Just flashed my buddies S II and when starts to boot, the splash screen doesn't show up. The phone is powered on because my PC recognizes it, and the Samsung screen pops up when first powering on. No splash screen though...any ideas? Never run into this before...

i'm flashing over from rc7... did a full wipe and flash

my home key doesn't work... not responding... any suggestions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] StickyK3ys:
So, I used rc 8 for about 2 months. Excellent daily driver. I flashed rc 9 about a week ago. Still solid with quickness, smoothness, battery life, etc, BUT that stupid call echo came back with rc 9. I couldn't talk to anyone on the phone it was so bad for them. I tried the usual, noise suppression, clean install, yadda yadda, but to no avail. Anyone else have a similar issue?

---------- Post added at 10:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 AM ----------

Before wiping, try installing a different launcher. Just a thought. If it makes the button work then you can go back to default launcher.

Bluetooth seems to be broken in RC9

I can listen to my music over BT, but cannot make calls.

Both options are selected in BT settings, only music works

There is a pause before the final splash screen...the second one is missing in all jb roms
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chan1628:
Ya, I flashed 3 diff versions of gapps (rc7, rc9 & slim gapps) and it all resulted in the same issue with the home key....

Also, the ability to set the font size to "small" is not available in rc9, so I might go back to rc7

"there is no spoon"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] android88:
I would try flashing from scratch and use the regular Gapps instead of any Slim, Liquid, etc. Gapps.

What about using TB to just restore the APKs and not the data with them? Would that still cause issues? If TB doesn't work. What do you recommend we use for backup?

Thx.​
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] android88:
You could do that. It shouldn't cause any issues.

I would recommend doing a backup in TWRP then just restoring data.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] redstorm64:
Thanks, didn't know that. Usually I'm working on my GalNex where the splash screens are working on my ROM. First time diving into the S2. I'll flash the ROM again and wait for it to boot up.

I was pissed off about the font sizes too. Got an app called Font Manager. It changes thr size to whatever you want.

So I'm getting a strange issue using the recommended gapps. Not only does the home button not work (as mentioned a few posts back), but adb doesn't seem to want to work either. Before flashing gapps, I was able to adb in and logcat, etc. But after flashing gapps, it never registers on the device that it's connected to a host computer or the computer registering a new device.

This was all done multiple times, full system/data wipe, twrp 2.3.3, md5sum checks. Just to make sure it was the gapps causing the issue. I'll be flashing a different gapps after lunch.:fingers-crossed:

---------- Post added at 01:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:51 PM ----------

Replying to my own post (because conversations with yourself are the only intelligent conversions you can have right?).. I believe the link to the 'recommended gapps' should be removed or changed. It links to gapps that were built for 4.2 ROMs and but this is a 4.1.2 ROM. I flashed the gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip file. While that fixed the home button, the adb issue I'm having still persists...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bzlik88:
The recommended gapps gave me problems as well. Mine involved a constant force close of keyboard. I just flashed a previous version.

i flash over to other roms to help test (and the fact that i'm a flashaholic)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] android88:
The inverted apps cause FC's on the people app. You have to use the regular one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skaroger867:
I use the inverted slim gapps and don't have a problem. I also use some of the slim lock screen themes too. They work fine.

I would think that was it..they are to involved with 4.2 and have already stated that 4.2 is not gonna work on Hercules....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] android88:

RC7 is probably more stable.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Koragg618:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Hype As Fruck:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Operation-A:
I am confused about RC9 I would imagine RC9 to be the best liquid smooth but there is no USB mass storage support which is a little strange. Then i look on the download page and there is a recommended Gapps that i did not see before so i want to flash it but never had to flash a gapps package over another so i don't know if i am even able to flash the recommended one over the gapps from the download page.. the one with all the roms for each phone. then i am wondering how do i get native usb support is it just not there on RC9

Is there a flashable 4.2 camera? I want the photosphere option. Also, do Cyanogen Mod or AOKP themes work on this or am I going to have errors if I try that?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] android88:
I think you can use CM and AOKP themes on this ROM. You can get the 4.2 camera here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Hype As Fruck:
On the zips, I see camera and camera rev 1... Flash 1 of them or both of them? I've seen the results of double flashing the same file so just checking whether it's a revision of the old file or a two part flash to get this.

Reason I'm asking is because the note gallery gave me a nasty hang one time on another ROM when I flashed, seen it didn't stick, then flashed the file again.

Clear notifications button disappeared?

Out of nowhere today my clear notifications button is no longer visible when I hold my phone in portrait mode. If I flip it to landscape, it's on the far right, but when I turn it back, it's gone. I've gotten it to reappear by turn some settings off and on, but then when I use it or flip my phone again when I have a new notification, it's gone. Any idea what's causing this or how I can fix it? I've rebooted several times with no success.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djtheraven:
Try wiping caches and reflashing the rom over the rom without wiping system or data...

Or make a twrp backup then wipe everything then install rom then twrp restore data and android secure only
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] trpnblies7:
I did a full system wipe and restored my apps, but the problem still persists. Could one of my apps be interfering with it somehow? It only just started today, and I haven't installed anything new.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Koragg618:
You probably have AM/PM enabled for the status bar. It moves the clear button to the far right.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] trpnblies7:
I've always had AM/PM turned on without a problem. Oddly enough, though, it's suddenly working again. I have no idea why. If it happens again, though, I'll see if switching off AM/PM makes a difference. Thanks!

For some reason, they keep downloading as rar files instead of zips. I converted the file name to zip, and it failed in TWRP. Not sure why this happened? I'll check on what's the deal in Titanium.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] trpnblies7:

I am running RC7 with my Hercules and don't have that problem. Hoping it doesn't happen to my phone.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] trpnblies7:
Yep, I don't know what caused it. I was using RC9 for weeks without any issue or change in my settings until that suddenly happened. I did a full system wipe and reinstalled, but now it keeps happening now and then. Very strange, indeed. I was going to file a bug report, but the bug tracker seems to be down. I also don't know if they're continuing development for the Hercules, anyway.

I'm using RC8 so I don't suppose it helps you to know that NFC works fine for me. If it works in RC8 and if not in RC9 perhaps it will help the developers track down the issue. One thing to make sure of is if you use a third-party battery make sure it supports NFC. The antenna for NFC is in the battery and some cheaper brands of after market cut corners by not including it.

I just was able to download Vice City recently. I've been running this ROM for 2 months now. I tried a bunch of other TouchWiz ICS ROMs previously because of being dependent on WiFi calling (found out I don't need it with Note radio and AOSP). I liked them all but this one is just too good not to stay on. I thought I wouldn't like Jellybean due to lack of flash but the browser that comes with this ROM is awesome (better than the stock S3 and Note 2 browser). This browser runs flash well and love keeping those quick settings on the browser vs using Chrome which does not do either of those two options when using a Nexus. I will be trying Cyanogen Mod, AOKP, Paranoid Android, Slim Bean, P.A.C.Man, and All-Stars soon.
