Recent Flash

Flashed yesterday. Almost everything is working however I can't get the camera to work. I've seen a lot of people saying they got the camera to work. Please create dummy steps for stupid people like me!

Please someone post the 3 apn selections from this rom thank you

Just want the ones out of this rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cardonam:
Camera working!!!!

For those who are having problems with the camera the following did the trick for me. Working A OK now!!

It may seem straight forward, but it will help the newb's.

1) Under advanced:

- Wipe Dalvik cache

2) Under mount and storage:

- Format /system

- Format /cache

- Format /data

- If you want to clean your external partition on SD card too, ONLY then format /sd-ext

3) Under main menu

- wipe user data

- wipe cache

Then follow the flash instructions.

Enjoy!!!

Anyone else having horrible battery life?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] fongz27:
Not unless you go with InstigatorX Kernel 6.3.6 but then you also might get screen flicker...but it is by far more stable than the kernel that comes with this rom; also stronger vibration... and you can UV this kernel and use badass governor and get AWESOME battery life!

But this 2.13 version still has in-call volume issues and the 6.3.6 kernel still has some quirks so I will go back to an ICS rom until the quirks are all really worked out...

Not to mention 2.13 stock also gets some SOD.... :( pretty sure gs2usr will work these out soon!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Paulk1989:
nothing bad so far for me...and I didn't use instigatorx kernel this time. Complete Clean flash and cache wipes after flashes as well as fixed permissions and everything is smooth for me. and I would figure an as normal battery life for my usage of the day. battery life all depends on how heavy you use the device and some of your settings as well.

all in all great ROM cant wait for 2.14 =)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] evil_ryu:
dang still rocking the 2.0, 9.3.12 version and no complants... did notice on google chrome i wasnt able view youtube enabled but i use regular browser and it fine and getting good battery life :good:

FYI for A2DP users:

It looks like CyanogenMod has implemented the Patch/Fix already and it seems like the value rate "48000" isn't required for our device (Hercules/Skyrocket). I've tested it and all audio works(with just 44100) except during calls it plays the audio on earpiece of the phone/device instead of streaming it to BT earphones. See Post by budjb.

I notice that during a call if you turn OFF the Bluetooth earphone while connected to your device(phone) then turn ON the BT earphone it'll connect and also stream the phone call to BT earphone. :screwy:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] thatlonedude:
OK so I just reinstalled this ROM with out instigators kernel to see if the camera would work again and for some reason I can now access the data monitor in the settings but when I reinstall instigator, it disappears O.o

oh and camera and flash still don't work no matter how many times I wiped

I think compared to SkyICS where I am coming from, most CM10 ROMs have worse battery life.

I have looked extensively into the wakelocks and it's not the wakelocks. The phone is simply draining more power when it's in use. I am not exactly sure what it is but playing video for 1 hr drains ~ 20-25% on SkyICS ROM, whereas on this (and other CM10 ROMs I've tried) it would drain ~ 30%. Same brightness setting, same OC/UC setup.

And on an average 8 hrs day with medium usage, no charging during the day, I end up with ~ 30-40% on SkyICS ROM, I'm down to the teens on this ROM, if even that.

As far as kernel goes, I find that InstigatorX's kernel and stock kernel on this ROM doesn't make a big difference. I have no choice but to go with InstigatorX's kernel since 2.11, because the stock kernel doesn't support BLN anymore.

Sean seems to have done a lot of battery tweaks on his ROM, which might be the reason why SkyICS is better than this ROM for battery life. So it might not be fair to say this ROM has terrible battery life ... it might be that SkyICS has better than average battery life, this ROM is average.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :
Smh... your doing it wrong just saying with this ROM I've managed 7+ hours screen on with roughly 9 hours on battery and that almost constant use both WiFi and data using taptalk, g+ huddles, browsing the web, youtube, if I can pull that off I promise your messing up somewhere because I never got seanz ROMs pushing that hard

Gs2 screw the haters your doing a fantastic job and that's coming from the dude who barely beat you at the start lol I'm glad you stuck to this project man its come out great and hope to see you keep it up
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Paulk1989:
SMH don't down someone's hard work because you didn't get the battery life you wanted. gs2usr has done an amazing job with this ROM by far the most stable JB out there out of all the ones I've tested, yes it may have its flaws but ALL ROMs have flaws. It happens. but really, don't down someone's hard work because of one small issue you had. appreciate their hard work and if you don't like it don't flash it, test appreciate and move the ef on.

gs2usr AWESOME work man Thank You for all your hard work and this awesome ROM. Don't let people like THIS take you down. you've got a massive amount of supporters that love all your hard work and will back you 100%.

BTW: I get amazing battery life with this ROM, all depends on my usage and I know good and well that I range between heavy and light usage. but the battery life is simply great for me.

LED Toggle quit working again? Is there a working torch.apk someone can post that works?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
To be fair, your comparing apples and oranges, you can't compare ics to jelly bean, as people did before with gingerbread and ics, and I'll tell you that gingerbread gave me almost two days of life, but previous versions don't give you the features that the newer firmwares do.

Edit: sorry guys that ib haven't been as involved as of lately, but I'm working 60+ hrs this week so we won't see an update until this weekend.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] number16:
Geez ... a little sensitive aren't we all???

I forgot how many times I've said it's an awesome ROM, and I'm not going back to ICS.

I'm just saying ICS has better battery life than JB, which is a fact, especially for JB ROM that's still in development.

Read again - I said "most CM10 ROMs have worse battery life" ... this applies to all CM10 ROMs

Or am I not allowed to say that here?

In fact, read what I said - I responded to someone who said this ROM has horrible battery life, and I said it's not fair to say this ROM has poor battery life, all CM10 ROMs have worse battery life compared to ICS. I thought I was defending this ROM?!

---------- Post added at 04:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:55 PM ----------

no, 100% agreed, and I hope there's no misunderstanding ... I'm not bashing your hard work or your ROM by any means. It's my daily driver, and I'm not going back bro. Very appreciative of all the work you've poured into it for us.

Still, ICS gives better battery life and when someone's commenting on battery life I think it's only fair I point that out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :
Your points are perspective the life I see between ICS and JB are relatively the same give or take 30 mins or so
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Correlliful:

Has anyone tried this? I love this ROM but the bluetooth thing is a big deal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
Hey guys thought I drop by and show this poor thread some love ,,;)

I'm still at work just hit 15 hrs.:eek:

I've got a test build from our friend roger_n that he built with a test-kernel that is supposed to fix the SOD's hopefully. Once I get home I'll post the link so you guys can give it a try and if its more stable then I'll be building my next update with that kernel as well....

Edit: OP updated, give this build a shot I tested it and can vouch that its working good, don't forget to thank roger_n when you see him around here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
Hey guys I hope my build fixes some of the issue that have been reported. Keep in mind every phone is different so your mileage may vary. I haven't had a SOD in 2 days and the norm for me was once a day I'm guessing some people will probably still report SODs but overall this is a more stable build.

I'm trying to help out gs2usr until he get a break from work wow 15 hour days! As soon he gets a break he'll start posting his builds again.

Thanks Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] number16:
thanks guys for all the great work.

And just wanted to ask .... has the BT headset problem (that is common to many CM10 ROMs) been fixed in this release? With BT headset connected, if a call comes in can I answer through BT? Or do I have to go through the same workaround (which is answer, talk from phone mic, turn BT off, then BT back on?)

it's not a bash against your awesome ROM, I know it's a common CM10 problem, just wanted to know if it's been fixed ... if it isn't yet I'm quite happy with PA2.11! ... and that's my disclaimer :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] x2o:
Thanks for the update Roger! I'll flash this in a bit and see :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] death_knight:
Will test later. Thanks roger_n & gs2user. Your efforts are much appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Brainze:
Just flashed this and was unable to change any settings requiring SU permissions. The pop-up window is entirely too large... :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
I noticed that a lot of the interfaces are large too. But what I did was go into System Settings--> Paranoid Settings--> User Interface--> and I changed the "Workspace" to Tablet mode. I left the System apps and User apps on Phone Mode. You'll have to reboot after changing the Workspace setting.

Then I changed the sizes underneath to the following:

System Apps default size: 200

User Apps Default Size: 190

Statusbar size: 160

Lockscreen size: 190

See if this works for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
@gs2usr do you think the large UI is caused by the modified backup and properties.conf?

EDIT: gs2usr and I were sharing a bunch of files yesterday and the wrong link was provided. I will provide an updated link shortly.

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Brainze:
I understand the ui settings and variances, but I am completely unable to change any of them because the default system ui is way too big... SU pops up in 36+ point font and is HUGE... no access to the allow or deny buttons. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
gs2usr and I were sharing a bunch of files yesterday and the wrong link was accidently provided. I will have an updated link an updated link shortly.

EDIT: Brainze please let me know if this fixed your large UI issue.

Roger

---------- Post added at 11:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:43 AM ----------

The wrong link was posted in the OP please use this one gs2usr will update the OP as soon as he has a chance.

http://d-h.st/DCd

Sorry for the inconvenience

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
The ui being large just has to do with how the default has them set to, as soon as you change your workspace in paranoid settings, and then change the status bar size everything is fine. Every1 just has to change what I just mentioned and will be fine.

@Roger: the link I provided I believe is right, I did flash it last night and tested it before I shared it and it is working just fine, one bug I did find was that the phone freezes when you hit the menu button while having the web browser open.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
So which link is the good one? Or are they both good? The one just posted by Roger or the one in the OP? :eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
I guess we had too many files going back and forth yesterday. The one I wanted you to test is this http://d-h.st/DCd with the jellybean-test branch and modified conf files.

EDIT: I'm not getting any freezes hitting menu with the browser open running the ROM from the link above.

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
Well I'll test it. Why the heck not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] x2o:
I'll flash this one now, flashed the original one posted and am having a strange almost-reboot problem. When I do certain things, i.e. open the play store(but only sometimes), it won't quite reboot, it'll skip the samsung screen and go straight to the PA Boot animation. Then when it starts it doesn't check SD card for errors nor does it have to recatch cell signal.

Strange problem indeed but doesnt matter since it was the wrong build apparently heh :). Also I did a clean wipe cause i suspected the problem was caused by dirty flash at first, so wasn't that :p

Thanks again guys, I like the constant updates :) Only PA can satiate my flashaholic needs
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
Op updated with new link.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] x2o:
still having this issue, going to continue troubleshooting will update if i figure anything out.

It seems to happen when i open things involving my google account so i am going to reflash gapps and see
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
When you install are you formatting system before you install the rom, gapps, and SU? If not i recommend you do.

Roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] x2o:
yep, i always format /system /data /cache and dalvik beforehand when i do a clean install

I think reflashing gapps fixed it, I use 2-step verification on my google account and i flushed the list of trusted computers, i think that's what caused it. Google was deny it access without a new verification code
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
Good I'm glad you sorted it out.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Vissionary:
Just updated to Roger's and I'm getting mild lag and screen flicker. I'm thinking it has to with Instigator's kernel. I wish the stock kernel supported BLN. I can't live without it lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
Weird - the update I installed this morning did support BLN. Normally I'd install Instigator X's kernel but since the stock modded kernel that comes with this ROM was working with BLN I decided against it.

Does this new link contain that same kernel that supports BLN?

---------- Post added at 02:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 PM ----------

Actually no, it doesn't. I just tried it. Oh well. But it worked this morning! The other version definitely supported BLN.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Vissionary:
Well that's odd. I had the previous version installed and it didn't support BLN. So I installed Instigator's kernel. Did you have 2.13 installed?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
Well with the new link/iteration my phone is getting SOD pretty consistently. I think I'll have to go to a backup. Anyone else having issues?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jookdakang23:
woaaah. gs2usr u are no longer maintaining this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
Did you try a clean install?. Just wanna make sure everything was installed correct.

Yeah I'm, this is a test build, I'll be building one myself once I get in front of my PC., since I've been working long hours as of lately, but I should be able to tomorrow.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mhowland24:
Been running it just fine for the last few hours, no flicker, FC, in call volume issue seems to be fixed. Going to test for a few more hours then throw instigators kernel on jphere to see how it goes, appreciate it roger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
If you don't know already on your next build you will be greeted by 2.14:laugh: My repo blew up so I'm in the process of fixing it. On another note 110 downloads of my last build and not too many complaints, I was expecting more as each phone is different and everyone has their own install method.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pooch11:
The only issue I've had is a random SOD here and there...about 2-3 per day. I have never tried the InstigatorX kernal however. Can anyone who's tested either having or not having this kernal if there was any difference in SOD occurrence?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Paulk1989:
The only issues I have noticed this morning is gmail fc when I try to open up an email...and the system settings went from small to huge. If anything else happens I'll report back.

Camera also not saving photos for some odd reason
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] number16:
I have been using instigator X kernel for BLN support and has had rare SOD ... like once a week maybe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
So just to follow up on my previous issues with the current build, I decided to start from scratch. Here are the steps I took:

1- I flashed the I727UCLE2_OneClick to blow everything out of my internal SD card.

2- I let the phone boot up completely.

3- I rebooted into download mode and flashed CWM Touch recovery via Odin

4- Rebooted into Recovery

5- Factory Data Reset (3x)

6- Wipe Cache (3x)

7- Wipe Dalvik Cache (3x)

8- Format System (3x)

9- Format Data (3x)

10- Flashed ICS UCLF6

11- Flashed pa_skyrocket-2.13-19SEP2012-roger_n-JBT

12- Flashed SuperSU-0.93-Busybox-1.20.2

13- Flashed gapps-jb-20120811

14- Rebooted

Obviously my above steps may be slightly excessive but I'd rather take a few extra steps to 'guarantee' a clean flash rather than motoring through the process and ending up with an issue or two. Everyone has their own method that seems to work for them. I look at mine as sort of extreme.

Since then everything has been relatively smooth. I did have one instance where my phone rebooted on its own. In that particular case I was on the phone and using Whatsapp simultaneously. Maybe the multitasking was too much? I dunno.

Since that happened I haven't had any issues. I've flashed the latest InstigatorX kernel for BLN support. I've undervolted by 50. Kept the governor at "Badass". All seems well. The undervolting may cause a SOD at some point. if it does then I'll raise the voltage incrementally.

I've also had to fix permissions in CWM once due to the system not picking up my "media" folder on my internal SD card. I keep notification sounds and such in there. since fixing permissions these media files are being recognized and are usable.

Oh... and Bluetooth is working! Woooooo!

Thanks a lot, guys. This one seems to be a step in the right direction. I really like this ROM. Mostly because it's a little different, has a lot of options, and runs really well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roger_n:
Thanks for the detailed feedback I wish everyone would do the same, instead of just saying x,y, and z are not working. This type of feedback benefits us all. You have also proven that a full-wipe is necessary when you have issues. If I remember correctly in your previous posts you mentioned constant SODs, FC, and BT not working. It now appears most of these are now resolved after your "Super-Wipe" lol.

Question: You said you had one SOD what kernel did you have installed when it happened?

Again Thanks for the feedback.
