10/7 nightly working like a champ! Thanks TC for the hard work! :D

Is apex that much better than the default launcher? No problems at all with the default launcher..

I am using Sk8's recovery and everything stock from Top. No new launcher, no kernel update, etc...

The only change I have made is I changed to SuperSU by Chainfire and that is just a preference that should not affect performance...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] steadly2004:
Thanks guys. I want to get this phone very stable to give to my wife. I have a note on the way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Anon_:
There isn't a change log for 10/7 or 10/8 so I wonder what changed.

CM updater is not detecting 10/8.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
If you stick with tops kernel and CM10 build, it will be fine for your wife. The things we notice, she will probably never even notice.

Just keep the nightly builds updated and if you run into a problem, just roll back until the break gets fixed or come back to XDA and see whats up.

I used to do all the patching, etc... but I have decided that does not help top with what we are trying to do. I stay with his builds now and report a true experience as I can... no camera apps, launchers, etc....

Good luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] joeclark:
I have to agree this is just about the most stable nightly I've ever used. I wished the stay awake feature was active
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
You have mentioned that before, what are you trying to achieve Joe?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ossito2012:
My experience so far:

- 10/5, 10/6, 10/8 worked nice

-10/7 stuck on CM logo, maybe corrupt file from slow downloads

-battery not terribly great but need more time playing with phone to really tell

For those yet to flash reading this, you will need updated CWM or TWRP recovery before proceeding, also you will not have instigatorX, the kernel of all kernels. The downloads are very slow for nightlies and often get disconnected (resume not allowed on server) so make sure your file is whole and complete.

I love this nightly but depending on battery I may have to go back to CM9 w/InstaX kernel.

CM10/8 nightly w/Apex Launcher
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
You probably need to change what cm updater is looking for - ie all updates including nightlies :)

CM 10 Nightlies 10/8
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] topprospect:
UCLF6 is the only radio that I have tested CM10 with, so I highly suggest upgrading to that specific version.

maxlayer = 3 is required to enable hardware composition of layers. Setting maxlayer = 1 is basically disabling hardware acceleration. We *should* be using 3 for max performance, but I agree, that 1 may hide some problems that need to be debugged.

Dang, good find. I'll add it to the list of known issues. I don't see anything obvious in the logs and I checked with a couple other device maintainers. They don't have the issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
I am just throwing this out there once again....

I have been VERY GUILTY of flashing new kernels, patches, add sons, launchers and apps to "fix" what I thought needed to be fixed.

This is not really helping Top find and fix what needs to be fixed...

In respect to him and his work, if you are changing up things in your ROM that is your choice but also it is really YOUR problem at that point.

I have committed to roll through all the "issues" and have a pure Official CM 10 experience. I hope it results in a pure and complete experience and helpful to Top and other device maintainers...

" I don't always flash CM10 on my Skyrocket, but when I do - its the Official CM10 by Team Chopsticks!"

Love that from the Meme.... opened my eyes to what I was trying to do here on XDA....

Off my soapbox... sorry guys... :rolleyes:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Captivasion:
I'm very pleased with how much of a hit that was. Especially when Top shared it on his Google+.

I'm on the 10/7 nightly and I couldn't get it to work. It worked fine on CM9 so I imagine we'll have it on CM10 before long.

Awesome work. I loaded this last night.wiped 3 times. So far its amazing. Animations are smooth and battery life is so much better. Haven't had any sod or random reboots yet. Will update if anything happens. Thanks so much for the release and the hard work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluerap04:
Just want to mirror this post. I am experiencing all of the same improvements over AOKP, a ROM that I love, but unfortunately for me doesn't cooperate very well with my phone (yet).

Smooth as butter, no sods, no reboots. Finally feels like a complete daily driver with a JB ROM. Big thanks to everyone involved.

It works for me if I set all Window Animation scale settings to 1.0x in developer options.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] steadly2004:
Works for me. I did do a full wipe (internal SD)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluerap04:
Hmmm, so I'm not crazy to think that I saw it do a CRT-off once. But it only happened once.

All of my animation scales are set to 1x in Developer options.

But I didn't fully wipe from 10/7 to 10/8 (used CM updater). I think I will for the next nightly.

edit: meant 10/6 to 10/7. Have not updated to 10/8. Can also confirm that 10/8 doesn't show up in the CM updater either (perhaps because there's no change from 10/7 to 10/8 as mentioned earlier).

edit again: Ok I lied, 10/8 IS in the updater. Dunno what I saw earlier :silly:

aaaand another edit: Upgraded to 10/8 with the updater. CRT-off works!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Firedcylinder:
In response to bluerap: crt is a bit wonky on 10/5. Sometimes it does it, sometimes it doesn't.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Apsidal:
shaggyskunk,

I'm a total noob - just wanted to contribute another data point. I got the flicker-freeze when I opened a book in Google Play Books and hit the Menu button. I also experienced it hitting Menu with a few different apps on the paranoidandroid ROM (and also the Google Translate language dropdown). I didn't have it with the 1006 nightly, but did with 1007 and 1008. I found your solution of changing maxlayer to 1 and it worked (Google Books no longer flicker-freezes). I suppose per Top's comment, I should change it back to 3 once the bug is fixed. Thanks!!

Anyone else having issues underclocking via the performance tab in CM10 nighty? Tried system tuner as well, same result. Doesn't stick at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gargoyle_48770:
stupidity

Talk about wanting to kick myself. i upgraded to cm10-1008 from cm9 and i started getting wifi problems(wifi would disconnect if in sleep mode for any number of time). now sense i don't really have anything pulling from servers when i am not using the phone it just was a annoyance when i pulled it out of sleep. i when i get annoyed i start to tinker than it became a obsession on figuring out why it would do that. after tinkering with it for three hours i went into wifi set up and wanted to smack myself there is a box there for keeping wifi on when in sleep mode (always,only plugged in,never) mine was set at only plugged in, oh well glad it was nothing major.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Here's an update on the flicker freeze issue. With bone stock cm10 it doesn't happen.

After doing a fresh download of almost all of my apps, with the exception of kaiten email & beautiful widgets - after switching to Apex launcher, and then pressing the power button to reboot - the phone locks on the flicker freeze & I have to pull the battery.

I've uploaded two alogcat files to pastebin - one when maxlayer = 3 & the other with maxlayer = 2

If Top finds them to be useful - great & thanks! :)

Edit As soon as I restore Apex's data settings - THAT'S the problem for me - desktop setting restore is fine. Anyway, I hope that this helps someone else :)

I've had this for 3 days and the battery life is absolutely terrible. I was on Embryo and was getting 16-24 hours on a charge. some usage now gets me 3-6 tops. Is there something I am missing about a kernal or something?

Thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Anon_:
Check which CPU governor setting you are on in settings>performance>processor. ONDEMAND will give better battery life.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluerap04:
Yea it's actually been wonky for me on 10/8 as well, whereas it was working great at first. I'll have to go with a full wipe on the next update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aycockonxion:
Just flashed 10/8 and I like it a lot so far! No RR's or SOD's, but it's only been about an hour.

So, I can't find the CRT-off anywhere in the ROM. Is there a trick?

Hit the power button bruh.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluerap04:
lol yes, what copene said. It's still a little buggy, works when it feels like it, but it was suggested earlier that a full wipe makes it work properly. Did you wipe fully?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
Not sure why you would have that bad of battery life. Can you post your battery screen?

Also, Better Battery Stats will help you figure out wake locks...

Are you on WiFi or 4G? What is your coverage like?

Proper radio flashed?

You should get better batt than 3-5 hours.... are you flashing and fiddling with your ROM? Lots of screen time?

I am also getting horrible battery life. If I reboot to get around wakelock stuff, it can idle ok, but it drains faster during normal use than it used to.

That's my only complaint though. While I have managed to get a couple reboots they did at least reboot successfully unlike before AND it's been 3 days since I had any, so they're obviously very infrequent.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
That is weird that your battery life is so bad.... is it with included kernel?

Have you modded anything else on it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ozziedog:
So what's the difference in 10/7 and 10/8. I'm on 10/7 and haven't had any problems. Running like a top, should I expect something to happen?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] copene:
Guys if you're having garbage bag battery, wipe the thing clean and restart. That's what I did when the nightlies started and I'm getting a full day of use out of it no problem. Calls, texts, and of course messing around like crazy.

No, and you can read the change log on bbqlog :)

CM10 Nightly 10/9
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] UZ7:
As the status of the rom, "nightlies" they are compiled on a nightly basis and usually uploaded in the mornings. Regardless if there are any changes or not they will always have a new build for the following day. CM9 is on a weekly basis so every weekend they release another build, again with or without changes. If you bring up the full CM10 log there are a lot of changes for that day but if it doesn't pertain to your device most likely your rom will not include it. If that was the case then our roms would be like 900mb (not really) lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Danmanlott:
Wifi and 4g are on, but they were on my last rom too. Very little screen time maybe 15 minutes total. I don't fiddle around, I flashed the right radio for att.

Anybody having issues with camcorder flickering during recording? I first had it on the 10/5 nightly, and continues on the 10/9. It's only on some recordings but it's not just the display, it records it to the video.

Otherwise,i get a flicker but no freeze when bringing up menus in Play Music, otherwise this has been super solid.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
As UZ7 said, although there are nightly builds, it doesn't mean that there will be any differences between today's & tomorrow's build. It's also possible that tomorrow's build may introduce a fault that did previously not occur.

Just curious.... when/if will we see the 4.1.2 update that came out today in CM10?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] UZ7:
Its being merged atm.

http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#skyrocket/cm10/next

As for actually seeing any changes? less likely as the update was targeted to nexus7/tablet to have the rotation features. Though it could mean just having the files/source up to date.

I know S3's AOKP JB & Kernels are already up to date w/ 4.1.2 (that guy is a beast lol).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
Yeah, I saw some notification changes ... looked really cool....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Wow!!! CM10 10/10 !! Smooth & Clean!!

Don't know all the changes in this update - but the change log looked extensive and is this Nightly ever refined - Hard to believe that it's not ready to be released as "Stable" !

Thanks Top, Team Chopsticks, CyanogenMod and ALL the others that contribute to this!:thumbup::beer::)

EDIT: This explains it - 4.1.2! :P

CM10 Nightly 10/10 4.1.2 Awesome!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluerap04:
Wiped everything 10x and flashed CM101010. Runs great, but believe it or not I've got a little flicker here and there (ie. opening Google Now) whereas I didn't with any of the previous nightlies. No biggie :)

Oh and still no CRT-off for me :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Yeah, I have seen the very occasional flicker, but it's REALLY fast & then it's gone - Just a very tiny tweak from absolute perfection :)

CM10 Nightly 10/10 4.1.2 Awesome!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] copene:
reading about 4.1.2 on Engadget then waking up with it ready to be installed on my phone is pretty sick. Another thing that is amazing about this ROM is that I'm a 160dpi guy and you don't need to overwrite the phone.apk every time you update like you had to in CM9, it just works.

Creating a file named: local.prop in /data and within it typing: "qemu.sf.lcd_density=160" without the quotations will keep your dpi settings too so you don't have to change them after every nightly. You can change the "160" to whatever you prefer. This way you don't have to mess with build.prop in /system either.

Awesome work gents.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aycockonxion:
Don't bro me unless you know me. It might occur to you that, maybe, I'd hit the ol' power button a few times.

Yes I did full wipe. And no, it doesn't work at all.

EDIT: I saw it CRT-off once with 10/10. It was the first time I hit the power button after it updated. Hasn't done it since LOL. But I have to say, 4.1.2 is NICE though!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
There's no such creature as "the right radio for at&t". You have to try different ones to see which performs best in your locale. It's more like "the right radio for your area of coverage."

If the radio you were running previously provided a good signal and you had decent battery life, you should flash back to it and leave it alone on future ROM flashes.

I just switched over from CM9 to CM10 today and keep getting random reboots. I formatted everything but did restore apps with titanium backup. Could this be the cause of the boot loops?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
What recovery are you using?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cmlohff:
I'm using CWMT 6.0.1.4
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aycockonxion:
Did you do the App+Data restore? Either way, I don't think that would cause your issue.

Are you sure you wiped and formatted everything? That sounds more like the type of issue you're having.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cmlohff:
I restored the apps and data. When I did the install I did the factory reset, /emmc wipe, /system wipe and deleted the /Android folder from /sdcard. After flashing the radio, cm10 and gapps I did a cache wipe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Captivasion:
Did you restore system apps as well as user apps?

I'm not sure if that would be the cause or not tho.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cmlohff:
I only restored user apps. I made sure to not restore system apps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Captivasion:
Then I think you can eliminate that as a cause of your problem.

It sounds to me like you've used the correct process to install it. I'm updating to the latest nightly now to see if it gives me any problems, but I'm sure we would've heard from a lot more people by now if it did.

Are you getting both random reboots and boot loop?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cmlohff:
Yes. I get a random reboot that turns into a boot loop that eventually will boot fully. I had experienced the same issue on CM9 that was never resolved. I was hoping a fresh install of CM10 would fix the issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Captivasion:
You're going to have to wait for someone more knowledgeable than I to get back online. In the meantime check the MD5sum of the nightly on your phone versus the same one on http://get.cm/?device=skyrocket and make sure they're the same. But you shouldn't have been getting reboots and boot loops from cm9 either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aycockonxion:
I would agree with Captivasion's assessment. It could just be an unusual device-specific issue, especially since it did the same thing on your device with CM9.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
Perhaps you corrupted your /emmc back on CM9 when that problem was around. Hence, he long boot time ...

I would do a full wipe/flash and let Google restore your apps.

See if you still have problems....

---------- Post added at 02:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

Also, do some logcats/kmesg and send to Top so he can look at them....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cmlohff:
The MD5sum's match. I can't remember after which nightly it began but it hadn't always been the case.

That would be unfortunate...

So far, so good. No disappearing widgets, BW or otherwise. Only done 2 reboots so far though, so we'll see.

I have had one random reboot. It occurred shortly after setup while quickly flicking through home screen pages to see smoothness on trebuchet. Hasn't happened since I switched to Apex.
