It could well be a hardware issue. Something that you may want to look at, instead of always using the power button, is an app called Screen Off & Lock. I have it on my home screen & the only time that I use the power button is to turn the phone on.

There's another app called Quick Boot, which allows you to reboot the phone, reboot into recovery etc - both are free & on the store.

mr roboto?

I have an S2 skyrocket running cm10 nightly. I still haven't upgraded to sk8's new version of cwm. I recently flashed back to the stock rom because everyone said I sounded robotic on CM 10. I tried 3 or 4 of the jelly bean ROM's on here and they all sound the same. I'm assuming this is something to do either with my device or with 4.1 .2. So my question is do you think the 4.2 update will help me or not. and also does anyone else have this issue with the robotic voice sound. Thank you in advance for your help. I have been running CyanogenMod on various devices 4 years I've been very happy
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ganja_guru:
It's been discussed pretty often on these forums you need to be on a touch based recovery, either twrp or sk8. Do a clean install with one of the latest recoveries and see if it helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] RaptorOne3:
I would try a factory reset/full wipe and a fresh install of CM10 per the instructions here - http://www.teamchopsticks.org/p/cm10-install-guide.html

Make sure you have the most current radio, UCLI3, on your device and ready to flash first...

This is most certainly a radio conflict... It could be hardware related but try this first.

You do not have to be using a touch recovery. TeamChopSticks have simply stated that they only provide support for CWM recovery. Never have they stated that only touch recoveries should be used. Both touch and non-touch CWM work just fine. But I would definitely stick with CWM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rickjamezb:
Thanks for the reply. Big thanks to all the hard work from the devs .....I wipe all the goodies several times... and follow instructions. I'm going to chalk it up to buying a phone off cl. I'm posting this from cm10. The voice quality is "different" than stock ROM. I can live with it.

I love the customization... bloat free. :) my only question is this...I am used to using powertools by painless death. Its a widget/app to manage power,connections,torch,ect. It offers lots of customization. The default setup for cm10 has a pull down at top with some power options and connections....

how can I either add more items to it or get rid off it all together?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ryancnap:
Settings > system > notification drawer. You can enable/disable the power widget and select widget buttons to add/remove them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ganja_guru:


Thanks for the heads up. You're right, team chopsticks never mentioned a need for a touch based recovery but a lot of the other devs do, which is why I assume that to be true for all recent jellybean roms. I also did not realize that the non touch cwm was still actively being developed. Seeing this, a non touch cwm would probably work too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
You really should give TWRP a try, if you haven't already done so. It's lighting and fast and works like a dream!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ganja_guru:
Yeah I've been using twrp for a while now, it's awesome. Can't ever go back to cwm at this point.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rickjamezb:
thanks for the help finding it of course right after I posted it I found it lol.

Just for the record: I'm using CWM 5.X is a touch version just not the newest 1..I haven't used adB, so I haven't updated to v6.XX....

clockwork works so well I don't really see the need to try TWRP.

I noticed keis software no longer wants to upgrade my firmware on the stock ROM since I installed custom recovery... but who cares? I have this!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
TWRP takes about 140 seconds to backup my system! I'm not sure how long it's taking cwm to do backups now, but the last time I used it, I waited about 15-20 minutes!!

TWRP is really simple to use & install - just download goo manager from the store, press the menu button & install the Open Recovery Script, you'll be happy that you did! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
Sk8rs' CWMR is just as fast and reliable as TWRP. Either are good. Matter of taste and comfortability.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Yeah, but once you try twrp, you won't use cwm again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Steviemac12:
Hey xcrazydx,

What's the learning curve like, coming from cwm to twrp?

Do you find it is more simple or superior in any way?

Thanks

Steve
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chinthekng:
TWRP is about as simple as it gets with tabs for operations and swipe to start the operation it's pretty hard to mess up. Plus you have the ability to select multiple zips and flash them all at once and with a built in file manager and theme support what more could you want or need :laugh:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Steviemac12:
Thanks for the quick reply Chinthekng. Your feedback is most appreciated...

Took the leap, looks very cool.

Steve

EDIT: do you recommend backing up "recovery.img", "cache", or ".android.secure" - or are these just exreaneous things?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chinthekng:
i wouldn't recommend it, you don't really need them and they just take up space and time
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] beall49:
TWRPs UI is so much better (IMO) and intuitive.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] haloeight:
Thanks. Was reading another thread where a stuck power button was the cause. Hasn't been rebooting lately so I wonder if that was it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] foreverzero89:
how is the latest nightly compared to the stable relese of 10.0.0?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pak-stars:
im using 12-06 and its alot more stable than 10.0
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] foreverzero89:
cool thanks. what about todays? anyone know about that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pak-stars:
try it out so i can dirty flash lol..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
The changes in the last few days, have been minimal - that said, 12/07 is darn near perfect - haven't had a single issue with anything that I use :)

Props to Top & Team Chopsticks!

I know that they're busy with 4.2 :thumbup:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jpierce1987:
Baseband issue??

I'm running the nightly from Dec 1st with the UCLI3 Baseband (as recommended on the install guide with dl links) Every now and again when it boots up there will be NO signal... no matter how long i wait, nothing.. If i go to Settings/About Phone it says Baseband Version : Unknown. Only fix is a reboot.. sometimes i have to reboot twice. Than it will boot up as normal, and say Baseband Version : I727UCLI3...

Not sure if this is a known issue, or if it's been fixed yet. Does anyone else have this problem? And I'd love to help by sending any info you need about this issue, if someone would walk me through what you need, I'd be glad to help.

As I said earlier, I'm running the nightly from Dec 1st with the normal cyanogenmod kernel and the radio they recommended... nothing fancy, just followed the install guide... Everything else works AMAZING! This is a great, VERY stable rom! Haven't had any issues, other than this! Battery life is AMAZING! Good rom guys, keep it up! :) Hopefully one day we will get to see a shiny picture of our phone on the devices page of cyanogenmod.com LOL :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hellfreezover:
Hi all,

I'm running the Dec 7th nightly, found 2 issues...

1. Phone got stuck after several screen lock/unlock screen was blank, had to reboot.

2. The weather on lock screen Stokes showing the exact location like in previous nightly? !?!

Other than that it is smooth and good, still don't know about battery life :)

One other thing which us not critical... the option of sending a contact detail through sms is not available ;)

Thanks for great progress:)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Just a suggestion for people that are having issues with random reboots, loss of signal etc - try doing a totally clean flash - factory reset, wipe system, cache & dalvik 3x flash rom, gapps etc. I can only speak for myself, but if I've ever had any issues, they've been extremely rare & very far between :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] epapsiou:
Did that. In fact went the Odin route. I see random loss of signal every couple of days. Very frustrating. So went back to cm9 and no issue. Had the issue with slim rom too.

Otherwise the rom is fine. Just losing signal and then baseband says unknown.

Way to fix is reboot or switching apn back and forth
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Well in that case, I'd suggest that you try a different radio & see if that resolves the problem :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ryancnap:
Glad you mentioned this cause I had a question; I also have random loss of signal but only for a couple mins, mainly I have HSPA+ icon and 3G icon switching back and forth constantly. My setups completely standard with UCLI3 radio, and I ALWAYS do a full wipe and completely clean install. Now when I first came to these forums I was pretty confused concerning radios and kernels..but I found out from other users etc. that you just have to try which works best for you. So I was really confused about how cm recommended the ucli3 radio. Wouldn't it work great for some and horrible for others? Is there a specific reason we should only be using ucli3?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
CM probably recommends UCLI3 because the corresponding RIL files are used in the Skyrocket build.

Personally, I've found UCLI3 to be a poor performer and have been running UGLH2 from the Bell I757m for the past month and a half, very pleased with it and no signal issues at all.

Bell 757m modems work on skyrocket
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Thanks Colonel! A very useful bit of information!! :beer:

---------- Post added at 03:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:43 PM ----------

I know that there's a cm nightly update that was created for the 8th, and it only has one change - merge "smooth spinners" android_framework_base, but it's not showing up (yet) as a download? I think almost all of the other Samsung devices are showing up as a 12/08 build.... And I'm bored - lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
+1 -- What to do??? I haven't flashed anything since the 10.0 stable, just waiting patiently for the 10.1 nightlies to begin.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
You have steely resolve! I can't help but flash - even when I know that there's no changes - I've flashed and I can't get up :p

Edit; I guess it's karma - I took a shot at Quincy getting it's updates before the Skyrocket & guess what - Quincy got the 12/8 update... :'(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tanton50:
what carrier are you on? I have poor calls on UCLI3 and UCLF6 on at&t. Can I flash Bell's modem and get it to work on at&t?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
It won't hurt to try - if it doesn't work try flashing UCLF5 - it's an at&t radio :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] teeg07:
Yes you can! I have at&t and have been running that modem for quite some time. Flash, and go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tiuk:
Do you or anyone else have experience using this modem on Rogers? I flashed UCLI3 today and it's been pretty terrible. Before that I was on the previously recommended modem, forget the letters but it ended with a 6.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Steviemac12:
I'm on Rogers and am running the Bell modem. No problems so far, and signal has been very good.

Flash and give it a try.

Steve
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
I've been using UCLI3 for about a month, and it's been working well for me. But it's been said many times before - There's no "best" radio, rom or kernel - it's what works for you :)

The radio that you were thinking of is, UCLF6.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] scootertrashtx:
Are you using the stock kernel? I had the same problem with one of the 'other' kernels... I think I also had the 4.1.2 gapps... Cleaned, cleared, reinstalled with included kernel, UCLI3, & the 20121011 gapps. All good now. Haven't had the problem since. The radios work differently depending on where you are... Might try flashing another...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
Running Bell radio for last 2 days with no issues. No real difference for my situation than with UCLI3 radio.

Dallas has awesome LTE so I don't see a difference yet. Headed to Little Rock today.... should know more.

Awaiting the 10.1 nighty builds to start as well. Flashed a couple of post 10.0 stable nightly builds but feel 10.0 is best for me until true nightly 4.2 framework builds start up...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Listen to scooter! Different kernels WILL affect your connectivity!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
On Rogers as well and the connectivity/battery is very good, with decent data speeds. The voice/call quality is somewhat to be desired though

Formatting Issue?

Just got a 64GB Class 10 Sandisk Card!... put it in the skyrocket loaded with the newest nightlies! & noticed it came up damaged or corrupt.. reformat! ... so i reformatted & here it didn't reformat the 64GB Card!... it reformatted the USB Storage Loosing Everything!!! :(

Oh well i backed everything up about a day ago so im not stressing it... but it could of sucked bad if i had stuff i wouldn't of been able to get back on the USB Storage!

So i put the 64GB Card in my 2ND Skyrocket... Reformatted there & It Worked!

took it right out of the second skyrocket & back into skyrocket #1 with nightlies & it showed up 59.46GB!

So i think there maybe an issue with SD Card Formatting! :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Generally speaking, it's recommended to format the sd card in your pc using fat32 - always works for me :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] RK:
Yes this is a known issue. Although I am not sure if it's reported. Report it in the cm issue tracker.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ozziedog:
Haven't used the 64GB but I'm using a 32GB Kingston Class 10 and when formatted with PC FAT32 mine will show 29.96GB that maybe normal. I don't think you ever have use of the complete capacity of the SD Card.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] RK:
I meant the formatting internal instead of external is a known issue. it has been there since cm9.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] joeclark:
Just curious, has anyone figured out how to get the audio to go through the dock yet?

it is just starting to get a little annoying having to turn my Bluetooth on every time i get in the truck.. i really like just plugging my phone into my old Infuse car dock and having audio and everything go through the radio like i used to do. the audio quality through my Bluetooth FM transmitter really isn't that great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
Order an NFC tag and program it to turn on Bluetooth... :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] joeclark:
yeah i will probably end up doing just that, but i really don't like the sound quality of my Bluetooth transmitter.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] GiZZiE42o:
Yeah it was weird!

But should be good for help the bug fixes!.. cause there's definitely bug's with SD Card formatting!

Very weird how my 1st skyrocket with CM10 would read the card! but said it was damaged or corrupted!

so i was reading around & seen someone do it on a stock phone & it worked!

so i threw it in the 2nd "Stock" Skyrocket & Said the same exact thing! except... this time it reformatted the card! & worked!

took it out & put it in the CM10 Skyrocket Phone & Bam it worked & loaded right up!... But lost all My USB Storage cause that reformatted! which sucked!!!

What's weird is on my laptop it only gives me a Format to Exfat?

i didn't see FAT32...

but i already knew about the make sure it's FAT32 thing!

i just thought it would automatically do it on the phone! & can probably do it in Command prompt manually!

Also some glitches i found....

Dead Trigger Flicker's In Menu!

Max Payne Has No Onscreen Control's! & no menu! you have to force close! Hasn't worked Sense my phone was 3.2.6! right as i updated to 4.0.4 Max Payne stopped working! :(

Couple other game's as i test them im making a list of Official Working & Not Working Game's & App's!

Kinda wish there was a way to clear the RAM like in the Stock ROM's When you hold down the home key it would say task manager under it!

Also the original stock way of taking a screenshot! Hold down power & home button! but now its hold the power & select screenshot & it snaps in about 2 seconds!

is there anyway to add this feature? or modify it to do that?

Battery life seem's to be weird for me... Good time's Bad Time's!!!... LoL!

i have over 13 battery's for this phone! & some battery's die quick... some die slow!

the battery i have in there now is the best so far for a stock 1850mAh! I have a 2150mAh Extended & A 3,800mAh Battery! With no NFC But they work well too!

Also Some Option's from the Galaxy S3 & Note 2!!!

Mainly Multiscreen Pen Support! ... & The Option to make your own Vibration Ring Tone in the setting's menu On The S3!

first 2 thing's that come to mind! & im pretty much 95% sure it's possible!

_----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------_

Anyone point me in the direction of Making my own Rom? & learning the code? so maybe i can help out? i got time! & lot's of it! all winter actually cause of a pinched spinal cord & pinched nerve in my left arm cause of a 4 Wheeler crash!

& i was in a house fire back in 2011 & lost everythign! .... so im down for awhile! But i can still do alot of computer stuff! :)

What About Downloading the stock Galaxy S3 & Note 2 ROM's & Stripping them for the code for the extra option's in the menu's!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
You can do a screenshot by holding volume down and power button for 2 secs.

Anyone got tethering with Rogers working?

Skyrocket using CM10 10.0.0-skyrocket.

Bluetooth and wifi tethering do not seem to work. I tried the different APNs that are on the phone:

Rogers (rogers-core-appl1,apn)

Rogers LTE (ltemobile.apn)

Rogers Tethering (isp.apn)

None seem to work. I do not have an LTE plan.

Is there a fix for this?

thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
Known issue. Search forums. Its there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] veames:
thanks, I have done some searching but have not found a solution. Have tried a variety of APNs, have tried different network settings LTE/WCDMA etc, and tried one suggestion to add some ip tables forwards. no-go. Can you provide a link?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rpr69:
I haven't tried it lately, but I know it worked for me not all that long ago.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
4.1.2 respects the operators tethering policy, therefore if you do not have a tethering plan it won't pass data onto other devices.

I do recall some people making firewall rules changes in terminal or adb and bypassing this somehow.

You will just have to search it out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] plwalsh88:
Wait what? I don't have a plan and I can still tether. What do you mean 4.1.2 won't pass data onto other devices?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
If you search it out, Rogers has a tether policy in their APN setup from what I can tell. If the APN denies tethering, 4.1.2 will respect the operators tether policy.

I don't believe AT&T has that same policy in place in the firewall rules. That is my understanding but I may be wrong and hope someone that has more knowledge than I can correct me if I am....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
I'm with Rogers, and there's never been a problem with tethering with gb or ICS, although I haven't bothered to try it with cm10, or aokp :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] plwalsh88:
Yea I thought Rogers allowed their customers to tether for free, no plan required? I proly even heard it from you shaggy somewhere along the way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
I defer to Shaggy....just what I have read via Google code page before...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] TheDiddler:
I've tethered on CM9 and I'm with Rogers. Rogers has no specific policy on tethering like in the states. Basically if you have a data plan, do what you want with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Danmanlott:
Liking the ROM. I came back after a few weeks feeling out the other roms. It is much more stable now than I remember it being. Although not as prevalent as it used to be, when hitting the home button and returning to the home screen I will get a occasional message that "system UI" has stopped working. The status bar disappears for a few seconds then it restarts. I am using Nova launcher if that matters. Does anyone else have this problem? That's really the only thing that sticks out about this rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Firedcylinder:
I would suggest removing nova launcher and see if it still happens. I only ever see this error when changing themes.
