[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xlr8shun:
Just FYI as i ran into similar problems with OMEGA and SHOStock2 roms, a single exhchange account seemed to run fine, but when i started adding the rest, i had similar issues with it not syncing new mail, and randomly NOT CONNECT to the exchange server in question. everything would setup fine, but eventually the exchange servers would just not update anymore after a couple hours.

if i went into the accounts/sync option in settings, then it would say it synced and would even give a current time, but would never display any new mail. if i went to "refresh" from within the mail app, the account would try to refresh, give an old date of the last refresh and then give the error: "connection error [exchange server name]"

i have not yet tried LilChris's option though, will try that once i get some extra time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
Are you saying that if you included it with the ROM it wouldn't work but if you installed it after the ROM was installed it would work fine?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LiLChris06:
Yea sounds crazy but that's how it worked for many others.

In the early releases when I included I got complaints left and right, when I added it as an addon it worked flawless for everyone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xlr8shun:
i can attest to that (so far)..

i would get exchange issues within 1 hour almost certainly..

its been almost a full 20 hours now and i havent had a single exchange hiccup yet.

one thing that might be worth noting also, i think the app is different that LiLChris uses vs what some of the other devs are using.

i have exchange 2003, 2007, 2010 servers that i connect to..

the options for connecting to 2003 and 2010 (as well as 2007) are the same in the email app that LiLChris uses, such as syncing mail, contacts, calendar (only). 2007 allows syncing of tasks, and i know 2010 allows syncing of tasks and sms, which the email app should detect.

i dont sync tasks or sms, so not a big deal to me, but i did wonder if the actual email apps were different, or different versions, or maybe one was just modded? *shrugs*.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] krackers:
TeamWIN has released TWRP recovery for the Samsung Hercules!

For those who do not know, TWRP is a touchscreen, GUI based recovery, akin to CWM touch.

Credits to the people who put the CWM flashable zip together:

IMPORTANT NOTE: Backups/nandroids made with CWM do NOT work with TWRP. I would suggest installing the recovery while on a stable rom (Gingerbread), making a backup, then installing the ICS roms.

TWRP is also themeable - search around for TWRP 2.X themes and you will find plenty.

To use themes, rename the zip file to ui.zip (if it doesn't already have that name) and place it in /sdcard/TWRP/theme [create the directory if necessary].

If you're looking for a great ics theme, check out my theme at the bottom of the post [based on this.

[Studies show that this does NOT cause bricks. Any bricks that were caused were found to be due to user error/that leaky ICS skyrocket rom. However, as always, exercise caution when flashing roms/kernels/modems/etc...]

[Further, this recovery seems to work as well or better than CWM Touch or standard CWM for flashing AOSP roms (CM9/AOKP). If you plan to flash one of those, you would be better off using this recovery.]

[With this recovery, it does not seem to be necessary to use Darkside Super Wipe/Fix Permissions script. The built-in wipe/fix works just as well.]

What is this :-/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] frescoraja:
SWEETness. i like this recovery a lot more than clockwork mod.. at least the versions i used on the HTC sensation 4g

my favorite recovery was 4EXT or something like that, but team win makes a good one

BTW,

this works on our device, just change the first line of the update-script file to this:

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "SGH-T989" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "SGH-T989" || getprop("ro.product.board") == "MSM8660_SURF");

(or just erase the whole first line)

thanks for sharing!

frescoraja

EDIT:

it's pretty awesome, a touch screen GUI recovery with a lot of options CWM doesn't have.. just make the edits to the update-script like i said above, rezip it, flash it ! sorry i can't post screenshots, no camera besides my phone!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RikkKeith:
I don't think TeamWin would have put up an official TWRP for the T989 if they were still concerned about it bricking our devices based on bad design or coding? In the beginning there were issues with TWRP, but TeamWin made modifications to correct those issues and released the official version.

I don't think it's any harder to use or understand than CWR. In reading yesterday about the person who bricked there device while using TWRP, he was using the older version; and that's too bad he hadn't read or heard about the new version. It is posted throughout many threads hear on XDA, but if you don't follow some of these threads closely (this is not counting most of you who do), it can get buried real quick and your going to miss it. And now the TWRP fear is going around again.

Since the old version is probably still on some devices, and still available for download on this thread, It might be a good idea to have a sticky to educate users so they can make sure they're using the most current version.

I hate to think that people are getting bad/old information about a good recovery. That sketches all of us out.... Mr X (and others) have spent a lot of time talking about the 'Brick Bug' and this recovery. If you've spent anytime reading what they've wrote lately, at least you can make an educated decisions on what to use and how to use it, and not one just based on fear.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
Wow twrp is badass. Flashed the following all in a row last night via the .zip queue:

1.)DS Superwipe

2.)ICS Radio UVLE1

3.)AOKP Rom

4.)Gaaps

Flashed with no issues. Very quick recovery process as well. Full backups are done in under 2 minutes when cwm would take a very long time. Flashing was fast as well, and the logging is a very nice function.

The ONLY bug i've seen is that, ONCE you reset the recovery's settings, you must flash a rom or restore a backup.

Settings > Restore Defaults > Reboot - then you are prompted for a restoration or a flash.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TerrorCandii:
Still have no issues with this recovery, still love it more then CWM. Don't understand all the complaints. I agree with dude above, flashed from Stock, to CM9, and back...no issues, and silky smooth. Sorry, CM9 just has some issues I can't go with right now.

Only bug yet nobody wants to just boot into recovery and test it? Sorry to ask - just wanna see if im the only person or if its common.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TerrorCandii:
If do it from recovery, everything is fine. If you do it out of recovery, it asks to restore from a recovery. I never do anything while running my rom, always from recovery. Doesn't seem like a bug really, just annoying for those who do it from inside the rom...after getting that message. Hope this helps, and answers your question.
