[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
Even over all of the doomsday talk I have given the device and OS, I think Blackberry may be the one to watch this year. If half of what they are claiming is true, they might make the comeback of a decade. Haven't read much on Tizen, and that alone makes me agree with your stance on it. I keep up with most of the emerging tech and like you say, support means everything these days. Losing it and getting it back is hard enough(ask Blackberry), but never having it is going to be that much more difficult. The wife uses an iPhone? SAY IT AINT SO....my lady has a skyrocket too, so when I release a new build, I put it on hers directly after mine. THAT"S HOW EVERYONE CAN BE SURE MY ROMS ARE ON THE UP AND UP. If I jacked up my wife's phone, I'd NEVER hear the end of it! :eek:

As for Samsung, they have really made some FINE devices in recent years; my last flat panel was a Sony Bravia, but my next is a Samsung. They are the new milleniums Sony as far as I'm concerned. But, it wasn't always that way. Had a Solstice before my iphone, which was before my HD2. Jeez, was THAT phone a piece of crap. Ugh

Samung Solstice > iPhone 3G > HTC HD2 > LG G2X > HTC Sensation 4G > HTC Rezound > Samsung SGH-I727
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mtdew:
Tizen is a more complete open source os it is a Linux base but unlike android where OEMS are not allowed to modify the core of the os tizen is fully open to modification. Basically OEMS will like it because they don't rely on Google to say its ok. As for support the verdict is up in the air my guess is a lot of hardcore Linux guys will support it but I don't see it overthrowing android anytime soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] car vs driver:
She sure does, in fact I was a iPhone user since day one until I picked up the SR this past July. Never had any desire to switch to or use Android until just 5 months ago. But, the phone works flawlessly for her, so I may not even swap it out for an android device. She is far from a power user and fits the profile perfectly to use an iOS device.

Blackberry is dead in the consumer market. Their only chance is to hold onto the enterprise / corporate area which I don't think they'll do. They are a company on very, very unstable ground and I don't think anyone who's intelligent will invest money into them at this point.

I think it's really just iOS and Android at this point. Microsoft is still a player with Windows 8 too, but they have a LOT of ground to make up. My prediction is that Apple will start losing market share to Android in a big way over the next year or two - they have not really innovated since the original iPad launched. Everything since then has been incremental updates to hardware and functionality.

Microsoft has clearly innovated this year with their new OS, but I'm not really sure how functional it is at the end of the day. IMHO, it fights against you the whole time you are using it, but at least it looks neat on TV. :cyclops:

Android ... well, I think it's the open nature of the platform and the developers that make this work the best. But for the average consumer, there isn't a ton of innovation happening here. The whole "two apps at a time" concept isn't new to software, it's new to portable devices, sure - but overall it's a niche feature that I don't think the broader market will use too much. Android needs to to better to get the afforementioned marketshare from Apple.

But, I really don't know crap at the end of the day ... just my $.02
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
I hear what you're saying. In my opinion, anyone having the ability to modify the core of the OS could be a blessing and a curse at the same time. Then again, maybe I have my head in the clouds. Or somewhere else;) Anything new is apt to be very interesting, either way.

I agree, Blackberry is a longshot. But, at the end of the day, they have a large number of loyalists that would make a comeback at least a off-chance. My wife misses the qwerty, and many people feel the same. If the new OS is as cutting edge as they claim, they may have a shot. That's all I'm saying. Personally, I think they suck. Apple, hmph.....those guys are already planning for obselescence. Lightning connector? Gimmie a break. If they had any brians at this point, they would be making they're products MORE compatible, not less. Who the hell makes their own devices LESS compatible with their other devices? And all of the after market products, like docks, that are now pretty much useless. What a joke. Steve Jobs was a visionary, and I will miss him greatly. The company went in the ****ter the last time he wasn't there to prop it up, this will be no different. It'll probably take a lot longer for them to tank though. Let's meet up in ten years and joke about how they are this decade's Blackberry or Nokia. HA!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mtdew:
The big thing to remember is that Google has for all intents and purposes exactly what they wanted. They control 70% of the global smartphone market. Its estimated at roughly 1 billion active smart phones worldwide. Googles issue at this point is how to monetize the os itself. It certainly has bolstered its search and I'm sure in some cases ad revenue.

Thanks for this ROM BMP7777 !

Just when I was starting to ignore my rocket!! :beer::thumbup:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lazer77:
I feel like im starting to ignore mine too. (Just getting bored of it) More so now that ive got my n7. Like car said, im leaning towards the s3 or note 2.. but ive heard the s4 is coming out around february or so too. Decisions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
I forgot this was the blinky rom thread. I've been reading about OS, Apple and crackberry for the last 15 minutes.

Hmmm. Anyway, great rom dude! And thanks for the kernel cvd!

Perfect timing, I think we were going to switch to discussing trolls. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
Trolls, ......don't they guard bridges or something? If we all have so much time to talk about crap, then it must mean my latest offering is running like a top. fine with me.....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Haha, yes I live under a bridge. And I really want to come out and smash noobs in the emryo 6.0 thread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chinthekng:
I never got around to it but im finally about to try this rom. Looks really good and it's come a long way so i can't wait to be amazed :laugh: . Only thing stopping me is dev host and it crappy download speeds and errors :silly:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
I didn't mean you specifically ;) Took a look at mohans thread and damn, you aren't kidding. I figured the high-brow ROMs would have more intelligent banter.....

Can't speak for the speed of Dev host, but with the latest release, you shouldn't have to worry about download issues anymore. It works without hassle. Happy Flashing!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chinthekng:
i

It's not really download speed problems, more like dev host's server crapped out and they're doing maintenance on it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] car vs driver:
BMP ... go apply for a goo.im account, you're more than qualified to get one. Then you can use the goo.im app and push updates to your existing users with that. No to mention, they are super reliable and provide one heck of a great service to devs.

Working hard dude, good job. Gonna take this for a spin this week. Might hit you up on the King Beats mod after I check it out.

Cheers mate!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ConfusingCurve:
I was reading through some of the post, but can some one please sum up to me some of the bugs in this ROM, if any? I really like it, and it seems pretty legit. I just wanna make sure, because I love my ROM right now. But, as everyone does, I love to flash :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jookdakang23:
quick question do you think this one will be update more than g2usr's? i love frequent updates and the only thing that would stop me from flashing this one is the lack of updates
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
No real bugs to speak of, other than some people having issues with their camera. So far, i have had no issues at all. But if you've been around the skyrocket threads

awhile, you know these things are finicky.

I am working on new additions and an aroma installer. But I also am currently working 12 hour days and seven days a week, so if you need daily updates, this thread won't be for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ATRIXXIRTA:
By the looks of those pics it looks like you work at a call, you poor, poor son of a bizz. Been there done that, still have nightmares, haha.

No, I'd rather stay here, use your work, and ***** about it. WAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!

LOL. Kidding! Working great so far. Something's eating my battery a little quick, but it could be s number of things i have to look into. Awesome ROM though! From rookie to pro in no time at all!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ConfusingCurve:
I am really considering this ROM. I like the fact that there are few bug, AND it was done by rookies. I love to see rookies making some good stuff and trying out there! I will def. at least test this and give my two cents. Thanks again man!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] raynan:
Nice work, man. But I would love to see PA settings in there too ;) also, changing the DPI through romtoolbox pro doesn't do anything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
I posted a link to PA prefs in the OP this afternoon. I'll look into the DPI settings as well
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jhong209:
You try changing DPI through ROM Control? I did it a couple time when playing with the settings. Worked fine.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
I only scanned that post and thought that's what he was referring to. It is possible to change DPI in ROM control. No need to use an outside app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] liquidzoo:
I thought ROM Control only gave you a list of DPIs you could change to, rather than selecting whatever you want?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
No it is possible to adjust to any number you want to try BUT DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK. It isn't advisable to try crazy settings. Depending on how you like your text, keep it between 180 and 240. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY. And remember that altering your DPI can have a negative effect on your apps ability to display. Resetting cache will usually fix this problem:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
No disrespect, but this particular post has bugged me a bit. What exactly do you feel you need to see in the way of speedy updates?? As far as I can tell this style of ROM is currently the combination of all of the ROMs available. I am trying to offer as manu options as possible, the same way I'm sure gs2usr is. But damn, it doesn't get much more user friendly. What do you want, this thing to cook your breakfast for you???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] liquidzoo:
Good to know. The last time I tried AOKP I could have sworn I couldn't change it to 195 (where I like to have my phone).

It is worth knowing, however, that changing DPI has the potential to break market links. Flashing this will fix them, though:

[MOD][ICS|JB][Inverted|Normal] Multi DPI Play Store v3.9.17

It usually gets updated every time there is a Play Store update. I use it as part of my personal gapps package that I've customized to install a bunch of things for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] taranis17:
Nope. I'm a Systems Engineer at a local healthcare organization. Thanks for playing tho. :p

Been there, done that too - in a previous life long ago. Oh the support stories I could tell...

---- moving on...

I've been running this ROM for a solid two days now, and I gotta say I'm really impressed. Definitely worthy of Daily Driver status. Right now I'm flipping between this one and another, and I just can't decide which I like better... The real test is gonna be the next time I'm traveling out-of-state - that's usually makeitorbreakit time for me.

BMP7777: I don't need it to make breakfast, but if you can get it to brew a decent cup of coffee, that'd be great! What can I say, I'm easy to please.. :p

Great job, man. I'll send some Tylenol your way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
Thanks, man. A few kind words go a long way with me. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve for the future of this ROM, I just don't have much time right now. I wasn't really trying to be rude to that guy, I just think it could have been worded a bit differently. It was sounding to me like 'I won't try your ROM unless I can count on updates' and of course not only is asking for ETAs a no-no, but I made it pretty clear I'm not going to lose any sleep if some choose to go with another ROM. Either way, Thanks again for your support and hopefully you'll like what I'm working on. My thing is to be able to offer as many choices as possible. I am a customization junkie; that's why I started flashing in the first place. I also became impatient for updates in some cases, so it's not that I don't understand. But, I decided to learn to do it myself so I could pace my work on my learning curve. Believe me when I say that I wish I just knew all this stuff and didn't have to learn it. It's coming along and I want to share what I've learned with as many interested people as I can. So, everybody hang in there, there's more to come!:angel:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] car vs driver:

I took your advice. Let you know what they say.....

I will. Might be a day or two though. Got a strange error last night while trying to sync up CM. Something about fatal error; Possible corrupted remote.....dunno

Sounds interesting. Just wish it had a catchier name. I know what ubuntu means and what they stand for, and it is apt. Just doesn't roll of the tongue. IMHO

This is where I saw it. Through numerous Google searches. Every on said this guy was the original PAC ROM creator. (Idk if that's true) I found his thread, saw he made an update and posted his changelog. I thought he either created source for it or saw something different and updated his ROM accordingly! So idk if this didn't help. I'm sorry! :) just saw it. Wanted to share.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
No problem at all. But, the git isn't updated for this as of yet, so I can't build these changes until it is. Thanks for the head's up, though. I'll stay on top of it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
Not this time, but i will try to remember to build support in on the next go round. With the constant changes taking place at git, I'm lucky to build at all. Just spent two days going back and forth over a slim build. Got it finished, and had a bootable build with no functioning WiFi. Back to the drawing board:banghead:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] datrapstar:
Hey B, granted I'm only using your aroma it still gives me the functionality of blinky. Steps I took to flash was unofficial slim, aroma, 4.2 gapps, LI1 radio. Did sum changes on build prop and I'm functional on my end. And yes I am on hercules
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Altarocks:
Still running smooth as butter. IMO this is the best ROM I've ever run on the SR.

There are only three minor issues for me:

I usually need to manually mount SD card after boot

After boot, no signal is shown. Fixed by disabling / enabling WiFi at each boot

Audio occasionally cuts out for a second. Don't know if this is related to KingBeatz since it happens with PowerAmp as well as Google Music. Kind of reminds me of the bad old eight track days ;)

1 & 2 above are really inconsequential. I'm curious if anyone else is experiencing #3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
The latest builds require manual mounting of SDcard; I added it to post#1, but it is toward the bottom and can be easily missed. Not sure why, I think it has to do with updated CM base. The signal issue is also one that has been this way for a while. I don't believe that there is actually no signal until you make an adjustment; I think it is the icon itself. Either way, I don't typically need to do anything but thumb-scroll the status bar once and it's there. This latest build hasn't required even that, at least for me. As for the sound, I haven't had that issue. I use Poweramp pro religiously, with play and apollo being secondary. No issues at all. Try clearing app cache in system settings, maybe.....let me know if you have any other issues. Compiled a new build for Blinky over the weekend, but since there aren't any mind-blowing changes as of yet in the Git world of PAC, I see no point in pumping users up with an update that doesn't have much new to offer. I will as soon as new additions are merged. Stay tuned.....

P.S. Do you have any other audio mods that you use? Not sure, but if so, extra audio mods may cause issues with already installed ones. Be cool:cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Altarocks:
Not running any other audio mods. I was turned onto aznrice2k4's audio work in BrickBeatz, and that's what brought me to your ROM in November. I used PowerAmp Pro exclusively before September, but I haven't been able to get it sound as good as BrickBeatz and now KingBeatz. I pretty much stick with Play Music now, but used PowerAmp once again to test for cut out.

I don't recall experiencing any cut out prior to 1.9.5. I've been using every version of Blinky's since I found it in November. I recently wiped my SD of all music and re-installed, but still have the cut out. It doesn't happen often; maybe once every 3 songs or so, and it only lasts a second. I've also wiped and reinstalled 1.9.5 twice but still have the cut out.

Even with the cut out the audio clarity on Blinky's is so far beyond any other ROM I'm staying put.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BMP7777:
You shouldn't ever have to dump your files and start over unless you have a corrupted SDcard. Sorry for your hassle. I'll see what I can come up with by talking to azn and get back to you. Be cool
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Altarocks:
No worries - I dumped my files because I had a ton of duplicated music files (like an additional 90GB!). I spent 3 days removing everything from my PC and reinstalling. My files were a disaster due to years of sloppy uploading on my part and it had nothing to do with Blinky's. Just thought I'd mention it.
