I'm on 2.5.9 Jeboo kernel and I can't make backups anymore. Plenty of space, it just fails right away

---------- Post added at 09:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 AM ----------

Also it seems like my ext SD card is acting like doesntmatterx's post. On my 32gb I ended up with 10.5+ GB free after some stuff somehow got deleted. Its been stable this whole month though.

On 3.0.2, Nova Launcher is exhibiting a problem that I believe existed on an earlier version of the ROM. When I tap the home key, Nova keeps minimizing all the screens to show all of them. It should simply take me back to the main default screen.

That have nothing to do with the ROM, you need to configure that in the nova settings!

That's normal because manufacturers measure it as 1000b per kb, 1000kb per mb, 1000mb per Gb, and 1000gb per tb. But devices (phones, cameras, tablets, computers, etc.) See it as 1024b per Kb, 1024kb per mb, 1024mb per gb, and 1024gb per tb. Always amounting in less actual space than advertised by manufacturers.

My settings in Nova needed to be changed. Easy fix.

I do not see where anyone is having Bluetooth connection issues but I am. I have to disconnect the device and reconnect it every time I want to use it. This includes the truck and headset.

I did not wipe everything like I normally do. I just "upgraded" from V3.

On that SD card issue, I went back to this rom after thinking this rom was the cause but now not so sure, could be my SD card. I tried Tasks AOKP rom and after moving all apps to SD it wouldn't load any of the widgets for those apps, its as if the apps weren't even installed. I went back to Shostock and will just leave all my apps on the internal storage for now, this rom is too good. Ill order another 32GB sd card (looking at the sandisk Ultra 32GB microSD from amazon). Once I get it I will test again.

Alright im almost out of here! Lol one final word,

Why buy from a company that's tanking? Because if they are any good, there best product will be there last. There's no point in supporting the one of the largest electronics manufacturing companies just because there devices are plastic. As I am experiencing now. Shock obsorbing isn't an issue, as I use TPU cases on all my devices and it has prooved to me time and again it is fine with taking all the shock itself. I have amazing internet speeds, Bluetooth is perfect, (Beter than the s2 or s3 which I own) and NFC is great. The speeds are rediculously fast on WiFi and mobile. Watch a video comparison from iPhone 5 and HTC one. As for Sho, why do you think I'm here? ;) I respect the man as much as you and will miss his brilliant wizardry..

Try a different pc. Does anything happen when connecting? See anything change in device manager? Maybe the usb port is failing? You are using the drop-down to turn on usb storage after connecting right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
Just because you moved to a different phone doesn't mean you are not welcome here...Lol

Both phones are very similar. Gorilla glass 2vs3, 1.7ghz vs 1.9ghz, 4.7 inch vs 5 inch, no external sd vs external sd, 4.1 vs 4.2 on release, better battery life(according to the ratings I saw) and lower SAR ratings on the s4. The material used for the case is really a moot point when using tpu cases or similar. I like having a thinner phone using zagg to protect it.

Anyway I hope you have great luck with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nosferatu.:
x2

I've dropped my plastic S2 I lost track how many times and there's no scratches to the screen. I vary between keeping it in a case and without and ironically I've dropped it more times when not in it's case.

It may be plastic but it's taken more than it's fair share of a beating and still runs fine with no cracks on the screen.

Very strange to get an error. Open control panel, then click install/uninstall apps, and uninstall all apps that relate to Samsung, go online, find I777 drivers, install them and then on the phone try maybe turning on usb debugging?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
I suppose you can try and edit the build.prop and remove the last line or comment it out. Then save and reboot and it should enable mtp again. Maybe that will work for you. Is it possible that maybe your usb port is becoming faulty? I don't know, just shooting out ideas. I went from Vista to w7 and then w8 and haven't had an issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 4-2ndtwin:

Multi Window type usage?

Being based on the stock Samsung rom, does SHOstock allow the use of multi-windows? I thought I had read someplace that there was an app that would allow the use of two app windows on the screen of the GS2 if you had a TW based framework and I was having visions of running Waze and Escort Live together and watching them both. I flashed the latest SHOstock today and now I cant find that article anyplace. Was I dreaming?

Basically I want to run two apps on a split screen while my GS2 is in its car dock.

I saw where Sho replied to someone early this morning and called the feature side window or multi window and said it was in his rom but damned if I can figure out if that's what I really want. Anyone got any ideas for me? Multi window hasn't been mentioned in this thread since February.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EzSqueezeCheese:
Multi-Window is a feature is Sho's ROM. To enable it, Settings>Display>Enable Multi-Window. And yes, you can split screen and view two apps at the same time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] razen_kain:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nosferatu.:
dude it's easy to run. Just enable it. Launch the first app you want. Then swipe the little blue lip on the left to the ride to load the other apps. Then drag/drop it onto the top or bottom (left or right) side of the screen you want it on. Voila.

Here ya go...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
It has nothing to do with the boot animation. It's the kernel splash screen that it will get locked on. Search the i9100 section and you will see the info. Some people call it a boot loop but it's not that. When this happens, the os never boots and /data is corrupted. It's an issue with intramfs after xxlsj. The kernel version 2.1 has a fix applied but it doesn't seem to fix it for 100% of the people in the i9100 section. The kernel v1.3 uses the xxlsj intramfs so I know it's 100% good. This is how I want things for a release of the ROM.

Long press the photo or menu while in the slide show to save. The slide show can be paused. It really doesn't matter since you can just run whatever app you want. Samsung nor I can't make everyone happy.

meh... that's what people do. When I get tired of it... I'll just stop doing this as many others have.
