Yep. Stock kernel. Test at least can compare ROMS. SL v.1.0 got just over 6300 stock. O/C'd instigator on 1.0 was much slower.

SKYICS was fast, but didn't get over 5800 unless o/C'd.

This beast is f a s t!

If we can fix the flicker and reboots, you've got the hands-down best rom for SR!

k, im going almost 19hrs, medium use, and not one sod, reboot, or fc.coming from full wipe, after an 1hr flashed slgapps and about 6 other apps

i hate white sms, but kept the new sms for testing purposes

my setup:

full wipe

after 1 hr flashed slgapps

system settings/display/brightness/ auto brightness "unchecked"

system settings/display/auto backlight/enabled "checked"

system settings/google/ turned off auto sync

after 19 hrs, results , flicker seems to have totally disapperared, no sod, no reboots, no fc, only issue is volume is low

EDIT: 2 more setting i forgot to mention, dont know if it helps or not.

system settings/ developer options/ set to "off"

system settings/about phone/cyanogen stats/reporting "not enabled"

its a must to wait for phone to settle b4 installing gapps, especially full gapps. which i would normally tell people to wait a day and just stick w/slgapps for awhile

supposedly a cm issue w/swift key, havent seen a fix for it yet in the repo
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LPMatt:
Seems like Vin got it working by waiting. I've been fiddling with display setting and definitely altered the flicker. Now it only seems to flicker when typing in SwiftKey. It used to flicker faster and during screen animations. I'll experiment more and post any settings that seem to help more.

Ok I loaded V3 last night and let it settle over night. Loaded slgapps this morning and all seems fine. Been playing with it a little this morning and havent noticed any flickering...... not one SOD....

set up

wipe three times

flash V3

flash instigator kernal

settle over night

flash slgapps

everything seems to be working great! I will try and DL a couple games and see if there are any problems there.(dont really play many)

EDIT: Only problem I am having is getting VVM to work..... anyone have an idea how to fix? It wont let me set the password.

Just a side note here, hoping to bring some satisfaction to my fellow Skyrocket and Vincom JB homes:

I don't use Swiftkey at all; been a Swype lover for a long time.. It came pre-installed on my old Epic 4G Touch. If you've never tried Swype, it's not available on Play, but they have a beta you can sign up for to try. I've tried them all, and none come close to the word suggestion, swiping and voice to text accuracy (using Google speech engine) or clean interface. It's awesome, runs great, and I will definitely buy it when it's out of beta (can't wait)! Using the beta version right now, and very impressed. No, I am not affiliated with them...

Try Swype beta at beta dot Swype dot com. The touch keyboard on our SRs is so important to using the phone, you won't be disappointed. ;)

FYI battery life:

1 day, 2 hours battery, 6 hours screen on time on a single charge with 19% left. Need to reboot but I'm waiting till the charge is like 5% left first. I upgraded to the Seidio 3800mA extended battery, in case anyone is wondering...

Running v1.02 with full inverted Gapps, InstigatorX kernel set to On Demand, the Screen Filter app, and the Autoruns app to disable all unnecessary after-startup apps. I do have full ROM Toolbox, but I find the Startup tool too much of a pain to use :/

Sent/received about 30 texts, read/sent 50+ emails, played Jewels for an hour, Dead Trigger 10 min., used GPS (fast lock too!) for about 30 min, 10 phone calls, Tapatalk, on here a lot, FriendCaster Pro a lot...

NOT bragging at all here, just trying to offer an overview of how good the battery life has been for me on this ROM: Awesome!

Thanks so much, Vincom!

you can try a no wipe install, the problem is any fixes done by cm might conflict with old setup, or might not, it depends what was changed, and they make alot of changes in a day, some good, some bad. it would be hard to pinpoint any problems.

as for vmm, rogers vvm works out of the box with only slgapps(dont know if its needed for vmm) w/out setting up a password as it was already initially setup when i activated vm by calling into my voicemail, but cannot change the password through vmm app as it times out, but i never tried to change the pw b4 through vmm on stock. i dont know how att's vmm works, but for rogers no pw is required to use vmm as it only can be used on data and not wifi, did att's vmm work on any cm10

Silly question #15682

All the goodness that takes place while we're "waiting for the phone to settle" after a flash...does this happen while the phone is in deep sleep? Or do we need to keep it awake or will the phone do the necessary stuff on it's own?

Currently waiting for flash #4 to "settle" :eek:

Stew
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
just leave phone alone, no touching, let screen goto sleep, letting the screen sleep doesnt mean the phone is in sleep mode, test it w/adb and you would see stuff happening, espicially the gallery app trying to setup the media folders and scanning everything, the more stuff you have on your sdcards the longer it takes to find all the media, and something gets triggered when you initially mount the sdcard to your comp
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ComputerWolf:
gs2usr figured out how to stop the flickering over on the PA thread:

Open build.Prop with any text editor of your choice, find the line that says "debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=3"

And change it to say "debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=2" save it then reboot, this will fix the flickering problem

I did a full wipe, sorry i didnt state that earlier. But i have had almost no flicker and not one SOD.

The only problem I have is getting the VVM to work. Has anyone got it working on V3?

---------- Post added at 01:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 PM ----------

Yes VVM worked on V1.02 of this rom, no big deal. I am going to flash the full inverted gapps and see if that helps. Thats what I was running the last time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
i was getting the flicker pretty badly in the begining, i already changed the auto backlight to enabled, not much of a change, then i changed the setting for the brightness control "auto backlight" to not enabled, that seemed to solve the flicker issue, idk, but it never flicked again

thats two diff settings, one is "system settings/display/brightness/ auto backlight to off"

2nd "system settings/display/autobacklight/set to enabled"

att's vmm: as for v1.02 and v3.0 the only change was some hidden wallpapers and some tts files for britain, dont see that borking att's vvm between 1.02 and 3.0 unless cm did something to the firmware, but rogers vvm works(direct from playstore) w/only slgapps but never tried it w/out slgapps so i dont know if its dependant on something else

Your battery looks a lot like mine. See where the battery voltage actually drops to zero at times. It's like a short inside the phone. I've gone back to Seans ICS rom till I am sure my phone isn't phucked up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
When you see that its not a short or anything, the gap its time that the phone wasn't on recording the battery, meaning during that time you were flashing or rebooting, so when phone turns on and starts recording battery stats again, it will show that gap, and lower battery since you wasted charge while flashing,
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kchen96:
If you see my battery pic above, I did no flashing during those gaps. My phone would freeze and black screen, I would hold power down for 10 secs or remove battery and restart. Phone up and running withing a minute
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
Yeah, like I said the phone records battery only while is on, so while rebooting or removing the battery its not recording so you will see that gap. Just saying man. I was just sharing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LPMatt:
Still getting some random freezes, black screen, shutdowns. Mostly while typing in sms or browser. Still, they seem to be getting better.

I contacted SwiftKey dev before the build prop fix was posted, just letting them know about issues with cm10 and SK. No reply, but a new update just came out.

Other than the occasional s/d, this ROM rocks! Thanks again Vin!

testing revealed that if you perform a factory reset w/out doing system wipe/format on superlite with any gapps installed the phone gets borked, eg. home button not functional, a full wipe(caches, reset and system format/wipe) must be performed and base reinstalled or restored from backup
