Flashed base ok, but my SD won't read to flash the update. Couldn't restore Nandroid. Stuck in bootloop. My fault for trying to squeeze this in before a 4-meeting day. GRRR.

edit: message in CWM says can't mount backup path. May have started because I lost touch recovery. I have CWM premium, but touch sometimes fails to restore and it isn't a straightforward path to get it back without paying for it again.

edit 2: was able to Odin touch (thanks for the thread Vincom!). For whatever reason my SD now mounts. Restoring Nandroid. I'll revisit f6 tonight.

Great work as usual! Unfortunately my phone is stuck in a bootloop after flashing the base. It just stays on the new bootanimation. I have wiped data, cache, and dalvik, formatted system, cache, and data,and flashed the rom 3 times. Anyone else having this issue or is it just me. Thanks.

Hi Sean!

Provide more instructions to migrate from 4.2f sky ics please. If I should made wipes? Or just flash over?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] deezhemi:
Since this is a new base and it's made from the AT&T Official (4.2f is Rogers Official), if I were you I'd assume as full wipe for a good flash.

Should, the kernel is ICS based
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vwyankee:
This is a different ROM entirely. Yes, it's still ICS but not the same as the Rogers build so I wouldn't try mixing the two.

A general notice to folks - If you've installed other ICS builds by Seanz I think it's safe to say you should not stray from instructions of the other builds. He's been working hard at this and quickly got this build up. If you're not already familiar with the typical Seanz ICS ROM flashing process:

Go to Recovery and WIPE:

Factory Data Reset (3x)

Cache (3x)

System (3x)

Install base and reboot

Let settle for 5 minutes before touching anything

Open the apps and launch BusyBox and choose to install it within the app

Login to Google account via Play Store but don't update anything yet

Reboot to recovery again

Wipe cache

Install update and any other add-on zips (as of this post there aren't any listed for this build)

Reboot and run Fix Permissions in ROM Manager

Reboot one last time

It flashed fine for me with the above typical process. I tried both the AOSP Lockscreen zip from 4.2E and 4.3F (Rogers) but the System UI did not like that so I'll wait until Seanz makes one for this build.

...and voted for ya. Keep up the great work as always.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JERM^:
so is this the official update from AT&T? is the radio supposedly better or just customized for the ATT users? should I be trying this instead of the previous UCLF3 base as a Rogers user? Any benefits? or any useless benefits?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Wickidmasshole:
This is the official att release, i tried all SKY ICS releases and i cant tell much of a difference from this one to the rogers release except for the fact the "dragons" base is completely stripped down to the bare minimum, just how i like it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mimart7:
You'll need to download it from google play.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rebel1699:
Be patient with the play store for a while. It took more than 15 minutes for mine to settle down enough to work correctly. I actually went to the store on the pc and sent the download of Rom Manager from there. Saved me some time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] deezhemi:
I have (finally) figured out which XML file to modify to fix the black text on black background for the Contact widget. I changed it to white to match the theme in the main contact list.

You can download the CWM flashable ZIP file here:

Updated Contacts

I was able to flash with no wipe and it took fine. If it doesn't work straight off, try wiping cache. If it still doesn't work, try wiping dalvik as well.

EDIT: Corrected the black text for the addresses now as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] KangKilla:
Just a question... but why do you suggest using rom manager to fix permissions instead of CWM? This might be what broke the back button maybe? Sometimes back won't exit the browser or go back but only sometimes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] deezhemi:
In the past CWM didn't do a great job of fixing permissions. I have always used Rom Manager.

Rom Manager was removed from the Dragon base as a part of debloating. Simply download it from the Play Store.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Xenocide83:
You need to download ROM Manager from the Play Store but the permissions need to be fixed BEFORE you flash any updates or addons or you run the risk of having issues

---------- Post added at 11:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 AM ----------

ROM Manager is constantly getting updated while CWM is not usually updated that often. I know that my CWM version (Touch 5.8~) has been the same for the past few months while ROM Manager has had a couple of updates since then. I'm not having any issues with any portion of Sean's amazing Dragon ROM. Perhaps you may need to start over? I'm not sure of the exact steps you went through or what version of CWM you are using. Have you tried a different Kernel? I am running Cymbaline 1.5 myself.

So Samsung lost in the U.S. today a few miles away from Apple headquarters. Seems as though pending an appeal we may be without standard basic features that Apple is attempting to rid other devices of. One of these is pinch to zoom. Samsung has said officially that this will stifle functionality of U.S. devices. I'm figuring if Samsung and Google need to they're only going to get rid of these features in phones the ship the U.S. I assume that pple that use custom roms like us will still be able to access and utilize these features right? God I despise Apple. When is Google's notification bar patent gonna go through and take ti to Apple. Then I hear Google and Apple are getting together to buy Kodak patents?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
My network operates under 2 frequencies, 850 and 2100. At home I have around -65 dbm on 850 and around -100 on 2100, for some reason the phone will use 2100 a lot of the time thus rendering me almost signaless. So by using a RAT unlocked I can force the phone to stay on 850 and get great reception all the time.

If I try to start the FB app it just not responding. Also system frozed all timy when FB try to sinchronize.

Also I can't set up the twitter account with same symotoms.

And they only get worse, your launcher will start hanging and for me it was doing it when I tried to unlock the phone. super annoying.

You'll need to reflash your radio once you reload the rom

Titanium + dropbox = not finishing upload

Hi Everyone,

Is anyone else having a problem with Titanium backup with this ROM? I'm running a nightly job that backs up and pushes the files over to Dropbox, I have also tried google drive with similar results. The backup works fine, but the upload dies after about 5-10 minutes of uploading. It gives me an error that the file is too large (Dropbox) and just a connection error with Google drive. I didn't notice this happening prior to the 2.7 build. I have plenty of space on my DB account to accommodate the couple hundred meg a full backup generates, and if I copy the backup from my device --> PC --> DB it works fine as well. I don't appear to be losing the network connection, it just pukes. I have uninstalled and re-installed both DB and Titanium pro but that doesn't seem to do anything. I've sent a ticket off to the Titanium folks but have not gotten any response since I sent it a week ago. Any thoughts??

I didn't wipe internal or external and did a fresh flash over. Got tw fc' s for a day and google maps fc's but in the background so no big deal. Now its settled no fc's. I tend to try to just iron out fc's with time and it works.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] androidsc:
In most cases that works just fine, bit after multiple power cycles with fix perms being ran, there has to be a deeper issue.

And fyi, a flash is only fresh if you wipe your SD cards. Over time data gets stuck on your SD (internal especially) and sometimes isnt cleared when you factory data/reset in recovery. What you get is leftover data from prior rom iterations. This leftover data can wreak havoc on your phone w/o you knowing till the fc storm starts, or other oddities.
