So, I'm on PACMAN 4.2, milestone 1 build, and received a notification today from goo stating that there was an update for my gapps. I assumed it would be the one from July pulled from the 4.3 update that have been floating around but, when I went to update, it was named gapps-jb-20130812-signed.zip. I assume that these are still only for 4.3, but I found a few posts for cm 10.1 which steered people towards this zip so I thought I'd have one of you fine folks confirm for me.

Edit: nevermind, I have confirmed through a deeper search that they are, indeed, built for 4.2.2. There is another flashable zip built for 4.3 dated 20130813.

((Posted this in the Q/A but didn't get a response))

As you may know. T-mobile is the first carrier offering support for HD audio and I'm stoked. Only within certain high end phones though.

Question is can we get HD audio on the skyrocket since it can run on T-mobile 4G and I believe only a codec is necessary? Any other limitations?

***seems audio codec AMR-WB is necessary. anyway to get around that codec? could a software update do it? an awesome XDA app maybe?

Hello..have a problem with my network and data signal on one of my Skyrockets. I was on Slimbean build 8 and started out of nowhere losing data signal then network signal. I was using the correct radio...Ucmc1. I decided to wipe the phone of everything and I Odin back to stock Uclf6. Still about every 5 minutes I am losing data and network. I used kies to update to Jb 4.1.2 Ucmc1 and the problem persists. I then flashed just about every 4.2.2 rom using the corect radio Ucmc1 on everything after 4/24 and still the same problem. I flashed roms before 4/24 and tried all the radios available still the same problem. I put my sim card in another skyrocket and a few other devices and it works fine. Anyone ever have this problem or can think of a way to fix it? I tried everything I can think of including taking it to At&t and having them do a reset. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

phone freezing

Hi folks.

I've been trying to use the search function and can't find this. My Skyrocket is rooted and I have ics. My phone keeps locking up and freezing. I restart, reboot, remove and replace battery and sim card. It works for a bit then back to freezing and locking. At least 1 of these actions and usually most of them 3 or 4 times per day. Now when I go to plug it in to charge, it's not recognizing action unless I restart it.

Any suggestions on what I can do.

Thanx for ur prompt reply.

that link is dead. It said lto contact administrator. Is there a video or step by step on how to do this? I tried flashing a Rom (jelly bam.) A while back and soft bricked my phone, but was able to restore it,* thank God.* I got on here and asked a simple question prefaced by: I searched thru 100 pages looking for this answer,* do I hafta have phone hooked to my puter to flash.* I got a 3 paragraph dissertation on basically what an idiot I was because I was asking such a stupid question.* With all the time he spent blustering,* he could've given me the answer or at least given me the link for the answer. Ever since then,* I've been kinda gun shy to do anything.

The phone was doing this a while back and I just went in to Rom Manager and restored it to an earlier back up time, like January, which was a surprise to me cuz I thought Titanium did regular back ups, and of course* I lost all my stuff since then, but at least it was working more smoothly.

Then I did a back up.

I know the Skyrocket is kinda old, but I'm on the austerity program, a new phone isn't in the budget at this time. I read somewhere that it came out in 2011. Not sure if that's true,* but if so, that's only a couple yrs. But I guess that's is like what, double dog/cat years for a phone?

Thanx again for ur help for this hepless blonde newbie. Btw, I didn't root the phone or put ics myself. Some one did it for me, but he doesn't have the time to help me with this. I love having my phone rooted even tho bcuz of lack of knowledge I don't take as good of advantage of it as I'd like, I can still undo updates if I don't like them and some other things I couldn't do if I weren't rooted. It's funny, according to all u guys, I'm a real dummy with all this stuff, but all my gal pals think I'm some sort of geeky genius. But I know only enuf to be dangerous and I don't want to mess anything up, so I err on the side of caution.

Noob question regarding mobile data

I recently bought a fully-functional Skyrocket (NTT Docomo i727) and decided to root and install custom roms in it.

First rom I tried was CM10.1 RC2 but noticed that mobile data couldn't connect for some reason - I could use the call/sms functions of the phone but couldn't connect to my network's mobile data even after putting the correct APN's.

So I tried using stock AT&T then Rogers official roms from GB, ICS, then JB through Odin but stll had mobile data problems - got worse because I couldn't access the mobile data settings for some reason.

Then I decided to install MIUI v5 rom - mobile data now works but only up to H+ speeds. It would be great to get LTE though.

My question now is: "How could I use CM10.2 (4.3) and get mobile data working?"

*already tried installing the Hellybean (4.3) rom - but again got slapped with no mobile data - so for now I reverted to MIUI v5.

Any help would be appreciated guys.

TIA!

First check your apn's and see if there are several. If there are try using another one. Next: test different radios. Third: consult your operator about LTE and your phone. Ask them what LTE frequencies they use, the skyrocket uses these by default "LTE 700 MHz Class 17. 1700 / 2100 MHz".

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] car vs driver:
Well, as long as you're installing the same version of the ROM you currently have, you technically shouldn't have to wipe data. I don't have much experience with the stock roms to say for certain, but there's really only one way to find out. Make a backup, then flash it and see.

Honestly though, if you encounter problems down the road it may be difficult to tell if it's because you didn't wipe the device first or if there's actually a problem with the ROM.

But ... when changing versions, the answer is no - you absolutely have to wipe data and factory reset before flashing the new ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Samkitpalecha:
I think you are wrong ! When switching from CM10 to Slimbean or to any aosp, you don't need to wipe data! We can just format system and it will do! But I also have very less experience with stock roms thats why I am asking! According to me it wipes data by itself! No idea about deodexed

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] car vs driver:
Technically ... all the ones you mentioned above are based on AOSP and/or CM10 and are just about interchangeable outside of some theming and features/framework chagnes. And as I said, if you aren't switching VERSIONS you shouldn't have a problem. When you switch VERSIONS amongst those, then you'll experience issues. But like I said, even then it isn't necessarily compatible and could create underlying problems that impair your user experience in the future ...

Stock ROMS, as vincom noted, are a different story anyway.

Is there a chance you might have a backup of the factory firmware? Do you know what firmware originally came with your phone? I'm curious because you have such an obscure operator.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hspopoy:
Sadly (as noobs like me tend to overlook) I didn't backup the original firmware my Skyrocket came with. :(

But as far as I could recall, it was a GB Rogers firmware modded by NTT Docomo.

Already tried flashing that firmware from Sammobile but it didn't resolve any of my "mobile data" problem.

*found a thread on the Note 2 forums which is similar to mine - AT&T/Rogers unlocked phones tend to have this problem here in the Philippines. Good thing those guys at the Note 2 forum found a way to solve this by flashing a local firmware for their devices (Globe). Sad to say Globe never released Skyrocket so I guess I'll have to use MIUI v5 ported rom for now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lingowistico:
Check with your operator for details on data and also try all of the modems in the 1stop sticky.

On the other hand it's obviously not a modem issue since MIUI doesn't come with one of it's own.

It probably just chooses a different APN by default.

So I'd guess it has something to do with APN's.

Kit Kat 4.4 on Skyrocket i727

I have read quite a bit on Kit Kat being good for older phones (like my Skyrocket i727) due to low memory requirements. I am going to have my cousin (who rooted his S3 on sprint) help me root my recently unlocked phone and install one of the new versions of android like 4.3. Right now my phone is all stock ATT (4.1.2) but its unlocked and Im happily on T mob LTE (no issues so far for me)

So my question is as I am very new to this should I just install Android 4.3 and then wait until more bugs out of 4.4. I was reading the team chopsticks home page on CM11.0

It seems it takes a while to get the pure Android source code refined for each separate device out there. The problem is that the phone is getting slow over time and I was thinking the 4.4 might solve more problems than it creates

I do find it ironic however than google wants 4.4 on "older" slower phones but how will that happen? Carriers surely will not push it out to folks like me especially now that I am on a phone that t mob does not officially support
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
I think Google is trying to narrow how many versions are out there. Always been a jab by Apple fanboys. If they start making code that works great for older phones, the OS won't be so fragmented.

BTW- CM11 is working great. A few bugs, yes... But TC is great at ironing out bugs as quickly as possible...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] swh skyrocket:
Excuse my ignorance but you have to run CM 11.0 to run CM's "flavor" or version of 4.4 kit kat? Im sort of getting all this lingo now (kernel vs rom etc) Its like little PC's with much more complex or compact OS's and Bios's

Due to the skyrockets age it does not look like too many groups are trying to "adapt" 4.4 to the skyrocket

its a pity that older phones ("ancient" phones from 2011) are not going to be able to get 4.4 unless they enter the "underworld" or rooting/flashing etc which i suspect is done by less than 5% for all handset owners. Personally I think upgrading your OS is much wiser then spending 600+ for a new device with yet more cr_pware on it from Samsung and ATT and sending the old one to the landfill

As far as I see it what you guys are doing is the future. Its just needs to get simpler. This "brick" your phone thing is very scary for noobs

Its why I am having someone walk me thru this that has done this on an s3 before many times

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] TheCybertronian:
1. Yes Cm11 or CyanogenMod 11 is cyanogenmod's version of kit kat.

2. These are nothing more than small semi power efficient computers.

3. As far as the numbers can show it's actually somewhere in the 1% to 2% range.

4. Kit kat being designed for lower powered devices wasn't for the sake of older phones but for a more affordable set of phones worldwide. In the US we tend to be more power hungry, elsewhere it's often a different case.

What would cause my phone to be laggy for anywhere from 10 to 30 seconds or so after turning the screen on? Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. It usually clears up after a couple of seconds, and if I use my phone for extended periods of time it's buttery smooth, but sometimes those first 10 or 20 of seconds after wake-up can be brutal. I've tried deleting apps I don't need, I've tried using an Xposed module to limit startup applications, but it still happens.

It might be something specific to my ROM. I'm running Carbon Nightlies, I'm on the Nov 15th nightly. However, no on in the official Carbon Skyrocket thread seems to be complaining about it and it's a pretty widely used ROM, so I don't know... I can say I don't remember this happening in CM10.1, which is what I was on before.

Anyone else experience anything like this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Bleedos:
I've been on different nightly versions of Carbon from july to first week of november. Then I switched to LiquidSmooth for a week and ended using CM11 Alpha1 and Alpha2 after that. I'm on CM11 alpha 2 right now.

I experienced what you described on LiquidSmooth. Like you, I noticed no one was complaining about it. I ended up searching for a different rom.

I also remember that with Carbon, sometimes it would be long to wake the phone (black screen). I don't know if it's related.

On CM11 Alpha 2, I had the same black screen problem. Someone told me to switch the governor to "On demand" and the problem went away. Maybe it can help you.

I was using Mr. Number and Current Caller ID (sticking with just Current now).

Also, it's great hearing 4.4 is moving along for the Skyrocket. :good:
