Hey Shoman off topic but...see if you can help out one of the guys in Nexus 7 land...he's got a ROM called GalaxySBean and it basically gets the Nexus 7 to look like a Galaxy S3 (does a damn good job at it). He's trying to get Multi-Window working...care to give the guy a hand? I'd love to see that feature on a tablet. :)

Here is the lockscreen shortcut fix for v1.7.

Just flash in CWM. This link will go in the OP.

I'm not sure why some users were working fine but it is what it is. Note if you already have 5 shortcuts there is no need to flash this but at the same time it won't hurt.

ok im really confused atm

hi all thanks for any help, first off id like to state that im going to be trying to fix my girlfriends phone. she updated it to 4.0.4 and its doing the S.O.D.

first there is so much stuff out there to read im confused, with things like MMC bugs and flash counters, secondary bootloaders, ETC.

So ive been looking over the posible roms to make her phone usable again, and i like the look of this fine rom here

like i said it is updated to 4.0.4 fully stock never been rooted or anything else done to it.

install instructions say i must be running a kernel with CWM... this rom doesnt come with a kernel? the kernel by jeboo v1-1a is that the one i should use?

back up EFS and full back up? do i need to be rooted or have CWM already installed to do that?

since coming from stock rom im assuming i should after installing kernel/rom wipe data/factory reset?

i have flashed on sony xperia x10a and abused the hell out of an old captivate but ever since i got my sg3 i have been out of the game for months.

researching left me with more questions and confused so plz dont just reply use the search option.i just need a little direction.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] joeybear23:
The ROM does come with a kernel, however in order to run the install, you must first have a kernel that is compatible with the installation method.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] joey3038:
ok and that falls into the im confused section dont want to hardbrick mmc bug by using wrong kernel somehow

---------- Post added at 08:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:32 PM ----------

sorry if that came off as sarcastic. i just need a kenel to use as a starting point then is what your saying?

i know how to flash with odin so which kernel do you suggest i use, it would need to be compatible with 4.0.4 right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 122ninjas:
You can use the Exynos Abuse app to give yourself root then you can use Mobile Odin to flash the zImage of Siyah 4.3.3 The zImage is inside the kernel.zip. Now you have a CWM kernel so you can go into CWM, backup full wipe and then flash the rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
Simplest way to do it is find an old siyah kernel in .tar format, flash it with odin via your pc, then reboot into recovery and do a complete wipe. Flash any Rom you want and enjoy. At least that's what I've been doing for...ever. lol.

which guide on this forum theres way to much info and much of it is outdated and posts with warnings of becareful of mmc brick and going backwards and flash counters and this kernel wont work with that rom and etc so its not that easy if your not up to date with this on a daily basis

im going from total stock. and want to keep girlfriends phone as close to stock look things like camera that need to work and look the same as stock.

the exynos apk thing looks to risky to possibly lose some things. the siyah kernel flash is probly what ill do but where to find an older one and will it have a conlfict with 4.0.4? or should i just use an odin one click. im a little rusty
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nizbot:
see link in my post above.

Root via Odin, download mobile odin, flash cwm kernel via mobile odin, then install whatever rom you like following the rom's install instructions.

make sure to backup anything you want to keep on a pc before any of this.

Fixed worked for me thanks alot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
Please understand that there is more then one way to do things. Using Odin well give you the i9100 bootscreen with a yellow triangle. I'm sure you read about that. Then you can use triangle away which is a paid app to get rid of it. If it were me, currently I'd take advantage of the exploit and use chainfire's app to root it. Then get mobile Odin from xda and install it. Also download the latest kernel from ktoonsez's thread and pull the zimage from the zip and put it on your card. Also at that time download the Rom and put it on your card. Install titanium backup if you choose to save any data apps and back up accordingly. Open mobile Odin....click cancel.... under kernel option choose your zimage you previously saved and select flash firmware. After you boot.... power off then use the 3 button to get into cwm. In cwm... go into the option to backup your efs... I think titanium back can do this also.... Then select wipe data... goto the Rom and flash. Reboot and wait about 5 minutes for it to finish installing.

Hope that helps..

Installed 1.7 this morning and it's been running great. Thanks again. One bug I found was using multi window with YouTube and the sick browser, when I closed one app, the other one took up the whole screen but the multi window bar in the middle remained even after toggling it on and off.

Reboot recovery.

Wipe cache and dalvik.

Fix permissions.

Re-download update. Check MD5. (might need later - do the following while this is downloading)

Download GPS Test from The Play store. Start the app. Turn on gps. Wait.

You may have a delay, be patient. It could be up to 5 minutes.

No dice?

In GPS Test, Menu button, Settings, Update AGPS. Wait up to 5 minutes or so.

Still no dice?

Full wipe. Try again. (minus download, if it's good it's good)

Im not sure why im experiencing lags here and there even though I have the auto end task manager running at the background to clear the memory. Do u guys experience the same thing? I often hold to kill each app after I used them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Tweak4fun:
Try disabling the auto end of your task manager (not sure which one you're using). Generally, the use of those apps are frowned upon. That could very well be the cause of your lag as the apps need to restart every time that you access them. Jellybean (and ICS) are MUCH better about managing the memory now. If that doesn't help, try rebooting to recovery, clear cache, go to advanced, wipe dalvik, reboot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dsmboost:

I just have to say I LOVE this ROM. I've been using custom ROMs since my first Captivate (the only way that phone ever worked right). I've used several GB and ICS ROMs on my S2 and finally took the leap to ShoStock3 last Friday. My phone has never worked this well. No lockups, great signal, great call quality. Literally, no hiccups yet. I was using AJ Newkirk's Semi 18 which was a great ICS ROM. I admit I like the Samsung look over AOKP.

Anyway, I just wanted to say a thanks - what XDA developers do is quite impressive and your patience is particularly impressive.

This is my first post in a developer forum and I made the effort just to be able to weigh in on how well this ROM works. I've read every post and check the updates daily. I'm not one to install every update as this is a work phone that needs to be reliable when I travel, but once I see there aren't any significant issues, I'll continue to update based on features and fixes. My coworkers are jealous - not sure I want to put this on their phones as they are tech averse and aren't as able to deal with potential issues as I am. Plus, I'm very comfortable with CWM, backups, wipes, TiBackup, etc.

Edit - I also wanted to say I'm getting great battery life, better than any other ROM I've used. It took a few days, but it works well now. I'm still chasing down some WiFi activity that seems ongoing, but even with that, I'm getting a long day.
