So far so good

I did a full wipe and flash of this (coming from SHOstock2 v6.2) just under 24 hours ago and I am really loving it. The only problem I am having is that I would say one out of every 5 or so times I try to unlock the phone it is just frozen and I have to press the power button again to lock it back then try again and it usually works. After the first few times that happened I disabled the ink and ripple effects but it has not seemed to make any difference. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hey sho! Psyched to see that you've come out with a shostock 3!! I've been running it for just over 24 hours and it's very smooth so far. Just wondering what launcher this is packaged with because I noticed you're no longer using apex. Also I've been told that nobody can hear me when I try to use my phone since updating. Sounds like maybe micswap got reverted? I'll be re flashing in a couple hours to see if that fixes the problem but I figure feedback never hurts! Keep up the good work!! I'm hoping to run shostock until I change phones!!

EDIT: just read the OP again after re flashing and experiencing the same problem. Should have done that first! I had to disable noise reduction in call settings. Sorry for the bad feedback!

You backup the full rom now and then correct? If you have a current backup, you can experiment all you want to see if you can fix the issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] swsl:
No, I haven't flashed anything yet but I can see now that in general, that's a good approach with quirks like this; backup, then dirty flash to see if it fixes it. Ultimately may need a clean flash, I guess. I figured to ask first in case it's a known characteristic.

I did get ahold of an ATT based SIM card (left my ST SIM in USA) and rebooted it with that installed. System settings works fine again with an accepted SIM installed, so that is a relevent variable.

Next, just to find out, I removed the ATT SIM and system settings opened once but returned to same issue there after. I then installed an unaccepted SIM and it did the same - opened once, but not again.

Now that I can get wifi again (with ATT chip), I used Galaxy Sim Unlock and it's now working with my Mexico (Telcel) SIM, data and all.

BUT, same problem again with access to system settings. Very briefly opens and goes to home.

OK, so, I can get into settings, but only with ATT sims. I can use other SIMS but no settings access. Very odd. I'll try the dirty flash and report back when I get a chance to work on this more. At least I know now that it's a real quirk and not something to do with unlock status.

Thanks

I've suddenly had issues with my gps lately where it won't lock on to a signal at all. First noticed it around Thanksgiving, then again this past weekend. Going in and fixing permissions each time seemed to fix it for a while, but the problem always returns. Luckily I don't rely on it often, but I do use it from time to time with the running app I have. May just be a hardware issue. Seems to be a few problems I've noticed as of late with this phone. :confused:

SMS outgoing fails

Anybody facing issues with outgoing SMS on this ROM? I am having issues with outgoing SMS. I am on Shostock 4.0 since the day one it released, but recently I was attempting for an online payment where the OTP request has to be initiated from the registered no as SMS. Every time I tried it fails but when I swapped the SIM with another phone it goes flawlessly:confused: Already cross checked the message center number which was found to be correct. Done a series of factory wipes plus Mr. Cooks ROM wipe, Factory reset, kernel cleanup scripts, re flashing the ROM. Re downloaded ROM thinking that if any bad download issues even though the MD5 matches but to no avail.

Shoman pls help. Any pointers to correct it? Or am I missing something?

Today my phone went into the bootloop all of a sudden which I noticed only after it heated up in my shirt pocket. Done dalvik/ cache wipe and hard reset but it didn't helped. Finally I had to do a fresh flashing but still the out going mail issue is still bugging.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] swsl:
I just remembered that I had failed to follow up on my issue here. In short, I dirty flashed it and it did not fix the oddball problem. So, I bit the bullet and fully wiped it, reflashed and that did it. Who knows what went wrong, but that's the fix and I once again have the BEST, smoothest ROM I've used on any phone. Love it, thanks so much for your work and also your clear view on how a Galaxy ROM should be. It's an art, doing it well, which can be about adding less sometimes.

This rom does not drain your battery; it's 3rd party apps and stuff syncing in the background that drain your battery. SHOstock has long been a leader in stable, light-resource-using roms, so any trouble you're having is the direct result of something rouge going on.

Back after trying PAC ROM, this one really has the best combination of great Samsung specific features (camera, MHL, neat toggles/notifications, swipe to call/message, S-Planner, etc) and customization.

I'm wondering Sho, since the release isn't marked final, if you plan to do one more final version? Perhaps incorporating some of the newest aesthetics of the Galaxy line like the flat Samsung icons and new sounds/ringtones (with classic S2/S3 stuff available), and whatever little updates could be done?

Thanks again for the rom, this S2 and I'm sure many others, have lasted much longer than most probably expected!

I had a similar problem. KitKat ROM's don't like going back to Jellybean and none of the CM or AOSP based ROM's that I've tried like going back to SHOstock. The only way I've been able to switch back and forth is to use Odin to flash a stock, rooted ( https://www.dropbox.com/s/k07we7lu013744j/ucle5_stock_rooted.tar ) ROM and then flash a custom recovery using Mobile Odin then flash the ROM of your choice. Of course the requisite wipes are needed before you start any of this but that's always given me the best results.

I'm sure someone here has a simpler way, but it seems I always end up with a soft brick any time I try a "short cut" and end up doing all that anyway.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
You need to downgrade your recovery in order to flash back to SHOstock from KK. Try flashing Jeboo's kernel from the first page, reboot into recovery and then do the appropriate wipes before re-installing the rom.

ROM flashing 101 no offence its important you wipe the internal as well when flashing a new ROM. Its also important you have a settle in period when flashing a new ROM. Its important that you make a nandroid backup of your new ROM I have two external SD cards one to keep as my daily driver inserted in my phone and one that I take out of my phone it has ROMs and backups stored on it. I keep it in its case,out of my phone its backup is current to my daily driver ROM. And lastly do you use twrp recovery it far exceeds cwm. [emoji106]

Start over completely fresh. Do a complete wipe and install.wipe your internal as well secure the ROM on your external SD card. What modem are you using? What boot loader are you on. Are you running a stock kernel? If your bouncing from a 4.3 build back and forth to a 2.3.6 and your not wiping your internal cache you app cache in active apps goes crazy because you have old cache stored on your phone these types of things will lead to problems [emoji27] and bad battery life [emoji33] you need to do a complete clean wipe internal as well and start fresh [emoji16]i used to run showies ROM on my old S2 and i can vouch for ex battery life prior I bounced around and was flash happy this led to problems and poor battery life due to what I created by not doing clean wipes and not giving a freshly installed ROM a settle in period..
