[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] DoctorQMM:
Thx for reply. Was wondering if the 2.3b update had the transparency or not. If transparent, do we just reflash one of the non-transparent addons he posted to fix the 2.2b transparency issue.

EDIT It's all good. Viewed contents of the 2.3b Update zip and there is no framework-res.apk or systemUI.apk. I flashed 2.3b update and all works to perfection... I still have the non-transparent menus/popups and retained all my status bar custom PNGs I swapped in framework-res and systemUI.

Thanks Sean... stellar work as always!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] *system error*:
I did a format of my internal like SeanZ mentioned the other day. Started off with dragon 2.2a just flashed 2.3b.

It is displayed 2.3b in about phone...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Bruno2123:
Oh yeah they will work in getting rid of it. I already had transparent popups when i flashed so they were still there after then i flashed aosp without and it worked then i flashed 2.3b over that and there was still non transparent so dont think they change from what you have already but even if they do a quick flash and your back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] STROMAS:
I saw this awhile back but not sure if there was a fix, I was wondering if there was a way to remove the "swipe to unlock" that overlays the att on the lock screen? Running regular sky ics (non-dragon) version with the lastest and greatest 2.3 update. Any help or info is greatly appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] marvin02:
Settings->Display->uncheck the box by "help text"

BTW - that is not specific to SKYICS.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] stoopendis:
Go to settings-display-uncheck help text.

Is anybody else having issues with running Chrome on SKY-ICS? Ever since I flashed Dragon, I've been having continual issues trying to run Chrome. 9/10 times that I try to access any website, Chrome gives me the "Oops" error page. I think it's something to do with this build, as I can run Chrome perfectly on my TF101.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Bruno2123:

Whenever I try opening tw launcher

my phone always freezes up I tried clearing data and fixing permissions I'm on the dragon base could have anything to do with it

Allow me to get this off my chest (again). Stop fighting with the damn TW launcher. There are three excellent alternatives. GO Launcher EX, Apex, or Nova. Unless you enjoy frustration.

What lockscreen allows for you to add more shortcuts? I like the one that comes with SKY ICS 2.3 but I would like to add MMS to the circle. So I would have camera, MMS and unlock. THanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] enterflux:
I agree with those previously posted. I don't understand why anyone wants TW Launcher anyways, so I suggest you go with a market launcher. I personally am running Nova Prime and I absolutely love it!

Edit:

Get Widget Locker. Best lockscreen, IMO. It's got exactly what you're looking for already built in to it, but you can also use tons of different custom launchers that you find elsewhere.

What's the best kernal/radio combo for battery life? Currently I'm on cymbaline 1.5 and ucle2 radio
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mex2309:
Thanks for the input... just to reiterate, coming from 1.9 I should install UPDATE 2.3A and this will bring me up to speed?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Bruno2123:
Stock kernel uclf6 is the best for battery life and radio all depends where you live so test them all for the best connection
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cjd80:
yes. some of 2.3A you'll already have, but flashing those same files again isn't going to hurt anything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] abecvar0627:
Hi all. I'm coming from SKY-ICS 4.2F-7B on my SGS-I727 (not Rodgers). I am wondering, do I have to flash the base on this, or can I just go straight to the 2.3A update? Also,what are the differences between this ROM and the 4.2F-7B?

thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Dimarini:
Any Kernel but Cymbaline will be better battery life. :laugh:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] car vs driver:
Agreed. This has been beaten to death in his thread. I'm using Go Launcher and it is rock solid fwiw.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tonyfiore75:
Just to confirm, none of the kernels available for this ROM support BLN aside from the Cymbaline kernel, right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Xenocide83:
You have to flash the base first
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] smalis:
Cymbaline 1.5 was a battery killer for me, I think due to the BLN, but Cymbaline 1.6 (which does not have BLN) seems to be working very nicely, with OC and UV support.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chicagoraw:
Is there a way to add text message option on the lock screen without getting some app like widget locker? maybe next update or an addon?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jack45:
If I'm understanding you correctly, yes - at least with the lockscreen labeled: TW WITH COLORED ICONS NON TRANS. I've put my name and phone number on it.

Settings, Security, Screen Security, Owner information

Unless you want to be able to send a text message from the lockscreen :confused:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] fishlipsboy:
I'm on 2.2, I noticed today that I tried to invite people to an event on my calendar and when the mail client attempts to send the request, I get an undeliverable because it is defaulting to the person's name, instead of the person's e-mail. for example, I want to invite Robin Sparkles from my contacts to a party that I have on my calendar so i add her to the attendees from my contact list and when i save the event, I get an e-mail in my mailbox saying undeliverable: Robin Sparkles is not a valid e-mail address blah blah blah.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
Yes, just know you'll have to redo any themes you have. Otherwise you could flash all the updates on the way which is the annoying way.

Testing cymbaline 1.6 at the moment without uc/uv battery life is still pretty bad and there are tons of alarm manager wakelocks. Don't think I'll even bother uc/uv to see if there's a difference in the battery life, I'll just go back to sean's kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] christianxin:
it depends . take a look page 158 , he test f5 kernel get almost double the battery life .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rccar:
I tried 1.6 but it kept giving me installation aborted, tried to download multiple times in case of bad download, but with all aborting
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rccar:
Any UV scripts I can install for these modded kernels?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Bruno2123:
Ok i should have just said stock but all the stock kernel should get the same battery its really impossible to test kernels battery life except cymbaline. I think everybody sees 20 hour plus screenshots of battery and people saying light to moderate use its easy to get those times dont turn your screen on if your screen on time is only a hour or so your going to get good battery life if you dont have emails getting pushed and facebook and weather updates and widgets going you will get great battery life thats more important then what stock kernel you use.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
UV and OC are only possible on cymbaline kernel. On stock you can just UC, the values you'll see will be wrong but it will still run as UC.

Completely wiped, redownloaded the zips just in case, installed base, followed directions to a T for updating superuser and busy box, installed 2.3a update, fixed permissions, ect. ect.. I downloaded two test apps from the market. Moved them and one stock app to external_sd card, put them in folders. When I reboot the apps on external_sd are no longer in folders. Tried with a few sd cards to elimate the possibility of a bad sd. Apps do work though while sitting on ext_sd. Am I the only one having this problem that apps on sd card wont stay in folders?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] enterflux:
It may be from my faulty updating. I jumped from 1.6 from 2.2 using the B update, but from a post I read in this thread today, apparently I should've used the A update. You might want to clarify that in your OP so that future users can understand that too. :)

You might think about reading post 3. It specifically states when to use which update and what each changes.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] daviebeach:
Question: why are you putting apps into folders?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] enterflux:
I did read post 3, and it says nothing about if you're jumping multiple updates.

All it speaks of is A is for people "who just installed the ROM" and B is for "if you are successfully running the update." Now that I have some knowledge on it already, I can see how this can be described, but it is unclear for those of us who are new to Android flashing. A should include something along the lines of "IF YOU JUST INSTALLED THE ROM OR ARE MULTIPLE UPDATES BEHIND."

ps: Thanks for the sarcasm guys. I'm just trying to be helpful to others who might be in my situation. Sheesh. -_-
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] speeddevil:
Because I don't like 15 pages of apps, and its much easier, simpler, and more organized to put all my music apps into a folder called "music" and all my games into a folder called "games." I thought this was standard practice?

You're not the first person to ask this question. It's obvious you didn't search very much.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] enterflux:
Okay, fine. I guess I "didn't search very much," but you're telling me that it's a dumb idea to make this information readily accessible with all of the other instructions so that anybody who's new to this ROM can find the answer easily?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Voiid:
Thank you Sean for working on the red theme! :D

My favorite thing about this red theme is that apps that are not ics optimized used to show the ugly 2.3 gingerbread colors which were extremely ugly in my opinion but now they are showing up as red! Omg I love it!

I think you should do that for the default rom make everything ics blue or samsung blue for the 2.3 ginger bread apps that currently aren't ics optimized. Apps like K9 Mail, Simple Notepad, ect.

That would make my mine blown :D

I am loving this redness nonetheless :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Datron:
So you moved the apk itself to the external sd, such as coolapp.apk, and then created home screen folders on your rom for categorized apps?

Or did u make actual folders on ur external sd, like "games" that has game1.apk, game2.apk, and game3.apk?

How did u move the apps to the external sd? I don't think u can simply copy and paste them. I think it needs to be done with something like titanium backup. I'm not certain about this tho, does anyone know?

Void, Plz post screenies of coke ics.

Hey Sean, is it possible to grab what I assume must be the default CM9 lock screen? It looks just like the AOSP one but let's me customize it and add other quick unlock features? Possible? I noticed this on my friends CM9 phone and loved it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] speeddevil:
I'm talking about when you goto settings, applications, select desired app, and move to sd. This is done to save space on the phone, and many other reasons. Here are the folders the apps will no longer stay in once this is done.

Here is some screen shots of the sky coke when it was 75% done.

1st screen shot: themed dialer

2nd screen shot: themed drop down status bar

3rd: themed icons but some are missing (this is not finished yet guys ;) )

4th: this is the recent apps i was just trying to show the red glow when you reach the edge of a list :D

5th: on dialogs that aren't ics optimized it has a red glow :)

Remember this is still unfinished. But for those people that want to see what it looks like so far..here you go.

Also, sean stated that he changed the clock to white and changed the status icons and the wifi signal.

:)

Edit: my screen shots were attachments..they were showing up fine but then after like five minutes they aren't showing up...i hope they start showing again. Idk this might be a xda bug...hmm. I think i can only have 5 screen shots, so i removed 2.

Actually my screen time was better than this since I used my phone down to 3%, but I didn't get a screenie when it was that low...

Yep, just about an hour of screen on-time. LOL

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Bruno2123:
SIGH! ok your right using a app to lower your on screen brightness far below minimum will give you better battery life but it has nothing to do with uclf5 vs uclf6 so if you want 7 hours on screen time download screen filter or lux brightness and drop that brightness to the point you can barely read but just switching your kernel isnt going to magically turn your 15 hour battery life to 30 so can we get back to answering real problems sean has made this great rom and im sure he has tried tons of different combos and im sure if he found uclf5 was godly we would know by now but its not they use all the same info mohan has even looked into uclf6 to see if he can add stuff to cymbaline and from his last message there was nothing new

I switched to the UCLF5 kernel earlier today to give it a shot. It was doing really well for a while there, and actually wiped out the wakelocks that had been plaguing me on UCLF6. Thing is, within the last hour, Maps has gone on a wakelock frenzy and is sabotaging my battery like crazy. No choice but to freeze it and navigation and find another mapping app, unfortunately.

Once I get Maps cold and shuttered, I think I'll finally have my phone where I want it in terms of battery life. UCLF5 and JuiceDefender, as a combo, definitely worked for me to shut down those pesky wakelocks.
