Not a huge thing...but is it supposed to do a full wipe on every install? It'd be nice if it were just an update, or at least give a little warning.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] c0ldburn3r:
This rom is so close to being my DD. All it needs is BLN on stock sms, extended power menu, and sms removed from the call history and she's perfect!

Hey, do I need to wipe before upgrading from Semi 5 to Semi 9? I didn't wipe when upgrading from stock debloated to Semi 5 and it works...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Sledutah:
Here are a few problems that I found with v8. I flashed it 3 times (debloated, bloated then debloated).

1) No blue battery meter. It is still the green battery w/o % numbers. Ah, I see that you said it's green when at 100%, I was flashing at 100% and plugged in. Maybe that is why!

2) Still cannot set lockscreen wallpaper using gallery. It now shows as an option but when you choose it, it goes back to the display settings.

* To set lockscreen wallpaper. Choose picture in gallery and choose "set as".

3) Settings FC when setting up weather for lockscreen. Specifically when choosing "weather settings" in the display settings.

Like someone said before and you said you were going to work on it. Would you let us know when it is going to do a full wipe/reset. I didn't have my sms backed up and lost them.

I ended up flashing back to v7 until v9 comes out :D

Anyway to get back the 3g/4g signals meter that was used in the original Semi? It used less space on the top bar.

Thanks for all the hard work you've put into this rom, it is awesome :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] selw0nk:
He mentioned he is fixing the problems and will be in the new v9 if you read a couple posts above.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RockRatt:
AJ I was wondering why the framework-res.apk has an extra folder inside of it labeled "NEW". I am guessing it was from decompiling it and then recompiling it? It doesnt seem to make a difference if it is in there or removed. So I was curious about it.

Sent from My SGH-I777 Running UCLE5 SANGRE AZUL 2 Rom

Mic swap is for AOSP (CM9, AOKP) and I9100 based.

Non mic swap for I777 leaks.

Like a lot of people here, I get curious as to what AT&T will do with ICS and I continue to try the newest leaks. S.O.S. from our fearless carrier.

The rom seemed to run quite well but that is expected with an ICS release. The wallpaper issue is just weird. Who at AT&T decided to use the EXACT same look for every update? It was the same with the Captivate from Eclair to Froyo to Gingerbread. BLAH!!

Thank you all you genius devs for your hard work to give us the phones they deserve to be!!

For those testing this out, any feedback on any changes/tweaks for the core TouchWiz apps?

i.e.,

Email (particularly Exchange integration)

Web Browser

Calendar

Launcher

Any noticeable changes (for better or worse) compared to previous iterations, or the international ones?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] n7slc:
I tried it, seems to work fine and is stable but the in-call earpiece volume is low and can't do anything to increase it. Back to AOKP for now and will wait for another leak to try out.

So far everything looks the same as the previous release, but I did notice that the lock screen issue with the emergency call only script seems to be fixed. I haven't had any issues, but I'm also running siyahs latest kernel....

The couple calls I made , the other person said it was really scratchy or sounded like hissing the whole time. Dont know if its the new modem, or that Siyah 3.2.2 kernel, but something was acting funky.

I didn't have the problem with phone calls. Try the AJ's kernel to see if you get the same results.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:
Sounds like you used a kernel that has mic swapping enabled. You need a kernel without mic swapping for any i777 leaks, such as this one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
Strange thing is, I was using the correct one. The non-mic-swap Siyah.

TIP: If you want the best battery life, and performance, switch to siyah kernal. I tested all the kernals today, and this works the best, and better...

Get ex tweaks, ans follow. [First page] > CPU hot plug settings > hotplug mode (select, SECOND CORE ALWAYS ON).

Scroll down. CPU IDLE and power settings > CPU idle mode > (Select IDLE+ IPA)

Finally scroll down to SMOOTH SCALLING LEVEL. And set it to 1000-1600MHz

Confirm, reboot, and enjoy. Hoped this helped... ;)

AJ, if I go into keyboard settings like I am going to change the default keyboard I get a weird message and the phone does a hot reboot. Everything else seems buttah so far. Did a complete wipe before install and just for the hell of it, wiped dalvik and cache and tried it again with same result.

Running debloated, Siyah and TW4.

I don't think this is a big deal, but something to check.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:

I cannot change ringtone and notification sound. When I choose a different ringtone, it does not change from default.

I will keep eye on it.

I flashed this about an hour ago. Everything is very smooth so far. This is my idea of a great rom. simple and smoothe. One little quirky bug, that i don't really even call a bug because I won't worry about changing it since this seems to be stable - I use a widget to go from sound/vibrate/silent; when it goes to complete silent, there's a green square that appears in the notification bar instead of the speaker with a line through it. kinda funny.

I haven't synced my contacts/calendar yet, so i'll report back any issues.

regarding ringtones as mentioned in the previous post. no problems here, but I installed TW4 since I use apex anyway.

Thanks again AJ for this great ROM.

There are a couple ways to do it.

You can download a app called "triangle away" from the android market, or

you can purchase a dongle which plugs into the usb port of your phone from

ebay for under $2 bucks shipped, there are other ways too but more complicated.

These two ways are are the best and easiest..

Good luck with it!

used v9a all day today. ran smooth. bluetooth music in the car worked perfectly. I did experience one thing that happened in previous versions - my txt message tone reverted to the default notification tone at some point. I wasn't paying complete attention to what all i had open on the phone though so I am not sure what could have caused it.

also, as mentioned a few posts back, green square in the notification bar when turned to silent mode (without vibrate).

Also meant to add that this is from a fresh install - wiped clean before anything was installed.

I flashed v9a twice this morning. The first time was without wipe. The second time I wipe data, cache and dalvik then wipe again during the install.

I'm seeing the same problem as v8.

cell phone network and power finally came back to my area, and tested few things on v9a.

Overall, I like it, but UI is a bit unstable. Freezes and crashes time to time in random.

Probably issue with TouchWiz UX being ported from SG3 ?

Also, there is some issue with wall paper option menu.

Long press on home screen comes up with following screen.

Set wallpaper for

"Home screen" works fine.

"Lock screen" is like below

"Home and lock screen" is like below.

These blank buttons will open "Set wallpaper" menu, which only has built in wall papers.

And there is problem setting message ringtone.

If I change message ringtone, it works only until a reboot.

Once I reboot, it returns to default notification ringtone.

Extended power menu is the only change. Do not load if you're not interested in the extended power menu - just wait for another release.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Slavestate:
Touchwiz UX is gonna be a tough one. From my playing around trying to completely "port" it, it seems you really need to take ALL of the apps and widgets that are tied to it. Some of the apps on the GS3 are way bigger then they were on our GS2 so we may not even have the space on our system partition to fit them. Just the simple little Memo app alone is like 16mb bigger on the GS3. The stock GS3 rom I have blows up to 2gb uncompressed, where ours are about a quarter of that size so its going to take some work..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:
Unless something darn close to a miracle happens, UX will not be included in Semi after this v10 release.

I do not recommend UX so I will not longer include it in the ROM.

Install it as an add-on if you wish that is fine, or even better just use Apex or something that actually works.

AJ, I've been working to see what to do about the mms reverting back to default notification tone. Did you put a new mms in Semi?
