[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xasbo:
It can't be a network issue, plain and simple. If it were, flashing to a different ROM would not immediately resolve the problem for me; nor would SIM swapping. If it's a network issue, it will follow across handsets and across software. It doesn't, so it's not an AT&T issue.

I could buy a Samsung issue, and I am curious if anyone is reproing this on an i777 ROM. I've only used SHOstock2 ROMs while getting this issue.

edit: The problem repro'd again today, so I just tried changing my APN as described above, as well as fiddling with the Network Operators menu. No changes, so I'm going to hop back to my second ROM and pull down a load of texts...

edit2: Yep, swap back to second ROM and bada-bing. My new process is:

1) Backup main ROM SMS/MMS to XML via TiBu.

2) Reboot to second ROM.

3) Receive all texts (usually happens by itself, no self-text necessary).

4) Backup secnd ROM SMS/MMS to XL via TiBu.

5) Pull XML files off phone, merge, and copy back to phone.

6) Reboot to main ROM.

7) Import merged XML via TiBu.

I can understand that a Rom is at fault some it seems to be centered around me right now but the fact that it happens to both my phones at exactly the same time every time I'm skeptical. Receiving a text requires no settings from the device manually only sending which needs the smsc number. Either way this is not easy to find and I hope I can find some resolve soon....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xasbo:
I hope I didn't come off as attacking you - not what I was going for. I just don't think it can be an exclusively network-based problem when a software solution consistently fixes it.

The timing is rather interesting. Maybe it's a software problem that is instigated by a certain network event? I wish there were an easy way to "diff" the state of my two ROMs when one is working and the other isn't. There is some evidence that it could be tied to the SIM, but as both you and I know, replacing the SIM completely doesn't fix the issue. :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] moopile:
Nothing about this problem seems "to make sense". So in that line of thought, could it be an app that those of us with the problem have in common that is the cause?

I'm including a list of my apps.

It happened to me again today. I haven't received a single text today. My wife sent me 16 texts. This problem seems to go on for 2 days at a time, then all of a sudden I receive all the missing texts at once. This is past annoying!

I don't understand how this can just be a Samsung problem if this just all of a sudden started? I've had the phone for a year. My wife has the Iphone and she has received all my texts.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] moopile:
Happened to me today too. When I noticed it, swapped SIM and got my texts.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xasbo:
I don't think it's app-related ... but here's mine: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ixb1uh0kvxuv910/apps.txt Not a lot overlap with yours.

So on your phone, the problem resolves itself? I've never waited that long before messing with things. It's could be a Samsung problem because you're running bleeding-edge software. My contacts always receive my outgoing texts, this problem is known to only affect incoming messages.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AcmeWidgets:
About an hour ago, all my texts from the past 2 days just came in at once! (50 texts) Again, outgoing texts are received by whoever I send them to. It seems I have 2 days of receiving texts, then 2 days of not receiving texts.

I'm running DoomZday v1.5.1 SE Android version 2.3.6

Baseband I777UCKH7

Siyah kernel v2.6.9
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xasbo:
Whoever reproduces this issue next, make a nandroid backup with the phone in the bugged state. Once you fix the problem (or it fixes itself), restore the nandroid backup and see if you can immediately repro the problem.
[General Questions and Answers] pds26:
I was trying out different ROMs based on AOKP and CM9 on my device and I have finally chose to use the CM9 one. How can I remove "boot AOKP" from the start up? Does the present of the AOKP ROM take up space in my device? Thanks in advance. :D
[General Questions and Answers] wildstang83:
You'll need to provide more details. What device do you have and what is this start menu? What rom is it?

And it shouldn't be taking up space on your system if you have CM installed. just taking space on your sd or internal flash memory.
[General Questions and Answers] pds26:
I have an HP touchpad and I have installed this rom in both AOKP and CM9 version: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1501637

The CM9 is better so I decided to keep using it. How do I remove unnecessary stuff from previously installed ROM?

The start up menu means the one with black background and blue text for you to choose which OS to boot. Sorry for being a noob :P
[General Questions and Answers] wildstang83:
lol, no problem. Its just commonly a good thing to state your device and what your running if you don't have that info in your signature, and always be as descriptive as possible. We love to help, but it makes it hard if we don't have something to go off of :)

I'm assuming you have some custom recovery installed like CWM recovery. Basically in recovery you would have had to of wiped before you flashed CM or your device wouldn't have booted. If it did, then we have a miracle on our hands :P When you wipe it removes all little bits of your previous rom. I suppose if you are still concerned there is an issue, you could just reboot back to recovery again and wipe everything except your sd and internal (not familiar with the device if it has those), and then just reflash the rom with gapps.

As far as the start menu I have no clue, I don't own that device to know how to remove or modify it. If I had to guess, I'd say it has something to do with the bootloader, and you should look around for a custom one on the forums that is modded for what you want.

Anyways, this is all just basic stuff and may not apply for the touchpad. If anything, just ask in the q&a section for the device that way a dev for that device can help. http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1467

I know you are new here so I'll just let you know real quick before I go, each device on XDA has five subforums.

TouchPad:

General

Q&A

Accessories

Development

Themes and Apps

So in the future if you have questions, the Q&A section for the TouchPad will be the best place to ask. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind helping, i just don't know the device like your actual devs would. Good luck!
[General Questions and Answers] pds26:
Thank you so much! Too bad noobs can't post stuff on specific device's forum :( I guess I have to reply to more general posts to get rid of my noob status first... but thanks anyway!! :D
[General Questions and Answers] wildstang83:
Wait, I knew you couldn't post in the Development section, but now new people can't post in general or q&a?
[General Questions and Answers] Ghostfreak NB:
You can still post in q and a

Or general section till then.... Of your specific device forum
[General Questions and Answers] pds26:
Ooops my bad...I was trying to ask something on the post of the ROM I use but the development section wouldn't let me so I thought I couldn't post in other sections as well...but thanks for letting me know!!
[General Questions and Answers] Ghostfreak NB:
Good that you know it now.... Use it for the betterment of Xda and mistakes are bound to happen when you're new....

Woohoo first true modded stock rom :) that's bad ass thank dwitherell :) sorry for not getting you that Kernel but I hope me or merwin can get u one for tweaked 2.1 :)

If helped don't be afraid to hit the thanks button ;) it doesn't bite lol
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] flyers00:
Congrats on getting this ROM released
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
No worries and no rush - I'm sure it'll be all kinds of awesome when it's done, and then I'll have an excuse to update :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] badboy68:
this rom is smooth like butter, thank u, everything works

good job
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] blazetim:
Love this rom.where is 2.1?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Soon... Its not a huge update by any means, but I'm just hammering out some of the last little details and testing testing testing :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] johnb380:
Is this ROM just that good or is no one running this thing can anyone comment... is everyone on aosp
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
LOL - truth be told I'd be interested in knowing that one myself
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] johnb380:
Jeez us Blaze folk r spoiled. But dwitherell we thank u I do at least u worked real hard on this and did an awesome job...

Come on people show the Dev some love let him know what's up
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] unicorndust98:
I can't wait until this is complete, or atleast close. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Well all that's left are the lockscreens really - and I haven't touched any of that yet. The update that'll be coming soon implements something I never got around to with the gingerbread tweaked... then it'll really just be lockscreens and maybe one or two things left on the long term to-do list.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] badboy68:
Bro been running this since its release. Everything works. But dsp manager. I jus deleted it.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chjema:
I'll start working on getting a Diff. DSP man to work with this ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] blazetim:
Can you add the new updated Google now to your 2.1 update please
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Yessir

EDIT: Now are you referring to making it actually out-of-the-box functional, or updating given the little "there's an update on the play store" blip within Google Now? If the former - see previous response. If the latter - I haven't tried digging around in anything, but methinks updates would be better handled by those responsible for the Google-Now-for-ICS mods folk than I. Sorry if I misinterpreted the original request.

EDIT2: Read through some of the Google-Now-for-ICS thread... things don't look all that great on that front. Apparently those in the know on this whole process lost interest/moved on to jellybean stuffs, so no updates will be coming from them. The reasons behind this decision will likely lead me to not doing anything as well (newer update changes lots of things, big pita, etc.) - apologies for the not-so-great news...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] sonusman:
I have not looked in the app drawer to see.

On stock rom's, these notifications disappear immediately once I open the message/email. But on three phones now, any custom ROM I have installed has had fairly significant lag on them disappearing. It is uncanny. If it was just one phone and/or ROM, I would call it just an anomaly to that phone/rom. But three totally different phones by three totally different manufactures? Countless ROM's? WEIRD!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Lol absolutely agree! Weirder still that it is not a widely noticed (or at least widely reported) issue - gotta be one of the stranger coincidences I've heard in a while. While I'm unsure how many run this, but have folks on this or any other modified stock rom encountered such an issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] 2vivid:
Put my sis sim in the blaze and tested to see if I had it and the only notification that lags is the voicemail. All the rest disappeared right away. But I do remember this happening from time to time when I was using it all the time.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] rbeier1221:
Not something I recall occurring while using this Rom. If it did the delay was too insignificant it to stick in my mind.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
Are we still on v2.2? -

I haven't been here in a while and can't find any update for my rom.. so I guess no update for past 4-6 months?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Yeah I've been slacking, my bad. Wife stopped letting me play with her phone, and then a bunch of life stuff happened leaving time much more limited than it had in the past. The former is doing most of the stalling on this though lol
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chinabear13:
Am more than happy to help out in any way possible, let me know anytime
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Thanks - I may take you up on that at some point! Problem is going "blind" as it would be is even slower than the usual slow I bring - what people tend not so see or hear about are the many many many times I break the phone before I actually post anything lol. It's not so bad when I can chase it down as it happens, but the try-send-test-report-try-again path can be a bit rough on a timetable - but you never know. This is why I am a bit more active on whatever phone I am using at the time - I can do that sort of thing so things move comparatively faster :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
Do I need to do anything special if I am coming from a JB rom? I havent used ICS since last year, but I am really not getting the battery life I had hoped for with any JB roms. Does the most recent version come with the scorched kernel? How is everyone's battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Kanty_K:
my battery life is good with stocked kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
What's the suggested governor and I/O for best battery life with this Rom? Is there a kernel or gapps that needs to be flashed with this? Or does it come with a kernel
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Its a modified stock rom (i.e. touchwiz), so no gapps needed. Also, it comes with a kernel by merwin (scorched), but using the plain old stock kernel is just as valid a plan really.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] putney:
Is this ROM dead?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
I don't know if I would call it dead, as I still keep an eye on the thread and what not. I barely have the time to mess with my current phone let alone others, though I still have all the files/etc on the ole laptop for whenever time makes itself available... :)

So I suppose a better term would be "involuntarily stable"...? Meaning I would be actively tinkering if it weren't for work/life/etc keeping such purposeful activities at bay - at least currently.

That being said - if there are bugs/etc please report them - I can make time for bug fixes :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] putney:
Word, my bad on that "involuntarily stable" it is :angel:

I know how life and time is, if you ever make a 4.1 version of this; you've got a tester.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] theprogram1:
Come on dwitherell lets get a 4.1 version of this. :D I'm about to use this rom right now.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Yeah I'm pretty sure a stock 4.1.x OTA/Kies update would get me tinkering again, as that's a TW os I've become semi-comfortable messing with thanks to the Note2 :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Which unfortunately will never happen as the blaze is EOL and no longer sold online through Tmo nor at any Tmo store, which means we are SOL on anything official with 4.1.x or 4.2, etc.

Unofficially from a guy I know at my Tmo store he told me that the Blaze and Relay were replaced with the new Samsung Galaxy Exhibit - not to be confused with the former Samsung Exhibit 4g or (even worse) the Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G. WTF makes these names anyhow?!?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Well that's no good...

...I'm still behind an ota though so I'll revisit it once time becomes available.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] theprogram1:
The galaxy exhibit seems less powerful than the blaze. :/
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
Hi guys.. does anyone know what's the app I can use to send/receive MMS over wifi?

I had it before, but I can't find it anymore :*(
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
I quoted the post a few pages back that had the link - lemme know if it works for you :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
thank you thank you thank you.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
No prob :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] youwish16:
I have been using this ROM for a few weeks and love it. Runs extremely smooth. Only thing I noticed is the battery life is worse than it was before when I was using the regular ICS. Anyone else notice a change in battery life? I ordered a bigger battery so it's not a problem for me now
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
I have been using this ROM for a while now and I really like it. I started noticing the lock screen is all funky when I wake the phone sometimes. What I mean by funky is the lock is all the way to the right of the screen instead of the center. It straightens out if I reboot the phone. I am using the stock kernel as I notice better battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Interesting - which lockscreen?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
I guess the default one..the one that has a small lock at the bottom.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Ok - so the stock AOSP looking one then, yes? I've seen this issue on other phones... do you have auto-rotation enabled, or do you see a pattern at all involving the odd lockscreen appearance and being in (or recently switching from) landscape orientation?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
Yes the stock one... I do have auto-rotation enabled.. but this only happes when I turn the screen on..but not every time.. it's weird..when it does happen it does not go away unless I reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Yeah that's the behavior I have seen, it just seemed semi-related to what was going on when the screen was off. It's an odd glitch in the aosp lockscreen handling that makes it thing it should be setup in a landscape format even though its oriented as portrait. I don't know if I ever really fixed it, but I'll see if some changes I tried can be applied here as well. I'll try to whip up a test tonight - remind me though as I tend to forget lol. Then I'll shoot you a link and we can see if it helps at all :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
Thank you for your willingness to fix this.. I know this is an old phone already and you really don't have to be doing this as I know you have better things to do, lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
LOL it's not THAT old :) I actually just started tinkering again on the Droid Charge (VZW - a bit older than the Blaze as it's stuck on 2.3.7!) - I'm hoping renewed attention will be heading this way as well once I have that somewhat settled. Plus - as I said even if I'm not actively tinkering I'm all for squashing bugs, so it's really no bother :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
well then, tinker away brother, tinker away lol :good::D
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] creeve4:
USB Debugging is not working. I have tried disabling and re-enabling, disabling then rebooting and re-enabling.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Really? Have you tried other computers, using other cords, etc. etc.? Strange as this is the first report of such an issue, and while the popularity of this has bottomed out considerably there was a time when it was used by a few folks (myself via my wife's phone included) and this is the first I've heard of such things.

So to clarify - when you say not work you mean connecting to a computer and doing adb stuff isn't working, yes? Was there any change to drivers or anything? New computer or changes to it recently? Did this work at one point and now is not, or has it never worked?

Apologies for all the questions :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] creeve4:
It worked with CM10 and CM10.1 installed.

I have tried multiple computers and different cords.

I am able to enable USB debugging in the developer options, but when I connect the phone to my PC via a USB cable, the debugging notification does not show in the status bar and when I run adb no devices are found.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Very odd - what kernel are you using? Have you tried to reinstall drivers? I wish I had encountered an issue like this before to have something with a little more meat to suggest - sorry for the troubles!

On a related note - I had mentioned that I was updating past roms and that this one was in queue behind two others...

The other two are now done... hoping to get started on this one soon :) I realize hardly any will use it, but to be fair the other two I updated were for phones stuck on Gingerbread so I doubt many are using those either lol
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Veliion:
rumble hereddf

What kind of things are going to be updated? Or is asking that against the rules? I'm kind of new to this all.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Well the biggest thing will be using the newest TMobile OTA base. The downside - I will likely be cutting out all the lockscreens save for the standard stock one and (most likely) the aosp stock one. There will be some changes to the tweaktools script as well (nothing huge there, though a number of the options will not likely carry over to the new base), but on the upside there will likely be a hefty amount of general "code cleaning" that comes from reworking things from scratch again - it's been 9 months since the last update, and while my skills fall woefully short against those that have been doing so much great aosp work for the blaze, I've probably picked up a few things since then when confining the comparison to me-now and me-then :)

There are some toggles I will likely mess with in the pulldown, and perhaps a few other things depending on how things look once I start digging into it. Some things I'd like to work in that would be new are things like long-press-to-kill-app things and lockscreen torch, along with a few other little things... really it all depends on how things look once I started poking around.
