Its true i followed the method and never had any problems it flashed without a hitch the only issue im having now is a few things arent working right and voice dialer seems to hang up on me but other then that cm is amazing
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IndigoAK:
If you read up a ways, I think somebody mentioned that the voice dialer thing is a bug in CM itself, not an issue with this particular phone.

That is the apn pulled off of my stock S959G. The only thing I changed was deleting the proxy addresses since that is how this network checks your data usage to throttle.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] biohazard2004:
Works in Europe :)

Ok first of all i want to thx all senior member for helping me to unlock phone to work in europe. If admins dont mind i want to write again step by step for dummys how to unlock S959G to work for all carriers worldwide.

Thx to r00t4rd3d:

With Odin flash this in the PDA slot - http://d-h.st/Id6 (This is the newest version of ClockWorkMod Recovery required to flash CM10.1)

Download these two zips and place them on your SD Card - CyanogenMod 10.1 Nightly and GAPPS

Boot into Recovery , install the CyanogenMod zip first then the GAPPS zip then factory reset/wipe the cache and finally reboot.

After that download radio AOSP-ATT-i777UCLK3 - http://db.tt/TBzIPEv6 and put it in ur SD card.

Shut down ur phone hold both - volume down and volume up and press turn on button and when it's shows samsung galaxy s2 release turn on button. Go to - install zip from sdcard / - choose zip froom internal sdcard ... and choose AOSP-ATT-i777UCLK3. After install reboot. After inserting Sim card it will ask for network code klick DISMISS, and go to PlayStore and download Samsung_S Unlock and do step 1 and 2 it will shot u signal on the top of ur smartphone. And u are done.

Again thx to all people who spend a lot of time to make this true. :)))))))

One other thing I have noticed since running cm 10.1 is that battery life has increased dramatically over the stock ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] angelj73:
as stated before reset and wipe should be performed BEFORE rom installation

slightly different phone but same procedure http://youtu.be/1YcFuUq4bxA?t=46s
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Spinergy02:
So you have to unlock your phone if you install the i777 modem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] angelj73:
no. the unlock is so that you can use other carriers sim cards
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Spinergy02:
So once again to clarify.. The sim that comes with the have from straight talk will still work without unlocking after installing the i777 modem?

It will still work

Hmm. Is it avail for download? I'm willing to test ROMs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] roughmouth:
Problems i have noticed so far

I will start by saying that this is a great rom. the only problems i am experiencing are:

1. my wife complains that she hears herself echoing when she calls me. noise suppression is disabled for calls and i have the latest radio so this is something that is either a bad in the mod or i have something set up wrong. most likely i have something set up wrong. if anyone has any info to fix this i would appreciate the help.

2. my wife is able to send pictures to others via text but my device will not download them or not get them at all. the interesting thing is that she can send pics out to other people and they will get it. also i was able to receive pics from someone using an s3 device though slow and out of order of when sent. this may also be something that i have failed to set up correctly. any suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] r00t4rd3d:
If you have the newest CWM Recovery installed you can flash any i777 rom with a little trick. Download the rom, from the zip extract the file build.prop from the /system folder and copy it over and replace the /system/build.prop file on your phone. Put the rom and gapps if needed on your sd card, reboot to recovery, factory reset/wipe cache, install rom then gapps, reboot.

1. I asked Entropy if people should be using that new modem.bin and his response = "Entropy512> r00t4rd3d: no, that "AOSP modem" crap is bullsh*t".

2. Triple check your APN settings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] roughmouth:
1 ok i will go back to stock modem and

---------- Post added at 01:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:51 AM ----------

any other ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Specifically, "AOSP" CWM modem packages vs. non-AOSP ones are just a result of some of the non-"AOSP" ones being built by someone who didn't know how to properly create an update.zip.

Use whatever modem is best for your region. I don't see what the obsession people here have with flashing I777 modems is...

Personally I've never changed my I777's modem... Still on UCKH7 or whatever the stock one was on launch day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jack_R1:
Entropy, I have an idea - perhaps this phone can be useful for I777 users as well.

Coming from HTC phones, I'm extremely annoyed by Samsung recovery+kernel idiocy to this day. This phone's bootloaders allow changing a standard I777 to have separate kernel & recovery, which in turn allows having normal touch-based recoveries that stay regardless of kernels. Is it possible to extract bootloaders from S959G and flash them on I777?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] StoneComputers:
There would be zero reason for that since its GB and its locked down with hidden bloatware. You would have to use the byop sim and it would be like crippling your i777... but I don't see why it wouldn't work... just not one reason why you would want to... we all agree that the hardware is nice but the software is crap... they have hidden Tracphone software that monitors your texts, numbers dialed, and websites... I don't know what they are doing with that data if anything but I learned about it when I installed Avast anti theft it said there was a program getting my texts before I did (higher up on the chain) plus they have it so if the phone was returned to the store or stolen without being registered nothing will work on the phone stock.. (I saw this when I returned one of mine I was going through it to wipe it before they took it back at WalMart and as soon as she scanned it back in the system the phones data and other settings dissapeered then said unregistered phone across the screen.... kind of scary that they can do that with a phone that we pay full price for... perfect reason to turn it into a i777

Oh I just Re read your comment you said bootloaders... my bad...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] angelj73:
which one are you using supernexus or supernexus 2.0? any problems so far?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IndigoAK:
Don't all cell phones work this way? Even with unlocked phones, the phone still needs to be registered on whatever network you intend to use it on before it will work. Unlocked just means that you can register it on a different network later.

As for Straight Talk monitoring your texts and stuff - this isn't unusual. Prepaid phones are ideal for illegal activities and Straight Talk has to bear the responsibility if one of their customers uses T-Mobile or AT&T's network for something shady. There isn't a guy sitting in a cubicle somewhere reading everything you write, but there probably is a computer algorithm looking out for certain key words. I also know for a fact that they have an algorithm that keeps track of how often you make calls and how long they last because I've had friends who had their accounts suspended because Straight Talk's system detected their were making calls consistent with illegal activity.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
I've thought of that...

The problem is, messing with bootloaders is a highly dangerous operation (with the exception of Superbrick, the only way to hardbrick a device) and I'm not sure if it's worth the risk.

It's funny how some thought that the S959G was a locked-down device simply because it had a better and more capable bootloader. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] StoneComputers:
No not all cell phones work in this way. Yes the mainframe has a government attachment to find key words to stop terrorists and such, but im talking about at a phone level is weird. These programs are not on the home brewed ROMs and this is a reason for flashing my phone to them. There is a system in this country for at least the appearance of privacy and straight talk monitoring my texts at the phone level because they do not have an infostructior of their own is not what i signed up for. I will be flashing my phone again soon im just trying to find the right ROM and the time to do it.

Its hard to control the internet because a lot of the mail frames are in the house or business of the owner or rented from a privet co... Its the last and final free frontier and they are trying to time it... Heck who knows maybe they are seeing this thread from all of us logging on to it from our compromised devices... LoL like a conspiracy.... No matter what you do you are being watched... All we can do is limit to how many their are right? Enough about this crap anybody else use any other ROM that works nice?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] OneHandMan2010:
Okay. Not getting this at all.

Ive been following the thread for a while, and was astounded by the quick progress everyone has made.

Forewarning: This is my first Android phone and my first attempt at rooting. Im a total noob.

Here's my problem.

Ive been trying to do the CWM install on post 519 of this thread.

I put phone into download mode, put the CWM-Recovery.tar.md5 file into the PDA slot, and flash it. It flashes without fail (says it passed) and phone reboots no issues.

From there, I try to boot into Recovery so I can install CM 10.1 and GAPPS, but it just boot loops the logo until I let go of Vol Up, Home and Power and then it boots normally.

Any help?

APNs

Okay, so like I said, I have my APN settings here.

When I started having issues with the default one, I created a second one and used another set of ST settings in this thread. I have the screenshots from my phone to show them for visual reference, for the sake of page load times, I put them in code boxes to shrink them down:

Default APN:

[ATTACH]1622128._xfImport[/ATTACH]
[ATTACH]1622129._xfImport[/ATTACH]
[ATTACH]1622130._xfImport[/ATTACH]

When I noticed I was having MMS issues, I created a second APN to tweak settings with and derived it from r00t4d3d's post (#519):

[ATTACH]1622131._xfImport[/ATTACH]
[ATTACH]1622132._xfImport[/ATTACH]
[ATTACH]1622133._xfImport[/ATTACH]

Any ideas? Ive tried nearly all settings I can dig up in this thread, but to no avail.

Like I said initially, mobile data for Internet and apps still works just fine, and calls are working 100%. MMS is the only thing Im finding to be hindered.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cynnar:
I know on byop plan you need to delete all other apn except for the one you are using. From what I understand is that the phone will automatically switch the apn as needed. also for the byop I had to make a new apn just for mms. Maybe the same thing needs to be done here. Someone try these settings and see if they work.

Hmm.... delete the mms apn and add add mms to your straight talk apn at the end of some type. Should look like default,supl,mms and you may need to add // in mmsc to look like this http://mmsc.cingular.com

In go SMS try leaving mms proxy blank and see what that does.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ljdelight:
Yes sir, Jellybam ([1]) does indeed work on the SGH-S959G for the Straight Talk network. I have tried it myself, and it works great! Do a nandroid, flash it, and test it out yourself. Also the Jellybam page states that it does come with gapps so there is no need to flash gapps (CM10.1 needs gapps).

If you already have ClockworkMod recovery, then you just download the i777 Jellybam ROM from [2] and flash it in recovery.

If you're on stock and need CWM, put the phone into download mode and use Odin to flash the file r00t4rd3d posted at [3].

Try it out! I think i have a new favorite for the week...
