Yep NFC does not work on this build...wont turn on..

On another note..

when i try to overclock on this Version 8 i cant get the Numbers to stick where i set the overclock at..

i overclock inside STweaks and i set it to my desired clock..but after its idle on the charge or rebooted

it goes to not being overclocked and drops ALL the way down to min freq 100 max freq 500 :/

whats up with that?. I am using the newest AJK The One..

Phone has just been wigging out.Think i might go back to 7...it was perfect fast snappy :)

Loving the update, but NFC isn't working for me either. Not a big deal.

Also can't update Google music for some reason. Says package wasn't signed?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fronti90:
You'll probably see a fixed build at some point over the weekend with working NFC.

Yeah you probably flashed trds gapps right? Just uninstall it using Slimsizer and reinstall it from Play store
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] idunnoV2:
hey thanks for making me feeli like i waist my time :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] auTONYmous:
I don't think he meant it in a rude way, just that there's two things he needs besides reports of "this doesn't work, fix it."

1) Logcats are the way devs can see the actual errors being reported in the device. Sometimes this helps weed out user error. More often than not, this gives specifics as to what driver/hardware/software failed and why.

2) While its simple to just install a new kernel on your device,the ROM devs can't account for who built the new kernel or how. So, they can't really troubleshoot someone else's work. It's just the nature of the way these ROMs are put together.

You can't ask your car guy to "just fix your brakes" if he can't see they're warped, or if someone else put the wrong ones on your car, right? Same thing applies here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] GiSS88:
Just tried this. Uninstall worked fine through slimsizer, but now when I try to install it from the Play Store I get "Incompatible Update". I used the Aroma installer after flashing the ROM--everything else seems to be fine, just doesn't like the update for some reason.

EDIT: Nevermind, a reboot after the delete and install from Play Store fixed it. Installed fine. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shinji257:
Hmm... I tried to download this but just getting a 404 error... Issues with the server or did I just catch you in the middle of an update?

For fronti90 or anybody with expertise in this scenario

Just wanna ask if this version 4.3.3 support TRIM for keeping SSD at peak performance

And what are steps to make sure our SSD preforms to new implementation in last versions. ..older versions didn't have this. ..and for some people out there that have device for long time and did a lot of installing and deleting ....will this skipp deleted blocks or it will recognize and reuse deleted blocks in SSD
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
This is still 4.2.2, so perhaps this answers your questions right away.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:
As a general rule, the SII does not support TRIM. In fact, TRIM is responsible for the eMMC Superbrick that many SII's are in danger of falling victim to.

Any special instructions for 8.1 or just wipe cache and upgrade?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
You can upgrade, but for best results it's always best to do a clean install.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DarthSudo:
I dirty flashed and had some very strange issues... A clean wipe was required for me. I'm running very smooth on 8.1 now... I agree with Steve. You can try it dirty, but be prepared to do a full wipe and format of /system...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] GiSS88:
Bah. Just did a clean install, and don't like doing them every flash. Don't really need NFC so may just wait for next update. Thanks guys
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DarthSudo:
FYI, unless there are major issues that have not been discovered in 8.1, the next update will be on the 4.3 base... which is going to take some time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] auTONYmous:
I dirty flashed 8.1 over 8 with no problems. YMMV
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DarthSudo:
In fairness, I was testing some particularly nasty (intrusive) apps that might have contributed to the flakiness. But it's gone now on 8.1! Flash with full confidence.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PToN22:
Hello, i just moved to this ROM from SuperNexus and this is great..!

One thing, however, it is that with 8.1 i cannot turn off NFC... The tick box NFC in the settings>Wireless&networks cannot be unchecked. If done, the option greys out and you are unable to tick it again until you exit and comeback in. This NFC service is also using lots of battery.. It reports that the NFC service has used 34% of the battery.

I did a clean install with full wipe and system format before installing this ROM.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Yes, if you don't want NFC simply uninstall it from SlimSizer and all will be well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] auTONYmous:
Not sure why NFC wouldn't work for him, since 8.1 was the NFC fix build...and it works here
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DarthSudo:
I've had NFC on since I flashed 8.1 and battery life has been normal (or even a little above normal for me)... and am able to turn on or off at will.

If you get a second, can you grab a logcat from when you are trying to turn NFC on/off? I'd be interested in seeing what the phone is doing...

You may want to try wiping cache/davlic, if you haven't already so.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PToN22:
I had to split the logcat into 2.

Thanks.

EDIT: Well since i had just installed, i did re-installed the ROM again and it works now.

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DarthSudo:
Good to hear. Just out of curiosity, did you try clearing cache/dalvic? I was also going to suggest clearing cache for just the NFC Service.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BInspirinG:
Anyone have a problem with their time where it jumps X hours forward? Even if I restart or wipe caches, it will still do it randomly.

How do you get Google's calendar to work on here? When I download the calendar app from the PlayStore, it won't sync properly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DarthSudo:
No calendar issues for me. Did you flash the GAPPS package (same version as the ROM) with the ROM? A Couple of things to try: manage apps --> Calendar --> clear cache. If that doesn't do it, boot into recovery and clear cache/dalvik from there to reload everything back into cache.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BInspirinG:
Did you flash gapps 8/12 or slim gapps?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
There is link to the gapps in the OP, click on that Addon link.

Logic thinking: if you install 4.2.2 ROM, then install 4.2.2 Gapps.

They are all there.

What is "gapps 8/12" anyway? Is it even from Slimbean?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BInspirinG:
Got the calendar issue sorted out by flashing the slim gapps. The 8/12 gapps are from the CM group.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Maybe it was a bad download, always check the MD5/sha1 before flashing things. As for the recovery loss, there is nothing in 8.1 (a 4.2.2 base) that will do this, it's a clean and perfectly running rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CyanJustice:
Is anyone else having a bad wake up problem? What I mean is, this will freeze after some time being locked, and I'll have to do a battery pull. This has happened with both built-in kernel and AJK.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
I don't have quite what you're describing, but I have had the phone freeze on the lockscreen after a reboot - but only on AJK. Haven't had any problems on the stock one.

In my case with AJ, it probably has to do with slide2wake causing problems. My workaround was to quickly unlock the phone after a reboot, then lock it again. If I didn't unlock it initially and let the reboot cycle complete and lock the screen, I would have to pull the battery.

Anyway, I don't believe it's a fault of the rom as I never reported it as a bug, rather my tweaking of a custom kernel.

external SD card

Hello Steve,

I am facing another problem couple of days, not sure whether it is bug or not. The external SD card (Transcend 8GB) is detecting intermittent; changed with another 2 GB SD card, problem remains same with 2GB card as well. However, I have to restart the phone to get it work. I tried remounting and fix permissions in recovery mode as well as with the Root Explorer. The problem is still there. I could not find in hot swap when I connected with my PC either. Googled up and searched in xda as well before posting in this thread. Another problem is losing the carrier network signal very often, I re-flashed the modem I777UCMD8_modem to fix the problem, however it is still there..Any thoughts or helping hands on this issue would be appreciated. My ultimate aim is I don't want to give up this ROM as it looks and works so great in all aspects.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ehard24:
U might have some files left over from a touchwiz ROM. I had that problem a few months ago and did some serious cleaning and no problems since. Check your preload with a root browser, slim file mgr, or your choice of file explorer and make sure it doesn't have touchwiz files in it. I'd recommend going to Mr Cook's thread and getting his ROM wipe script and flashing it...wipes the rom, system, cache, and preload in just a few seconds. U will have to reflash the ROM and gapps, of course, if u use the script. But, that may be what u need to clean up all the leftover stuff.

Check the preload and delete the touchwiz stuff and reboot b4 trying the wiping script and that may fix ya up....if not then the full wipe and u should be good.

PS....I flash the script 2 or 3 times when I wipe and I haven't had any problems since.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] saravanan_ganesan:
Thanks for your suggestions. I did this before I post the message into the thread. I did clean wipe and clean install by doing wipe/factory reset and ran the scripts for kernel and ROM. I ran these scripts GS2KernelWipeV2.09 & GS2ROMNukeV2.12 before flash this kernel. I did check the Preload folder. It is empty. No clue what else I can do to fix the problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
You're using a shoddy SD card, the fault lies there. I've used Sony and SanDisk's and have never had a problem, so I can safely say it has nothing to do with the 8.1 version of this ROM. If you're running a 9100 4.3 manual port... well, you're on your own because that isn't supported here yet.

If you have done exactly like you claimed then I suggest using different uSD, Sandisk?

If the issue still persists then flash different ROM. On the new ROM if the problem is still there then your hardware is having problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] snipe2nite:
I haven't had any SD card issues using SlimBean it's been rock solid, I didn't even restart it in over 800 hours till I flashed AJK. So as others have stated it's most likely your SD card going bad. I would back up any data you don't want to lose format it and see if that helps!!! Anything is possible and if that doesn't help as Votinh said try to flash a different ROM good luck!!!! Just know that card could go out at anytime don't keep anything on there you don't want to lose........

EDIT: Try to flash a different modem I'm using LL6 but it all depends on your signal at your location. I haven't had any disconnects, AT&T is solid where I live. If nothing else flash AJK 4.9 AOSP kernel, it works beyond awesome with SlimBean!!!!!!!!!
