Alright might have been covered but I've been following this thread pretty well and didn't really see the answer i was looking for. I keep seeing that i need to be on a cetain kernal to flash this properly? I'm on AOKP now with Siyah 3.4.3 dual booting Shostock 3.1.0..

my question is, what is the best way to change over to this Rom and how does it run with the latest Siyah kernal?

Can i push AOKP the secondary and flash this as primary then reflash Siyah?

any help is appreciated as always.

You can't run an ics kernel on a jb rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] eep2378:
I don't dual boot, so can't help you there. You can safely flash this from Siyah("safe kernel") but this Rom comes packed with its own(Entropy) CM10 kernel which is REQUIRED. You cannot run this rom with siyah kernel.

I setup CM 10.1 on a friend's HTC Inspire 4G a few days ago (HTC bootloader shenanigans aside, JB is teh sexeh on that old hardware). That experience has rekindled my want for some JB on my i777.

I've been following this thread on & off since Entropy started it. If memory serves, media scanner derping has long since been fixed. JB source remains elusive, if it ever comes. That coupled with the exodus of nearly all the Exynos maintainers means there will never be a truly finished, complete CM 10.x build for the i777. There has been some work to write an open-source HAL for the Mali adapter. The Broadcom adapter also has an open-source driver now, I think. The camera is iffy, particularly with video.

So in practical terms, what isn't working 100% ... understanding there will never be a proper HWComposer implementation. (I know nandroid and try it ... just hoping someone will be kind enough to speak to the items below).

1) NFC

2) Bluetooth - AD2P? PAN?

3) Camera - video recording? (the ability to record video w/ sound as on ICS)

4) WiFi - AP?

5) USB Tethering

6) HTML5 video and Flash (don't care about Netflix, just embedded HTML5 videos and one Flash site for which I switch to the stock browser)

7) Video calling aka Skype/Tango

Seems a number of people use this as a daily driver ... but then couch that with something akin to "I've never needed to use [broken feature], so it's no big deal for me" etc.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RootTheMachine:
1-5 & 7 should be no problem, I use them all with no issues. However I have no experience with flash since I never need it, but I think some have gotten it to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] msgfromside3:
You can search for flash since there were a few discussions about it. In short, flash is not supported. I believe there is a way to make it work, but I don't know - never need it. I can't exactly recalled if I tried to watch Youtube from the stock browser, but I think youtube works via html5.

I completely forgot that Flash isn't supported on Jellybean. Thanks for the reminder. It's not a showstopper ... just a minor inconvenience.

Yes, flash works, but it isn't a rom problem, it isn't supported on any jelly bean ROM. There is a version that works.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] csmall:
I understand the clock not working correctly to be a known issue but I'm unclear as to if it is something that can be fixed or if it is just an issue that we have to deal with for the foreseeable future.

Things that depend on date and time get goofed up when I reboot and the clock changes. I always have to fix it manually.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stone_ship:
I think it might be an native Android 4.2+ issue. Anyway, as a workaround, I have the automatic stuff unchecked and use ClockSync to sync at boot.

I've been running CM10.1 for a few weeks now and just tried the Wifi AP for the first time today. It appeared to turn on properly on the device, and the network was visible, but I could not connect a laptop nor my Nexus 7 to the access point. It previously worked fine with CM10.

I searched a bit and did not see any reference other than this post ... is WiFi AP working properly for anyone else? Or is it a known issue that it's broken? I apologize for bringing this up if it's been addressed already.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] elherr:
It works for me. Seems to be a little delay for my laptop (running Debian Linux) to see wifi SSID from phone, but once it does I can connect. 3G signal is pretty rotten at my house though... ping RTT to Google is 1.5 seconds.

I have been recently noticing the ril crashes from the 4.2.2 update and it seems to there in other phones with new cm10.1 like i9100 and others.

When ever the signal bar shows x mark in it, i checked the imei no. it even shows blank.

I recently had a major problem with i9100 of imei no and efs totally crashed or corrupted and afraid this might even be coming to my phone.

Is there any permanent solution to this as i had never heard and faced this in pre 4.2.2 versions
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
No. It's been a problem since I9100 update7 kernel sources. We hoped I9100 JB kernel would fix it, but it didn't.

It's not an EFS problem, so fortunately not permanent. The interface between the CPU and the modem dies. Sometimes it can be soft reset, sometimes it needs a full reboot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] elherr:
It is interesting that I have not had a single instance of this happening after JB kernel and RIL lib update. Zilch, nada, zip. Phone has never been unlocked and it is currently on 0316.

On another note, I think I see what is going on with Exynos EXIF. I need to set up Android build environment and refresh my knowledge of C though. It has been about 15 years since writing anything aside from trivial build fixes. I need more hours in the day...

Thanks. I try to contribute as I can but my programming background was in the distant past. Over the years I've moved into a network engineer role with telecom companies. Writing code is not required.

Entropy512,

This is a fuzz off topic...but its kinda slow in here so whats that harm right?

After reading an article on AndroidCentral.com about how you guys and the CM team do not plan on supporting the SGS4...my question to you is what phone(s) this year do you believe will be the leaders in dev support and overall "kings" of AOSP ROM availability....excluding the Nexus line...as removable batteries and SD cards are somewhat important to me.

Ive had it in my head for a while now that the Galaxy S4 would be my next phone...having skipped the S3...and continuing to rock the S2. However this information has really made me rethink my future smartphone plans. AOSP is where its at for me...and I def prefer it over OEM skins and variations.

Any help is appreciated...and thanks for your continued support of our "old-ish" but still capable i777. :highfive:

BA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rk249:
You should re-read the article, its been updated with the a statement from CM team. No one ever said that CM wont be supporting S4 it was just 1 dev talking about himself and TeamHacksung, there was no mention of CM team.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] badams1:
I was unaware of that...just read it once this morning.

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stone_ship:
I don't think one should read any optimism into that statement either though. That's just CM reiterating it's policy. Team hacksung has spent 1000s of hours working with Samsung hardware. Take away the combined contributions of Entropy, codeworkx, xplodwild, and espenfjo, and what do you have left? I think there will be plenty of Touchwiz ROMS, but Samsung and AOSP will continue to diverge.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] elherr:
I'm guessing that the US variant of S4 with Qualcomm SoC might get something? From what I have read no one wants to have anything to do with Exynos SoC. 8 cores in Exynos 5 but that will not be coming to the US.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stone_ship:
You sure you want to give up that view?:p I feel your pain. I've moved 6 times in the last 10 years. 8 if you count cross town moves within the same city.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sbrown23:
Good point. Hoping that the US version of the GS4 with the Snapdragon 600 will get some developer love. Or are there still issues, other than the SoC, with the Snapdragon-based devices that will cause major ROM development problems?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stone_ship:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rk249:
I totally agree with you, I was just pointing out that it wasn't the CM making that statement. The phrasing used by some blogs made it seem like the CM said that they wont be supporting S4. This is the last Samsung phone I'm gonna buy. From here on out its all Nexus all the time.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Just us (teamhacksung) - we don't and NEVER have made statements on behalf of the CM team. Nothing prevents a new maintainer from picking up Exynos5 and running with it (other than the fact that, in my opinion, they will fail or give up and sell the device unless Samsung makes major changes.)

Steve himself will be working on one of the Qcom variants, and I would expect the Qcom GS4 variants to be well supported because of this and because of CodeAurora. That said, it's impossible to predict the future and often you can hit unexpected surprises. If stable CM10/10.1 is critical to you - purchase a device that already has it.

Right now, not a single current maintainer has expressed interest in the Exynos-based GS4. Does that mean it will never be supported? No. Does that mean it's not likely to be well supported? Yes. Can a new maintainer step up? Yes. Do I expect them to succeed? No, considering of the 4 core Exynos4 maintainers and the (I would estimate) 10-15 or so frequent contributors, all of them are ditching Exynos.

Personally, I have an Xperia Z and I love it... But it's proving to be unobtainium in the USA. (I'm going to be rather annoyed with Sony if only the ZL goes on sale in the USA...) The ZL will receive far less developer attention but it's similar enough to the Z that it should be reasonably well supported if even one semi-competent maintainer makes it their primary device.

There's a possibility I might get an Oppo Find5 for hacking purposes, kind of indeterminate now. I'm VERY wary of Chinese manufacturers, but some people in Oppo claim to care... But after my experiences with Samsung, there's a big difference between claiming to support developers and actually delivering the goods.

They're so stubborn they've shot me down already, they will not even talk about it. Not to mention even though I'm 18 now I still can't afford my own cell phone bill/contract so I'm stuck with them and AT&T.

AT&T only replaces phones within one year of purchase and only if it isn't apparent that it's due to damage (I had to replace my first SGSII when I dropped it from 2.5 ft, and they asked about scratches and the liquid damage indicator). If a Nexus comes DOA you can of course get it replaced. Getting a good phone on contract when it comes out and then immediately selling it should net you enough money to get a Nexus, and I don't see why your parents would be against a free phone. If they don't want to talk about it just run in the room shouting "YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY FOR A PHONE FOR ME!!!" and flail your arms around for effect. That usually works.

You should be glad that they are still paying for your phone. Work to earn for yourself and you will find out how hard it is to make money (relatively speaking).
