No Signal At all

I just flashed this on my wife's TMO GSII - I had her on 4.2E previously with no problems. In autopilot flash mode I went ahead and flashed the radio as well not thinking about it. Now, trying to flash a TMO radio I'm still not having any luck. I've started over 3 times now with flashing the correct radio just after the base even though I know it shouldn't have to be flashed again.

I can't even get in to put in the APN info as when I try to get to Mobile Networks in the settings it tells me to insert SIM card to access network services. I've rebooted without the SIM and then again with it back in but it doesn't seem to help. I've tried a couple different TMO GSII ICS radios but not getting anywhere. Any suggestions or answers to why this doesn't seem to work with a T989 like the ATT leaks that Seanz made?

Thanks, can the UCLE2 be flashed to a Rogers device (I mean through Odin as I have a 727r) ? As I thought the leaked versions can only work with the at&t version unless you flash through cwm. Also did you partition your sd card in cwm? which version of cwm are you using?

Not sure what you mean by looking for pop-up pics. That doesn't seem to make any sense. Also, for you folk that don't know the TMO GSII is about identical to the Skyrocket. If you read and comprehended my post on this question you'd see that I've already used the AT&T leaks that Seanz put out for us on the TMO GSII. I had asked in one of those previous builds how to do it and the answer Seanz (and others) gave was just to not use the radio from the build and use the existing TMO radio and it worked just fine. Now on this Rogers based build that same process doesn't work.

Thanks for that extremely helpful link... :rolleyes: Given that I had received help previously in this forum for the same process and was helped - and in turn help other T989 users in this forum - and we're talking about the build that has a thread in this forum it would seem more relevant to ask here and not over in the T989 forum. I will continue to search but if someone has some helpful information that would be appreciated.

Hey all,

Just moved to the I727R after being on an HTC Sensation for the last year. I started rooting that phone from the start. Now coming to Samsung there are some differences.

I'm wondering if anyone could point out a page where I can learn about the different modems etc. and what I could expect from flashing them...

Oh, and are there any fears of hardbricking from any of the kernels? The info I found has been sparse and just want to make certain.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Datron:
Welcome to the sr and thanks for your question. Regarding kernels and bricking, I have no input.

For modems, there really isn't a concise repository of info available. It's all individual reports buried in several threads. The common recommendation is to trial and error all radios in the OP to find the best one for your device in your area. Flashing modems is relatively risk free, as long as you're using those in the op.

Feel free to test them out and report your findings for your specific geographic area. Cheers in advance!

Since you're new to the device I'd avoid the UCLC5 (Note) modem since it can corrupt your emmc. This thread is a Rogers official ICS with AT&T support, the last leak sean worked was UCLE2 which is fast and stable. The latest leak is f3 which rem is working on in another thread.

This is the first thing I have heard about UCALC4 radio causing corruption. The only radio I have heard that causes any corruption was the one for the Galaxy Note. I, and many others here, have flashed all of the leaked "Skyrocket" radios/modems many times with no corruption problems whatsoever.

By the way, UCALC4 was my radio of choice in my locale up until the newest radio (I727RUXLF3) that was supplied with the Rogers official release.

Alright, I've found something interesting. ROM works really well btw, although I only flashed it last night.

Very strange. I switch to video and the dark spot is gone. Also, I used Instagram and the dark spot is also not there.

If you're using 4.2e-17, you should ask in that thread, not this one.

And be more specific, is 25% with screen on or off? Are you listening to music, or should it be idle? Have you tried wiping and starting over?

dude the battery stuff is just a placebo effect. Ultimately it all falls on your usage. The biggest drain is the screen, so dim that and check to see what programs access data and delete them if you don't use them. And if you are really OCD about your battery then set your email to push every 15 minutes instead of automatic. Maybe you're like me and use your phone TOO MUCH, in that case I recommend this http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-ET-CG...1341156991&sr=1-10&keywords=skyrocket+battery comes with an extra battery already.

Actually I'm getting awesome 2 - 3 % loss an hour while on wireless.

Off wireless on OTA though is a different story. With wireless, GPS, and BT off, and using On Demand, I lose about 20% an hour. Have not tried with data off, but it seems the ICS radios keep the phone active too much for some reason. This is in an LTE area (DFW) on AT&T. Android OS reporting most power usage, BetterBatteryStats isn't showing anything out of normal.

Wish more people showing their amazing battery times would show the graph screen as well so we could compare time on wireless and screen use.

This has been for every ICS leak/ROM so far though, so I've assumed radio/ICS issue and didn't think the ROM authors would be able to do much about it.

I don't think it's off topic... it helps in getting the most out of Sean's roms!

I usually connect to the computer and move any files I want to save from the internal SD to the external (pics, titanium, apk, downloads, new roms/updates, etc...). I then format the internal drive via windows.

I get kinda anal/over redundant here... I'll pull the phone off, boot into recovery & clear caches, format everything but external SD, run darkside, and then flash my new rom following instructions.

I get good results from this, and never have issues anymore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Datron:
Traumaj, great response to help the user. That's what this community is all about. My additions for the original questioner below.

Formatting my storages has worked incredibly well for me. It's a good idea to give your phone a truly fresh start. Having said that, you'll want to be very selective in what you back up to your pc then restore to the phone after you format the drives. Restoring titanium backup files from the pc can sometimes be counterproductive. You're still bringing back "old data" to the phone. Normally if you're only restoring user apps it's okay (system data is often problematic).

If you're looking to get a really clean fresh start, restore nothing but pics and music. The first time I formatted for a true fresh start, I was surprised at how few applications and associated data I really "needed." It can work wonders.

Thanks again traumaj.

Edit: I, too, agree that you should wipe the living heck out of the caches. I also recommend formatting the external SD if possible, for no other reason than the fact that I do it and my phone performs excellently. Not sure if it actually matters though.
