Download Issue

Anyone having problems right now downloading from dev-host?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jphilippon:
I have a few questions, coming from a "one flash" world. Is it necessary to flash a new kernel? It's not in the instructions.

(i'm used to flashing a single zip as a rom and moving on with it)

this rom requires 3-4 flashes each time?

So it goes:

boot recovery

wipe blah blah

install rom

install radio

boot

update binaries

install update

boot

profit?

Again i repeat, is flashing another kernel necessary? what is the difference between them? OP doesn't specify.

And does anyone have any suggestions as to which radio to use? I live in southern california. I KNOW I need to try them out and see which works for me, but if it turns out one doesn't work well I have to repeat all the installation steps over again until a radio works well?

Thanks for your time whoever decides to help me out!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
The default kernel is installed when flashing the base and most would tell you that you will get the best battery life with that one. So no, installing a kernel is not something you will need to do unless you absolutely must have oc/uv capabilities. There are a couple of others to choose from should you decide that you do want those features but they are not a "must", they are strictly user preference.

Radio is no big deal, just start off with the one that is released along with base build. If that one does not suit you, just try one or more of the others until you find the one that does the job. Just remember, if you are flashing a different radio after you have already gone through the wipe and start from scratch routine in the OP, be sure to flash it 3x in succession to make sure it sticks and works properly. Once you find the radio that suits you best, you will not need to flash it any more as the radios and ROM's are independent flashes. In other words, the radios, once flashed, will stay no matter which ROM you may flash afterwards.

As far as the differences in the radios, each one tends to work best for some here and others there. Therefore the reason for flashing each one and trying it out to see which works best for you in you particular locale.

Hope this answered your questions to your satisfaction. If so, please hit the thanks button. ;)

So does anyone knows how to fix the camera failing to start? "camera failed" I have this rom installed for over a week and just yesterday started having this weird issues with the camera apk. Please help....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Face Of Boe:
I've had this intermittent issue with every rom I've installed, even GB-based ones. The camera works fine most of the time, but maybe once/week or two... camera failed. The only fix seems to be a reboot.

I searched and the only credible sounding fix was this:

http://forums.androidcentral.com/ve...acks/59818-howto-fix-camera-failed-error.html

It didn't fix it for me though (although maybe you have to do this every time you re-flash your rom, which for me is weekly, so maybe it did fix it...)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nighthawkmckenzie:
Smart Stay came out of beta after the ROM was built. As another indicated, uninstall it via Tibu. If you want Smart Stay, uninstall and then install direct from the Play store. :-)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Face Of Boe:
I think the firmware activity is gone. I did find a ussd code to enter the camera firmware utility page though.

Careful though, I don't know what half of that means. It didn't stop me from trying each (I did cam-fw-to-phone last figuring it might skew other results). Apparently my FW was already up to date (SDEH0D), so it didn't copy it to the cam.

Thank you! But I'm not clear about the process just yet.. When you say try the one that us released with the base build, is it IN the base already? As in I don't need to flash one?

And one more thing, to flash a new radio do I have to wipe and reinstall?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
No, radios are not included in SkyICS builds or in the updates, therefore yes, you must flash a radio at least once.

And no, after ROM and radio are initially installed it is not necessary to wipe if flashing a different radio. Just wipe cache partition and Dalvik only.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Blairware:
This feature is not exclusive to ICS and has been around since Froyo, just not on a lot of custom ROMS. I know this because for the 2 years since I went to Android from WinMo 6.5 (I was having NONE of what early Windows Phone was offering. Nice as it was, it just seemed to "dumbed down" for my taste) Anyway, I had a Dell Streak and an HTC Inspire 4G, and I always has all my Play Store (Then Market) apps re-download as soon as you put your Google Account in.

You know that setting when you first sign in to Google and it say backup account and settings? It's right in settings after the fact, just look at "Backup and Reset" You tell it WHAT to backup (Data, WiFi Passwords, etc) What ACCOUNT to backup, in the event that you have multiple accounts on the phone. AND.... here's the biggie: "AUTOMATIC RESTORE: "When re-installing an app, restore backed up settings and data"

All are self explanatory. However, I will admit that ICS has increased the number of items being saved, including Wifi Passwords. In 2.x versions of Android, you always had to put that in there after wiping the phone, but as soon as you add the Google account, be prepared for all you apps (for this device) to start downloading.

There is also some dependency on the "Android ID" , a hash that is assigned when the ROM gets first written to phone, and TiBu Uses it (and can restore the previous one after a change, and Android Market/Google Play Store uses it for some purpose as well, not for downloading your apps, cause they come down whether this changes or not, but I saw it referenced by Google Play

Hi, I am also seeing the same thing with "SYSTEM UI has stopped working" after installing battery mod. I followed the instructions to install these two zip through cwm.

SKY ICS 4.2F R2 (ATT)(MODDED UXCLF3 KERNEL) (STOCK EMAIL)

SKY ICS 4.2F-6B(NONWIPE UPDATE)(ALL BASES)

I tried these two battery mods and I got SYSTEM UI has stopped working on both

Stock w Percentage http://d-h.st/jer

Circle sky Ics http://d-h.st/aXU

I tried to search through this thread and the only suggestion is to make sure the 4.2F version is used, not 4.2E. I also tried to wipe dalvik cache before reboot.

Is there some steps I have to do between installing the 6B update and battery mod I am missing? I don't see any instruction on installing battery op in the first page, so I am assuming it's simply through CWM.

I made sure the MD5 checksum is correct so it can't be a corrupted download. CWM log also says battery mod is for 4.2F.

Thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] steadly2004:
After you install a fresh base, you need update A, not B. Also you need to boot, let settle for 5 minutes, install busy box and fix permissions. Then recovery, wipe both cache and update using the A version.

Best I can suggest is to uninstall SVOX and Smart Stay altogether (and anything else that you installed related to voice that in the default room install), and clear data for Talkback. Then reboot your phone. Run fix permissions, reboot again.

Providing the phone is behaving normally at this point, try installing smart stay first, then reintroduce the other apps, but do not restore data from Titanium. Not sure if there is a fix for this problem, but it may help narrow down the conflict.

Firstly, I just want to thank Sean and the rest of you guys for the amazing rom :)

Is anyone else having any issues flashing the new Rogers Google Base 3 rom?

I downloaded the Rogers Google Base 3 rom using the UXCLF3 radio the other day, and after installing the screen never got past the Samsung logo splash screen :(

I tried again by doing a factory reset, wiping system, re-installing base 3 + radio and flashing the stock kernel (STOCK UXCLF3) and it just froze on the Rogers splash screen.

I'm trying to download the rom again, hoping it was just a bad download but for now I reverted back to base 1.

I followed the steps exactly as sean posted so I'm hoping it's just a bad download.

Also, the download site (Dev-Host) has been ridiculously slow for the last few days at least :(

Are others noticing this slowdown too, or is it just my connection (home & work)?

I use a lot of bluetooth devices plus when I get in the car want the phone to connect to two devices (head unit for calls and stereo gateway for streaming). It does not always do this so I made it easy to get to bluetooth settings by setting a Nova action (double finger swipe) to open bluetooth settings and press the device I want. Literally takes less than three seconds.

It is not a great solution but the gateway in my car is finicky to connect automatically but always connects immediately when I do it manually like this. I always had problems in gingerbread connecting to multiple devices which was one reason I went to ICS as soon as possible.
