Firstly, there is no chance that AT&T will do 4.2.2 for its S2 variant.

Secondly, the news was virtually 3 months ago, I hope we won't have another thread/post like that 3 months later.

What is the point anyway?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] NegativeSpace:
The article seems to indicate 4.2.2 would be end of the line for this phone. makes sense. I'd expect to see 4.2.2 push to the tier 1 devices then 4.2.2 for ours. Then when 4.3 and above push, we likely wouldn't see it. C'est la vie.

Notification/Status Bar Brightness

Does anyone know how to increase Notification/Status bar brightness? Mine is too dark so most of the icons on it look hardly recognizable. Only when a message pops up on it (like "Installing..."), it has higher brightness and looks OK. But right after that the bar returns to its regular dark state.

If 4.2.2 comes to the S2, it would be for the international version which would modified the same was Sho & Jeboo got 4.1.2. AT&T pretty much abandoned the i777 S2 when the Skyrocket came out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nosferatu.:
who cares about 4.2.2. I have a Nexus 7 you're not missing anything special being on 4.1.2 on this device. Also, as I predicted I felt this was the end of the line for ShoStock3 for our phones. S4 is out we're history. It's okay it's rock solid stable and am happy with the device. Only gripe is my battery is showing it's age and no longer holds as well as it used to...

since you're learning the S4, can you tell so far if you make a ROM for the AT&T S4 will it work over on the T-Mobile S4? That one has all the same frequency bands and is unlockable already and workable on AT&T's network.

Before we start looking into that route we need to get the AT&T version going.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] h3lluvaninjuhneer:
In my opinion, 4.2.2 is a buggy release. My Nexus 7's battery life has been cut in half since the "upgrade" from 4.1.2. (This might also explain the S4's slightly disappointing battery life vs. the HTC One.) Other than lock screen widgets, there's nothing to write home about with 4.2.2.

I'm not the only one reporting the 4.2.2 battery drain problem.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] h3lluvaninjuhneer:
I don't know why you feel like doubting me so vehemently, but I know my battery life was much better while on 4.1.2 (4+ months) prior to rollout of 4.2. I pre-ordered the N7, so I had quite a bit of experience with it on 4.1.2. My standby time went from 5-6 days (with moderate use) to 3-4 days (untouched). With even moderate use (~1 hour/day), it won't last 2 days. I have very few apps installed on it, and my usage has not changed. (If anything, I use it less.) My N7's battery life was cut nearly in half literally overnight when 4.2 OTA'd. Factory reset helped prevent other problems I was having with 4.2 (random reboots, etc) but did nothing for battery life or lag issues that were introduced with 4.2. My N7 is bone stock, unrooted, and only 1 user (no multi user). Most others have reported lag issues disappeared after deleting additional user accounts, but this does not apply to me.

Keep on doubting, but many other users have reported the same.

Now can we get this thread back on topic? :o
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
I don't think he doubt you at all.

He just states what it should be, in general.

If I have to chip in my thought, I would say the same thing.

As for you case, do I believe you? Sure, why not, you know your case better than anyone in here.

For testing the battery, you can reverse back to 4.1.2 to see whether you still have 5 or 6 days (with moderate use) or less.

Battery aging is one factor, take that into consideration.

Again, it's i777, why on earth you guys talking about the N7?

My phone with "moderate use" won't last 18 hours, left alone days.

I've noticed my notification tones aren't wanting to work lately. When I receive a text, the tone I have set for it will sometimes sound, sometimes not. My alarm tone also decided to pick quite an inconvenient time not to work the other day. I don't think it is a hardware issue, since any video/song/sound clip works fine when I play it manually. :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] twcobra:
I found something interesting. When testing AJK 2.02s a few of us where having the phone freeze trying different profiles. I flashed the stock touch kernel and of course everthing was ok. Until I tried using set cpu to change the govenor to PegasusQ. After I change the governor the phone froze again. Put the default ondemand govenor on and all is well. When I get a chance I will duplicate the issue and pull a logcat. For now the stock setting are working great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
Since that has never happened to me all I can say at this point is try and reflash.

Sounds kernel related since that is what handles the governor.

Being that this is a LEAK (hoping that caps will encourage more thought) for the INTERNATIONAL (again) variant of the Galaxy S2, I'm impressed. I haven't had any issues with the ROM and no calling echo that a poster has said to have because the mic on my phone doesn't work. Period. No one can hear me unless I turn on speaker or use my Bluetooth. My mic = Hardware issue = Can't put phone to ear.

I knew that the S2 was going to get a build like this but it all depended on when. It is here via leak for the international and Sho here has made it possible to run on the AT&T variant. I'm really excited to have this running on my phone. I am one step closer to a Galaxy S3.

For that, I thank you.

Hey Sho, flashed this earlier. Loving it! Thanks for all your hard work!

If I may make one suggestion, can you remove the very faint blue line in the notification bar above the toggles and below the clock? I think it'd make it a lot cleaner looking. If not, it's ok :)

Also, the ONE reason I was excited that it was 4.1.2 over 4.1.1 was one finger notification expanding, and it seems Sammy took that away from us. Dammit, Samsung, IT WAS ALREADY THERE!

TriangleAway will work, but you may need to use a different kernel.

This ROM thinks my phone is still encrypted - and its not!

Short story: I flashed this ROM and then encrypted my whole device. Then, I wanted to factory reset. So I went to CWR and factory resert, then used Nnandroid backup. It never worked and I had to send my phone back to stock.

[MENTION=1670609]shoman94[/MENTION], your ROM thinks that I still have an encrypted phone, and will prompt me for a non existing password whenever I use this ROM. Then, no matter what I enter, it will reboot and try to decode clean partitions! I can use any other ROM (I am running 4.2.2 at the moment), except yours (which, is a bummer since this ROM is my all-time favorite!).

I've done a complete flash of everything - including the boot-loader. Gingerbread, ICS, ShoStock2, SuperNexus2 and the AOKP Task650 will run great.

I'm going to likely return the S4 tomorrow and go with T-mobile variant and root that. I'm going T-mobile in a few months anyways. I'd love to know if your ROM works on that phone since it's basically the same hardware (just some additional LTE radios).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] razen_kain:
IF you can get it to boot up again, you can use rom customizer app. It will cue a file from your SD card for flash in recovery. Just confirm and it will do all the work for you and then reboot. No button pushes.

However i recommend putting whatever you want to flash on the internal SD card as it sometimes has trouble with the external card.

Mine did the same thing but I opened the case and sprayed some CRC electronics cleaner into the edges of the power button and pushed it a few hundred times. Now it pretty much works most of the time. If it's failed then this won't work but if it's jammed or the connection is dirty then this might clear it up enough for you to use recovery. Make sure it's electronics cleaner because anything else will cause static charge and conduct electricity so it would mess up the board.
