[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aceownstheworld:
I'm on ICS. I switched ROMS to CM9 to see if SKYICS was the problem, and same thing. The APN settings are correct. I pulled the sim, and dialed, and it said the mobile network wasn't able. Put the sim back in and dialed, and it says MMI is invalid. :/

*EDIT*

I did try the Alternate APN and its doing the same thing. What I've noticed though is it keeps switching the little network icon from an H, to 3g, to H, to nothing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MakAttak:
Same

OK, I was having those EXACT problems on my GB build. I did a complete tear down to stock (yech) and suddenly I could see AT&T LTE again, and it wasn't switching from H+ to nothing and Edge..

So, I got sick of stock in about three minutes and decided to try ICS for a first time. Got the UCLD2 stuff and followed instructions (I know... booooring... LOL) and it actually worked. I am now on ICS with Smooth Ice and my transfer rates in Dallas are around 30-35mb (ok by me)...

QUESTION: Where can I find the CM9 rom for this setup? I was out of the loop for about two months and everything I knew is now wrong.. LOL

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aceownstheworld:
The alpha build is over in the dev forums. I'd go with SKYICS though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Lucidmike:
Is this on HSPA+ or LTE? Maybe you got throttled.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aceownstheworld:
I didn't get throttled. My Billing cycle had just started. It fixed itself when I went back to GB for a day. I read somewhere else to do the oneclick before flashing roms. So I did that, went back to skyics, and it worked again.

----- TWRP -----

What is TWRP:

Open source touch based recovery.

http://teamw.in/project/twrp2

New version of TWRP v2.1.4 (31-05-2012):

Fixed weird colors :)

All function are working (including adb)

As fast as it gets

Theme I made is default (see 1st screen)

Please report bugs.

Known issues:

Theming works, but you gotta press the 'advanced->reload theme' button every boot.

Place ui.zip (do not extract) here: /sdcard/TWRP/theme/ui.zip. Reboot to recovery and press reload theme.

Ill try to fix theming on boot this week.

Install

Use fastboot to flash it (like normal recovery):

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Themes

ICS look

ICS look by XiproX

LG theme

----- CWM Touch -----

Single touch version under development by Napstar

Press thanks if you like this !!!

I don't like the slow downloadsites to make money, so a little donation would be nice ;)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] coto39:
Thanks so much!!! Installing now and testing!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Weekend Offender:
Thanks alot man !!! Can this recovery restore CWM backups ?? And why dont you try to make touch cwm recovery ?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Dont think so.. But you could try. I tried touch cwm but couldnt get touch input working. TWRP is good too:)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] coto39:
Confirmed. This recovery can't restore cwm backups because backups made with this recovery are in different format.

Good thing is that:

- backup's are faster (restore's too) than cwm

- can apply compression to backups so they will weigh less (207mb with TWRP vs 350mb of Cwm)

- can reboot into fastboot (in cwm don't)

- touch!!!!!!!

- can partition SD and set ext size and format.

- same features as Cwm recovery and more organized

Thanks for compile this recovery!!!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Weekend Offender:
You only have to make usb mount work and it will be perfect !!!! :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
:D :D :D so someone DID see the post i posted ;)

Thanks for making this work!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] maneshvinod:
great work i am waiting for this type of recovery bcz my volume butten is almost dead.sorry for my bad english
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
True story! Only difference is that my keyes are already dead :p
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] mlody95pl:
Anyone can try aroma installer on this recovery

Wysyłane z mojego GT-S5660 za pomocą Tapatalk 2
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] s-u-f-f-e-r:
Fastboot is the only way to install this recovery.

I already try with android terminal and root toolbox.

The terminal returns error.

After both methods and reboot to recovery the phone goes to Fastboot mode.

I'll try fastboot later, because this is very interesting alternative recovery :)

10x
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
hmm? what error? is it to do with memory?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
you CAN flash this with terminal emulator / adb shell (for example):

su

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

If you want to interact with SDcard from your computer you can do this with ADB (instead of usb mount). There is a flag to disable USB mount for TWRP (TW_NO_USB_STORAGE) but i will leave it in for now.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] maneshvinod:
Iam installed this recovery by using yaffsexpert.apk.try this apk works great for me
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] bataya:
Does it work with rom manager?

Maybe you can port it to our phone.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] delsus:
Anyone that has tested, how is this overall compared to CWM? I would like to try it, but I don't wanna keep flashing this, and rolling back to CWM.

Also could we get some screens up please.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
About the same functions as CWM, but faster backup/restore. And it is a bit faster because you have touch and don't have to scroll trough all the 'no's' in the CWM menu.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Weekend Offender:
like thomas1991_12 said it has same options as cwm but with faster backup and restore,only thing that doesnt work is usb mount...

i took 2 pictures but im sry for bad quality cause i have only 5mpx camera :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] delsus:
I'll check it out, always nice for new things :p
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
Now my recovery shows orange options... while yours is grey?.... :p i hate orange. This recovery is good for phones which have dead hard keyes
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] coto39:
The keys are orange! Maybe is something with his camera xD

By the way: did someone read my last post? (about touch recovery for p500?). Maybe somebody can port it to our phone...
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
You can make a theme for TWRP if you like and change colors. (see website in first post)

Ive contacted the guy who made it for p350/p500 and tried myself, but there is something strange about the touchscreen of GT540 not recognizing the precise input..

It could be someting with multitouch...
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
I think its a multitouch issue with CWM touch, it uses ABS_MT... functions. Those will only work with multitouch i think. So if we want CWM touch we will need to rewrite all the multitouch parts to single touch..
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Weekend Offender:
my camera is bad it has only 5 mpx :D and the buttons are orange not grey :P
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Koloses:
Themes doesn't seem to work. I've put one for 2.1 in /sdcard/TWRP/theme/ui.zip and buttons are still orange.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
wrong res?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Koloses:
Nope, i've even resized one for 320x480 and it doesn't work. Also if it would be wrong, then theme should apply anyway, but with just part of a screen..
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
hmm true
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] liamwli:
Why wont backup work in this?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
It works
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
New update broke backup. Ill try to fix it soon.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
old one works fine ;)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] mail2eswar:
I am not able flash ROMs with this recovery. I tried different ROMs like PolishBlood CM9, Tejas CM7, Project ICS, etc. But I am getting an error saying "Error Flashing Zip.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
Very likey the files are corrupted.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Are you using the new recovery?

Try the old one, its more stable (recovery_orig). The new one has problems with mounting and sdcard.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] mail2eswar:
I am using the old recovery only. I am able to browse through the files in the SD card. So, I think it is very unlikely to be a mount issue. What do you say?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
I only tested with LG IME 2.3 here: http://www.mediafire.com/?6a3q9oyq9f97c21

Try this, if that doesnt work its a problem on your side.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] mail2eswar:
Thank you. But unfortunately my ROM is not working. I have to flash a new ROM before installing this.

So, I was forced to go back to ColckworkMod. I loved this recovery because it is very easy to use than the CWM. The menu is also very well designed.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Were you able to flash the file i send you (lg ime) or did it fail too?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] mail2eswar:
I am able to install this succefully using this recovery. But I am not able to flash other ROMs.

Meanwhile I installed the RZR recovery and I am able to install any of the ROMs with out any problem.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] CoolApps:
Amazing!, I'm glad I got this! :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Little update about CWM touch recovery:

Ive been in contact with Napstar (the guy who's been working on CWM touch). He thinks its a multitouch issue too, he is going to try to add support for single touch. When he does, ill compile it and post it in a seperate thread.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] delsus:
Cool, thanks for this, i'll keep checking for updates (especially seeing as my galaxy S3 has been delayed, damn Samsung)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
Na just use the same thread. My tip, When you have the cwm version ready just wrap TWRP section in a Quote tag and then wrap the CWM section in another Quote tag for example

This way its more organized and less spread out in different thread :)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Hikari:
Another proof that the themes don't work.. I downloaded the 480x800 sample from twrp website.. I guess the ui elements should be shown anyway; even if the sizes don't match...
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
I fixed both backup and mount. Both are working. See first post. :)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] coto39:

try to install miroslav's latest build of ICS 4.0.4
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] coto39:
Don't work... It starts flashing and suddenly you are trapped into a TWRP bootloop... TWRP logo appears and only way to get out there is pulling back the battery.

So rom installing don't work with TWRP :( Hope you can fix it...
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Trying at this very moment..
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
I think i fixed it, tried with the new mokee os. (stupid typo in default.prop caused the problem).

I replaced the recovery.img in original post and attached it here.

Lets pray no bugs show up.. ;)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] coto39:
Thanks for the try but it isn't fully fixed... When i try to install latest miro's ICS build the phone shows Teamwin logo. Is that normal when flashing a rom??
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] mArtinko5MB:
Has anyone tried function backup & restore - advanced - restore data ? It's only condition for me to work
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] shiny shoes:
So do you prefer using this (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1485915) recovery instead of TWRP?

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Hikari:
Backup & restore work. I havent tried advanced restore though...

---------- Post added at 05:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 AM ----------

UPDATE: Advanced backup working!!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] mArtinko5MB:
Thanks man, that's what i had to know :) Change my recovery to this one though
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
No thats not supposed to happen. Ill go ahead and try myself with ICS. Is your partition big enough (190mb)?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] mArtinko5MB:
What about themes ? Has anyone tried it ?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Hikari:
I did, they don't work!. But of course we can be patient. I mean, Dev please don't feel that we are sort of pushing you for fixes and updates.. You're making it great :D

---------- Post added at 09:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 AM ----------

its not an issue with partition definitely.. I have 200mb system and have the same issue.

I flashed cwm back, tried the latest cm9 update and successfully flashed...
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Could you guys test with different roms too?

Because i have the impression the problem is only with miroslav MM. Could be wrong.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Hikari:
I tried MIUI4 by mike it looks like its flashing but it takes forever. And when I reboot i see that it did nothing...
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Thats a ICS rom too right?

Ive been reading up on this. And until TWRP 2.1 ICS flashing wasnt supported at all. They have just implemented it. And my theory is that TWRP lacks full ICS support for all phones (without having to customize the whole project).

So i have been testing some froyo/gingerbread roms and until now they all flashed succesfully, i only had problems with ICS roms.

Could be totally wrong here, but if you guys could test some gingerbread roms and report back it would be helpful.

EDIT: added little update in first post, new recovery file with battery percentage (still no ics roms)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
I have found a way to flash a rom without having sdcard!!! but it does not work :/

try this :

1. adb push a rom into /data

2. go into recovery and select zip

3. in the filemanager thingy click on the top option /.. (or something similar)

4. go to /data

5. select zip :D

6. wont work :/ go try and see the errors maybe ur can fix it :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Could you Copy log to sdcard (advanced) and show it here?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
hehehe that funny i cant use a sdcard :D just try it yourself .... backup and try its kinda fun lol
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Oops:p You could also use

adb shell

and then

cat /tmp/recovery.log
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
i think this is it

hmm after a brief look thru of the logs this may not be a error with the recover o.o or is it?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Thats strange.. I would think it has to do with you having no sdcard.

Is the rom your using originally: 'CyanogenMod-7.2-Tejas-Build-Two'?

Because i tried that one and it worked without a problem.. (please try both the battery and non battery version, different kernels)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Hikari:
I thought you would like some screenshots for the first post...

Here we go:
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
I tried with a 4.0 also same results so i guess recoveries need a sdcard to "extract" the files there first before pushing them to /system.

As you can see here: (this was taken from a updater-script found in update.zips in the folder \META-INF\com\google\android

package_extract_file("system/bin/backuptool.sh", "/tmp/backuptool.sh");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/backuptool.sh");
run_program("/tmp/backuptool.sh", "backup");
show_progress(0.500000, 0);
format("yaffs2", "MTD", "system");
mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "system", "/system");
package_extract_dir("recovery", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Thanks for the screens. Will add them to 1st post.

About SDcard stuff:

I think for the moment were stuck with what we have (everything working except ICS roms and install from non-sdcard).
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
haha the non-sdcard is totally experimental and for fun. If there is a work around that will be awesome but if not its fine :)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Yeah most people wil install from SDcard anyway:rolleyes:

But the ICS bug is 'bugging' me..:confused:
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
I think I have some good news, ive been reading about the ICS thing and some guys at the samsung forum had similair problems and fixed something in the source code (dont know what).

But what it came down too: The images were getting too big!

So I just downloaded CM9 from miroslav and delete some apps from system and some audio files, that left me with a 95 MB zip. I flashed it (with non battery version, dont know if it matters) and its working!

So either one of this is happening:

- There is a check in source code for filesize..

- We run out of space with a too big image (i think this is the problem)..

So ill go and have a look at the source of TWRP and see if i can make it work.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
I fixed the problem(s). (turned out that by default roms were copied to /tmp first, with big roms that wouldn't fit and it would crash, now it just installs from the place the zip is located)

You can install any rom you like now including ICS!

I think you could even install from places other then SDCard (for you without SDCard).

Please test!

PS: Replaced recovery.img in first post.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
O_O MOTHER OF GOD ARE YOU SERIOUS ?!@?#%@ wanna a cookie?? (er no time to flash a full rom so il try to flash a update)

Edit: er FILE FLASHES!! but its a small fix file and nothing big, will try a full rom later. I cant seem to get adb shell working again o.O
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:

Now working on the screwy graphics colors and themes.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
er never mind it wont matter unless you need a log to check :/ Will flash a full Rom tmr now its 10:32 pm here
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
No, good night ;)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
This recovery keeps me busy :)

But i fixed up the weird colors! (edited graphics.c)

The only thing left is themes!!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] mArtinko5MB:
We have to find some volunteer, who would get known themes on 320x480 resolution to know, if is workin'
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Im 99% sure its not working how it should, because in the log it doesnt say the custom theme is being loaded. Im now making a button in the advanced menu to reload the theme. Ill now in about 10 minutes if its working.

EDIT: OK this is the case with theming:

Themes are working now. But, you first need to click advanced-> reload theme (the button I added). And upon reboot your back to stock and have to do it again.

Too bad there are no 320x480 themes yet.. I think ill make one this evening.

Going to update first post now.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
Ive released RC (1st post, updated recovery.img):

- ADB working

- Themes work (reboot recovery -> advanced -> reload theme)

TWRP team is working on fixing the theme bug. (its a source problem)

Now it goes back to default on reboot..

- Added my own custom theme

- Faster (new kernel)

- Correct colors (graphics.c fixed)

- Can flash any rom

- Can install from other places than SDcard (I think, needs to be tested)

I think everything is working (well except themes properly, but nothing I can do about that yet)..

Feel free to make your own theme, maybe ill make it default if I like it :)

Nice theme btw... I'll try it =D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] andreas__:
very great work will try this soon.

from where are you able to install too ? from internal memory ? put boot.img internal to / system ? or install from adb ?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] thomas1991_12:
I always install from SDcard (normal way).

But in theory it should now be possible to push (adb) the rom to for example /data or /tmp and install from there.

The only time you are gonna need this if youre sdcard is dead..
