hmm i dont think that would be the case cause if i would to travel then i would have issues sending mms, right? I believe it has to do more with the sim card and how its provisioned

I know for sure tho, if you have a ST branded sim it should be wap.tracfone .... att byod sims are att.mvno

also, try putting hipri into your apn type field to look like this "default,supl,mms,hipri" ... hipri= high priority ... we talked about it once in the samsung infuse forums and on howardforums and some people saw a difference in speed .. i have it , no issues here

Also @ the few others who responded to my issue:

All other APNs have been deleted. As far as I know Ad Block is not on this phone, unless it's something embedded in another app.

I tried all those various MMS settings. So far a setting difference hasn't made a difference.

I read in one place something about the SIM card needing to reference the phone's number or something, which could be remedied by MMSing yourself. Whenever I tried to do that, it just caused an error:

"Unfortunately, the process com.android.mms has stopped."

i have my density set to 241. not to big not too small. i am also using siyah and is working good.

this may have been answered already but dose anyone know why my phone, seems to echo back to the person on the other end of a call. i don't echo to them or myself but there own voice echos back to them. any ideas and if so any way to fix? this has been happening since i went from stock to cm10 and every rom since.

[QUOIE=mr-cook;38094234]Ok. I'm on SlimBean 1.0 Stable with the real dark Slim Gapps. I still have the Siyah CWM?

I made a backup to the ext.SD and one to the internal SD also with no problems at all. You may have just gotten a bad with load.

Man those inverted Gapps are nice.[/QUOTE]

Ok, i reflashed to Phil Z recovery and it didn't work! I had to flash the original cwm recovery and it finally let me back it up!! Yes, the inverted gapps are awesome!!! There is a theme in the market called Hue, and its pretty sick with this rom! I do miss edge zoom though, i found myself using it quite a bit, but overall love this rom!!

hasnt this been an ongoing problem for you? you posted something similar to this back on pg. 63 post #623 and got some replies.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mr-cook:
It would help with more info what ROM, kernel?

Echo could be from a case, holding your hand near the mic, or turning up the mic gain.

You said before you had noise suppression off, turn it on.

If it's only one person that hears it, it could be their phone. Or it could be issues with the network.

Nobody else is reporting echo so most likely that few that have it are having device specific issues.

Have you tried going back to stock to see if that fixes it?

ran into a problem with straighttalk

Straight Talk disabled my GS2 for doing something called "traffic pumping" and are saying i need to buy a new phone.. i had no clue what that was until i looked it up.. anyway i bought a new GS2 and when i put the sim card into my old GS2 from the new one it works... now im thinking this is my chance to try and root the new GS2 that way if i mess up i can just return it to walmart and get another one, this will be my frist time rooting and its real complicated for somebody that has never done it before but im take that chance, i need somebody from here thats willing to walk me step by step via instant messenger or i guess we can do it threw here, anybody willing to do that? i know the basic steps

-Download Odin and unzip wherever you prefer on your computer.

-Download the Root zip, and place on the root of your Ext.SD.

-Download CWM V6.0.2.7 Odin flash, and install it using Odin with the provided instructions.

-Boot into CWM make a backup.

-Flash the root zip in CWM.

but wanna make sure i do everything rite. like for expample, it saids place the root zip on ext SD card, but do i take the sd card out my phone and place it into the sd slot, or do i do it via cable?

and it says boot into cwm and make a backup, but how do you make a backup?

then it says flash the root zip in cwm
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IndigoAK:
Are you sure they said traffic pumping? If that's really what they said, going by the definition available if you type "traffic pumping" into Google, Straight Talk just scammed you out of another $350, since traffic pumping doesn't occur at the user level.

You need the PhilZ CWM first if you don't already have it.

Put it on your sd card, boot into CWM, wipe cache and dalvik cache, flash kernel, reboot recovery, go to kernel specific options and reset ExTweaks profiles. Reboot.

The siyah kernel has evolved into AJK. Search the threads for AJK i777. The current version is 1.3 at the moment. They install easily in recovery just like you flash a rom. Just make sure that you already have Philz custom recovery, otherwise the ajk kernel won't work. Also read the installation instructions carefully. You have to clear cache and dalvik, flash the kernel, reboot recovery, then reset stweaks.

I haven't switched my kernel just yet thinking about giving that AJ 1 a shot just to help some more with battery life looks like mr cook is having good luck with it but I use a few apps to help with battery also

CPU sleeper

kills 1 of the cpu cores when the screen is off and boosted my battery life alot with just that

android assistant

I use for alot of things but it has a decent task killer in it also that I use to get rid of running apps without me having to worry about it and I dont know if you mess with it in the dark much but I do and its bright on the eyes even all the way down so

night mode

allows you to take the brightness down even further which also helps did find a problem with that night mode app though if you try to install an app you cant click the install button while its running for some reason but other than that its good.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Spinergy02:
AJK has several different governors to control cpu usage. It also has an option to modify screen auto brightness to work more like it should (a bit dimmer than stock). I'd suggest ruining it without those extra apps you are using and hop through a few power cycles just to see how it works for you. I've been using the rav4kar profile with a few small changes and my battery life and phone performance it's so much better.

1 ) Sometimes when I get an email or a text message.. the icon still shows a little " 1 " on it like I didnt read it?

2 ) Games are not working. Tried Jewels Star, Words With Friends and Cut the Rope and they dont get past loading up?

3 ) The whole system seems to lag?

4 ) When I restart.... some app icons are no longer on my home screens?

Do you have a bright wallpaper set? Dark, or no wallpaper help with battery. Also auto brightness. I have mine turned down quite a bit, I don't like a real bright screen. In STweaks you can turn your screen down with "gamma shift". For me -35 seems to be a pretty comfortable level, and if I really want to save I go down to -50. Plus setting no wallpaper makes your apps really pop off the screen.
