I am still a happy owner of the GS2 I727 Skyrocket. - I don't know if this is considered off topic but Can you guys do me a huge favor?

If you are on a CM 11 based ROM (Currently I am on Sultan's CM11)

1) Wipe Dalvik/Cache, and Reboot System. You will see "Android is Upgrading" message,

2) the Launcher/Desktop shows up for 1 second, and THEN Lock Screen makes its appearance.

The Correct Order of Sequence should be that the LockScreen should always be first. I consider this bug but I cannot locate its source.

I would like to know if this is a common situation with most CM 11 based ROMS. Once I know more about WHY this is happening, I am going to fix this problem for everyone. I hope some people here can help me out in my progress.

I have noticed this issue on CM11 Official (upto latest Nightly) , Sultan's CM 11, and CarbonKK for Skyrocket.

If I can find out exactly what causes this, I will fix this for everyone.

Looking forward to replies on, thank you and have a great day!

Only reason that I have not put Sultan's LP on it is because I am not yet sure if it can be used as a fully reliable daily driver "pick up and go" phone. Once that is possible I will use that. I have not set it on Art - How is ART performance compared to Dalvik on this phone?

Skyrockets never die, they just need to be flashed lol

We sold my wife's Skyrocket a while back, but mine's still around here somewhere. I can't get it to flash to anything other than stock 4.1 at this point lol. No idea why, and this is a problem going back over a year that I've never been able to solve. I almost wonder if the EMMC chip is damaged. Doesn't matter, though. 4.1 stock, rooted, runs just fine on the rare occasion that I break it out and play around with it. I've kicked around the idea of making my old Skyrocket into an alarm clock that can stream music, give me a full weather breakdown, etc. It seems like a worthwhile experiment.
[Off-topic] vincom:
if it did a fresh install of 4.1 stock i dont think your memory went bad, it could just be a recovery problem, reflash latest twrp might work and nothing to lose by trying.

My old Skyrocket is running the last of Sultan's KitKat ROMs, and that thing never dies. Seriously, it's uptime is better than my router's uptime. Of course, it's just a big clock now - I run TabletClock on it, but none of my other phones manage to go that long without needing a reboot.

I only wish Samsung still felt the same way they did when they made the Skyrocket. It is virtually impossible to truly brick on of these beasts, which is remarkable given how easy it is to brick their latest devices...

Lots of names I recognize here. Good to see you. I still have the rocket but have moved on to nexus devices. When Sammy locked the bootloader it took all the fun out of them.
[Off-topic] mindmajick:
Agreed. I've been running the HTC m8 for quite a while now. It's fun because I can go back and forth from gpe to HTC. Currently running a ported m10 Chinese rom on that one.

My nexus 7 2013 (that I'm typing on) has just been upgraded to android n.. Unofficially, of course.
[Off-topic] jshamlet:
The M8 is one hell of a device, and I'm not sure if I'm going to upgrade to the new Nexus 6 or not. I S-off'ed 3 days after I got it and haven't looked back, as I can almost treat it like a Nexus device.

My 2013 N7 tablet, on the other hand, is now a dedicated bed-side alarm clock noise maker now that the touch screen is acting up more often. I might give that unofficial Nougat ROM a try, though.
[Off-topic] mindmajick:
Yup. It's on version .4 and is already a daily driver. Minor issues that can all be fixed by reading the OP.

I still have no need for a newer phone.. the m8 is infinitely hackable STILL. It's the only phone since the rocket I can say that about.

just bought a used s5 sm-g900w8, canadian model, eh!

note about the canadian s5, theres no locked bootloader, just has knox if flashing custom stuff which would void warranty if tripped lol.

seems easy enough to root which is all im interested in, for now.

but still rocking my skyrocket.
[Off-topic] jshamlet:
Cool find! The good news is, the S5 is likely old enough now to not HAVE a warranty, so trip Knox all you want :D

I'm holding out that AT&T will actually carry the HTC One M11, especially now that Samsung is having so many problems with the Note 7 that airlines are beginning to take a "No Samsung devices onboard" approach. If jcase gets S-off on it, which he has a solid track record of, it looks like it might be my next phone.
[Off-topic] vincom:
yup, i dont care about knox just the bootloader, it seems att's s5 has the locked bootloader, lucky us canucks. still nothing as easy as the skyrocket was.

but i had to pay to get it unlocked as there was no hack to do it for free, a whole $11 for a paid code, lol, that was for bell/virgin phone, rogers its a few bucks cheaper

[Off-topic] jshamlet:
On an unrelated note, I'm not sure what to do with my old Skyrockets. Because they were kept in cases, they are practically spotless (my wife's has a small seam in the fake chrome around her white S2 and some minor burn-in on the screen, but my black S2 is close to cosmetically flawless). They have been network unlocked and were running the CandySix MM ROM before I powered them down and pulled the batteries.

At this point, I have no immediate use for them, but I hate to toss perfectly good hardware. I already have an old N7 as my alarm clock/music player and now an old M8 as a "universal remote control". I would offer them up to any remaining Skyrocket devs, but it's not clear there are any.

Ideas on what to do with these old phones?
