I understand now! I was under the impression he had edited his APN. Looking back over his posts i see he never said that.

Since we are on the subject, I've always wondered why this (or any other ROM with the exception of Cooked ROM) never has the correct apn for the straight talk s2. I know the ID is different but it IS an i-777, albeit a weird cousin, yet the APN for it is never included in the list. The straight talk APN that's always there is the generic one they use for all AT&T phones that get switched over from AT&T to straight talk.

Edit: ...and just to be clear, it was not me who was having the data problem. I was just offering a suggestion under the premise he had already followed op instructions to the t like everyone else does before they post a problem

Great info there buddy. Thank you so much. Had not noticed the 2nd post with all these details. Going to try this out soon. Seems like there are three good KK ROMs out there. Need to test out all of them perhaps to see which one is the most stable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jackal2001:
No need to test. This is the best ROM. At least for what I use everything works great except the browser resizing but that is across all ROMs.

one last question. Do I need to flash Render's Kernel with this ROM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jackal2001:
No. People only try other kernels if they want to tweak or other reasons. Kernel that is included with this ROM works great.

I am having a problem here.

I flashed the file SGH-i777 CWM_v6.0.4.5.zip and it got installed successfully. It returned the messages:

------

Finding update package...

opening update package...

Installing update...

SGH-I&& CWM v6.0.4.5

FLashing recovery

Please reboot-REcovery

Install from sdcard complete.

------

However, after I rebooted into recovery again right after flashing the above recovery my CWM still shows as CWM-based Recovery v6.0.3.2.

I did it thrice and still showing the same. Something wrong? I used the file in post 2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] royahaun:
By chance do you have the Sgh-S959G? Did you flash your last recovery with ROM Manager ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] coolmalayalee:
NO. Mine is SGH-i777. Last time I flashed my CWM recovery was long long ago.. I have long been on custom ROMs and never had to flash the recovery for a very long time. Been on Task's AOKP ROM last. But, I can confirm that I never used ROM manager before.

I even cross checked the md5sum of the downloaded file. It matches.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] razen_kain:
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but you should be able to just flash renderbroken's cm 11 kernel to give you the correct recovery and then install aocp 7 (after rebooting recovery) to have the kernel included with this ROM

Sent from my SGH-S959G
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] coolmalayalee:
Anyways, my problem got solved.. I downloaded the recovery zip file from galaxys2root. com / cwmtwrp-recovery

and was able to flash it without any problem. I've got the correct recovery now and am now flashing the ROM. Thanks for the help.

I used the file CWM-KitKatCompatible-i777 from that site. Could it be that the recovery zip in post2 is wrong?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] razen_kain:
The best way to say thanks is to click thanks on the post that helped you.

And seeing as you're the only one who's had any problem with the recovery zip, is probably have to say, "no"

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wolftou:
Actually, if you look back to page 65, myself and lingarajug, couldn't flash CWM like everyone else, also. I had to do it through ODIN with the file from galaxys2root. So maybe not "all" i777 are the same, that's all.

Themes

I've been able to flash the ROM successfully. So far no complaints... I did not flash render's kernel. Will do it only if I see an instabilities with the existing kernel.

In the second post there is a link on Theme Land: which leads to a set of CM 10 themes. Has anyone tried to install those on this ROM? WIll the CM10.x themes work well with CM11?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Some themes do not change keyboards. Look for newer source ones and look our AoCP themes up in Store.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] goodjuju:
I am about to install AoCP 7, upgrading from AoCP 6.4. Would someone kindly please confirm if the following sequence is correct -

1. Clean Kernel

2. Install new kernel

3. Wipe data/factory reset

4. Wipe Dalvik

5. Install AoCP 7

6. Install new KK Gapps

Alternately, instead of steps 3 and 4 use Cook's ROM wipe.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wolftou:
You don't need new kernel, you need new CWM Recovery (check OP). And add "Format System" after Wipe Dalvik.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
COOK's ROM Wipe Script also formats the system.

Updated to AocP 7.0 from 6.4. Several questions.

This launcher is different from Aspire -

1. Where do I change the number of screens?

2. Change gris size?

3. Hide icon names?

4. How do I hide Google search bar?

Also, Change widget size? Pinching is not working, long tap is not showing the borders

Propmodder is not allowing changes even though superuser is granted to setting - wifi scan interval, Phone ringer delay, proximity sensor delay,, navigation bar.

Finally how do I rollback to AoCP 6.4? Installation is failing. Tried to roll back CWM it is not working either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wolftou:
Hmm, as far as Aspire, if you can't find them in settings they're probably not there. I don't use that so sorry, can't help. But I doubt it is that hard to find all the settings for Aspire if they're there.

For propmodder, try to install supersu and update the su binary see that would help.

If CWM is failing to restore nandroid (I think this happened to me, also) try to reflash the older CWM through ODIN to see if it works.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
JuJu............Read Post 1!

If you read everything you would have your answers. Except for hide g search.

As far as Aspire... goto their thread or help in the app under settings.

You need to read for now on or you will have a paperweight. So before you lose the G-Search bar...maybe use it. :D

we're still working on Aspire, it is launcher2 for the moment, I would highly recommend Nova launcher for now until Aspire is working....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveO390:
So, I got this installed a couple of days ago and I'd just like to share my experience thus far.

First, installing it was a slight pain only because I couldn't get the 6.0.4.4 CWM to install with the .zip in the OP. I had to pull it from the second post that had the link with the Odin flashable file and another CWM flashable. For some reason that .zip worked, go figure.

Second, function... This ROM works like a champ! My only complaints are the same for all AOSP ROM's. One is the fact that photosphere doesn't come in the packaged camera. Kinda stinks but that's why I have a copy of the GPe camera/gallery .apk. Two is the fact that picassa doesn't sync. I have all my pictures set to back up to Google+ so the inability to see them in the gallery is kind of annoying but it's no biggie since the new photos app is now part of KitKat I can easily see them through that app. The big surprise to me was that Netflix works without needing to use an Xposed module! Now, this is the first KK ROM I've tried on this phone but every JB ROM I've used from the official CM 10.1.3 stable to AOKP has needed this mod to make Netflix work. Are you guys just that s#!t hot that you've managed to get Netflix working when no one else could or is there something different about KK that fixes the problem?

Anyway, good job guys. Many thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Hey Steve.... It's working on my end. Under account sync (google) is pic sync checked? You Do full factory wipe as posted? If not please do (do not have to do recovery flash again) and reflash.

If did.. Please download rom&gapps again clear dalvic and cach and format system then flash again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveO390:
Well hell, I didn't even look for that setting. I just assumed...

All good now! The only thing now, which I really hate to even mention because it's purely subjective but..... Is there a theme that changes the color of the battery and unlock icon? I've tried several and I really would like just complete Android vanilla look. I've tried Icee2 and think it's about the most complete, to a fault actually, I don't really want things like the Netflix icon changed to blue as well while not changing the battery icon color. Again, if there's nothing then there's nothing. This is this most fully functioning AOSP ROM I've ever used, I'm not going to change because I don't care for the color. Thanks Molon Labe!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jackal2001:
I was hoping for a stock look as well. I think there was a AOCP 6.4u or something like that which was the stock look.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ruger94:
It's a tad bit early for 4.4.2 themes to be updated...may have a few out on the PlayStore(it's going to be a while for ours to be updated...we're still working on the ROM itself)...battery icon is customizable from Settings/Personalize/Status bar...just for info...stock has a lot of white in place of blue in stock colors...ie: CM's ROM...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveO390:
I thought it might be early still for theme's but I was just poking about to see what I could find and haven't cared for much of what I've found so I thought I'd ask. I'm not big on themes personally. I'll look into the settings deeper and see what I can change before I look for another theme, meanwhile it's clear that you guys have your priorities straight so I hope you don't take this as pressure to shift your focus from the nuts and bolts of this ROM to worry about getting themes out. When you get to themes you get to 'em, I ain't sweatin' it. :cowboy::good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] razen_kain:

Thank you AoCP team and XDA

Thank you A0CP team for keeping S2 i777 alive!

I was hold out too long, and finally decide to update to KitKat about 30min ago. Gotta little scare when I could not get cwm 6.0.4.5 to stick. I could not risk to get out of recovery mode, so I went back to first post to read again. That took me to the other site for odin file. Download both theirs version, but still not comfortable to try odin. I read on, it said about latest cm10.2 would also has cwm 6.0.4.5 included. I went back to my phone to check my sd card, and there it was cm10.2, "Lucky me." I flashed and rebooted it back to recovery. Everything was good from that point.

After flashed rom then gapps, rebooted. Got another scare when it sat at AoCP screen for awhile :)...

I went through all set up and was able to make a test call(no longer with ATT) so that was my highlight :) I was afraid that I would lost the unlock that I did with jellybean. Wifi, texting, and phone are working great

Thanks again, Awsome job.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] coolmalayalee:
I was on the same boat as well. I liked this ROM quite well, but cant make myself like the colors. But now, I am using the "BetterKat CM11 Theme BLue" and is getting a closer to vanila look of KK.

Trick for flash new recovery!

Now that you flashed new Recovery... Reboot phone and as its booting (vol +/- plus power) to put back into recovery! Then will be on new.

This works!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
Or just go to advanced and click reboot recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
No!!! Do NOT do!!!!!

Reboot phone and do as I said. Not same. By booting its setting it up....then catch it before it actually boots.

Azeem...do you not think I know where reboot into recovery is?? Silly boy.:p

[shrugs shoulders] meh, whatev's. I'm stoked you guys put together such a stellar ROM for this device. Just looking for a theme that basically de-theme's it. I haven't found one I like yet.

If I may humbly make a suggestion that when you guys eventually get around to updating your themes on the Play Store, could you make a basically vanilla Android theme?

Well I finally got this thing up and running and as usual...another great ROM from you guys! I had been on 6.2 for months, mainly because of it's total compatibility with Viper4Android, (after an upgrade to the Note last year my S2 is now the best media player ever made). Even after flashing two different copies of CWM 6.0.4.5 and renders' CM11 kernel, I was still getting the dreaded "status 7" error. So I opened the updater script in Notepad++ and just deleted the entire .getprop and it finally flashed! As for themeing; I like it just fine...that's what separates AOCP from the other ROMs! Thanks again for keeping us up to date with the latest and greatest. Just want to add that the new static and live wallpapers are sweet! You guys rock!

It has been a week since installation of this ROM and my phone has stabilized pretty much. Battery life has been terrific. Over the night, while idle, it only consumes around 3 to 4%. Pretty much everything that I use on a daily basis is now functioning without any issues. A big thanks to the AoCP team for making our old phones wonderful... I don't feel like even looking for a new phone as I don't see anything that I am missing in this phone compared to some new phones.

Is there any way to schedule the profiles in this ROM without using paid apps like Tasker or automagic? I just need to define certain times for each profile and want the phone to switch to it automatically.

Edit: After I posted this, today I noticed one issue. My GPS is not locating my current location accurately. It is not locking the location too well either. Sometimes it locks and again goes off. As a result the navigation is not working proper. I live in India. BTW, while I was using Task's ROM before, GPS was working absolutely wonderful.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] david72262:
Since going back to the default kernel no random freezes or reboots or anything really stable only issue is front camera video and that is on both kit kat ROMs. Only 1% battery drain last night on night profile loving this ROM high praises to developers!

Task who? Dont matter. Anyway just looked him up...this is not a AOKP. We are CM based. I have no issues with gps nor have had any complaints. But I always use APK below.... its just great and used for years.
