I have never experienced this 3M camera issue please follow the install instructions if you didn't format "system" do so and re-install the ROM. This will probably fix the camera and any other issue you may have.

Roger

---------- Post added at 01:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:32 PM ----------

I have never built a hercules ROM but I say this again to everyone format "System" in recovery before installing your ROM.

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] suaverc118:
That's what I did.

Format system

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik

Flash rom

Flash gapps

Reboot.

I also have the camera that doesn't show anything over 3mp.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
when I say full wipe it always includes system... No point in wiping anything without system. Would be awesome to acquire a thanks instead of an insult for feedback.. But its cool still appreciate what you do. If you use the non market fix gapps you get the 3mp issue - or that is what I had experienced.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
I'm not sure if things are different camera wise on the Hercules I would PM the guy that built your ROM. For me the camera on the skyrocket has been flawless on my last build no flicker and all settings from VGA - 8M are available sorry I can't be of more help.

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
Thanks for your response. But just so you know I always format system when flashing a new Rom. I don't forget this step ever.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
@Dex954 I don't see where I insulted you or anyone else on this thread. If I did it was unintentional and I apologize.

I tried to answer 10 - 15 questions in a row so some of my repeated replies may have not come across right. Everyone feedback is appreciated I have thanked you.

For the record your post did not say you formatted system, you quoted suaverc118 and he mentioned system.

Again thanks for the feedback

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
I see that now. Slipped my mind I guess. With TWRP it has always just been part of my flashing regiment... Just go through the square - 5 times each...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
Did you have a chance to play around with the Play Store UI density, if yes did it fix your issue? If you installed your widget via titanium go to app settings and clear data and cache for the widget and reboot let us know if this worked.

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xadidas4lifex:
looking at the download instructions, we have to flash su?

its not included with the rom?

i mean i have it on my friends skyrocket, and i havent flashed su yet...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
@ suaverc118, a few pages back i posted a camera fix, give that a shot and let me know if that worked for you.

@Dex 954, same use the camera fix, and possibly check if you have your user apps defaulted to anything other than phone-stock in PA settings,

@Tonyfiore same as above, and tell us your results.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
You have to flash it for JB ROMs if you want to keep root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
Here is an update zip for those who want the blue navigation bar, remember that I added this on the previous update and is not included by default in PA that is why roger's build didn't have it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Rotary Parts:
the way you flash and wipe is not the camera issue it is the GAPPS package. 8-11 Gapps is the problem if you flash 7-26 gapps camera is back to 8mp.

Sent from My Sweet Red Galaxy SIII
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
I've been using Gapps 8-11 with the market fix from the OP since day one and my camera has never failed. But I agree some of the Gapps floating around on XDA will hose your camera.

Rotary Thanks for pointing that out

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Rotary Parts:
the 8-11 gapps i was using hosed my camera. so i flash justin beans inverted and my camera went back to 8mp. then flashed 7-26 gapps and camera 8mp so i narrowed it down to the Gapps i was using. it worth a shot lol :cool: i did some searching and CM site doesn't have 8-11 gapps only 7-26 so did someone put them together? when i flash 8-11 to my S3 it does the same thing hoses the camera to 3mp
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
I don't know who put together the Gapps in the OP I'm fairly knew to this thread just been here a few weeks.

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Grim Reaper:
I'm sorry for trying. I'll go sit in my corner.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
Just to update those whose are interested...

I reinstalled the latest ROM. I installed the most recent instigatorx kernel. I'm not having the screen freezes and SODs like I was this morning. But I am still having systemui crashes when I install any apps from the Play Store. I've tried setting the DPI to to all of the official settings listed a few pages back. They all end up with the same crashing system ui result. As always, I've fixed permissions, cleared caches, etc. I have no idea why the store would crash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
Are you using another launcher? Weird I don't think anyone else has reported crashes while installing from the market. One more question are you running the apps that are crashing from the Ext. SD card?

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] suaverc118:
Thanks! I'm using 8/11. I will reflash the 7/26 gapps and see what happens
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Z33type:
so far everything is fixed on my phone now but now I keep hearing about this Google r6 on some PA roms on other devices. What is revision 6?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rmartin0120:
Market GAPPS Fix?

Does anyone know where I could find the 811gapps market fix? Or is it not needed anymore? Thanks in advanced.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] suaverc118:
Thanks for the camera fix and suggestions but it didn't fix anything. Neither did using 7/26 gapps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] blackhawks29:
My 2 cents, 2.16 is flawless thus far. Even activating the browser menu is fixed and no longer freezes the phone. Big plus. Everything seems to work. BTW, the problems the others are experiencing are most likely "user errors".
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
I appreciate your "2 cents" but the problems I'm experiencing I believe is more due to my actual phone than a user error. If anything, I take too many precautionary steps when flashing ROMs. I've detailed my steps in the past. There's no need to cite other people's errors when you have no idea what they are or if they are making them. I'm happy that the ROM is working for you flawlessly but there's no reason why you should arbitrarily say that other people are making mistakes. Just worry about your own configuration, steps, etc.

I've tried flashing this thing three times and have experienced system ui crashes every time. And I know I'm doing everything by the book.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] fongz27:
Well let's try to help each other instead...

1 what's your flash recovery type and version?

2 system ui issues?? Did you format /system after a factory /data reset?

3 Flashing inverted gapps or any sort of theming?

BeamD by my I727 on Marz! @_@
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] blackhawks29:
Usually using the block of install instructions that are in the OP is sufficient enough to produce a fully working environment. Flashing instigatorXs kernel and disabling hw overlays if flicker is present is all you need to do outside of that block.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
@suaverc are you using my latest Skyrocket build or are you using someone else Hercules build?

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
Twrp

Yes system yes factory

Market fix apps provided in op

Get the same thing as him
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
1) I'm using ClockworkMod v6.0.1.4 Touch v13.3

2) I always do a factory reset, clear all caches and format system whenever I flash a new ROM. Always.

3) No, no inverted gapps. I tried the gapps-jb-20120811.zip version and the gapps-jb-20120726-signed.zip version. same results.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
Just flashed the new sk8t CWM - did another full flash EXACTLY like this:

1. wiped cache 5x

2. wiped dalvik 5x

3. Factory data reset 5x

4. wiped system 5x

6. installed rom

7. installed jb apps market fix

8. installed SU

9. Reboot System

And still every time an app is installed the system UI FC's. May be important to note I am on Tablet mode not phone ui
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
@tonyfiore75 and Dex954 I PM'd both of you let me know what happens.

UGH! Was so eager to try this after running CM10 official for 1.5 months with no updates (not dogging the team, they rock!..just got antsy)..that I didnt double check my nandroid backup...somehow my app data didnt get copied even though the backup took ~20 minutes. total backup folder was only 30 megs...any thoughts on recovering gosms or fuelpro data (or any other app data for that matter) would be sweet!

And nice rom! love the feel. Tinkering with the resolution settings now because the settings folder is a little to "scrunched" together for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
Latest S8ters CWM v6.0.1.4, Tablet mode, PM....

1. Wipe Data x5

2. Wipe System x5

3. Wipe Cache x5

4. Wipe Dalvik Cache x5

5. Install Rom

6. Install SU

7. Install jb market fix apps

8. Reboot System Now

No longer having the system UI issue. Whatever you changed - Worked - or if it was a placebo... That worked too..

PA 2.16 Build 9/30

PA 2.16 Build 9/30

Hey guys this build fixed the FCing of UIs for a couple of user. Here you go PA 2.16 9/30 build to satisfy your flashoholic needs. You can sort through the change log if you'd like HERE.

I highly recommend you "FORMAT SYSTEM" if not the bugs you previously had will most likely follow this ROM.

These install steps have never failed me follow the order as listed.

Optional: I "Factory Reset" after every 4 or 5 flashes. If you don't want to lose your installed apps don't but may be necessary if you still experience issues.

Format system (Yes format it I rarely see this step in anyone's install instructions)

Install ROM, Gapps, SU.

Format cache

Optional: Wipe Delvik cache.

Fix permissions

Reboot

Let it settle for a few minutes.

Please report your findings regardless of the out come, feedback is the only way we can try and improve our builds.

**** Flash at your own risk all the usual warnings apply ****
​

If you swap out kernels, launchers, or install 100 apps all bets are off any of those can cause issues. Try the stock ROM first to see your issues have been resolved.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
The only real issue I had with 2.16 is this - I use Beautiful Widgets. When you click on the widget it takes you to an animated weather forecast screen. That forecast screen continually freezes up and then proceeds to render the phone useless. The whole thing freezes up and I have to hold the power button in to reboot the phone. I tried this with both the stock kernel and with the InstigatorX kernel. Same result. It's almost as if the animation/graphics is just too much for this particular iteration of the ROM. I dunno. This same thing happened to me on the previous build as well. But with that build I was experiencing system ui crashes which I did not experience at all on 2.16.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
Sorry to hear about your Sods but when reporting issues please provide more details. This would be beneficial to everyone.

1. Install dirty or clean?

2. During the install did you format system?

3. Kernel stock or something else?

4. How are you installing your apps TiBu, google, or one at a time (clean)?

5. What were you doing when the Sod occurred?

6. Anything else you think may be helpful.

Roger

---------- Post added at 11:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:52 AM ----------

I had an SOD earlier when I had the phone plugged into the charger I turned the screen on replied to a text turned the screen off then after 3 seconds it vibrated and the charging screen that shows when the phone is off came up for half a second then the screen went off. It wouldn't power on by just using the power button. I had to hold volume up plus power to do a hard reset
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :

My report and Feedback for 2.16

Report: 2.16 9/27 or 9/28 can't remember which day it was exactly.

No SOD's no freezes.

Email, You Tube, Facebook, Browser all running flawlessly.

Play store, everything downloads and installs just fine.

Still have yet to test the calls due to no service card yet, (shortly)

Skype I get about 4-5 hours typically off a full battery using video chat.

Although the video via Skype gets a little janky at times but I can cope lol.

Sound quality via music, Skype sounds everything is decently loud, not loud enough for me but that's cause I love everything LOUD.

Apps Open and close as they should, and load fast, recants menu does not show double's and also works as it should.

Typically with light usage I can get about 14-16 hours on a battery fully charged

heavy usage about 8-10 hours (maybe).

Looking forward to 2.17 man, hope I can be the first to test

Keep up the great work and thanks again.
