[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Sur2eaL:
Unfortunately I've been forced to remove this ROM and resort to my previous back up of Jedi jelly.

When I reboot my phone on this rom its fine when completely stock with no play store apps installed. I did an app restore with rom toolbox pro. Rebooted into recovery to fix permissions and upon boot it makes it to the boot up screen animation, then it freezes, I can actually hear the phone still continuing to boot up and load the lock screen as I can hear my notifications going off but the display remains frozen.

I tried starting over from a clean slate again followed the instructions to a T, installed my apps manually, reboot and same situation. I attempted to reboot the phone multiple times and a few times it would make it pass the boot animation and onto the lock screen but the display would just freeze there and the phone is unresponsive. All I can do is lock/unlock the phone turning the screen on/off but it's froze to the lock screen.

I've been messing with it for hours now and don't have time to narrow it down to which app by trial and error, the apps I reinstalled are my must have use daily apps and are in the list as follows, maybe someone else has the same problem and one of these apps installed.

Tapatalk

Holo launcher hd

Gosms pro

Mma underground

Sportscenter

Hotmail

Speedtest

Romtoolbox pro

Titanium back up pro

I'd love to give this rom another try with a future update, unless someone has some possible ideas to fix this reboot issue. Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] netomel:
Titanium backup is a better option to restore apps on any rom. Should give it a try. I usually redownload tibu and some key apps to avoid problems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Sur2eaL:
I tried to install my key apps manually. With no restoring from any app and i still experienced the problem.

P.S. I normally do use titanium, just recently I saw a known poster recommend Rom toolbox pro so I gave it a try. Seemed slower than titanium when restoring apps, but has a nicer, more user friendly layout IMO.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ganja_guru:
I can confirm this issue too. A reboot fixes the problem. On a side note, an alarm did not go off today and I have had a random reboot. Hoping these were isolated one time issues. Battery life is incredible.

If this is the case. ... I'm pretty sure ur recovery is out of date. Think my twrp is 2.3.3 now. Try updating ur twrp then give it another shot

Just a thought... Try turning off noise reduction in call settings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MikeySmikey:
This is just a suggestion, but after reading what you said and comparing your results to mine, here's what I come up with that could be possible variables:

Recovery. I'm on sk8's latest touch recovery.

Restoring with Rom Toolbox. I used TiBu and haven't had a problem.

You rebooted into recovery and fixed permissions. I honestly have only done this a handful of times and have never done it after restoring apps, only when manually pushing an apk to /system/app.

Something is telling me it's fixing permissions that's causing the problem, but I don't know. Try restoring with TiBu and just running it. If everything seems to work fine after 5-10 minutes reboot and see what happens.

USB plug in

Still having issues with connecting to PC via USB...

I've tried toggling things in USB utilities, USB debugging...

Nothing happening

Any clues?

I've tried your suggested method of removing the driver with USBDview and then re installing fresh... no luck with that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] notiones:
24 hours on ROM with no issues and great battery life.

Using sk8's latest. Followed all installation directions in op. Turned off multi-window and auto-rotate. let settle. Installed all apps fresh.

I did have to unmount sd card during installation so I could see and install the second file without rebooting. This is of course already documented in this forum.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] daviebeach:
Try AirDroid from the Play Store. Uses a browser window and your local WiFi. Works great for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] WheresWaldo:
Back to the LL3 leak.

Well I have given up on this ROM until there is a 6.1, went back to the LL3 leak. This last time I did not restore any apps, instead installing all my apps from the Play Store, first reboot stuck at boot animation, subsequent reboots stuck at lock screen with the same symptoms; not AT&T, no WiFi symbol, no signal bars. There is definitely something about this ROM that my phone doesn't like. So off to debloat the leak and restore my TiBU. Will keep tabs on this thread to see how this ROM progresses.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JHK1984:
I've used AirDroid a few times, not bad.

I just got it fixed however...I did a battery pull and restarted the phone, it went through a looooooong boot logo sequence and eventually booted up with a 'android is upgrading'.

Now I get the 'connect to USB' when I drop down the notification menu.

Thanks all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
For all you people with supposed rotate freeze and other issues:

Turn off multi window and smart stay like it says in the OP.

Use an up to date recovery.

Do the proper wipes

Use the UCLL3 radio

Don't alter files if you don't know what you're doing. Just because someone posts up an altered ui doesn't mean it's right or good to use.

Stop trying to be cute and doing things your way, it doesn't turn out well.

Follow these simple rules and you can be problem free like myself and mohan.

Good things are coming, enjoy!

I'm with you man. I pretty much run my roms as the dev designed and have no problems, especially with Mohan's stuff. He's smarter than I in these respects so I don't muck with it. This rom, with a few minor and known exceptions, is rock solid (just like the leak was).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mrro82:
I'm on day 2 of using this ROM and it's like a fine wine. Gets better with age. Also, for those interested, FoxFi works great. I'm using it right now and typing this from my Chromebook. The proxy feature works as well. Good stuff Mohan. :D

I was about to try it,then i saw it was pretty much complicated to flash :rolleyes:

Does someone have some zip file to flash this recovery, that would be much easier... ?

Don't use goo to choose your roms or find updates or anything. Just use it for installing twrp
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MikeySmikey:
The only reason Goo Manager was bricking peoples phones was because people weren't paying attention to what they were downloading and flashing a rom/file/recovery not meant for their specific device. Goo Manager is perfectly safe as long as you know what you're looking for.

I recommend sk8's latest CWM touch recovery. Find his thread, download his latest version and flash through your current recovery. And don't worry about the updater.sh file mentioned at the beginning of the thread, that can be confusing and mess things up if you're not familiar with adb and cmd.

Here's a link to his thread:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dulexetina:
Yeah,i read somewhere that goo manager can brick the phone,so i gave up from updating my recovery.I think i have a zip for older version,can just replace the img file inside and than flash it to update?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MikeySmikey:
If you really want to stay with TWRP here's a direct download link for a flashable zip I just pulled from vincom's thread. It's the latest version, 2.3.3.0. Flash it through your recovery like you would anything else.

User error causes bricks. Goo is fine if you're not a moron. Don't flash things that aren't for your phone and no brick!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ATRIXXIRTA:
There is also 2 options in Settings>Display called "Smart Stay" and "Smart Rotation" that are not operational. I cant wait for the smart rotation feature to be working as i read in bed a night on my phone a lot. But perhaps some people have these options checked and dont realize and maybe its causing some unwated side effects or issues. Just a thought. I wish people could have the same experience with this rom as i do because its been unbelievably good. I think that knowing this is based on samsungs official work has made me an official samsung junkie. I was kind of on the fence before, not really prefering one company over another when it came to android. But this s*** is impressive.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] -Graff-:
Flashed #1 & 2 no problem. Flashed wifi notification disabler (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2065674) and lowered dpi to 204. ROM customizer disappeared from settings.

Man, I really didn't want to reflash.

The UCLL3 radio is bada**! I went from a sketchy 3G/2G that occasionally dropped the signal altogether... To a steady 4G w/ 4 bars showing. Impressive!! Thx to the contributors for this :thumbup:

Day what... 2 or 3 of this ROM, my endurance run 3 1/2 hours of screen time, wifi on due to being in a crappy cell coverage area, push e-mail on 3 accounts and I got 26 hours of use before I dropped below 10%.

This ROM is insane, just had to say it again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mindmajick:
+1000 on goo manager user error.

Rumors like this are not good. Anecdotal evidence is NOT science. This stuff drives me nuts.

Same thing with this rom. If you follow instructions to the T, no issues. This rom is practically flawless. No sod. No freeze.

Like Mohan said- if you have an issue please provide a logcat. Otherwise I recommend everyone assume user error.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] powerserge1:
I am not sure why some are having problems flashing this ROM. Read the original post then reread. If you follow the instructions and wipe everything properly then everything should go smoothly.

I did have one issue however and saw a couple of people with the same issue with restoring APEX launcher. This ROM would boot to the lockscreen then freeze after I restored APEX using Mybackup PRO for some reason. So I wiped everything again, reflashed EMBRYO, restored everything except for APEX and my themed apps (cannot apply a theme to this ROM) and everything went fine. Then I downloaded and installed APEX from the market, ROM asked me to choose browser of choice, selected APEX and everything has been flawless ever since.

I believe APEX and TOUCHWIZ home were conflicting initially, at least that's the obvious conclusion.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Moverf16:
New issue just popped up today, non app related (I think):

My bluetooth Motorola S-10 will not connect (doesn't even show up under devices), and after three attempts of scanning, Settings does a FC. With bluetooth connected (it connects to my truck just fine), using the Settings button from the App Drawer results in an immediate FC. Turning off bluetooth does not result in an FC.

SVoice has also stopped working completely (when you make a voice command, it just goes back to the homescreen).

Any thoughts?

Did u properly pair the device? Once paired, did u open BT settings, press on the paired device, then enable the BT for phone audio?

Just flashed UCLL3 and initial tests in the same exact location showed same speeds but twice as fast ping responses.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Moverf16:
When I go to BT settings, it does not show up in the list of available devices. Even with the S10 ready for pairing, it shows no devices found.

After hitting scan again, it gives me the three buzzes then "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped" and then there's a notification "Bluetooth Disconnected."

---------- Post added at 03:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 PM ----------

Just tried turning on the bluetooth device without doing anything to the phone. The phone buzzed twice then said "bluetooth disconnected" and gave me the "unfortunately, settings has stopped" error again.

Weird.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] skyrockets:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Moverf16:
Your Motorola S10?

My truck bluetooth (phone only) works, but the Motorola is causing Settings to crash (media/Phone). It was working before this ROM, so it's not the device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] skyrockets:
Sorry, misread. I thought when you turn on bluetooth the phone FC's.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hednik:
So can't all the people who want to flash with TWRP just glash sk8's recovery in TWRP, reboot flash this in CMW and then flash back to TWRP ?

Seems like a no brainer to me, worked for me. BTW Mohan's warning on installation steps is warranted but it's not like it's really an different than any other ROM I've flashed. I get nervous everytime I have to use ODIN to do anything *cringe*. Wife seems to be able to fight through the occasional call audio issue. Customization was well planed out and simple, CM or AOKP can be a bit intimidating to a novice.

I have bolded the part about flashing the notification disabler and removed the unnecessary link.

Obviously you did not got through the settings, no need to flash anything to disable the Wi-Fi notification just go to:

Menu ->Settings->ROM Customizer->Statusbar

Scroll to last item "Wi-Fi Connect Notification" and make sure the box is not checked.

What other stuff have you flashed? Are your problems self-inflicted?

Not to crap all over this beautiful rom, but if anyone would like the original icons back, ie: the gray bars, 4g, bluetooth etc (no more bright green) you can easily change them.

I grabbed this from embryo 5.4 topic but can confirm it works with no problem.

1. download the file below

2. download rom toolbox lite from the market

3. open rom toolbox, go to the interface tab

4. select status bar icons

5. select pick theme at the bottom, and select the theme file you downloaded below (leave it as a zip, just drop it on your sd card)

6. let the program do the rest, reboot the phone.. tadah - old original icons back. the only thing it won't change is the battery unless you buy the rom toolbox.

Hope this helps some folks :)

But do this^^^^^^^at ur own risk. Don't do this and then start complaining about freezes reboots and fc's. As it was stated in op. Not recommended to get "fancy"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] st0nez0r:
I'm not really sure why everyone feels the need to say "at your own risk" for every little thing around here. Of course, everything we do on our phones are at our own risk.

Anyway, It's working for me. It's been running just fine, with the replaced icons since I did it.

Of course, if you don't wanna do it, then don't - I simply tried to be helpful in case anyone wanted something other than the green.

The reasons being is that people don't know what there doing or don't pay attention and then they complain it's not working when really its what they did.

Personally I have learned from trial and error when I run a rom I don't make changes to know it works because then I know of I screw something up its not the devs fault...

Personally though I'm happy when folks bring new stuff to the table (or old stuff like the 5.4 icons) because I like to customize my phone. For the most part I leave Mohans stuff alone because it just works but with Nandroid I am just 4 minutes away from having my phone back if something I installed fubars things. If more folks would simply get a solid baseline rom and then make (and use) a nandroid there would be a lot less complaining. I always know when I broke something but nandroid is my friend.

I actually agree with you, and my original reply to you was more rhetorical than anything else.
