, it just hangs. Anyone have the apk?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
Heres the Visual Voicemail apk

Haven't tried it though. It's deisgned for AT&T phones but since the buildprop shows t989, it may or may not work

Is anyone that lives in a LTE Zone able to connect to LTE?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
I get LTE speeds on R5. I used APN Backup and Restore to pull in the APNs from a stock SR. Haven't updated to R6 yet, so cant say on that release.

**EDIT**

I'm about to fresh flash the R6 using LA3 modem. I'll update in a bit on that release

---------- Post added at 09:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 AM ----------

weird as hell, but I just got a capcha prompt when setting up my Google account.

Error 462 when downloading an app from the market first time also

Now market FC when launching

Davlik wipe and reflash (no Darkside)

rebooted and hung at CM logo

Back to recovery, Davlik, Darkside, flash ROM, reboot

Booted to homescreen, let settle for a bit, added Google acct (no capcha or errors) and DL APN Backup and Restore from Market and saw all my previous apps downloading. Didn't happen any time before using this (again weird as hell, but it's spose to do that)

Home button not working either

Waited for my apps to finish from market then rebooted again

Everything smooth as butter

Restored APNs and selected the PTA, rebooted

Weak LTE where I am but hit 10 down

Upstream was really weak at 723k though

That was the strangest flash process I've had in a while

something must be screwy with my phone lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tjsooley:
Odin to stock 2.3.6 Flash LA3 modem then flash darkside and modem and rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
Yea, doing that now. That was just weird though. This is the only ROM I've used since I started using it. Almost back to the homescreen for setup though. I'll be in a full LTE area in a while and will post results also
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] luigic81:
Thanks for the vvm apk!

I can't get past the set password screen though it keeps hanging, I've tried clearing data on the app, fixing permissions etc, it still won't take, do I need to do something else? Like. Something with apn settings?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
Try calling your voicemail and entering your 4 digit code and then hang up and try the app again

---------- Post added at 08:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:48 PM ----------

I dont live in a LTE area, but I have a business trip tomorrow to Dallas, TX which does have LTE, does anyone have a link to setup LTE on this rom? It's chaning the APN settings right? I've never had to do anythign with ti before as I live in Oregon
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :
You have to use the PTA APN in order for this to work because of the sock that it uses to connect.

One thing I've noticed is that using the dsp manager bass boost at louder volumes causes garbage audio.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
Try uninstalling the app, reboot to recovery and wipe dalvik, reboot, reinstall, fix permissions, reboot, then setup again

Long process, but it works for weirdness.

Eugene, are the bugs listed in the op up to date or have most of them been fixed?

I'm Dallas, wow lte is fast!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
Please don't take this post out of context, read it for what it is.

I averaged between 6-7 ours battery life from a full charge to under 10% in a normal day when running this ROM

I averaged between 10-11 hrs running 2.3.6 GB that I built running the exact same apps and usage

I averaged between 8-10 hours running the LD2 leak running exact same apps and usage

I know that CM has always been lower in the battery area for me, but I'm trying to get a grasp on what it is that really causes it. It can't be apps or usage because I use my phone the same every day for work, music, 3 email accounts, etc. Can it be that it simply boils down to it being a Samsung phone that performs better in the battery department using an actual Samsung ROM or is there something else that causes it? I never get a full day from a charge and I'm totally fine with that, like I said, I use the phone quite a bit. Just wondering if anyone has any solid information what would be the root cause for the heavily decreased life when running CM. I had the same experience with the Captivate on CM vs Samsung ROMs. This isn't a bash or a shot, it's me trying to find an answer that I haven't been able to for over 2 years now. I can even remember on my old G1 the same thing happening, so it goes further back. Like I said, please don't take it out of context, I'm really looking for some viable information here. I love this ROM, I just want to find a way to get some better battery results.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Sublim3_Tilt:
Since I got my Skyrocket ive pretty much bounced back and forth between Sky ICS and Alien Roms, but seeing that the CM is starting to pick up has got me pretty Tweaked! I came from a Captivate with CM7 Skanky Kanged and hope like hell I can get this Skyrocket to do what my Cappy did and then some! I used to get 10+ Hours of Battery out of my Cappy with CM7 with Moderate to Heavy usage. Is the Bug list in the OP up to date? Looking forward to switching to back to the Wonderful CM World, let me know if I can help in any way!

Have yet to try CM on my Skyrocket and hope the Bluetooth stacks are Bluez and the TV Out with the MHL adapter works.... I miss playing my emulators on the big screen with my wiimote and ps3 controllers :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tjsooley:
tv out and mhl doesn't work but BT works (I use A2BT buds at the gym)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
@mindmajick

I've tried setting to conservative and still get short life. I appreciate your suggestion though, thanks :) If you have any others, let me know.

On the Captivate, I could get to a good 8-9 hours using CM, but that was long after it matured to nightly status (sometimes more, but not often). I know this is in infancy stage, so I'm not complaining at all. I'm sure once CM9 drops, I'll go that route and just suck it up till the battery life increases. I'm actually coming back to this ROM today. ICS is nice and all, but I prefer the speed and cleanliness of CM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Sublim3_Tilt:
Even with the Samsung Bluetooth Stacks most headsets worked for me, It was the PS3 and Wii controllers that weren't compatible. Devastating blow with the lack of TV Out, but I don't use it all the time. It was one of the last bugs that got worked out on the Cappy as well :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tjsooley:
Yea, look on the bright side. We are officially supported for CM9. They are working on it as we speak.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
This!

Being officially supported simply rocks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mindmajick:
Undervolt? Underclock? Umm... have you tried fully charging then wiping battery stats? Hmmm...

Btw- totally agree with you on the ICS madness... it's been wizzed on too much :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
I may do some UV to see if that helps.

and yes, the ICS madness is crazy. It's cool for a few, but its still skinning a Samsung ROM and adding a bunch of mods. Only thing I really miss is the way Samsung does the slide to text / slide to call in the Contacts. Everything else I can do just fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mindmajick:
Running -25 undervolt now... seems stable.. will report back with battery life..

sent from my i727 running cm7. It thinks it's a t989 ;-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] R4INS:
Let me start by saying great work, I love cm7. As this is my first android device I'm not the most skilled with some aspects. Since I've always used Samsung based roms I've always used their task killer or now the ics hold home and swipe. In cm7 I tried advanced task killer but it didn't seem to be doing the job as apps wouldn't close or seem to open themselves back up.

Also for some reason my contact pictures weren't showing up in text conversations, the where in the conversations list, but not within a thread. Only mine would show in thread. Not really a big deal but would slightly annoy my anal ass.

Any better recommendations on killing apps? I know some people say dont kill apps buy I notice my battery going faster if I don't.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droid512:
In regards to battery that is the only reason i stopped using the cm7 roms, i haven't even tried this one yet because im sure its not all that different in that aspect...

Eugene, have you looked into the cm9 github with top, it would be awesome if you and sean jumped on that ship
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
What kernel and OC/UV app are you using? CPU Control says kernel not supported for UV
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] R4INS:
I'm notoriously brutal on battery. I'm fully set up and fully charged. Will report back after I abuse it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Uncle Irish:
I don't want to turn this into a battery thread, but I am going to let settle today and give specifics tomorrow as well. With two different users giving info, we might be able to share config/settings and come up with a few things to squeeze some more life out.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pcdebol:
Loaded this ROM with the Rex_mod_La3 modem and it is working flawlessly. My battery seems to be doing better than it has ever done running cm7 on other devices and it's definitely getting better battery life than the last ROM I was running. MHX superlite 3.1

Great Job I am so glad to have a stable CM7 to run on my device again. Thank you for all the work. Maybe my little goof forgetting to put the LA3 modem back to stock will turn out to be helpful in some way.

I haven't noticed a difference in either actually. Good or bad. They both run rock solid for me. The only bug I have is the YouTube rewind/fast forward button. But that's a minor annoyance and not a big deal to me. I don't use YouTube THAT much.

So update or not you are in good shape. Next wipe though give rc7 a spin.

Thanks again Eugene, cm7 rocks. So does miui, but I need Facebook. Hopefully updates will continue on that as well. I can't make up my mind and flash back and forth lol.
