but i would go into recovery and do a back up there once done while your still in recovery go back to "back up and restore" and write down the numbers if you have more than one then you can try what ya want andif ya dont like it just restart into to recovery and back into "backup and restore and retore the image you did simple and it gives you back exactly what you have right now :D

I flashed then did update then restored my apps using titanium. So far so good.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jack45:
This build is wonderful for a few reasons (important and not so important):

1. NO FU*#ING ECHO ON EITHER END!!!

2. Soft key lights

stay on

after flashing Mohan's kernel.

3. No AM/PM indication. If you need that, you shouldn't be left alone for too long.

Other current annoyances will go away with a subsequent build (low battery notifications, addition of a reboot to recovery option via power key, etc.)

Re: TiBu - restored apps and data - no problem.

ALWAYS create a nandroid backup before leaving your currently cozy environment just in case.

u can wait for next update, guessing by early morning to add stuff that 4.2e had like shutdown menu options and the fix for twux, just guessing on these but u should wait for new update, sean was impatient on getting this out for us(not a putdown- i really appreciate everything hes done) and i didnt want to wait either i was upto 5am to try it out

For the few of you that have mohans kernel, where did you get it from? I searched the op and it said the kernel was in the rom already, but it doesn't look like it is. I also searched the sticky "all-in-one" thread in the general section and couldn't find that kernel. Should I just wait until seanz patches it in on the upcoming updates?

Edit: I can already tell this rom is going to rock!

I'm sure that SeanZ will add this to updates going forward but I didn't have QuickPanelSettings in either the base or the update... so I grabbed it from another ROM. For those of you who can't wait, here it is.

Testing radios?

In choosing a radio and kernel, I noticed there's an F3 kernel and and F5 kernel, as well as a UCLE2 kernel. Because I'm simple-minded, it appears that a kernel with the same name as the radio would be better integrated to it. Is that a false correlation?

Does the F3 kernel drive all 5 radios equally well? And would the UCLE2 radio work as well under any kernel?

Also, after the triple-flash of a new radio, do you wipe anything (Dalvik?) or just reboot.

Lastly, once you have flashed your radio, what methods do you use to test it? Is it all anecdotal, or are there good apps we should know about? (I already run Ookla's Speedtest for data and Antutu for benchmarking as well as CPU Spy to find out if i'm having wakelock problems, but none of that goes to cell signal (calling) reliability.)

TIA,

Don

Just wondering if anyone has had luck re-installing this app? I pulled it from 4.2e and tried installing but it just says 'not installed'

Is it perhaps just not compatible with 4.2f?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 0rius:
Couple questions:

1) Yestarday I started getting "SIM card removed" errors every few hours. The problem continued through today. Is this a symptom of a bad flash? Starting from a fresh flash of AT&T Base --> SKY ICS 4.2F R2(RUXLF3)TWAGoog updated to 6 with update A.

2) What is the best method to format/wipe the internal SD card? Can I do this via CWM?

Thanks,

0rius
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Steviemac12:
All radios in the OP work on this ROM and no one can tell you which to use. Depends on your area. I used f3 for a long time, then I flashed f5 and found that for me it is better

Download Speed Test from Play Store to test each one to find best performer..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Datron:
1- have u tried actually removing the sim card to give it a good reset?

2- i normally wipe from my pc. It seems to provide a cleaner wipe. I think you can do it in cwm too, and u can format usb storage from android itself (settings/storage/format usb).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
You guys can refresh till the cows come home, but I don't think there will be an update to this ROM until Sean gets his Jellybean port up and running.

Also, since he is working on a port of Jellybean, there may not be any future updates to this particular version of SkyICS, he may start fresh with a Jellybean

base and work forward from there. Just sayin'.

Also, these types of posts should be made in the general forum, not in development. Keep it on topic and clutter free please.

Troll me not. I do not spend my time refreshing and trying to play mod. I have had enough of that in my day on other forums, including my own. I do however, refresh and try to stay on top of legitimate requests for help when the search feature or reading my not me adequate. And I will speak up when folks start straying off topic and cluttering the thread with useless junk that does not pertain to the development of this ROM nor the support thereof.

Also, I see that you are a member since 2008 and have a stellar 13 posts and only 2 thanks, and both of those came from folks that admire the fact that you are attempting to troll me? Why can you 3 not step in and be of help to others, rather than trolling to raise the ire of people that are?

FYI ..... I do have a life thank you, I am a single father that works a full time job with loads of overtime, including weekends most times. I also have my own PC repair, networking and consulting business on the side. I just happen to currently be off work on medical leave due to knee surgery last week and have been trying to help out here as much as I can.

Furthermore, if you have a response to this, please PM me and we will discuss it further privately. I will not clutter the thread any more by having a useless debate with you herein.

OK, let us not take things out of context. I never said that this ROM was dead. I simply stated that this one may be in for a major overhaul in the near future and the new iteration might possibly branch off into something even more spectacular than this already stellar piece of work. If you are needing help with this one, please post your questions if reading through the thread nor the search feature yields any helpful results.

By the way, Seanz stated earlier today that there will most likely be an update for this one in the very near future.

Nice to hear a word from the master

Sean, I KNOW you have been busy; I respect that when you point your guns at JB, you don't want to dilute your effort or spread yourself too thin. I was a

little

disappointed that at the moment are doing more JB development for the Transformer than the Skyrocket, but hey, these are your devices, and it's your life, and I am just grateful for the stuff you have already sent my way, making my Skyrocket oh... about a THOUSAND times better! I have an Asus Tablet too (as if my Signature, Avatar and all that didn't give that away) but other than

your

build.prop for .28 firmware the bulk of your tablet dev. would need to be modified to work on the Prime.

It's just that things have been... I don't know, just blah and boring without your sometimes frantic pace of updates coming at us every day or two. I miss it, honestly. And I sit here, reading other threads, looking at minor tweaks and so on,

but it's just not the same!

I miss ya! PLEASE come back, I'm beggin' ya! ​

See, and I TOLD myself I was not gonna cry... :crying:

It's all good. Looking forward to whatever you push out for the Skyrocket. I need something to strive for, like most of the ORD-affected. I guess I will eventually go for an S-III - I have no great lust for the HTC One-X, it's just the latest in HTC design language, and sure, it's pumped up, but it plain SUCKS that we can't get an LTE quad core yet from Sammy or HTC. Until then, we choose between an International model with crazy processing power or a US with crazy bandwidth, logic dictates that bandwidth wins... it IS a mobile, cellular device after all.

I am holding off to see how the Note II comes out. Even the current one is pretty hot, and from a guy that had a 5" Dell Streak (boy was THAT a big ol' phone. - I used to do the Crocodile Dundee: "That's not a phone... THIS is a phone" bit) The Note II may be just the salve that my ORD induced itch needs.Sorry to go off topic, but be kind guys, things are relatively quite in here, except for the occasional "what radio should I use" every page or 2... it's not like I am interrupting a major dev cycle or anything. I do apologize for the long post.:cyclops:

Indeed. I actually have WiFi Tethering working with no issues at all, but for my wife's (non-rooted) GS II I threw FoxFi on there and when she travels with the kids, they ALL get WiFi through hew phone/FoxFi. That app is a godsend, just install and connect. Nothing easier in the world. Just keep your data amounts from going too high (I used to tether an Android tablet, which uses very similar data patterns to a phone, I would imagine.

hey seanscreamz...I was wondering if this feature can be implemented to your rom.

I just installed a CM9 isc base rom on my Infuse and like the fact that when I get incoming calls, it tells you the city and/or state the call is calling from. I'm not sure if this is a common feature of CM9 ics roms because I have not install one on my skyrocket.

Is this something you can easily put into your rom or it's only a AOSP based rom feature only?

I remember when I had my HTC Vivid with the official ICS update, it had the caller ID (city/state) feature. Just thought it would be cool to have it in your roms. thanks

Hey Sean,

Since you're on an update topic (sweet!), would you consider looking into PDroid on your next release?

Basically, it's an *open-source* privacy protection app for those of us (very small minority = me for now) who wants a bit more control over app permissions and such.

I've done searches on your threads (here and in 4.2e) and couldn't find much discussion of people saying for or against it (no interest?) or just being plain incompatible with your ROMs - that being the case, if I'm wrong or you simply don't like it, then you can stop reading now. :D

But if not, then according to here, it's fairly easy enough to port/integrate/compile it in your kitchen for our ICS ROM (granted I still have much to learn).

I've tried it on my own (from here) with no luck, which is why I'm coming with this to you.

Here's hoping for your consideration!
