[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dev997:
If I remember correctly , I had to flash a GB rom before flashing this as I was getting status 7 error when trying to flash it over i9100 hailraised ICS that I was using and it was something mentioned as a workaround somewhere.

Since then I'm just trying and flashing one cm10/aokp rom over other and facing the issue on all. Is that can be an issue ?

I have zero idea about bootloaders and flash counter, but it can help, I'm willing to try. All these roms are running super smooth for me, better than ICS, but I cannot use it as it doesn't read any music files.

ALSO, I'm pretty sure media scanner is broken for me. Even if I try to add new media files using the rom, they are not shown. Quickpic is working beautifully as workaround. But the bigger issue is music. none of the music players detecting any music.

crying for help :crying:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] NoobieExtraordinare:
Any idea?

If anyone know where I can find a PA nightly (from CM10 4.1.2 nightly); PA2.18?ported to i777 please let me know. I can't seem to find it anywhere.

2.20

Hi guys,

The 2.20 is out ... I can't wait for port... Maybe I should learn how to port :good::D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] NoobieExtraordinare:
Yes I know, updated my nexus 7 yesterday. 4.1.2 goodness! :)

For some reason when I use the front facing camera, gallery force closes and the picture I take is just blank.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
Seems to be an intermittent problem on some ROMs, this one included. I've seen it happen on older versions of this one, and run into it on AOKP as well. Usually just exiting and trying again a couple times makes it work for me. If not, try clearing gallery data. Took 2 re tries on AOKP for me a couple days ago, been fine since.

Question

Perhaps someone can explain why my phone will only ring once? I have a mp3 set as my ring tone.. And on other ROMs ICS and so on will play it over and over again.. It is a 2 second sound.. Where under this ROM it will play it once then just vibrate?

Question is.. Is it just a setting I am missing or am I just retarded?

Any help would be great.. Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
Gotta tweak the metadata in the sound file I think. I vaguely remember seeing a solution posted somewhere on xda...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Fluffster:
Awesome.. Thanks for that piece of information.. That is what I needed to find the fix..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1446787

That is the link.. You basically need to use Metadata now.. Set ANDROID_LOOP to TRUE then save as an ogg file.. And that did the trick..

Thanks again.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IconRunner:
I've got a 2.22 port if anyone else needs their flash fix for the day. My first port but it's working 100% here.

(Not to undermine the pro's here, just wanted to see what it was like.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Califoryan:
I'd like that port, pretty please. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ratzu:
I'd love to have that port, are bluetooth and wifi working? Also, does the ring work properly?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IconRunner:
Currently having problems with the XDA file uploader. Keeps crashing before uploads.

(In Interim, using Google Drive.)

pa_i777-2.22 IconRunners BETA Port 2.zip

(This rom uses Siyah-v4.3.2-MALI-JB-mswap. Latest as of 10/18.)

Disclaimer: This is my first port, it is provided AS-IS. It hasn't bricked my phone and I have no reason to believe it will brick anyone else's.

The good news! Works great on my phone! Wifi, file transfer, mic, data, touchkeys, the whole 9 yards. Battery life is great, no downsides I can see.

If you end up having the "lockscreen flash" bug, try reflashing or using an alternative lockscreen app. This bug has been present in the last few versions, I have no idea how to fix it.

Flash away comrades!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Califoryan:
I guess I'll be the guinea pig for the first method. I'm about to flash it. I'll let you know shortly.

---------- Post added at 01:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 AM ----------

Stupid question.... Are the gApps included in the zip? Blonde moment.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IconRunner:
Awesome! Wanted to test it before uploading but figured I'd put it out there anyway instead of waiting a few more days.

No, gapps are not included in the zip. If anyone knows how to insert them, let me know and I'll get it done.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Califoryan:
So good so far. It booted, and im putting my info in her now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ArtificialMusik:
I believe you can't and shouldn't put the Gapps in the rom. Reason being is because CM team used to do it with their roms and received a DMCA Takedown notice. No idea why really, just not how we do things anymore. Let's keep it that way so no one gets in trouble.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IconRunner:
Alright, I won't play with it. I guess it makes sense, Google doesn't want us breaking their stuff.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ratzu:
Works great, did method 1.

However, there are some (small) issues, occasionally, WiFi bugs out and it claims there are no networks in range, also, when you lock the phone it does the TV type thing (where the image on the screen gets sucked into the center) and then the lockscreen flashes and the screen locks after that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IconRunner:
I'm afraid I don't have the wifi issue. It doesn't sound like an issue with the port though, nothing related to wifi and/or bluetooth changed.

Regarding the lockscreen flash, yea I had that on the last few versions as well. Not sure what's up with it, reflashing my phone seemed to fix it temporarily for me (hasn't happened for the past 4 days). That sounds like an issue for devs or someone who knows kernel stuff. (I haven't had a problem with it while I was using WidgetLocker.)

Other than that, glad the first method is working for you. I'll pull the other zips to clean things up a bit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Aeltar:
Have you tried running the kernel cleaning script?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ratzu:
I'm new to this whole rooting/flashing thing, I found the cleaning script, but I have no clue what it means to flash a new kernel or more importantly, what kernel I should flash, and yes, I've tried searching.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Aeltar:
The latest one (the one you originally quoted) includes Siyah kernel. Try running the kernel cleaning script in ClockworkMod (the recovery, not the app) and then reflashing the ROM. That may or may not fix your wifi issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ratzu:
Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
U need to read everything u can before even thinking of flashing anything else. It's ok to want to have something cool on your phone, but if you aren't familiar with all this stuff and something happens you'll be one of those guys posting a thread about something u did and now yer phone is bricked and u need help. And we don't want that. Trust me reading and learning will help u out A LOT here. There are tons of threads and stickies to guide u. Good luck.

I just wanted to point out that this is more then a port.. An additional host file has also been added to this..

I am quiet sure it was just overlooked and please don't get me wrong in mentioning it.. As people will love you for porting this.. But if when you do port it you mention anything "extra" you do to it..

I only notice this because I have an deep mistrust for people.. But in this case it is unfounded.. Thanks for porting it.. And keep up the good work bro..

You are correct, the hosts file has been changed. I didn't think it was that big of an issue, but I'll leave the stock one alone in the future.

That is the only "extra" thing I did to this rom, everything else is either kernel fixes or standard porting stuffs.

My phone freezes on boot up every time. I've tried wiping dalvik cache and cache partition. I made a nandroid backup and wiped data/factory reset and then it works but there is some information I need, so is there any way to get it not to freeze when I restore my nandroid backup? I did an advanced restore and I can restore everything except for data and it works fine but after I restore the data it freezes on boot up. Any ideas on how to fix this? I am running v2.21 siyah 4.3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IconRunner:
Boot your phone up, connect to PC and go to /clockworkmod/backup. The .tar files can be extracted and you can replace the data manually.

Status 7 error issues

Much Appreciated, but I'm experiencing a "Status 7 error" when trying to upgrade from 2.21(Which is Phenomenal, btw) to 2.50

It is symlink related

The real issue, however, is that once the installation is aborted, my phone won't load past the Samsung boot screen unless I restore from a backup

I have tried all the fixes I read about(build prop.,wiping, downgrading, other JB Roms...) & I still get the Status 7 error

Any Ideas?

Thanx In Advance
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
Maybe try flashing a siyah kernel that is compatible with your 2.21 build (not sure which that would be offhand) to get a recovery that matches the one in the new version (with siyah 4.3.3). You already tried the initial stuff I'd suggest - but I sort of remember reading something about incompatible recoveries triggering this. Didn't really pay much attention to it at the time, as the only time I ever hit this issue, the build prop was the cause. Probably would want to flash the siyah kernel, then reboot recovery (from within cwm) then try flashing the new version...

Good luck...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SumDum YunGuy:
Status 7 error "Solved"

Thanx for the suggestion. After running through all the steps(AGAIN!!!) to no avail, I downloaded PA again, but I let my phone rename it & the next time I tried to upgrade...Viola!!!

Not entirely sure if that last step was the fix for said issue, but it works now, so no complaints here

XDA is the S#!t & all contributors are awesome. Pat yourselves on the back. Aaaaaooooowwwww!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
was that the first time you re-downloaded it (i.e. the second download worked)? If so, you probably just had a corrupt download the first time. It happens occasionally. The file name should not matter at all, as far as I'm aware... Glad you got it going though!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SumDum YunGuy:
I would get the error wit every download, I deleted and dl'ed 3 times, the final time I just dl'ed it without deleting the previous copy & my phone renamed it(of course). Viola... PA 2.50

It probably was what you say about the corrupt download, but the renamed copy is the one that finally worked

Thanx again

So, just out of curiosity, I flashed the 2.52iconrunner build, and I was wondering is anyone else having extremely slow data speeds?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IconRunner:
Wasn't sure if it was typical or not. Data seemed slow on my phone as well. Just flashed the UCKH7 modem and speeds seem to have improved a bit. Could just be placebo though...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Fluffster:
I didn't check myself, but did you include another modem in your release.. That could cause it..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
No modem in iconrunner release, unless he included LC2, which I don't think anyone but me uses :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Archaenon:
I flashed UCLE5 and UCKH7, both about the same, and it improved a little bit, but it's not nearly as fast as it was on 2.21.

It takes about 5 mins to download anything 7mb and above.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ArtificialMusik:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] projekt1:
Been running PA v2.5.2 for acouple days no problem until a few hours ago. All was good until I got "unfortunately messaging has stopped working" when replying to a text. I have been texting no problem and was just before I got that message as well. I wasnt doing anything with the phone (no downloading etc.) then all of a sudden the message pops up.

I reset the phone twice, reset the APN setting to default (although I had no messed with them) and I used Jivy's kernel cleaning script (since it clears cache and dalvik for me) but the message comes back up as soon as I slide-to-open the screen after a fresh boot.

I do not want to wipe because Im already over 3gb and dont want to get throttled again (no Wifi access).

Do I have any other options?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gorgy76:
clear messaging app cache in settings and check the app dpi and layout in pa preferences. some app doesn't behave properly with dpi changes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] projekt1:
Oh yea, cleared cache in messaging settings but no luck. I dont think the dpi will fix it because I have been using the same dpi without any problems till today.

Could I have a virus or something? What would cause that too happen? Again, I wasnt even messing with any settings or even browing the web. I was texting back n forth then all of a sudden the message poped up :eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Fluffster:
I would try re-flashing your modem on it.. See if that works.. If not double check if everything else works.. If it does like phone and such and just not messaging you can do a full backup of your phone then blow it out and do a fresh install and see if that fixes it..

If it does then you know it is something corrupted in your configurations..

If not.. Then it may be an issue with your hardware or carrier..
